God cannot use conditional cense-
Grafton.
Character is the only basis of CLASH
fication.
Reason makes a good guide but a
poor god.
God has given voice to His love in
our Lord.
A summer resort is seldom a refuge
for the soul.
The secular soul must be like a
wingless bird.
The sermon that is preached down
never lifts up.
1t never pays to think that children
do not notice.
Time 10 the touchstone of many pre-
tentious things
Faith is always correct, but It can
never be formal.
Our faith may fail, but His faith
fulness will not.
The world will never be won by
warmed-up piety.
1t Is hard not to drift when you have
nothing to tie to.
Oppressors Of the poor are depres-
sors Of the people.
The world has found no gospel out
side Of the Gospels.
No man can keep a joy when he
keeps it to himself.
Faith finds new friends whenever it
listens to the Father.
When man is measured by money
God is gagged by gain.
1t is the soul and not the sentence
that makes the sermon.
The best labor union is when men
work together with God.
Power without prudence is the
cause of many wreck.
Some preaching is as effective as
blowing through a sieve.
Religion is not scheme for getting
on the blind side of God
A catalogue of the hypocrisies of
others is not key to Heaven.
God never honors the check of faith
that is not Endorsed by works.

GEISHAS AS THEY ARE.
Avaricious and Ambitious, They De-
light i'll lntrigues.

Avar1C1ouS ana Am D1tIouSs Ihey De-
light i'll lntrigues.
AS the pagan society Of Japan is or
ganized, the geishas are simply indis-
pensable, and they are not ignorant of
their advantages. For one thing, they
serve as social substitutes for those
wives, sisters and daughters who are
not allowed to be present at dinner
party in a Japanese nobleman's home,
much less in tea house. But, as a
matter of fact, many of the more re-
fined men lose their youthful enthu-
siasm over the feminine destinations of
the geisha, and tire of her falsetto
voice and her dance, which, as Mr..
Finck truly remarks, is rather panto-
mimic than saltatOrial.
These same refined men. however,
know that the geisha, quite apart from
her more sensuous merits, has a Pc
culiar value from her superb tact in
entertaining a guest by talk and chaff

Spelling a Terror,

The editor of the Boston Pilot, a paper that has come into the lime light with a rush the past week or two, was scheduled to lecture at the sGmmer school at Cliff Haven on
 Irish Wit and Humor'' last week. At the last moment it was given out that Editor Roach was indisposed and con sequently his lectures were not given
 Some of the visitors to the school were wondering whether his flop to Roose- welt after the papers fifty years or more of democracy had anything to do with his failure to keep his engage ment at the summer school. The Irish World, which the Pilot scored on more than one occasion for turning tail on the democrats, and lining up with the republicans, can have the laugh on the Pilot now. Editor Ford of the Irish World was often called a tulrn-coat and traitor for taking the stand the editor Of the Pilot has now taken in political matters. We are of the opinion that the paper that John Boyle O'Rei1ly made famous by it's defense of democracy, the down trodden, the working man, and for en- slaved humanity of whatever color or creed, will not receive the support from this class of people in the future that 1t has in the past.

Speaking of New York's now nearly completed subway, a writer in one of the recent magazines says the sub way forms a steel structure rectangu- lar in shape and built in an open tun' nel. The first step in its construction. throughout the greater part of it's length, was to tear up the surface of the street and excavate it to the depth required, which averages about twen- tY feet. Then there was spread upon the bottom of the excavation a solid floor of concrete, and on this floor there were erected at intervals of about five feet, running transversely to the line of the street, frames of steel beams securely riveted together. These frames are to the structure what ribs are to the body, and they are designed to take up the load of the street and the thrust of the side earth. Between these frames or ribs there is built a concrete wall and concrete roof, and between the tracks supporting the roof there are rows Of light steel columns. The stations are of two different types of construction, The City Hall park station, for i1l- stance, is formed of arched concrete tconstruction, while the roof of the Cir cle station is carried on steel columns and girders with concrete roofing turned in between the girders. III both cases the stations are well light ed by overhead sidewalk vault lights, | assisted by liberal use of incandes- cent electric lights. The finish of the walls is in glazed tiling, the colors being chiefly white, green and Ve1le- l tian red. The names Of the stations are shown in large glazed tile letters set in the panels of the wall, and they will be clearly distinguishable by the l DaSsengerS

If President Roosevelt shall offer his fellow citizens an explanation of why he has looped the loop from what he was to what he now wishes them to think htm-the silent, thoughtful and discreet statesman-he will, of course, reveal by what means he has rescued himself from the satanic arts of Loeb and reduced that matchless Mephistopheles to his proper place as simple secretary, writes Washing ton critic. And it is to be taken for granted also that Mir Roosevelt will endeavor to give satisfactory assur- ances that, in the unlikely event of his election, he will be able to resist a resumption by Loeb of his magical influence over the presidential mind and conduct. Perhaps the best guar 'anty Mir Roosevelt could furnish that, if accorded four years more in the White House. he would not loop the loop backward and become again his former self would be to discharge

T went up there to wipe out the Western Federation, and, by God, wiped them out,' are words employed by Bragadder- General Sherman Bell in announcing the result of the, military despotism he has been exercising in Colorado for several months. The campaign Bell has been carrying on against the members of the labor or- ganization known as the Western Fed eration forms the most disgraceful chapter in the history of any state in the Union, says an exchange. Cobra do to-day stands disgraced by the con- mission of acts that the rulers of no European country, outside of Turkey. would dare sanction. The governor of the state, after proclaiming martial law in certain mining districts, has permitted the military satrap whose words we have quoted above to tram pie brutally upon every right that be- longs to a man living in civilized community.

KIND OF CR1rTER A MULE IS.

An old negro who runs an express service on West Riddle street bought a mule the other day to help him in his business. The next morning came a call to haul trunk to depot. The other horses were out at the time and there was nothing to do but take the new purchase. In the mean time the prospective traveller was waiting, and when two hours had gone and no one had called for the trunk his impa- tience took him in the direction of the darky's office. Four blocks down the street he found the old man ,vainly tugging at the bridle of a refractory mule.
 ''Why, what's the matter, Ben?'' he asked. 'I telephoned you to call an hour ago" ..
 "Yassir," replied the old negro, "but yuh see, sah, dis yere's one ob dem kin Ter critters what takes an hour to make up deir min's to git stahted an' anud1er hour to be sorry dey make up their minis. s."-Baltimore Herald

KELLY ,REvOLTS.

Waterbury's we'll known townsman, Baker Thomas Kelly, one of the most progressive business men in the city, and one who has followed the republican party's lead for years, has become sick and dfsgusted with the men who are leading the party and who contro. legislation. He says they have been false to their trust and have not kept faith with the people. The republican administration favors the rich few, and keeps the tariff and duty up on articles that the ordinary mortal needs most. MT Kelly was warm admirer of Mckinley, and it is said he was the first man to bring his name forward for the presidency, but things have changed since the present occupant of the White House took the reins of government. With four at ST a bar rel, meat at the highest figure in years and every other necessity for keeping life in the human body at a figure that prevents many from get ting enough, from getting even their lawful share, Kelly thinks it about time to make change, and he is not alone in this way of thinking.

A THOUSAND WAYS OF LYING.

There are a thousand ways of lying, but all lead to the same end. 1t does not matter whether you wear lies, tell lies, act lies, or live lies, your character is ruined all the same.
 There is no more denporalizing inf1u- ence in modern life than the unnatural straining to seem other than we are. Nothing else so quickly lowers self respect, takes the fine edge off honor and bIunts the conscience as the sense of being sham, gilded fraud, or an CTS ideals, saps ambition, and takes the spring and joy out of living.

CRAZE UNDER WATER.
Find Their Food at the Bottom of
 Australian Pools.

Find Their Food at the BoLUOm oL
 Australian Pools.
 While on a cattle station in Vest ern Australia, Henry Taunton had an opportunity of seeing a remark able instance of the way in which animals can adapt themselves to their surroundings.
 "On the upper reaches of the river there was a large pool just fordable at most times, but in dry season very low,' he says. Among the horses making their run in the vicinity of this pool, an old mare and number of foals and yearlings used to come down every day in the long, dry sum- mer, when the herbage was seant and scorched into dryness. They waded into the pool until the water nearly reached their heads, and stood there for hours, diving to the bottom for a mouthful of succulent weeds, which they chewed at leisure with their dripping heads raised above the water.
 "The first time I witnessed this strange sight was during a dry sea- son, when I was riding with the over seer in search of some strayed stock. As we approached the pool my com panion bade me keep quiet if I de- sired to see something well worth looking at. As we rode quietly up to the pool I saw a group of horses standing in the water and disappear ing from time to time as they duck ed their heads below the surfaeell My wonder was soon at an end, when I saw one of their heads sud- denly come out with mouthful of dripping weeds. No sooner was this mouthful disposed of than the head disappeared in search of another.
 '"The overseer told me that during long drought some five or six years previous when hardly yestige of feed was left on the run, and bush fires had laid bare the sand plains, 1.-the old mare had discovered that there was plenty of luscious feed at the bottom of the pools, which could be procured by diving for 1t; and, having once put her discovery into practice, she continued to do out of 1 preference what she had been driven | to do by necessity.
 s"rhe several generations of foa1s which she had reared had all follow l ed her example, although none of the full grown horses had joined the am l phibious group. Here, then, seemed to be new variety of horse in evo-

Third Larger Than in Winter, When
 He is entertained Without Cost.
 'I can't afford to stay in town in the summer" said a man on the Sandy Hook boat. ''It costs too much-much more than in the winter time. A single man in the city has expenses in summer that he never has to meet in winter.
 Tn winter I'm likely to be asked to dinner three nights a week any how. That, of course, costs nothing. A man is so welcome at dinners that he need do no more than call on his. hostess or be polite to her daughters at dances. In summer there is mo dining out, and there at one swoop comes the expense of three dinners a week.
 "Then there are other outlays not necessary in winter. If I dine at the club, somebody always proposes to go to q roof garden or the theater. I us- ualIy go because I don't want to go home early.
 ''In this. way I have already paid four timesNthis summer to see one show which under ordinary circum- stances I shouldn't think of seeing. once at my own expense. I haven't doubt that should have been talk ell on some theater party during the winter and that once would have been enough.
 "Then when it is not the theater, it is a roof garden or billiards all the evening. That expense would not be necessary in winter, for I should cer- tainly be invited somewhere every evening and would not be called upon to pay.
 "The out of town visits at the week end do not compensate for the amount spent during the week. Pos sibIy if a man went for a long stay, it might be q saving, but as it is country house visiting is not econo- mical.
 "Men. are likely to drink more in summer than in winter, and there is more expenditure there if one stays in town. Reckoning up winter and summer expenses, it will be found that life in town costs q third more i'll summer than it does i'll the winter timee'
