THE SUPREME NECESSITY
Ist. Louis Republicl


 Says William E. Gladstone. s1t is supremacy not precedence, that we must ask for the Bible; it is contrast as well as resemblance that we must feel compelled to insist on. The Bible is stamped with speciality of origin and an immeasurable distance separates it from all competitors. 7
 The Christian 4drocate hopes that the words of the ex-Premier will strengthen the spinal column of some preacher or layman who is in clined to be panicky in the face of foes who have been routed again and again They should have that effect, and doubtless they will, and it is undeniable that the inspiration of such spirit as that of MT. Clad stone, who is himself as nearly in spired as it is possible for men to grow in these latter days, could hold battalions of men against the as- saults of the higher criticism. But it is carrying hero worship to unsafe as well as to unwarrantable lengths to rest such tremendous case upon the declarations of any one man, or to assume that such declaration is in itself an all-sufficient defense to which the weaker brethren of the church may fly when in extremity and in tremor.
 The opinions of no man can save the church from its foes, but the knowledge of which such opinions are the result will be it's shield and anchor The claim of the Bible to a sacred pre-eminence in literature and authority was not made by Mir. Gladstone as an inspiration or as the result of any cursory study. It grew out of his profound conviction, resulting from years of patient and laborious investigation and analysis of the Book, tracing out the wonder ful unfoldment of plan of evolution of a world and of race, the estab- lishment of law, and the growth of man in moral conception and percep- tion to the point of accepting the vicarious atonement for sin.
 Mir. Gladstone could have accepted the Word through faith without works or have rejected it through prejudice without unders landing Hismind being of such a high order of analysis and arrangement it was i'm. possible for him to do either the one or the other. He entered upon ex- haustive research, putting sacred to the test of comparison with profane history, weighing in equal balance the arguments for and against the inspiration and the divinity, bring ing colossal but human understand ing to the solution of problems hith- erto apparently insoluble problems The result was his conviction that the Bible is above all comparison with purely human work.
 But the church cannot rest upon

XXI.-THE HUNDRED DAYS AND FINS.
On the 12th of April. 1914, the Past
rode into Paris. 1t had ON tho white
cockado Of Bourbon, and came out OF
England The Past, after all absence or
twenty three yeass, was old and fat.
Young men born in tho year Of the Ter
ror, sitting in the cafes on that day,
had never seen the Past before. At the
gate of the Tuilerios. it reeled on its
fine horse, and was about to fall. The
attendants helped it to alight, and sa-
luted it as Louis XVIII, Paris, the city
Of effervescent jubilee, was ominously
silent. Some cidovant royalists tried to
shout, and only gasped. That was the
Restoration!
On the 3Oth of May the allies conolud-
ed their trial treaty Of peace at Paris
Napoleon had gone to Elba. There he
began at once the organization OF his
country, just as though it were an
empire. His capital was Porto FerraJo;
his residence, the Hermitage of La Marciana'
The new sovereign saw at glance what were
the resources Of his kingdom: and the little
insr,lar realm felt the touch of the master
hand. improvements appeared in the munich
pal governments. A fine road was built from
the capital to Porto Longone. The traveller In

DANCING HORSES OF sYBARls.
Ruse by Which the Crotoniates Con-
quered Their Enemies.

DHNClNO f1OhOCo VT O'O6ho'
A Ruse by Which the Crotoniates Con-
quered Their Enemies.
In St. Nicholas, James Baldwin
tells of the decline of the Greek COL
ony of Sybaris after the inhabitants
had given themselves up wholly to
pleasure. Of the battle in which
they were finally conquered Mr.
Baldwin writes:
When a spy reported to the Gro
tomatoes that he had seen all the
horses in Sybaris dancing to the mu-
sic of pipe, the Croton general saw
his opportunity at once. He sent
into the sybarite territories large
company of shepherds and fifers
armed with nothing but flutes and
shepherds pipes, while little way
behind them marched the rank and
file of the Crotoniate army. When
the Sybarites heard that the ene-
my's forces were coming, they mar
shaled their oavalry-the finest in
the world at that time-and sailed
forth to meet them.
They thought it would be fine
sport to send the Crotoniates scam
pering back across the fields into
their own country, and half of syb-
arts went out to see the fun. What
an odd sight it must have been
1000 fancifully dressed horsemen,
splendidly mounted, riding out to
meet an array of unarmed shepherds
and handful of ragged foot SOL
diers!
The Sybarite ladies wave their
handkerchiefs and cheer their cham
pions to the charge. The horsemen
sit proudly in their saddles, ready
at a word to make the grand dash,
when, bark! a thousand pipes be-
gin to play, not Yankee Doodle
nor Rule Britannia" but the ma
tional air of. Croton, whatever that
may have been. The order is given
to charge. The sybarites shout and
drive their spurs into their horses
TANKS. What fine sport it is going
to be! But the war steeds hear moth
ing, care for nothing but the music
They lift their slender hoofs in uni
son with the inspiring strains.
And now the armed Crotoniates
appear on the field, but the pipers
still pipe and the horses still dance.
They caper, curvet, oaracole, pirou-
cite, waltz, trip the light fantastic
hoof, forgetful of everything but the
delightful harmony. The Sybarite
riders have been so sure of the vic.
tory that they have taken more
trouble to ornament than to arm
themselves Some of them are pulled
from their dancing horses by the
Crotoniate footmen. Others slip tc
the ground and run as fast as their
neryeless legs will carry them back
to the shelter of the city walls. The
shepherds and fifers retreat slowly
toward Crotona, still piping merrily,
and the sprightly horses follow
them, keeping step with the music
! The dancing horses cross the divid
ing line between the two countries
they waltz across the Crotoniate
{ fields, they caracole gayly through
the Crotoniate gates, and when thu
} fifers cease their playing the streets
of Crotona are full of fine war horses
! Thus it was that the Sybarites los
; the fine cavalry of which they hat
been so proud. The complete over
5 throw of their power and the con
quest of their city by the Crotoniate
followed soon afterward, for how
between so idle and 50 Industrious
e community, could it have been other
: wise?

STOLE HIS TROUSERS.

Some time late Thursday night a
burgler broke into the residence of
Bruce Boyle at 275S Adams avenue.
and stole Mr.. Boyle's trousers. The
intruder was discovered before he had
got through with his work of going
through the house, Bruce gave chase
but the burglar having the trowsers,
the owner could not put them on, so
he went Just as he was in his night
shirt. 1t was a lively race, because
Mr.. Boyle wanted to recover the stolen
property, first because he knew he
would want the trousers in the morn
Ing and then there was $3.50 in the
pocket Of the garment. The burglar
was Splinter and Dir. Boyle was by
40 means slow. but the burglar made
the best time and got away.
Mr.. Boyle returned home, washed off
the mud and went to bed Yesterday
morning he found the trousers in a
vacant lot, but the $3.50 was gone
with the man who made the best time.
Mr.. Boyle admits that the other fell
low can beat him running and that it
was fine race, yet he does not like to
give up the stake money.
