A most interesting Uttle brochure
has recently come off the press setting
forth with Bible proofs that the com
munications received by and through
Spiritist Mediums is of Demon origin.
The writer traces his subject through
the Scriptures from the time when
certain of the holy angels became dis
obedient. He proves from the Scrip
tures that these fallen spirits per
sonate the human dead, with whose
past history, spirits, though invisible,
are thoroughly acquainted. He shows
that they also frequently person
ate the Creator and the Redeemer,
commanding their deceived ones to
pray, do penance, etc. This, however^
is merely to lead them on and to bring
them more thoroughly under demoni
acal control. Sometimes by breaking
down the natural barrier, the human
will, they possess their victim, and rule
him more or less to his ruin—frequent
ly sending such to the mad-house.
Numerous illustrations. Scriptural and
otherwise, are given The price of the
little book is but ten cents: it should
be in the hands of all interested in
Spiritism or who have friends Inter
ested therein. Enclose five rwo-cent
stamps to the Bible and Tract Society.

It is reported that this year’s crop
of pecans is lightest yield in Texas
since 1896.
Wierd House Warming.
Concerning <a peculiar custom dis
covered among the natives of Dutch
New Guinea, this interesting descrip
tion is given by A. F. R. Wollaston
in the Geographical .Journal: “On top
of the first steep ridge we came to the
first native dwelling that we had seen
in the country. It was a rectangular
wooden structure, raised on piles about
five feet from the ground. A sloping
ladder or two or three poles tied to
gether leads to a narrow platform, be
hind which is the living room about
ten or twelve feet square. In the mid
dle of the (floor is a square fireplace,
usually lined with sand or small stones.
The walls are made of split poles
placed closely together, and the roof is
made of the leaves of pandhnus or of
a palm if any happen to grow in the
neighborhood. There was a mystery
about that first house which we were
never able to solve. It was evidently
quite newly built, a small clearing had
been made about it and a few banana
and draeoenas recently planted.
“Outside the house were a number
of men, women and children, the men
occupied in cooking large quantities of
yams and .sweet .potatoes and -great
lumps of pig’s flesh. We naturally
supposed that it was a sort of house
warming, as in one sense it turned out
to be. The men shook their heads
and pointed in a mysteious way to
ward the house and. made the curious
sign which they are accustomed to
make when they talk of something dis
agreeable. Then they invited us to
enter’ the house, where we found an
old man sitting by the fire. He was
diseased and decrepit, but appeared
by no means likely to die. He took
a keen interest in our appearance and
enjoyed the tobacco which we gave
him.
“When we returned five days later
we found the place utterly deserted
and the house a blackened heap of
ashes, on the top floor of which were
lying the charred remains of human
bones. It was impossible for any one
to say five days earlier that the old
man was going to die—indeed, he must
have lived for months or even years.
What we may imagine to have hap
pened was this: That he was unable
to get about any longer and find his
own food, his relations did not intend
to support him and that the prepara
tions we saw were really for his fune
ral feast, hut we were puzzled by their
having cremated him in a newly built
house.”
THE WOMAN’S JOB.
i Made Himself Safe:
The most trival incidents have often
originated the fortunes of our richest
men. Take, for example, the fortunes
made out of Bessemer steel. This
genius, young Bessemer, had some idea
of making steel out of iron, but a
poor, newly married’ young mdn has
no means of experimenting on a large
scale. The story I must tell as I heard
it from an intimate friend of Bessemer
and is a true tale.
After Bessemer had in his small lab
oratory experimented with the metals
and at last obtained the desired result
by blowing air through melted iron he
found in the bottom of the crucible a
little lump of the famous steel. Now
the question was how to make the dis
covery public. He put the lump of
steel into his pocket and made his way
to Nasymth of steam hammer fame.
Placing the metal on Nasmyth’s desk
he told him that he had made this ex
traordinary discovery, which would
revolutionize the whole metal world.
Then came a little incident which
shows what wonderful heads these
Scotch financiers possess. What do
you think Nasmyth said to his excited
inventor?
“Eh, mon, it’s very risky to show
your wonderful invention. The world
is vary dishonest.”
To which the aspiring inventor re
plied :
“Right, Mr. Nasmyth. I just calcu
lated who I was coming to see, so with
my last half crown I registered the
invention on my way.”—London Strand
Magazine.
Two women were discussing some
much needed reforms when one sud
denly exclaimed, “Oh, when you see
so many wrongs <that should be right
ed, don’t you wish you were a man?”
‘“No, indeed,” was the reply, “the
woman’s job appeals to me.”
Those last words captured the writ
er’s attention. What is the woman’s
job?
Then came to mind the words of a
wise old book; a book whose wisdom,
when’ rightly applied to man’s devel
opment, makes possible the highest,
most permanent civilization of the
human race.
The words are these, “I will make
him an helpmeet for him.” This, at
first thought, may seem a limited,
menial sphere. But study it a whole.
Woman is called man’s helpmeet, but
has been made as important
as the one occupied by him.
| Into her care and keeping the human
race has been committed. Its com
fort and well-being are in her hands.
Under her dominion is the home,
where human destiny is cradled.
Man’s part is to fight and labor in
the open. Woman’s part is to keep
him well equipped for his work, and
the fate of nations depends upon
whether she does her pant well or ffll.
True, some of the weaker sex must
toil side by side with men. for their
daily 'bread, hut if their masculin
cb-workeTs have had right principles
inculcated by the woman farther back,
then no question of wrong or oppres
sion can arise. Hence, we see that
woman’s sphere requires patriotism
as well as domestic virtues.
In this century of many notable in
ventions and discoveries, great 'changes
have been made in the conditions of
life, but in it all there is nothing to
indicate that woman’s relations 1 to
things has changed, no need has
arisen for a “new woman.”
The only need is that the woman of
today adjust herself to present condi
tions.
Her relation to man, from the cra
dle to the grave, and more especially
during the formative period of his
Life, makes it particularly necessary
that she know much of the history of
nations, as well as of the arts and
sciences.
Modern inventions and discoveries
have rendered it possible for her to
so simplify her domestic affairs that
she has much more leisure time to
devote to other interests, than had
the women of a generaaton agio, there
fore, no excuse can 'be made for her
if she neglects to provide herself and
her household with such mental and
physical nutriment as make for the
best development of humanity.
The more we think of this question
the more we feel that there is neither
time nor place for repining, but every
day of life may be spent in eager,
joyful endeavor and achievement in
this wonderful “woman’s job” of ours.

Helping Kidneys
By Clearing Blood
A Function Greatly Assisted
By a Well-Known
Remer;~.
Most readers will be Interested to more
clearly understand why analysis of urine is
so important. In the nse of S. S. S. to
purify the blood, its action is a stimulant
to the myriad of fine bipod vessels that
make up the constructive tissues of the
kidneys. AU the blood from all over the
body must pass through the kidneys. They
act as testers and assayers. And according
to what they allow to pass ont in the urine,
both as to quantity and materials, the
health of the kidneys and the quality of the
blood is determined. The catalytic energy
forced by S. S. S. is shown In the nrlne.
It is also demonstrated in the skin. And
as the blood continues to sweep throngfa
the kidneys the dominating nature of
S. S. S., acting as it does through all the
avenues of elimination, shows a marked
decrease of disease manifestations as dem
onstrated by urine analysis. This assist
ance is a great relief to the kidneys. The
body wastes are more evenly distributed to
the emunctories; their elimination is stim
ulated by the tonic action afforded the
liver, lungs, skin and kidneys. Thus, in
cases of rheumatism, cystitis, chronic sore
throat, hr.skiness of voice, bronchitis, asth
ma and the myriad of other reflex indica
tions of weak kidney action, first purify
your blood with S. S. S., so it will enable
the tissues to rebuild the cellular strength
and regain the normal health.
S. S. S. is prepared by The Swift Specific

The effect the European war is hav

This is a great mistake, and a great

and a city man who is not experienced
in farming is as likely to fail when

Farming requires a knowledge of soils

The late Lord Cross never added
greatly to the humor of the nation. On
one occasion, however, while lie was
still in the house of commons he-tried
to be sarcastic during a speech.
“I think,” he said, fixing a certain
minister with a ferocious eye, “I think
I hear the right honorable gentleman
smile.”
After that remark, if it were any

Tie acted That Wins.
In fair competition lies the true
sport of good business. There is
no calling’, no profession, or occu
pation, equal to It for absorbing: In
terest and endless succession of ex
citing’ incident. But it should be ■
that kind of a healthy competition
and friendly rivalry that does not
strain neighborly relations. On
the contrary, it should tend to
bring those men together' who are
engaged In a similar business for.
the purpose of free discussion and
publicity of opinion.
Unfortunately, this does not often
occur. Men engaged in a like bus
iness sometimes get too friendly,
combine their interests, and form
a. combination, contrary to the laws
of the realm.
Others enter Into a bitter per
sonal conflict with each other, en
deavoring with might and main to
throw ignominy npon and disre
spect for the house of their com-,
petitors and their goods. )•
The intensity of the competitive
struggle is subject to a great deal
of variation. At times it may be
characterized as cut-throat, where
the slashing of prices has for its
object «the elimination of one or
-more of the contestants. Bach
competitor is confronted by the
ever-present threat that if his
service is poor, or the quality of
bis goods is not up to the stand
ard, some other house of business
will outstrip him. But the house
that considers service, high quality
and no more than a fair profit as
tbe paramount factors in business.
Is the one that In the long run Is
sure to win.
