In tills portion nf tlio Htale, linn been

Is noted that Mr. llarncd with hotse
niul Hlbte-wafjon Iiiih traveled 1,800
miles In Susquehanna, Bradford, Sulli
van and Lj-eonilnp counties, reaching n
ullage population far from churches,
Sunday schools and book stores. In all
ho distributed 2,600 volumes In these
communities. In concluding his repoit
Mr. Harned soys:
"We might enumerate many dlfllcul
tles, such as stc.ci hills, lough roads
and Inconvenience often In finding sult
nblo places for entertainment for the
nights; the coolness of people who re
garded us a m'cie peddler; the effort
" sometimes necessary to induce people
to purchase n needed Bible, and Indeed
helping them plan to pay lor it, be
lieving they would got more out of It
If they put something In It.
"I have thought best not to make
much ado about .particular cases, of
destitution, such as janitors of churches
and Sunday school teachers, people liv
ing next door to churches and paison
nges, etc., who had no Bibles In th-lr
houses, lest It might do more liaim
thnn good. And, yet, I have found In
stances of all these."

Tlio annual meeting of All Souls Unl
versallst church, held the middle of
January, was one o'f the most encourag
ing of recent years. The treasurer re
ported all bills paid, and a surplus of
?..ri on hand.
Since the coming of the new pastor,
they have tissuiedly taken u new lease
of life. Now faces aie seen in the
congiegntion, fiom Sunday to Sunday,
unci u spirit of confident assurance per
vades all departments of tho church.
if IMS Eclipse.
Any man can produce a total eclipse
of the sun, so far as lie himself is con
cerned, by holding a dollar close to liis
eye, i ie total eclipse
of health is often pro
duced in much the
bauie way, by letting
the dollar shut out
frotn( view all other
things ami interests.
A great many people pay for wealth with
health and admit at labt that they have
made a poor bargain. In the chase of
the dc'kir people are too eager to take
time to eat regularly or choose proper
food, the stomach becomes disordered or
diseased, tiie food eat
en ceases to nourish,
arid physical break
down comes.
