We cannot overestimate the power of a dutiful woman and moral and moral and religious character. The world would go to ruin with all of our churches, ministers, Bibles and sermons, man would be a prodigia without the assistance of a dutiful woman. All admit that a dutiful woman is morality and religion; tho love and sociality of humanity. She is loyal to Christ, loyal to the community, she is loyal to her home when her home co-operates with loyalty; loyalty is in union with self respect, and self respect with common sense, aids with confidence, through a dutiful woman. Let The Public Decide If there be any man, or set of men, who doubt that there is an astronomical gift—Let him or them set the day and date, and we will tell you the kind of weather you will have on that date. COLLINS' NEW THOUGHT WEATHER BUREAU FORECAST For Wichita and Vicinity From Aug. 8th to Aug. 15, unsettled. Rain probably. Shifting winds. Changeable Temperature. C. F. Collins, Astro. The Scripture teaches us that when the women were out on their duty early in the morning, the first day of the week, woman was favored with the first message of the risen Christ Great is the power of woman; a dutiful woman is an evangel of goodness to the world; she is a pillar of the eternal kingdom of right. A dutiful woman is a star, shining in the fortunate, her piety is an altar. Are where religion acquires strength to go out on its merciful mission, she seems to have God more near to the heart more in her thoughts, sweeter in her sou', brighter in her vision. A dutiful woman is the real conservation of morality. The moral worth of a dutiful woman holds mas in some restraint and preserves his ways from becoming unhumanly corrupted—Mighty is the power of a Dutiful Woman. Rev. B. M. Miller, Moderator. Rev. W. M. Jones, Recording Sec. Rev. A. M. Hardy, Cor. Sec. S. L. Brown, Reporter. Salina, Kansas News. Sunday School was well attended and a number of new scholars were enrolled.
