Paul S. Heffeman of Pasadena addressed
the Sunday evening meeting OF the Univer-
sal Brotherhood at Aryan hall, 525 West

said the speaker, has been expressed in va

Of today, and twenty-five centuries ago, in
ancient Greece, Pythagoras wrote, I'VE are
our own children The habits of child
hood-habits of conduct, of speech and of
thought cling to us through life. The great
sage, Patanjali, shows how our thought
makes Us what we are. Man is indeed
made of thought His body is only the
tenement from which the real man looks
out upon the world. Even. the mind is only
the instrument of the real man--the soul
and as Patanjali shows. the mind isnaturaisy
colorless, and takes the form and colog. Of
that toward which it is directed. As 10y
instance, full of joy from an appropriate
cause, it becomes sad and gloomy when the
external conditions are thus changed. Thus
it is true that the mind becomes that to
which it IS devoted. Ii we give our atten-
tion and our energies and our desires to the
temporary and tieeting objects of sense, We
make for ourselves a sensuous world, within
whose narrow limits We revolve like a
squirrel turning the wheel in his cage. b 1T
if we hold steadfastly to high ideal, we
make a firm matrix of thought, into which
we build hour by hour, dny by day, and
year by year; and if we fix our devotion
upon the Supreme Beng-the highest that
we can conceive-we gradually grow >ito
the likeness Of the divine.

What Is
HELP

Doctrine of He'll
1t is the especial privilege and duty of the
Universalist church, said the speaker,
which is the vanguard OF universalism, to
challenge the truthfulness OF any doctrine
which decries the character of God or un-
dsrrates the power of the means which he
uses for the salvation of his children. We
believe the Bible teaches God to be all
powerful and auloving, and that view
which makes him less than this is merely
Rarely in the present day are we confronted
by such an utterance as this. 'Dvine love
and goodness cannot prevent men who have
the power Of choice from choosing evil in
stead OF good and going down to the grave
in sin and suffering, and by virtue OF their
own sinfulness into eternal separs ton
from the presence OF all that is pure and
good on earth and in heaven" 1t is found
necessary to support this pessimism by say
ing: 'For this, God is no more to blame
than for the suffering of the man who
throws himself down a precipice." And
as evidence of this great failure of God is
given an opinion of what is meant by the
term Gehenna, and a solitary text The
word Gehenna is said to be "the strongest
word defnitive of anguish and suffering
after DEATH" and 'Jesus used this word
frequently as applied to the condition Of
the wicked after death" As matter OF
fact, Jesus made use of this term to define
the suffering OF sinners in this world es-
pecially; with him it represents the hell Of
this earth, which he had come to abolish by
abolishing sin, its cause. He was expound
ing law of God, which law is stated in the
sermon we are reviewing, and is its only re
deeming feature" In the very nature o.
man there is reward for good and suffering
for evil" This suffering is the gehenna
of Jesus and the Jews, and it follows evil
wherever and whenever evil occurs.
As regards the text used. depart from,

Spring Water - sugsesttons
from Our Nlinister.

United States Minister Powell at
Port au Prince, Hasti, is much i'm
pressed with the idea that the island
OF Genaives, in the Gulf of Leogane, or
Gonaives, this largest dependency OF
Hayti, would afford the naval station
which the United States has SO long de-
sired to possess in these waters. The
island was granted under very liberal
conditions some years ago to three
Haytians, NM. Nord Alexis and B.
Riviere and DR.. Aubrey. Only n. Alexis
is now living, and the concession re-
mains unexploited.
The island of Go3aiyes Is almost in
calculably rich in mahogany. 1t is
mainly composed of picturesque is
lands, which would yield enormously
in coffee If properly cultivated. The
highest mountain peak reaches about
5000 feet above the sea, and, with the
neighboring SUBMITS, presents a most
striking appearance, especially when
viewed from the mainland and invested
with the varying giamor of the sun
set. AT midsummer the sun, as seen

the island. The rugged shore, guarded
by many hidden reefs, affords but two
commodious ports, one the Bale Du, on
the southeastern side, and the other
the Anse a GaletS, on the northeast
ern. There are several pronont ories
commandingly situated, which would
be available for defense.
In the interior are numerous springs,
while the dark soil is evsnly 1noistened
throughout the year and has fertility

The flood was caused by the breaking

floor ON the west side of the hotel, just

Gebhard gave the alarm. They were
returning to the hotel, and were sur

A SECOND MOON.
DE. Geors WalIensth, Astronomer of
Hamburg, Germany, Mskes Re-
markebse piseovery.

DR.. Georg Wallemath, the astron.
omer of Hamburg, Germany, has dis
covered second moon, which revolves
about the earth. In writing of his dis
covery, be says:
There is second moon revolving
around the earth. 1t is the most er-
ratio creature IN the heavens, 30 far
as we know. Sometimes It fares ou,
in a sheet of fame that looks like q
drawn scimeter. In a moment It NAV
vanish, flashing its rays like search
light Oft into another part of distant
space. Again 1t may be seen IN the day
hme-a small, black spot, crossing the
suns disk in the same way tha. the big
moon does at the time of an eclipse.
At the time of it's greatest brilliancy II
has even been seen during daytime, q
small, white speck in the azure heav-
ems.
II predict It will next be seen cross
ing the sun on the 3oth of the coming
July.
Il believe the so-called changes OF
climate that come to certain parts of
the earth are due to its influence. /,
seems to work in cycles of years-pro-
ducfng at one time protracted series
OF wet seasons, and following that a
series of dry seasons.
This new moon is probably the mys-
terious influence that has caused the va
ration of the big moon from It's orbit,
a matter that has nnzzled ar+ronornars
for 20 centuries and upset their finest
calculations.
Il first announced to the world the
existence of this moon last January.
My prediction that it would cross the
sun on or about the Sd of February was
remarkably verified, for from the uni
yersity observatory of Griefswold near
the Baltic sea, came the news that il
was seen on February d."

FLAGS FOR rssS.ESEAIRES.
Newport Man &eeorates the Belmont
and Vanderbilt Mansions with
Red, White and Blue.

So intensely loyal is Alfred Denisot,
of Newport, R. l., that he grieved to
note that the estates of Mrs. Oliver Bel
mont and Cornelius Vanderbilt were
not decorated. So with bundle of
flags he invaded the grounds and nailed
the stccs and stripes to the mansions OF
the rich.
When the care takers heard Alfred
cheering the flags they ss me forth and
chased the patriot away. They also
tore the flags down, but that did not
discourage Alfred. Es returned IN the
night with fresh decorations, and next
morning the red, white and blue waved
proudly on both estatsA The oolors
hoated from roofs and pillars, and on
some of the trees the industrious
Frenchman had planted immense flags.
When this crop was removed back
came Denisot with others still larger.
II want you men to remember the
Maine," he said to the attensants, ''and
let these flags alone Every person IN
America should fly the colors In this
crisis. Hurrah for the red, white and
blue!"
Denisot then placed iron chains on the
gates and fastened them with brass
padlocls. By order of the attendants,
the locks were shattered with dynamite
and the estates were once more stripped
of the Denisot bunting. When the pat
riot was arraigned on charge of tres
pass and disorderly conduct he said he
deemed it his duty to decorate the most
expensive estates at Newport. The
young man was released on his personal
recogriZance.

WOULD you know how to change
nautical knots to miles, for the better
comprehension of land lubbers? Then
divide the number of knots by 10, and
divide that result by 2. Now add the
number of knots the tenth and the half
of the tenth together, and you have,
sufficiently near for all practical pur-
poses, the answer. For instance
1920 knots
