Holmes' Sermon on "Christian Perfection," Delivered at Yester duy's Morning Service.) i we "are 1 ke Mm, seeing Him as He In the church God gave Imperfect man a perfect Institution i. e., so far as God Is concerned. It Is perfect. But In the hands of imperfect men, the church Is marred of Its beauty and shorn of Its power. In the eyes of the i world the church Is what we are and Is doing what we do, and Is there fore Imperfect, but God did not so order It. He planned a perfect organ ization, gave It a "divine law," a "Di vine Founder and foundation," gave It a "Divine Mission." and gave It a "Divine Name." Imperfect man has never been satisfied with these and different groups of men have depart ed In various ways from God's Intend ed program, but we fnould (Jo our best to preserve the God given per fection In form of organization, In teaching, and In name. God gave no distinguishing names among Chris tians they were all "Ono In Christ," and nil were to "glorify God in the name," the name Christian. In Christ, we have our perfect Ideal.

Paul said. "I press ar Just marking time..

In choosing this text, I am merely Indicating that progress Is the law of life and Is the natural thing with the normal Chris tian. We aro all marching toward tho goal of perfection. Yes, It Is true, that some aro marching without mak ing progress they are like the army that is Just marking time going through with all the movements of marching but remaining In tho same place. Many are today going through with tho "motions of the Christian life," but making no progress. They are "saying their prayers," but not to churcli" ity. Tho Father, Son ana noiy frpim are perfect. This Is admitted by Saint and sinners alike. From them has come the "perfect law of liberty," designed to lead man himself Into nerfoctlon. "All Scripture Is given high calling of God In Christ Jesus Tho muckraker looks upon the filth and offscourings of earth; the social butterfly flits from . one pleasure flower to another, missing the suh stance of life by surfeiting upon Its dainties, while the true Christian be- by Inspiration of God and Is profit- holds In Christ his Ideal and struggles on lowara penocuon in iiim. Christian perfection begins with the hi tnr doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for Instruction In right eousness, that the man of God may bo perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works."

Senator Kern has been detailed to read Washington's farewell address to the senate Febru ary 22. Washington's birthday. The designation of Mr. Kern brought forth a new story. The Ind'ana senator went abroad last fall. Being away from democrat ic Influence, Bryan's running mate of 1908 forgot Jeffersonlan simplicity for a .time and blossomed out in a silk hat and good clothes to match. His appearance was so changed that he looked more like a minister than a statesman. A confidence man picked Mr. Kern out for an easy mark. Rushing up to him with outstretched hand the would-be depoller said: "I'm so glad to meet you. Doctor. I have ofien had the pleasure of see ing you In the pulpit." "Like hell you have," said Senator Kern, withdrawing his hand. The con f dence man fled.

Burbank has produced a cactus without thorns, so nutritious that it Is relished by stock, and the prospects are that great barren des erts, will be made to support vast herds of sheep and cattle. These changes are brought about by con trolling the food of the plant or tree, and if we would go on unto perfec tion, we must use the spiritual food God has prepared, feed on the Word. Then we must keep our Ideal the Christ before us. We can only thus be come like Him. From the human side imperfection taints all that we do and we will often be disappointed In our efforts, but we should keep on trying.

London. It has been decided to publish the Journal of Abdul Hamld They are authentic records of his ter rible thirty-three years reign and throw light on social conditions and court life. . They embrace historical memoranda, diaries, letters of denun ciation, transactions of the slave mar ket, sanctions of executions and tor' tures, statements of spies and testi mony of oppression and cruelty. After Abdul Hamld was deposed the revolutionists made every possible ef fort to discover the qjournals, but In vain, until Abdul himself was ogllb led to disclose their hiding place in a hidden chamber close to his bedroom which was shut and opened by an In gcnlous electrical contrivance. These Journals filled 500 boxes They are said to compromise several members of the new regime who are making desperate efforts to prevent their publication.

R. & X., Company to intro duce field peas and alfalfa In the semi-arid districts of eastern Oregon have met with such success that R. B. Miller, traffic manager, under whose direction the experiments were con ducted, is contemplating supplemental seed distributions in various parts of the state. Recently Mr. Miller wrote to far mers among whom field pea and al falfa seed was distributed on the trip of the demonstration train In the spring of 1910 to learn from them the results of their tests. The replies were most gratifying. J. K. Fisher of Haines, said that he planted tho field pea seeds In March, 1910. and that lie reaped more than 400 pounds of peas from less than an acre of land devoted to that purpose. He gave to his neigh bors all but sufficient seed from this yield to plant another acre last spring. He turned hogs into the acre patch in the middle of the summer and writes that he never saw hogs fatten as quickly as those did. In planting, he reports that he set his grain drill wide open and deep. R. H. King, of Grass Valley, reports that he had good luck with his alfalfa and expects to devote considerable acreage to that product In the future. Charles W. Martin, of Olex, Or., writes: "I regard growing of peas in this county both practical and re muneratlve, not only as a forage and pasture crop, but for harvesting for seed. It not only pays the farmer, but I am satisfied from my limited experi ence that It enriches the soil." Clark Benson, of Haines, said that peas do well on his sub-irrigated land Hogs thrive on the peas. Fred E. Wells of Hermlston, plant ed alfalfa on lowlands and watered it for five or six weeks. He cut one ton of hay June 6, three-fourths of a ton July 5, the same quantity August and a half ton September 15 a total of three tons from a small package of seed. He fed the alfalfa to a cow and increased her supply of milk ma terlally. He thinks alfalfa can be raised to advantage on the lowlands of eastern Oregon. G. W. Marvel of Olex, fed peas to pigs and profited thereby. W. T Sellers of Hermlston, planted five pounds of alfalfa seed on a quarter of an acre of deep, sandy land and cut three crops the first year. W. J, Townley of Union, had success with his 'peas and will continue to grow them. Davis Brothers of North Powder, planted 60 pounds of peas May 10 and reaped 37 sacks. They declare peas a profitable crop to any farmer that grows hogs and expresses the opin ion that not enough Oregon farmers are in the hog-growing business. A. V. Swift of Baker, planted pea seed on dry upland that never, had been irrigated and that could not be irrigated under any condition. He ob tanned a splendid stand from which he saved the seed. It Improved the soil and the following year he was able to grow a bigger crop, there. One fifth of an acre of poor soil that nev er yielded anything but rye returned 550 pounds of peas. The precipita tion that year was only one half inch. The following year he again planted rye and found the soil grealy im proved. Experiments with field peas and al falfa In other parts of the state have met with similar success. Last fall seeds were distributed in central Or egon. Mr. Miller is eager to Introduce these crops in every section of the state with the be'.ief that they will multiply the value of Oregon farm products. pling housos, announcing that from 5 a. m. until 10 a, m. and some of them run clear up to 11 a. m. they will sell the best bonded 15 cent goods for 10 cents right over the bar and no questions asked. Not a nicer piece of liquor to be had any place for any money. "We're trying to revive the morning nip," the saloonman explained. "The price of beer is going up and the profit in It never was anything like the profit in whisky, anyhow. So that's why we are making these morning bargains. But someway even the cut price doesn't seem to bring out a very big demand for morning whisky. I guess it's goodby to the eye-opener." "So many big firms are so strict about drinking now that men seem to fear to take a drink or two before go ng to work. It's hard on us," and the saloonman sighed. LA GRANDE MERCHANTS MAKE TOUR OF STATE Excursion Party Starts Sunday for n Visit to Western Oregon Cities. La Grande, Ore. Telegrams are being received daily by the manage ment of the merchants' excursion to leave here Sunday on a special train for a tour of Western Oregon. A message from Governor West and one from the Mayor of Salem, extending a welcome and presenting the keys o the town, are among them. The aim of the party is to attend the ses sions of the Oregon Retail Merchants' Association at Medford, which will be In session next Wednesday and Thurs day, and advantage Is taken of the occasion to pay a fraternal visit to Western Oregon cities and get ac quainted.

SALOOXISTS SCARED. Saloonmen of Kansas City, Tired of Seeing Bartenders Idle in Mornings, Cut Price of Drink. Kansas City. For some years the custom of taking the morning "eye opener,".or "morning nip," or "morn ing's morning," or whatever you may call it or hear it called, has been on the wane. Time was when every tired busi ness man felt that he must start the day with a sample of that oldert bar reled goods or bonded goods or he wouldn't last until noon, but now the men with the white aprons don't have much to do until noon, except wipe oft the mahogany and the big cut-glass punch bowl. . And so It is that several patriotic rum sellers along Independence ave nue have dashed to the rescue of the cherished American institution, the "morning's morning." They have af fixed signs to the fronts of their Up- AXOTHER STEEPLEJACK FALLS Ladder Snaps niul Every Bono in Man's Body Is Broken. Wilkesbarre, Pa. Joseph Huvch of Deposit, X.
