FAMOUS RELIGIOUS EDITOR.
The famed Bible defender, the venerable Pastor Russell of London and Brooklyn Tabernacles, has won unstinted praise from the press and public of many nations by forty years' unceasing activity as evangelist and writer. In the early part of his ministry smaller cities were frequently visited, but not so now, since his field of operation has become world-wide, and the urgent invitations to deliver free public lectures in the largest cities have become so nnmerons that even ail of these cannot be accepted. 1 For the past several years Pastor Russell haß made semi-annual foreign tours, and, through the press reports of bis meetings held in large public halls ©f the leading cities, be has received mucb favorable comment and publicity. Wonderful Drawing Power. As a public speaker on Bible topics. Pastor Russell stands unrivaledstands alone in a place created by his own individual work, a place not previously attained nor occupied by another. The mammoth crowds that repeatedly assemble to hear him at every opportunity is conclusive evidence as to bis drawing power. Last year, while conducting a series of Sunday meetings in the London Royal Albert Hal]| Pastor Russell received written communications through the mail from more than six thousand persons, requesting printed copies of his sermons. So spontaneous a demand was both unprecedented and unlooked for. Another evidence of his popularity on the other side of the rolling blue Is the publication of his weekly sermons in something over three hundred papers in England, Ireland, Scotland, Australia. The Editor of Great Britain’s foremost family paper. The People's Journal, has so aptly commented and acted on the matter that we can do no better than to quote here the heart-to-heart talk he gave his readers. He said:— A Wonderful Preacher. "It is not the non-church-going tendencies of the Age that I want to talk to you about, although my ‘theme’ is more or less closely connected with that subject You have all. I think, heard of Pastor Russell, the wonderful American preacher, who has Just been inducted to the charge of the London Tabernacle, known all over the United Kingdom and* thousands of miles beyond, as the pulpit of the revered Spurgeon. Mr. Russell has achieved a position in the world of religious thought unequaled by any living Divine. And, curiously enough, he delivers his message to far more people ‘outside’ the church than could ever be brought together within the walls of the largest temple In the Universe. His sermons and writings have won for themselves an extraordinary popularity in America and I am credibly Informed that Pastor Russell’s printed books on religious subjects are excelled In circulation only by the Bible Itself. Just think what this means. It means that millions of people all over the world have found something In Pastor Russell’s sermons, essays and lectures which they have been unable to discover in any other religious writings apart from the Great Book itself. A Weekly Talk. "Now, to come to the crux of the matter. I feel sure that the vast majority of my readers will learn with pleasure that I have arranged for a weekly contribution from the pen of Pastor Russell. A ‘sermonette’ Mr. Russell himself calls It, but I have an idea it will be found to be something more, something fuller, than merely a condensed sermon. I have been reading a selection of the famous Pastor’s religious writings, and they appeal to me as being more of the nature of quiet, discursive talks on serious subjects than sermons or pulpit deliverances of the conventional description. Pastor Russell is a clear, easily understood thinker; he eschews dogma and all subtleties of form and faith, snd he Bays what he has to say on the great truths of religion and morals in plain but always beautiful language. He speaks and writes not only to the ordinary church-goer, as we accept the phrase, but to all intelligent men and women, and I for one can quite well appreciate tbe unparalleled popularity which be has achieved in America—a popularity, I feel convinced, he will very soon equal in this country. Pastor ,Russell’s talks will begin in the Journal next week, and 1 am hopeful that they will be an extremely popular feature of the Journal.’-' The Press of America. Pastor Russell’s popularity abroad does not deprive him of tbe honor of preaching to the largest congregation In America. Surprising as it may seem, his Bermons are at present published in more than one thousand newspapers in America, reaching approximately ten million homes weekly. ■Last June and July, while making a trans-continental tour to attend the Bible Students Convention at San Francisco, Pastor Russell made several stops en route, and the reception everywhere accorded the “American Spurgeon” was most heart-cheering. Many excellent accounts of his meetings were published. ‘‘The San Francisco Call,” In making reference to what other papers were saying, interestingly summarized as follows: "Pastor Russell's given name has been lost to public record during the last ten years, in which he has been famous as the great ‘Pastor’—plain Pastor Russell—who has s\\ ayed hundreds of thousands In this country and abroad. "Do they come to hear hinj? . Well, rather! So far it has been impossible to engage a hall large enough to hold the crowds. Dreamland Rink has been hired for this occasion. In Kansas City, .Denver, Salt Lake and Los Angeles the Pastor and his faithful crew have taken the : populace by storm. The newspapers have given him more space than a war scare •and print his. speeches like a Presidential 'message.”
Has Many Interpreters. Pastor Russell recently returned from a “Round-the-Worid” Tour. His was a two-fold work, as he by appointment was to Investigate certain matters pertaining to Foreign Mission activities, and also to deliver public adLdresses In Great Britain. Greece, India, Ceylon, China, Japan, etc He Is soon to leave on another Tour, which will Include nearly all of the countries not previously visited by him. Thus the declaration that the “Gospel of the Kingdom” shall be preached as a witness to all nations in all the world will, by the end of this year, practically be fulfllled by him alone.
ROPE FOR ALPINE CLIMBERS
It Is of Bpecial Manufacture and Combines Strength, Flexibility and_ Lightness. The rope used by Alpine climbers Is of special manufacture, combining as far as possible the differing qualities of strength, flexibility and lightness. Three qualities are in general use, being made from Sisal, Italian and Manilla hemps respectively, and occasionally, when cost is not considered, of silk. The latter, though very light and strong, is not so durable as the others. That which finds most favor among British mountaineers is known as Buckingham’s Alpine rope; it is made of tbe best Manilla hemp. In the year 1864, Mr. McLeish recalls, a committee of the Alpine club made tests upon- a number of ropes suitable for mountaineering. Of the two that were approved one was made of Italian hemp and the other of Manilla. They both had a breaking strain of two tons and sustained the weight of a twelve stone mats after falling from a height of ten feet. Non-mountaineers have sometimes considered this insufficient, but it is highly problematical whether the human anatomy could survive the sudden compression of,a thin rope arising from any greater fall.—Fry’s Magazine.
STILL OBSERVE MARKET DAY
Canadian Cltlea Preserve a Worthy Old Institution Brought Over From Great Britain. “Market day,” for ages an institution in England, still exists in certain localities, and may still be studied with Interest by the tourist who visits Halifax, Nova Scotia, or Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island, where large enclosures and roomy market houses are maintained for the benefit of the country people and such citizens as have established a regular market business. Everything from live stock to a bouquet of flowers may be brought here for sale, the owner being allotted a suitable place and charged a small fee for his accommodation, and while most of the market people are far from being especially rustic in their dress or speech, the variety and sometimes the peculiarity or their offerings still suggest the Important part which the English market and its legal oontrol played In the local and business life of three centuries ago.—Charles Winslow Hall, in National Magazine.
How Rome Was Saved.
“How are you on ancient history?” inquired the Wood street man. "Fine,” declared the sage of Smithfield street. “Ask me anything you want to know.” “I was trying to recall the facts about those geese that cackled and thus save Rome.” “I remember the episode. You see, Rome was a very rich city in ancient days, filled with gold and precious stones. Some invaders had gathered in hopes of getting big loot.” “1 see.” “But when they heard the geese cackling, they thought they’d better grab the geese and let the gold go. The cost of living was just as high then as it is now.” "I comprehend.” “They made off with the geese and thus Rome was saved.” —Pittsburgh Post
Had to Rename His Villa.
The residents of a certain suburb of Chicago were for a time governed by a passion for giving sweet, poetical names to their “estates.” There was one such man who built a handsome villa, calling it “The Nutshell.” Thus was tbe home introduced to his friends, and it became widely known. To the surprise of all, therefore, the name was one day suddenly changed to “Sylvan Nook,” and a flood of inquiries Soon began to pour in. "Why have you given your home a new name?” a friend asked. "What was the matter with ‘The Nutshell?’ ” “I sickened of being joshed about it," said the owner, with a sigh. “There isn’t a boy within two miles hereabouts who hasn’t stopped and rung the doorbell to ask If the colonel was in.” —Llppincott’s Magazine.
French Revolutionary Months.
The order of the months in the French revolutionary calendar beginning with September 22 the tour was Vendemiare, Brumaire, Frimiare, Nivose, Pluvioee, Ventose, Germinal, Floreal, Prairial, Messidor, Thermidor (Fervidor) and Fructidor, which ended on September 16. Then followed five days, the Sansculotides, .dedicated as feasts of reason to Les Vertus, Le Genie, Le Travail, L’Oplnlon and Les Recompenses. Decreed November 24, 1793, this calendar was antedated to September 22, 1792. It was abolished on tfivose 10, An xiv, corresponding to December 31, 1805.
Truth.
“None of use," we are told, “likes his own qualities when he sees them reflected in others.” Probably many respectable people will take it for a paradox in all good faith. For we all know that we live by choice with people who are like ourselves. We seek and ensue those of similar tastes, similar virtues and similar vices. And with people of different framework we are uncomfortable. Your good hourgeoise gets on badly with people who are unconventional. Your Bohemian rages furiously when constrained to the society of-the ordinary.
Does a Man Love a Woman Like a Woman Loves a Wan?
This question is asked and answered in a new play of New York, entitled “A Girl of the Underworld,” by the well known author, Jack Gorman. The play is full of good comedy situations with plenty of dramatic situations and good heart interest. A splendid acting company, headed by Miss May Manning, together with a complete scenic production is carried.

At Wednesday’s session of the Indiana federation of labor a resolution was presented by the cigarmaker’s union calling on Albert J. Beveridge, progressive candidate for governor, to explain why he had not fulfilled his alleged promise to stop a Detroit cigar factory employing child labor from manufacturing a cigar bearing his name. The resolution requested Mr. Beveridge to demand that the firm discontinue the use of his name on tjje brand of cigars so long as it continues to employ children in its factory.
The following is Governor Durbin’s attitude on the temperance question, as expressed in his keynote speech: “County local option wag adopted as a republican platform priciple four years ago. A republican legislature placed a county local option law upon the statute books; a republican governor signed it. I believed two years ago that the republican party should have the courage to commend its own work, to stand by what it had done. I declared myself publicly, to this effect, prior to the Jast republican convention. But at the republican state convention of 1910 the influence in control ©f the convention abandoned this issue, and while endorsing every other important enactment of the republican party in Indiana, treated this measure with significant silence. The republican party, for the first time in its history, deliberately turned its back on an important part of the republican party. And it fell at the end of that campaign, not only shot, but shot in the back —running away from a responsibility. If elected governor of Indiana ; t shall, in fulfillment of this platform, pledge my party’s endeavor to have restored to the statute books the county local option law. The only hope of securing progressive temperance legislation in Indiana lies in the success of the Republican state and legislative tickets.”
