Spokane, Wash, Aug. 2S.-"Rag time
life-the laughter of devils, the de-
rision of angels, the grief Of heav-
en-"
That is the Interpretation given by
Rev. DR.. Edwin L. House, pastor of
Westminster Congregational church in
the course of sermon on "the kind OF
songs we should avoid" He added:
Rag time is the expression of folly,
the output of trivial minds, the pro-
duct and vocation Of the moral buff
foon. A life, then, is mere rag time
when the singer of it puts his whole
time on things that amount only to
froth on the wine, the passing fash
ion and follies of the hour.
When men have no more serious
intent than to rush for race track
on Saturday, base ball game on Sum
day; when women in high society
make pet dog or a scanty gown the
highest object of living, they march
and keep time with vacuous hilarity to
perpetual ia ra, ra ra, boom-de-
ave. They live as if life were a de-
bauch and the world made for the
benefit of Punch and Judy. If you are
a Christian, let me Urge upon you to
change the tune. ou5 piety counts for
no more than the character back of it.

he discovered him living the life of a
hermit in West Cheshire.
Blondin when found by his old COM
rade was working as carpenter on
odd jobs. and said: ,
Yes. I know they think me dead,
and perhaps I had better be dead. I
