this year it will be impossible to carry democratic candidate can expect to have in New York is comparatively small, therefore, when the. democrats throughout the country count on carry election of their president they should not be fnisled by enthusiastic party managers, or believe that the instruc- tions' of a state convention mean sue cess at the polls. or that a nomination by a national convention is equivalent to election.
 "The party must poll it's entire strength if it hopes to succeed, and will MT. Parker command this?
 Tt is we'll known that MT. Bryan vigorously opposes Judge Parker's nomination, and he. speaks not alone for himself but hundreds of thousands of faithful democrats throughout the land, and he gives reasons. for his op- position which are rot those of preju- dice but represent the feeling of thou sands upon thousands of democratic voters.
 "The selection of a candidate this year should not be a question of geo. graphy. An effort should be made to find someone upon whom the party throughout the nation can unite; If possible one that would receive the dp |. proval of those whose views MT. Bryan represents, one who can also command the respect and confidence. of those who left the party in 1896 reluctantly and now desire to be again counted as active democrats. The candidate sb ould be a man whom everyone who has been a democrat for the last genera ton can support without being obliged to humiliate himself, be he a believer in the gold doctrine or the silver doe Urine. This can be accomplished by laying aside prejudice, ignoring per sonal ambition, disregarding geograph- ical lines and making an honest effort to secure such a candidate.
 That the candidacy of Hon. Edward c. Wall offers these advantages has not yet been denied by a single one of those who have essayed to oppose his nomination, and the fact that he is just such a candidate Is an invincible argument why Wisconsin democrats should instruct their delegation for tim.'

ship is the outward expression. They may think they believe. but actually they do not believe in the religion they profess. They are not convinced that their fate for all eternity depends on faith in its dogmas and obedience to it's obligations.
 How to get men to go to church? Let there be revival of true and gen. uine religious faith, and the churches will not be large enough to hold them. But no such revival can be started un- til Christian ministers themselves turn from criticism of Christianity to actual and fervent belief in i' as the only means of salvation; until they quit be- ing religious politicians and become wholly soul savers.

MORE WISDOM FROM CHICAGO
 CLUB WOMEN.

Chicago is famous for many excel lent institutions, one of the most ad- mirable of which is it's "clubwomen. Far remote are the old days when wo- men looked with aversion upon clubs, and insisted that their good men should stay at the domestic hearth. sing lullaby over their infant pledges, or, in dressing gown and green carpet slippers snore over the evening paper. Themselves enriched with the larger life of the clubs, the Chicago "club- women" are tolerant and kindly to the men folk. Thus pr. Julia Holmes Smith encourages man to wander from his own fireside and repeats this var.a- ton of Housekeeping youth had ever homely wits:
 "Men who stay at home every night aren't good for anything; it is my ob- servation for a quarter of a century. l side with the men on this question of organiza tions. l don't like to see man at home every night, with one foot on the cradle. Clubs and lodges are good things. The man whose at tention is given all day to buying or selling, to contracts, to figures or to other routine of business is in rut. He needs change. In the evening, if he goes to his lodge or to his club, the merchant is given an opportunity to meet the banker, the lawyer meets the doctor, the grocer meets the architect, and the all find recreation in it..
 The young women of Chciago "are favorable to mems clubs and lodges. So vanishes the palaeolithic jest about going to the lodge" There is a little scratch to the vanity of men in this female readiness to get rid of them, to be rejoiced rather than grieved by their absence. Some sociologists hold that highly civilized society is return ing to savage conditions, the men as- -sociating with men at the club, the women associating with women at the club. We return to make our farewell bow to Dr. Smith. who tells us that the woman "who does not enter wo- mans club life is a narrow woman, as rule"
 Mary NJ. Barteline likewise approves

mems clubs and calls them "all right" Still, she doesn't approve of a mans being required by them to be out every night in the week" Here is a point which ought to be settled by some au- thority to which all good men would bow, and the Federation of Women s clubs is the only such authority. How many nights out" in a week is mar ried man entitled to? No man of spirit would consent to less than two Three is a conservative estimate. Four is a plurality. Would five be consid cred too much? In the absence of ir- reversible decisions on these questions. some "clubmen" may. innocently, take six. But all conservatives will regard seven as rather too liberal an allow ance.
 One dictum of the Chicago "club wo- men" seems a little strange. 'I don't believe in women playing cards in the daytime says Mary M. Bartelme. Ev- en pr. Julia Smith doesn't regard whist parties in the morning and euchre par ties in the afternoon as "defensible." Is there such narrowness even in oeies- tial minds? There is no necessary and vital connection between cards and candlelight. Many happy American homes are furnished from turret to foundation stone with prizes won at daylight euchres. The Chicago "club women." liberal as they are, are not liberal enough.-New York Sun.

Mishna (Yoma viii-1) to signify total
abstinence from all kinds of food and
qualification of other bodily desires.
The reason for this explanation is
easily fathomed. The chief source OF
sin IS qualification of bodily appetites
and the best way of afflicting self is
to show. by self-control, our ability
to suppress them. Fasting is such an
attempt.

is not one in which prayers for the
soul and salvation Of the dead are re-
cited, but Gods justice and mercy is
extolled and His name magnified.
AS for all other holidays, the music
for this day is traditional, and ex-
presses as faithfully as the prayers,
the desire for atonement. The open

service is known to everyone and its
beauty is admired. Some peculiar
