so when he becomes a partisan and
carries his partisanship into the pulpit;
when he thinks the virtue and intelli-
gence OF the community are all to be
found IN one party and the vice and
ignorance all in the other. and endeav-
ors to put the weight Of his church, or
even his own ministerial influence, in
the one party scale; when he turns his
pulpit into party platform and
breaches for doctrine the principles of
the Republican or Democratic or Pop
ulist or Prohibition party; when he en-
deavors to make his church or his pull
pit serve the cause OF any one party as
against other parties, instead OF the
cause of pure purposes and noble
spirit in all parties. Then he puts poll
tics into his church and degrades If he
does not also divide it. Putting the
church into politics is quite another
matter. In their antagonism to the
union of church and State many Amer
leans have unconSciously adopted a
theory of secularism which is as unten-
able in philosophy as it is immoral in
tendency. Christianity is social as we'll
as individual. Religion is the art OF
living and concerns life in the State as
truly and directly as it concerns life In
business, in society or even in the
church."
"Of course there are difficulties"
says the "Watchman" (Bapt) of Bos-
ton, ''in framing a comprehensive
scheme of arbitration between two
great nations. But they are not greater
than those which confront any onward
movement of humanity. The truth is,
the difficulties that are most commonly
alleged against such a scheme will not
bear examination. They are preteXts,
not reasons. The one great difficulty is
the trait of human nature that wants
to fight, and this impulse is abetted by
the men who have little faith in moral
forces or whom the spirit of militarism
has infected, or who have personal ends
to be gained by war. Even in our pub
lie schools the glories of war have been
far eXtolled above the victories of peace.
The Joint High Commission which
settled the Alabama claims, is Of a suf-
ficiently remote date to take place in
our school histories, but, without eX-
amining them all, we venture to say
that the Mexican war unjust as it was,
receives far more gloriicatiOn in our
school histories than the splendid tri-
umph of arbitrat tion in the Joint High
Commission and Great Britain's ac-
Quiescence in it's disappointing award.
The provocations of war are in the in
herent ferocity and brutality of human
nature, and in the education which we
are giving our children. A few years
ago our school histories were subjected
t. searching examination for their al
legged distortion of statements bearing
on religion. 1t is high time now that
they were winnowed of their glorifica-
ton of militarism.'

Mr.. PEARSON, were you on this bench

you grant this divorce?"
"Mcst certainly, your honor" replied
the minister.
But how do you reconcile this state
nent with the injunction, What God

DEVICE TO LIFT THE HAT.
1t Avoids the Wearer Any Difficulty
in SaIuting the Ladies.

The champion labOr-Saving man is a
Washington fellow, who has come to
the rescue Of the chappies of the prom
enade. This genius is James G. Boyle
of Spokane, Wash, and the invention
which will carry his name down to
future generations is what he calls a
"saluting device" 1t is nothing more
or less than machine which saves the
wearer the trouble of taking off his hat
every time he speaks to lady The
machine takes off his hat for him the
moment he bows his head
The mechanism is actuated by a
spring motor and is controlled by
ball pendant. The whole apparatus is
stored in the crown of a derby hat,
being clamped to the leather sweat
band. There is also clamping device
which fits the head Of the wearer AS
the latter mods his head to an acquaint-
ance on the street the movement i'm
parted to the ball pendant starts the
machinery. The hat is then shot about
foot above the head. Here 1t is
poised a few seconds, during which a
fitting motion is impaired to the back,
much the same as if the salutation had
been a handmade article instead of
machine-made The hat then falls back
and takes it's proper place on the head.
To the chappie who is compelled to
salute many ladies in rapid succession
this device will be great boon. Like
wise, to the politician, whose success
depends largely on the popular favor
in which he is held. But there is an
other who Will receive the saluting
machine with open arms-the commuter
and suburban resident. With his arms
loaded with bundles and small pack
ages tied to his coat buttons and pro.
truding from his pockets. he is often
at loss to pay proper tribute to his
feminine acquaintances as he hurries
to his train. But with the saluting de-
vice he will be able to pay them full
oourtesy.-Chicago Chronicle.
