men, was designed to bring peace with

the shooting of "Judge ' James Harsis

the latter is confined has been guarded
by troops to prevent attempts to liber

1 nousands of persons attended the
funeral ot Judge Hargis, tramping
throush the deep mud to the old Hargis
homestead, near w:hich the body was
buried m the family cemetery. Hie

the pallbearers the entire distance.
There is no hearse m Jackson and no

veiy me mere may be calm. To so
Jive that this inward peace may be a
peimanent possession is one of the
highest of objectives.
Every creature must fight and con
tend for life. This is the universal rule.
Into this universal conflict everv indi
vidual must go. No man who "would
live his life at its best can isolate
himself from the world and avoid the
struggle with outward opposing forces.
But, however fiercely the strife may
rush outside us, at the center of our in
dividual life there may be unruffled
peace, as at the heart of every cyclone
there is an area of perfect stillness.
There are some who try to secure
quietness of life bv withdrawing from
the world. This no one who is wise
will do. Men who attempt to do this
need to be called back into the strug
gle that they may not lose their possi
bilities. Centuries ago John Calvin,
the great scholar and theologian, tried
to isolate himselt. A friend sent him
some burning words which brought
him to a sense of his danger: "I per-

good for any man who is seeking to
avoid his proper share in the world's
work to hear a trumpet call like that.
It was this characteristic of peace
within that Jesus promised His disci
ples and so beautifully exemplified in
His own lite. When the disciples were
wrangling among themselves as to who
should have the precedence, Ke
brought a little child and placed him
in the midst of them. In His farewell
discourse He spake to them of Ilis
jov, saving, '-My joy I give unto you."
When he uttered these words He was
in a rented room, the disciples before
Him had largely, misunderstood , His
teaching; before Him was Gethsemane
and the cross; yet He was untroubled,
undisturbed. The joy which He pos
sessed, was a joy unaffected by out
ward conditions. It was a peace and
calm like that of the ocean far beneath
the waves that are swept by the
storms.
That which brings peace to the heart
of man is the assurance of the Father
peaco is priceless. It can be found on--lv,
as Mr. Gladstone said, through thatj
old. old storjs in that old, old book,
which is God's greatest gift to man. j
When Mr. Spurgeon was asked by a
friend to state what he thought was!
the greatest gift possible to a Chris
tian traveller in this world, he re
sponded, "A sense of perfect peace
with God."
He Noticed It. Too.
A one-armed man entered a restau
rant at noon and seated himself next
to a dapper little other-people's-bu-siness
man. The latter at once no
ticed his neighbor's left sleeve hang
ing loose and kept eyeing it in a
how-did-it-happen sort of a way.
The one-armed man paid no attention
to him but kept on eating with his
one hand. Finally the inquisitive one
could stand it no longer. He chang
ed his position a little, cleared his
throat, and said: "I beg pardon, sir,
but I see you have lost an arm."
The one arm man picked up his
sleeve with his right hand and peered
anxiously into it. "Bless my soul!"
he exclaimed, looking up with great
surprise. "I do believe you're right.'

BEWARE OF PHYSICS.
Only Aggravates Stomach Trouble and
Never Cures.
The trouble with most people who
have stomach trouble is that they do
not like to take the time to get cured;
they overeat and then take physic,
which simply upsets the stomach and
never cures.
While relief follows one or two doses
of Mi-o-na stomach tablets, chronic and
king-standing cases need at least two
of fhree weeks' treatment befor the
sick headaches, dizzy spells, bloating,
heartburn, constipation, nervousness
and other symptoms that directly re
sult from indigestion are banished
never to return.
Mi-o-na is entirely different from the
ordinary stomach remedies. It is tak
en before meals, stimulating the secre
tion of digestive juices and strength
ening the stomach so that it can do
its proper work.
With every 50-cent box of Mi-o-na

remedy cures.
building operations. Industrial plants
are more active, pig iron production
rising to the best weekly average in
three months. Some strikes were
threatened because of necessary re
ductions in wages, but little inter
ruption occurred. Credits are still
closely scanned, and mercantile col-i
lections are by no means satisfac
tory, yet payments are more prompt
and the volume of business is dis
tinctly heavier. Liabilities of com
mercial failures in February were
smaller than in the two months pre
ceding, and banking defaults were in
significant as compared with the
monthly mortality sinse the October
panic. Railway earnings declined
15.7 per cent in comparison with
those of February, 1907, the' returns
for the fourth week being much bet
ter than the earlier figures. Foreign
commerce continues to supply a
phenomenal balance in favor of this
country, at this port alone for the
latest week exports increasing $6,
795,200 while imports decreased $6,
996,151 as compared with the same
week last year. Securities were a
little more active and prices averaged
slightly higher than last week, while
money is abundant and easy despite
treasury withdrawals of government
deposits. Bank exchanges at New
York for the week were 46.7 per
cent less than a year ago, largely be
cause of the decrease in sales of se
curities, while at other leading cities
the decrease averaged 16.3 per cent.
There is a suggestion of perma
nence in the steady improvement in
the iron and steel industry that
would be lacking were recovery more
sensational. Each week brings a few
more mills and furnaces into the act
ive list, while specifications on old
contracts constantly call for a larger j
tonnage. Statistics of pig iron pro
duction on March 1 tell the story in
a convincing manner. Despite the
shortness of the month, February's
output of pig iron was 1,079,721 tons,
according to the Iron Age, against
1,045,250 tons in January, and the
daily average was 37,232 tons against
33,718. Still better results are prom
ised for the current month, the week

love, is working lor tne Dest. it is
not through the possession of things,
that calm comes. Unless the inner
life . is right there can be no peace,
whatever one's possessions may be.
The price of inward peace, according
to the teaching of Jesus, is the seeking
first of the kingdom of God and His
righteousness. . Only to those who trust
their Heavenly Father fully and serve
Him onlv, is peace assured.
Jesus gave the most tender assurances
of His heavenly Father's care. He said:
