A SERMON ON LOVE AND PUNISHMENT

HONEY bees the most wonderful and the
most intelligent animal of their size of all the works
of God. Bees should be handled by those who love
them. To handle bees careessly or indfferently is
to injure the bees, and probably to njure yourself
Aye, you may pay for your carelessness with your
life
Men who manage horses successfully are always
men who love horses I horseman, and know
by actual experience every phase of horse raising
and horse training.
Horses should be taught, not broken.
Men should be taught not governed.
And to teach successfully you must love. He
who loves most is the best teacher.
Men who manage men should be those who love
men. But every Jail and every prison is in the
hands of men who despise and fear men, Every
prison is university where hate fasehood villainy
and vice are taught Every Jail is preparatory
school for wrong. And all the hate and untruth
that prisons create spring naturally into being be-
cause men are possessed of the illusion that they
have divine right to punish other men. Every
item of the decaogue can be broken legally, and the
chief business of lawyers is to tell you how. Thus
society sets the example of wrongdoing And so
long the state sets the example of killing it's enc
mics men will occasionally kill theirs. Laws to
degree contrivances for revenge but principally
for the making of the many pay tthes and taxes to
the few. Are the politicians you know who
love their fellow men?
Be careful how you manage men, for the day is
surely coming when if you have not love and yet
attempt to manage you will pay for your rash
ness with your life
Preachers have told us that we should reform in
order to prepare for death The wise teacher tells
that they should forsake sin to prepare for
life Sin is wrong expression of your life energy,
and therefore is mstake-a mistake fraught with
bad results. All men, in the law out of it, who
make business of Furnishing other men, are in
bad and foolish business. That is to say, they
expressing their lives unwsey -sinfully. Judges,
lawyers, detectives, policemen and prison guards
expressing their lives absurdly, they very seldom
grow either in intellect or spirit. Almost without
exception they rogues and hypocrites.
Sin is it's own punishment. God never Furnishes
men for their sins; self-lubrcating automatic law
looks after that How preposerous the illusion that
holds fast in the mind of puny man that it is his
duty to go nosng and hunting around the world
with handouts, clubs and come-alongs in order to
punish other men who have sinned! Such hunters
of men are ignorant of both God and man, and are
themselves hunted by the devil.
Be wise and teach, but do not punish, for Gods
in His heaven and all's right with the word.-The
Philistine

VULGARITY.

VULGARITY is the stain by which vice consumes
and corrodes character To mix with low, lazy and
lawless ibertcides and the sensual pleasures of dis
spation without being contaminated with the vulgar
characteristics of the rufian and roue, is like dis
charging deadly dynamite in ones coat pocket hop
ing to escape getting injured. Our likes and dis
likes, character of the company keep and our
habits of enjoyment are reflected in manners and
speech To refine and purify morals we
must pick our associates and select our pleasures
with the same and precision that we would ex-
ercise in choosing profession The vulgar have
nothing to recommend them and nothing to learn
FROM but the example Of vice their bearing suggests
Regard for character, true manhood and good ex-
ample reside in purity of thought loyalty to good
habits and excellence of behavior. The operative
powers of improvement that incline to sef-con
scious knowledge of moral capacity for resisting
hurtful influences and avoiding surroundings sug-
gestive of evil intuitvely teach methods of nstruc-
ton to be followed in selecting what is beneficial
and elevating in the formation of character and in
accepting their guidance led from the low,
vulgar and immoral to higher sphere of respect
ability

wild in their estimates in regard to Chinese
munitions of war; as England in relation to the
Beers in South Africa. 1t appears that the
Chinese are thoroughly armed with modern guns
and are adopts in handling them. For years she
has been importing the very best of weapons which
money could purchase. and her troops have been
drilled under the watchful eye of competent foreign
ers. The attaches at Pekin, it seems, were not
cognizant of this knowledge. They are either in
competent for such duties else the ceestals have
outmaneuvered them in proper style. If reports
are true as to them being supplied with modern
guns war with China will be no child's play.
