TOO STRONG TO BE IGNORED. The 40,000,000 people living in pro- hibition states and prohibition coun- ties and towns think that the subject of protection for them is of import- ance enough ‘to be dered in_ the forthcoming message of the president. They want the government to stand with the people, not against them, up- »m such an important subject as th They allege “There is no more press- ing amepdment needed to the inter- { state commerce law than the provis- fon protecting and preventing further interference with prohibitory legisia- tion.

It is easy to divine the difference between doing a good act from principle or from a desire | to annul an offence. Take care of your livig and you dying will take care of itself. This is sound doctrine. Do mnot be idly noping that you may be prepared to die when what you really need is to be prepared to live. The ability to live right leaves no doubt that one is sure to be prepared to die right. 1 hav known persons who seemed to have a warm heart for the Lord and a cold heart for their fellowmen. What must seem to be ridiculous to the | Lord appesirs to be all right to them. If the Lord’s heart is for His crea- tures, even to the least of them, mai hearf, to be in harmony with the ine, must be for God's creatures, too. Harmony is the keystone in the arch of salvation; “but thousands of souls live and die without waking up to this simple fact. The Golden Rule represents the harmonizing power of Good. The present joy the joy to be cultivated, for anticipated joys are vague and uncertain. I expect the breach of promise suit was invented to_disclose what fools we mortals be! Recently, through this source, the letters of a coliege Dro- fessor have brought mortification to him ‘and his friends. We feel that he should have known better, but when Dan Cupid has a victi!i hypnotized he is no longer himself.

It is, but the employer cannot realize a surplus if he does not have the earnest, honest co-operation of his help.

Lady’s (Written for The Bulletin.) I have recently been placed where I have seen the dismantling and de- struction of a residence to make room for a more modern structure. A feel- ing of dismay and sadness came with the first blows aimed at the old home. There the housa stood, a substantial building in good condition, capable of furnishing a comfortable home to some one for many years to come as it had done for two generations least in the past. Had it been out of repair, the sacrilege would have ap- peared less, but it was not, and to me a shriek of despair seemed to come with each timber or section torn from its framéwork. As the dismantled interior was laid bare to the curious gaze of the passer- by, one felt that the privacy of the home was invaded, and old associa- tions and memories roughly disturb- ed. From girihood 1 had known the house and its inmates. There had lived and died a father and mother and children. There had mingled the lives of a large household, now scat- tered, if living. A schoolmate of mine was a daugh- ter in the household, and the memory of her is still a pleasure to me; her ready sympathy and kindly word were always extended when occasion demanded. Included in the family were others, not of the family name, for a wife's devotion filled the house with occu- pants when the husband’s health fail- ed so that he could no longer be the ‘bread-winner for his loved ones. How much that unselfish devotion accom- piished outsiders can never measure, but that mother's children had reason “to rise up and call her biessed.” How little we realize the uncomplaining self-sacrifice of many such women in our midst. Not till they lay thelr burden down do we rightly estimate their value, but the lives most closely connected with them cannot fall to be broadened and sweetened by their in- fluence. Could the old house speak, how much it might tell of the helpless- ness of infancy, the childhood, and the frolic of youth. How much more might it relate of the loves and marriages which its walls_have sheltered. experiences of joy and SOrrow, pros- perity and adversity, life and death are interwoven in the existence of its walls. What wonder that a cry of dismay come from them as the blows of destruction smote them on ail sides! During one period of many years the pastor of one of our churches was located there. Think of the words of instruction, advice and sympathy that have gone forth from that abode. Many an one has gone there with weakne: 2d and comforted, more ready to bat- { tie with the problem of life and bet- ter fijted to bear its burdens. MuBh of the house was carried away entire to be used elsewhera, I suppose. ~ One might almost imagine that those windows would reflect in any structure the view they have so long looked upon.

They proved to be brick, faced with plaster. The only sham, T am sure, in the substan- tial old building, ahd this thought came to me in connection with it: How much like life this is! How many a reputation, seemingly sound has at last revealed itself under force of adversity to be something of less ¢alue carefully concealed from pub lic knowledge! Yet we do not lose| our belief in the integrity of the old manse. One defect cannot overbal- ance so many virtues, and credit is always due to one who condeals his weakness and shows only his best to the world. On this old site is to be placad a church, they tell us, which will be an ornament to the street and a means of usefulness to many. The spirit of the old assoelutions will linger ahout the place, and the influence for good will ‘continue in much increased force. Could those whose lives have min- gled in the history of the dwelling have their choice In selecting their successors, nothing could possibly be more pleasing to them than to feel that their home was to be replaced by a church, whose office it will be to extend to so many the ministrations of all thesz years. From the pulpit will come words of counsel and in- struction which will serve to spread the gospel of peace and good will Before the altar vows will be pledged joining lives in loving union. May they never fail to prove a blessing to | each other and those coming after them! There will be consecrated to God’s service the child, brought by de- voted parents to De ined in w dow’s ways. Loying hands will place there the cherished dead for a last greeting from mourning friends. The services of a church are for all occasions, times of sorrow. times of mirth, and-the social lifz of the com- munity centers more and more now- a-days around the,activities of church work. From the various organizatlons of the church ald comes to so many who need it. Instruction for the young is given in the Sunday school, mission studies compel the interest to axtend to- far-off regions still outside the reach of Christianity. Clothing and the necessities of life to those in poverty and dainties for the suffering i are all so freely supplied by the ef- | forts of willing church-workers. So the world bacomes more closely drawn | to common center as the 1x1!x9r-i hood of God and the brotherhood of | man is more broadly understood and preached.

One of the first evidences of broadness is to be able to tolerate the other man's opinions. Some weak mortals respect the other fellow’s opinions if he has money; but if he is not well financed he doesn’t consider them worth a sou marquee. It does not appear to be natural to measure things accord- ing to merit, for there is no merit to anything heterodox, or that confronts our prejudices. There can only merit where there is agreement, un- Jess it be in the courts. The judicial mind is supposed to be able to rec- ognize merit under any light known.
