Several years ago when Erne Jacobs
was a child she was walking along the
railroad tracks at Greenwood. A
passenger train came along and before
she could get off the track she was run
down and both feet cut off. Almost im

menced a $ 5,000 damage suit. The
c ise wont to trial and during its prog

information given out that the father
had settled with the company. Sub

her f ither brought suit in her own be
half. This case went to trial, and be
fore it was submitted to the jury an
agreement was reached between the
plaintiff and the defendant dismissed

in that capacity at Murray, and has
been railroading for twenty years.
There is no joshing in that depot, but
it is enlivened with the music of
feathered t-ongsters, and made delic

The Murray postoflice has two mails
daily in and out, and issues about
$1,000 a month in money orders. In

The youngest merchant was bjrn
six miles from Murray. Reference is
made to John Ij. Young, who was
reared on the farm, and in December

Christianity is the summons of divine
love for man to be Christ-like to
emulate the works of our great Master
To attain thereunto men must know
Eomewhat of the divine principle of
Jesus' life work,. and prove their know
ledge by doing as He bade "Go and
do thou likewise. "
We know principle only through
science. The principle ot Christ is
divine love, resistless life and truth
then its bcience must be Christ-like,
or Christian Science. Moro than
regal is tho majesty of its meeknss;
and its might is the overflowing tides
of truth that sweep the universe,

stores of knowledge the mysteries of
exhaustless Beipg. Seek ye these, till

When a young man vainly boasted
T am wise, for I have conversed with

swer: '"And I with many rich men,
but I am not rich." The richest bless
ings are obtained by laber; and a ves
sel full must be emptied before it can
be refilled. Lawyers may ki ow too
much of human law to have a clear
perception of divine justice, and di
vines bo too deeply read in scholastic
theo cgy to appreciate or to demon
strate Christian charily. Losing the

principle in its asaeasorie?, causes lu ef
