The trouble with many people is not that they have so little to give bnt that they are so unwilling to give that little. Teddy has at last taken, to the au tomobile, and we- would advise all bis neighbors to take.the endurance test on locg jumning at once. New York's Chinatown is passing through another tong war, and there i ? is no telling how many of the Chinks will be put out of -the way before it is over. Congressmen are now at home de voting time for which Uncle Sam pays them handsomely persuading the old gentleman to hire them for another two years. The best seats at Reno to see Jef fries and Johnsen hammer each oth er sold for fifty dollars. This Is big price, but the savage in "man will crop out regardless of cost. Teddy and Big Bill met on Thurs day at Beverly, and they both live, to the surprise of a great many peo ple, who seems to have thought that such a thing was impossible. It is said that Teddy is opposed to putting Governor Hughes on the Su preme Court Bench. He does, not believe in pigeon holding such an expert politician as Hughes has ?proven himself to be. 1 Four' hundred and twenty-seven banks in the States of Missouri, Ne braska, Kansas and Iowa say $15, 000,000 has been spent for automo biles in their neighborhood) That is what we call speeding it some. Thomas R.. .Allerton. regarded by many as the richest man in Chicago, has, at the age of eighty-two, relin quished his allegiance to the Repub lican party and joined the Demo crats. Took him a long time to-see the light. Iu the face of what happened to that Zeppelin .air. ship last week, this getting up so high that the biggest tree looks like a feather duster ap peals less and less to us. But the air ships, like the automobiles, are here to stay. .Nearly sixty thousand teachers will assemble in Boston this week. Boston was once noted as a great -centre for books.: and icebergs, but now is is noted for always having a base ball team at the foot of one of the .big leagues. "Dewhiskered Populism" is what The New York Globe calls Mr. Wil liam R. Hearst's proposed new third party. Mr. Hearst would, of course, use it principally for trading pur poses, as he.used his Independence League- during its brief career and ?as whiskered Popularism was also used while alive. The death of John W. Daniel re moves from the United States Sen ate one of its most distinguished -members and from the State of Vir ginia one of its leading citizens. For a quarter of a century Senator Dan iel has represented his Common wealth with ability in the nation's highest legislative body. Joseph C. Sibley, Republican nom inee for congress in Pennsylvania, says that his renomination cost him $40.698.83. Mr. Sibley received 10,460 votes -and the Now York World points out that each vote rep resented an expenditure of nearly $4." This shows the need of pub licity of campaign contributions. John Dalzell, Mr. Cannon's chief lieutenant, was rehominated by the small plurality of 402. In one oth er Pennsylvania district Alfred 1). Garner, another Cannonite congress num. whs defeated by an insurgent republican. If Pennsylvania will not "stand pat" surely the old ship is leaking now, says The Commoner. Religion does not consist in sing ing hymns and offering prayers, but in character and service. Hymns and prayers are aids unquestionably but unless accompanied or followed by the steady, practical spade work of every day life they amount to but little. It is the "inasmuch as ye have done it." that counts with God and man. The Sumter Herald says: "We ?cannot understand how any jury of intelligent men could have rendered 'A verdict such as was recently given at Darlington in the case of the al leged mpist from Harts vi lie. If thy <,egro was guilty of one of the most heinous crimes that could be com mitted. We do hot see how a man who respects the honor of the wo men of the South could have agreed to a compromise verdict in a case like this." The Herald is not the only one perplexed about this ver dict. , Outlook Very Bright. The .National Monthly, edited by Democratic National Chairman Nor man E. Mack, bases the confident ex pectation of a Democratic House of Representatives upon these three reasons: "First, betrayal of the peo ple in the pledge of the Republican party of an honest downward revis ion of the tariff, second, the oppres . sively high cost of the necessities of I life, due in large measure to the pro j fligacy and privileges of the Repub ?liccn. a -ministration; third, the cou tiol- of legislative bodies through corruption, direct or indirect, ano typified in what the country knows as 'Cannonism.' " It is also noted thr.t Democratic Governors in great debatable States?Harmon in Ohio, Marshall in Indiana, and Shallen j>erger !in Nebraska?have greatly added to their own and their party's prestige, while, with the exception of Governor Hughes (who has sp?t his party almost hopelessly) Repub lican Governors have done just the reverse. The National Monthly pre dicts - Governor Harmon's trium phant re-election .by one hundred thousand plurality. In the current issue of the Sat urday Evening Post Mr. Samuel G. Blythe, staff political writer, whose latest task has been to review con ditions in Ohio and Indiana?with entire freedom from partlzanship, of course?declares Governor Har mon's re-election this fall to be al most a foregone conclusion. He finds a Harmon victory virtually conced ed on every hand. Two years ago Harmon recei ved 19,372. p 1 u ral ity where the Republican ticket receiv ed 69,391. Such a result was 'suffi ciently remarkable in itself, though not without parallel by any means. But Governor Harmon, if re-elected this fall according to general expec tation, will have followed up his vic tory with exceptionally ? inportant results. He has confirmed and grea'" "y increased the i(Tiv.tiou and tsieeni in which the people of Ohio .ho'td him. He has -been a Governo'' of the very best sort, purgin.; State in stitutions of graft and mismanage ment'while at che same time es chewing all partisanship whiou was uncalled-for. Under his administration- Demo crats have become thoroughly unit ed, while Republicans ba.vs beoor.ic split wide open. Not averse to legi timate politics, he is none the ley a man of the most transparent hon esty and sincerity. Few public men have possessed a more pleasing per sonality: his simple and natural dig nity, combined with a very warm heart, needs neither demagogy no. frills. Uncle Jud Harmon is now 64, and after having been a judge, an Attorney General of .the United States and a Governor, frankly wants to be Fresident Mr. ?iythe, while recognizing thai any political situa tion 'may change overnight, knows no other man half so likely to re ceive the Democratic presidential nomination. It is a far cry to 1912 but as the Charlotte Observer says certainly the Democrats have seldon had more cause for encouragement at a similar period. As regards the House of Representatives electee this fall, their hopes are, and witt reason, extremely strong. Where Is the Trouble? .No more startling. statement wai made at the recent world's S.un day school convention than that o: Eugent C. Foster . of Detroit, thai seventy-five per cent of all tht boys over thirteen years old in the Protestant Sunday schools. of the United States are lost to the church and never make profession of faith To the English delegates this wai especially astounding, one of them claiming that in England they did not lose more than three per cent. We are inclined to think the En glishman's enthusiasm for his own land carried him away in his es timate. But the declaration of Mr. Foster, .concurred in by all his fellow-delegates, deserves examina tion. Of Mr. Foster it should be said that he is an experienced worker with boys, a regular contributor up on work with boys for the Sunday School Times, and that his calcula tion was made after study, abserva tion and experience. Being true, it proves there is something lacking i'i the methods of our Sunday schools and churches. That it is wiser to hold on to boys rather than surfer them to slip away from the church and then later to try to reclaim them, must be pa tent to all. But somehow the Sun day schools hi ve not proven equal to the tast. He v far short they have fallen would appear from comparing, in any city district or small commun ity, the public school enrollment with that of the Sunday school. But the churches cannot be expected to work wonders. in justice to the church, as Les lie's Weekly points out. it should i,e said that the original failure iies back of it, with the home and the parents. Can we expect the churun to do what the home miserably fails ro accomplish'.' In many a home parental control or even guidance is a lost art. Children no longer obey their parents or consult anybody's wishes but their own. The changed relations of parent and child must bear a part of the blame that is or dinarily put altogether upon the church. Contest for Health. A new-typhoid vaccine is report ed to have been discovered by a French physician. Dr. Vincent, whose experiments, first with animals and inter with a number of human pa tients, have been deeply encourag ing. His vaccine is prepared simply by steeping typhoid bacilli in a so lution of salt water with a mixture of et Jut. The Atlanta Journal says that this treatment. If sustained by re sultts will rank as one of the truly great discoveries of the time. Amer ican doctors will be especially in terested. For there is mare .typhoid in the United States than in any country in the world. T.he health commissioner of New York reported one thousand, three hundred deaths from typhoid in that state alone dur ing the year 1909. There now appear no reason to doubt that eventually every com municable disease will .be made pre ventable and perhaps curable as knowledge of bacteriology increases aud is perfected. It has been truly said that the-work of- Pasteur and Robert Koch in developing science has changed the practice of medicine from a fight in almost dark to a struggle in the growing light. Much of the success that has been achieved in the fight against con sumption is due to Koch's discovery in 1882 of the bacillus of tuberculo sis. Fresh air, sunlight and proper food axe to be sure the most effica cious remedies, but the value of tu berculin in diagnosing is almost in calcnable. In like manner civilized countries have all but. exterminated Asiatic cholera, formerly one of the most dreaded and apparently hope ess infections. So, too, have small oox and other plagues against which man was once all but helpless been checked. In time they will be de stroyed from the earth. Indeed, there may come a day w-hen a sick man will be exhibited under a tent as a curiosity. CI?SSIFIED COiUMN One-half Gent a Worl Found Notices Free. For Sale?Registered setter pups.

She had been suffer ing for some time from a .general breakdown. For near three months she was confined to her bed. Al though the death had been expected, still the blow was keenly felt by all who knew her. She was in. her 74th year. She united with the Jericho M. E. Church while young, of which she was a consistent member until several years ago she moved with her children into the Providence sec tion. Afterwards transfering her membership to Providence M. R. church which church she remained until her death. She was known of. all as one who loved and served her Lord and as one who never tired in doing his will. For ner death was indeed gain as she had her full share of suffering and sorrow while wait ing for the day of her '?edemption. Her absence is deeply felt in our .home and the homes of her children who were devoted to her. They did everything that could be done to keep her a little longer. Hut God knew best. She left seven children, five daughters and two sons, and j many grand-children, one sister, four >rothers and a lot of relatives and friends to mourn her death. Her >ody was laid to rest in the ceme ary at Jericho church beside her husband. Gone but not forgotten. May your soul sleep the blessed sleep until we j meet in. Heaven again. Your sis er. S. J.
