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

USE OF SYMPTOMS.
Symptoms are but indications of
disease, and disease but further .indi
cations of lowered vitality. 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.

NINE HUNDRED AND NINE
MILES OVERLAND

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
