HERE ARE MODEL POLICEMEN
Chicago Times Hersld.)

Detective Sergeant Early Of the
Central station returned yesterday
from Lynchburg, Va, having in custody
Joseph E. Wright, an alleged burglar.
Detective Early was greatly impressed
during his stay in Lynchburg by the
conduct of police matters. He was
welcomed there by the chief Of police
with open arms, and says the inhabi-
tants of the place thought nothing too
good for him. The point which was OF
greatest surprise to him, however, was
the fact that not one member OF Lynch
burgs police force would join him in .
drink. This, he says, was not due to
lack of hospitality, but because the
police there are all prohibitionists. At
the request of the detective Captain
Colleran sent a letter OF thanks TO the
Lynchburg chief of police.

CHRISTIAN ENDFAYOR.
Young Peoples Woody. J

Topic, September Is: The Triumphs
Of Christianity-Luke 4; 1922.
The apostate Emperor Julian saying
with his dying breath, "Oh, Galilean,
thou has conqured" uttered fitting
confession for those systems of mingled
truth and error which have tried to an
swer tho questions humanity faces, and
to satisfy its longing. The teaching
Of the "Galiloan" has oyerthrown many
false faith, and the next half century
Is destined to see some Of its most mag
niGcent triumphs in this direction.
The great nations Of the earth are
uominally Christian. The Peasant Of
Nazareth is honored whenever a ruler
fakes control Of the destinies of one OF
the countries which are called enlight-
ened. A legal document cannot be
executed without recognizing the SOP
ereiguty Of the Lord Jesus. And yet
these thin IS are but trifes IN conpari-
son with the great tiiumphs Of Chris
tianlty. some of which have been won
so silently that the world failed to real
ize that they were won at Ill.
TIL TRIUMPH OF CHRISTIANITY.
There rye rome Lish continents
which seem to many Of US grained in
human nature We Spas %. one who
takes pleasure in The suffering Of others
as "dograded,' and imagine that he
has fallen below what might be ex-
poctcd Of one Who hal never felt the
touch Of Christly tenderness. But in
digration against cruelty and injustice,
sympathy for misfortune. pity for SUI
fering, arc not natural traits, but out
growths Of Christ teaching We look
back to lie Roman Empire at time
when wealth abouudcd, and literature
and art domishod proportionatcly, and
we find cultured nations looking with
delight on contests that cost bloodshed
and human life. The torture Of wo-
men and little children was deemed an
agreeable entertainment for holiday.
Mercy and charity and justice are not
found ID humsn nature rs matter of
cou,se, but in the centuries through
which The gospel g.. love has been
preached, the little lcayen has leayened
the whole luml Taepullic sentiment
Of civilized communities, falling short
as it does so offer, is nevertheless one
Of the most magnificent of the triumphs
If Christianity.

lowed the money, the lady who presld-
ed moreover gently limited that it would
not do.
And little Richard, clinging TO her
hand, asked, as they went home, "W1at
is it, mammal" Then poor Jane wish
ell that she were dead.
Old Miss Dinker called in high dudg-
con upon the schoolmistress, and re-
mopstrated in vain. The fact that she
stole a spelling book during her briet
stay did not further her object. When
little boy was sent for it at dusk Jane
wished herself dead again. If only she
could have had pride IN anything or
anyone, she thought; but life was all
shame to her.
"Habits are hard to beat" she said
"but I'll try. Only you oughtn't to bo
go hard on me when I've stuck to you
SO" And then she revealed a plan
which she had concoc ed for giving
the boy an education. an put him to
the best school in New York" she
said. "I'll keep the story that they
tell-lie as 1t is-to myself, and I'll
pay his bills regular. faint likely I'm
agoing to see Lin grow up without
dedication. Well make him a clergy
man or a doctor. Well snap our fin
gers in the faces of these critters. Ill
take him up myself tomorrow and he
shall come down every Saturday
night"
II shall miss him go said Jane,
'fBut it's for his good, and thank you,
aunt"
So Jane spent the night in tears, and
in tie morning Aunt Dinker went to
the city, taking with her little Rich

Jane suffered great deal that day
and when at night she saw Aunt Dink-
or return alone size could not find voice
to speak to her. But the old lady was
IN good spirits. She sat down before
the fire with her shawl on and told
Jane how pleased Richard was with
the journey and how Miss Speers had
admired him. And Jane brought her
the tea and she took it sitting by the
fire. but still kept her shawl on; and,
moreover the shawl looked curiously
thick and bunchy.
Once before had Jane seen the same
thing, and it had resulted in the ap-
pearance of somebody's work-box. Her
heart misgaye her,
"Aunty," she said, in trembling
tones. care you cold?"
"Not particularly" said Miss Dlnk-
CT.
"Then sha'n't take your shawl
when ask you to do so.
Jane was silent. Old Mss Dinker
fidgeted. Finally Jane burst into re-
proaches.
