They shall not hurt nor destroy in
all my holy domain; for the earth
shall be full of the knowledge of
the Lord as the waters cover the sea-"
Isaiah XII, g.
In that delightful book of Swift
entitled "Gullivers Travels" the is
land of Lilliput is reached where the
traveller is seized and bound by the
diminutive and dwarfed inhabitants.
On awakening it is easy work to break
the bands and free himself. Intended
as a satire on the court of George L
the voyage to Lilliput may be used
to denote a mankind bursting the
bonds and letters which long ages
of ignorance have fastened on them
And the way in which it is sought
to awaken mankind to knowledge
of it's powers and forces is tribute
to the Spark of the .God-like dwell
ing Within In this process of awak-
ening mankind, the only reasonable
method to be used is that of educa-
t ion. The ancient Greek legend rep
resented man freeing himself from
the Gods the things he needed.
Fire is one of the primal necessities
without which man cannot live and
Pormentheus steals from 'the Gods"
the spark, the flame, and as a penal
ty for this theft he is pinioned to a
rock and his body is perpetually eaten
by the vultures-a punishment hit for
the crime of stealing from 'the Gods"
when experience teaches that two
stones moved briskly one against the
other, produce heat and then flame.
We need not take from Heaven any
thing. God gives us all things. We
would not appreciate it if God gave us
for the mere asking just as little as
the average individual to whom is left
a great fortune appreciates, much less
understands, the power of money.
"In the sweat of thy brow shalt thou
till the earth all the days thou Invest"
and in accordance with this Biblical
precept, the children of the rich are
learning the A B G of trade, are
getting the elements of an education
so that they may wisely and properly
use the powers entrusted to them
We are shown the only way by which
the individual and the nation can
emancipate themselves into the fuller
and higher life The method is by

matter was distributed The results
came in time. The tanks were oiled
and the breeding spots for mosquitoes
were removed. Of course there was
the impetus of possible danger to in
ject enthusiasm. But is there any
thing more true that "in the midst of
life we are in DEATH" In the North
propaganda is made for the Tubercu-
losis League. AN ounce of prevention
is worth a pound of cure And the
white plague takes not as many vic
Tins as it did in former years, and
this saving of many lives, nay of fam
lilies, has been effected through
courses of popular instruction on this
most deadly of diseases in the num-
Der of victims it claims and the money
losses it entails. The South has its
peculiar problems of life and death
to consider. There is yellow fever
which, owing to the investigations
made, has been robbed of it's virul-
ence! Then we have malaria, which
in part is said to be due to the same
cause as yellow fever. Then we have
the hookWorm, to the investigation OF
which disease Mr.. Rockefeller was
lately reported to have given $1,000
600. And we rejoice at the liberality
of the STANDARD Oil" magnate al
though. however much other vlclnlt1es
may need the application of the Ia
boratory Investigations made, we liv-
ing in this part of Texas are fortu-
nate in this respect. Our health Of
ficer, DR.. Williams, at the time is re-
ported to have said that it would be
unnecessary for him to attend the
medical congress held at Austin for
the purpose of investigation mas
much as there was not a single case
of this disease-germ producing lazi-
ness and inactivity.
The same methods of the Tubercu-
losis League could be employed IN
teaching people preventive measure
against those diseases peculiar to our
climate and environment The body
is the sanctuary in which the spirit
lives and above all things we should
keep perfect the home of the spirit.
Rabbi Hillel some centuries ago,
watched the Roman soldiers washing
the statues which they had erected
in Jerusalem. He said to his disci-
pies who stood around him: How much
care should we take in the study and
publication of our bodies, seeing how
these Roman soldiers wash these sta
tues which are only made of stone

Some time ago we received a pub
LEGATION entitled "The University of
The People In it were outlined the
night school system and lectures
which the board of public education
was giving to the rank and file of New
York's teeming population. No chain
is stronger than it's weakest link
New York City, the heart of the coun-
try, can only be as strong as an
education population properly and
wisely use their powers. The first
thing to do is to develop the latent
possibilities of the individual. First a
Niagara Falls and then afterwards
conversion into electrical power.
This university of the people has been
established for those whom youth
of hardship has deprived of an edu-
cation. The many causes of study
provided reminds one of a bountiful
repast at which different foods are
present in accordance with the tastes
and needs of those who are gathered
around the banqueting table.
This idea of establishing the great
est of all universities, "The UNIVERSE
ty of the People" is gradually taking
possession of our great Republic. OF
course only a few places like New
Yory City, can afford the generosity
to give "to every one that thirsteth"
waters freely to drink from the wells
of public instruction.
But throughout our great land is
springing up that system Of popular
lectures which is the means of i'm
parting great stores of knowledge at
a nominal cost.
This idea of ''leavening the Masses"
of educating them to a knowledge
and application of fundamental prin-
ciples is worth all the money spent.
No one will ever be able to count up
in dollars and cents the amount of
good which came from a popular lee
the time in Alexandria, La, and these
lectures were delivered to large audi
ences at the Opera House. BY dia-
grams and charts, the subject was
made clear; pamphlets and reading

distance behind them Sidney Moeur was driving a team of rather fractious horses to an open buggy. Mir. Moeur slacked up little to cross one of the cross walks and as the rig ran up on the team, the pole broke from the neck yoke and dropped to the ground. The team immediately commenced to run was so near the rig occupied by the two girls. that it was impossible for their driver to avoid cofliding with it.
 The buggy occupied by the two young ladies was almost demolished by the force of the contact. The top was carried away al the first shock and the two girls went with it. They were really protected by the top and probably all that saved them from seri- ous injury was the safety it afforded Their horse was caught before it ran any distance, and the team was later caught before any more damage re- suited

LUST LIKE PAPA" Children Glad to Have Their Drink Like Their Parents.

More than any of the old folks realize, the little folks at the table like to have food and drink the same as Father and Mother
 Perhaps you can remember the time when fork-full of the meat or potato or a sip from the cup that your Father or Mother was using seemed to pos sess some remarkable merit and fla vour.
 If children can be given a strong. nourishing food drink such as Postum it satisfies their desire to have things like the older folks. and at the same time gives them drink they love and fatten on.
 A lady up in Oakes. N. D., says that since their family have been drinking Postum the children are stronger and better than ever before, and are so glad that they can have coffee to drink just like papa"
 The husband and father was taken sick with very severe attack of stom- ach trouble and had to give up work, being confined to the house for some weeks, suffering greatly. For some time he had been in the habit of drink ing coffee for breakfast, and tea for dinner and supper. The wife writes: After reading some of your advertise ments we wondered if coffee and tea had not been the cause of his sick ness.
 We finally decided to have him quit tea and coffee and try Postum. He dates his recovery from the day he commenced to drink Postum, and has not had to stop work from sickness since then.
 Some years ago I tried package of Postum and did not like it. but l know now that it was because I did not make it right. It is easy to make good Postum if the simple directions on the package are followed. The Oply failure is when people do not boil it long enough.

JOHN MATHIS FOUND GUILTY.
Slayer OF DR.. 9. w. Hickman Must
Serve Life Sentence.

Augusta, Ga, May 4-John Mathis,
the negro accused of the murder of
Dr.. G. w. Hickman. was to-day found
guilty as indicted. The jury, how
ever, brought in recommendation
to mercy. Under the Georgia law,
this insured sentence for life and
such sentence was pronounced. The
assassination Of Dr.. Hick man has
been Il sensation here for months. He
was one Of the most prominent citi-
zenS here, and Il practicing physician
of note. He called at the home Of
his brother, in Summerville, on Feb
his return to his residence, short
distance away, he was shot to death
and his pockets were rifled Among
the articles stolen from his body was
his watch Two months later this
negro Mathis offered this watch in
pawn. With this clue to guide them,
the police threw a complete chain of
circumstantial evidence about Mathis.
During the trial the court gave to
the accused, as counsel EX-Congress-
man w. II. Fleming and A. l.. Frank
lin, well known criminal lawyer.
These attorneys by evidence in which
no name was mentioned, set it up
that a "mysteriouS man" was seen
to leave the scene Of the murder the
night Of the assassination. The
counsel held that this "mysterious"
parsonage was the murderer. In this
way sufficient doubt was raised to
secure from the jury the recommen-
datiOn to mercy.
