Chinese Barber Don't Use Lather. "One of the chief trials of lue aver age man is the way bin razor pulls when be proceeds to erase the board from bis face," remarked a traveler. "Some years ago I was In China, and I noticed that the cunning barbers of that country, instead of putting lather on the faces of their customers, used a number of very hot towels. 1 went through the experience and became a convert to the Chinese system. To this day when 1 go to share, in lieu ot soap, I steam my face wltb hot water and find that this method takes alt Hie wlrlness out of the whiskers far bet ter than lather, so that if the blade is reasonably sharp you can shave wltb out any torture incurred in the 'pull ing' process." Baltimore American. Athletic Women of Other Days. A searcher after curious facts bas learned that athletic women are by no means a modern product, as is gen erally believed. They flourished In the days of sal volatile, hoops, patches and snuff In the days when George II. was king. Ladles of the court took part in races arranged for them at the regular meetings, so that there were lady Jockeys as well as gentlemen Jockeys, and once a series of foot races for ladies In Hyde park was organ ized. The first one was run amid great enthusiasm of the populace, and the betting was high. Then stepped In some cross grained old fellow, who persuaded the government that such races were unseemly, and they came to a sudden end.

REVIVAL SERVICES POWER FOR GOOD (Continued from first page.) to exhort you to action In regard to the meetings that are rain on in Enterprise. There have been a great many souls converted and I know there Is not one boh! that la not converted that doej not (eel God's spirit striving with him. to become a Christian. So while the Spirit is' working let all of us work together for the salvation of every unsaved , soul, in Enterprise. We need your ' cooperation and God will bless you in your effort. Your brother in ' Christ. Frank Hamblen. You Hear the Truth. It Is wonderful to see the success Dr. Pratt, the union evangelist speak er, is having. He 13 a boon to the country nad Is the kind of an orator that Impresses you that he knows what he is abojt. He puts the truth to you in such a way that you can't help but S9e where you etand. He is bringing the lost ones to the fold. There have been more than 180 additions to date. When you hear him you hear the truth. Earl Pack. Ovej. 175 Converts. There is no queitioa but that the meetings have beea a success In ev ery respect. I will venture that no one at the outset expected as large and as far-reaching results as have already been realized. The work has been quiet, deep and thorough. Had It been a campaign of emotionalism, the fact that about 175 or more have confessed Christ would have been occasion for spreading the news ' In every paper In this northeastern part of Oregon. As it Is, the soul-saving work has gone on so quietly and with so Little of the spectacular that people little realize what is being accomplished. It has been my privilege to take a more or le3 active part in several jvangellstic campaigns. In none have I seen a more soond or simple pre entatlon of the Scriptures; In none, i stronger and more manly appeal to reason and good Judgment; in none i more careful .instruction of the con verts; In none a more urgent iasis tance upon obedlance to the Word, intensity of prayer and open confes sion. In consequence the conversions have been bright and intelligent. -It is hoped that' every one will avail themselves of the privilege of tlie meetings' dming the few remain ing days they are to continue. S Harris. Unity of Spirit. The Evangelistic campaign being held under the direction of Dr. Pratt Is accomplishing a great deal of good. His presentation of the plan of Salva tion and his appeal to the reason and conscience is leading those who ac cept Christ to do so with, earnestness and determination. Another good re suit is 'the unity of spirit with which ill Christian people, both old and new converts are working together. ' J. S. Kay. Opportunity of Lifaftime. The revival meetings now In pro gress deserve the support of every person who is Interested In the wel tare of the community. Dr. Pratt ha 3hown himself to be an able exposlt or of the Scriptures, and an earnest preacher of righteousness. He has ihown an earnest purpose, of leading js to "Get Right with God," and is loing his beet to establish the con vert in the Christian life. These meetings afford an opportunity tc learn the way of truth that will not occur again in the lifetime of many X us. You cannot afford to miss this opportunity. C. E. Trueblood. Unabated Interest The union revival meetings at the rink continue this week with unabat ed Interest. The cold weather proves but little hindrance. The house if made quite comfortable and with wraps on no inconvenience is suffer id. The work Is dejp and perversive rhe outward manifestations are en :ouraging; about 140 have professed .'alUi in Christ. Monday night's therm lealt with social evils. Dr. Pratt 3 poke in no uncertain sound on the avlls of the modern "round dance" where hugging Is set to music and Inflamed passions hold sway. The round dance permits and displays a iberty between the sexes that no barbarous or heathen people of earth tolerate. It ministers to the lower life and furnishes an ever increas Ing army, who enter the fallen life, and sell themselves at the altar of lust to demonlzed man. If the town people esteem virtue and have any regard lor personal purity they should, abominate and flee from this death-breeding plague of your social system. W. H. Gibson. Ring of Sincerity. In reference to the evangelistic meetings now in progress in our city, I desire to say, in my opinion they present a rare opportunity for our people to hear the word of God pre sented in a clear and convincing man ner by a thorough Bible student and teacher. Dr. Pratt is certainly a very forceful speaker, and his earn est desire to prea?a the truth regard less of any and all criticism appeals to roe as being an almlrable qualifi cation In a minister of the gospel. and evidently meets with the approv al ot all who hear him. Judging from the large congregations and conver sions at these meetings, it is also very evident tha our people epprec- Fall and Winter Wear for Men Including all the latest ideas in Shoes, Hats and Caps Underwear, Sheep Skin Lined Coats, Mackinaws, Coat Sweaters, German Socks, and All kinds of Rubber Shoes j& Brand New vStock of CLOTHING Just Arrived Quality and Satisfaction in All Lines Guaranteed C.H.

Such preaching has the ring of sin cerity and earnestness and comes as x two-edged sword to the heart of .he unbeliever.

The spiritual uplift of our city is wondrous. The moral tone is being magnified. The sheaves of golden jraln are being garnered from an ibundant harvest. The grace of God .eigneth W. F.' Rankin. Strengthens Christiana. The evangelistic meetings being conducted by Dr. Pratt at this place jannot be too highly epoken of. His Uscourses are powerful in strength ming Christian .people and warning ilnners. There should be a larger vttendance and most especially of loubters of the divine origin of the iBble.
