Woman's I Rank By REV. H. OSTROM, D. D. :| Bxtenvlon Department, Moo?jr . Blblo Instituto, Chicago. \ TBJCT-Womon received their dead miso a to life again.-Heb. 11:35. Why Bhculd lt rond "women" ta stend of "men"? Does death mean moro to women then to menT Would women np proclnte the rais ing of the dead to life more than men? And why say "their dead"? A young school t e n c h o r hud thought thnt the Blblo gave wom an n kind of sec ond-rate pince. But no ; for while the Bible tenches that wives should be In subjection to their husbands, lt nlso tenches thnt Christians should encli be subject to one another. In some realms tho Blblo rates man as superior to woman. When the ques tion arises ns to who should say the deciding word on a debated subjeetr in tho church lt does not leave us'nt sen. Blither man or woman must be glveu the obligation, and tho Bible gives lt to the man. In the Christinn program woman must not teach or usurp au thority over tho man. There ls over here tho obligation placed upon the man lo be the bearer of the brunt of the battle and to protect the woman. But now, bas woman n supremacy in some other realms? Hus she. through the exercise of a meek and quiet spirit, a power far mightier thnn If she were to usurp authority over the mun? Surely. Thus it Is that woman ls on ninny pages of the Bible mentioned with emphasis. Consider the narrative In the First Book of Kings concerning the dead child whom Elijah restored to Ufo ns God enabled bim. Mention ls made there that the child's mother was n "widow. And our Lord Jesus, when mentioning this incident, speaks of "mnny'widows." But be never speaks of many widowers. The account in the Second Book of Kings' about thc Shunnnmlte's son is written with the same notable em phasis upon the woman, for lt rends that be, having fallen sick in tho field, his father had him curried to his mother. This child died. Briaba raised bim to life; and forthwith he calls fco the child's mother, of whom lt ls stated that she "took up her son and went out." Consider our Lord Jesus, though he addresses his mother ns f'woman," when she must more deeply learn of Ills Deity, yet when on the cross He cpmmonds her to John ns "mother." Ah, yes, if you search your Bible through you will see that there ls no disparaging of one sex in contrast With the other. But sin ls here. And while ono sinned earlier than the oth er, both wore sinners. As a conse quence all have sinned, hence both women und mon must find their stand ing Iii relation to this fact. And who could lind any place for contondlng for his own superiority here? Here, evidently tho woman would contend that the superiority ls applicable to the man, saying that sho ls the chief of sinners; while the man would contend that such rank should be rtccordcd to the woman, Insisting that be ls the chief of sinners. All of which only serves to more clearly disclose tho fact that much de bate and contention may attend re forms, which Will utterly die out when we declare for regeneration. Indeed, questions which will not submit to j solution through reform prove to have been ul rea dy solved when those con- ! Eldering them have been really born again. Reform methods may Imprison tho criminal, but they cannot subdue the criminality in his heart. Regen eration makes the criminal a saint. There ls a refinement which appears even In the matter of the sexes which only the accepted grace of God can make possible. Mothers' day appeals to us strongly, but If Mothers' day means only a bracing up of sentiment to the accompaniment of malling post al cards and Howers, then refined Christian mattiers would scorn lt. It must bo characterized by thnt refine ment which the new birth Imparts to the meaning of the word mother; then the Christian mother will be strength ened In the faith, heartened In prayer and pacified in tho conflict because of the day. Sin brought to humanity disagree ment and discord, and lt has sadly prevailed oven muong tho sexes. Grace is tho one and only cure for both man nnd womhn. When grace ls accepted tbero follows In Its train a series of ennobling and refining Influences which assures between man und wom an and between parents and children and between employers and servants ! of either sex a custom of "doing good j unto all". But lt nil rests upon Christian faith rathor than upon cultured courtesy, Through faith "women received their d'end raised to life again." And lt Is through faith that men become eager to declare: "Help those women which labored with mo in thc Gospel." i Mind Your Own Business.

C., It.F.D. No. 1, furnishes an other very striking illustration of tho value of Tanlac to persons suffer ing from a run-down condition. While in Gastonia the other day Mr. Bigger made tho following state ment: "When I started taking Tanlac I had been laid up with typhoid and malaria fovor, which left me In mighty bad shape. My stomach was so out of gear (hat nothing agreed with mo. My nerves wore all un strung, and I was so run down that I simply wasn't worth a nickel so far as work was concornod. I was troubled with gas on my stomach and had such bad dizzy spoils that I could nattily stand up. "I took six bottles of Tanlac in all, but I commenced to feel Uko a now man beforo tho second bottlo was gone. My stomach misery, diz ziness and nervousness bas left mo entirely. I "sleop like n log al night and feel as strong and well as 1 pver did. I've put a number of my frionds on to Tanlac, and if* bas helped them Jhst like it did me.

London, Sept. 28.-British gov ernment circles to-day took a gravo view ol' tho situation in the Darda nelles, which was regarded as so critical as to overshadow the revolu tionary developments in Greece. The opinion was expressed that there ls a greater prospect of lighting ' be tween tho British and Turkish Na tionalists than at any tinto previous. The cabinet was convened this morning to consider a message from Brig.-Gon. Sir Charles Harrington, commanding tho Allied forces in Constantinople, summarizing Musta pha Rental Pasha's reply to Gen. Harlngton's warning against viola tion of tho neutral zone along the strait h. . (T\vn views may bo taken of Mus tapha Kemal's intentions, it is stat- ' od. Oae ls that under tho cover of ' his cavalry ho may bo bringing up i artillery and materials and doing all he can to compel the British to lire j tho first shot. The less serious view is that ho is truthful in his state ment that ho does not know where the neutral zono extends. It is pointed out that Gen. Haring ton is laboring under tremendous re sponsibility. Ho has boon told to do all possible to avoid war, but to use his'owe judgment. In his reply Mus tapha Kemal says tho Angora gov- i emmie; .loes not realize any neu tral zone. He complains about Greek warships which have been anchored near Constantinople and also about the a lion of the British troops in .the r gion arbund Chanak on the South (ru snort, of tho straits. Alle gations aro made that tho British have destroyed Turkish roads and Tit i Klftli homos. Mustapha Kemal also claims the iii;' to cross tho so-called neutral /oie and to enter eastern Thrace, where he claims tho Greeks aro kill ing tho Turkish inhabitants, lie concludes by saying that he hopes to avoid any conflict with thc British.

A PAHM10H LOSES, SAYS SMITH, When Ho Sells Cotton at 20 Cents. Costs 24 Cents to Grow. Florence, S. C., Sept. 28.-With middling cotton bringing around 20 cents a pound, the farmer losos $20 to $25 a halo, United States Senator E. D. Smith, of South Carolina, de clared here to-day, lu discussing pro duction co?ts and statistics compiled by tho Department of Agriculture exports. Tho department ligaros, accord ing to Senator Smith, show tho cost of producing ono pound of lint cot ton to ho 22 cents, the averago yield hoing considered 200 pounds'of lint 10 the aero. " Fall to Make Allowance. Assorting that ho did not believe tho average production would run ns high as tho department's estimate I Senator Smith said that no allow ance had boon made In. ibo cost es timates for tho expense, of lighting tho boll weovil, naming tho picking up of punctured squares, extra culti vation and tho uso of poison as Items in these additional costs. Senator Smith expressed the opin ion that'it costs tho Southern farmer from 20 to 21 cents to grow one pound ?ot lint cotton. ( "As middling cotton ls now bring ing around 20 cents a pound," the Senator declared, "the average run of grades for the average farm would bring about 18 cents, so that cotton 11 costing from 20 to 24 cents per pound-a net loss of $20 to $2 5 a bale for the farmer."

So your farm will refuse to grow a paying crop. One of tho greatost objects a farmor should have in view is to build up his soil and innko * it more fertile each year. And this; can be dono in no other way than by diversification, rotation of crops and by sowing leguminous crops, such as peas, velvet beans, bur clover, crim son clover or votch. In tho next 30 days" either bur clovor or crimson clover or vetch should bo sowed. Land cannot bo made rich by haul ing guano to tho farm and putting it on tho land. If this could have boon done, this country would have boon a rich, fertile country. Any farmer in this country can so farm his land as to make a living on it, pay his tn^es and innko his fand, doublo or oven troblo Us production in six yea,rs by using tho proper methods of agriculture, nnd tboro is nothing that will pay .bim a gre.ator profit than to adopt those methods. Working poor land is v?iry expensive. 1 know most of the land Is too poor to grow a leguminous crop, and Ibo land has to bo inoculated before lt. will grow them, and seeds aro e:< pe'nslvo; but I want to.suggoit a sn ny and simplo method so any farmer will bo able to start these legumin ous crops to growing on Iiis farm. Thoy recommend about 15 to 20 pounds of crimson clover seed to bo sowed to tho nero, and lb to 20 poxinds of vetch, sowed broadcast, and 1 hae known a great many who failed to get. a stand. Theso seed cost tnis year about 20 cents a pound and there aro a great many furmora who haven't $5.00 to put out on seeds for ono acre. Now, I want to suggest a little practical and choap way that any farmor can uso to get theso o.rops growing on his farm. I have tried- those methods to got my land Inoculated, and I know that they will do it. ? Theso crops should bo sowod with in tho next thirty days, or they cniR be sown at onco in your corn fields*. or cotton fields. Tako a short gopher plow and run a shallow furrow rv tho mlddlo, fhon fasten a small chain about five feet long to the foot of the plow. Get a small cedar limb nbout 1 Vs foot long and fasten to the other end of the chain. Let it drag tho furrow to cover tho sood.so that tho inoculation bnctoria will not get killod by the sun. You will have to drop theso seed through u "guano funnel. Walk Just behind tho viva who ?opens tho furrow and drop Ibo seed, and tho bush will como along In furrow and cover the seed. By this method three pounds of seed will be enough to sow an acre oC corn land, and 3% pounds enough to sow cotton land with rows tbroo feet wide. You can buy inoculation through this ofllce for 50 couts per aero for less than flvo acres. Over flv6 acres the price is 10 cents por acre. > I prefer vetch to either of tho clo vers, and lt is much easier to get a stand. As stated nhovo, most of tho land is too poor to grow leguminous ' crops. This ls true, but by thia '< mot hod votch sown in rows in Jan ; nary can be fertilized with 50 pounds ? of nit'rato of soda to thb aero, and tho vetch will run all ovor tho land and will make a fine growth, and then your land will bo inoculated for all time to como. ,lf you plant thia samo land In corn, plant In tho vetch rows and see how much bettor corn you moko than where you did not giant the vetch, lt will ho equal to 250 pounds of fertilizer to the nero. You can build your soils to a nigher stato of cultivation under no other system, and under boll weevil conditions you cannot afford to buy guano. Grow your solis rich and you farmers will bo prosporpus. Food your soil with vcgetablo matter and humus and it will food you. * B. Harris, Commissioner.
