WANTS A LITERARY TEST.

Ideas on Voters and Candidates by Rev.
DIR. Fulton.
At the Second Presbyterian Church, ALLIE
gheny, the Rev. J. L. Fulton, DID,, spoke
yesterday on ''The Ballot" before the Fort
Pitt and Pleasant Valley Councils of the
Jr. o. o. A. NJ. A history of the events by
which republican government was reached
served as an introduction to his sermon.
He spoke of the necessity of educating
vosers, and believed there should be liter
ary test. Following this came an appeal
for woman suffrage, because women have
sufficient intelligence, and also because
those who own property are taxed and yet
not given any representation.
In regard to candidates, DR.. Fulton said:
"The Office should seek the man, and
not the candidate the office. The
word suffrage comes from a Latin word
meaning the hook joint. This is the joint
by which an animal lifts itself, and it is by
the vote that candidate lifts himself to
Office. When a horse rises it first lifts its
head, and its body afterward. The COW
first brings into play her hook Joint, and
then lifts her head. Politics ct present are
too much On the horse-hoisting style, while
the bovine method is the proper one."

AN OBSOLETE COMMANDMENT.

Rev. j. ID. Butler Says the Fourth Was
Made for the Hebrews.
Rev. J. D. Butler, pastor of the East End
Christian Church, at the corner OF High
land avenue and Alder street, took view
opposite to that of the majority of clergy
men in his Sabbath Observance" sermon,
Yesterday. He said: 81 hold that the law
of the Sabbath for the world is to be found
in Genesis, second chapter, first to third verses.
That law was given for all time to come for
q mans physical, mental and moral well
being The Ten Commandments were given
TO the Hebrews alone, and the fourth COM
mandment was exclusively their law of the
Sabbath and went out of force when the New
Testament law came in under Christ. The
fourth commandment is absolutely obsolete.
AS the fourth commandment is for the
Hebrews, so the Lords Day is for the Lords
people. The church as such alone can keep
that day. The secular day is for mans
health"
NJ. Butler also noticed the Law and
Order Associations work. He charged his
people to keep the Lords Day in the home
as well as in worship. They are not to do
unnecessary work or keep their servants at
unnecessary work on the holy dav.

AMERICAN FLAG SYMBOLS.
Budget of Thought Given Out by the Rev.
Mr.. Cowl.

Budget of Thought Given Out by the Rev.
Mr.. CowL.
The Thanksgiving service of the Jr. o.
{. A. NJ. was held last night in the Union
Avenue NJ. P. Church, Allegheny. The
Manchester, Reliable, Colonel Clark,
Peerless and William Thaw Councils
were present. Rev. Mr.. Cowl
first told what the American
flag symbolizes by saying: "1n the
thought of the Jr. o. U. A. NJ. it symbol
izeS Americanism and nationalism. They
open the country's gates TO the world, but
invite only the best and try to bar out the
worst. 1t also symbolizes TO them that sell
tishuess which leads an American to
help an American in preference to
one of any other nationality. 1t
also gives to them the idea of an open Bible
in every school. and also that in those
schools clean, unclipped history should be
taught. History tells of the horrors of the
inguisition.
History should be taught in schools as
il is, and it is the dutys of this order to see
that the story OF the past which is handed
down TO children, shall tell both faults and
the virtues of all parties and of all re-
ligions."

PRAISE OF MAN

Or Praise of God, the Subject of Rev. DR..
Sutherland's Sermon.
''For they loved the praise of men more
than the praise of God" was the text from
which Rev. J. r. Sutherland, d. D., pastor
of the Second Presbyterian Church, preached
last night. He said: "You can tell what a
man is when you know what he most loves.
The Pharisees believed in Christ, but
would not confess it because they loved the
praise of men more. There is great deal
of secret faith as well as secret doubt. Men
are kept back from acting with Christ be-
cause they love the praise of man, and will
not risk losing it.
''The praise o: men and the praise of God
seldom fall upon the same men," continued
Mr.. Sutherland. "In the society of to-day
it is not the best man or best woman, but
the hest dancer, the loudest dresser and the
smallest-brained persons who are more likely
to be considered successful"
