President Francis f. Clark in his
annual address before the convention
OF the Christian Endeavor society in
Boston last week. among other things
said:
Judged by all standards it is no
immodest statement that the Endeav-
or movement is a success. An or
%ganization which in fourteen years
has grown from n society to 40, 900
from fftv-six members to nearly p
500. 000. an organization that has
belted the globe: that finds itself a.
much at home in Old England a. in
New England under the Southern
Cross a. under the North Star. under
the Dragon flag OF China as under the
Stars and Stripes of America. can
claim surely to be no provincial and
temporary expedient. but a world
wide. providential movement. Is
peciallv is this true when it is re-
membered that this success has been
achieved without any ecclesiastical
patronage, such as has brought into
existence and assiduously fostered
other societies OF the Endeavor type.
ITO speak OF our efforts for a bet
ter citizenship. it behoores us 20 be
very modest. | make no extravagant
claims for the Christian Endeavor
society, but il is fair TO say that the
society has had no insignificant part
in the general uprising OF the Chris
tian people which has buried Tam
many under 10000 white ballots in
New York city and is now fighting an
equally corrupt foe of another breed
in the same state, which has voted
for reform, $4,000 strong, in Chicago:
which is now engaged in cleansing
the dirty streets and the dirtier poll
ties of that and other cities:and which
in a hundred places, has awakened
the civic conscience and purified a
fetid political atmosphere. Nor is it
too much to say that the aroused in
terest in worldwide missions among
Endeavors has done something to-
ward furnishing the army of volun-
teers, six full regiments. each 1000
strong, who are eager to march for
ward into the enemies country, to
do battle for the captain of their sal
walton, whenever the churches shall
furnish the sinews of war
Not as a political party. but IN all
political parties we stand for right
eousness, for honesty, for purity, for
good men and good laws. The En-
deavor society's true nilsson, as of
every similar organization, is TO
awaken and keep awake righteous
public sentiment, until organized
~wickedness sinks away abashed and
ashamed of itself. Not as on organ
lied society, but as well organized in
dividuals, simply because we are fol-
lowers of Christ, let US stand everv-
where for the right. Do not be con-
tent with overthrowing one Tammany
in New York and another in Chicago.
Do not be content until a Tammany
in America is forever an impossibility.
DC not be content until a corrupt
political deal is an impossible and in
toIerable as an open cess-pool would
be in your own parlor. Follow the
flying foe. Push things. The sword
of the Lord and of Christian Endeav-
or SO for the other great twin
movement of the day. Push things.
and keep on pushing Do not be
content with holding meetings and
arousing enthusiasm or even yolun-
teering for mission field, but pay the
debts

Noses.

Except In regard to shape, theories about
noses are varied. There are Roman noses,
Greek noses, cogitative noses hawk noses,
snub noses and celestial, or turn up, noses.
The Roman is aquiline In shape and Is
said to indicate great decision, energy,
flrmncss, absence of refinement and disre-
gard for the niceties of life. This was the
nose of the Romans, the conquerors of tho
world, u people who, despite their associa-
ton with the refinement of Greece, re-
manned unpublished Says an English
writer: 1.-THE Roman nose is common to
great soldiers, as it is to Others who have
been characterized by vast energy and per
severance in overcoming great obstacles
without regard to personal ease or the well
fare of their fellow men.
Tho Greek nose is perfectly straight.
Any deviation must bc carefully noticed
If 1t tends to convoxity, 1t approaches the
Roman, and the character Is improved by
an accession of energy. On the other
hand, when 1t tends to concavity it par
takes of the celestial, and the character Is
weakened. 1t should be fine, well chiscled
but not sharp The Greek nose indicates
refinement of character, love for the fine
arts and literature, astutencss, craft and
preference for indirect rather than direct
action. Its owner is not without some
energy in pursuit Of that which is agree
able to his tastes; but, unlike the owner
of the Roman nose, he cannot exert him
self in opposition to his tastes" As the
name and mental characteristics suggest,
this was the nose of the ancient Greeks,
whose triumphs in art, philosophy, poetry
and acute reasoning are well known, Just
rs are their craftiness and deceit. Brook

of the silver craze, the exorcism of the
consecrated one" and the exposure of
Mr.. Smiths past by the Atlanta Constitu-
ton, that free silver at a ratio of Is to

years ago Mr.. Smith thought he had dis
covered something as sure of harvesting
the cranks and the credulous as the dis
covery by another Smith once upon a

did not run along theological lines else he
might have had greater success with It,
1t related to hard, materlalistic fact which
had to do with bread and butter and the
merits and dement's of which could not
long be concealed. He shouted for cur
rency with non-perishable agricultural
products as basis, the substitution Of
legal tender notes for the interest bearing
bonds and the free coinage of silver.
Who can doubt that the publication Of
these, his former views, have given the
talkative secretary of the interior an oozy
sensation? Hoke says he was converted
several years ago, but We cannot avoid
the suspicion that he never saw the light
of revelation so wildly, as when the
Constitution called his former views to
public attention, including the attention
