Viewed with a microscope and it is tetriblo enough, but looked at from 11 litting dist'iuce it is lost to slight. Often it is only a sign of unhealthy skin in one small spot, that is all. Thus also with tho startling murders that reach our knowledge through a microscopic press. Awful aro their details and enormous seem their tendencies as they till out columns of space to tho exclu sion from our vision of all thesn things that are progtcssivo and healthy. Bo liuve, tho powerful poisons in our Na tional life ato not to be found in these fierce blotches, unsightly though they may scorn. Theiu is more danger beneath the .smooth skin of a false civ ilization, wheie selfishness rules em ployers, and, in tin 11, dominates tho workers as well; wheie men loso sight of their obligations to one -mother; whoro purses bleed piide and poverty breeds envy; wheio beneath sancti monious ptofessions lust mles riinpant both uithiu and withoutthe hou hold; where boys aie not taught torev nco womanhood, and wheie gir's-ue not taught to revel enee themselves.

True enough! whether you havo in your mind a per son or an organ of tho body. So mark you, before wo go any farther, that in food there is both lifo and death. Tho very elements that strengthen us, and build our tissues, begin to poison us unless they aro removed from tho body as soon as their work is done, and in this labor of removal, the organ men tioned above does quiet, uncomplain ing sorvico under great aggravation from some of us, unholy caters of com plex dishes. So far as our bodily lifo is concerned, tbo world is nothing but a vast feeding crib, whereat wo must linger, if wo would live, nnd wboreby wo are laying up painful burdens to ourselves anless wo eat wisely and not too well. But Just as tho child is dis contented with creeping, after it once stands upright, so the joys of the world of thought mako us sink to a secondary place tho joys of tho world of food, and the "liver's" estimate of life and its worth is settled by tho thoughts ho has. If ho is satislied with tbo thoughts of others and lots them pass through his brain liko water passes through an opon sluico-way leaving nothing bo hind except a high-wator mark it is not astonishing that ho finds lifo empty. Thought, liko food, must bo mndo to sui render to us nourishment, which thereupon bocomes part of ourselves. If ho takes of tho thought of times past, holds onto them us though thought never moved, swears by tho knowledgo ho gained years ago, closes his mind both against tho gaining or giving of new, progressive, helpful ideas, littlo wonder that lifo scorns liko tho mockery of daylight to a blind man. Thought, liko food, must bo constantly added to and novor retained indefinitely without roacting upon tho world wo livo in or wo stagnnto in mind nnd become sluggish nnd ulti mately usolcss. Or if ho holds himself ready to bo stuffed with opinions quicker than ho can digest theai liko sotno unhappy tui keys that 1 remomber in my child hood us boing periodically forced gorgo-f ull of barley meal it is not sur prising tlint he takes a muddled and bewildered view of tho one life to tho end of which ho is hastening.
