Belief and unbelicf.

To the Editor:
1t is hard to tell what -Four 10 driving at In
his letter to The Evening WORLD Aug. 4,
unless he means to infer that only the uneducated
and superstitious believe that the Bible is the
revealed word and will OF God
superstitious error is one thing; intelligent be-
lief in the Word OF Cod a belief founded upon
SUFFICIENT evidence and which incuieates q per-
sonal responsibility to the Supreme Being Is
altogether different.
Education has always been and will always be
the handmade OF true religion. We are indebted
to the Christian Church for having preserved
the learning OF the world in the past. fraught
with error the Church was in the middle ages.
We are indebted to Christian men for tho nrst
schools and colleges founded In this country.
The Oldest and foremost colleges and unlver-
stiles In America at the present day are the
fruits OF Christian industry and benehcencc.
They are Christian men and women all over
the civilized world who take the lead In all
educational matters.
Want Of space prevents my going into par
ticulars. I would refer -Four to history and
current periodicals.
Surely, -Four must know that the brightest
| and ablest Inteilects OF this century, both In
| America and In Europe. not counting the promi-
| nent ministers. were and are men In whom
| practical faith in the Bible the Word OF God
and humble plety are vital part Of their charae'
tiers.
The foremost OF our Presidents were Christian
| men-Lncon Washington, Grant, GARFIELD. the
| present incumbent OF the Presidency and his i'm.
mediate predecessor. The reply OF Daniel Web
ster. the Intellectual giant OF the Senate OF hi
day. that mans personal responsibility to God
was the greatest thought he ever had. is familiar

the sophistries OF ''Four's' letter except to sal
that to my mind Gods taking Elijah from th

Milk of Roses.

Milk of roses comes as near being a
wrinkle cure as anything in the drug
store. To be brutally candid, there is no
cure. but the following balm is slightly
stringent and by tightening the skin
presses out a few lines. Boil gum BEN
zoin in spirits Of wine until a rich tine
ture forms, or, better still. buy 10 cents
worth of tincture of benzoin. Put a tea
spoonful in a glass of water. wash the
face. neck and arms and let IL dry.
This gives the skin a sweet smell and
faded cheeks a bit of bloom.

It ia not a matter Of 30 very much
Importance that men approach senators
to buy their votes on certain clauses Of
the tariff bill. Any man mean enough
to sell his soul to Satan might try to do
that If his business interests were at
stake, more's the pity. But it lie very
much to the point to know whether
any senator took a bride or not-a bride,
that is to say, in any shape or form in
respect to sugar or in respect to any
thing else. We have had ugly rumors
during the present session of congress
about senators making large sums of
money on the Stock Exchange through
knowing beforehand the reports certain
committees were to give ont On the
action that would be taken after the re-
ports were made. It is time these ru-
mors were settled once for all. A SEN
ator is as much bound as a president
is to be above making money out Of his
Official position. The American people
will tolerate nothing less than absolute
ly clean hands. The senator who vio-
lates his oath SO far as to use his official
position to fill his own pocket should be
held up to infamy and have the finger
Of scorn pointed at him the rest Of his
life. II there are any such senators now
at Washington, the American people are
entitled to know it. Let this investiga-
ton go to the bottom.
