THE SIN OF cOvEToUsNEss.
BY RALEIGH R1cHARDsoN WHITE.

BY RALEIGH RICHARDSON WHITE.
Covetousness is sin and and shame,
Among the righteous Of earth:
God gave it narie
He called it Idoatry at its birth.
1t is classed With "rnordinate Affections
And with lust, that do attempt
To Danish all holy reflection,
And dishohor God with contempt.
It is economy money to spend
! For Him, who gives us life
And refuse its power to lend
To Satan in the strife.
The gold of Colorado Is fine
If used to uplft men, at any cost,
But hearts from God decline
When gold is &orshiped; a soul is lost.
Your gold and Silver is cankered,"
If on this you set your desire.
The soul that on gold is anchored,
Will find that it ''eaeth as fire.
When death COMES to demand thee,
Gold, like satan, will prove to be-a liar.
Having your Ions girt with TRUTH
Accept Him whom "the Father hath sent
Covetouspess hath wrecked many youth;
His father, bad influence has lent.
coyetous woman is y-glassi
Through which satan looks to deeoy
The thoughtess around her; Alas!
For her sins God did Eden destroy.
1t is best, for parents to receive THE Savior,
And that without further delay; so.
The example would lead their children to Christ,
- day by day.
"The oye Of money is the root Of the evls'
Which covetousness hath wrought
Piercing the soul with MANY sorrows."
When death approaches, who can save the sout
from the: evil sought ,,-.. osc.l

A Remarkable Woman.

Very few people 1T the age of 86
years have bodily strength. even IL they
have the will and devotion, to give
their service actively 10 great public
movements as Is done by Susan
anthony. who has again been made
president Of the National Woman's
Suffrage Association ut its convention
In Portland. Oregon. Five years ago.
having reached the age of 80, Miss
Anthony voluntarily stepped aside, and
her return to the active presidency at
this time is notable tribute to her by
her associates and an indication Of her
ambition to die in the harness. Miss
Anthony is commanding figure
among the women of our land. and she
has the qualities for leadership such as
few women have ever possessed. Few
women have been so able tc stand the
great tax upon the vitality made by
constant speaking. writing. travelling
her office.
The late Frances Willard died at the
age of So, and Mrs. Livermore, although
she lived to be "a, largely ceased her
activities a score of years before her
death. In some respects Julia Ward
Howe is Americas grant old woman.
but in bodily strength and energy she
must yield place to Miss Anthony who
is less than year younger. Whatever
is to be said of the cause of woman
suffrage or the progress of the move
ment. all will agree that Miss Anthony
is one of the most remarkable women
of any age or country.

A Franklin commemoration.

The 18th day of January, 1906. will be
the zOOth anniversary Of the birth of
Benjamin Franklin. Already move
mcnt Is on foot for 4 general and some :
what elaborate observance Of the Occa-
sion, a movement in which special In
tcrest is being shown in Boston, which
was his birthplace. and Philadelphia
which was his home in later years.
Undoubtedly such a commemoration as
planned will do much to arouse gen.
cral appreciation of this great man and
his influence upon American history.
Certainly the mental and public activi-
ties Of Benjamin Franklin were 50
varied that many celebrations would b.
needed to do justice 10 them. The Uni
versity of Pennsylvania, which he
founded, libraries. inventors and men
of science, printers. editors and pub
fishers. the Masonic organizations and
many other bodies and vocations have
special interest in him and will take
occasion, next January, to pay special
honor to his memory. Some historical
students place the service of Franklin,
in efficiency, even before those of
Washington himself in the struggle
which resulted in winning of American
Independence; and that was only one
side of his many sided and always bril-
liant career.
It is an interesting fact. considering
that Franklin was SO closely identified
with the printing art and with letters.
that the site of his birthplace on Milk
street. Boston, is now covered by the
establishment of the good old Boston
Transcript. which has been one of New
England's best newspapers for close to
a century. Benjamin. Franklin was i
great man, one of the greatest of great
Americans, an inventor. philosopher.
author. wit, diplomat, statesman, patri-
OF. man vino excelled in every mani
festation Of his many sided genius.
Not only Boston and Philadelphia. put
the whole country should properly OBJ
scrve the 2OOth anniversary of his birth,
next January. Franklin revival will
have a wholesome effect upon the
America of today.

The Deathless Hope Of the Jews.

Once more the Zionist congress has
definitely declined the proffer of vast
territory in eastern Africa as site for
a settlement where the prosecuted
Jews in all parts of the world could
gather and found a new Jewish nation.
The home OF the Jewish heart is in
Palestine, and sentiment won the day
when the offer Of this land in Africa by
Great Britain came up for discussion.
All the ties of history. of tradition. and
of literature bind the Hebrew people to
the Land Of Abraham and David. and
The world cannot help admiring the
persistence with which they cling to
the hone that some day their people
nay be gathered back to the Jewish
fatherland.
For 20 centuries they have wandered
without rulers, without laws. lands or
even common language. but the hope
of possessing Palestine again and be-
coming once more a powerful nation
has never left their breasts. 1t may be
that the hope willnever be realized. but
il appears that it is still too strong to
admit any movement toward coloni-
cation in Africa or elsewhere, though
practical considerations would appear
to have advised the acceptance of the
English offer Of land in Africa. In the
meantime the prosecuted Jews of the
Old World are finding the United
States a land of hope and of opportuni-
ties which have long been denied them
i'm other lands.
