It has been a long time coming, but the attitude which Las been manifest- ‘¢d by Germany in the Frye note just ‘made public indicates that it has been moved by a regard for its obligations and that it is not desirous of causing @ break in the friendly relations exist- ing between the two countries. This new note indicates that- it is recognized in Berlin that America is not endeavoring by its protests and ~ demands to uphold or assist the cause ©f Germany’s enemy, but on the other hand that it has simply insisted upon its rights and that such is no more ‘than it should receive. The note, when it declares that orders have been issued to the German naval forces not to destroy American merchant- . men which have loaded conditional ~ contraband but to permit them to con- " tinue their voyage unhindered when it 5 is impossible to take them into port, means if it means anything that prop- er respect will be paid thereto by exer- clsing the right of search and deter- mining before any move is made to sink an American vessel that it has yiolated international law. _The tone of the note furnishes the basis for the belief that Berlin is pre- pared to recognize American rights * 1in other respects. That it has gathered from our stand that we are not to be bluffed or hoodwinked by excuses | which do not excuse, is to be inferred. ‘Germany’s action, however, is only an ‘aeknowledgment of the duty which this " country has been trying to make it e This country is being con- _ceded nothing but what it is entitled £9 2 E . MISCARRIAGE OF JUSTICE. Much criticlsm is beins expressed in New York over the outcome of the ‘murder trial of Mrs. Rosa Bellina, who charged with and admitted the of the man who had wronged :, because he would not provide for ‘her. It was like many other instances where a miscarriage of justice has been recognized because it was a case here a woman was on trial. That Mrs. Bellina was wronged by the man she shot was admitted, but instead of allowing the law to take its ~ course in such a matter, she exercised & custom which is in use in certain ctions of Europe for clearing her name. She possessed no right to com- mit murder, since provision is made under the law for taking care of just such cases, yet the verdict of acquit- | tal furnishes justification for the com- mission of such capital offenses, It was only a short time ago that country was aroused by the ac- a prison, took cut a prisoner sen- for life and hanged him to a It shocked the country to think ‘such a thing could be done and no one nished, and vet a New York jury declared that the taking of the into private hands and the com- n of murder is an act which is . be upheld.

This big blaze at a. where there was little firs Bghting apparatus and a most inadequate supply of ‘water for fire fighting® purposes. was started in a box of rubbish by ‘children playing with matches.

Conditiéris which areconducive to the kindling of serions. firss exist in ®every community, -and it is through a recognition of these dangers and the constant watch to abate them, that a valuable' service is'‘rendeéred. Where there is a laxity in this respect, where inflammable material is allowed to col- lect in boxes, closets and cellars, there is.the material which it requires only a discarded match, cigarette or clgar butt carelessly thrown aside to fur- nish the combiriation for disastrous results. Children and matches, like mice and matches, form a dangerous union, but there are also many other opporturiities for preventing fires Wwhich need to be kept constantly in mind and in comparison with forelgn countries the people of this country have much to learn.

As Bishop Hare declares: “Right is might, and ever was and ever shall be so!" “How short our happy days appear,” wrote Jean Ingelow, “how long the " -Another trite saying is: “Time hangs heavily on the hands of an idle man.” Idleness and disease and idleness and sorrow are more closely allieg than we think. The price of health and success and pleasure is-ac- tivity. Keeping busy is just keeping in accord with nature, which is never idle. “Get a move on!” means more than mere physical exercise. ~The mind which goes hand in hand with purpose, like time, flies. The hours are short when zeal inspires effort and both light and love illumine our way. ‘Where sorrow dwells the air is heavy and existence becomes oppressive. It may be true that a man may “see far- ther through a tear than through a telescope,” but he rarely admires the view, though by it he may be greatly benefited. Man hath the -power to break away from sorrow for hath not the Great Physiclan assured him “Earth has no sorrow heaven cannot heal” The sorrowful day canmot be escaped, but the lesson of it may finally increase our joy and make life the sweeter, The warld does not highly prize its most precious treasures, and some of them it does not recognize. Everything old seems to be treasured by someone, somewhere, but old mothers, and they are left to their sorrows and to God. Why should we not all be able to say with the poet: “T love old mothers— mothers with white hair, and kindly eves, and lips grown softly sweet.” They have mothered generations, made homes, taught the divine precepts which laid broad foundations for the characters of those entrusted to them, and sung the songs of love and cour- age which hdve inspired men in all ages to do noble deeds. They pass be- fore us decrepit, with forms bent and faces furrowed and hands which have lost their shapeliness, but the love has not gone from their eyes or the hope from their hearts. We are taught to salute the flag, but we pass these mothers who have labored early and late to make happy homes and true citizens and good government without recognizing them as worthy our ven- eration and respect. Do not be too confiding. It is one of the worst of faults to be “telling others of matters which had Dbetter be kept to one’s self. Others do not care to learn of things which may fret them, or at some future time call them into court as a witness. It is a virtue to invoke.silence where mis- eries or secrets are concerned. We do not need make anyone a partner in our trials. There are many ocrises in life which it does us good to meet single-handed and overcome alone. Do not get to thinking you cannot bear the pressure. Many men have borne five times as much and found them- selves stronger because they did not yield to the temptation to weaken. It is good exercise to learn to hold the fort all by ‘one’s self. Fretting and fuming over trivialities has taken the starch out of many a life. Wasting time and energy just breeds trials, and inspires us to magnify them. Be sure it takes something to jar you and when you are jarred do not be alarmed by the vibrations, for they are natural and are not worth fussing about. Humility ought to be a conference meeting topic untH it is understood, Not many have a true conception of the humility they profess to be anx- ious to manifest in their lives. Hu- mility has been defined as the bond of all virtues, and it cannot be_ repre- sented by the grovelling worm because it includes grace and dignity, neither of which marks a worm's career. Pride changes angels into devils—humility made Jesus of Nazareth a King. It takes as much tact to stoop to rise as it does to speak the right word at the right moment. How do we know we are humble? Many a person has felt humble who was not conscious that humility is power, not weakness. It was St. Bernard who_pointed out, “It is no great thing to be humble when you are brought low, but to be humble when you are praised is a great and rare attalnment” The pietist who feels as insignificant as a grain of dust jsn't feeling humble—he is just feeling mean. If that were the true feeling of humility it could. not be said humility is the finest pearl in the Christian’s crown. It is up to us all to remember “No violent extremes endure; a sober mod- eration stands secure.” It is. not of such consequence to be the popular thing as it is to be the right thing. If you do not get into the rush of life you are less likely to become victims of its catastrophes. “Go slow and keep in the middle of the road.” i a homely chunk of wisdom which. brings its own reward. The wind which , whistles loudest i& soon blown out—the man Who talks the loudest seldom. makes the most Impressive argument. An extreme . in, any direction is nothing less than a mistake. As someone has written: ' “Extreme_heat kills; and so does extreme cold. Extreme love breeds satiety—8o does extreme hatred. - Too much rigor tempts chastity as does too much license. Extremes though contrary have like effects.” “Being in- toxicated with success isn't a drunk, but it Is ‘a true.way to disaster. The pendulum swings to one extreme only to swing to the other—it always has to have a regulator to be of any use. “Only sober moderation stands secure.” i When our attention is called to the fact that we are happlest when con- sclous ‘we have made others happy we cannot dispute this power of a little kindness to leaven the lives of many; but few of us do kindnesses as if such a reaction were probabis or possible.- It is still more popular to_strive to Increase our material holdings than to increase our hap- Ppiness. ‘We cannot seem to learn tl simple lesson that the joy of ac quirins. and holding is nothing com- pared with the joy of doing and bless- ing—doing. and. blessing for Love's sake instead of the flow of praise which infiates our vanity ang de- creases our real worth.. We are dull pupils, in_ the- -pursuance of tenets which “elevate .the soul. Too many of us are willing to grovel rathér than to.climb.

Many a man who thinks he is broad- gauged is running on a single rail sys- tem and doesn't know it. The fact is the broadminded, well balanced man is so rare that when we read of him we regard him either as an impossi- bility or a superman. We are not ac- customed to the man whose measure of men and things is for the welfare of all instead of for the growth and gain of me and mine. No people seem to have the ability te recognize or appreciate such a man until he is dead. Character is recognized by all scholars as being superior to intellect. Lincoln's character—his devoutness, love of jus- tice and simplicity—makes him loom above all his countrymen as the greAt- est American. Narrcwness is express- ed by selffshness and it is thinner than a safety razor blade in all the affairs of men. Some people think breadth is shown by giving the church five dol- lars while ropblng their fellowman of ten. Sunday Morning Talk STARS INVISIBLE BY DAY. For age is opportunity. no less Than youth itself, though in another dress, And as the away The sky by da: evening twilight - fades filled with stars invisible So sings Longfellow in memorable music. Age has sometimes been given a crabbed reputation by the poets, Qut the indictment is not justifiable. It has its own compensations, and. some ‘enjoyments that youth knows nothing of. No-one need be pitied who is grow- ing old in the right way. The gathering shadows are illumined by many kindly lights. It is one of the glories of night that it brings out the stars. If the sun shone all the time we should never see them. Prosperity doubtiess reveals some vir- tues, but it certainly conceals some others. Not always is a man at his best in the heyday of his fortunes. Sometimes he is at his best when his fortunes lie in wreck. There are good gifts of God that are possible only in times of trial and suffering and spe- cial need. It is a remarkable fact that great poetry has generally been the fruit of sorrow and suffering. The sky-blue optimism of most modern versifiers has resulted in work that, apart from its spirit of good cheer, is often little better than dogerel. The great poets bave known that life is tinged with tragedy and have themselves tasted the bitter cup. Homer and Milton were blind: Ovid and Dante were exiles; Hood and Heine were invalids; Ppe was a slave to liquor, and Coleridge to opium. Tennyson had known deep personal sorrows. Even Goethe, the selfcul- tured and self-centered, realized that out of suffering nobly borne came deep sympathles and wide vision when he said: ‘Who ne‘er his bread in sorrow ate. Who ne'er throughout the midnight hours ‘Watered his darksome tears, He knows ye not, ye Heavenly Pow- ers! couch with Bad times test character with, pecti- liar thoroughness. There is a strength revealed by adversity that no other experience can bring .to the surface. ‘Courage never shines quite so brightly as when “everything goes dead wrong." 1 have sometimes stood in amaze- ment at-the strength and' patience ex- hibited in calamity by some whose previous careers of ease and comfort had kept their stronger qualities quite submerged. When material fortunes have tumbled in wreck, when the in tanglible walls of physical disease closed in upon one, when some Strong arm on which one has rested has heen taken away, then it is that fortitude gets its chance, There is in many souls a fine vigor of faith that asserts itself, not when things look bright, but when all is gone except God and self. Human sympathy, moreover finds its richest expressfon in times of grief. “T never kngw before that 1 had so many friends!” explained a man after a painful “accidemt. It is a Pity, but a fact nevertheless, that we often have to walt for trouble to come -before we, know how kind human hearts reaily are. “Count it all joy,” said the Apostle James, “when ye fall into manifold trials.” Not many-of us reach. the point where we can unaffectedly do as much as that. Perhaps it is emough to expect of most of us that-we lear to trust that, in some way beyond our present ken. the dificulties and ger- rows of life .are .really opportu: rather than defeats, and that the whole painful lot of them may serve to re- veal in - us the peaceable frults of righteo: B ‘something—ev: male sex 1s & captain in those .gllfl.

To them there is no friend like the ocean, during the all too short season at the shore. They have only pity for the mortal, be he mil- lionaire or king, who does not know the exhilaration of the plunge in the waves, the brisk run to the strand, a quick breath to be sure one's heart is working properly, then back again for a eecond dip, to find the tempera- ture of the surf has apparently risen several degrees since the first plunge. After that, all talk about “weak hearts,” “too delicate health for sea baths,” etc. is but a joke! The ocean is rybody's friend— but after the manner of most friends lkes to be sure it has the complete trust and confidence of those who seek it! THE DICTAGRAPH.
