Ills hands and hoofs no longer direct or intimidate our people, and his persuasive power to evil tins censed. Sinners are crowding saints for front pews in the churohes, and overworking their treasurers to pay pew rents and pastor's salaries Morality, virtue and teniperaneo walk our street with a firm tread and confident air. Satan would hardly dare return here now, but we hope many strangers will come. Shows and tradosmen who seek gain In exhibiting or selling their wares still foel the necessity of advertising and are ready to put down their good money for it. They are quite willing to take extra pains ' to Inform the people that they are doing husiness and desire patronage, and they know these methods are productive of results. They are not entirely content with the effect of their persuasive powers when people happen to enter their shops. They are planning how to get them and o urge them (n a publio manner to come. This is business. Readers of the rnERs will note that the church columns have beon discon tinued, and, as well all announce ments of ohnrch services. Satan has beon dismayed, and though the well known maxim with advertisers is to keop everlastingly at it, this does not appear applicable here in the realms of morality and religion. The Press is happy to think that It has been so effective and been able to -demonstrate the value of its columns as iu advertising medium. Vben the doil takes a hand again, If he ever dares, it will still be available to the churches at the former rates. That village improvement society has not yet materialized. It cannot be possible that the ladies of Milford are indifferent to the natural beau ties of the town or that they depre cate their ability to greatly enhance them by a little effort I Think of the satisfaction it would be to them to feel that they had added largely to the attractions of Milford in a material way. True, the ladios are beautiful to look on and are adorned with grace and style, but they should not desire to oentor all the admiration of guests on them selves. Cases may be supposed where suoeoss in such efforts might be provocative of difficulties. There are many ladios among the guests as well as a few men. If we were a woman we would start the "move ment assured that our beauty would not embarrass it or detract from the possible general effect. Some papers assert that the Par ker bootu is sagging.

Evangelistic Campaigns Evangelistio campaigns have just been conducted in Chioago, Pitts burg, Columbus and some other Western cities by the Presbyterian evangeliitio oomruittee, and their results assure their conductors that "the mouthing over that particular ly reckloss and inconsiderable die turn heard of late in various quarters that 'revivalism is- played out,' " onght to cease. Old-fashioned evangelism is still found effective, "oven in the most modern and bustling and worldly of our cities," and is yet a force to be reckoned with. In summing np the work of the year the secretary of the com mittee says that the church is in the best spiritual condition for years. Evangelism is not dead within it, it is not a Bpent force, but a growing one, and the outlook for its continu ed usefulness was never brighter, Gone for a Policeman Judge Morgan J. O'Brien of the supreme court of New York state tells an amusing story of two boys who went to confession after having remainod away for many years. The one who went into the box first remained there for a long while. Finally the little door opened, and the priest came out. It was a sultry afternoon, and he walked down the aisle to the doorway to get a breath of fresh air. As he did so, the boy in the con fessional poked his head out, and with an alarming look, inquired of his friend who was in the pew : "where has he gone?" "I don't know," replied the other "where do you think he's gone?" "Well," was the now thoroughly frightened response ; "from what I've told him I think he's gone to fetch a cop."

Roads wore badly washed aud many plowed fields destroyed. Hail broke windows over in Diugtnnn and destroyed fruit and crops. Both the house and barn of Edward Shepherd in Delaware were struck and ignited but the deluge of rain put out the fire. Wednesday evening's storm washed out several hundred foot of track of the O. & W. and Monticello railroads. A large fire was seen last evening in the direction of Cole ville, N.
