THOUGHT RULES THE WORLD.

The blooming of rose is the express
sion of divine thought breathed out
through the laws of nature. The birth
of soul into the earth-existence is the
result of a higher form of expressed
thought revealed by the same laws of
nature. Thought discovered these laws
and put them in operation. Thought
sways the universe in its natural course
adjusted by law and order. Man moves
on in his accustomed rounds of work
impelled by an unseen force. He is at
times cognizant of sustaining, con-
trolling force and for the time being
gives himself up to the benignant in
fuence and is engulfed in divinity of
thought, wherein lies the secret of soul.

HOPE AND PRAYER.

Those who are in prison have all eX
cellent opportunity of learning and
testing the efficacy of hope and prayer.
With a long term Of years to serve
under the most rigid discipline, main
tanning absolute silence and watched
at all times, even during the night,
having light flashed in your face
every haIf-hour is apt to drive hope
from the staunchest heart. Those who
have never served term in prison can
not understand the torture which must
be borne, any more than a person who
has never been severely burned. can
realize the suffering of one who has.
Visitors who pass through the prison,
note the extreme cleanliness of the cor
ridors and cells; the perfect order which
prevails in the shops, where hundreds
of men with bent heads are attending
to their machines. not daring to raise
their eyes. Many parsons, superficial
thinkers of course, imagine that the
punishment is not so severe after all.
I am confident that even the judges who
intlict such severe penalties, frequently
for an offense involving few dollars
and where life was not threatened, are
totally ignorant of the punishment
which must be endured. After being
under this discipline for time, pris-
oner begins to think of his past, and
. future possibilities. Every act of his
previous life is vividly recalled to his
, mind. He thinks of his trial and sees

SELF-CONTROL.

TO the want of self control we can
attribute the majority of evils that are
committed today, and we believe it is
the pivot upon which rests our honor,
character and friendship among our /
fellow men. We cannot say with alb
solute certainty that we will not do this
nor that, for as human beings we are
liable to commit errors at any moment
OF our lives. Time and circumstances
are the only real test that proves such
to be the case. We find at times that
it is an exceedingly difficult matter to
maintain our self control while engaged
in conversation with an opponent who
refutes the ideas advanced and has
doubts as to their correctness and source
of information, from making sarcastic
remarks that often makes a lifelong
enemy of one who has been admitted to
the sanctuary of our life. Many a
bright young man who was surrounded
with all that tended to make life one
complete round of pleasure and hap
because the head of the family pos
sessed an ungovernable temper that
did not agree with his sensitive nature,
and compelled to earn the necessaries
of life among strangers in strange
aand. inexperienced and badly equipped
to fight life's battle is he, who is
without the directing hand of an ex-
perienced father who has safely avoided
the dangerous shoals and pitfalls for
three-s score years: without the kind
and encouraging words of loving
mother who lends a listening ear nc
matter how small the offense; without
the society of brothers and sisters, he
soon becomes prey to the evils that
surround him and is fortunate if he
does not become drunkard, thief, OF
gambler-all for the want of self-cOn
troll. The man who loses his self-con
troll and commits crime while being
swayed by his passions and wrongs
is more to be pitied than condemned
His unblemished life, his position il
society. the innumerable acts of kind
ness that have brought tears of glad
ness to the eyes of those bowed dow
with grief and sorrow, are some of tn
monuments that marked his pathwa

EDUCATION AND REFORM.

There have been periods in the worlds
history when a whole nation was en-
gagged in general crusade. But never
before has there been so vast and uni
versal movement for reform in every
condition of life. The people are clam
oring for ballot, suffrage, municipal
social and economic reforms.

ers or reading their eloquent appeals

fact that there is one pre-eminent rem
edy proposed for the various evils OF
civilization. Through the medley of
reformative measures runs one refrain,
one recurring plea, Educate! Educate!
Educator What is the solution pro-
posed of the negro problem? Educa-
ton for the race. What is proclaimed
the safeguard against anarchy and all
the dangers of foreign population?
Education of the immigrant classes.
What is pronounced the only check
upon the tendencies of natural erimi-
nails? Education of the children of
the depraved. What is the means pro-
posed for the elevation Of womankind?
Higher education for women. What
is the proverbial cure for political cor
ruption? Education of the youth of
the land. What is the golden 'panacea
for every ill that flesh is heir TOP Edu-
cation of the masses.
SO one might go through the list of
all the sins of the calendar, and find
that the modern antidOte for every
evil was education. Where the brute
force of legislation was formerly en-
ployed, the moral suasion of culture is
now the accepted doctrine. Is this uni
versal plea for education concerted
action on the part of philanthropists? ?
BY no means. 1t is the basis each has
reached in his efforts to solve his own
proposition. 1t is as yet scarcely rec
ogniZed as the universal point OF attack.
But it will in time be seen in this light,
and all reforms will resolve them
selves into a vast crusade for educa-
tion.
There is a deep significance in this
trend of progress. 1t is more than a
fad for learning. The man who floats
on high tide of mere book culture is
only in rare cases of natural talent, the
man who achieves great things. The
, majority of mon who have NapOleon-ed
the world have been men who dealt di-
y rectly with the forces of Nature and
Society. Familiarity with books alone
= will never satisfy the demands of the
'' world, but true education, in its broad
, est sense, will prove the salvation Of
"a mankind. Such education will tralr
the senses, discipline the will and de
velop the mind. 1t will make of ths
:. body perfected instrument, which re
- spends accurately to the control OF TIT
70 intellect. It will place man in hi
; proper relation to himself, his environ
