Hanover Boys on Bicycle Trip. {Hanover Post.) Clyde Dankert and Elmer \Vendorf of Hanover started out last Monday morning on a sight-seeing trip that has a touch of adventure. With some clothes, cooking utensils and a tent strapped to the carriers of brand new Cleveland bicycles. they're out tor'thé’good of their'healthTâ€"Itmis their intention to spend some three months on the tour, with New Yorkl City as the immediate objective, and} after a few days’ ride they will: pitch their tent, prepare their own meals, and next morning continue their bike. The young fellows have been planning the trip for months past, but kept their own counsel, and few people, outside of their parents, knew of the modern adventurers who slipped Ont of town on their = threeâ€"member tour.

I believe that of all the hygienic measures to counteract depression of spirits, and all the miserable results of a distracted mind. I would undoubtedly give first place to the simple habit of prayer. Let. there be a habit of nightly communion. and such a habit does more to cleanse the spirit and strengthen the soul to overâ€" come mere incidental emotionalness’ than any other agent known to me. This splendid testimony to the value of prayer is of general application. Such a habit will assuredly “cleanse the Spirit” and “strengthen the soul” of all who engage in it. “Statistics teach that the Golden Rule is practical. Statistics teach that prayer is a real force With. unlimited possibilities. Statistics suggest that the next revival of religion will be an economic revival. Business needs, first of all, God.” (Babson).
