their production for the market. Mr. Huntington is a successful farmer business man. He has land in both Hancock and Marion county is connected with business enterprises in Indianapol's and is president of the Cumberland bank. He has always been a cattle raiser and believes in progressive methods of stock raising. When many farmers said beef cattle could not be raised profitably in Indiana in competition with the grazed cattle of the west', Mr. Huntington was raising cattle and making money on them. He has never been so strong an advocate of corn fed cattle as some stock raisers. His theory has always been that the cattle should be developed uponfgrasses and ruffness off of the farm. Such cattle are not expert cattle of course, but they are good beef cattle for home markets and make the very best kind of beef. He is firmly of she belief that the United States can consume the greater part of its beef product, and that if corn fed cattle Are not profitable stock raisers'can raise the other class of beef.

Mr. Huntington thinks that farmers should raise a beef 1 strains of cattle that produce large quantities of milk which make them profit producing in two lines.

II ROMANCE OFiPERU

er

In 1522{Robert Morton, an Englishman of good[family, and secretary to Henry VII, wps sent by that monarch on!an important mission to Charles oft Spain and the Pope. The ship by which he traveled was lost at sea, and after floating about awhile on a spar Morton was picked up by a Spanish galleon and finally landed on the east coast of South America, at Darlenna. From this point he crossed the isthmus and joined an expedition which Pizarro was fitting out for the looting and subjugation of the rich peoples farther south. The expedition landed and went into camp on the Peruvian coast, with a view to reconnoitering the country in search of plunder. Morton one day strayed too far from his ccmrades and was captured by a party of Peruvian soldiers and carried to Quito. He was treated kindly, the aim of the Peruvians being to learn something about the all-conquering white mien, concerning whom they had heard alarming reports. Morton became very popular with his captors, married a princess and in time grew so popular and useful that only the Inca exceeded him in authority. He lived seven years in Peru, and during that time participated actively in the government and was of great assistance in wars waged by Peru against other countries and in the internecine conflicts which sometimes convulsed the people.

Morton himself tells the story, and it is intensely interesting from beginning to end. The habits, customs, religion and civilization of an ancient people are described in simple but vivid style, and the more exciting incidents are related with an animation and intensity not often surpassed. Morton endeavored to convert the Inca to Christianity, but failed. "Prayers," he says, "I knew in plenty, and songs and psalms, but what good were these in the conversion of a heathen who could calmly say as he pointed to the sun: "There is my god. and he hath v. tailed me or my people. Food :tj. raiment and happiness he brings ns, and he is with ns now and everrn/.re. lie spake creation into birth he wai- wh-n time was unmeasured, res- man had searched out the secrets el he imiver.-e and before the heaven h.sd unlocked their gates to the sons o! me... He smiled upon the glories of th«j ii!.t: morn, when the young ear is eiothed herself in the bloom and verdure of paradise. Poised in majesty above the earth, he watches ovor his children. He controlleth the separate fates ol Empires, giving to some dominion and glory and splendor, and to others happiness and peace and contentment. When he dies time will cease to be, and the earth and the stars and the universe will be rolled up as a scroll and chaos will reign.' "What answer, I say, could prayers and psalms make to this? Truly, a well fortified error may rout with ease an unsupported truth."

Morton is a high and heroic character and his deeds of arms recall those of the greatest heroes of chivairic romance. After seven years of this sort of life, Pizarro and his cutthroats invaded, conquere^ and plundered the country. Morton fell into his hands, but finally escaped with his princess-wife and children and made his way to England. The introductory is a brief little romance of itself and relates to Boston's famous "Corner Bookshop" and its eccentric owner, Ruthven_C. Smith. All the foregoing will be found in "The Unstrung Bow," by David O. Batchelor, an Indiana author, whose first book it is, and fiction readers will tender him a vote of thanks for th story and feel gratified over the annoutace-

ment that he is in possession of other material which he intends converting into stories for their edification. Pub lished by Sherman, French & Co. Boston.

UNTIL ITS SUCCESS

Pastor Says He Will Not Give Up Until

Victory Perches Upon Banner

of Christ.

A revival was launched at the Bradley Methodist Episcopal church Sunday with no time limit set, but it is to continue, the pastor says, until victory perches on the banner of Christ. The meetings are in charge of the pastor Rev. Leslie J. Naftzger who did not ask for an evangelist to help him.

The church has been making preparation for the work of this revival by engaging in numerous cottage prayer meetings weekly during the past month and the morning sermon Sunday was followed by an old time class meeting in which, the membership represented, pledged themselves to the work in hand.

Several minutes before the evening service began the auditorium of the church was fairly filled and the service was opened with a song service including two special selections by choir or members of the choir. Rev. Barnes, who is the guest of Dr. A. C. Barnes, made the opening prayer.

Rev. Naftzger preached on hindrances to the cause of God, taking as a basis for his sermon, the passage of scripture which reads as follows: "And He did not many works there because of their unbelief."

After giving the settng for the above scriptural saying, when the message of Christ was discounted, because the peeple about him knew his parents, brothers and sisters and would not accept him as the Savior of the world because of this knowledge, Rev. Naftzger made the application, declaring that we of this age should not discount the message because of the messenger or the church because of the preacher.

He gave five hindrances to the cause of Christ and work of the church and discussed each in turn at length. They were unbelief, indifference, timidy, an undue sense of propriety, and uncertainty in regard to our own relation to God.

The closest attention was given throughout the sermon which was an earnest plea for the church people to get right and ready for the revival and then go out after others. No day meetings have been announced for this week. The evening- services will commence at 7:30 arid the first fifteen minutes will be devoted to song' service.

A STRONG APPEAL FORMIWL

Pastor Preaches To the Church First—

Revival Comes Down, Not Worked

Up—Meeting Wednesday.

A strong appeal was made to the church Monday night by Rev. Naftzer for the revival which is in progress. The service opened with an enthusiastic song service ia which the congregation took part with the. choir/ The sermon of Rev. Naftzger was a strong appeal to the church to get in complete harmony with the work arid let the revival start with them as it must before it can spread to others.

He read the 51st Psalm as a scripture lesson and used as a text a part of the prayer of the prophet Habakkuk in the 3rd chapter and second verse which reads as follows, "Oh Lord revive Thy work." Rev. Naftzger said it looked like the Christain people should always at all times have a revival in their hearts and lives bat that it seemed to be necessary to have special seasons of effort and refreshings. This seems to be a part of God's plan. The history of the work throughout past ages is a history of revivals.

The persons who need the revival Rev. Naftzger said are first the preacher, second, membei's of the church third, the backslider, and especially indifferent christians and fourth, sinners. A revival must come down and is not worked up as is sometimes supposed and one does not need to vaccinate against it. When conditions are right, it will come, he said, and urged the members of the Bradley church to get in the right attitude to receive and help spread the revivai.. "Everything that lives off of the weaknesses of humanity are hindrances to a revival" Rev. Naftzger said among them he named, saloons, brothels, gambling, lust, greed, selfishness, indifference, love of ease etc.

These things must all be worked against and overcome in order to bring a revival down from above. Rev. Naftzger announced a meeting for Wednesday afternoon and each evening at 7:30 o'clock.

The Horse Market.

The horse buyers report the prices not so good as heretofore. They say that while this is the fact, the farmars are reluctant to sell their horses.
