morning and evening. The at
tendance last Sunday did not
come up to the attendance the
Sunday before; so much sickness
may account for it. All corneas
soon as you are well enough to
come. The subject in the loung
People's meeting in the evening
was interesting and helpful. The
Woman s Home and Foreign
Missionary society program fol
lowing the Young People's meet
ing was well attended and well
rendered. The address by Rev.
Qoode was an inspiration and en
couragement to all the workers
in the missionary cause. A lib

missions. deported.
The following is quoted from
a western journal, says (lie I'liil
dolphin Ledger: "Wo have ta
ken wood, potatoes, corn, eggs,
butter, onions, cabbage, chick
ens, stone, calico, lumber, sand,
labor, sauerkraut, second band
clothing, coouskins, scrap iron,
shoo pegs, rawhides, chinkapins,
tan bark, dogs, sorghum, seed,
jar ware, and wheat straw on
subscription, and now a man
wants to know if wo would send
the paper for six months for a
largo owl. Wo have no prece
dent for refusing' and if we can
find a man who is out of owl and
wants some we'll do it."
Of all the iniquitous vocations
in the world, that of dopo ped
dler is the worst. Compared to
him, the bootlegger almost takes
oir a virtuous hue, inless. per
chance, he bo nuo of those boot

While the time' for announce
mcnt of candidacies for munici
pal ofllces which become vacant
in .Inly, J!)L';i, is far distant, ncv
ertholess one about the city hal
can hear more or less about what
is to happen. For instance City
Commissioner Bigelow is pronar
inir to make a race to be re-elect
ed; William Adams, city treas
nrer, is giving serious eonsideni
tion to the question of running
for a scat in tho council; Dr. T.
li. l'crkins, former city cominis
sinner, is certain to be a candi
date with strength that will make
him n formidable candidate and
it is quite probable that Stanhope
Pier, son of City Commissioner
Pier, will be a candidate to 1111
i no vacancy which win occur
when Mr. Pier, Sr., steps out of
lice. City Auditor Funk, who
has been reported as coveting a
seat in the council, has told his
friends that he is satisfied with
his present berth and will ask
the voters to return him to the
city auditor's office. Portland
Daily Abstract.
To grow rich : Trust none, be
friend none, get all possible, save
all you get; stint yourself and
yours; heap interest, bo menu,
miserable, despised for thirty
years; and when wealth has come
denth comes to finish the job
your body is buried in a deep
hole, tho heirs dance over it, and
your spirit goes where!

home of Mrs. II. L. Whisler, 811

the only needed finishing touch
to tho occasion. Especially at

Marilyn Nottrsc, our minister's
two year old daughter, who per
formed her part perfectly. A
bountiful luncheon was served at
four o'clock and all felt very for
