In another column the reader may
find the topics for consideration for
the week of prayer. IK seoms like
the proper thing to have a program
for that important week so that tbe
mind of praying church people and
others may be concentrated, and it is
published so far in advance that
pravine people may know what to
pray for each day. It is no common
thing for one who drops in of an
ovening during prayer week to hear
members pray and never tonch tho
subject for which that evening calls
for. They may hear prayers that
have been prayed right along for a
quarter of a century and with which
the prayer meeting going peopl9 can
almost repeat word for word as
brother so and bo's prayer. By read
ing tho program of subject for the
week of prayer everyone may know
what is tbe topic for pr.iyer for every
meeting. . -

a good thing of it and has only this
county to sell- He tells the farmer
he can have it for $250, and if he
wants it to write to him. In a few
days Swindler No. 2, comes along.
He has heard that the farmer has the
right of the county for the patent
wagon tongue, and as he has made a
big thing oat of it in Pennsylvania,
he wants to buy the right of the coun
ty for the patent wagon tongue, and
as he has made a big thing out of it
Pennsylvania he wants to buy the
right of the county, and offers the
farmer $400 and pays $10 to bind the
I bargain, xne iarmer writes to ao. i
and sends to him his note for $250.
