SACRED CANTATA SUNDAY EVENING

"The Seven Last Words of Christ" Composition Will Be Rendered By M. E. Choir Next Sunday

The choir of the Bradley M. E. church, under the direction of Eugene E. Davis, will, on next Sunday evening, render the sacred Lenten cantata, "The Seven Last Words of Christ." by the eminent French composer,' Th. Dubois.

This composition, which is one of high merit and unusual character. has been heard but few times west of New York City, and then usuall in Episcopal churches. The subject of the cantata necessarily precludes anything of a light or frivolous nature, but the quiet, and dignified character of the composition is accented by a beauty of melody and richness of harmony that is at once pleasing and uplifting. Lovers of good music will be glad of the opportunity to hear this cantata.

If They're Wrong. They're Right A woman said the other day that her kind should be greatly pleased over the spring styles. She said that for the first time within the memory of the present generation women's garment are simple to construct. No portion of a dress is supposed to fit. and no part of it touches the figure, particularly, excepting an inside belt to which the rest of the garment is anchored. Should the amateur dressmaker be guilty of some gross error in the cutting of her material (as amateur dressmakers usually are) and it draws askew, or is miles too big. she simply gathers it up further into an "artistic'' drape. There is no neck line, shoulder line, arm's eye or waist line upon which to become stranded, and even the skirt line has been irregular with an upward hike in front. And still better news for the home dressmaker, who has had one thing to worry over, that of getting the bottom of the skirt perfectly even across the back.

The body contains phosphorus sufficient to make 483,000 matches. Phosphorus is one of fourteen elements composing the body—divided among bones, flesh, nervous system and other organs. The perfect health of body requires a perfect balance of the elements. These elements come from the food we eat—the stomach extracts and distributes them.

But if stomach is deranged—the balance of health is destroyed and the blood does not carry the proper elements to the different organs, and there is blood trouble—nerve trouble—heart trouble. Pain is the hungry cry of starved organs. Put the liver, stomach and organs of digestion ana nutrition into a condition of health. That is just what is done by

COST OF RAISING DAIRY COWS GIVEN BY EXPERTS

According to investigators in the Department of .Agriculture the average net cost of raising a dairy heifer one year old on a Wisconsin farm is -$30.52, and of a two year heifer, $64.41. These figures are applicable to other dairy districts in the North and East where land and feed values are similar to those in Wisconsin. They are based on data obtained from raising 117 calves from birth to the time they enter the dairy herd. The details, with a complete summary of the investigation, have recently been published by the Department of Agriculture in Bulletin No. 49. under the title of "The Cost of Raising a Dairy Cow."'

There are in the United States, over 21,000,000 dairy cows. These figures give some idea of the imjportance of this economic problem to the country as a whole, for these cows must be replaced fevery I few years. The cost of the production of these heifers is a large item in keeping down the profits of .the dairymen.

NOVEL FEATURE ADDED

Republican State Committee Will Have "School for Precinct Committeemen."

Indianapolis, April 7—The Republican State Committee has added to the program for the Republican State Convention to be held here on April 22d and 23d, what probably will prove the most novel convention feature ever offered by any party in the political history of Indiana. At 10 o'clock on the morning of April 22d, a "school for precinct committeemen" wmII be held in the assembly room of the Hotel Severin. The members of the faculty of this school will be former chairmen of llfb Republican State committee five in number. The "teachers" will be "Jack" Gowdy, former U. S. Consul General at Paris Charles S. Hernley, of New Castle, known when he was at the head of the organization as "the king of precinct committeemen" James P. Goodrich, Indiana member of the Republican National Committee George F. McCullough and Fred A. Sims, former secretary of state. The "school" will be called to order by Stale Chairman Hays, who will present his predecessors. These former chairmen, each of whom is a past master at the game of politics, will speak |n "Organization." It is expected that this school will be productive of much good and go far towards helping the present committee realize its aim to make the organization in Indiana this year one of the most efficient and effective in years.

Interest in the coming State Convention continues to grow. The impression prevails that the Republican who misses this convention will miss a history-making meeting and the strong demand ftr Convent ion seats I hat is in evidence is the result. Announcement was made at state headquarters today that no tickets will be sent out in advance—those who make reservations by mail can secure their tickets by calling at slate headquarters when they reach Indianapolis for the convention. The program for the convention has been completed. The night, of April 22d has been turned over to the Lincoln League, the officers of which will have charge of a big smoker that is to be held in the assembly room of (he Hotel Severin. The delegates,..by districts, in session in rooms at the stale house on the night of April 21st, will select the members of the convention committees. The convention committees will meet on the same evening. The first session of the convention proper will open at 2 p. m., April 22d. That night, smokers will be held at the Hotel Severin and the Marion Club, with music and addresses by prominent Republicans. The final session will open at 10 a. m., April 23d, when the platform will be adopted and the state ticket named.

Already word has reached state headquarters of the coming of a half dozen bands and a number of glee clubs. Old observers do not hesitate to predict that the convention will be one of the largest and liveliest ever'held.

POMEGRANATE SEED SENT 10 SOLDIER

Many People Were Interested in Plea of Civil War Veteran .Now in Soldiers' Home.

T. J. Alley, the Civil War veteran, who wrote from the Soldiers' Home at Los Angeles, Cal., for some pomegranate seed, will receive the desire of his heart in a few days, if he has not. already realized his hope. His plea for some seed of this fragrant fruit created a great deal of interest among the older people of Hancock county, who remember when they used to see the pomegranates growing in the garden at home. Many people tried to find some seed to send this old man who had set his heart on seeing them grow again, and being allowed to enjoy their fragrance.

It seems that but few persons had grown pomegranates in recent years, however, and so far as is known, only one person succeeded in finding some of the seeds, and that person was Mrs. W. H. H. Rock who sent the old soldier a package of them, for which he will be very grateful.

The Rural Community Qhureh. Prof. Hollon, of the Kansas Agricultural College, declared recently, after careful study, that aloofness of the church to the needs of the people of the community has slackened their interest and dimished its social and religious value. He has made the following rules for the guidance of the rural pastor.

He should influence the church to think in terms of the community instead of in terms of the pillars.

He should make the church building a social center for community life.

He must clothe the gospel message in everyday language of the plain people of the twentieth century.

He must pacify infernal wranglings and discourage community competition between denominations

All except one church in each community of less than 600 inhabitants should be abolished.

He should do actual farm work that he may be more able to mix with his congregation.

This is an age of practicalization. Political leaders and captains of industry are finding that it pays to get nearer lo the people and to stay near them. Rural Pastors should learn the same lesson. The day has passed when the country (even more than the city church) was a structure for occupancy only one day out of seven, and for the exposition of the things of yesterday rather than of today.

NOT ONLY IN GREENFIELD

Similar Cases Occur Daily in This Vicinity Not only here in Greenfield, but in our neighboring towns, the same good story is heard. An encouraging instance from Raysville is given here, and will be read by us with great interest.

James Archibald, Raysville, near Knightstown, Ind., says: "I began to suffer from kidney complaint in 186-5, after being injured. In 1870 I had a severe attack and my condition was alarming. My back ached constantly and it was no' uncommon thing for me to be laid up for months at a time. My left kidney was badly swollen and I had but little control over the kidney secretions. I was hardly able to stoop and was obliged to use a cane when getting about. Doctors said that I had diabetes, but their medicine did not help me. I tried sevwell known kidney medicines ne sure cures for troubles such had, but I was not benefited until used Doan's Kidney Pills. They acted directly on my kidneys and by the time I had finished five boxes, I was free from all paii.s and aci^s. During the past few years I have had no further need of a kidney medicine. I do not want it understood that I am completely cured, but I wish to make the fact known that Doan's Kidney Pills have been of the greatest benefit to me."

Pension Roll Diminishing. According to a Washington dispatch, the pension roll has diminished to such an extent in recent months that it will require only $169,150,000 for pension disbursements in the fiscal year that will begin July 1st next, instead of $180,300,000, ihe amount appropriated for the current year. This interesting fact is brought out in the report on the pension budget, which has .just been reported to the House by the committee on appropriations. More than 40,000 names have been propped from the pension roll in the past year on account of death and other causes. The bill how goes to the Senate and is certain to pass that body before adjournment.

There has been and will be more spraying of fruit trees done this spring than in any previous year. 1 he people have come to recognizethe fact- that they must spray I heir fruit trees if they want fruit of a good quality and yield. It has been only a few years since spraying was done only on an occasional orchard. The results of ihese were, good advertisements, however, as the fruit was of a much better quality and the yield a great deal belter in the orchards that were sprayed. There are several people in the community who are making a specialty of spraying this spring and some of the dealers in spraying material have also a spraying machine winch they rent by the day or job. Spraying has come to be very popular with fruit growers.
