ANEW SUMMER DRINK.

old-fashioned households, that was hand
ed TO callers in cut-glass tumblers, where
the ice tinkled with suppressed merriment
trying to pretend that II really was
conVivial drink. Then there was the cur
rant shrub, another drink of the same
type, and cold clarct cup ana sherry
cobbler for those VINO began in early days
TO meet the man half way. The variety
of summertipples without alcoholis legion
and the newest Of these is a wonderfully
delicate, delicious and attractive com
pound. 1t is called "Sirop de Grenadine, "
made from expressing the juice of III,
pomegranate seed, The color is a clear
1ame-red, with an orange light through

The proper way to serve ii is to cover a
third of the tumbler with 1t and the rest
with icc-cold Vichy or carbonc water. If

Some Definitions Tor Sociology.

There is radical need of a voca
bulary Of definitions which may
be used in the discussion of social
problems. | suggest a few;
|. A tramp One who will not
work and earn an honest living.
Sometimes he sleeps in the police
Station. and sometimes he lodges
in Paris hotel.
>. A Pauper-One who is sup.
ported by the public. He may
be supported in a poor house,
and he may draw his rations from
the public crib through an Of
flee or a contract.
3. A Thief-One who steals.
Perhaps he picks your pockets
while your back is turned to him;
perhaps he robs the public from
its treasury while you are busy
at the store or shop,
A Rascal-One who cheats
or defrauds. He is sometimes
a gambler who cheats at cards
or dice; but possibly he is ''one
of our best citizens, who stacks
the cards or loads the dice which
deal HIM full pocket of fat con.
tracts or turn him three aces of
"exras.
3. The Social Evil The bar
gaining Of virtue for cash com
pensation. This compensation
IS usually comparatively small,
but occasionally it is counted in
millions or jewels, ana is solem.

harsh words. He went around
again and again. and the crowd

last, Joshua doing his duty, with
faith in God, the walls of Jericho
crumbled and he occupied the

Now, then, we are marching
right here, and the same crowd
of grumblers stand on the street
corners and say: Look at those
cranks, demagogues, fanatics,
rattle Drained fools. old maids
and Sunday school teachers; they
can do nothing" We don't stop
to quarrel with them; we simply

You cannot kill a great princi-
pie either the principle will be
victorious or the government
goes down; but if the principle is
not victorious now, and the gov.
eminent goes down, still the
principle will live, and as sure
as God is all powerful and just,
it will triumph. If our govern.
ment fails, it will not be the first
time that God has blotted out a
government because of its sins,
and raised up another govern
ment that will appreciate and
obey His laws.

You who hold the power of the
ballot-what are you going to do
about it? That is the question.
You do not have TO answer to
me, but you will have to answer
at the judgment seat of Christ.
No man can evadeit; no man can
avoid it. No one is too high to
be above its power, and DO one
is too low to be beneath its saw
ing grace, May God help US all
to do our whole duty
