"Thc Old Man"

In oldcn times, before the boy
If sixteen or eighteen was wiser
than the head of the family, he
addressed his sire as "Father."
In these days Of high collars,
loud neckties and cigarettes, he
is known as "The Old Man"
If this lack of reverence and
respect for the man who tolls for
his loved ones, who knows no
sacrihce too great TO bring COM
fort to the home, whose back is
toll bent and whose brow bears
the marks of a fierce conflict in
the busy, struggling world in
order that he may bear home at
nightfall in his tired arms the
fruit of his labor for the benefit
OF his family, is due 10 thou9hl'
Iessness on the part of the boy
who is the object Of so much
solicitude, then it is time for the
careless one to stop and think.
If this apparent lack Of respect
is due to social conditions some
thing is radically wrong, and a
halt long enough for serious re-
Elections is badly needed. The
young man who doesn't manifest
the highest regard for his father
at all times has lost his self re-
spect in a very large measure,

The message Of the Democracy
to the American people should
courageously enjoin that, in sin
cere and consistent compliance
with the spirit and profession Of
our interference in behalf OF
Cuba's self government, our
5eneficent designs toward her
should also extend to the lands
which, as an incident Of such in
reference, have come under our
control; that the people of the
Philippine Islands should be aided
in the establishment of a govern
ment of their own; and chat when
this is accomplished our interfer-
ence in their domestic rule should
cease"

worldly affairs is to honor his

A Tribute To Mothers.

The person to whom you owe
more than you ever can pay, or
;even imagine, is your mother.
;She endured more for you, served
you more patiently, loved you
Smore fondly, thought of you
more bravely than any other per-
son you have known on earth,
or will ever know, save your wife
or husband, if indeed, they can
always be excepted. If your
mother be spared to you, then
are you bound to make her a
sirst charge on your life as you
elesire a peaceful conscience,
and as you shall answer before
ahe judgement seat Of God. She
snust be encompassed with every
observance of comfort and honor
nd eentleness and love, with
sacrifices also, if so be it will
lease her. of tastes and occupa-
ons and time, even friendship;
nd after you have done all you
an think of and any one can
5uggest, you will still remain a
bankrupt for the love wherewith
he loved you.-Ian Maclaren.

The Star Preacher.

He has seen his day and run
his course. You rarely ever hear
of him. 1t is well that he is gone,
for he is not needed now. What
ever sphere there was for him he
has already filled it, and a differ
ent sort of preacher is in demand
We have entered an eminently
practical age. People now want
substance and not sound; they
want the unvarnished truth and
not painted tinsel; they want re-
suits and not show; they want
instruction and not an hour OF
entertainment. The sky-soraping
period is a thing Of the past, and
the appointing powers OF the
church are in search for men VINO
live on the earth, who are well
equipped for service, who know
men and women, who have a
sympathy for struggling human
ity and who know how to lead
souls Alright and build them into
sturdy manhood and womanhood.
The pulpit is not the place to
make a display Of genius, but to
preach the everlasting gospel OF
Christ in such a way as to make
people think, turn from sin and
live according to the rules of
righteousness. And we firmly
believe that the disposition upon
the part of the church people to
have preachers Of this sort will
grow more and more as the years
90 by. The gospel is an intensely
practical system Of truth and it is
inten led to accomplish practical
results in the lives and characters
of men. Paul was an ideal
preacher and there was nothing
but solid, spiritual food in all his
utterances, and to return to his
style of presenting the truth
ought to be a popular movement
His style is eminently eXpository,
with an occasional hortatory ele-
ment added. Instructive preach
ing is the sort that produces con-
viction, brings to better life anc
saves the world. Let us have
more of it, for it is the power Of
God unto salvation. The church
needs it and humanity is hunger
ing for it.--Texas Christian Ad'
yocate.

DEMOCRATIC DOCTRINE.
Ex-President Grover Cleveland Talks oi
The undertaking Policy.


land had an article in the last
number of the Saturday Evening /
Post on "Democracy's Opportun-
ity," and those who have had the |
pleasure of reading it have found /
some solid democratic talk. Mr..
Cleveland notes with pleasure
that harmony is about to prevail
in the ranks again, and expresses
the belief that with the proper
candidate the democrats vii! win
the next national election. The
following is a portion of Mr.
Cleveland's article, and deals
with one instance in which this
republic fell from grace:
"When our Government entered
upon a war for the professed
purpose OF aiding to self-govern-
ment and releasing from foreign
rule a struggling people whose
cries for liberty were heard at our
very doors, it rallied to its en-
| thusiastic support nation OF
| frecmen, in whose hearts and
minds there was deeply fixed by
heredity and tradition the living
belief that all just powers of gov
ernment are derived from the
consent of the governed.
1t was the mockery of Fate that
led US to an unexpected and un-
foreseen incident in this conflict,
and placed in the path of our
Government, while protesting
national righteousness, repre-
senting an honest and liberty
loving people, and intent on a
benevolent, self-sacrificing er-
rand, the temptation of sordid
ACKNOWLEDGMENT and the false
glitter of world-power.
No sincerely thoughtful Amer
lean can recall what followed
without amazement, nor without
sadly realizing how the apathy OF
our peoples trustfulness and their
unreflecting acceptance OF alIur-
ing representations can be played
upon.
No greater national fall from
grace was ever known than thai
of the Government of the Unitec
) States, when in the midst of high
design, while still speaking words
} of sympathy with the weak who
struggled against the strong, and
while still PROCESSING to exemplify
before the world a great Repub-
, lies love for self-government and
it's impulse to stay the bloody
hand of oppression and conquest,
it embraced an opportunity Of
fered by the exigencies Of its
beneficent undertaking, to pos
sess itself of territory thousands
of miles from our coast, and to
conquer and govern, without pre-
tense of their consent, millions OF
resisting people-a heterogeneous
population largely mixed with
elements hardly within the light
of civilization, and all far from
the prospect Of assimilation with
anything American.
In one hand the party in power
held aloft before our people the
dazzling and misleading promise
of commercial advantage and the
glory of rivaling monarchial ex-
pansion, while with the other it
slaughtered thousands Of the alb
ject possessors Of the soil it COW
eted, and sent messages of death
and disease to thousands of
American homes.
In the widest exhibition of par
tisan rancor the Democratic party
cannot be accused of reactionary
opposition to any movement with
in the lines fixed by our national
mission and traditions that tends
