Far from the beaten highway of civili zation, stuck against tho shoulder of a Kentucky mountain, is a little log build ing where the simple mountain folks gather to worship after the primeval methods of the early church. Being called to that neighborhood on business sonio time ago, and being there on Sunday, I decided to attend services, as tho old gen tleman with whom I was stopping was one of tho leading supporters of the church and pressingly invited mo to accompany him. "You won't see no fine, highflerlootin doins' at our place of worship," he said, with a good naturcd smile lighting his rough foatures, "but you'll find folks that believes in tho good Lord, and tries to fol low his steps with tho best lights they can git in their hands." Tho preacher was a man named Pen rod Rev. Len Pcnrod a man who, about two years ago, achieved much national notoriety for shooting at a deacon while engaged in a fiery dispute over the ellicacy of pedobaptism. The house was crowded with large, rough looking men, in their shirtsleeves; young women in tho glory of gay ribbons; matrons in calico of subdued colors, and with many varieties of little ones cluster ed in bouquets hero and there. When Rev. Pen rod arose to preach nil whispering stopped. Every eyo was bent upon him, and every ear was poised to catch the words that fell from his lips. The sermon was just the kind of an ad dress to stir tho emotions especially theso of a trusting, unlettered people. He ilis cussed no doctrinal points. lie used no circumlocution. He struck out in short, crisp sentences that went direct to the un derstanding of tho simplest intellect. Withal, he was eloquent. His tones were rich, modulated, stirring and mag netic. It soon became evident ho was reaching the simple hearts of this emotional pc.ple, in fact, tho most cultured auuu nee could not have sat unmoved by his thrilling ap peals. A number of rough men, 1 noticed, were smashing tears with tho balls of their thumbs. Scores of women had their faces in their aprons and were weeping audibly. Soon a young woman about 18, of beau tiful face and figure, sprang out into the center of the floor, and setting her large, dark eyes on the roof, gave a startling scream. The people all turned their faces toward her and encouraged her with shouts of "Amen!" and "Bless God!" She first moved about in a slow, graceful circle Then faster and faster she went, until directly she leaped high from the floor, smote her beautiful hands together and shouted, "Glory, glory, glory!" Then around and around she whirled, almost as fast as a top, clapping her hands all tho while and shouting, "Glory, glory, glory!" There was a rapt expression on her beau tiful countenance as if she viewed through the veil of sense a face in paradise. Finally she halted and stood still for a moment, her arms elevated and out stretched and the seraphic expression still fixed on her la e Then with a wild shriek she started for the door. "Whar's Meshy?" was chorused aloud by many throats At that instant the crowd toward the door parted and in stepped a tall, hand some, fine built man of about 40 years, with iron gray hair and mustache. He stepped toward the half frenzied girl, took her in his arms and cased her down to a bench. He sat down by her side and her head fell over on her shoul der. In that position sho lay, seemingly ly unconscious, until the sermon was through. There was no more notice taken of her by the congregation. When tho meeting was over, tho man stroked her forehead several times with a tender palm, spoke to her in a low voice lor a moment when she aroused herself and fixed for starting home. As, soon as wo were a short distance away, I inquired of my old friend 1 had accompanied the meaning of this novel proceeding and tho cry of "Whar's Mosby?" "That has been a cry familiar in church here for 25 years," he said. Corn responds readily to proper fer tilization.

GERMAN KALI WORKS, 93 Nassau St., New York. "It was u cry long afore the girl was born. Her mother many years ago was just like her a pirty, fine lookin gal, mighty religious an fond of shoutin. She, the mother, was in lovo with Mosby. Nev er cared for no one else. "When sho would take them shoutin tanterims like tho gal took today an was about to tako what wo call tho jerks, it was found that Mosby was the only person thet could stop her and keep tho jerks off. Every meetin she'd lake a spell, an tho shout woultl go up as it did today, 'Whar's Mosby V "The mother, of course, wanted to mar ry Mosby, but her father put in a big ob jection, sayin that no man who never owned a coon dog or a still could have a gal of his. Mosby an the gal persisted, an finally tho olo man shot at him an drove him outen tho country. "Soon alter that the olo man, arter forcin the gal to marry Lon Peterson, his partner in tho moonshino business, turned up his olo trotters, gaped a timo or two an died. "In tho course of time Mosby camo back. His ole sweetheart he'd saved from tho jerks so often was married an had a little gal baby tho one that shouted to day. "Waal, soon arter ho como homo ho went to church one day an his olo flanio wuz thar, an would, of course, shout. People wuz all eager to know what would bo tho outcome. "Soon arter the preacher begun Mrs. Peterson got in. Sho kep' on an on an on, an folks got uneasy. II er husband worked with her, but ho didn't have no inlloonco at all with her. Her eyes got glassy and skearry lookin at last, an then all the people shouted: " 'Whar's Mosby?' "Mosby come forward, mighty timid, an took holt. She jist melted down in his arms, an he eased her to the bench. Her head fell over on his shoulder an then roll off like a ball. It kep' rollin off, an rollin oil, till finally we got uneasy. Waal, some one placed her poor head back again an looked in her eyes. Sho was dead! "The gal is jist like her mother in everything. As soon as sho was old enough to git religion she begun to shout like her poor mother, an it was soon found, like her poor mother, it took Mosby to save her from the jerks. "Her an Mosby will be married next Sunday, an, mark my words, when the preacher starts up, after the ceremony, an goes to preach in, you'll see tho same capers as you did outen her today, an the sainu ole cry will swell up: " 'Whar's Mosbyi" "Noel Johnson in Louisville Courier-Journal.
