Near the edge of the walk was another boy, walking briskly along, whistling, happy, at peace with all the world. A cable car passed northward and there was still a third boy on the grip.

Buddhism and Christianity are at one in this, that they peiceive that our life here is but a moment and, if rightly lived, It must be lived in view of an eternal life or a life hereafter. Life does not cease with our departure, it still continues beyond; and that life beyond will be shaped by the life here. Indeed, no discrimination can lie ma le on grounds of time. A fall from a horse, contact with a fever germ— these things cannot change the nature of eternal life. Bo the fjuddah teaches, so Jesus teaches. Bternul life t» something here and now, if it ever Is to be. Both teachers insist on this. Yet, ore' more, there is here a strange difference of emphasis, for that which is

nouncing that dinner was ready, and for the guests to assemble about the tables that had been arranged in the form of a hollow square. In a very short time the command wus obeyed and after an invocation by Rev. \V. K. Weaver, a general attack was made “all along the line.” Such an array of edibles as was upon the tables has seldom been seen, and every tiling wus of the very best and well pre pared and bountifully served. The assault lasted until the hungriest person present was fully satisfied, and still there was an abundance left. After dinner the burses that were about the grounds were fed, and after a short rest, which was enjoyed by all, the people were again called together about the stand that hud been erected in u dense shade. President J, M. Hdlis announced that no set program had been arranged but that some recitations had been prepared for the occasion and called upon those persons to come forward at once and the exercises would begin. The following program was then rendered; By quartette Merry Men are We, Old Kentucky Home, Three Black Crows; solo by Paul Burlingame—My Gal’s a high ho’n Lady. Recitations were then given by the following young misses: Jennie Hillis, Clara Hillis, Hlutu-hr Hillis and Edna Jones, each id' which were well received by the audience. Mr. Abo McCarty of Ar kansas, q former resident of Putnam county, was called upon for remarks and responded with many incidents of early life in Putnam countv paying quite a tribute to the older members of the Hillis family and other early settlers of the county. Mr. McCarty mani(csted considerable feeling al times. Mr. George B Hillis was the next speaker introduced. His talk was in an easy, conversational manner and Itad many good points of comparison. Rev. W. K. Wcayer of the Presbyterian church was the next speaker to respond. His re marks were timely and to the point. He began his remarks by saying that “during the month of August of each year be was u Hillis.” He paid quite a tribute to the Hillis family and commended the idea of having more family reunions, that

Healthy Signs of the Times.

The services at Locust Street church yesterday though varying somewhat from the usual order were up to the standard in interest. In the morning a sermon was preached on “Infant Baptism” after which five children were pre sented for baptism. In the evening the pastor preached on the questi hi •‘lu the world growing bet- | terV” The conclusion presented i was tbut the world is steadily improving, that the church of Christ is steadily winning its way. This conclusion was based on the marked advancement in useful arts and inventions, the improvement of mind touching superstition, the attainment of equal rights and the en couraging condition of the church especially iu these regards; a more rational faith, a higher ethical standard, a better translation of the Bilile and a better understanding of it, and a larger fraternity among churches. The objection, that worldliness is increasing in the church, Sabbath desecration is alarmingly prevalent and the saloon trallli' is better equipped for evil was met by the thought that any evil is less dangerous when so oiety sees the'enormity of it and prepares for concerted action against it. That the leaders in the church view with great alarm these conditions that threaten the kingdom is well known and full of encouragement for the future. Owing to the illness of Prof. Naylor the choir was not so well prepared for singing and Mr. Harry Maxwell greatly contributed to the service

by singing a choice solo.

At this the sweet little husband bent over and kissed his wife fondly. It was easy to see that they were deeply at-

tached to each other.

"What do you mean by that?” "Bright and Interesting, but provokingly long In operation,” replied the doctor.
