An Open Door To Ruin.
Cst. Louis Christian Advocated


We would be very glad to impress
our brothers of the country press with
the very great dangers that lie in wait
for the multitude of young girls that
are fiocking to our cities. especially
st. Louis. and notably at this time
The country press is a tremendous
power for good and if they would keep
this matter before their readers, con-
stantly warning all as to this open door
to ruin, many might be saved who else
were lost. The gateway TO st. Louis,
our great Union Depot, is beset by
a thousand snares for unwary feet
Any young girl who comes through
the gates into the midway is at once
spotted and if il be posi- BILE the snare
will be so spread in her path that she
cannot escape No girl should come
here unless absolutely certain as to her
course. The many tempting advertise
ments are often mere bats for ignor-
ance and innocence And if she comes
to the city ready TO enter the first car
riage whose driver proposes 10 take her
to a good, cheap boarding house, or to
accept the first situation offered where
no experience is required, she may as
well bid adieu to innocence and hope
when she leaves her home. And as a
matter Of course the young man is
almost equally exposed so far as NOR
al or even physical safety is concern
ed. If the country papers will only
keep these things before their readers
they will serve God and humanity.

TIMELY TALK ON ROAD
TAX BY A ROAD WORKER.

! am told we cannot get more than 10
cents on the 500 road tax unless we
vote ii on ourselves, and to do that we
will have to get an act passed by the
State Legislature to allow us to take
vote by districts whether or not we
will work roads by taxation and how
much tax we shall have.
Now let us hear from Nj. Norman
and Mr.. Payne, for man that is not
road tax advocate cannot justly
represent the people in the Second
magisterial district, this county, for,
/ believe, there are four-hfths Of the
voters in favor of road tax and be-
lieve further that they would vote on
a tax like this KINDS cts on 500 and
one dollar poll tax on every voter in
the district. With that kind of tax we
would have about So, 500 road money
every year. which would, in few
years, pike every road(o any conse-
auence)in the Second district. We now
have only about 81, 200, not enough to
do much good and we also have the
worst roads we have had since the
road tax was levied and for the fol-
lowing.reasons. The people are slow
to work the roads for nothing and pay
tax too. - The overseers have lost all
interest in the worR and never WORK
out their full time and great many Of
them never call out the road hands at
all. We know it is not just for us to
work roads for nothing for they are rs
much benefit TO one as another Tell
me of any Their public work done for
nothing by any one class of people.
Now let's see into this business and
vote a tax sufficient to make good
TO ads, and, at the same time, elect a
(by vote of the people,
for term of two or four years and
pay him a salary sufficient to compen-
safe him for giving his attention to
the work.

welcome, Not Dread. Death.
From twenty to fifty a man should

fifty to 100 for science and humanity
and after hundred for the state. Hon
ored, useful, in full possession of all
his faculties at sixscore years and ten,
the graybeard of the approaching fu-

of mankind. for the fear Of death is
an alteration.
The fact is that only one man In a
million at present dies a natural death.
We should live till 40 years of age. A
man who expires at seventy or eighty
is the victim of accident, cut off in the
flower of his days, and he unconscious
ly resents being deprived of the fifty
years or so which nature owes him.
Leave him little longer and in due

All our instincts drop from us one by

The idea of such an ailment is repug-

all impulses that have their day and

The Day After.

1t is q strange omission that the
day after, supreme and epoch making
period of time. should have failed to
receive the homage which is its just
prerogative.
De Quincy, in his powerful bit Of
word painting entitled THE Knocking
at the Gate" dwells on the thought
that in Macbeth" the climax of the
tragedy, the moment most truly
fraught with terror, is not the one in
which occurs the murder of Duncan,
or when the guilty pair nerve them
selves for its accomplishment, but the
