N. July 23, 191'1. Dog Poisoning. There is reported Croni; town-art outbreak of ddg.p.biSoning.'. This is something many 'communities: have sufl'ered and it is a proceeding as diflicult tpi-ac- it is is impossible, for.the ordinary the.iiioliye when he 'a wholesale scale, as is usupy the -'the' ihg: of any cdfrHtiuriity.

troublesome dogs were poisoned, or if--thowriers of fiendishness' were Btitfhvmoit 1 communities when'the poisoning of. dogs begins work proceeds with no apparent discrimination all kinds; from theipets of children to the most Ajiiiiible'Hunting dogs, sucfcunibjlo the hidden stroke of the persoh ciipable of this fornvof maliciousness. The crime is as difficult to detect as that of incendiarism, and the result is that in.very few cases, if any, are (he guilty persons brought to are persons who have an instinctive dislike for dogs, but the.great, majority of 'the human family is constituted titherwise. Most men and practically all children have a fondness for dogs- the most companionable of all dumb animals. He who has not known the a dog has missed one of the strongest attyeli- meills in the world.

What happier sight is there than a healthy bqiy or girl romping and carousing wjtli a good-natured dog? The person who can be guilty poisoning a dog without specific cause must be abnormal in some particular. If a dog is. not properly cared for by its owner and is disposed to arid allowed to make itself, complaint should be made to the owner, and if he fails to, act the authorities of the town or city should be appealed Not uiitll all other means have been exhausted should one take into, his own hands the task of removing such a nuisance as a troublesome dog may be, and then he should go about it like a mail and not like a sneaking coward. The dog poisoner is loathed and hated by every normal man, woman'and child, and il is regrettable that it is next (0 impossible to'apprehend and bring him to justice. Samuel W.

McCall has'the call for the republican nomiiia- tion for governor in Massachusetts. He'has announced his willingness to.be (he candidate and his nomination at the primaries is a foregone conclusion.

There appears to be no-limit to the audacity of those who would turn modern life into a carnival of indecency. One congressman io ihe 'national, treasury being pay for time when he was off duly. His action is in accordance with a law which has generally been regarded as a dead letter, and it is quite safe to say il will continue to be so regarded.iirspite of this lone and unexpected instance of its observance. When the United States senate falls to discussing the meaning of the word "pork," as applied to appropriation bills, as it did the other "day, it would seem to be about time for "adjournment and for the members to go home, where their constituents could tell them.

Of her never failing love and patience.

In introducing Mr. Col. Keefe told of Farmer coming home one day seyeral years before full of enthusiasm because of two young men who had Dcon attracted to Green Acre and she expressed her delight saying that it was just such young men as these that she hoped Green Acre would attract. Mr. spoke of Miss Farmer's universal view of life of her great love for all humanity; of her-ability to see in the microcosm the macrocosm, arid thus encircie the whole earth.

He thert read the resolutions which were met with great enthusiasm. Mrs. lireed spnke of having taken a arge basket of i and flowers with loving' greetings to Miss Farmer in the morning. She also spoke of not. able to locate the original Peace Hag but a peace and love reigned supreme in the hearts of all and that this was the reality of the cause.

The Eirenion was beautifully decorated with flowers and pine boughs. Many prominent people from rounding places were present, as well ts those a i the Green Acre inferences. The spirit was one of great peace, good will ajid fellowship. The following resolutions were passed: "We, members and friends of Green A.cre and as neighbors and townsfolk of Eliot--but first of ali as loving- friends of Sarah J. Farmer, the founder of Green Acre, have come together on this her birthday to express to'her our heartfelt affection anil our sincere prayer that she shall soon, very once more these hallowed fields And again to minds and quickening she ever so sweetly and powerfully bestowed.

We are met here on a spot she loves, the scene of many a spiritual conquest; here thousands have found the inspirations of Peace and for the first time discovered the traces of the fragrant spirit of oneness. For nearly twenty years Sarah Farmer has labored here at Green serving that vision of Peace which lived within her inmost heart--for she knew that the Kingdom of God can reach outward expression on this earth only when the hearts of rrien cease to respond to the stimulus of war, and the marching the cruelty and bloodshed. But Hhe knew also the real harbinger of this great Peace for which she yearned is the oneness of the hearts --the deliverance of men from the bondage of race and religious prejudices.

The fire retreats and concentrates i i into a pure flame, pure as the stars to which il "This is the path which leads to the heights, and upon tins, Sarah .1. Farmer has veritably walked. All of these experiences both inner and outer of which 12merson speaks she has tasted, and it would seem more than these.

And inasmuch as the outward experience, as Emerson hints, bear no necessary relation to the inner reality, so also we are to know that her life will not be measured by any one of its years or periods but as a whole life, powerful in its influence upon the lives of others. It la a life dealing wholly with the essentials, perhaps sometimes careless of and therefore at times a prey to the outward, accidental conditions. And If this seems incomprehensible to some, is this not the instance referred to by the philosopher from whom we quoted, that at such times, when vicissitudes oppress, and the outer life is seemingly barren and contradictory, 'the lire' (of the is in truth burning brightly within, pure and in safety in its inmost temple. As the years go on the purity and exalted aim of her beautiful individuality will become more and more disclosed, while her deeds and life will shine with light. Although she is physically a few miles away her spirit is here and rejoices in this "Our happiness in thus commemorating Miss Farmer's i a is therefore real, and well-founded.

The tree of her life not only already produced a veritable harvest of fruits, but we are ever hoping that in her remaining years the harvest'Shall be a. hundred-fold. Inasmuch as this is a day of happiness and good cheer, out of the fullness of the hearts we would show forth a loving expression. "Be it therefore resolved that in the life and ideals of her, whose birthday we celebrate today, the world may well find inspiration and hope. Inspiration: because through true enthusiasm and single hearted purpose she has awakened and revivified hundreds of souls who were slumbering in the sHcep of neglect; Hope: because in the materialistic society of this western world she lias afforded so rare an example of noble sacrifice for the great ideals of Peace and Jjove.

"And because this is so we hereby pledge to her our enduring friendship and sincere affection. "And be it resolved that a copy of this resolution and preamble be sent to Miss farmer personally, and also engrossed upon 'the records of the Fellowship." This resolution was enthusiastically and unanimously adopted by those present. happy a he has consented to speak again in her conferences. iThe lecture "The Resurrection and Eternal Life" will be given at Oaklea; Miss Farmer having 'been denied the use of her property for her conifer- cnces.
