Tin Senator cays that* word from President lo J. Pier font. Morgan would cause the whole conspiracy to stop. Has this country reached such a pitiaulb condition that one man, a Wu" Street, banker, J. Pierpont Morgan, controls both the financial and railroad interests of this country? it looks like lie is the supreme boss of the Cleveland adminliii'titiou and is in absolute control. The American people, however, have become righteously indignant, and once hey g- a chanc at this money sli.u'l Morgan and the men he controls, they win oe swept off the political board forever.

A XYP.f.-tnre sit the Friends Church. Samuel A. Purdie, who has been a missionury for the Friends' church in Mexico for 24 years, will lecture at the Friends' church here Wednesday night. His subject will be "Spanish America" and the lecture no doubt will be quite interesting. There are two subjects we should know more about, one is t\e history and resources of our own country, and the other is, we should be well Acquainted with oar neighboring countries.

OBITUARY.

Olive Dubois, wife of Sidney A. McKelvey, "ssas born June 24, 1863, and was united in marriage with Sidney A. McKelvey, Dec. 12, 1877. To them were born iluee children, two sons and one daughter, all of whom are living. She made a profession of faith in Christ and joined the Friends' church in 1887. In the last year she had manifested more interest in the work of the church and was often heard to praise the Lord for his mmy biessings to her. Her sickness was of four weeks' duration, which wf~ b^re with tho greatest Christian fortitude, not even a murmur escaping her lips. She was a loving and affectionate wife, a de\ otad mother and kind neighbor. Her last testimony was, "I have made it all right," and she peacefully passed away. She leaves a husband, three children, father and mother, one brother and a host of relatives and friend* LO mourn her loss. She departed this life Oct. 18, 1895, aged 32 years, 4 months and nine days. A FRIEND.

Tho Hi^li School Luctm Course. Those who are organizing the High School Lecture Course have not secured a sufficient number of subseribers for season tickets to make the course an assured fact. They have on the program the finest lecture talent in this country and the only thing necessary to make it a certainty that Greenfield will have as fine a lecture course as there will be in the state, is for a few more public spirited citizens to subscribe for tickets. The work of the committee is entirely disinterested, as they subscribe and pay for tickets as others do and get no pay for their labor. Such a committee deserves and should have tho sympathy and liberal support of our citizens. Greenfield has had two fine lecture courses, and we should have one this year. Let it not be said that we are retrograding. Come to the aid of th® committee and come at once, as they have to inform the lecture bureau at onc« as to the lecturers and the dates desired. See H. D. Barrett or Misses Woodward and Herrick of the High School.

Rev. John Heim, who lives epst of the city, -rill hold aei vice at t-h« Cedar grov« church, four miles Northwest of Greenfield, on Sunday. Oct. 27th, at 10:80 a. m. All who live near the church and have formerly worshiped there, are requested to be present, and if the people desire it, the paster will hold service every two weeks there after. All come if il is a day fit for service. If it is a rainy day, you stay at home and the Paster will do the same.

Alaskans'Wilf Fight.

SEATTLE, Wash., Oct. 22.—The steamship City of Topeka, which has just arrived from Alaska, brings newti that the people at Juneau and the mining camps are greatly exercised over the boundary question and say they will fight before Great Britain shall take the gold fields from them. They express much dissatisfaction at the dilatory and apparently disinterested way in which the United States government fails to act in protecting that rich country.

A Joke on Jojo.

GREENVILLE, O., Oct. 23.—"Jojo" Marshall, residing near Russia, Shelby county, buys calves for a firm a Piqua, O., and Saturday evening while returning home late he fell from, the top of his wagon on the 'shafts. His horse stopped, and for a joke some passers-by placed him in his calf-box and locked him up, where he remained for II hours. It completely sobered him up and may lessen his alcoholic indulgence hereafter.

CULTTJEE TIE HEART

HAVE WE BECOME HOLIER AS WE HAVE BECOME WISER?

Rev. Dr. Madison C. Peters Doubts if Our Moral and Spiritual Welfare i. tionate to Our Mental Progress—The Roli^ion the World Needs.

On Sunday evening, Oct. 20, Dr. Madiecr: C. Peters, at Bloomingdale church, New York, took fur his test Genesis xxv, 8, "And Abraham gave up the ghost, and died in a good old age, an old man, and satisfied."

Abraham was a strong minded, great and noble man, pure in his feelings, correct in his opinions, unshaken in his faith. He was a practical philanthropist. He had a substantial sympathy for the suffering of others. He was hospitable. Ho loved the souls of his fellow men, and sought to improve and save them. He was a kind neighbor, faithful to his kindred. Every man was his brother. He unselfishly gave his life for posterity We behold in him exalted good seldom realized in these days of culture. I would not recall those ignorant times of 3,000 years ago, but I like to study the course of the men of old. Such retrogression is an advance. Among the men of old the culture of the heart was of more importance than with us. Our boast is that .enlightenment has everywhere penetrated. But does our moral and spiritual welfare stand proportionate to our mental progress? Have we become holier as we have become wiser? Is not the head cultivated at the expense of tho heart?

It is your Christian duty to cultivate your intellectual faculties, but it is yet more so your duty to ennoble and spiritualize your affections. If you would live, you must think. But if you would bo happy you must be good. Your head filled with knowledge will not make you so happy as to have your hearts full of virtue. Abraham may not have known as much as we do, or think we do, but see what he effected. Abraham's life teaches us that our true destination -ever will be to form the heart for all that is great, noble and holy.

Religion a Life.

Religion does not consist in knee bending, hand folding, idle words andlifeless oreeds, but the conseoration of the inward man to God, doing justice and loving meroy. The religion our world needs is that of Christ, which consists in breaking our bread to the hungry, in clothing the naked, in speaking the truth in our hearts, in protecting innocence, in doing no evil, but in doing good to all riien as we have opportunity. This was Abraham's religion this is Christ's would that it were ours! Religion has been so much misrepresented,so many garments of superstition have been hung about her, that to many really thoughtful people she has become an object of derision. Could religion but once appear in her true form and practically follow him "who went about doing good," all hearts would be turned to her, ail lips would praise her, and she would be everywhere a welcome guest "Abraham died in a good old age." Many attain to a gray old age, but a gray old age is not always a good old age. Is your gray head a crown of glory or a fool's cap? The path of virtue alone leads to a good old age.

It is not true that the good die young. "The wicked do not live out half their days." Abraham lived to be 175 years old. But length of life should not be measured by the number of years we live, but by what has been accomplished therein. If you have done all that you had in your power to do, you can look upon your life with satisfaction, lay down your head and close your eyes in peace. A few years nobly lived may achieve a glorious record. We live in deeds, not yearB in thoughts, not breaths In feelings, not in figures on a dial. We should count time by heart throbs. He most lives Who thinks most, feels the noblest, acts the best. And he whose heart beats the quickest lives the longest, Lives in one hour more than in years do some Whose fat blood sleeps as it slips along their veins.

Earthly Immortality.

Earthly immortality cannot satisfy the longings of the soul. It is a sweet consolation to be remembered on earth in our actions. If there is any tranquillity of mind, any delight of soul, any joy of spirit, any pure Consolation of heart, it is found, where Abraham found it, in the pursuit and practice of virtue. But this consolation, satisfaction, arose from the well grounded hope of future bliss. Abraham was satisfied because he was an heir of God's kingdom. Could you have taken from him this hope, the sunshine in his heart would have been exchanged for gloom.

Abraham had faith in the perfection of God, and this faith whispered in his ears the evangel of immortality. Sure of this he could take his harp, and in the midst of death sing:

Light after darkness, gain after loss, Near after distant, gleam after gloom, Love after loneliness, life after tomb.

Tied In HJa Mind.

There is a dog owner in Philadelphia who tells a story concerning his equina companion that tries the belief of his friends, but he vouches for its truth. The dog is an intelligent looking animal of the shepherd variety, and is frisky and full of fun. The particular trait of which its master boasts is that when he wants the animal to stay in one place it is not necessnry to tie him up. All that is needed is to fasten one end of a rope to a convenient post and give the other end to the dog to hold in his mouth. The patient animal will sit for hours in this way, and would no more run away than he would fly.—Philadelphia Record.

The 3anuer of Light is, as every one knows,one of themost successful denominational publications issued in this country.

In its 77th volume it is at once conservative and bright, discussing not only modern Spiritualism, but frequently lending its influence fearlessly in matters of public iJiporfc.ince outside its principal field.

Mr. John W. Day, who is the editor and one of the proprietors, writes in The Banner of Light as follows to the proprietors of Paine's celery compound: '*1 owe you a debt of gratitude in placing OH the market such a nerve-easing and and soothing remedy as Faines' celery compound. It was brought to my notice by a friend who had himself been greatly relieved by its use, as I have also been. have frequently takeu occasion to comuien'l Paine's celery compound to others, and I do no* know an instance wherein, if faithfully tried, it has not worked a benefit. "Yours truly, John W. Day."

is made for that multitude of people who love stories in the good old sense of the word—not merely "studies in character." nor "stories with a purpose," nor "mosaics of style," but, first of all, stories that are good stories, full of life and vigor and action—the sort of thing that arrests the reader's attention at the start and engrosses it to the end.

has printed stories by Robert Louis Stevenson, Mary E. Wilkin-!, Rudyard Kipling, Alphonse Daudet, Frances Hodgson Buruetc, A. Conan Doyle, Octave Thanet, Erckmann Chatrian, Moritz Jokai, Leo N.

It is edited by the well-known wfriter, Mrs. Kate Upson Clark, and will publish during 1895 a series illustrating different varieties of the short story, which possess a distinctive charm.

Mr. Day's portrait is given above. He is a member of the Masonic, Odd Fellows Grand Army and other fraternal organizations, and is highly esteemed by his brethern and others in the social walks of life.

His gratitude for the good that this greatest of remedies has done him is in no sense remarkable.
