IS THERE A HE'LL?

i A San Francisco clergyman having
stated that there is no material hell,
q great commotion is at once raised
and noted divines are being interview !
ed on the subject.
Bishop Moreland comes out plainly |
and says that lake of fire and brinl-
stone is all nonsense and that the ad-
vanced church has long ago ceased to
wave this frey menace in the faces Of
the people.
The bottom was long ago knocked
out of hell by Henry Ward Beecher
and as soon as the Brooklyn preacher
showed the world what he had done,
he was the most popular man in Ame-
RIGA.
Bob Ingersoll made a chopping block
of hell and made it look rather more
like thirty cents than .Beecher. Not
being orthodox, however, his work was
not regarded as the handicraft of az
expert
Ingersoll tells the rather good story
Of man who applied at the house of
an old Calvinistic lady for admission
was asked IL he believed in the doc
trine of eternal damnation.
Knowing that on his answer depend
ed q warm meal and nights lodging
he replied: .
II am not quite sure, but think sew
eral millions of souls will be burned
up."
WELL" said the old lady, that idea
don't quite come up to the mark, but
its better'n nothing. Come in"
About the most foolish argument IN
the subject comes from the Episcopal
rector Of st. Mary's church. in San
Francisco.
Hear this.
'"Theologians know that it has
been taught from the beginning
of time that there is a material
hell. And the proof Of it is found
in the belief of the resurrection of
the body. The body is not spirit,
and cannot be reached and touched
by anything spiritual, but only by
something as material as itself.
Hence the need of material hell
to mete out justice to a resurrect-
ed or material body"
In other words this theologian be
lieves that body that has been turn
ed to dust and possibly dispersed l.
the four winds of heaven, will, afte
thousand years, be gathered togethe
and resurrected a material body, sin
ply for the purpose of being torture
in hell for the rest of eternity.
Suppose that some of these element
returning to earth, mingle with vege
tation and become the component par
OF another body through the proce4
of nourishment and assimilation SUI
pose the original atom was once
part of good mans body and afte
wards part of a bad mans body Ho7
are the flames of hell to distinguis
between them?
To follow the argument of the Sa
Francisco divine, simply leads one i
to the maze of puerile absurdity
The reverned gentleman must hay
forgotten the language of the Episc
pal burial ritual, when he talks of
one hundred and seventy pound ma
rising from his grave q material boo
and speeding to the birthstone lal
to be burned. The language of the b
rial service obliterates all idea of he

The Geography of Dishonesty:

Is dishonesty matter of geographic
cal location? And are its boundaries
so well defined that one may pass
from virtue to vice by the simple ex-
pedient of crossing the street? A certain
well-known "quick-lunch" proprietor
conducts two establishments, both sit
uated on the same street, although on
different blocks. But in the matter of
administration they are as far apart
as the poles. At the upper place conf
dence in the patrons of the establish
ment is apparently unlimited. The
loaves and fishes are in plain view
and within easy reach of the hand.
Everybody helps himself, and even the
formality of lunch check is omitted.
You merely step to the cashiers desk
and lay down q coin whose denomina-
ton Is the exact measure of your appe-
tite and incidentally your conscience.
No questions asked. At the establish
ment of the same name and only
block away the atmosphere is decid-
edly different-almost chilling, indeed.
Here n servitor at the door compels
you to accept a numbered check be-
fore you are allowed to pass the por-
tails. All the viands are out of reach,
and with each separate article that you
receive your Indebtedness is unalter-
ably recorded upon your slip of paste
board. And no one goes out unless
he delivers up his passport and other
wise makes good. In such wise are the
sheep separated from the goats. and

strain may come the wheel will not
split under it.
Having placed the two heads care
fully together so that they are eX-
actly true, nail them to each other
with short nails, driving some in
one side and some in the other. In
figure the dotted lines show how
the head that is underneath should
lie in relation to the top one.
After the two parts have been firmly
nailed together so that they will not
yield, take a plane and carefully
smooth off the edges of the wheel
that has been thus made. so that it
will be perfectly round. Be careful
to plane only very little at one time.
A good way to make sure that the
wheel is true is to draw n circle of
just the size Of the wheel. You can
make it with a piece of string and
a nail for a compass. Then you can
lay the wheel on the drawing from
time to time to compare it until it is
perfect.
Now, get two pieces Of wood about
four inches wide, three quarters of
an inch thick and four feet long and
shape the ends into neat, comfort
able handles, as shown in G in figure l.
To the square end of each handle (at
X, in figure q nail 4 wedgeshaped
block. This block should be made of
a piece of wood about four inches
square on the sides. One edge should
be pointed, just like the wedge. The
other end of it should be about three
quarters of an inch thick.
Nail this to the square end of each
handle, as shown in II. figure 3.
Now, when you have thus finished
both handles, you will be ready to
make the axle and the wheel blocks.
The axle, X, is merely a piece Of
broomstick six inches long. The wheel
blocks are intended to give the wheel
a steady support so that 1t will not
wobble on the axle. They are made of
piece of wood about half an inch
thick and six inches square, and are
nailed firmly to the wedge, as shown
In figure 3.
Now bore holes through the handles,
wedges and wheel blocks to admit
the axle. Then bore holes through
the wheel. but be careful to make
this hole little smaller than the others
for the object is to have the wheel grip
the axle so firmly that instead of the
wheel revolving on the axle. the axle
will do the turning in the handle.
After the wheel has been properly
adjusted, the handles will be in Just
the position that they are to main
tain in the completed wheelbarrow

them by themselves. Simmons College
has been opened with 125 fall students.

A Robinson Crusoe wheeIbarrow.

The sailor who made this wheel
barrow was cast on an island where
he knew he would have to wait for
some time before a ship was likely
to take him off. So in the meantime
he had to provide himself with food
and shelter. This was not difficult,
for the wreck of his little vessel was
close by on the beach. But carrying
the material out of it and well to the
beach, where it would be safe from
tides and storms entailed much labor,
SO he set to work to make q wheel
barrow. He took -four barrel and
soap box that had washed ashore,
and, with hammer and nails from
the wreck, he soon finished a per-
fectly practical wheelbarrow.
This is the way to do what he did:
Take the two heads out of barrel.
Do it carefully, so that the wood shall
not be split. Now lay these two heads
on top of each other, in such a man
ner that the cracks in the upper one
will be at right angles to the cracks
in the lower one. The idea, of course,
is that the grain of the wood shall
be balanced so that whatever way the

Land For Apple Trees.

Sometimes when the land is very rich
young apple and pear trees make very
rapid growth. and produce more wood
than should be the case. while larger
trees than have grown much wood will
not bear fruit proportionately Iu such
cases a grass crop in the orchard will
do no harm, especially to the young
trees. but the sod should he turned un-
der the second year. If the season is
dry the grass may secure the greater
share of moisture; hence when the or
chard is in grass and a drought ap.
pears the grass should be plowed un-
