At Springfield. Ills., last Friday
night, while Evangelist Billy Sunday
was engaged in one of his revival
services, a crazy crank named Sher
man Potts, ran up to the platform
and struck Sunday several terrific
blows with a buggy whip. Sunday
jumped from his station, knocked
the man down, and they had a genuine
mix-up. in which Sunday's athletic
training gave him the best of the
crank who was a powerful fellow. Re
ports claim the melee wos most in
teresting. Sunday does not seem to
to have the meek and loving spirit of
the Master, whose teachings he is
supposed to give to the people at so j
much per teach. Carrying a revolver
and threatening to shoot his enemies i
and engaging in fist-fights in the!
presence of his thousands of ^hearers
does not appeal very strongly to the
spiritual side of the question. It
would seem that evangelism wa,s re
trograding very strongly from the
pure, Christian spirit exhibited by
such men as Moody and Sankey and
other followers and examplers of the
meek and lowly Jesus.

Charm of Sincerity.
Few attributes add so much to one’s
personal power as the knowledge that
one is absolutely genuine and sin
cere.
If your life is a perpetual lie. if you
know that you are not what you pre
tend to be, you can not be strong.
There is a continuous struggle with
the truth going on inside you which
saps your energy and warps char
acter.
If there Is a mote in your eye, re
move it at once. Otherwise, you can
not look the world straight in the
face. Further, there will be a cloudi
ness, a haze, about your character
which will be noticeable to those
about you.
Strength lies in character. Deceit
is weakness; sham and pretense are
enfeebling. Only the genuine and the
sincere are worth while.
Knew Her Weakness.
The postmistress in a small town
was strongly suspected of tampering
with packages and parcels passing
through the office. One day a little
boy entered the office and handed
her a box containing a large piece of
wedding cake, saying: “My sister, the
bride, sends this to you with her com
pliments and would like you to eat
as much as you can.”
The postmistress was delighted.
"How very kind of the bride to re
member me,” she said. “Did she know
I have a special weakness for wed
ding cake?”
“She did,” the boy replied. “And
she thought she'd send you some this
afternoon jest to take the edge off
your appetite before she mailed any
boxes to her friends.”

INHERENT LOVE OF THE SOIL.
Characteristic That Is the Most Deep
ly Planted in Mortals.
The first man was a gardener, we
are told. Certain it is that the first
Men were tillers of the soil, after they
ceased to be wandering warriors.
That is where we get our love of na
ture, declares a writer in the Kansas
City Journal. That is why we build
parks and have flowers clambering
about our premises. That is why we
are strangely at peace when we get
out into the mountains and lose our
selves among the' fragrant woods.
.That is why we loathe at times the
smell of paint that is on civilization
and long for the perfume of the life
that Is close to the green leaves and
the wild flowers. That is why we are
eo happy when we camp out and why
we are so reluctant to return. That is
why our earliest recollections of the
“old farm” are the sweetest and ten
derest of our lives. That is why we
crack a joke at the “simple life” and
“back to nature” and all that—when
somebody is around—and why we
know, away down in our hearts, that
the simple life is the life most worth
living and that we cannot get close
to anything sweeter or purer than na
ture, "Mother" Nature, whose sons
and daughters we are, from whom we
may wander far, but to whom we re
turn as prodigals,'finding the prodi
gal’s welcome and the prodigal’s
peace..
ALL THAT SHE CARED TO SEE.
Most Interesting Discovery One Wom
an Made by Use of the Glass.
‘‘I thought it was a pretty fair sort
of telescope for one that wasn’t very
big,” said Uncle Silas. “I rigged it
up in the attic by the high north win
dow and had it fixed so it would
swing around easy. I took a deal of
satisfaction in looking through it, the
sky seemed so wide and full of won
ders, so when Hester was here I
thought I'd give her the pleasure too.
She stayed a long time upstairs and
seemed to be enjoying it When she
came down I asked her if she’d dis
covered anything new.
“ ‘Yes,’ she says, ‘why, it made
everybody’s house seem so near that
I seemed to be right beside ’em, and
I found out what John Pritchard’s
folks are doin’ in their outkitchen.
I've wondered what they had a light
there for night after night, and I just
turned the glass on their windows.
They are cuttin' apples to dry—folks
as rich as them cuttin’ apples!’
“And actually that was all the wom
an had seen! With the whole heav
ens before her to study, she had spent
her time prying into the affairs of her
neighbors! And there are lots more
like her—with and without tele
scopes.”—Christian Uplook.
_
Pine Cakes.
The modern farmer touched various
attractive cakes on the shelf.
“This is an oak cake,” he said.
‘‘That is a pine one. The row above
are walnut. All these cakes are actu
ally made of wood. They are a new
cattle food—the invention of Prof.
Heinrich Reh—that I have imported
from Berlin.
“Reh points out that the animals
like young shoots, roots of shrubs,
bark—hence his saw-dust food, en
riched with a mixture of potato peel
ings, cornhusk and the residue of the
sugar beet after the extraction of the
sugar.
“It is said that this food, the cheap
est known, agrees with cattle. And
why shouldn’t it? It is rich in albu
men, nitrogen and fats—much richer
than straw. I propose to give it a fair
trial. If it does all that is claimed
for it, the price of milk ought to come
down 50 per cent.”
are in 9 cases out of 10 the result of Eye-Strain, which if
relieved by glasses in early life would never cause crossed
eves.
Preliminary symptoms of Eye troubles that cause crossed
eyes are: Pain in back of eyes; pain in temples, sometimes
running over ears: print jumps after reading for a time.
These are strong symptoms that the eyes will soon cross un
less the eye-strain is removed.

Worse Than Earthquakes
Speaking of volcanoes, earthquakes
and other greatconvulsions of Nature,
it may be well to remember that
there are some things even more de
structive: witness a tale that is told
of an occurrence during the earth
quake in Charleston, South Carolina,
several years ago.
A resident of the shaken city, while
he felt that his duties required him
to remain there to do what he might
for the sufferers, sent his six-year-old
to the youngster's grandfather in
New York. Three days after the
boys’ arrival the Charleston man re
ceived this telegram from his father:
“Send us your earthquake and take
back your boy.”—Woman’s Home
