In the Court of Common Pleas.
Medora Crocker and Mary Reynolds,
plaintiffs, against Julia M. Bailey,
defer d ant.
To the defendant, Julia M. Bailey:
You are hereby summoned and re
quired to answer the complaint In
much of our lives must he devoted to
foundation laying and seed planting
for the benefit of those to come after
us. The text is John iv, 37, “One sow-
eth, and another reapeth.”
Christ Is here describing a group of
workmen going forth to their labors.
Each laborer carries upon his arm a
bag full of seed. They fill their hands
with the seeds and begin to scatter
them far and wide. Finally one of
these laborers turns and says to Christ:
“Why, Jesus, for what am I planting
these seeds? I will never live long
enough to gather the harvests in this
world." “No," answers Christ, “I know
it. But the coining generations will
Joying the fruit of their labors. Do
you not realize that when John Guten
berg invented printing ho was invent
ing It for you, and that when Colum
bus sailed across the seas he was dis
covering America for you, aud that
when Cyrus W. Field stretched his ca
bles he was laying them for you, and
thal when Galilei developed the tele
scope he was developing It for you,
and that when Isaac Newton discover
ed the law of specific gravity he was
discovering it for you? All these men
were seed planters. They were tho
giants who laid the foundation stones
upon which the superstructures of our
industrial prosperity have been erect
ed. They themselves received very lit
tle personal benellt out of their seed
planting, but they made millions of
dollars for other men. The next gen
eration reaped the harvest of their
seed planting. “One man soweth, and
another reapeth.”
This fact was powerfully illustrated
in the life of one of my friends. In
my Pittsburg church there was a fam
ily which for generations had produced
bridge builders and contractors. The
first member of that family who came
grave of the Immortal John Keats.
Did John Keats ever die? No. As an
inspiration of his pen there have come
forth two mighty poets who studied
him Intently as their model, Robert
Browning and Alfred Tennyson. He
lives. John Keats will always live in
song. So there has been many a mar
tyred patriot who thought he died an
abject failure. But out of the death
better dress? Why does not father
move Into a better house?” You re
member just how she looked as she
said: “Well, son. this dress Is warm
enough, and I guess the old house will
do for pa and me. We cannot afford
much better clothes and give you chil
dren all the education you ought !<•
have. We are willing for you children
to gather the harvests of our life's
| work. We do not care so much what
i becomes of us if you boys only turn
j out well. We are sowers, just humble
sowers. You. my son, can reap, but
‘ your father and 1 will just keep on Am
| sowing.”
And can you not say those two old
folks sowed well? Is not the result of
gather the harvests of your seed plant
ing. As your ancestors planted seeds to the western part of Pennsylvania
from which you are today gathering was a contractor. His grandson, whom
this action, which was on the the harvests, so you must plant seeds that I knew well, was also a contractor.

and the patriotic sacrifice of these he- I their seed planting being reaped today
roes of the past has been evolved an
ideal of conduct for all patriots of this
and other nations. * These patriotic
martyrs gained little or no personal
benefit. They were the seed planters.
The present generation and succeeding
generations will continue to gather in
their cumulative harvests. “One man
soweth, and another reapeth.”
What Is true of the industrial world
and the political life is true of the
church and of our ecclesiastical and
spiritual blessings. When the fire
grate Is always full of coal and the
cupboard Is always full of food and the
wardrobe is always full of clothes,
most of us accept the luxuries of life
as the ordinary commonplaces. Then
we wonder why any person will grum
ble about being cold or hungry. When
we are born under the shadow of a
church spire and are baptized at the
church altars and we are sent to her
office of the Clerb of Court of Com
mon Pleas for the said County, and j

have are the fruit of that home hus

brothers and sisters get all the credit
for the harvests they have reaped?
“No, no.” you answer. “We are noth

seed planting of the two gospel sowers
who lived and labored for us children
back in the old farmhouse.” In heav

for the harvests you and your brothers

Now, my friends, as others have
sowed for you, are you also sowing
for your children? As the glorious
men and women of the past have been

Now, my friends, I want to tell you
that the church of the Lord Jesus
Christ was never planted anywhere
successfully unless It was first planted
there In blood soaked soil. Tho plant
ers of the church of the Lord Jesus
Christ were the heroes who were al
ways looking for the harvests of the
future and never living for their own
personal benefit and reward.
Great Sacrifices.
Whore did the American church come
from? Did the first great explorers
who came across the seas find the little
wldte meeting houses in the center of
every Indian village and planted upon
| every hilltop aud dotted here and there
over the broad prairies of the west?
, “Oh, no!” you say. “It was only by
the greatest sacrifices of Marquette
i and Eliot and Roger Williams and mis
sionaries of such ilk that the church
of Jesus Christ was ever planted upon
American shores. Then after the
churches were established in tlie east
the backwoods preachers like Peter
Cartwright and Havens and the daring
missionaries like Bishop Whipple led
on their cohorts of evangelists. Far
ther and farther west they carried the
cross, and farther aud farther west
they went until at last that cross
The Mora
vians penetrated into the snow and ice
of the arctic with the news, and by
and by Sheldon Jackson lifted the
cross and carried it far north amid the
Alaska snows. So, step by step, the
brave missionaries have struggled and
starved aud In many places have died
consecrating with their bodies the land
they had won.” Yes, the American
church came as the results of the hum
ble sacrifice of thousands of obscure
ministers of whom tbe world knows
nothing.
Paul once asserted that In his work

willing to so submerge your life in
Christ’s that you will find your joy in
the joys of others and your gospel tri
umphs in their salvation, although < n

those whom you have blessed? Are
you willing to be a sower for the Mas
ter and. like him, to leave the fruit of
your service and sacrifice for others to
reap? Have you learned the meaning
of those words in which he compared
himself to a corn of wheat which
brings no fruit until it is east into the
ground and dies? Are you ready to
give yourself to service or to sacrifice,
to lay down all for Jesus Ghrist. who
himself was a seed planter and himself
died in order that you might live?

Could Benjamin Franklin awaken now
ognize the face of his “child of electric-
I Ity.” lie planted the seed of electrical
development, but others have garnered
the harvests. “One man soweth. and
another reapeth.”
Many years ago a poor Yale student
who had a tendency to consumption
was living in South Carolina in the
home of the widow of General Nathan
ael Greene. While there he met some
southern planters who were bemoaning
the fact that the chief profit of tlie cot
ton Industry was lost because no ma
chine had yet been invented which
could separate the cotton seeds from
the cotton. Young Ell Whitney, for
that was the Yale student’s name, went
to work and labored on month In and
month out. He perfected the cotton
gin, but before he could get a patent
upon the Invention the ham In which
he had his workshop was broken open,
! and the machine was stolen, and his
Ideas were patent ed by other men. Ell

who has doubled and quadrupled and

reality. Sitting one Sunday at the
Lord’s table to administer the com
munion, he concealed the cup. Then In
deeply solemn tone he said, “Children,
I bring you a gift from Jesus, some
thing to remind you of him.” Then, his
voice breaking, he said, “It Is the wine
of the covenant, his own blood shed for
you, aud he bids me say, ‘Drink ye all
of It.’” And he brought forward the
eup, and, looking at It, he wept. Yes;
all the good we enjoy has come to us
as that wine by sacrifice. They lived

According to Andrew D. White, presi
dent of the American delegation at the
first Hague conference, it was literally
the bushels of letters aud cablegrams
that were sent from America by indi
viduals and societies at a erltical mo
ment when everything seemed dark
that changed despair into hope and ul-
| timately had great weight In bringing
forth The Hague court. If the United
States of America can cause the next
conference to create an International
parliament in another decade or so the
time will be ripe to establish an Inter
national executive. The Independent
expresses tlie hope that then at last we
shall have Tennyson’s dream of “The
Parliament of Man. the Federation >f
the World." and for the first time since
the Prince of Peace walked on earth It
will be possible to have “Peace on earth
and good will toward men."
Comparison
New York Standard Policy and The
Mutual Benefit Contract.
The Mutual Benefit Policy cost much
less and guarantees a great deal more. Its
cash value, loan and extention provisions
become effective 2nd year instead of the
jrd. We will even make a loan to assist
in paying the second premium. The
York Standard Policy offers no cash
value—only loans. If a man, age 35,
should take out, at the same time two 20
payment life policies for $10,000 each, one
in the Mutual Benefit, the other in the
New York Standard policy form, he
would pay a premium for the New York
policy which would exceed that of the
Mutual Benefit by $21.20 per aunum, a
difference, which improved at 6 per cent,
compound interest, would amount in 20
years to $826.65. Then if he would sur
render both policies, The Mutual Benefit
would pay him $609.20 more than the
New York company, making a total dif.
ference in guaranteed results of $1,435.85.
The above takes no account of divi-
1 dends, the amount of which must depend
on future management, interest rates and
mortality. Place your insurance with the

Where the American Woman Excels.
The American woman Is better read
and usually far more cultured than the
Englishwoman of the same class. She
Is a more agreeable companion, and
she has a firm liellef that she owes It
to herself to make the most of her
mental powers, and these qualities
make home life more attractive than
many meals and much spring clean

A Burglar’s Tool.
A remarkable instrument was found
by the London police on a man who
was arrested while examining the ex
teriors of Jewelers’ shops In the east
end. Its purpose Is to cut off the tops
of the bolts holding down revolving
shatters. Looking like a street door
lock, it consists of a spanner and steel
teeth. Worked by the* spanner, these
teeth cut through metal with tbe ut
most ease.
