Washington, Feb. 11.—Reversing it self in less than eight months, the aenate passed the McNary-Haugcn farm relief bill late today, 47 to 39. Thia measure, will be transmitted to the house tomorrow, and efforts will be made there to substitute it for the companion measure pending since last Wednesday. A final house vote is expected Tues day or Wednesday. f Unless the senate bill, which was loaded down with last minute amend ments, is approved by the house with out change, the logislation must go to conference a nd then run the gaunt let of the legislative jam in the last few days of the session. Favorable action in the house is ex- • peeled by both proponents and oppon ents, but there is uncertainty as to the attitude of President Coolidge. Should he exercise his veto power, the legists tion would be dead for this session, since admittedly neither house could muster the two*thirds majority nec essary to pass it over a veto. • , The Anal day of senate considera tion wa* marked by much uncertainty and numenms private conferences. i>cth inside and outside the chamber with supporters and opponents center ing their efforts om doubtful senators who were regarded as holding the balance t<f power. Before debate was shut off at 4:00 ( p. m., under a previous agreement the galleries were crowded and nearly half the membership of the house was crowded on the senate floir when the voting on amendments got under way. It required neartjr an htrorand-a half to dispose erf the flood of amendments, many of which were prepared in the last hour of console ration in order to gain strength fer the bill. As the voting began those in charge of the bill plainly showed nervousness over the final outcome but a few roll calls amendments removed what ever doubt there had been that the senate would overturn the 45 to .19 vote \yhich it defeated a similar meas ure last June 24th. On the final ballot, nine senators reversed their positions rf last year w r ith Robinsop, of Arkansas, the Demo cratic leader; Broussard and Fansdell, of Louisiana, Fletcher and Trammell, of Florida, Sheppard, of Texas ami Smith of South Carding, all Demo crats, voting for the bill; Heflin cf Ala bama and Overman of North Carolina, both Democrats, vot : ng against it. Twenty-four Republicans, 22 Demo crats and one F^arm-Labor senator ■w .j voted for the bill, while 22 Republi cans and 17 Democrats voted against it. • Previously by a vote of 54 to 32 the senate had rejected the Curtis- Crisp farm bill.

EX' DANGER SIGNALS, • Since my last letter to this pap er, I have seen the announcements of at least five deaths—the victims ranging in age from 51 to 66 years, all of them business men. The cause of death in each report was given as “heart disease." What has brought about this state of affairs? What may take place in the next decade, among our busi ness men if this goes on? The question is desenmg of our most profound study. Frorp an experience of almost thlrty-flve years, I am led to be lieve that the heart is one of the most durable, lasting organs of the human body; it is capable of en during more punishment—and, un doubtedly gets it. Where? Not from intense physical effort; hearls fail In the swivel-chair,—at the steering-wheel of the car. Pugil ists never drop dead from heart disease—at least I never heard of one doing so; heart disea— is rare among the laboring class. The greatest enemy of the heart is, the overloaded stomach—the stagnant blood-stream—the rott n artery'. Ke;p away from these an i you will have escaped nine-tenths of the terrors of death from “heart disease.” It can only be done by moderate indulgence In food of the plainest variety—and, drinking plenty of pure water; commercialized drinks, let them be water or what-not, should b? thoroughly investigated as to their fitness for human consumption. “The old oaken bucket that hangs in the well” supplies about the safest beverage known. Tobacco is a genuine poison,— but don't bo horrified, when 1 say* Frankfurters and kraut may kill a man quicker if over-indulged. I am loth to call the faithfq} Irish potato a silent assassin, but am tempted to do so sometimes. (Br RBV. P. B. riTZWATER. D.D., Dm* of tho Evonlng School, Moody Btblo la- otltuto of Chicago.) .

Allendale, Feb. 10.—At a mass meeting of the stockholders and de positors of the Allendale and Citizens’ Bank, which was closed on Jan, 19th, and placed in the hands of State Bank Examiner Albert S. Fant, it was de cided to appoint a committee to can vass the county for the purpose of soliciting subscriptions for stock in a. new bank, which it tvas decided to organize rather than open an old one. Mr. Fant stated that the assets cf the two banks could be liquidated through a new bank at a gieat deal less ex pense, and that such a plan would be of assistance to the new bank and at the same time save money for the de positors of the defunct institutions. It is stated that about fialf of the required capital stock, $27,560, had been subscribed, and little doubt is expressed that the remaining half will be subscribed in a few days. It is stated 1 on authority that the average per cent paid back to depositors in de funct banks in South Carolina in re cent years has been 17% per cent, and it i« estimated that the two banks.

There Is an utter lack of connec tion between the subject chosen by the lesson committee and the pas sages of Scripture selected. The first exhibits the responsibilities of the subjects of the Messiah’s kingdom, and the second pictures the graces which were upon the member^ of the primitive church. Definite recogni tion should be given this In our In terpretation of the passages. 1. The Responsibilities of the Sub jects of Messiah's Kingdom—(Matt 5:18-10). ' The whole - mass of mankind is shown lo the Scriptures to be cor. rupt—the whole World la moral and spiritual darkness. It Is the high privilege sod solemn responsibility of the subjects of the kingdom to exert a saving and uplifting Influence on the world Ih which they live. They are to live such lives as to purify and enlighten. This can only be done In the measure that they personally know Jesus Christ, the King, and strive to make known His glory and power to others. L “Ye are the salt of the earth" (r. isi. The properties of salt are: (1) Penetrating. This means that the disciples must not separate them selves from the world, but thrust themselves Into Its activities. Salt must be brought Into contact with the substance to be affeeted by It (2) Purifying. The Influence of the dlbclples of Christ Is to uplift and purify. (S) Preserving. Salt has the tend ency to arreet decay. The Influence of believers lends to save the world from perishing in Its own vices. 2. "Ye are the light of the world" (v. 14). Light Illuminates and warms. In order to perform Its mission, light must not k* hidden. The city built on h hill was not Intended to be hid. This world la dark and cold. Many are the pitfalls and snarea set by the i devil. IWIIevera In Christ should so live that the unwary ones be kept i from falling Into them. II. Charactariatics of the Primitive Church (Acts 2:42-47). The behavior of the members of the early church was as marveloua as their gifts of speaking with tongues and performing mighty miracles. It was the result of ‘he Holy Spirit In their hearts. 1. They sought instruction from those who knew the Lord (v. 42). This is alwaya so. The unfailing mark of the spirit-filled believer la eagerness to receive instruction from those who have been taught by the Lord. 2. They abode In fellowship with one another (v. 42). Bplrit-fllled believers have an aifee Hon for their kind. 3. They observed the memorial sac rament of Christ’s death (v. 42). Those who have entered Into fel lowship with Christ will faithfully ob serve this memorial. 4. They continued In prayer (v. 42). ^ A sure mark of the spirit-filled be liever is a life of prayer. 5. They were together (v. 44). This unity was the result of their having been baptized into the one body of which Christ la head (I Cor. 12:13). 6. They had a community of goods (vv. 44, 45). They sold their possessions and dis tributed them to all men as they had heed. This proves that they were un der the power of the supernatural. It Is not a natural thing for one to aban don his title to earihly possessions. 7. They were filled with gladness and singlfness'of heart (v. 46). Those who are really bom from above are filled with great Joy and will devote themselves to the doing of good to others. fl. Praising God and having favor with all the people (v. 47). Such unselfishness gained the at tention of the people and Induced them to yield themselves to God and such as were being saved were addeu unto them. o .
