and Prosperity, will again come to our

lmphant election of McKinley and
Hobart.

 

As It Now Stands.

Since Bryan’s nomination, silver has
fallen about four cents an ounce and
wheat has risen about 20 cents a bushel.

This is something that Mr. Bryan
dosen’t discuss when he talks to far-
mars.

 

 

The Light of the World.
Jesus Christ and Him crucified! This
. is the head and front of the Christian
religion. It is Christianity itself.
Jesus Christ is indeed the light of the
Prophets may thunder and
creeds perplex; churches invite and
apostles disclaim; but the supreme law
of Christianity is contained in the words
of that sublime figure that stands out
upon the horizon of time more prom-
inent than any other.

The inspiration of the Bible is not de-
nied; creeds may be necessary for the
discipline of the many; churches may
be the rallying point of the Christian
circumstance and endeavor. But when
God spoke through the sainted lips of
His only begotten Son, those words
superseded all that came from revela-
tion prophecy. There can be no mis-
take about them; even the weakest can
comprehend and the strongest obey.
They are the way, the light and the life,
and through them, by them and of
them only is the world to be saved.

Jesus Christ is indeed the light of
the world, penetrating the waste places
and making them rich with the beauty
that never fades away.

It is the same light that made radient
the stars that shone over the manger
of Bethlehem, and that flecked with
glory the clouds that hovered over Cal-
mry.

It is this light that makes the legions
of Christian civilization so. resistless in
their onward march. It clears the way
for the years that make beautiful the
paths of a higher lite, and it shakes the
earth with laughter as the snow white
flowers of faith spring gently into
view.

It enters into every sphere of life,
and into every incident that fills the
world with change. It leaps across the
flatbed chasms, filling them with eter-
nal glory as it passes on, and upon the
hoary heads of gigantic crags it\hangs
a crown of deathless flowers

It enters into the hovel of the beg-
gar, and the stained and battered tim-
bers fade away, and in their place are
ladders that reach up to the eternal
skies. The broken windows are filled
with a splendid presence, and the fire-
less hearthstone is an altar where the
Divine One kneels and prays. The crust
of bread becomes the sweetest morsel
birth luxury ever offered to its sated
ripe. and toe battered cup of water is of
the wine that glowed and sparkled at
Gena. .

it goes to the place where some rude,
unlettered man dies for his fellow-man,
and forms a shining track over which
his soul. walks to immortality.

It touches with loving beauty the
lonely attic room where some tired and
Weary, weak and grieving girl is fight-
ing ofi‘ poverty and sin; and it hangs
upon the stained walls there the picture
of a dying Christ; the stone rolled away
from the grave; the light shining from
the clouds, paradise, the resurrection
and the life.

It sweetens the hours of labor, and
4 blesses them with the memory of one
who labored for all the world. It eu-
o‘oles the days of ceaseless pair. with
the light of love from pitying eyes that.
for our sake knew pain and grief, and
were acquainted with great sorrow.

To the heart of great forests this
light finds its way, and the church and
the school house join hands to work for

 

world.

 

God. It leaps across great Waves when
a ship is tossing to and fro, and a sting

winds and the waves obey; upon great,
springless deserts, where shiiting sands
lie in wait for prey, it sheds its rays,
and 'weary travelers, feeling the arm of
the leighty'under trem, take heart
again and find their way onwardx to
home and happiness. It lights up the
way of the martyr to grim duty, and
fills his path with roses sweet and fair.
No dungeon is strong enough to keep it
.out, and it makes the prisoner’s chains
a wreath 0f lilies light with love.

Well might the Christ say: “Iam
the light of the world.” This is the
light that makes glorious the gospel of
humanity, and victorious the brother-
hood of man. It makes friends of
enemies, and brothers and sisters of
all. It makes the poor man Equal to
the rich, the poor woman stand upon
the same plane as the one arrayed in
silk and diamonds. It makes one great
family of all those who worship God
and who, with loyal, loving hearts,
strive to do His work here on earth.

 

Political Notes.

There will a blaze of fireworks in the
New York harbor to-night, during the
water parade for sound money.

Many Sound Money Democrats in
Kentucky resented the attempt to break
up Mr. Carlisle’s speech, and declared
they would vote for McKinley.

Major McKinley was presented with
a handsome mirror made by the glass
workers of Pennsylvania. ’

Chairman Campau, of the Popocratic
executive committre, was quoted as
saying that Mark _Hanna was sending
men to Michigan to bribe voters, and
Chairman Hanna promptly called him
a liar.

Bryan began his last campaign tour of
Illinois, all arrangements for his trip
being in the hands of Governor At-
geld’s followers.

The government has issued a book of
reports from the consuls of foreign
countries, showing just how wage
earners suffer through the depreciating
and fluctuating monetary standards.

A few years ago nearly 'all newspapers
published, at this season, recrpes for summer
complaints. Now such items are seldom
met with. Publishers have learned that
there is nothing quite as good as Chamber-

 

 

for these diseases and as it is in general use
everywhere they have quit publishing these
recipes. No one having a. bottle. of this
remedy in the house peed fear an attack of
bowel complaint. It can always be depended
upon and is pleasant and safe. For sale by
