Chicago, June 28. -In this sermon
the preacher chooses a patriotic
home. The text is Pse.lro. ova 5.
"That I may rejoice in the gladness'
of thy nation."
When a child is born. the. attending
physieian makes out a birth oertifa
cede. This important docupteent is
sent to the fireproof buildi4g where:.
are preserved the county' records.
1
The omission of this certi ficate or
the improper filing of the saline might
cause inestimable damage. Years
hence the leak of it might disinherit
the child of large property interests
and involve many would be heirs in
interminable legal strife.
But though the birth certificate of
an individual. may be vigilantly
guarded it is not so carefully pre-
served as is the birth certificate of a
nation. . Then the sentimental as
well as the' intrinsic value places it
above the price of silver and gold.
If possible it is carefully b.ouseci with-
al the sacred hall wherein the nation
ev`as born. The paper upon which is
written the Declaration of Independ-
ence Is • the American nation's birth
certificate. Other nations ,c.ame o to
recognition by the slow processes of
evolution, but the United States of
America, sprang into existence in a
clay, and this DeclaratTan announced
in an, astonished world on July 4,'
1776, the birth of a new member, of
the family of nations. As the yoang
King Alfonso XIII. of Snail; having
been born after the death of his father
has the unique distinction among
eeovereigns of being born a king, SO
the Ameriea.n Goddess of Liberty at
her first appearance took her place in.
the world as a sovereign. The docu-
ment in which she declared her sover_ .
eigrity and her rights constituted the
old Independence hall of Philadelphia
the -most sacred building in American
history, since within its walls is that
saered birth chamber in which was
first rocked the cradle of this new-
born national infant. It publishes
to the world that the men who sign-
ed their names at :the foot of that
immortal doeument, penned by Thom-
as Jefferson_in the little three story
red brick house still standing at the
corner of Seventh and Market streets
Philadelphia; were the attending
witnesses whose testimony gave val-
idity to that national birth certifi-
cate.
The Declaration of Independence
was the startling culmination tof man-
ly intolerance of injustice. The docu-
ment was not, as some people sup-
pose, the renult of a long and care-
fully planned conspiracy extending
oyer many years. It seemed rather
to have been the outgrowth of . the
moment. It was the crystallization
of sentiments the results of which
but kw men could foresee. The Brit-
ish ministry had not anticipated it,
neither had the American people.
When the First Continental congress
assembled in Philadelphia, on Sept.
5, 1774, there was probably not one
prominent leader in all America who
wished for national independence with
the sole exception possibly of Sam-
uel Adams. of Boston. "Before the
17th of April, 1775," wrote Thomas
Jefferson, "1 had never heard a
whisper of a disposition to separate
from- the mother country." "When
I first took command of the army,
July 3, 1775, I abhorred the idea of
independence," wrote George Wash-
-leg -ton in one of his letters, but I
am now convinced that nothing else
will save us." All that the American
colony wished. from England was not
separa tion, but' justice.
The two -countries in every essen-
tial part ortheir-ettake up were one.
They spoke the same language. Many
families had brothers and sisters and
other relatives in both countries. The
children of prominent Americans were
for the most part educated in Eng-
lish schools, where they were taught
to reverence the British ldng. When.
Richard Henry Lee arose on the
nunnorable 7th of Juni
e 1776, and
read the following reeolution: "Re-
solved, That these united colonies are
and of a right ought to be free and
independent states and that they are
absolved from all allegiance to the
Iltiti-sh crown," his own boy was at
that time attending , aen English
school. This American youth, some
weeks later, waa standing beside one
of his teachers when a visitor asked,
"Who is that boy?" -He is the son
of Itichard Henry Lee," was the
teacher's answer. Then the visitor
placed his hand upon the lad's shoul-
der and said, "Boy, we shall yet see
your father's head upon Tower hill!"
To this the son replied, "Yes, you
may have it when you get it!" If
Richard IIenry Lee for years had
been conspiring for American inde2
peendence, he would never have sent
hie son across the sea to be educat-
ed lender the dome nat. ion and influ-
ence of the English throne. The De-
claration of American Independence
was written and signed as a last re-
sort and because the British Ministry
WO tlIfi not listen to American peti-
tions. it was written because King
George with the fatuity of royal
and imperial natures imagined that.
he had the rig -ht to enforce his Will
on a people as rDSOlUt 0 as himself.
Ile believed that it was for him to
conunand and for them to obey and
that their prof est against taxation
W;tholit representation was wicked
rebellion against divinely constituted
authority. It was written because
our forefathers believed that in a
struggle for right and justice God
would be on thole side, though they
had to contend with a foe more pow-
erful t h a t hemselves.
Standing hein, in -this y -ear of grace
100.1, with our hands upon this ven-
erable and sacred scroll, we may
learn the mighty lesson that the
really true, - the great, the omnipo-
tent mid enduring Governmeut is not
that which rules by force of arms,:
but by the all conquering power Of
justice, and of justice alone. This is
the ,hietorical teaching of Eiegland'a

In olden times the Scottish youths
were inspired to deeds of valor by
the knowledge that they were mem-
bers of the clan MacGregor or Camp-
bell or Stuart or McCoy. They were
inspired with the determination. nev-
er to disgrace the family name. It
is recorded that ia one of the north-
erii battles the MacGregors were be-
ing driven back. Their chief rallied
his followers and led them forth to a,
victorious charge with the cry:- "My
men, come on! Come on! Fight
like brave men! Your ancestors are
to -day watching you!" So let us
be brave and true to America's best
interests, not only for our own
sakes, but also for the sake of those
illustrious 'ancestors who are watch-
ing us. .Let this national anniversary
be -to us a day of consecration to the
cause of right and freedom. As the
mother of Hannibal led her son to
the grave of Inemilcar, his sire, and
there in.aele him swear unceasing war
against the enemies of his country, -
so may we, remembering the graves
of the signers of the Declaration of
Independence, pledge ourselves anew
t� the struggle against the evils
which meeace, the greatness and
righteousness of the nation that they
established.
I repeat, itt the great crisis' of na-
tional affairs God. if we only trust
him, will give us the right men for
the right places. Did he not give
the right man for the right place
when he gave Thomas Jefferson as
the writer of this immortal docu-
ment? Did 11P not give the right
man for the right place when George
Washington became the head of the
American armies? Did not Cod give
the right man for the right place
when, at the breaking out of the civ -
war, Abraham Lincoln became
president of thc.> United States? Did
not God give us tho right man for
the right place when William McKin-
ley sat in the White House and calm-
ly and bravely guided the affairs : of
atat e during tile Spanish-American
trouble? And shall not od raise up

A merit an people are a Godly nation

In Paris 1 lir vd seen the Napoleonic

is no historical picture that, to my
mixed, is _se impreeeive, o igaeae
earrt, KO run: or inspiration us that
historic picture of the Continental,
congress in prayer.
Most of the members of that eon-
.sti'ess :name from. praying Christian
home ee They assembled in the spring
and summer of 1776 to take the
most momentous step which the cit-
e/ens of any .conntry can take. It
was no light or trivial act to re-
nounce allegiance to King George
and to defy the power of the British
Government. These men well knew
{he consequences involved in such a
-step and realized the necessity of
ha.ving divine guidancee One of the
members arose and moved that a
proothient Episcopalian minister of
Philadelphia should be sent for and
asked to lead the members in prayer
to God. Samuel Adathe, I think it
was, eeconded that motion. He. said
in substance: "l am not an Episco-
palian, but I tun not -a 'bigot. I feel
that God's hand xnust lead us In this
national erisia , I second the mo-
tion." The motion was carried. The
meld day this tlepiscopalian minister
came to the legislative hall. He
came in full canonical robeS. All the
members knelt. I can well. believe
that all must have joined in the
prayer that the .God of the armies of
Moses and of Joshua would lead and
guide them. How on any other as-
sumption can we explain their daunt-
less courage? It would have been
sheer temerity for those men to sign
that .Declaration unless they had be-
lieved that God would be with them
in the struggle that must ensue. And
their faith was justified by sthe re-
sult. The God who heard the plead-
ing of the Israelites in the •-wilder-
'less' heard the prayers of that Con-
tinental congress. in his providence
England was not bit free to use her
strength in crushing the infant na-a
tion. The life and death struggle in
which she had to engage nearer home
curtailed ..her power, and to that
fact, due to the overruling mercy of
God, our forefathers owed their suc-
cess. Oh, My fellevy countrymen. let
us on this inniversary. exercise *the
faith that our fathers had in the
God of nations. May we continue
to prey as our ancesters prayed in
1776 and in 1812 and in 1861. May
we feel as a nation 'that our God is
a prayer answering God, and that he
will listen to our petitions, whether
lifted in church Pulpit or in the leg-
islative hall.
Thus on this glorious national hol-
iday T want you to take the Declares
tion of Independence, which is our
birth certificafe, and place it be-
tween the leaves of your Bible. There
may it speak to us as Christian citi-
'e's and as individuals. While it

effect on sound. Yet experiments, re-
ported at a recent meeting of the
A MeV ie a n Physical society, show
that a wall of lead transmits sound
better than a wall of glass. The
conclusion drawn from the experi-
ments was that,, other things being
equal. the medium which yields most
to steady pressure best transmits
sound.
Skilful Transplanting.
Set plants into freshly turned soil
so that moist earth will come into
contact with the fine roots. A_ rainy
or at least a cloudy day late in the,.
afternoon is a favorable time. Make
the hole about the depth of the rook,
insert plant and press the earth close-
ly add firmly to the roots. Ire dry
weather press the soil with the foot,
and thengo over lightly iwith a

in the moisture. Keep the plants. wet
during setting. Ten minutes of wilt-
ing either before or after settinfr
would often settle the fates of the

FINGER TIP TIPS.
Character as It Is _Found 'Written There
—The lingers Are Indices of One's
,Traits—How to Study.
When a bevy of maidens would
while away an idle hour, and fore-
tell fate and fortune, it is not alone
the lines on. their hands that they
consult, but the finger tips as well.
"Let me tell your future by your.
little finger," says one Healy damsel
to her .companion.
The. little finger that was ,held up
showed that its possessor wohld be
lucky in love affairs and constant in
her affections. This was proved by
its oval tip, with well marked lines
near the joints.
-Extreme delicacy of the lines of
the finger tips, not weakness, -but
thread-like ;:tishions, especially of the
third frdgers, -denote an artistic tal-
ent. When studying finger tips, or
phalangology, as it is called, the
length of the tips above the ball of
the finger lutist be noted. Unusuallersg-th shows that a Woman covets
power, and she usually gets it,
Very jolly and gay at times is the
woman with the tips of her first fin-
gers showing lines extending from

suffering.
Old people learn to trust in Dr. Chase's
Kidney -Liver Pills, for when all other treat-
ments fail this great medicine seems to go
directly to the diseased part, and promptly
affords relief and cure.
Ma. DAVID MISENER, farmer, Port Robin-
son, Welland County, Ontario, writes
wish to state to you that 1 had a pain in my,
back and left side for over twenty years. At
times I could not turn over in bed, I was so
badly us ga up. I had cramps in my feet and
legs, and my hands were so entirely useless
that I could scarcely lift anything.
"Kidney disease was, no doubt, the cause
ofall my suffering; and -sometimes the urinary
trouble would be so bad that I would have to
get up five or six times during the night. For-
tunately, I began using Dr. Chase's Kidney -
Liver Pills, and they cured me completely.
I am 79 years old, and quite well now, but
still occasionally use these pills to keep my
system in good order. Several persons -to
whom 1 have recommended Dr. Chase's id.:
ney-Liver Pills have been equally benefited."

The pointed second finger, rith fine
lines, shows one .decidedly optimis-
tic; if very pointed, frivolous, fond
of gossip, and on whom sorrows
make but little impressions. She is
as irreseonsible as a, autterfly.
The fourth fine*, if ringed, with
lines near the tip, aried quite point-
ed, indicates one quicksat repartee,
witty and diplomatic, if /the finger
is smooth, or not lined with marks,
or if it is square -tipped and rather
heavy, the possessor is fond of
praise, nor is flattery unwelcome.
The square little finger shows one
who would rather do a thing herself
than try to. show others. She. finds
it difficult to put the • kOwledge in-
t verbal expression and is prone to
y the wrong thing ' at the wrong

From finger nails also is character
foretold. Small, round -nails are as-
sociated with an affectionate natures
filbert nails denote refinement; nar-
row nails incline to mischief; broad
nails are indicative of a gentle, de-
pendent nature; crooked nails belong
to quick-tempered people: long nails
to those of a temporizing disposi-
tion, one who would hesitate "to
name the day." These are nails of
persons who hate scenes.
Pink nails show indolence., red
nails good temper, and nails ab-
normally pale, a -weakness that is
both physical and mental.
In reading character from the fin-
ger tips, the proper way is to study
the fingers of the -left hand and to
prove the reading by the right. A
magnifying glass, by the way, is
needed for this study of phalangol-
ogy. •

The Huka falls -the Niagara of Ma-

Ten Years' Experience With Oats..
Ten years of experiments with oats
at the Ohio expeeiment 'station show
that: . .
On the somewhat sandy clay of
the station farm plowing the ground
for oats, as compared with merely -
disking it, has been justified. by ad-
ditional yiold.
it has been more profitable to use
nine to ten pecks of seed per acre
than a smaller quantity.
Seeding not to gxce e d one inch in
depth hadShrought ja.rger yields than
deeper seedipg.
It has been better to broadcast
the seed than to cover .it two or
three inches deep with the drill.
