K\-"y1 orty knows nlmnt "The Rain's ! Inrn" that free lance paper that has ict'ii biifu a force In the religious wotld. It has been "Independent" in every sense and has eschewed any i difccusslon or reference to those doc i trlnnl questions that have sot one-hull of the denominations of the land al swoid's I'oint against the oilier halt' . Uut maybe those who know about , ho paper do not know so much about the founder and , for many years tha editor , of Ram's Horn. A word about 'Rum's Horn" Brown will bo of par : icular interest al this time because le has been engaged by the Western Uedpath rhatitauqua System to devote Ills whole time the coming season tc lecturing at their summer assemblies Like so many of the great men ol the nation , Elij h P. Drown was born of a poor family , in a poor town in a poor industrial district of Ohio. 1I says that lie can not remember that his father ever hold him on his hip or that his mother ever kissed him Yet they were honest folks , oven church-fiolng Christians. They novel seemed to have time to got acquainted with their children and to realize thai their little hearts wore bleeding foi love. love.Tho The llttlo Elijah ran away from homo while yet a very little boy and became apprenticed to a printer.

" He became a devout believer In Ing- crsoll and was i roud of tlio intimate friendship that developed between the eminent iulldel and himself. It was after ho had become a mil lionaire publisher , n writer of great reputation and a lecturer of recog nized ability along the lines of his agnostic theories that by the merest chance Mr. Brown heard the great Moody preach a sermon before twen ty thousand people in Chicago. Drown wont to Booff ; ho stayed to consider and he went away to pray. IIo re turned to his homo In another state and struggled manfully with his doubts , but not being satisfied , ho re turned to Chicago and sought out Mr. Moody. That talk settled matters and the Infldel Brown became the Evan gelist Drown. It is a tale by Itself how he was a country preacher ; founded the "Ram's Horn" and lost hla fortune ; how ho continued the fight , with the aid of friends , until be finally put the paper on a paying basis and gave the world a new literature. It Is only of late that the "Ram's Horn Man" ban been filling Chautuu- qua dates , but be Is proving to bo a great success. Contrary to expecta tion Mr. Brown Is not soured by his early , talnful experience , but Is ono of the mrat humorous speakers on the American platform. lie believes that fun and gospel are the twin hand , maidens of human usefulness , B.
