A TALK TO ALL
HOPELESS MEN.
By Mrs. Ballington Booth.

The first prison that I visited in this
country was Sing Sing, and I knew moth
ing then of what is called 1.-The prison
problem" Anything that I bave learned
of it since 1 have learned from my boys.
I only knew on that first visit when /
looked down into the faces of the audi
ence before me hat 1 saw written there
hopelessness and longing. I knew that in
the future. there might be a retrieving of
the past by a brave manly struggle to re-
gain the self-respect which many of them
seemed to hin had gone forever.
In ten State prisons there are 5000
men wearing the little badge which says:
"Look up and hope" There is a fight
to be fought and a victory to be won.
And the battle must be begun within the
prison walls.
Many men have said to me: ST am
going to do right as soon as I get out"
If the resolve is worth making it is worth
making now. If the battle is worth
winning it is worth winning now. Don't
wait until you get out to be free. There
are letters stronger than iron, there are
prisons more combining than these walls.
1t is the binding of the soul by some
VICE or some weakness that makes men
prisoners, and there are many men walk
ing about the streets who are more abb
solutely bound than a man chained in q
prison cell.

WE ARE BOUND
BY CREEDS.
By I. De Witt Talmage.

The unfortunate thing now is that so
many Christians are only half liberated.
They are bound hand and foot by re-
llglous creeds. Let 10 man misinterpret
ne as ~antagonizing creeds. I have eight
or ten of them; a creed about religion, "a
creed about art, a creed about social life,
a creed about government, and so on.
A creed is something that a man believes,
whether it be written or unwritten.
The Presbyterian Church is now agi-
fated about its creed. Some good men
in it are for keeping it because it was
framed from the belief of John Calvin.
Other good men in it van revision. I
am with neither party. Instead of re-
vision I want substitution.
1t is impossible that people who lived
hundreds of years g should fashion an
appropriate creed for our times. John
Calvin was a great and good man, but he
died 1856 years ago.
I could call the names of twenty living
Presbyterian ministers who could make
a better creed than John Calvin. The
nineteenth century ought not to be called
to sit at the feet of the sixteenth.
But, you say, it is the same old Bible,
and John Calvin had that as well as
he present student of the Scriptures.
Yes, so it is the same old sun in the
heavens but in our time 1t has gone to
making daguerreorypes and photographs.
1t is the same old water, but In our
century il has gone to running steam en-
yines. It is the same old electricity, but
in cur time it has become a lightning
footed errand boy.
So it is the old Bible. but new applica-
ions, new uses, new interpretations.
You must remember that during the last
BOO years words ave changed their
R1l1 n 7, r and oJo of %hara ,a-
more, and some less.
I do not think that John Calvin be-
ieved, as some say lie did, in the damna-
lion of Infants. A man who believes il
he damnation of infants himself de-
serves TO lose heaven. What Christ will

OF FOREsTY.

The ARGUS has from its incip-'
iency, from time to time, endeav-
ored to impress upon it's readers
especially its farmer patrons, the
Importance of outstanding our for
ests and of planting new ones.
Hardly had the country recov~
cred from the shock Of Calves
toms colossal calamity when a less
disaster by water was reported,
several important rivers of that
great State having overlooked
their banks aud produced local a
lamities that would have attracted
national attention if the Galveston
horror had not so recently occur
red. Science has discovered no
method of preventing, although it
may ~foresee, such storms as the
one that brought destruction to
Galveston. Bot science has dis
tinctly indicated a way to prevent
destructive river floods, and that
is to turn the river watersheds,
especially the region of their
sources, into forest land.
George Vanderbilt served his
country we'll when he planted Bit
more, his great foresty expert
ment station, in the midst of the
higest mountains facing the At
lantic ocean. For it is by the de-
nudatlon of the mountains that
droughts and foods are
caused. The springs dry up, the
denuded surface hardens, the
streams shrink. and the rain,
when it falls, instead Of sinking
into what was once a spongy and
porous soil, runs off and causes
sudden rises and oYorfows on
the lowlands.
The treeles prairies that cons
stitute q large part Of the vast
watershed of the Texas rivers
offer a fine field for another
great forestry.

One of the things that 1 nave set my
self to fight is the word "ex-convict."
That is a cruel, unjust, un-American
word. When a man is suffering the pen
atty of his. crimes he is a convict, but
when he has made his PREPARATION to
society how cruel it is to call him an
aX-convict. The moment he has serves
his sentence he is a free man and no
one has the right to attach that stigma
to him.
I will go from Christian church to
Christian church until his wrong is
righted, and I will appeal to the hearts
of all Christian people to help make a
chance for those who have been in
prison. In the Volunteers we never use
that phrase. We have a much better
one, I think, We call the men who have
! been released from prison graduates
! For they are graduates, for surely this
is the hardest school in which men can
learn the worlds hard lesson.
l told my husband once that [ could
never enter a prison again until it was
possible for me to do something for the
man who has served his time and is
trying to lead an upright life. 1 know

man who is trying to do right.
I have ever had men come into my
office in New York City faint with hun
ger, who nave tried to gain an honest
livelihood actually to- the point of star
walton. I am glad to say that now we
! are able to do something for t;leee men
in a practical way. We have established
in New York City, in Chicago and at
Flushing. L. /, what we have called
Hope Halls" We lave one rule about
these institutions. and tina is tina no
one who has not served a term III prison
can enter the door.
The reporters have come to me and
said:
and have our artists make some sketches
Of it."
And 1 have replied:
II am sorry, gentlemen, but as you
have not served a term IN prison. L am
. compelled to refuse you admission
The detectives have come there, too,
and have said they would like to talk
to me about some of the men there. /
have told them that they might see ne
at my office, but that that house be-
longed to my boys and they could moi
enter. And no detective has ever
learned one word from my lips about any
man who has ever come TO us or who
has ever trusted me with his confidence
That is not my business.
This is how the Hope Hall in each
city is chosen and fitted up. A house il
chosen in the p~leasantest, locality oh
tainable and furnished as prettils AND
tastefully as possible, so as to remint
the man who once had a home of tn'
days when he had u mother, and per
haps a wife and children, and to Sur
round the man who bad never known
home influences with the best that wer
to be had.
Any man who comes to Hope U9l
is welcome to stay there until we hay
found him permanent employment.

ALL WARS ARE COSTLY.
But in the Long Run They Prove
Money Making Concerns and Great
Britain Hopes for Compensation.

1t is customary to suppose that war is
an expensive luxury, that it is so costly
an experiment that nations hesitate to
in it for monetary if for no other
reasons, and that many a difficulty will
be automatically arranged to avoid the
possibility of the enormous expenditure
that armed conflict would necessitate.
In spite of popular opinion, however,
history proves conclusively that it is
foreign to fact, and that while war is
costly enough to those who are van
quished, there can be no question that
it is one of the finest methods of national
money making, providing it is waged
successfully.
Such an historic review is particularly
interesting at this time, in view Of the
fact that Great Britain has been called
upon to make the most enormous appro-
priations for the purpose of carrying or
the war in South Africa, and yet, in
spite of the immensely of these figures,
there is reason to believe that the Eng
lish Government would be able to end
the war with a profit to itself providing
| the Beers can be defeated within a COM
| paratively short time.
| There have been many wars between
| the nations of the world during the past
| thirty years, and in nearly every instance
the victorious nation has been able al
| the close to regard its bank account witt
a considerable degree of complacency
| and there is more than one of the power
full diplomats of Europe who would
agree in the assertion that there are
many things in this world that are worse
than war.
