A mere comparison of the amount
of wages paid the workingtnan now
and during the last democratic ad.
ministration, and then a further com
parison of the cost of the necessities
of life during the two periods, do not
truly indicate the condition of the
laborer. The excess of days which
the employee works during times of
prosperity over hard times must be
considered as "increased wages" also.
The Massachusetts Bureau of labor
recently presented some intertating
figures showing the present compara
tive full employment of labor.
The average number of days of
operation of all the industries of Mas
sachusetts, including those not affected
by any possible change in the tariff,
was 297.83 in 1892. It dropped to
278.40 In 19H3. It was but 281.03 in
189G. It was 292.78 last year. This
difference amounts to an increase in
wages.
The total amount paid in wages In
the typical factories under review by
the bureau was $137,972,501 in 1892,
1122,405,937 in 1893, $130,845,551, in
l89o, and 17ti,861,715 in 1901.
In spite of freight blockades the

The topics for next Sabbath will
be concerning the incarnation. In
the morning this theme will he dealt
with as one of the great facts of the
Christian religion, ami ir. the even
ing the appeal will be tinned on the
Divine gift to men our obligation.
to give ourselves in rtturn.
The Christmas service will be held
on Ulinstmas rigiu at ine uoine
ohuroh and on Christmas eve at
Union.
This is a season of the year that
thousands are made happy. Why
not? There is a close sympathy be
tween heaven and earth, so that the
joy of God in giving is the joy of
men in receiving. As we give our
presents to our friend-j, shall we not
receive in open spirits the gift of
gifts, the Lord of glory ?
Let us keep in mind the revival
services to be held after the week of
prayer. The demands of the Christ
mas season will then be over, and
we will have time to give ourselves
to the work of God, without inter
ruptions.
We have moved the organ in front
of the choir, leaving the entire choir
(oft for the singers. This has the
advantage of giving us tho mucn
needed room. It also brings the
organ nearer to the congregation,
and places it out in the room so that
it will be in a muoh better position
to lead the singing.
The time may come of course some
day far ahead when some democrat
can be found as a presidential candi
date who will be acceptable to a few
of his fellow democrats.
A contemporary remarks that
there is considerable regret over the
approaching retirement of Senator
Wellington, of Maryland, the regret
being that it is to take effect at the
close of the present session of congress
instead of at the beginning.

The matter of feed is of
tremendous importance to the
farmer. Wrong feeding is
loss. Right feeding is profit.
The up-to-date farmer knows
what to feed his cows to get
the most milk, his pigs to get
the most pork, his hens to
get the most eggs. Science.
But how about the children ?
Are they fed according to
science, a bone food if bones
are soft and undeveloped, a
flesh and muscle food if they
are thin and weak and a blood
food if there is anemia ?
Scott's Emulsion is a mixed
food ; the Cod Liver Oil in it
makes flesh, blood and muscle,
the Lime and Soda make bone
and brain. It is the standard
scientific food for delicate
children.

(Ily Hcv. K. M. Sineiid )
Next Lord's day, Sabbath before
Christum, it is fitting that the
themes should Imnr upon the Bethle
hem manger. Christmas sermons
accordingly will be preached and it
is the earnest wish of tho pastor
that a large congregation may be
present both morning and evening.
Last Sunday It was quite impossi
ble to best the large .room fur ser-
vic?s and the parlors were used for
all the meetings of the day.
Christinas services will be similar
in character to those ot last year.
Announcement of the program in
detail will be made Sabbath.
Since our last writing in those
columns a new board of trnstces has
tieen elected. Of the former board
Messrs. William Mitchell and Tobias
Nelson have retired nnd Messrs
George Mitchell and Frank Cross
have taken their places. This makes
tho new board as follows : John C.
Wallace, George Mitchell, Jacob
Klaer, Dr. Robert, G. Barcklay and
Frnnk Cross. When the now board
organized and selected their oflicers
Mr. Wallace was made chairman,
Mr. Klaer secretary, and Dr. Barck
lay treasurer. Personally we ap
predate the faithful services of the
two that have retired and are
pleased to make this announcement
of the personel of the present board
At the last business meeting of
the Christian Endeaver society the
following officers were elected and
have accepted: Rev. E. M. Smead
president; Mrs. Georgia Petrikov
sky, vice president; Miss Emily
Mitchell, secretary ; and Miss Lydia
Brown, treasurer. May thes-e of
fleers have the whole-hearted sup
port of the members. Plans and
effoi'la are being made to increase
the interest of the society. If those
who are assigned the leadership of
meetings would take their turns and
those who are not leading will be as
loyal to their leader as they shall
hope to bo supported themselves
when their turn comes then the
whole problem of interesting meet
ings and a good winter's work will
he solved. The society expects each
and every member to do his or hei
duty.
The pastor has been very happy
for having received an excellent set
of books (twenty-five volumes)
which he has desired for a long
time. They are the well known
expositor's Bible and are considered
a very valuable part of a minister'!
library.
A feature of our work for the first
quarter of 1903 will be the first ap
pearance of a quarterly calendar
announcing our services and the
topics for the Christian Endeavor
society with the leader for the ev
oning and the topio for the rognla
prayer service. It is hoped that
this now departure may receive the
hearty approv il of our people and
that it may render real assistance to
the life and spirit of our entire
work.
