writer, nce promised the editor OF a
magazine that he would deliver a short
story TO him on the following Mon

The Road to Crime.

From Everybody Magazine.
Whether or not Samuel Clemens

Mark Twain and sought to interest him
in life insurance. At first he talked
well; then. having exhausted all his
arguments he merely talked. Mark
Twain yawned slightly, and became re-
minded AS follows:
Some years ago In Hartford we all
went 10 church one hot, sweltering
night to hear the annual report OF Mr..
Hawley, a city missionary who went
around finding people who needed help
and didn't want to ask for IL. He told

through. / had s400 in my pocket. L
wanted to give that and borrow more
to give. You could see greenbacks in
every eve. But instead of passing the
plate then, he kept on talking and ak
ing, and as he talked 1t grew hotter
and hotter and hotter, and we grew
sleepier and sleepier. My enthusiasm
went down, down, down-S100 at a clip
until finally, when the plate did
come around, / stole 10 cents out of ii.

like this can lead to crime

will the great corporations, the

cy is antagonistic to every interest
named. On the other hand, they
know that If Mr.. Bryan be success
ful he has already committed him

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, as they can.
Lot reach the diseased portion of tn :

deafness, and that is by constitu
tional remedies. Deafness is caused
by an infiamed condition of the mu-
cous lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube is inf1amed you have
q rumbling sound or imperfect hear
ing, and when it is entirely closed,
Deafness is the result, and unless
the inflammation can be taken out
and this tube restored to it's normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed
forever; nine cases out of ten are
caused by. Catarrh, which is nothing

BANKS AND THE PANIC.

For every bank that failed an
other has been organized to take its
place, or the crippled institution has
been reorganized with new capital
and new management, which prom
ises to evade the pitfalls which led
to the recent panic and the wreck
ing of weakened institutions. This
shows that there is capital in plenty
and real need for such forms of in
yestment. The country was not
overstocked with banks any more
than 1t was overstoeked with prod
ucts from its factories and mills.
This has been cited as the saving
clause in the survey of revival con-
ditions.
Business is moving on conserva-
lively, but It is moving on, and the
progress is gradually removing all
bad effects of the recent furry, and
further, 1t is emphasizing the good
effects in the way of safety in bank
ing methods, The wildcat banker
with his get-rich-quick methods
will not be countenanced in the
near future.

ers a threefold development, physi-
cal, mental and spiritual. Our pub
lie and state educational institu-
tions are we'll equipped to provide
for the first two, physical and men
tai, but unfortunately our educa-
tional laws wifi not permit of any
emphasis on the religious or spirit
ual development. DR.. Riley dwelt
on the Importance of this latter as
pect Of an ideal education, and
made strong plea for the support
of denominational colleges.
