or country till the Laws being car
ried out become again the higher
habit of his life.
Is it easy7 No-because of the
selfishness that blinds the reason and
judgement and gives a distarted view
of thing and their value. BY every
milestone of our lives are cast the
useless things that at the moment
were so necessary to our happiness
and seemed even to be necessary to
life itself. The doll is sacrificed to
the books at school: the frivolities
and triumphs of the society belle are
sacrificed to the duties of the wife
and mother and through this enlarg-
ing of the ideal the growth comes.
Sacrifice is a necessary part in the
idea of all religions. Primitive man
was taught to sacrifice the life of ami
mails to God that his own life might
be spared. Later he learned TO sac
rifice of himself his hopes, his as
pirations, his fears, to God that
through him the world might be
benefited. Doing whatever we do
to the glory of God and not for our
aggrandizement-to Him and not
to ourselves is the Law of Sacrifice.
1t is the result that we must leave
in His hands and not TO take TO
ourselves the glory or the reward.
The result of our every act i, not
our own but it is God's "who work
eth in us to will and to do"
This m the nearest in the
| Christian faith to what is meant by
the sacrifice of wisdom in the Hindu
Scriptures, only they carry the
thought a step farther, To bring
the thought to the language familiar
to us from our infancy, we would say
in explanation OF the farther thought
that since God works in us ito will
and to do" that the one Self or God
acts in all men. From this it is easy
to see all men in the Self and thus in
God. Our conceit born of our west
ern world training does not prevent
our accepting the text in so far as it
applies to our own lives, but we do
not SO readily apply it to the acts
and lives of others. We are not so
sure of their attitude towards their
actions. We know all about ourselves
and Gods acting through us but we
are NAE sac sure" about our neigh.
bors.
But this is spirituality that we MAJ
see all beings in God equally with
ourselves.

1t would be hard to estimate the
importance TO this valley of the great
strike in the Charter Oak mine, as
set forth in another part OF this pa
per. The Charter Oak has always
been a prominent figure in the min
ing annals of this valley, and the
opening up of the mother lead there
will do moro to bring a railroad into
this part of the country than any
thing that has yet happened in this
remarkably rich mining district. 1t
means everything TO this town, as a
railroad to this point means the up
building of the Hot Springs and the

PHILOSOPHICAL NOTES.
Laws Of Higher Life.

A few mortals sometimes have a

ed when the world was created. They
are SURE that a universe Of their plan

which seem to hamper mankind IN
then onward progress and that ID few
additions such as they could suggest
would brighten up things materially.
They are almost certain when the

was not complete without the addi'
ton OF their voices to the heavenly
melody. 1t is youth and inexperlence

Last week we learned that the Law
of Duty fulfilled led IA man far on the
road to a realization of the Higher
Life. 1t will take years of practice
to make us willing TO take up the
path Of duty joyously because our
wills are so weak. Let them he rein
forced by an influx of the Divine
Will flowing through them and the
victory of the moment over our self
ish natures will become the habit
of our lives. Then following the
path Of Duty will he an easy matter.
But this must always be remember
ed that, the Path of Duty will finally
become the choice of our wills
and then our wills will become
free. So long as we choose evil,
the evil compels us, for it is out

which blinds us to the real self or

PRESS CLIPPINGS.


DENVER Republican,
Let Us be Sensible.
There is a reason for the parents of
boys to view the approach of the
Fourth Of July with something like a
feeling of dread, Sc are the
cases of fatal injuries caused by dan
gerous explosives on that day.
The mortality resulting from such
injuries equals that of some of the
battles that have passed into history
as important conflicts. From every
part of the United States reports are
received during the first few weeks
following the Fourth of July of seri-
Gus wounds and deaths caused by
cannon firecrackers and toy pistols.
The latter especially are dangerous
devices, an enormous number of
deaths from lockjaw resulting from
the use of such pistols being reported
every year.
1t would be idle to look for any
check to this evil without appropri-
ate municipal Legislation and regula-
ton. The sale of toy pistols and can
non f~irecrackers should be prohibited,
and restraint should be placed on the
use of certain other explosives that
help to make a Fourth of July cele-
bration hideous to people who are not
able to escape into the country.
The police should interfere for the
relief of the public and to prevent
those serious and in many cases fatal
injuries which so frequently result
from the use of dangerous explosives.

remains Of Enormous Animal Foune
in New York Village.
In the village Of Belvidere, west Of
this city. says Hornellsville IN. VI
dispatch to the Chicago Chronicle
have been discovered the bones Of q
mastodon. from, all appearances the
king of his race OF prehistoric animals.
The first bone discovered, which was
about four feet in length, was taken
to Bradford, and there DR.. James
Johnson. formerly connected with the
Smithsonian institution, pronounced It
to be q portion of a rib of a \masto.
Con. DR.. Johnson notified Alban
Stewart of the institution of the flnd
and he came to Belvidere. Together
the two scientists took a force of
workmen and began making excava
tons along the railroad.
Thus far three ribs and four verte
0rae have been unearthed. This
makes section of the animals back
about eighteen inches in length. The
largest mastodon ever unearthed is in
the Smithsonian institution, and the
vertebrate of his skeleton are five
inches in width, the whole animal be-
ing twenty-five feet long and thirteen
'eet in height.
Each Of the vertebrae of the animal
discovered near Belvidere is six
inches in width. thus making the ami
mai when alive the largest known al
this time. Compared to other masto
dons. he would stand like a Jumbo
compared to the ordinary elephant.
Mr.. Stewart is authority for tbs
statement that these are by far the
largest bones OF any animal ever dis
covered. He asserts that the ANNA
must have lived $4,000 years ago.
