TIKI large cities in the United
States are Interesting in population
very fast while the country districts
and small towns ih many localities
are decreasing In population. These
are conditions that shotild not be,
and we believe they will be changed
as scientific farming becomes more
common. The idea. that has been
SO prevalent, that atty stupid
head" Gould operate farm, has
driven many bright, ambitious
boy from the farm to some other
occupation that carried him to the
tity. The fact that ah education
is necessary to success ON tile farm
is presenting itself to the boys, and
the time is coming when a course
in an agricultural college will be
considered as Necessary to equip
boy for the farm as course In a
law school is to equip him for the
practice of law or iii a medical
college for the practice of medicine.
The farrn offers as n1any opporthni-
ties for making money as the pro-
LESSONS do, and it takes just as
many brains to be a successful
farmer as it does to be d successful

Abiding In Christ, says F. B. Meyer

Abiding In Christ, says F. B. Meyer,
does not mean that you must always
be thinking about Christ. You are In
d house, abiding in its inclosure or
beneath it's shelter, though you are not
always thinking about the house itself;
but you always know when you leave
it. A man may not always be think
ing of his sweet home circle; but he
and they may nevertheless be abiding
in each others love. And he knows
instantly when any Of them are In
danger Of passing out of the warm
tropic Of love into the artic regions of
separation. So we may not always be
sensible Of the revealed presence Of
Jesus; we may be occupied with many
things Of necessary duty, but, as soon
as the heart is disenghged, 1t will be
come aware that he has been standing
near all the whilej and there will be q
bright flash of recognition, a repetition
of the Psalmist's cry, "Thou art near,
o, Lord" All, life of bliss, lived under
the thought of his presence, as dwellers
In Alpine valleys live beneath the
solemn splendor of some grand, snow.

THE penalty for perjary is severe

attached for the punishment OF

The science Of meteorology has not
yet taught nan what a day may bring
forth in the way Of weather. Farming
operations are clouded with uncertain
~ from seed time to harvest, and from
the nature of the case the most en-
lightened and conservative tiller of the
soil is compelled to gamble in "fu-
lures" much as does the Spectator in
the wheat pit. Unfortunately, too, his
stake is often his all. Delayed or pre-
mature frost, too much or too little
rain, to say nothing Of the visitations
of creeping or flying destroyers, al
ways threaten him with loss or ruin
and keep him forever guessing. He
must bet his crops on the presence or
absence Of favorable conditions, an in
exorable fact that in the course of ages
may have had something to do with
the ingrained gambling habit which be-
sets mankind everywhere.

II sometimes strikes one that on,
civilization Is a sort of DR.. Jekyll and
Mr.. Hyde affair. There are SO MANY
contradictions in 1t. 1t is at once ma.
terialistic and altruistic. 1t is sordld
and sanity. 1t makes paupers and
cries over them. 1t is an age Of loot
n law. 1t Is an age of Doodle and
Deadfc virtues. 1t steals from the wild.
ow and orphan and gives the proceeds
to libraries and universities. 1t is An
age of frenzied finance and of hospitals
and homes for the aged and children.
n all the while the search for moral
~ttenne goes on 1t is an age of
publicity and Of challenge and of pro
test. 1t is an age Of aspiration for
public and private virtue and of the
ceaseless discussion Of ethics. Never
before have public crimes been so glib
Deted. Never before have the ills of
society been so hung up TO the public
gaze. Lawson is telling about fren-
zied finance and Russell of the beef
trust and Lincoln Steffens of the
shamelessness Of cities and Ray Stan
nard Baker of the rule of corporations
Every magazine has its corps of scav-
engers digging at the filth. And the
newspapers seek most Of all for the
headline that tells of graft. The vic
tins of u civilization are ever be.
fore our eyes. And we go on making
more victims. How can these things
be? Is this money-grabbing society
OF ours the society that builds blind
asylums and homes of refuge? How
can the two dispositions go together?
Easily enough. Everyone has In him
divergent impulses, and society is but
an aggregation of individuals. The
question is, will the better or the evil
desire prove the stronger? Can we
doubt which? If the desire for self
publication is not greater than the
propensity to have and to hold. our
condition is sorry indeed. 1t is the
old. old struggle-with this difference:
The day of flourishing evil and wrong
is also the day of publicity and pro-
test-the day of desire for better
things.

There is no sound reason why the
preachers should be better men than
lawyers or financiers. The real obi
cations of all men are equal. But the
preachers are in trying positions, be-
cause they assume to represent a high
standard Of morality. They profess
religion. Lawyers and financiers can
say they do not pretend to be better
than other men. To a certain extent
they plead guilty. They claim the
merit Of not being hypocritical. The
world is quite in agreement that the
hypocrite is detestable. The charge of
insincerity and hypocrisy goes to the
weak nerve of the preacher and his
misfortune is that the world is still
so skeptical as to the rule Of goodness
that under the charge he is placed at
once under suspicion. Relatively he is
somewhat in the situation of the rich
man who is charged with questionable
methods in his business of accumula-
ton.
