viii only continue to serve God by the
light we have Jesus Christ will con-
tinue more and more to reveal himself
to us in a brighter and holier and
truer light
Thus today, whether we are old or
young. rich or poor, church members
or nonchurch members, | feel that we
are one and all standing in the light
of some gospel truth. Are we ready to
obey that truth as much as we see itE
Are we ready to proclaim that truth
no matter what earthly power bids US
nay? Are we ready to be true to
Christ as was Bishop Latimer when
preaching before King Henry VIII?
In the midst of bis sermon he suddenly
stopped and said "Latlmer! Latlmer!
Latimer! Remember thou art in the
presence of thy king. Heed well what
thou sayest to him." Then he paused
again and said: "Latimer! Latfmer!
Latimer! Remember that thou art in
the presence of the King Of kings. Heed
well what thou s5yest. 1t is more i'm
portant to obey the King of kings than
it is to obey any earthly potentate."
Oh, my friends, are you saying this?
Will you be as true to the King of kings
as was Hugh Latmer or the young
man of the east who was brave enough
to be true to Christ when he said,
"Whether he be a sinner or not, l know
not, but one thing / know-that, where
as | was blind, now l see?"

Champion Misers of Recent Years.
A few weeks ago Samuel Dunlap
died in England. He had several mil
lions and in forty years had purchased
one suit of clothes. a cheap pair of
trousers, two overcoats, and in sixteen
years four straw hats were his only
head covering. He would not have his
shoes backened for fear of wearing
them out, and his housekeeper cut his
hair.
A Russian millionaire, SOlodovnikogo,
left millions for charity when he died.
He had lived alone for years, little bet
ter than a dog. He was ragged and
miserable With an income of half a
million a year. his expenditures were
not over IS weekly.
NJ. Colasson of France was rich and
happy till his favorite nephew was
burned to death Then he shut him
self in a room aud for twenty-seven
years lived as recluse, seeing only an
old servant. He ate only eggs and
bread.
James Tyson, Australian millionaire,
boosted that during his long life he
had never entered a theater, worn
gloves, washed himself with soap nor
worn white shirt.

Max Nordau in an article against
Esperanto admits the absolute neces-
sity of an international language" but
gives the opinion that "this can new
er be Esperanto" He says: "It would
be impossible for an artificial language
to retain unity of character-in other
words, it would invariably lapse into
dialect. producing eventually as many
Esperantos as the. nations adopting
it," In answer to this argument a
writer in the Buenos Ayres Herald
says: 'Latin was the recognized me-
dunn Of exposition by the learned of
all the nations Of Europe up to the
end of the seventeenth century. We
have yet to learn that each country
created its own Latin dialect French
is the language Of large part of Bel
GUM, Switzerland, Canada, etc, and
yet it remains practically French all
the time. Latin was preserved as
Latin because there were always ac-
cessible sources of reference and rec
tification. The same may be said of
French, and the same may also be
said of Esperanto"

cite widespread discussion among
public men the country over. The
agitation for publicity OF campaign
expenses aud various laws IN the diff

tons has caused the president to
question In his own mind whether 1t
may not be possible to devise a
scheme by which the government may
assume the responsibility, not only
for the actual expense of the cleo
lions as at present. but for the le-
gitlmate campaign expenses OF the

Is worth consideration, and II is re-
