EVIL Turks IN A KISS
A REMARKABLY SERMON ON
LOVES SWEET TOKEN.
Minister Calls II the Devils Gost
Cherished and Fruitful
Weapon"

Cairo, Ill.-More evil turks in a psur
little kiss" than all the other vices
put together, according to the Rev. L.
ID. Bass of the Calvary Baptist Church,
who tonight astonished his members
with one OF the most remarkable ser
mons they ever listened to- In his dis
course Rev. Bass said the kiss was the
devils most cherished and fruitful
weapon for bringing in his harvests,
and did more to fill hell than whisky,
drugs and all evils ever invented rolled
into one.
He said: "Therc is something won
derfully magnetic and thrilling in a
kiss. When two sets Of lips come to-
gether II is like two clouds charged
with electricity. the one positive and
the other negative. And the result is
an emotional explosion and cloudburst
of excessive passion and ccstacy. Moth
ing has more of heavens fire or the fire
OF hell than a kiss. The best things
perverted are the worst instrumentali-
ties for deadly evil. And know moth
ing as subtle and as damaging as a
burning, thrilling kiss. Great God de-
liver us from the kissing devil"

UNCLE SANS BIG PROFITS
Tremendous Increase in Receipts for
the Year.

Washington. So far as working pur-
poses are concerned the fiscal year Of
the government clio ed today with a
surplus OF substantially ss7 900, 600, one
of the largest net balances ever shown.
In 1902 there was surplus Of S9l, ,2s7,- :
3I5, but that was the largest since 1890.
While the official reports will not he
announced until Monday, the figures
available today are approximately ac-
curate. They show that in the year
just closed the income from the various
sources of revenue was 1865, 1906, l33,
and expenditures, s57s, 1915, 100. as COM
pared with receipts of $3.50, ,574, 2s6 for
the last fiscal year, and expenditures
of s56s, 7s4, ,7s9, the surplus in that year
being s25 5,669,32
The receipts from the different sources
this fiscal year have been as follows:
Customs. 1888, go, l26; internal revenue,
s270, 1903, ,3Ss; miscellaneous, SCI, ,766, ,6l9
The receipts from the same sources
in the last fiscal year were as follows:
Customs, sJoO, ,Zol ,SII; internal revenue,
$3.50, l5o, 2l2; miscellaneous, $40, l72, 1877.
There has been no year in the his
tory of the country in which the re-
ceipts from customs came within many
millions of the present year.
Internal revenue receipts likewise
break all records, except during the
Spanish American war, when special
taxes were being collected.
