*E REFUSES TO SIGN HIS NAME
“Fools’ Names, Like Fools’ Faces,
Are Always Seen in Public
Places, Says Methodist
To The Newark .journal:
I will ask The Newark Journal
aud its readers to pardon the
“thing" for using more space in
your valuable paper in replying
t* liev. 1). 1). Phd. Ty. .1. K. Cos
sey, Esq. liev. Cossey says that
he can not call me brother or si—
ter, since I did not sign my name.
Then just call me brother or sis
ter thing. However, if he will
not commune with me, and his
Baptist church will not allow him
to, 1 don't think he could consist,
eutl.v call me brother. The word
brother when applied to family
means that ones so closely related
should pull together for good and
for the honest advancement of
each other; that they are tied to
gether by chords of the same Hesh
and blood. Brother as applied to
churches means of the same faith
in (dod and as applied to any oth
er organization as a friend or
brother in that organization, and
should not be used only from the
teeth out, but should be carried
out in the fullest sense of the
word Surely he would not call
me brother or sister, thus ridicul
ing the word, by refusing to com
mun° with me and showing such
an unbrotherl.v spirit towards me.
1 refuse to sign my name. Some
one has very wisely said that
“Fools' urines, like fools' faces
are always found it. public places. “
I am not afraid to sign my name
but if I did 1 would not prefix
Kev. to it. The dictionary givees
the definition to the word Rev. as
worthy of reverence; entitled to
respect mingled with fear and af
fection. So "Rev.” Cossey swells
himself up and says, “1 am enti
tied to respect mingled with fear
and affection. “Vanity of vani
ties saith the preacher; till is vani
ty." It is our belief that Cossey
actually went out to tin- barn and
putting his head in a barrel yelled
“Rev." several times in success
ion to hear how it sounded. And
probably the thing is not stinking
for publicity so much that he
woidd write’an extensive article
and sign his name to it just to see
h >w it would sound in print. He
says that he has the authority to
bring about light. Ego, ego, ego,
whence comest thou with all the
wisdom of the Nazarine to turn on

xtony and that it contains preju
dice, gall and bitterness, li was
our understanding that the heart
v is flesh, a muscle used to pump
liiood which permeates the auricle*
a:id ventricles. If I mn in that
dangerous condition ami the broth

of it ! would be very much oblig
ed, unless he wants to give me the
deep water cure.

and dirty his pants. I do not be
lievo the Bible commands us to do
this, as it says cleanliness is next
to Godliness. It is our under
standing that the word “baptize”
comes from the Greek w >rd
“bupHdzo, “ which means to pour,
to plunge, paint, to sprinkle, etc.
Who lias the authority to say it
means just one of these. 1 believe
it is either that answers the con
science of the applicant for bap
tism. He seems to think that the
Baptists have been very badly
treated I feel that they are no
better than tire Methodists, and
that they threw the Hr.^t bomb in
to the church and into the paper.
I will again ask the people and
Tin* Journal to pardon me and

THE OTHER SIDE
A now idea has been advanced
by a newspaper man in an adjoin
ing state regarding rite mail order
business. The newspaper man
saw a farmer friend of his receiv
iny a set of harness from the
freight office, the assignment com
ing from a Chicago mail order
house, and remorWrathig with
him, at tempting to prove that lo*
was making a mistake, as many of
the local dealer* would sell him the
same or better goods just as cheap,
and keep th * profirs at home.
“Bnt this is tin; first time I have
heard there wis a harness shop in
this town. I have taken your pa
per for five years and have never
seen a line in it about such an in
sti urion it) all the time i have
been a ~ubserib<jr But you see
tin* Chicago hou*e has kept me
posted all lire time " And there
is more truth in the statement than
the average m•■reliant <1 reams of,
who fails to let the public know
he i*> in bu-ines-.
\V1 rii a man begins hunting for
an excuse for a mean action he
can genera iy find it.

point, but ' ev are more apt to go

GREAT DAMAGE DONE BY INSECTS
Farmers Lose heavily Every Year
From Ravages of Insects
Brought tothis Country
Congress has appropriated *:< ().
000 to import bugs to rat up the
gypsy moths. Those moths wen*
brought to the United States some
years ago in an experiment to be
{ermine whether they were silk
producers. They escaped from
custody and began eating Boston's
trees. From Boston they spread
through Massachusetts, and t ,ey
are now ravaging all New England.
They have caused damage estimat
ed at millions cf dollars.
Most of the injurious insect
pests which destroy vegetation in
the United States me imported.
The Hessian fly, which, with the
chinch-bug, does over $l00,<i(O,
000 damage to the wheat crop an
nually, was brought over in the
forage of the British army in the
Revolution. The San .lose scale,
which is limiting productive or
chards to men with expensive
spra.\ing apparatus, is of recent
knowledge and probably came
from Asia. The boll weevil came
from Guatemala through Mexico.
Even the potato bug has its right
to American ancestry challenged.
There are (wo ways to combat
these insects, which do millions of:
dollars damage, every year* to I
the crops of the United States j
One is by human endeavor -by:
spraying, b.v poisons by rotation;
of crops and fresh soil, by select
cd seed and by careful cultiva
tion.
'i lie other way i* to import the
natural parasites from the coun
tries whence the destructive in-;
sects came. Ihat ha* been tried;
with the seal'* in California and i
the boll weevil in Texas. It is
now to be tried with the g.vps.v
moth. Home & Farm.
