THE LIFE THAT COUNTS.

1t is the kingdom of God that is the
great reality in this world. In the eyes
of multitudes the world, the present
course of things, commercial, social, per,
sonal, looms very large, and is the chief
end of man. But we know better than
that. "The world passeth away and the
lust thereof" that is, even all human adj
miration and desire for it shall also pass
away, "but he that doeth the will of
God abideth forever" 1t is the king
dom and service of God in the hearts
and lives of men which has life, divine,
enduring, endless life, and will grow and
abide when all else has failed and gone.
The value of a human life depends on
its relations to that kingdom, which is
the kingdom Of Christ The life spent
away from Christ, and alienated from
God, is not in the great current of Gods
purpose and power, and is a wasted life,
to end in wreck on the shores of eter-
nifty. A worldly life, unbelieving, un-
caring, is a life thrown away. In the
eyes of the world it may be successful,
fortunate, happy. But In the estimate
of truth and of God, it has not been worth
while. 1t has much of this worlds
goods-clothing, food, home, comfort pros
perity and fame. And these things,
external, temporary, were good for awhile.
But they never entirely satisfied, and
were altogether transient. The sub
stance was wasted, and the end was fam
Inc in far country.
But the life that is joined unto the
Lord, small, obscure, narrow though it
be, is the life that counts. It's profession
and its use are positive and not negative.
Its force was given to things that abide
forever. 1t was spent with the King, and
by the wheels of his chariot 1t may be
a one-talent life, but it was not hid in
the ground. 1t may be as one wounded
and left on the wayside, but it belonged
to the winning side in the battle. At the
end 1t will come in for a share in the
glory, and the crown of life that fadeth
not. 1t is the Christian life that counts
for time and eternity.

PURITY IN ART.

o4AA4 Nv <AN4s
For many years Mr.. Anthony Com
stock has been subject to the ridicule
of daily papers and illustrated periodi-
GALS He has probably been the greatest
living advocate of social purity, moral
reform and humane treatment of lower
animal life. AS such he has suffered va
r1ous forms and degrees of persecution,
to the extent of personal violence Yet
he has kept steadily on his way. enlist
ing the aid of men Of influence and
wealth, like Messrs. Jessup and Dodge,
of New York. AS a result of his efforts
we are told that ninety tons of impure
reading matter and indecent pictures
have been destroyed, and nearly 5000
persons have been arrested on the charge
of circulating such material Lately Mr..
Comstock attacked the Students Art
League, of New York City, for exhibiting
indecent specimens. The League affect
ed great indignation that the products
of their artistic taste and skill should
be subject to such irreverent treatment.
The court sustained Mr.. Comstock in con-
fiscating the questionable specimens Mr..
Comstock has written an article in Les
lies Weekly on "The Crime of the Nude"
in which he states his attitude clearly
and fearlessly toward the class of popular
artists who force their vile productions
upon the public in violation of moral de-
cency and statute law He says:
when artists and poets combine To
force their degrading products upon the
public at large, in violation Of the whole
some principles which safeguard society,
they must use other weapons than sneers.
r1d1cule and libels Art and poetry are
not above morals. They are not privi-
legged to destroy the character, befoul the
morals, or scar the conscience of any boy
or girl. l cheerfully take my stand be-
tween the advocates of the nude in art
and the beloved children of this country,
sneers, ridicule and derision to the con-
trary notwithstanding"
1t may be added that this offense
against refined taste and pure morals is
not confined to New York City. We were
once entertained in the home of a prom
inent churchman where five out of seven
conspicuous engravings and paintings
were of the character which Mr.. Com
stock has recently raked out of the studio
of the Art League.

A. G. Beeson, head of the Nebraska In

RIGHT NOURISHMENT.

We think of nourishment
as food-meats, soups, vege.
tables, etc., but that's only half.
It's not the food alone that
counts but the good that we
get from food that furnishes
nourishment. A pound of
steak is of less value to a
weak stomach than a crust Of
bread is to strong digestion.
But weak stomaChs can be
made strong. Begin by eat
ing less; have regular hours
for meals: avoid fancy things
and about a half hour after
eating take tablespoonful of
SCOTS Emulsion. It's a fact
of medical history that people
have lived on not much else
but SCOTS Emulsion for a
long time-not only lived but
gained flesh and recovered
their strength and health.
From the pure Norwegian
cod liver oil to the last drop
of glycerine, SCOTS Emulsion
contains just the strength
giving and health-building
elements needed for low vital
ity, weak digestion and poorly
nourished bodies.
