No Ground for Libel
Damages for Deupre
(From a Staff Correspondent)

Fletcher and Z. T. Hicks, the supreme

ing house and hotel. The defendants were
: accused by the plaintiff of libelling him
by printing and circulating a notice to
Deupree in which It was stated he was
running a house of ill fame, coupled with
the demand he leave town I na few days.
Deupree claimed that as a result he was
forced to go out of business.
In a former decision the high court had
reof firmed the Judgment for damages, but
a rehearing was allowed and the supreme
benoh concludes It erred. The present
opinion by Judge Bedgwlok says there
Is no reasonable donbt that the place had
a bad reputation and was use! for im
moral purposes.

fifteen days must elapse between the pub
lication of notice and hearing in the pro

Be Ready Always
For the Hope
"PUly" Sunday preached Sunday morn
ing on the topic, "Hope." He said:
Text. I Feter ltl:l&-"Be ready always
to give an answer to every one that
asketh thee a reason for the hope that
Is within thee."
One of the most beautiful and Inspiring
poems ea-er written In the English lan
guage was upon the pleasures of hope, a
verse of which Is as follows:
Ceese every Joy to glimmer on my mind,
But leave, o leave the light of hope
behind;
What though my bright hours hare been
I.Ike angels' visits, few end far between.
Their musing moods shall every pang
appease.
And charm when pleasures lose their
power to appease.
The fact Is that hope seems to spring
eternal In the human breast.
Eac-Commlasloner of Pensions Ware,
who wrote under the nom de plume of
"Iron Quill," In his famous poem entitled
"The Washer-Woman's Song," said:
In every humble cot, In a rather quiet
spot.
In the suds and In the soap, worked a
woman full of hope;
'Working, singing, all alone. In a sort of
undertone,
With a Saviour for a friend who will keep
her to the end.
'Tie a song 1 do not alng, for I scarce be
lieve a thing
Of the stories which are told of the
miracles of old;
Tet I know that her belief Is an anodyne
. to grief,
Tet the woman haa a Friend who will
keep her to the end;
And I would not wish to strip, from that
washer-woman's Hp.
Any song that she might sing.
Or any hope that song might bring;
For her Saviour Is a Friend
Who will keep her to the end.
Etven he was compelled to confess that
aha had a Saviour and a friend of whom
he knew absolutely nothing.
The fact Is, there Is only, one hope the
Christian's hope.
There la Bat One Hope,
When Sir Walter Soott was dying he
said to his son-in-law: "Bring ma tho
book."
"What book?" lie' said.
"There Is but one book; bring mo the
Bible!"
And they brought In ths Bible.
There Is but one hope that can cheer
us when life's hours are darkest, whether
on the battlefield or In the quiet of our
homes surrounded by loved ones. There
Is but one hope that can stand by us in
our helplessness, and that la the Christian
hope.
The longing In the human heart today
Is for comfort and peace. Riches, power,
position. In themselves or combined, will
not give this.
There are broken hearts one plaoe as
well as another. There are sorrows among
ths rich as well as the poor.
People in the palace sigh for the touch
of hands that have turn to dust as well
aa those In the hovel groan for the sight
of faces which they will never behold
again.
I cannot define my hope, neither can
T define yours, but I know I have It I
feel like the old saint when the minister
asked him to stand and tell the people
of the hope and peace In his heart, he
leaped to his feet and said:
"It is not given to a poor sinner like
me to tell In a lifetime all that 4od
does for my soul In one day."
It was Christmas eve In Baltimore.
The streets were thronged with shop
pers and sight-seers, and in front of a
toy store stood a little boy and girl,
with the marks of poverty plainly vis
ible, shivering in the winter's blast
People turned and looked and they saw
that the little girl was blind and they
said to the little boy:
"Little boy, what are yon doing out
here in this bitter cold night with that
little blind girir
He said: "6he Is my sister and our
mamma la poor. She has to wash for
her money. She hadn't any money to
buy us Christmas presents and she told
me that I could bring sister out ssjt,
her of the pretty things that are ln'the
windows, anj that would have to do."
They led them In, filled their arms
with gifts. They staggered home In
childish glee and laid at the feet of
their mother the gifts of tender hearts.
Out of the conucopla of. heaven God has
poured Into our arms and hearts and laps
the blealngs we have enjoyed, and some
of you have not grace enough to be
grateful and to acknowledge their source,
and I hope and pray that God will send
you out of here with your hearts filled
with gratification and lova for Him as
never before.
The world thinks we have no reason
for this hope. That is not so. But I want
to tell you I want to show you a few
reasons why I have it. and I hope It
might beget a corresponding desire in
your heart.
Pleasures Will Never Satisfy,
In the first plnce it is a reasonable
hope. I look around about me and find
everything provided for my body, but
nothing for my soul. Light for my eyes,
sound for my ears, air for my lungs, but
I find nothing for my soul.
The world is going mad today looking
for peace of soul. If the present rats of
Insanity Increases with the present In
crease of population, in 60 years there
won't be a cane man In America.
Ah! They are looking for roses on tho
oheeks of dea; th- are looking for fruit
beneath the snows and Ice of the Klon
dyke. Take wealth does it satisfy? No. Tou
never saw a man's heart as dead and
hard and penurious as to be satisfied wltb
the clanking of gold, did youT No.
Don't pleasures satisfy T No! I have
stood on the streets of Chicago before
the theaters, and seen beautifully gowned
women pass by mo, dressed In the height
of fashion, searching for peace through
pleasures.
They have worn tiaras and sunbursts
and stomachers of diamonds; they have
come In the finest of automobiles, with
retinues of servants and attendants. De
tectives would be In front and after them
to protect their Jewels.
After ths play they would go to ths
restaurants, and ordering ths choicest of
viands and foods thoy would gormandise
until their appetites were satisfied. Then'
going home, they would be met with serv
ants and taken to their bed chambers,
and put to bed by attendants.
Lying In silks and choicest of clothes,
they would cry for peace and rest Can
pleasures satisfy? No. never!
Lord Byron cried out:
Fill aaraln ths golden goblet, I'll drink It
dry.
My days are like a yellow loaf; ths canker
and the grief are mine alone.
I've had my will; I've tasted every pleas
ure, And drank my fill of the measure
'Tls seat; sin Is my guest
O the leaves of life are bitter; give ma
rest.
But like s fool I drank It dry,
Love has passed me by,
O the leaves of life are bitter, let me diet
God forbid that When yoar eyes to
earth's glories grow dim. you will have
lived such a life that that would be a fit
ting epitaph for your tombstone. No,
pleasures don't do It.
Fame Does Not Satisfy Mrs.
Fame? No. Eleot a man constable and
to Give Reason
that Is Within You
he wants to be a sheriff. Make him
sheriff and he wants to be a congress
man. Elect htm to congress and he wants
to be a senator. Make him a senator and
he wants to be a cabinet officer. Make
him that and he wants to be president.
MlkA him nresldent nnee and lie wants rt
be president twice. Make him president j
twice and he says he wants to me presi
dent a third time.
No, fame does not satisfy.
The most magnificent example of the
utter futility of fame that I ran find Is
that of Lord Cllve. The treatment of Ad
miral Dewey after the battle of Manila
pales Into Insignificance beside the fate
of General Cllve. Ills father wrote him
and said:
"Son, hurry home; ths nation Is in
transports of Joy over your success."
Cllve returned to Hngland and Parlia
ment elevated him to a peeraae and gave
htm an annuity to 2o0,00n sterling and
gave him a vast old feudal estate.
Whenever General Cllve wojild appear
en the streets business wrtdld suspend
and they would all rush and stand with
uncovered heads to do him honor, and
yet, with an endless stream of gold flow
ing into his pockets from the exchequer
of England and with the applause of the
people ringing In his ears, he climbed
Into ths garret, nclied a pistol and sent
a bullet through his brain.
Fame? No, sir; fame won't satisfy.
Fame won't feed your soul.
Personal charms will never win. No,
sir. And yet how many think that's all
there Is I
Lady Hamilton's charms and beauty
were proverbial. Lady allmilton's smile
and charms did for Nelson what guns
of France could not do. She nearly
wrecked two foreign dynasties of Europe
by her smiles sjtd charms.
llapeburg In Austria and Italy! Ah.
but time rolled on and the old satanlc
driver whipped up his demonlao charges
of habit, and with their Iron hoofs they
cut their telltale marks upon her tore
hoad, her cheeks and her chin, and the
blossoming almond tree was turned Into
the snowdrifts of despair and the scor
pions of passion held post mortems over
her rotting remains.
Tears afterward a woman walked Into
a butcher shop In Oils, France, to buy
a piece of meat for her dog, nnl tho
butcher's wife said to her:
Tou look like a kind-hearted woman
who would be glad of the opport inlty to
purchase and give a woman to cat for
herself any ft-ce of meat you mlxht
consider goo enough only for your don.
There Is a woman upstatrs dylnq ?n
poverty, who would be thankful for it "
And the woman dying there was Lady
Hamilton, at whose feet kings and dultrr
earls and princes had bowed. Thy hod
fought for her smile. Her smile mea-it
success. Her frown meant defeV.
O, no, personal charms won't do It.
Hope Will "till Re Far Away.
When the poet Bhlller 'was u boy hr.
would gaxe at his native mountain and
wonder at their beauty. One day h
said: .
"Mamma, come here lol'-V l.onk at
those mountains. Some day when I grow
old I will cllmto to the top and knock
at the door of heaven, and when tho
angel opens I will peek in.
Schiller became a man. He climbed to
the top, and torn, bleeding and thirsty,
ho reached the top. Ue gaxed at the
heaven above him, and heaven was JustlTh
as far away as possible. ll"?
Tou can climb the ladder ' of fame,
drink of tha springs of pleasure, amass
and pile you wealth like King Coresus.
and after you have climbed to the great
est height I want to te!l you that the
hope that youyr soul reaches after will
be Just aa far away as ever.
"What will It profit a man If he gain
the' whole world and lose his own soul?"
A few years ago the astronomers
thought they knew where they could dis
cover a new star, and the great tele
scope of Terkea observatory was used.
They turned tho lens of this ponderous
telescope upon the fro ntler of the uni
verse .and caught a faint glimpse of the
new planet.
And w hen I take this old book I look
beyond wealth and p leasure and fame
and get a glimpse of heaven Itself. I
shall be satisfied when I gave on His
likeness.
"Be ready to give an answer to every
one that asketh thee; a reason for the
hope that Is wltnin thee."
Tou take the opinion of a man on a
subject when he has s pent a lifetime
in studying this subject. Tou take an
opinion on law from a lawyer and not
from a blacksmith. Pou go to a doctor
for advice on medicine.
If I can do this I ought to take what
God says, rather than what some p
reacher or some blatant, whisky-soaked
skeptlo says. When you d le you send
for the p reacher and not some drunken
skeptlo.
Doa't Bo la Doabt Aboat Eternity.
"Be ready always to givs an answer
to everyone that seeketh three, a reason
for tho hope that is within thee."
Tou cannot tell by church membership.
Ths saddest day a. lot of people will ever
see will be the day when the trumpet of
Gabriel will sound and they will stand
before God and He will say, "Depart. I
never knew you." Although your name
Is on ths record.
Yoa Trast M, Way Not Gedf
There are soma fellows who think they
are on the way to hell when they are so
closs to heaven they can almost hear the
angels sing. And there are some who
think they are going to heaven who are
so near to bell they can almost smell the
sulphur fumes.
In business you readily take the word
of a man who has had years of experi
ence. Some years ago an Insurance agent
wrote to me that my premium must bo
paid by a certain date. I wrote him and
asked him to pay It and leave the receipt
for mo to take up whtn I cams back. He
wrote me that he had done so.
When I appeared to take up the receipt,
they said: "Well, you must have had
faith in your friend considering ho
much depended on it."
I said: "Certainly I had faith In him.
He wrote me that he had paid it and I
never worried or thought anything more
about It."
if I had faith in tha word of an insur
ance agent ought I not have faith )n the
word of God?
Twenty-nine years ago I deposited ray
ail, my manhood and everything that I
owned, to Jesus Christ, the Son of God,
and I'vs won.
And you can't tell by God's dealings
with you, can you? No; you certainly
cannot.
I cannot understand it now, but when
God has taken the smoky film from my
eyes I shall know It all. "These things
are written that ye might belters that
Jesus is ths Christ."
Say I I didn't pray? "Save me at last
for Jesus' oaks." I'm saved now and I've
made no provision for a relapse.
Ppurgeon said he called on a little girl
who hud been ill for months. Bhe looked
up and said: "Mr. Ppurgeon. I wonder
why It la that God let" me suffer so."
And he said, "Honey, I've wondered the
same thing. Tou are going to he with
God and I wish you would ask Jesus
Christ why He let you stay and suffer."
nible Record It All.
Don't let any Infidel ridicule you out of
your faith. That's Just what Bob Inger
soll tried to do. Ills lectures were 96 per
cent ridicule; he couldn't meet the'truth,
and so he ridiculed.
Old Boh Tngensoll dwells so much on
,n mistake of Moses. Great sticks! God
told us sll about tho mistake made b
men In those days In the Hlble. He with
held nothing from us.
God tells us that Noah sot a skats on
when he got out of the ark and that eld
Solomon had 4X more wives than old
Brlgham Toung.
The Bible tel us that David Committed
adultery with Bathsheba and she becam
the mother of Solomon. It tells us that
Peter denied his Ixird:lt tells us that An
anias and Sapphire, lied and held back
their possessions.
The Bible tells us that Judas betrayed
Jesus. The Blhle doesn't try to rover the
mistakes of anybody.
God doesn't have to make apologies for
the mistakes of Moses. I don't defend
them; God doesn t defend them. I don't
have to stand here and apologise for my
belief. I'll flsht for Jesus Christ and the
Christian religion,
Tou take a life Insurance agent'a word
when he tells you that If you Insure, and
die. yourf loks will get so much. Well,
If you will take the word of a life In
surance agent, won't you take the word
of God?
Chrlsa wss offered as a sacrifice, and
God planned the whole business, and It
doesn't make a bit of difference what you
think about the truth or merlta of the
plan it la true, every word of It.
Rellgon has done three things for me
and it will do these three things for every
man, woman and child here this after

It has made me a better man.
It has made me more useful,
I never was so happy In my life as I
am now, serving Ood with every fiber
there Is In my body. I know and my
friends know that I am a better man than
I was when I was living In sin.
And I know that I am of more account
standing here pouring out my life In
preaching the blessed Oospel that I ever
could have been If ths lore of Jesus
Christ had not entered my heart
Don't Marry Drlaklasi Man.
The silent testimony within a man's
breast that Is what keeps alive the hope,
I heard of a man In IiOndon who was
prominent in business, but who drank.
He was engaged and his father heard
of It.
The father went to ths parents of the
girl and asked them to help break up
tho engngement. The young lady declared
she loved the young man and vlceversa.
Hear me, girls; when a young man asks
you to marry him. Inform him that you
are not running a whisky cure establish
ment. If he doesn't think enough of you
to quit boozing before he mnrrlei you,
you can bet your life he won't after
ward. That's one reason why we have so many
llttlo whip-poor-will widows around the
country; they married a drinking man.
Now they have to go out and work to
earn enough to support the offsprings he
left. . '
They were married. Two children were
born to the union. Ths husband and
father continued to drink. He lost his

Keep Away From Drugs
LAXATIVES and cathartics, used continuously, only ac
centuate the condition they are meant to cure.
Nujol, a pure, white mineral oil, is the recognized common-sense
remedy for constipation. It conforms to tho
requirements of the well-known Lane treatment.
Nujol is odorless and tasteless, absolutely neutral, and is not
digested or absorbed into the system. It acts merely as a
mechanical lubricant.
Nujol is not a drug. Its use will not give quick, temporary
relief. But Nujol is a genuine remedy in that it relieves
constipation in trie most natural way by lubricating the lin
ing of the intestines, softening the intestinal contents, and
thus promoting healthy and normal bowel activity.
