Chairman Shonts of the isthmian canal

lows:

my house on the telephone last evening.

who was with me at the time answered the
call. After listening moment Mr.. Bishop
said:
There is not a word of truth in it, but
Mr. Shonts is here and will speak for him
self Mr.. Bishop then said: a New York
newspaper correspondent says: I have a
story to the effect that Mr.. Shonts has
said that unless he can have full powers
in canal matters with accountability only
to the President he will resign the chair
manship of the commission " To the cor
respondent l authorized Mr.. Bishop to say:
There is not word of truth in II. My po-
sition is exactly the same today that 1t was
when came with the commission
with regard to the public rumors OF
friction between Secretary Taft and my
self l wish to say emphatically that they
are absolutely without foundation.

Drinking Men at a pi.count.

81 will hazard the statement" said
President Joseph Ramsay, of the Wa
bash Railroad, in an address recently,
that every railroad represented upon
this platform has strict rules prohibit
ing drinking on or off duty. and some
forbid their train and engine men
boarding in houses where liquor is sold,
and their rules are enforced by the
discharge Of those violating them
Yet there are young men who say
they see no harm in it. If they want
to drink, they argue, what business is
1t of anyone else? 1t is the most i'm
portant business of any interest that is
imperiled. The young man who drinks
makes himself unreliable. Society has
a right TO demand of him the most eff
cient service he can render. He has
no right wilfully to diminish that eff
cheney.
Employers are coming to realize that
the public has right to expect from
them not merely good machinery but
the service of good men. So the rail-
roads will not employ drinking men
if they can help it. The banks want
sober clerks. Great buildings exclude
drinking jaintors and elevator men.
Even saloonkeepers prefer bartenders
who do not drink.

same course he is diminishing his mar

The relationship of alcohol and con-
sumption was discussed at the last
meeting of the National Association
for the Prevention of Consumption.
which took place in London. The be-
lief advanced by so many famous sur
geons that intemperance is an active
agent in the spread of consumption has
found a powerful supporter in Sir Will
lam BrOadbent. He declared thai de-
ficient food, overwork. stuffy rooms
and alcoholic excess We're the principa!
factors in the progress of the disease.
And then, in impressive tones, he en-
phaslZed his belief that the greatest
and most potent of these was alcoholic
excess.
Expectoration, he continued, caused
its spread more than anything. If the
whole of the eXpectoration could be de-
stroyed at one moment the disease
would be stamped out. Splitting must
be stopped by public opinion and by
punishment Wherever cases of con
sumption We're known the authorities
should be notified and the dwellings
disinfected.
In 1902, he said, the disease claimed
10000 victims, as against $1,000 In
1892 and 900 in 1888. This reduction
had been brought about in spite OF the
increase in population and the over
crowding in cities.

For Christ to dwell in us means
that much else must not dwell in us
Whatever would displace Christ.
III we would receive the Christ. we
must first receive the Bible through

OF Christ and show them to us.
There is no such thing as an in.

ing Christ
Whatever you lack. whatever with
a godly mind you want. you will find
in Christ as certainly as you find oxy.
gen in fresh air.
Suggestions.
This one thought, fully appre-
hended and followed out, would make
perfect Christian: ! must make my
life fit for the indwelling of Christ.
If Christ lives in us, we shall be
pleasant for others to live with.
Let us make our hearts not only
places where Christ will endure to
live. but places where He will de-
light to live.
we
can dwell in Christ and He in us.
Live each truth out, and you will
readily understand it.
Illustrations.
No king will remain in a house
where he is not the chief guest. And
Christ is the King of kings.
Some guests are a constraint upon
the household, but Christ in our
hearts introduces us to ourselves and
to one another.
We have company behavior and
home manners" Christ recognizes
only the latter
Where heat is, cold cannot dwell:
where you would have Christ, you
must Danish sin.
Outdoor Work.
1t Is a beautiful custom to hold an
occasional prayer meeting out of
doors. A sunrise or sunset meet
ing on hilltop is especially impress
sive. Our societies do not as often
as they should hold their socials out
doors, with outdoor games.
Some societies have organized En-
deavor cycle clubs. that travel on
their wheels and hold evangelistic
services In neglected places.
Christian Endeavor flower gardens
have been made in many places to
furnish all the flowers needed for the
church.
An Endeavor field,day might be
held once a year, with a series of
athletic contests carefully planned
and carried out with spirit. Fix it
for some patriotic holiday
Christian Endeavor walking clubs
will strengthen the body, develop de-
lightful companionships, and bring
the society into all the most beauti.
full and interesting spots of the com.
munity.

SUNDAY, JULY, NINTH.
The lndwelline Christ: Col. 2; e-1o;
8: sic.

8: sic.
In this lesson Paul exhorts the
Colossiap Christians to stalwart liv-
ing, based upon their experience Of
salvation. AS they had received
Christ so they were to walk, to be
rooted. to grow and to be built up.
They were to avoid being spoiled
by worldly philosophy. This they
were to do by being possessed by the
"lndwelling Christ" who was the
Godhead. Possessed by him, they
were to be complete in all the plenti-
tude of his gracious gifts. In the Sec
ond selection from the same epistle
they were to demonstrate this com
pleteness" by putting away certain
sins very common at that day. The
fact of an indwelling Christ was to
be evidenced by the putting off Of
the old man and the putting on OF
the new. And this new man was to
be a renewed man bearing the image
Of Christ. The Christian is to in
carnate Christ, even as he incarnat-
ed the Father.
Jesus taught that the kingdom OF
God was within u.s. that 1t was a
subjective kingdom of righteousness
peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost.
The kingdom set up in the heart Of
man is a personal indwelling of a
personal Christ. Christ is formed
In us the hope of glory" He abides
in us and we are one with him.
Other systems of religion are con-
tent to preach precepts; but Christ
insists that we possess his life and
spirit. No man is a christian" in
the scriptural sense until he incarn-
ates the spirit and life of Jesus,
The tongue is an index of the
heart The speech manifests the
spirit. Lying is to give place to
truthfulness, filthy communications
to cleanliness and purity, blasphemy
to prayer, and anger to kindness and
charity The most careful watchful'
ness of our language will be one
characteristic of new heart.
There will be a radical change In
the life of man who has been con-
verted. He will go to different
places; he will associate in different
company; he breaks off some habits
and forms others. He ceases to do
evil and learns to do we'll He Is not
only negatively one who does not dc
evil things, but he is positively one
who does good. He initiates his
Master in going about doing good
He is not content to stop SHINING; ha
begins to perform good works.
Behind the words and actions lie
the motives, the spirit of the life
Here will the indwelling Christ
manifest his presence The spirit
will become gentle and sweet and
pure. The unseen influence OF the
life will be wholesome and healthful
Constant companionshlp with the
Christ within will transform the mar
into Christlikeness of spirit. Others
will be impressed with tho fact that
he has been with Jesus and learned
OF him. This blessed presence and
indwelling is the privilege ard duty
OF every soul.

Walruff's brewery in Lawrence.
Kan. was valuable piece of property.
Prohibition made 1t useless for tha I
purpose, and the owner sold the build

the twelve men he had employed out
of that into some other industry Some
people called it "a business calamity"

the twelve men 1t had employed But
soon the big building was put TO use
again as shoe factory. and now. with
about the same capital that the brew
cry had, 1t employs one hundred sober
operatives.
Supposing the brewers twelve men
to have been all sober citizens, let us
compare the business record of the
brewery and the shoe factory, allow
ing that the men have the same wages,
which we will put at an average of ten
dollars a week.
The brewers men had their S120 a
week, or S9540 n year to expend in
house rent or homes. food. clothing
dred shoemakers have $1,000 a week,
or $4,000 year to expend in the same
way. The brewery men rented at mos;

money from other customers that for
merly went for beer. More than eighty
times as much money goes. from that
factory alone, into the tills of the trad
ers and workers of that town as used
to go there from the brewery.
The shoes that are turned out harm
no one. They serve a useful purpose.
preserve health, and give comfort and
pleasure. They are among the neces-
stiles Of civilized life.

The brewery needed a jail. a police
court, poorhouse, lunatic asylum and
watchmen. Not even twenty shoe fac
tories would ever need any one of
these where there is no brewery nor
grog shop.
From official figures we learn that
there are in the United States 1S45
breweries with $4,000 employees. Ii
converted into factories they would
probably give employment to ten times
as many persons and would pay an
nually in wages about S1S0000,000 to
the $1S,000,000 now paid by the brew
cries.
The liquor traffic restricts industry
and brings poverty. Temperance pro-
notes business and brings prosperity.
