Bishop Grafton was born in Boston.
He began his religious work in Eng
land as an evangelist He returned to
the United States in 1872 and remained
in Boston, where he was pastor of the
Church of the Advent, until 1888, when
he was elevated to the epiScOpacy. He
has taken the vow of celibacy. He be-
lieves in the Real Presence. He cele-
brates mass i'll a manner very near to
the ceremonies of the Roman Catholic
church and in his own diocese wears
the mitre and other canOnicals of
Roman bishop. He is possessed of
unique personality and his teachings
and plans have been the subject of
much discussion all over the country.
He cherishes the hope of the unity of
evangelical churches along high church
lines so nearly approaching Roman
Catholicism that it would be difficult
| to differentiate between the Roman
and Episcopal churches.
Bishop Grafton is now about IS years
old He is rather feeble physically.
He is wealthy in his own right and has
built up one of the finest cathedrals
| in America There are six priests di-
rectly under Bishop Grafton. They al
| dress the bishop as my lord" A
| cathedral school has been established
and a school for choir boys.
Bishop Grafton does not think there
| is danger of the high and low church
es separ ating- "Our observances of
high SERVICE" he says, simply show
the catholfcity and comprehensiveness
of the Episcopal church. There is an
agreement on essentials between high
and -ow churchmen and federation on
matters of opinion, instead of disturb
ing elements. We are divided like the

feeling right the same person can earn
two dollars and a half. 1t is by OBJ
serving the rules of health that the
extra so cents is made and made easier
than the first two dollars. We often
see strong, robust-looking men and
women break down in middle life. One
of the principal causes is the breathing
of foul air. 1t is better to burn an ex-
ira ton of coal than to give that
amount of money to the doctor or pa
tent medicine vender, but by proper
ventilation and by the addition of
moisture a house may be made perfect
ly comfortable and be thoroughly well
ventilated without costing a cent extra.
1t is all in making the right arrange
ment and following the right plan viii
careful supervision every day. Eternal
vigilance is the price of good health
and comfort.

Present-Day Ideas.

The ideas of the present time are
high and clean, and never before
have public men been so quick to re-
great capacity to legislate wisely. On
the other hand, observes the New
York Sun, censure has never been
more extravagant and needless. But
it must be distinguished from the
criticism that is responsible and help
full. Much chaff is mixed with the
grain of sound opinion, and the dust
raised has an effect that confuses
standards and clouds regulations.
The man in the street who does not
think for himself and takes his views
from others in good faith is hardly
to be blamed if he believes that the
heart of things is rotten and the re-
public degenerate. Well, he should
read history bit, dig in the muck"
of Credit Mobilier and star route
times, open the dust-covered volumes
of the civil war period, or go back
to the haloed days of the revolution.
The most striking and timely observa-
ton of Mr.. Hughes at the Page din
ner was this: I'VE have great need
of men who can think sanely, who
have sense of proportion, who are not
carried away by desire to reap the
rewards of criticism The public is
prone to grid at them when they do
speak, and they may have to sit on
the back seat awhile until the world
comes around to them. But in the

try's. More power to themi May

ACCUSED OF HEREsY
BISHOP GRAFTON ATTACKED By

Wisconsin Episcopal Prelats Charged
with Recommending Prayers to

Milwaukee, Charles Chap
man Grafton, head of the Episcopal
church in the diocese of Fond du Lac,
Wis, who is charged with heresy by
Rev William Austin Smith. rector OF
ST. Paul's Episcopal church in Milwau-
kee, is one of the foremost high church
men in this country In a letter to the
Living Church, Rev. Mr. Smith writes:
..One reads with amazement the let
ter of Bishop Grafton, entitled Prayer
During Trial (the heresy trial of DR..
Crapsey), in the Living Church 1t is
not its panic stricken temper, its wall
against broad churchmen which con-
found. 1t is the polytheistic litany
which he borrows from 1914 to put up
on the lips of twentieth century
churchnen.
IF Bishop Grafton will permit the
choice, many of us prefer, if we must
utter a pagan prayer, one of those
beautiful petitions of Socrates adj
dressed to Pan and all the other
GODS This whine of the bishop to st.
Mary, all the holy patriarchs, prophets,
apostles, confessors and virgins halts
pathetically in comparison. The Greek
pagan had the merit of dignity and
spiritual poise.
1T is almost amusing, were it not
tragic, tc see an American bishop tum-
bling into heresy while casting missiles
at heretics and storming heaven in be-
half of the faith once delivered"
Here are some extracts from the
prayers to which Rev. Mr.. Smith OBJ

Craze for the Rostrum.

The cable from St Petersburg, re-
ferring to the douma, speaks of ''the
all-prevailing craze for the rostrum."
1t is no bad sign for members to want
to speak. Many of them have some
thing to say, and tempting oppor-
tunity-the first of its kind in their
1ives-seems to present itself. Let us
try to sympathize with men so placed,
says the Washington Star. At the end
of nearly a century and a quarter of
popular government we have a John
Wesley Gaines in our douma. In time
this spirit will pass. Wait until the
Russians learn the trick of inatten-
ton; of reading newspapers, or writ
ing letters, or retiring for luncheon,
while the talkfest is in progress, and

listed as private. He was Short

declared between this country and
Spain, and although he was ready to
graduate from the school, he quit and
became a member of battery A, of this

After his service with the battery,
Maurice Shearer went to Ohio and
there served as manager for con-
tracing company. The martial spirit
had seized on him, however, and one
day his father received a letter to the
private in the marine corps, at Buffalo,
in the hope of working up to a COM
mission. In the examination through
which he obtained his commission as
second lieutenant, he stood fourth in
a large class, and he stood equally
high in an examination he has recent
ly taken at the end of a postgraduate
course at Annapolis.
few days ago he was ordered to
report at Washington and was there
informed that he was to have charge
