"DoctripaI Sermons

The Lutheran Observer (Philadel-
phia) inquiries whether the "substitu-
ton of lesser themes than those of the
Gospel and the Sensational handling
Of the Gospel Itself" may not be the
very things that are keeping many peo-
pie from the church. 1t asks:
May not the pulpit be mistaking the
real demand of those whom it would
win? Is ii, after all, really certain that
what they want to hear when they
come to church is a discussion of art
or literature or economies or some top
ic Of present public interest which Is
occupying whole columns in the secu-
lar papers every mornings"
This paper in answering its own
questions quotes the words OF DR.
George Hodges, dean Of the Episcopal
Divinity School at Cambridge, to the
students of Berkeley Divinity School.
The Dean said:
DO not be misled by any rumor to
the effect that the congregation is
weary of doctrinal sermons. There
never was a time when the doctrin9l
sermon was more welcome than it Is at
present or more imperatively needed.
1T is true that men are impatient OF
dogmatic sermons. The dogmatic SER
mon is based on the ground Of author-
ity; the doctrinal sermon is based on
the ground of reason. No confidence
In the grace of orders will persuade
thoughtful persons OF years of expert
ence 10 listen with appreciation while
young men in surplices tell them what
they ought to believe, without telling
them why they ought TO believe 1t. Peo-
pie are eager for doctrinal preaching.
They desire to believe. but not blindly,
not at second hand, not with the par
sons faith in place of their own"

a LIFE SAVING EXPERIMENT.

Students of vital statistics will be in
terested in the results Of an experiment
1 at Huddersfield. England, two years
ago the annual mortality among in
fants. in that town, according to a
i London, dispatch, was 122 in the thou
sand This had been the average death
rate for ten years. When Alderman
Broadbent, humanitarian and scien-
list. became mayor of Huddersheld, he
adopted an unusual plan to reduce the
mortality among the little ones. He Of
fered a prize of SIS to parents living in
!; a certain quarter of the city for eaca
child born during the mayors twelve
months in office and living to be year
old.
This experiment has been watched
with interest by many distinguished
persons, including the royal family IN
England and our own president. The
births OF the babies We're duly register
ed by committee appointed for that
purpose. AT the end of the prescribed
period it was found that the infant
mortality in the experiment area had
fallen from 122 to A in the thousand.
During the period of the test there
were severe epidemics in Huddersfield
Of measles and whooping cough, while
the summer of 1906 was one Of the

dealiest on record.

PAR EXAMPLE

New York is great state. It's proud
claim to the title of Empire State
is allowed without question. Iowa is a
prairie state. far beneath New York
in population and wealth. But the diff
ference between New York and Iowa is
the difference between Allison and De-
pew. Dolliver and Plat.
-Four years of Depew's term remain
to serve Platt's expires, in 1909. I'm
less death intervenes to end their ca
reers in the senate, there seems no way
for the people of New York to attain
real representation in the upper house
OF national legislation. No other state
in the union is SO much misrepresented
there as the richest and greatest.
If senators were to be chosen by pop
ular vote in primary or election, would
such men as Depew and Plat represent
special interests at the expense of the
farmers and business men of the state
and to the disgrace and detriment Of a
nation?

SENATOR BAlLEYs .LoAM."

Senator Bailey. who is now in Texas,
to answer the charge brought by the
/ attorney general of that state that he
had received money of the Standard
Oil interests for his services in secur-
+ ing the readmission of an annex of that
company, the Waters-Pierce Company,
to do business in Texas after having
been ousted under the antitrust law,
makes a singular reply to the. accusa-
ton. Admitting that he got the money,
$4,000, he says it was a loan, and he
returned it, and that he is prepared
to prove his statements to that effect.
He admits having secured sums of
I money from Pierce, among the number
specified being loan of $4,000, which
he made of Pierce one time, when he
needed some money in a hurry and
which he returned in season.
Practically the investigation has

States or anywhere else where simple
honesty Is needed. Most men are able
to make the connection between the
loan" and the establishment of the
trust in the eyes of the Texas law. Few
are so obtuse as to palliate the specta-
Gle of a United States senator using a
trust magnate as his banker. Senator
Bailey's plea will be equivalent to a
confession in the minds of most men,
Possibly Bailey may evade GRIM

cation of himself. but there is only one

Oliver Wendell Holmes was strolling

chatting with little girl who was
building pyramids of Sand. His charm
Of personality had its customary effect
and the child soon Slipped her hand
into his and walked with him. BY and
by the little one said SHE must retunn
to her mother "Goodty, my dear,
said Mr.. Holmes, land when mother
asks you where you've been tell her
you've been walling on the beach with
Oliver Wendell Holmes" The great
name was absolutely unknown to the
child, but She recognized "a courtesy in
the words of her stranger friend and
was not to be outdone. His pleasant
bow and smile acquired quaint grav-
ity as initiated by the child. She re-
piled: And when you go home and
they ask you where you've been, tell
them you were walking on the beach

Women to Eli Clerical Ranks.

Shall we have ministry recruited
by ordained women? is question put
by writer of the Methodist Episcopal
denomination, in viewing with dismay
the present waning supply of men. The
writer. Rev. Daniel Steele, D. d., con-
templates the statement made by DR..
w. N. Rice, in The Alumni Record,
of Wesleyan University, that among
the alumni between 1872 and 1905.
the gain In the number of physicians
was 81 per cent, in the number Of law
yers "A per cent, of business men 154
per cent, while the gain in the number
of ministers was only 4 per cent" In
addition he quotes the report of the
secretary of the Methodist Educational
Fund to the effect that, while in 1899
there were lib students assisted from
the fund in paying their expenses for
education. the number in 1904 was de-
creased to S26. Seventy-tive years ago,
remarks DR.. Steele, in The Christian
Advocate (New York;, "Methodism
having no colleges nor universities nor
theological seminaries and only few
academies, drew her ministerial supply
almost entirely from the plow and the
shop. But since the wide diffusion of
education among the laity she cannot
continue to do this" No hope of re-
cruits from the Salvation Army, the
offspring OF Methodism" can be en-
tertained, says the writer, since "as
whole the Army lacks that literary
and theological training requisite for
success in our ministry. Moreover, 1t
seems at present to be affected by the
same chill that has struck at us, with
this differences: they are slipping down
from evangelism to philanthropy, from
