The sinless man did not exist in ancient times, nor is lie to be found now. There are a few people who have persuaded themselves into t belief that they cannot sin, that temptation and all evil impulses have been banished from their lives forever. But they are .deceiving themselves. The only man who cannot and doe? not sin is the dead one. Soiiie consolation for those whose purpose it is to live right, and yet find much discourage ment in persistent evil tendencies, may be found in studying the careers of the patriarchs of the Old Testament. Few of their lives were un spotted, but the God of those times was not un merciful to them, and the same God still reigns in the heavens. x Even Abrani, one of the greatest figures in Biblical history, had a fault or two. Yet his influence can never be measured, for he became the Friend of God and the Father of the Faith ful, in xthe course of his extraordinary life, Which intimately touched six important Oriental peoples. He was the son of an idolater, brought up among idolaters, and was 75 years old when he entered Canaan and took to it the worship of the true God, and sowed the seed of the church Df today. One instance in Abram's life will suffice. He married a beautiful and attractive woman named Sarai,' When a famine drove the couple down Into Egypt, Abram passed his wife off as his sister, fearing that if their true relationship be came known the king would make a widow of the lovely woman. The princes of old time were much like their present day successors in their proclivities. In spite of Abram's lying precaution, Sarai went to live in the king's Souse according to an immoral custom that stilt exists among a number of unenlightened tribes. If Abram protested we know it not, but the record is plain that he accepted the .monarch's gifts and waxed rich. It was a cunning and financially profitable dissimulation he was guilty of, and might have continued in definitely but for an accidental revelation of the truth. Then Abrani, his wife, and the flocks, herds and tents he had accumulated in Egypt, made off. Abram's greatest disappointment w's that Sarai was barren, so he married a bondwoman, who became the mother of Ishmael. Abram accepted the child as his heir, but we are told the Lord appeared to him and announced that Sarai -would bear his heir. Abram fell on his face to hide his laughter, because he was a hundred, and his wife ninety years of age. But the son came as Godhad said, and was called Isaac; the names of the parents were changed to Abraham and Sarah, and Abraham lived seventy-five years longer and kept 'the faith. Things as strange happen now when men put their trust in God and follow his com mandments. The man who does his level best every day, meets his duties cheerfully, fights his evil passions and desires, and offers pure devotion to the everliving God, wins that which the hurrying multitude seeks in vain happiness. niwell's statements. But if Scranton brew eries and saloons are running wide open, the selection of a Scranton liquor dealer as a Palmer delegate requires more than a blanket denial if the dry doubts are to be dissipated and the attorney general to be cleared. Com ing after his selection for manager of his cam paign of the counsel for alleged income tax dodgers, the Bonniwelf charges throw a shadow o'er his escutcheon. Our Heroes Under Foreign Sod. Marshal Petain of France, speaking of and to our dead in the military cemeteries of his country, said on Memorial Day: They are- not resting as strangers in a strange land, soldiers of liberty sent overseas at a moment when the fate of the world was at stake and toward whom the heart of France turns gratefully today. These tombs will be forever watched over with the same pious care as that which our country gives her own children. Brothers in arms, sharers of one common glory, one common sacrifice, I salute you as heroes whose young days found here the end of their work. In acclaiming you I voice the sentiments of my whole country, victorious and forever grateful. Touching and sincere words, worthy of the occasion. .We trust they floated upward to those of whom they were spoken. A Line 0' Type or Two t Hew to th LI, let tht sulss tall whtra thsjr An Ancient Informal Affair. War had decimated the tribe of Benjamin until but six hundred bachelors survived, when the Elders of Israel sent them to the Shiloh dance. As a consequence six hundred squalling Shiloh girls were carried off by as many Benja minite bachelors who had stolen secretly upon them. "My dear," said one of the strenuous Benja minites to his stuggling bride, "it was quite an informal social gathering." "Yes," she replied, "and it was certainly a shrieking success." And so it must have been,' for the tribe grew from 600 warriors at that time to 380,000 in the ime of Jehoshaphat. In -other years candidates for presidential nominations managed to be in their humble homes, surrounded by their families and friendly neighbors, when the conventions were balloting; with a photographer and his plates all ready to rush to the spot, if the right news came; and, we dare say, a neat little address for the home folks all thought out. Those were the simple, unaffected days what? Richard La Gallienne attributes the letters of approval, "O. K." to a bit of humor on the part of a business man who wrote "Orl Kor rect" on documents which- had to pass his desk. This must be orl rong, for a man who is fessor of comDarative rjhiloloev and he said that always and absolutely right gives its derivation to an Indian word, "okch." THREE GIRLS. Take a Walk. "Walking," says he NewYork Mail, "should be as purposeful as, living. The most beneficial walking is that intended to get you some where." In other words, do not walk merely for the sake. of walking. We dissent. Walking is worth while fprJt$elf alone', and enjoyable in itself. With a purpose much of its charm is lost. It then becomes mere effort for transpor tation. But if the purpose be directly related to the effort then walking becomes most beneficial. To walk and watch for birds, or to study trees and lawrts, or to a.it notice of improve ments, or to absorb the beauty of a river or a hill or a landscape, and at the same time enjoy open air and deep breathing, that is walking right into mental and physical well-being. Ta walk so many blocks or miles a day gives wholesome exercise Pa the entire muscu lar system, but with no conscious purpose to enjoy other things there ensues no mental in yigoration. It is like "taking exercise" in a bed room, and soon becomes deadly dull and fatiguing. Digging an unnecessary hole in the ground would be better. Three schoolgirls pass this way each day: Two of them go in the fluttery way Of girls, with all that girlhood buys; ' But one goes with a dream in her eyes. Two of them have the eyes of girls Whose hair is learning scorn of curls, But the eyes of one are like wide doors Opening out on misted shores. And they will go as they go today On to the end of life's short way; Two will have what living. . buys, x And one will have the dream in her eyes. Two will die as many must, And fitly dust will welcome dust; But dust has nothing to do with one She dies as soon as her dream is done. Century Magazine. Scranton Has Gone Wet. Scranton's wetness has become a democratic factional issue. Judge Bonniwell .of Phil adelphia, the McAdoo leader in Pennsylvania, testifying before the senate committee investi gating campaign expenditures, said the Palmer people were appealing to every lawbreaker in the state by winking at violations of the pro hibition law. He declared 'that in Scranton, tinder a district federal attorney who is Attor ney General Palmer's law partner, is "as wet fca the Atlantic ocean," that breweries there ''are running wide open- in infamous violation W ' law," and that saloons -"sell whisky openly and J or 4 per cent beer." As a collateral fact having a certain significance, he added that one Casey, a rich liquor dealer in Scranton, is a dis trict Palmer delegate, and C A. Fagin of Pitts burgh, counsel for brewers and distillers, is ne of the attorney general's delegates at large. Evidently Governor Cox of Ohio is not to have a' clear field for wet favor at San Fran cisco, Gencfa ZilmQ, flatly Ueoied Judge Bon- The Religion of the New Day. It is evident also that the religion for the new day will be dynamic rather than static. Too much of what has passed for religion has been a cold storage of beliefs and a repository of formulas. "The reason I don't like religion, padre," said the soldier, "is that it's such a selfish thing." Religion as an insurance policy did not make much appeal to the soldier who stood ready to make heroic sacrifice., , But religion as an active consecrating force among men won his supreme allegiance. The searching ordeal of war has placed upon religion the obligation to be more than a con ventional way, to rear one's children, to be born, to be married and to die. It is a matter of sacrifice more than subscription, a power more than a propriety.' It is a spirit not merely to be enjoyed as a safeguard, but to be applied in work and worship alike. When the great Italian patriot, Mazzini, heard a man called good, he said." "How can you call that man good? Whom has he helped?" This is the test of religion in the new day. Minneapolis Journal. Discontent. Discontent is want of self-reliancf, it is in firmity of will. Regret calamities if you can thereby help the sufferer, if not, attend jour own work and already the evil begins to be re paired. We come to them who weep foolishly and sit down and cry for company, instead of imparting to them truth and health in rough electric shocks, putting them once more in com munication with the soul. The secret of for tune is joy in our hands. Welcome evermore to gods and men is the self-helping man. For him all doors are flung wide. Our love goes out to him and embraces him because he did not need it. "To the persevering mortal," said Zoroaster, "the blessed immortals are swift." Ralph Waldo Emerson. GOING WEST.

DO you remember the grandoldays when people got real het up over a presidential cam paign? They had burning issues in those days, or at least they seemed to be burning. Actually they were not as important as the burning issue of this campaign, which is the getting rid of the Wilson administration, lock, stock, and barrel; but you could not get up a torchlight parade for that. HO! HUM! Sir: Speaking of the yawnjngs of the Grand Canyon and the reasons therefor, do you remem ber the old story of Talleyrand and the Russian ambassador? Driving with the representative of his imperial majesty, Talleyrand was vainly attempting to shorten the ambassador's long and tedious discourse, when, on passing a sentry box, the sentrty, after saluting, gave vent to a most prodigious yawn. "Hush! Hush!" whispered Talleyrand to his carriage companion. "We are overheard." R. X. A PICTURE in a botany book shows scalpels made from old razor-blades, and Nate reports that he, saw a sign painter using them to scrape old lettering from glass. In fact, they seem to be better for a thousand other purposes than shaving. Just Eleven Miles. Sir: A short time ago I wrote that as you know a little of everything and sometimes more, I wished you to tell me how far from a given standpoint it is to the horizon the place where the sky and water or land apparently meet. As you have not seen fit to reply, I find that you yourself are far from knowing everything and a little more. It was a foolish question for me to ask. How should you know? You've never been at the horizon. M. D. B. Our correspondent Is mistaken. "We once spent a summer there. , THE Phi Kappa Psi fraternity is to convene in Minneapolis next month, and for its benefit one of the hotels offers these rates: "Single room. $4: room for two, $4 each; man and wife, $4.50." Thus, by a judicious exchange of part ners, the h. c. 1. may be cleverly cut down. Thirdly? Sir: I'll bet you a ten dollar dog (I know a college professor who has a dog of which he thinks more than he does of his family, and the family think more of the dog than they do of him) against a doughnut that the fingernail com parison that people are discovering goes way back into the folklore of probably every civi lized country. "The moon is just like a finger nail paring" is one of the earliest remarks that I remember to have heard from the lips of my grandmother, and I suppose she got it from her grandmother, and so back. Get the Folklore Society interested; they will run it down for you. But I am more interested in the following: We have-words for publications that. appear, and things that happen" once a year, twice a year, every two years, every three months, but what is the proper designation for a periodical that appears every four months? I asked the pro there was such a word, but he could not give it fto me at once. "Give me time, give me time," he wailed. That was two years ago. These here Latin sharks all say, "Sure there is such a word," but they do not have It at their command, and they have none of them run it down and skinned it and sent the pelt to me. On the other hand, a gentleman who does not come nearer to ety mology than the last three syllables of an thropology said at once, "There is no such word." I offer twelve bottles of C. D.'s booze for the correct answer. W. F. Y. INFORMATION for the anxious: The pub lishers of The Memoirs 6f William Hickey send word that the third volume is not yet published.

Like a ladder from here to the ultimate star They stretch for my stride, though I'm anchored and bound To the earth, I am tied like a thrall to the ground. Should Doctors Lie? Is there really any demand on the part of ailing people that the doctor shall write out an exact diagnosis and prognosis in each case and give it to them? Do sick people really wish to be told the truth? Dr. H. Wilmott Orr, presi dent of the Nebraska State Medical association, says patients will be better satisfied if their doc tors follow that course and that they have a right to such information because they pay for it. Viewed in one light, this is an attack upon the sacred tradition that the American people like to be fooled, and with all respect to the au thority of the president of the Nebraska Medical association, an assertion that they really like to be fooled by their doctors may be made. What gives a person who never had anything serious the matter with him more deep and abiding sat isfaction than to tell a sympathetic listener that the doctor almost gave him up for dead? What helps a sick person who is really in danger more than full faith in the assurance of the familv doctor that he will certainly recover? Neither class, wants the truth. Either class, will cheer fully pay to be lied to, and, if other authorities are to be trusted, deception is a necessary part in the treatment of some ailing people.

One of the revelations of the draft was the difference in the prevalence of goiter in the different sections of the United States. The text books on medicine all speak vof "the re gions where' goiter Is prevalent." Some go farther and name Switzer land, Italy, France, Great Britain, Spain and Sweden as the countries where goiter abounds. Especially do they refer to certain cantons In Switzerland here goiter and the re lated conditions myxoedema and cretinism seem to be almost uni versal. There has been a tendency to think none of this applied to us. The draft showed us that Washington, D. C, the Pacific northwest and the states bordering the Great Lakes were our great goiter belts and that the south and southwest were almost free from the disease. If this in formation started a tide of health seekers to the favored regions I have not heard of it. Many thousand people annually pull up from their families and homes and move to the dry sunshine country of the south west in order to get over consump tion or to live indefinitely In spite of the disease. Perhaps some day people with goiter will migrate in the same way. But the Information as to the dis tribution of goiter now available Is very scanty. Perhaps the tides of migration will start up when other reports have established the relative freedom of certain sections at least more firmly than they now are, and when the information becomes gen eral. It may not come until the pub lic understands which forms of goifcr are very disabling, which tend to destroy life and which need not be given much thought. Per haps by that time we may know so much about the disease that the migration-cure and migration -preventive may never come into vogue. As an aid towards that end we have a study of the distribution of goiter in West Virginia by Mayo Tolman. In 1918 60 per cent of the physicians of that state re sponded to a request from the state board of health that they report their cases of goiter. The report showed tha tithe prevalence of the disease was very uneven. It was most abundant along the streams. The sections underlaid by coal strata had most of it. Those underlaid with limestone had very little. He suggests as a line of investiga tion by scientists that the vapors arising from waters and the fogs from the ground in what may be termed goiter regions be examined spectroscoplcally. Examinations of the soil In different sections of the country have' shown that in places seme radium is emanated. Tolman's thought is that in these goiter re gions the spectroscope might show some causative chemical In the vapors. It has been proven that very small amounts of iodine in air vapors may prevent the disease. If this is true we see in It some founda tion for the hope expressed by Tolman.
