How to Help Our Friends.

We often attempt to regulate the
lives of our friends through imposing
our own wills upon them. This we do
under the impression that our con-
ception of truth is superior to theirs,
and that we see more clearly than
they do. This Is really but form of
selfshness, and binds all who indulge
in it, both the strong and the weak.
OF course there is point where a
kind and friendly desire to help an
other may be productive of good. But
when the desire to help another in
wolves the subjugation of his spirit
and understanding, then that desire
becomes a selfish one. For you can
not force a knowledge of truth upon
anyone. Only love and patience and
living the truth yourself can bring it
to the consciousness of your friends

doubt and scruple in an instant; &C

New York is the dirtiest of the

and the skyscrapers on which we
pride ourselves are making its streets
the darkest on Gods footstool Hith-
erto, however, we had been able to
look upward-from the footstool to
the throne. so to speak-and catch
glimpses of the sky and of the sun
or the moon. especially If We hap
pened to be passing through park or
square. But even of this resource we
are now being robbed What with the
dirt. the din and the darkness. to say
nothing of the everlasting quick lunch,
strap hanging. step lively scramble of
our daily lives, it is small wonder that
money Is to be made by advertising
remedies for shattered nerves and es-
Establishments for making men over"
But even such advertisers could not
pay the city price that would Justify
