Busy days In Tennessee, where the

Revivalists bring their tents to
preach the Word as they see it. That
will do good.—Any sincere religion
is better than none.
Peddlers are selling Bibles to many
that haven't read the Book for years.
That’s good.
Whether you take Jonah and the
whale literally or figuratively, you
cannof deny that the Bible is the
most beautiful and powerfully writ
ten of all books.
There Is one feature not so good In
Dayton. They use the expression "hot
monkeys" Instead of “hot dogs," and
that is not respectful, whether mon
keys are or are not our ancestors.
And they sell corn whisky from the
mountains at $10 a gallon. Ten-dol
lar-a-gallon whisky Is even worse
than “hot monkey” for the human
Interior.
Those that believe In the Bible
word for word and fear that evolution
may destroy Christianity are ad
vised to read once more these three
verses from the 101st Psalm.
“Of old, Thou hast laid the founda
tion of the earth: and the heavens
are the work of Thy hands.
“They shall perish, but Thou shalt
endure: llTea, all of them shall wax
old like a garment; as a vesture shalt
Thou change them, and they Bhall
be changed:
“But Thou are the same, and Thj
years shall have no end."
The courage and genuine faith of
the old psalm writer would consider
ably strengthen the backbone of
Mr. Bryan and other tremblers.
Whoever, thinks one small monkey,
or a whole army of monkeys and Dar
wins can pull down, a religion ex
pressing the will of God, cannot have
a high opinion of God’s power.

In the world, will learn from the
Americans, who will learn from them
and the whole world will profit.
More good will come from Speyer’s
$50,000 than Mr. Barauch's $250,000,

If you looked at the sky last night,
as we all should every night and do
rarely, you saw three beautiful plan
ets, Venus, Mars and Merciiry, shin

Men reproduce themselves in their
maps of the heavens and in their
creation of religions. They put Venus.
Mars and Mercury, representing love,
war and commerce. In the sky. They
attribute to the gods with whom they
people that sky their own emotions,
hatred, jealousy, vengefulness.
More primitive religions even rep
resent their gods as liars, cheats and
destroyers of earth women.

ancient Greek philosopher, “their god

The other day
When fever racked and ran like lurid

So low I lay. When Life seemed very
little and not worth the game
She who was my wife, my dearest
love, came to my bed.
E’en now, altho’ I’m sane again, I
still can sense the fragrance
Of her garments as she crossed the
room and laid
Her cool dear fingers on my head.
I dared not raise an eyelid, nor
breathe, lest she should vanisn
And go back to those dim vista’s
where our loved ones go
When He who rules this universe
deems it Is better so.
I heard her voice again
Full of familiar cadences that

And this her message: "Dear. I know
you are not happy, though
You keep so busy, and our child,
poor little man
He cannot understand why thingB are
so. And though I see
My loved ones every day, I, too, am

And whom we hurt through her iij

Then she was gone.
But still throughout the room
Her presence left with me a rare
perfume, her favorite flower.
Then she was truly here, and I must
hasten to perform
The task she set me. Ah, it Is not easy
when the years have proved
You wrong, to ask for pardon. And
I am only mortal.
But I would not prolong for her I

“Silas Warner”

In Silas Warner the authoress pic
tures human characters as we find
them In everyday life today. Silas
Warner, the man wrongfully ac
cused, shunning his fellow men
Dunstan Cass, the blackmailer,
knowing of his brother’s crime and
using this knowledge to enrich him
self at his brother’s expense. Good
frey, a weak character, trying to
make amends when too late. Nancy,
his wife, too good to be natural, and
Epple, the soul of loyalty and grati

The story proves how the finest
characters may be found among the
humble, while some In the upper
walks of life may be very vile.

Modern Authors
Growing Modest
Authors are getting very modest, J.
C. Squire writes, In the London Ob
server. I have Just been reading a
book of verse of which every page Is
perforated all along the inner margin
as the divisions between stamps on a
sheet are perforated.
At the beginning the considerate
bald had a note, quite serious, stating
that nobody will be pleased with all
his verses, and that he wishes his read
ers to tear out those pages which they
don’t like (if possible, passing them
along to some other person who may)
and keep wiiat they tike, though it be
but a single poem.
And here is Roland A. Knox, toward
the end of a short work of fiction, "The
Viaduct Murder,” shyly inserting this
footnote:
"To the Reader: This chapter may
lie omitted if the hook be thought too
long.”
