ONE-sIDED DEVELOPMENT.
By Rev. DR.. Polemus II. 6

The Bible demands a holiness that is
III the discharge Of ones duties toward
God while one is utterly neglectful of
obligations to men is to furnish an ex-
ample Of the unturned cake-burned
on one side dough on the other and
good for nothing on either.
Religious HE is two sided. We owe
something to God and we owe some
thing to man and we cannot be true to
God if we are false to men. We can
not please God while we are wronging
men. We cannot offer acceptable sacri-
flee to God while we are robbing men.
The prayers of a man who uses false
weights and measures are an abomina-
ton to Jehovah. Jesus declared very
plainly that men who deyOured wild
ows's houses and for a pretense made
long prayers should receive the greater
damnatiOn. 1t is impossible to truly
love God while we hate our neighbor
No amount OF genufections of formal
worship will make amends for the alb
Sencc Of truth, righteous dealings. char
ity and vital piety.
The man who is very pious in church
on Sunday and very worldly for the six
remaining days of the week is a splen-
did example of the unturned cake.
Those who sing for God on the first
day Of the week and SIN Tor themselves
on every other surely belong to the
class Of which the old prophet speaks
these words. If you are going to be Il
servant of Jesus Christ you must carry
his law into your business life Relig-
ion is not cloak to put on; it is a life
to be lived

IN ANGER
AT AMERICANS,
San Francisco Labor Unions Move to
Exclude the Mikado's Subjects
Wounds Deeply.

TOXIC, Oct. 22.-It would be difficult
to overestimate the gravity of the situa-
ton caused by the anti-Japanese feeling
that has been given voice to in the
United States. During nineteen years the
japanese press has not been so agitated
against Americans.
At Il dinner Saturday night. attended
by $50 bankers and business men. at the
Imperial hotel, deep feeling was ex-
pressed that America should regard with
Indifference the acts that are tantamount
to declaration of a racial war
Childrens Treatment Resented.
Little was said regarding the Amer
in Manchuria, the killing of japanese
Sealers. the murder of Il japanese bank
president in San Francisco, attacks by
John d. Rockefeller on Japan's CONNER
cial treachery, the Hawaiian exclusion
policy. public insults to Prof Omorik,
all of which incidents nave occurred
within three months, but the exclusion
of japanese children from the public
schools in California cuts this child low
ing nation to the quick.
There is evidence that the government
regards the situation as extremely Sc
riUus 1t has taken measures to calm
the press and discourage mass meetings
that have been called to adopt retalatory
measures.
Government Is Pacific.
The Jill ShimpO prints long anony-
nous article. which, however, is known
to emanate from member of the gov
eminent. attempting to explain away
the acts which have offended the Japa-
nese. The imperial government recog-
nizps that opposition TO the Japanese
now is local. but opposition politicians
hold that it IS not Il local manifestation,
and they point out that the American
authorities have taken decisive steps to
define the relations between the two
countries.
Prompt reputation of the anti-Japa-
npse sentiment by the United States at
large is necessary to avert Il crisis here
that would result in the destruction of
the historic friendly political, financial
and commercial relations between the
two nations.
Cause of School Issue.
SAN FRANCISCO, Cal. Oct %
What the Japanese have construed as
the wholesale exclusion of japanese
children from San Francisco schools is
the recent agitation begun in this city
for more complete segregation of Japa-
nese and Chinese in SEPARATE schools.
This agitation was started by an organ
ization calling itself the Japanese and
Corean Exclusion league, which draws
it's members largely from labor unions.

LABEL MUST TELL
WHAT ONE BUYS,
New Food Regulations Not So Strict as
Planned at First, but Demand
the Truth.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Oct. 20.-Sec-
rotary Wilson today promulgated the
regulations under which the recently
enacted pure food and drug law will be
enforced.
Ingredients of packages shall be stated
on the labels so the purchaser may know
precisely what he is buying.
In the matter of coloring, the require
ment is made that no ingredient known
to be deleterious to human health shall
be used by manufacturers. This regu-
lation applies with particular force to
the manufacture of candies.
Authorizations, particularly of drugs. is
prohibited, but standard drugs will not
be considered adulterated provided that
they are branded so as to show their
actual strength or purity.
To Ward Off Preservatives.
Poisonous or deleterious preserva-
tives shall only be applied externally and
shall be of a kind that will not per-
meate to the interior of the product and
the preservative must be of such a
character that, until removed, the food
products are inedible. Misbranding of
food or drug products is guarded against
particularly.
The label on every product must bear
the name of the product, the place of
manufacture and must show whether
the article is a compound, mixture or
blend; and must designate the ingre-
dents and proportions in the case of
drugs and foods. The use Of any false
or misleading statement, design or de-
vice on the label is specifically pro-
hibited.
Differences in Commission
1t is known that some differences of
opinion arose among members of the
commission respecting important details
of the rules. AS originally drafted the
rules practically prohibited the use of
generic names as applied to products of
American manufacture. For instance,
champagne, as distinguishing q kind of
wine, could not be used in connection
with an American wine of that kind, be-
cause it was held to be misleading, if not
actually deceptive. Geographical names,
generally, as applied to a food or drug
products, or to wines and liquors were
not permitted to be used under the regu-
lations as prepared by the commission.
When the regulations were submitted
. to the secretaries of the three depart
ments for approval, some changes were
, made in them of a very important char
names, for instance, was provided for in
cases where it was thought the names
were generic or distinctive. 1t was pro-
vided, however, that it should be indi-
Gated on the package containing the
product that it was of American manu-
facture.
Thus, champagne is required to be
labeled American champagne, or Cali
fornia champagne, so that the purchas-
ers, while he knows that he is getting
certain kind of vine, knows also that
! the wine is made in America and not
in France. The regulations apply to 9th
er products in q similar way.
1t was the effort of the commission to
insure to the purchaser of any food or
drug product absolute purity.

EXPLANATION OF ACTIVITY IN

BALTIMORE, Sept. 19.-There is
in Baltimore a disposition among
railroad and financial men to credit
the rumor that the Baltimore and Ohio
railroad will acquire control of the
Reading. Suggestions that the latter
company is about to ecu control of
the Baltimore and Ohio are regarded
as visionary, for they plainly put it
up to the tail to wag the dog. The
tail may be willing. but as neal as
can be a%scertained the dog isn't. In
other words. the Baltimore and Ohio
holdings of Reading exceed the Read
ing holdings of Baltimore and Ohio.
Since the sale of the Baltimore and
Ohio stock by the Pennsylvania there
have been many theories offered as
to the purchaser. One OF these was
that the Reading was the buyer. an
other that the sale was not bona hde,
and a third that Hartman had bought
the stock.
About this time Reading stock be.
gan to take on an unexpected and un-
natural activity. On Friday of last
week on Wall street Reading was
traded in to the extent of $4,000
shares-more than one-thlrd OF the
total business of the day. Sales since
then have been large enough to ex-
cite comment. Brokers at the time
expressed the opinion that some power
full intrest was after the stock. AS
Reading pays only 4 per cent. divi-
dends, and at it's present price yields
only 2.60 per cent. upon the invest
ment, it is difficult to explain its rise,
except on the theory that there are
developments under way which will
Justify the continued rise OF the stock.
Among the reasons assigned for the
advance was that the road was to fig
