At a time when many panaceas are being ad- vanced . for the great unrest abroad in the world and when bodies of men are fighting against other bodies of men, when selfishness, avarice, greed of gold,- disregard’ for constitutional laws and author- jty, suspiciousness of one man.toward his fellow- man;and when the doctrine of force is advocated toward-the radical, it is profitable to pause and beed the advice given by those who from week to week and day to day not only preach the golden yule but honestly strive to live it. , Speaking from the text “Give and it shall be given unto you, good- measure, pressed down ‘and shaken together and running over, shall men give into your bosom,” the Rev. George Backhurst, rector of St. Bartholomew Episcopal church said last Sun- dsay, “When nobody any longer judges or condemns bis neighbor and when everybody gives and forgives, . then we. will be living in the beginning of the millenium.” ~ ] “This ideal state is coming, but is coming in very homely simple ways, not by any oratorical resolu- tion passed in the parliament of man, not by right of mobs nor strength of arms. Christ tells how the millenium will begin—if we want to put a stop to unkind and. unjust judging we must simply. stop that sort of judging ourselves—if. we. would. not have others condemn us we must not condemn them. If we want to bring a revival of the spirit.of for- giveness -we must ourselves be forgiving and if we desire a better distribution of the ‘good things of life and want other people to give us' better measure. we must begin that ourselves; we must ourselves set the standard of good measure, that is, as we .do so will others do.to us. The millenium begins at home. ‘That is very plain, slow and homely, but it is the Christian way and the divine way into the promised land. “Phere can be no regeneration of society with- out regeneration of the individual. There can be no human brotherhood except among a company of brothers, and brotherly love does not come by passing laws. Plain thinking and clear headed men are doubting whether the millenium _ is any more likely to come along the path of tyranny of labor than along the path of tyranny of capital. «It was found a good while ago when' experiments were being tried in' ecclesiastical government that ‘my lords the brethren’ were even harder ‘masterd than ‘my lords the bishops.’ True socialism is not at fault, for true socialism is simply applied chris- tianity. It is an endeavor to set the conditions of human life upon a' distinctly Christian basis, * There is only one way to bring in the socialistic state, and that is not the way of tyranny, but the way which Christ taught. : ) “You cannot stone men . into fraternal love. Brotherhood? Yes, all:good men standing together for the best interests of all. - Yes, but manhood first. Personal liberty first. The ideal brotherhood is not a labor union of machines but a labor union of honest independent, men. No—true socialism means honest and genuine and loving brotherhood, and has no use for brickbats; encouraging the lib- erty of all men and paying no court to tyranny. Give and it shall be given unto you must be the formula .of its faith and. its hope.. ‘And good meas- ure pressed down and shaken together and ruo- ning over’ shall be its sure reward. “It therefore depends not upon princes, parlia- ments, saints, nor socialists, but upon each of us as individuals when the millenium comes. = Judge not and unkind comments will soon be unheard .of by you, condemn not.and notice the new tolerance appear, forgive and you will be forgiven. Give and it shall be given unto you. Begin, you; read Luke 6:37-38.” = W Way '|s Bettar. A bluff, hearty old bachelor friend of the family, trying to get on terms with the son of the house, asked' him, “Have you practiced any fancy meth- ods of skating, sonny?” “No,” sald sonny, “I can skate only two ways as yet” “Ah, and which are they?’ “Standing up' and sitting down,” sald sonny. ; BAD BREATH Dr, Edwards’ Olive Tgblets, the substitute for calomel, act gently on the bowels and positively 'do "the!work. quick relief i ? taking them.
