Ages pass, but each returning
Easter brings again its lessons of
sacrifice, of unselfshness and of
great love for humanity. Great
snowy banks of lilies, emblems of
purity, are offered in remembrance
of the greatest self-abnegation in
the world. In vast cathedral and
modest chapel vibrates the majes-
tic music of praise for that most
wonderful resurrection, upon
which is based the faith of the
mightiest people of the earth.

sPAiN's cANNY RAILROADS.

Visitors Have to Pay for a Ticket
Merely to Go on the Platform.
In Spain the railroads do not lose a
chance to make little profit, even in
the case Of the non-travelers. When
you see somebody off in that country
you must pay for the privilege.
The railroads all sell bil1etes de an:

only. These cost generally five CEN
limos, equivalent to cent in Ameri.

Just why this is done it is hard to
see, because persons entering a. train

WATCHING THE AUTOMOBILE.

Owner and Chauffeur Have Anxious Mo.
nents While in a Restaurant.
The man who drove up to the res.
taurant in an automobile brought his
Chauffeur, in with him to eat. They
stood around for several minutes,
while the walters posed at tables all
about.
IT want a seat from which can
watch my car" said the owner. when
the head waiter approached to find out
why the hesitation. "You know that
there have been so many cases recent.
ly of cars being stolen from in front
of restaurants and hotels that I do
not want to take any chances"
They got their seats all right within
easy range of the automobile. one of
the American made machines of tho
$4,000 type. 1t is safe to say that the
worry incidental to that meal caused
a not inconsiderable amount of indi-
gestion. Either master or man had an
eye on the automobile throughout the
entire meal.

of libel suits to silence the popular In

well-known Religious paper, has

ing suits for libel brought by Golfers
against US for commenting upon it's
methods.

very emphatic words left out.
"The religious Press owes you a
debt Of gratitude for your courage in
showing up Golfers Weekly as the
"Yell-Oh Man." Would you care to
use the inclosed article on the boo

successor?'

Here is a publication which has, in
utmost disregard of the facts, spread
broadcast damaging statements about
the Religious Press and others and
has suffered those false statements to
go uncontradicted until, not satisfied
after finding the Religious Press too
quiet, and peaceful, to resent the in

criminal life had left it's mark upon,
but which still bore certain strong
characteristics Of the Brettinghams.
