THE REV. GEORGE
STUARTS PRAYER.
At an annual meeting of
railroad men some time ago,
Rev. George Stuart, a favorite
preacher among the boys of
the South, was asked to open
the meeting with prayer. We
give below the prayer in full
just as it fell from his lips:
“O Lord, we meet as a
body ot railroad men, with our
wives and daughters, to con
sult for our interest. We are
reminded that life itself is a
train and the road to Heaven
a railroad; God’s truth the
trains; God’s love the fire, and
His promise the signal light.
O Lord, we recognize Thee as
the General Manager of our
road, the Superintendent of
our train, and our Chief Des
patches Thou didst survey
the right-of-way and Thy Son
purchased it with His blood.
Thou didst lay the track and
ballast the road; Thou hast
furnished the rolling-stock,
and art the owner and con
troller of it all. We look to
Thee for all our orders and
Thou must sign the checks for
our daily bread. Be merciful
in handling our human mis
takes and blunders, and do
not discharge Thy unworthy
servants.
“We are grateful for the
Bible, Thy book of rules and
instructions; be merciful in
our examination, and look with
charity upon our failures.
Thy promises and warnings
are our headlights and hand
lanterns; help us to so use
them as to save our train from
wreck. Deliver us from
broken rails, blind switches,
false signals, and mistaken
orders. Be with us on every
high bridge of responsibility,
on every sharp curve of emer
gency, and every weak trestle
of danger. In every dark
tunnel of trouble let the light
of Thy promises shine bright.
Grant us passes for our wives
and children and let them go
with us. When the storms of
temptation and trial come,
save us from the fatal slide
and washout that have
wrecked so manv trains on the
road of life. Let our way—
kept secure by Thy guardian
<"are—always show the steel
rail and rock ballast and be
solid and firm and free from
obstruction. Deliver us from
the snares of our enemy.
May the headlight of Thy
truth shine bright on a thrown
switch, false signal, or fatal
obstruction placed for the
wreckage of our train. May
our emergency-brake, our
strong will, save us.
“As we make our last run,
headed homeward, if it be Thy
will, order our train on time.
Let every semaphore block
along the line show the white
signal. Let the light of Thy
promises burn bright through
the last dark tunnel of death;
and as we run through it into
the grand Central Station of
the skies, may we have the
approving smile of the General
Manager and Superintendent;
sign with joy the pay-roll, re
ceive our wages, and have an
eternal lay-off with God and
the angels and our loved ones
at home, and we will praise
Thee forever. Amen.”

BETTER THAN COTTON
Mr. D. M. Huff informs us
that Soldier King, a tenant on
his farm near town, raised 25
bushels of second crop Irish
potatoes on less than one
quarter of an acre and that
he is receiving $2.50 a bushel
for same. This looks better
than 20 cent cotton to Mr.
Huff and he intends increasing
the potato acreage next year.
He was exhibiting eight of the
spuds Wednesday which
weighted four and one-half
pounds.

Not Working But Tired Out.
When one feels always
tired without working, or suf
fers from backache, lumbago,
rheumatic pains, sore muscles
or stiff joints it is not always
easy to locate the source of
trouble, but very frequently it
can be traced to overworked,
weakened or diseased kidneys.
