The King's Business The evangelistic meetings are growing In depth and intensity. The Spirit of God s manifest In mighty power A vital factor is the right atmosphere In which to work. No minister, church or evangelist can accomplish the largest results without it. Our Lord required It in His ministry. Once upon a time He declared that He could do no mighty works there because of the people's unbelief. The right atmosphere for a suc cessful revival will come as soon as God's people are in the spirit of prayer. Several cottage prayer-meetings were held last Thursday morn ing in which the presence of God was expressly manifest. Such a spirit of prayer is sure to be accom panied by a harvest. The afternoon services have been greatly encouraged by the closing of and Chickens; Vegetables Prop. H 8 S OREGON. g uiiuinnnmunini the stores.

Forcibly lowering temperature has . accom plished nothing for the good of the patient for odvlous reasons. Nature Is out of balance, and I am con vinced that many fatal results are from meddlesome interference iwlth drugs which still further disturb equilibrium and bring about untime ly dissolution. How the Osteopath Works. The osteopath attempts to hold in check any untoward symptom which may predominate and bolster up the fagged organ which is struggling, and in time nature regains her bold and health returns. Much time may be spent In some point of differential diagnosis and loud cackling result when at last the thing has a name, but even with this result are they any nearer a cure? The osteopath loes no time over a name, for the cause of the condition Is usually at his; fingers' tips at once and repair begins at the same time. Herald of Osteopathy.

NINE HUNDRED AND NINE MILES OVERLAND (Continued from first page.) sisted ot a sage hen, which Mr. Lit tletou killed. September 14th we started through a desert, traveling 35 miles before we could find water, also a postoffice called Eglt. September 15th we started through the desert again and traveling 30 miles we camped. Here we found an alkali lake which' is known to be very poisonous. Being still - In the desert, we found a spring of good water near this lake, which seem ed very strange to not have alkali in it. The spring is very large; had been tested 600 feet and didn't find bottom, so we were told. The coun try all around here was hilly, sage brush and alkali. September 16th we moved on 20 miles for noon, before finding water. After nooning we traveled along a very large lake which looked very alee, and had very nice scenery along its banks, tout the country sur rounding it was a desert. This lake was 20 miles long. We drove 40 miles that, day, which was a very hard Jrive but we had to, to get good water. We drove until 9. o'clock at light be'ore reaching it and were all nearly frozen, tired out, sleepy, and too worn out to get supper, so we all crawled into bed, and by norning we were all as hungry as a bunch of wolve3. When breakfast was called all were ready to eat ex cept (Mr. Davis, who was very inter ested in( fishing. By the time we were ill through eating, he came up with me little old cat fish, about 5 inches ong, and all mouth; it was so ugly jne of the girls grabbed it out of his hands and threw it back, so he JIdn't have one. He might as well lot have had any as that little old lomely thing. We soon started on and arrived in Lake View about four j'clock and camped. Here we had ill kinds of company, Indians, Irish men, Dagoe3, Japs and negroes. They ill seemed to have something to nake them quite Jolly as they rallied all night. Lake View is situated it the head ' of Goose Lake. This alles is very pretty, and abundance if hay la- raise! there. Goose Lake !s 35 miles long and 15 miles wide. 15 miles of it i3 In Oregon and the remainder extends Into California. The elevation here at the head of .he lake is 5,400 feat. Brant, geese, and ducks abound on the lake. The Shewalkan river is supported by the lake. While this is a "very productive place It is devoid 'of market, being 45 miles from the nearest railroad. September 18th we traveled down the west shore of the Take to Pine Creek, a little ..village situated on the California line." Here we found our- lelves 435 miles from' our starting point. Here the old .' . horse which Mr. DaviSt purchased from Jim Dalley of Enterprise, became so lame and was also a hard looker anyway, that we decided to leave him, so we had- to give him away and buy another one. Mr. Davis eaid he had better give him away while he could, for fear he would die on him, and he couldn't even leave him on anyone's property. 5 (To be continued.) NOTICE FOR PUBLICATION.
