TRUST QUESTION IN CONGRESS

Some twenty auti-trusts bills nave
been introduced into congress since its
opening but no discussion OF a revision
of or substitute for the Sherman Ia"
has vet occurred The question OF the
regulation of great industrial combines
to compel them to transact their bus
iness within the limits of the letter and
meaning of the law is important.
1t is AZ we'll to remember that congress
at this session is unlikely to pass remedial
anti-trust legislation for the good reason
that il will be prorogued in eight weeks.
1t hardly seems possible that a question
of such magnitude and gravity can
satisfactorily BE- solved in such short
space of time. No adequate discussion
is probable or possible within the period
Some reports are current, that, If bill
is not ,assei at this session the president
will promptly call an extra session to
enforce action.
OF the many bills which have been
introduced one fathered by Senator
Hoar Of Massachusetts attracts the
greatest attention The senator If
chairman Of the senate Judiciary com
mittee, which committee has charge OF
the anti trust bills in the upper chamber
Owing to his eminent abilities as con.
stitutional lawyer, his rectitude and
breadth of craftsmanship as well as
his intimacy with the president, his bill
is taken as reflex Of the administration
policy on the trust problem The chief
features Of the HOar bill are publicity,
granting power to the federal govern
ment 10 prevent rebates, preferences,
the suppression Of competition aud a
provision TO prohibit any concern twice
guilty Of violating the act from engag-
ing in interstate commerce. The bill
also guards against evasion by forbid

Franklin Miles, N. D., IL. B the Celebrat.
ed Specialist. Will Send a Course Of
His New Special Treatment Free.

When an experienced physician offers
to give away $4,000 worth of New
Treatment for diseases of the heart,
nerves, stomach or dropsy, it is conclu-
sive evidence that he has great faith in
it. And when hundreds of prominent
men and women freely testify to hi,
unusual skin and the superiority of his
New Special Treatment, his liberality
is certainly worthy of serious consider
alton.
That DR.. Miles is one o. the world s
most successful physicians is proved by
hundreds of testimonials from we'll
known people. One patient cured after
failure of eleven Grand Rapids physi-
clans, two after being given up by six
and seven Chicago physicians one after
nine of the leading doctors in New York
City, Philadelphia and Chicago failed.

The eminent Rev. w. Bell d. D., of Dayton

writes editorially in THE STATE SUNDAY School
UNION: I'VE desire to state'that from personal

neither labor nor money to keep himself
abreast of the great advancement of medical
science"
A thousand references to and testi

This new system of Special Treat

Kodol does for the stomach that

proverbs

When the butter won't
come put a penny in the
churn," is an old time dairy
proverb. 1t often seems to
work though no one has ever
told why.
When mothers are worried
because the children do not
gain strength and flesh we
SAY give them SCOTS Emul-
sion.
1t is like the penny in the
milk because it works and
because there is something
astonishing about it.
SCOTS Emulsion is simply
4 milk OF pure cod liver oil
with some hypophosphitcs
especially prepared for delicate
stomachs.
Children take to it naturally
because they like the taste
and the remedy takes just as
naturally to the children be-
cause it IS 50 perfectly adapted
to their wants.
For all weak and pale and
thin children SCOTS Emulsion
IS the most satisfactory treat

THE PASSING YEAR.

Across the shadows OF the night
There come to my expectant ear
The twelve deep notes that tell the night
or yet another passing year.
Its limits reached, its work Is done,
Its record sealed and sent on high,
Unknown to all and seen by none
Except Gods own all-seeing eye.
All, mel those years, those vanished years,
In memory, but beyond recall,
How filed with foolish doubts and fears,
How stained with sin and blotted ALI
What can we ask Of thee but grace
To make these failures Of the past
The beacon lights by which to trace
Our way to thee, Christ, at lastl
Farewell, Old Yearl There have been days
OF grief and ill-so, too OF good;
And for them both we give God praise,
Though at the time misunderstood.
His wisdom measures all our needs;
He knows the weakness OF our frame;
His love our highest thought exceeds;
he calls US by his own dear name.
So pass the years in solemn state
Beyond our ken; we count the sun;
They come and go, we watch and wait
Until our own set time shall come.
God OF the years, from out whose hand,
With all our precious gifts, they come,
Give us the grace to understand,
And make them helps to lead us home

She went with him to the mill and
through the village. There her mistaken
idea OF his character showed In q strong
light. Many of his workmen were living
in poverty. She knew he was doing all
he could for them, but was there not
some way she could help? What was he
going &c do for the men and for the
churches Of the town for Christmasf
Then they must remember the little chill
dren.
Christmas Eve came. Mr.. Bentley
had shamefacedly ordered Simpson to
provide a regular Christmas dinner"
He had never made a Christmas gift in
his life, but now-well, Florence would
persist in talking as il Christmas meant
as much to him as it did to her.
He was thinking of this as he walked
home that evening. 1t was showing, and
the wind buffeted him as he mounted the
slope. The next day the mill must stand
idle, but on the following morning the
men should be notified of the reduction,
in their wages. How angry they would
bel Gilbert Bentley's lips closed In a
firm, cruel line. He had looked out for
himself; others must do the same.
He reached the house As he passed
through the hall the dining room door
stood open. He noted the vase of scar
let carnations, ordered from the city, In
the center of the table. Upon a quaint
old sideboard was basket OF oranges
and pale green grapes and plate Of tho
nuts over which Florence loved to linger
while he drank his coffee.
The old mans face softened. He sat
down before the fire. He was so en-
crossed in thought that he did not hear
Florence enter.
"You precious grandpal' Again her
arms were round his neck. Il found
your gift, and 1 thank you a thousand
times. But grandpa, l want to ask you
for something more. 1t is part in your

Her dimpled hand closed his lips. You
are not to malign my dear grandfather.

Yes, dear"
In those two words the old man re-
nounced his greed and selfishness. On
the morrow his workmen should receive,
not a reduction of their wages, but an
assurance of his good will and interest
in them. For this child's sake he would
learn to know and do his duty.

He made no response. They parted
without the words being said that would
send Florence back To school. Mr. Bent
ley resolved to say them at breakfast the
next morning. There he found himself
confronted by that smiling face, and was
obliged to hold his peace.
Florence stayed. Simpson, the maid,
and the man all delighted to serve her.
A few simple changes were made in the
dreary old house. Mr. Bentley chose
some new furniture. He ordered that
good fires should be kept up and babe
Simpson see that the table was we'll
spread.
Gilbert Bentley was powerless. Flor
ence would think the best of him. She
would think that he loved her and was
glad to have her there. She would be-
lieve that he shared her own love for hui
mainly and her reverent trust In God.

The frown on his brow deepened. He
leaned back, staring from a window. He
could see the long, low buildings of the
Bentley Lumber Company. In the back
ground was the leafess forest. The sun
was setting and the sky, above the tree
tops, was tinged with a rosy glow.
Gilbert Bentley had spent ten years
In that numbering village. In that time
he had doubled his capital. Now, owing
to a general depression, his profits were
small. To continue his business through
the winter would mean very little profit,
but doubtless the spring would bring a
change. Well, he would not wait for
spring.
Money had always been Gilbert Bent

His wife lived only a few years. There
was child. Harold had grown up, high
spirited and proud. In early manhood
he married against his fathers wishes.
Estrangement had followed. Harold and
his wife died within a few months of
each other, leaving a little daughter.
Pride prompted Mr.. Bentley to pay the
girls bills at a good school, but he never
saw her
The door bell rang and there was the
sound of footsteps and voices in the hall
The door of the study was thrown open,
and a sweet voice cried:
Grandpa, are you here?"
Before Mr.. Bentley could speak, Simp-
son, his old English housekeeper, enter
ed. In one hand she held aloft a lighted
lamp, thus showing Gilbert Bentley his
unexpected visitor. She was a slender
girl of sixteen, dimpled, blonde face
lighted by sunny blue eyes.
