I’he stoiui of last Sabbath tested the bravery and loyalty i of the people, and as usual those who faced its hardships were not disappointed and found the services specially helpful and encouraging. The building committee resumed its delibera tions this week and are again taking up the problems of plans suitable to our needs, and the means for raising the necessary money. They will need all the encouragement we can give them in their work. Next Sabbath morning the pastor will preach on'‘Teachings peculiar to.leses’’ and in the evening “The Slough of Despond, how we get into it, and how to get out again, and keep out.’’ Our Sabbath school will bear still further improve ment, as we need more of the larger people to attend its ses sion, and then more of our chil dren to get the habit of attend ing church service instead of going home at II o’clock. Our worship is public, our Seats are all free, and our welcome is ex. tended to rich and poor, friend and stranger alike, h’rv. W. Cooim:k Ifui.rv. Pastor.

Hate and avoid the awful sham of pretending to keep the sacred season with “extraordinary acts and exer cises of devotion," while secret ly consulting your own conven ience and Indulging your ordi nary appetites of the llesh and mind. Lent is a season of humanity, of self-denial, of renewed conse cration. of faithful service. Try 9 to realize the spirit of (lie time m all your religious duties and observances. By real self Ue nial and real devotion to Christ, try to get nearer to God and come into touch with His Holy Spirit. Beware lest you receive the grace of God in vain! Be diligent in attending the Lenten services, that y o u r minds may be drawn more fre quently to spiritual things. Do not let small inconveniences and obstacles hinder you from coming to God's house. Let self denial begin just here, that it may spread over the whole compass of thoughts and Life. Make this Lent a real work of devotion, so that with the Lord you may have a holy and happy L ister. Your Friend and Hector. Gkokiii. Litii.i.

' The streets are from fifteen to thirty feet wide and packed with throngsof merchants, beggars and fakirs. It had Cairo defeated when it comes to being cosmopolitan. They will take any money that was ever stamped out bv any country in payment for their wares- On the old slave market, now used as a produce trading mark, you can see them bartering fish for fruits, etc. It certainly is interesting to be a looker-on and take note of the novel sights. I walked all o\*er and went to the prison and saw the convicts working. Was a very tilths' place. Addressed my postals at the Ame rican Consulate thereafter wrang ling prices for halt an hour over a queer tom-tom for a souvenir, all oyer a shilling.

DIED AT SALEM She Leaves a Husband And Two Children The entire community of Salem sustained a very sad shock when news was received that Alice j Kelly was dead. Full of life but a few days ago it came as a great surprise and it is hard to realize that she is no more. Alice Ad ams was born Dec. Kith, 1SGG, died at the home of her mother near Salem. Wednesday, Feb. 10, 1000, age 40 years, 1 month and 1s days. She was married to James Kelly. March S, IS,so, and to this union were born a son and daughter, both of whom are liv ing to mourn the loss of a loving mother, Mrs. Kelly was converted to i Christ twenty-four years ago and was baptized by the Rev. W. N. Potter, and united with the Chris tian Church, of which she has ever been a iaithful, true and con sistent member. That the com munity has sustained a great loss is attested by the fact that she was universally loved. To the faithful husband and sorrowing children will the loss be irreparable and no finer tribute could be (laid a wife than the words of her husband, which is a testimony of her faithfullness “She has been a consistant Chris tian and has done nothing to j cause regret.” She was a faithful worker in j Church, IJible School and Society and her presence will be sorely j missed, but more than all. in the I home, for she manifested a great | love for the notne and there will tier loss be more keenly felt, and to the sorrowing husband and i children is extended the love and sympathy of the entire com munity. She leaves beside the husband and children, a mother, three sis ters, three brothers and a host of relatives and friends to mourn her loss. The funeral services were con ducted from the Christian church at Salem. Thursday,* Feb. 11. at' 2 p m. by the Kev. F. Ellsworth I Day. of Falls City. The floral offerings were very beautiful and were a silent testi mony of the tender love and sym pathy o! the entire community. May the loving Father give help and strength to the loved ones in this hour of sorrow is the prayer ol all. BIG LAND DEAL Mr Ulmer Pays $25,600 For The Hummel Farm What mav be regarded as the j biggest land transaction ever made in this vicinity occurred this week, when Emanuel Ulmer pur chased the W. G. Hummell farm I consisting of one-hundred and sixty acres, adjoining his farm, tor twenty-five thousand six hun dred dollars. Mr. Hummell gets the use of the farm until March of next year free of charge. This is the largest price ever paid for a farm in this vicinity, but the place is well worth it, con sidering the quality of the soil and the improvements. Mr. Ulmer now owns four hun dred acres of the finest farming I • • ^ land in Richardson county. He has his original place of one-hund red and sixty acres, an eighty on the south of that, and the Hum mel place, adjoining his farm on ‘ the west- This makes his place | worth close to seventy-five thous and dollars, and places him in the list of large land holders of the county. Mr. Hummell will farm another year, and will then doubtless re tire and enjoy the fruits of his labors. —Dawson News Boy.

The question is a debateable nnc, and some distinguished authorities have taken opposite sides in the discussion. Doubt less those who contend for the acted drama have the advan tage tor the simple reason that there are so few opportunities to hear a play well read, Such an opportunity was presented last evening by S. H. Clark. He is a distinguished reader and 1 teacher. He is a man of scholar ly attainments and artistic dis crimination, tie is surprising ly successful in his interpreta tion of the several characters, and also in his presentation of the story. He is modest in his personations, and yet by skilful modulations of voice -or rather from character conceptions that make their own modulations - he detines his people and pres ents the temperamental con trasts, the varying motives and the poetic beauties of the play, in such a way as to hold even an audience that would not be classed as a gathering of stu dents.’’ Kansas City Journal. “Ma s New Husband Do you want to see the tunni est lesson ever given a boy by his teacher?
