This is the title of the greatest re- liglous movement America has ever witnessed; and there is nothing mys- | tifying about it when one understands | that it means more for the welfare of men than any religious movement ever before inaugurated. This movement mnot only concerns the future welfare of souls but the well-being of men in this worid. It is not a get something for nothing scheme, but a reciprocal movement which commits the church to the in- terests of the working classes and in- vites men to the support of the church, Fred B. Smith, the mental dynamo who concelved of this far-reaching movement which s now active in 76 citles and 1,800 smaller communities, has this to say of it: “It's suiclde, if we don’t go the limit tfis time on soclal betterment and the industrial situation. If the churches don't prove their sincerity and fear- lessness on industrial wrongs this time the door will never again be open to | them. It is folly, sulcidal foily, hold back. If necessary, we'll go out into the middle of the street to preach, 1 realize that there's a price to pa; The gospel preached to the band of thirty who were trained to direct this | great movement was that justice and piety must go hand in hand, prayer for redemption and the oppres- sion of the working classes by pro- fessed Christians is an insult to Ged and man. There is heart as well as energy in the work and surprising results are reported from Western towns where campaigns have been carried through. They report that “in each of the towns | a change has been wrought in the per- sonal lifé of one and another—gains in unselfishness, in seriousness of pur- nose, in direction of effart. ington Gladden characterizes the meet- ings as ‘Tight and power, no noise.' " There was never a religious move- ment just like it—in breadth of labor and purpose, in resolute good Wil and a daring assault upon the wrongs which make of professional piety a mockery. The object is not to “bleed” men, but to through sympathy and co- smeration convince them that there is tetterment and consolation in religion which is worth all it costs.

The | disarmament of the nations is com- {ing upon the plane so common in civ- living_together in peace without weapons. The street life of a great city like Paris, or Lor.- don, or New York, is a good exampie of what disarmament really means— men of all nations mix together taere in the enjoyment of life under whole- some laws and an . honorable goveru- ment. There doesn't appear to be any- thing imaginary or visionary about the mingling in peace and joy of the rep- regentatives of all nations under one flag. Why should there be about there being the same fellgw feeling, goud order and honorable conduct among nations? The hearts of men will sce this matter right some day.

Do shoes have character? Of course they do, and show character, top. Of late I have been wondering how there could be so much differende in style and appearance of feet aud ‘thelr outfit. Now that skifts are worn so much shorter than for many vears, there is a greater chance to notice feet and footgear, and a very attractive display they make. There goes a young miss down the street. Impradent she may be, but she shows a very dainty foot, daintiiy clad in a russet low shoe with dapper heel, though the temperature would seem to call for something warmer. How she skims aiong over the ground! Next comes an older woman, show- ing an equally trim foot, well attired in_caretully boot of black. They both show plainly that they take carc- ful heed to the feet, and the light- springing step tells of good health, energy and cheerfuiness, Buch a one usually greets us with a bright smile and cheery word which leaves an jm- pression of overflowing vitality, Next a vouthful couple pass dovn the street together. The lady’s foot, well clad, keeps step with her comi- panion’s mare vigorous gait. His foot is no less trimly attired in a low shoe, and the trousers so ostentatiously turned babk at the ankle display drop- stitch stockings, though it be a erisp, cold day in December. Should trey be reminded of any need of warmer foot covering, they declare themseives perfectly comfortable, while an elderly friend of mine mutters, “Pride wiil keep them warm.” Evyidently they are too much engrossed in each other to notice any possible discomfort of any sort. A very different foot is the next to be noticed. Poorly shod and heavily placed on the pavement, each step tells of weariness and discouragement, of depression and sadness. The poor woman does not realize how much of overwork s revealed in that -down- trodden heel and misshapen shoc. Cheerful she may try to be, but the shoe tells its own story. The best walkers I ever knew had broad feet, sure, confident and well placed step, and thelr dispositions were apparently in correspondence, unruf- fled by the small annoyances of life. A substantial, sensible view they tahe of life Mself, and cast aside all smali worrles ag trifies unworthy of notice. Faithful friends, they prove to be, and in them we find comfort and sympathy in_time of need. How that sturdy teamster plods along in his high rubber boots! A strong man, he troubles himself very little, 1 fancy, concerning what does not apply to his own comfort and that of those dependent upon him. A kind husband and father, he is indulgent and generous, ambitious, no doubt, for the "children, and ocontsibuting his share to the world's happiness and The laborer, how much he shows of character by his feet. Heav- fly clad, they drag slowly along, and plainly tell of the siuggish, unintelli- gent mind; he ia the man who drops the shovel with its comtents at sound of the clock and whistle, regardiess of aught else than his own ease. Such as he {5 frequently heard grumbiing sbout those In aptherity over him, and Gnding fault with all existing conditions. Yet even such a one will not live out half his days. The rule of life, according to naturalists is that God's creatures live five times the length of days required for them to come to maturity; and this is why an elephant lives to be a hundred and a condor to be 140. Man gets his complete physical development at 30, and hence it_is claimed he should live to be 130. Metschinkoff says the ha- man race dies from self-abuse—ihot there is no such thing as a natural death—because of man's excesses. Un- conscious of our own intemperance, how we can criticise the other fellow for his. Intemperance lands the whole human race in the grave before its time. Dailia fanciers are somewhat sur- prised to find the collavette dshMas holding first place in the forelgn cat- gues. One Scotch firm puts out a Royal Set of six for 1912 under the names of Baimoral, Holyrood, King George, Prince Charles, Queen bess and Queen Mary. It ig believed taat great possibilities lle hidden in this variety, and the British hybridizers claim the new British varieties are far in advance of the original conti- nental introductions. There are now 38 varieties of the collarettes. There are elght new cactns dahlias; but no new varieties of the decorative, show and fancy, pompons or peony dahllas were brought out. The season of 1511 was & severe one for dahlia growers, and the experience in all countries was far from being satisfactory, SUNDAY MORNING TALK The Fact and the Folly of Prejudice, In speaking of prejudice one names an inveterate foe of human weifare. The unreasoning antipathies that men have enterteined have kept them from Teaching many & fair goal. The dust raised by prejudice has blinded their eyes {o many & splendid opportunity Intellectus] stybbornness has been re- sponsible for moyre defeats than have hostile armies or the as- elemental forees. Nearly every human advance has been made in the face of preconceived notions and naryow assumptions that threatened to blogk the whole enter- prise. Roger Bacon, for instance, upon whose mind, first of Englishmen, the modern sclentific temper had dawned, might have set his countrymen ahead at least a half century through his dis- coverles in chemistry and physics had they not suspected him of dealings with the devil and thrust him forthwith into a dungeon cell. When Arkwright invented his spinning frame the irate mill hands of Lancashire, convinced that he was golng to ruin’ the textile industry, drove him hotfoot for his life out of the country. And one need mot speak of the ridicule and abuse heaped upon Gallleo and George Stephenson and Robert Fulton and Charles Dar- win and scores of other ploneers who have cut across the traditions of their times and lifted us to new levels of experience. Prejudice has been the greatest obstacle with which such as these have had to deal. One should not berate these old-time conservatives too harshly for we our- selveg are probably wrapped in preju- dices as unreasoning in their way as Let me zard you the guesy thai you my resder, have a | stock o aniipathies that are very infl your judgments of men a also Very illogical if the trouble of & close ook at them It js mot till you try it on that 3 realize with what Adifficulty prejudi are overcome. They are often prac tically parts of the mental constitution and one can shed them about as easily as he can jump out of his skin. Would you get rid of a prejudice? “Manage it says a discerning writer, “as you would a pulllng horse; tickle it, as you would a trout; treat it as you would the most headstrong thing in the world, and the readiest to take alarm, the likeliest to slip through vour fin- gers the moment you think you have ot it safe, and are just about to make an end of it.” Although a confessedly difficulty thing 1o manage, the most unreasoming bias { SHOES AND THEIR CHARACTER - and $16.75 often be found planning and toling to coufifl SY R“P make sure that his children shall be freed from such drudgery as has becu — his lot in life, and often with his et ) ¢ heavy boots he lays aside his grum- bling, and hecomes .a pleasant neigh- bor and thrifty householder.

Once I saw a tell-tale pair of shoes on a child's fest, The little girl seem- ed happy enough, at play on a flight of steps’ leading up to her neighbor's house.

That any mother coul be so negligent seemed impossioie, but so it was.
