ter, makes a startling classification.
From standpoint of usefulness he
places the titled arlstocrat, the dude,
the tramp, in the same class, under the
generic term 'truck." This classiti-
cation will,doubtless offend the aris-

please the tramp. This firmly estab-
fishes the fact that external appear

A certain gentleman, prominent in
religious circles, after commenting on
his confidence in the Bible, was
beard to say that if the Bible said
that Jonah swallowed the whale he
would believe it. The utterance,
coming from the source it did, Jar
red us up considerably because we so
firmly believe in the principles that
lead us to prove all things and cling
to only the good. Let us toss even
the Bible into the crucible of lust
criticism and reason, then accept that
which survives. 1t would give tht
holy book a stable prestige, where
he blind puerility indicated by the
gentleman's remarks serves only to
confuse, and leads to nothing con-
vinciDg. A systematic consideration
of facts must precede stable belief.

The breath of health and happiness
Watt to sea your bark
To meet the wholesome storms of

May nothing come more dark.
