Life Not "a Holiday.

Sooner or later we find out thbt
life is not a holiday, but a discipline.
Earlier or later we will discover that
the world is not a playground. II ia
quite clear that God means IL for a
school. The moment we forget thai,
the puzzle OF life begins. We try To
play in school. The Master does not
mind that so much for its own sake
for He likes 10 see His children
happy; but in our playing we neglect
our lessons. We do not see how
much there is TO learn, and we do not
care.
But our Master cares. He has Q
perfectly overwhelming and ineXpl:-
cable solicitude for our education;
and because lie loves US He comes
into the school sometimes and speaks
TO US lie may speak very softly and
gently or very loudly.
But one thing we may be sure of
The task He sets US 20 Is never meas
ured by our delinquency. II Is meas
ured by Gods solicitude for our pro-
gress; measured solely by Gods love;
measured solely that the scholar may
be better educated when he arrives at
his Fathers home.--Henry Drum
mond.

Wear Your Troubles Inside.

Many a man gets into the habit or
carrying his troubles in his face. The
eyes tell it, the droop of the lip
speaks il, the bowed head declares II.
the very grip of the hand reveals il,
and the football is full OF 1t. He has
run up the flag at half-mast, and he
carries It everywhere, so that his
whole little world is compelled TO
know his sorrow.
Is this natural? Possibly. Is II
wise? Probably not. Is 1t fair :!
Surely not. Is it a sign of weakness!
Undoubtedly il N:,
Is there better way? Surely
there is. First, a man must make
up his mind TO expect his share OK
trouble, and perhaps a little moro.
Then he should make up his mind TO
bear his trouble manfuIly, /. e., with
patience, with courage and with hope.
The world has enough trouble OF It's
own; let us not add 10 its burden! II
should be the aim of every Christian
man and woman to become strong.
and when strength is won TO use that
strength in bearing the burdens OK
others. Every sorrow mastered, ev.
cry burden borne inside instead or
outside, makes US stronger, and leaves
the world brighter.
Learn 10 smile, get the habit OF II;
learn TO sing, make it,also a habit;
and you will be surprised how much
brighter IL makes the world, not only
to others, but TO yourself. The smile
and the song lesson the burden and
light the way.-Christian Guardian.

MAXIM F0RESEES
AERIAL WAR SHIPS.
Tells OF Their Possibilities at
Balloon Dinner" Of the Al
dine Association.

Prediction that the practical attain
ment OF aerial navigation now is truly
at hand was coupled with enthusiastic
and reverent tribute 10 the worlds
great inventors by the speakers at the
balloon dinner" given by the mem
bers OF the Aldine Association. in
their club rooms, No. III Fifth ave-
nue. Professor Alexander Graham
Bell. Hudson Maxim. the inventor of
smokeless powder, and Major George
| q. Squier. L. 5. A., who has had di-
rection of many of the Governments
aeronautic experiments, were among
the men who proclaimed the day of
successful aerial navigation at hand.
As showing what has been accom-
plished thus far I'm America and
abroad, Augustus Post. one of the
practical pioneers of the Aero Club
OF America, delivered an address,
which was illustrated by moving pic
lures showing the Vile de Paris in
! flight and Henry Farman making the
recent dash in his aeroplane. which
attracted attention around the world.
The fying machine said Mr..
Maxim, ais no longer confined 10 the
realm Of fancy or imagination, but
the conquest of the air is already far
advanced, and the era Of practical util-
! ity is near. In the not distant future
we shall have our automobiles of the
air, and In the wars of the future we
shall have our aerial battleships, our
cruisers, our torpedo boats and tor
pedo boat destroyers. But they will
be airy, frail and fairy craft. indeed,
compared with the grim steel mon
sters of the sea.
Although the value OF the flying
machine in future wars will be mainly
as scouting craft. still its value
and Importance for that service alone
/ is hard TO overestimate. for the flying
machine videttes will be at once the
eyes and ears OF the armies OF the
| future.
Possibly, too, We shall have our
/ torpedo hawk, taloned with dynamite.
which will swoop down out OF the
sky. Although flying machines could
not be expected successfully to at
tack battleships. coast fortiflcations
or large cities and work much damage
with high explosives, still they might
attack torpedoes and small torpedo
craft with aerial bombs planted and
exploded beside them under water.
THE more highly scientific war
enginery becomes, more and more
will home and country be defended
by machinery and less by blood.
Fewer and fewer men will be obliged
to engage in the trade of war, and
more and more Will be able to devote
themselves TO personal pursuits.
Less and less will war be the arbiter
of nations. The aerial navy will be
the great bulwark of peace and a very
great step toward the permaDence of
peace. And as mercy is largely a
product of civilization, future con-
quest will be more and more tenn
pered with mercy until mercy shall
have conquered war. Altruism is
born of love. but international love-
making must be done with armor
on. New York Herald!~

the nations. The world owes an In
calculable debt, as do We, 10 the
church, and the church should by her
unceasing and compounding influence
for good and for God, and unremit-
ting service for men, place the world
ever more largely in her due.
The churches must be Beth-els or
many OF them never could Withstand
the abuses 20 which they are lent.
Only upon the assumption that the
spiritual influences that move within
them are born OF God can We under
stand how many OF them survive the
dissertations 10 which they are sub
jected. The average fair is enough
to kill any church. The average
church entertainment, paltry and
puerile as il is eXpressionless, would
be a death blow 10 the social activi-
ties of any organization less hardy.
What with moving pictures and wax
works and spelling bees and turkey
suppers and mems smokers and wom-
ems gossip, il is wonderful that we
have any veneration for churches at
at all, that we find any blessing, any
inspiration within them, and any in
auence moving from them.
The church should be Bethel. IL
should be the house OF God. There,
too, we should see the ladder
stretching down from heaven, there
the ascending and descending angels.
There We should see God. There We
should make covenant with Him.
There we should enter into the pos
session of His interminable promise.
There we should have a glorious. an
exalted spiritual blessing.

 N. 0. MURPHY
Will be Held In Coronado
 California Today
The Ceremonies Will be Under the Auspices of the Masonic Order.

The funeral of Former Governor N. O. Murphy, who died at the Coro- nado Hotel in Coronado, California, will be held this forenoon and inter ment will be made in that city.
 A. w. Edwards and Paul Burks of Prescott, intimate personal friends of the deceased are there, as also is Mrs Frank NJ. Murphy. Mir. F. M. Mur phy being in New York, will of course be unable to attend.
 The funeral will be held under the auspices of the Masonic order of which Governor Murphy has been for many years a member. He was quite well known in San Diego, just across the bay, where he has visited frequently in former years and it is presumed the San Diego Masons are in charge though there may be lodge in Coronado also. But few facts concerning the funeral have been learned here, the above information being taken from a tele- gram received here from Paul Burks last evening.
