MODERNISM.
golden COOS

The most significant portion Of the latest
nanal encvccal should be that IN which IL de-
fines It's subject. All depends upon what is
meant by modernism" 1t cannot or course
he everything in the modern world-aI modern
research. invention learning and literature
For MANY of these things are entirely apart
from all questions of religious faith. The trl-
umphs of electrical science, of chemistry, or
hacteriology and Of geographical research are
intensely modern, yet they are not TO be sup
posed to fall under the papal ban. On the
other hand we may pretty safely assume that
Pins Y had in mind as some of the objects OF
anathematization certain modern teachings In
metaphvsics In biology and IN biblical criticism.
1t will be interesting to see, from the full text
of the encyclicaI how definitely the line is
drawn between the permitted and the forbidden,
and where 1t is drawn.
The popular mind, which not infrequently be
comes weary and impatient Of the exaggerated
phases and untenable pretensons of modern
ISM" is not disregardful of the fact that there
is a vibrating pendulum in modernism" which
swings now in the one direction and now in the
other. Some "modernist" biologists by out-Dar-
winng Darwin made their science offensive and
antagonistic to religious faith, Catholic or
Protestant Jewish Gentle. Yet Others of
edua! rank. have led a reaction against
those extremes. and have TO the satisfaction of
many demonstrated entire harmony between
evolution and revelation. The same may be
said Of the higher criticism" At one time
pathological and archaeological 'modernsts"
thought that they were tearing the Pentateuch
and the Prophets TO rags. but still more modern
"modernists' have found in ancient texts and
unearthed ruins the most striking combinations
of the established Canon. Between the two
classes Of ''modernists' discrimination is essen
tial
Nor will 1t escape observation that modern
ISM is after ALL relative term. It's applica-
ton is continually changing In the thirteenth
century Thomas Aquinas was intensely modern
and up TO date. One day the "modernist" teach
ers of this first decade of the twentieth century
will be antQuated. And some who were con-
demned when they were 'modernists" have
been accepted when they became antique. The
cosmogony Of Gaileo was in his time regarded
as q 'modernist" heresy. leading logically to
atheism, but today it is accepted as truth The
need of caution in ecclesiastical censorship is OBJ
vous. and doubtless receives due emphasis in
the papal encyclical. 1t is against modern
promulgatlons of error that the papal interdict
is issued. and not against modern demonstra-
tions of truth /; but the sons Of PLATE are multi
tudinous. and 1t Is not always easy for human

SOME FIGURES ON THE COST OF SPORTS.

From CINCINNATI CommerclhI IrIpunt
For the intercollegiate regatta on the Hudson
the cost of sending three crews, varsity and
freshman eights and varsity four. together with
the substitutes and boatkeeper, averages about
80 600 for the crews coming from the colleges
near nv In the of coming from
long distance the cost is correspondingy greater.
and this II must be remembered is but item
OF the yearly expense in the department Of ath-
letics.
The average annual cost of maintenance is S2.-
coo of which the principal items coaching.
equipment. training table and transportation The
minimum estimate of coach's salary is 5000.
although this. of course varies generously The
equipment means coaching launches and new
shells and, as several shells bought each
year. II entails considerable outlay, which is
where nearly met by the sale of the old shells.
The returns from this sport but small an
example the report OF the graduate treasurer OF
the athletics at Havard shows receipts of the
university boat club nearly 5000, whereas the
expenditures amounted S1l 266 81. And so IL runs

HOW THE EMPERoR's COOK CAME.

From Tft-Bits.
Although the Emperor of Austria. who has Just
his seVenty-eighth year, is
tremey frugal eater. he pays his cook Perski.

and many years ago. when the Emperor dining
with his subject he immensely struck BY the
way certain boar's head cooked, and de
sired that the artist should be complipented- Two
DAYS afterward "A huge packing case arrived AT

contain Perski. the cook in good health although
rather breathless. The Emperor accepted the gift

Senator Lodges vigorous denunciation of the
nroposed public opinion" bill in Massachusetts,
should be read with interest over in New Jer-
sew. where there has been a strong movement
in favor of a similar measure. The New Jer
sew scheme is a little different from that in
Massachusetts,. inasmuch as it would require a
petition of 10 per cent of the voters to get a
question submitted to ballot while in Massa-
chusetts the proposal Is that five thousand voters
should have that power. The referendum prin-
ciple Is however. the same in both cases In
Massachusetts, the proposal has got as far as
vote in the Legislature. 1t seems unlikely that
it will get so far I'm New Jersey, at least for

that this is common than the

"blackleg'' by its swindlng significance is

COSTLY PRESSURE.
Heart and Nerves Fail on Coffee.


A resident of great western state
puts the case regarding stirnulants
with comprehensive brevity that is
admirable. He says: e. HI. -
Il am Sc years old and have had CON
siderable experience with stimulants.
They are all alike-a mortgage on re-
served energy at ruinous interest. AS
the whip stimulates but does not
strengthen the horse, so do stimulants
act upon the human system. Feeling
this way, I gave up coffee and all
other stimulants and began the use Of
Postum Food coffee some months ago.
The beneficial results have been an
parent from the first The rheumatism
that I used to suffer from has left me.

American ldealism.

Since my first arrival in America I
have held that the real spirit is ideal.
istic and that the average individual
American is controlled by idealistio
impulses. Those who may contradict
me can not have sounded the depths
of the philosophy of Ralph Waldo
Emerson, or studied the life and read
the speeches of Abraham Lincoln, and
considered their far-reaching effect on
the American people. In Lincoln's
great character nothing can b. more
striking than the way in which he
combined reality and the Hottest ideal,
with thoroughly practical capacity
to achieve that ideal by practical
methods. This faculty seemed to give
him far-sighted, almost superhuman
vision, which enabled him to pierce
the clouds obscuring the sight of the.
keenest statesmen and thinkers Of his
age-Baron Speck Won Sternburg, in
Forum.
