Why should a church always be considered a subject for chanty? How often have you heard men say: "I don't go to church very often, hut when I do go they are always begging for money. That's the reason I don't go oftener.' It's a narrow point of view, of course, for a church needs money to run it, just the same as a business. But uliy shouldn't a church be run as a business and be IKdependent and cot DEpendent? It can be, but business methods must be adopted. All successful businesses advertise. The greatest competitor of the church on Sundays the movies advertises liberally. You hnve attractions in jour church. You have a story to tell. You have a minister who can preach with a punch. The "regulars'' may know it, but it isn't the "rtculars" you want to reach it's the "irregulars" and the "neverwuzzers." That a where the church has got to grow. And you have got to go after them the same as the business house goes after business. You know that every business man keeps track of his sales every week and every month and be compares them with a jear ago. And if he isn t run ning ahead he wants to know why. Do the churches keen track of their attendance? They know what the subscriptions arc, for that's vital; yet increased attendance would mean increased subscriptions. The church should cease to be DEpendent. It should go after business Ministers who have tried it have been well compensated. Supposing this advertisement should appear in thia paper this week: FIRST REFORMED CHURCH This Sunday Evening at 7:45 THE REV. JOHN KNOX ALLEN. D. D. will preach on "OUR TOWN" Front Seats Free. Rear Seats, Ten Cents Each. You'll bm lurprUeJ. Com out and bear a worth-whit sermon. A mmcUI IsrtUlion e alL We would Ilka to mi YOU in church. SpccUl mule. Don't you think it would help? Wouldn't it start some talk about the ' church? Wouldn't the people say, "Well, I guess the church people are waking up?" The cost of the advertisement would be small, but the results would be big. Think it over. Why shouldn't our churches stand on their own feet and be run in a businesslike way? Why shouldn't t!io people be educated to the fact that it takes money to run a church, that It is not a chanty organization and that people AIIE EXPECTED to contribute to it. What would this town be without churches? You would notilive in it, for it wouldn't be a fit place to live in.. You need the church. The cbuitfc needs you and the church needs advertising.

SIGHT OF MONEY WON HIM Prospector Refused $100,000 for Mine, but Sold for $10,000 Actual Gold Monoy. Money's an odd sort of commodity and some persons know very little of actual cash from intimate acquaint ance. Harry Veness tells of an old sour dough of the Klondike, who had a valuable claim after several years of dangers and hardships in the North. He came to Seattle and operators who realized the valuo of his holdings had tried to buy hlra out for $100,000, but It was no use, the prospector held on. Then came the wise man who made the deal, and for one-tenth of that sum. Tho stage-managed propo sition was worked like Oils: The operators cornered their man on the main street and Induced him to accompany them to a dark little pfflce off Marlon street There they talked Alaska and mining until they thought they had their man In the proper frame of mind. They opened up the subject of a deal and he nd mltted he had been offered $100,000. "And you'll never sell for that?" one said, and when the miner said "No" the would-be purchaser went to a table near by that was covered with a cloth and snatched the covering away.

SPEEDED UP POSTAL SERVICE First Exclusive Transportation of the Malls, In 1875, Was Watched With Intense Interest. The first exclusive mall train was placed in sen-ice Sept. 18, 1875. Leav ing New York, It arrived on schedule time In Chicago the following day, after n Journey of twenty-six hours. Great Interest was taken at thnt time In this all-postal train, which carried the western mall from New York to Chicago at n greater speed than any 2 Assessment roll binders, Russia passenger train could command, and, furthermore delivered that mall at Chi cago distributed and arranged for Im mediate dispatch to other lines, or for delivery by carrier In Chicago. With the beginning of the year 1899 the mall between New York and San Francisco was also carried on fast trains, consuming less time than the fnstest passenger train. Fast trains between Chicago and Omaha ran the more than 500 miles In less than ten hours. An Important feature of the new service was that by which mall bags were caught without stopping the trains, and which brought even small towns the benefit of speedy service, the Detroit News states. & Cbrduroy, lettered. 550 Long assessment roll sheots. 550 short Assessment roll sheets. 1 set leather tabbed index sheets for rolls. 7 individual L.

Blueberry Rapture. Both these splendid varieties of ber ries (high and low growing), which are probably the best berry growing on bushes In the world, are a free gift of God to tho people of New Englund. Beautiful In Its white or slightly rose ate llower, beautiful In leaf and hublt, the bush Is, of course, most lovely when laden down with Its cerulean ber ries lnrge, round and plump, dusted over with o line soft fuzz or bloom, and packed full almost to tho point of bursting with a Juice which Is more delicious than nny known nectar. The ripe, rich, woodsy flavor of the perfect New England blueberry Is Indescrib able. In It ore the perfume of the wild rose and of the clover; In mat ters of the palate the savor of the blueberry Is precisely what the bell like note of the woodthrush Is In the domain of sound. Esthetlcally, as well as in habitat, the two are closely associated. Both sensations are Inef fable, and quite without parallel in nature. "Nomad" in Boston Transcript.
