The Subject Discussed by the Eminent
I'arkbursU
Sometimes there is no good in
going to church. It depends
principally on tbe church. It
is often claimed that church
attendance is on the decrease.
People are not going to be drawn
in by being scolded for staying out.
ftqr are they going to be drawn f n
r-in a way Xo hold them by being
coaxed in by artificial seductions.
A good deal of money is put into
the artietic trimmings of sanotuarv
service There is no objection to
the artistic if it is wrought into
tbe body of the service and not
availed of simply as so much
millinery put on to make the ser-
vice more presentable. The adver-
tising of sensational topics is an-
other way the pulpit takes to wor-
ry truth into reluctant. hearts ad-

vertisment-captured congregations.
It does not bold tbe people but it
does cheapen tbe pulpit and set
the house of God in tbe same row
withthe dry goods stores millin-
ery shops and other institutions
that put big headlines in the news-
papers and flaming placards in the
front windows. We may call tbe
rank and file of people very God-
less.butthey are able to distinguish
remarkably well between fact and
fiction in matters of religion. 1
believe that ninety people out of
a hundred would respect God's
bouse if they were sure that it is
God's bouse more than it is man's.
It takes a good deal besides a pul-
pit a choir loft and a spire to
make a church.

SAD CASE OF DESTITUTION.
Helpless Family With a Sick
Child.
The little son of a woman named
Lashball over on the east side is
in a most pitiable condition. Tbe
family has been helped by the re-
lief union a great many times and
others have contributed to their
wants from time to time. The
child has been sick several weeks
and is lying on some old dirty bed
clothes in a little old shanty where
fresh air and comfort is an impos-
sibility. The writer visited the
place yesterday in company with
one of the physicians who is grat-
uitously treating tbe sick boy.
Tbe wasted form of the child and
the unhappy surroundings appeals
strongly to all who have visited
the house. Some gentlemen on
the street yesterday arranged to
have ice and milk delivered daily
till the little lellow recovers if
recoyery be possible. What to do
with those who are thus in want
after a time becomes a problem.
These people have been helped for
many months and help will have
to be continued indefinitely as. the
family is about .. helpless. The
little boys four in number ought
to be placed in an orphanage or
school somewhere it would seem
where they could in some meae-
ure be equipped for the battle of
life in the future.
Attorney DeRoss Bailey receiv-
ed a message from his partner
Thomas Owen at Muscogee this
morning stating that the bar at
that place had effected a com-
promise with Inspector Wright on
the tax question. The attorneys
are to pay their occupation tax of
$25 per year from now on but the
back tax is remitted; and If the
attorneys gain the suit which is
now pending in the appellate
court the tax they pay is to be
refunded. This appears to be fair
enough iftbere is any law for col-
lecting the tax at all. We think
any law which makes such a pro-
vision a very poor one and hope
it will not remain in force here
long. Wagoner Sayings. (

thousand dollars worth of pictures
in it. Still "mist" is as harmless
and non-intoxicating as soda
water. That government test is a
