thingx. Ike charity, Is sufficient b

Mike also has his inherited and ac-
quired share.
There Is his wanderlust that has
made him tramp most OF the dry parts
Of the earth and, not content witns
that, has driven him to all before the
mast over the wet parts.
There Is likewise his recurrent thirst
that at the end Of a period OF months
takes Mike out of the world for at
least a week.
TO the Only Woman Mike one, day
paid a tribute to her more unworthy

If so, 1 have missed the way. l must

tiers and stumbles.
Poor old Mike! The wanderlust at
last will be too much for him. He will
take to the open road, disappearing as
he came.
But his lesson will remain. That has
burned itself home.

! once dreamed Of a perfect rule Of
life that God would give to man, and
this was the form It took: aspire to
nothing the world can give. Aspire to
all that I can give"

The world wants things that are gen.
uine. It wants people who seem to be
what they are. It is tired Of preten-
sion, Of cant of fakirism. It is sick
Of the goody good. It yearns for a
little wholesome common sense. It
needs more warm hearted, broad
minded. sincere goodness-the real
thing and not the counterfeit.

righted. the orderly course Of things

Of all would Inevitably result.

CONGRESSIONAL
The Williams Cannon Dispute.

When the house started in on last
weeks work Leader Williams of the
minority rose to a question of privilege
and explained wherein he disapproved
the action of the speaker in declaring
the house adjourned April Is without
needing the demand OF the minority
leader for a division. While assuring
the house that the difference Of opinion
on this question had not broken the
personal friendship between himself
and Cannon, he could not too emphat-.
ically express his dissent He feared
that long exercise of power had bred
in Cannon intolerance of opposition
and disposition ito regard the per
Torrance of his official duties as
jest" He felt sure that the speaker
would acknowledge his error He then
moved resolution, saying that the
speakers action constituted breach
of the privileges of the house affecting
the dignity and safety of it's proceed
ings."
The speaker replied in his own de-
Tense. saying that the rules were to
be observed under normal conditions.
but that exceptions were provided for,
one being that no dilatory motion shall
be entertained Then. recounting the
facts of the minority's long flibuster,

ing that the call for a division on the

Under the name OF the Kings bust
ness the movement gained great head
way, and it was the application OF
modern business methods in alliance
with the press Of the city that brought
success. The North American in par
dcular set new pace in the recogni-
ton of this great activity as legiti-
mate field of news for the community.
The underlying idea was to bring the
principles of Christianity into direct
contact with business life throughout
the city. Meetings were not confined
to the churches alone, but were held in
the workshops, In theaters, In saloons
and on the streets. And in 1t all the
local church leaders were kept in the
foreground rather than the visiting
evangelists. The result OF this policy is
to enable the churches to get the full
benefit of the work and to carry it on
regularly. All the Protestant denomi-
nations were interested, and 221
churches participated at once Many
wealthy men contributed literally to
the expense fund. DR.. Chapman and
Mr.. Alexander will carry on their work

Upon his arrival at New York last
week Captain Ejnar Mikkelsen of the
Mikkelsen-L effingwell polar expedition,
which started north two years ago and
which has been credited with proving
the existence of land north Of the I'M
explored sea. explains that he didn't do
anything of the kind. His observations
indicate that there is no land there, but
he returns with the belief mistaken
that there is land north Of the unex-
plored sea. This belief rests largely
upon the flight of birds in that direc-
ton. On his way back Mikkelsen
walked something like 5000 miles,
from Flaxman's island to Valdes and
Nome. LefingwelI remained at Flax

fusal of the Turkish government to al
low Italian postofices in Turkish terri
tory and also over the murder of an
italian missionary in Tripoli. Turkey
held that, while it had tolerated the
postofices of other powers, it had
never officially authorized them, but
Italy felt that for years the porte had
