Of course, an interdict must have
derived its origin from some hidden
source, otherwise, it would never
have existed This force was the
tendency of the papacy to mix in
if not control the affairs of State.
A Pope of those ages could no more
resist meddling with empire than if
he were diplamat instead of the
Lords annOinted
If a certain king of mighty realm
happened to show a little ack-
nowledgement of the Pope's spiri
tual authority over all rulers, the
Pope had two alternatives, that of
communicating the King himself,
which consisted of cutting him off
from all physical and spiritual com
fort; or, of placing the entire
country of that particular King
under an interdick, which meant all
that which has been briefly ex-
planned herein.
Let us thank our stars that inter
diets are practically impossible to-
day, that is, in this country, due to
our policy of religious freedom.

Then the whole thing was gone all

all about the reason the operator had
to turn subscriber over to Informa-
ton, saying the girls gave out so
many wrong numbers that an arbitrary
rule had to be made. He couldn't ex
plain why his voice sounded like it
came from China, but sold he would
look into it. He didn't know why the

were of the antiquated type. He

The Interdict.

People who have looked up the
word, 'interdict," have found little
more than something about debar
ring and prohibiting. A dictionary
pressed for space with some 100000
words and their meanings, cannot
give one a thorough understanding
of a word like this with all of its
historical significance. 1t is I'm
over the pages of some reliable his
tory for the complete meaning.
Few today have a clear concept of
this simple word, yet when it was
mentioned in the days when the ''in-
terdict' held sway, it had the power
of making the haughtiest monarch
tremble on a level with the lowest
beggar. 1t made States bow in sub
mission to papacy; it made the politi-
cal give way to the dominating
church When an imperious Pope
sat pompously on his dias' and gave
breath to this decree, it became at
once of tremendous import and cast
a chill over the country it was in
tended for, as though the ecclestical
potentate had been the North god
himself. 1t literally froze the life
blood of the country; human pulsa
tions ceased until the ban of death
had been raised from the land.
In those days (about the 9TH and
Sth Centuries) the mOnasteries re
presented everything that can now
be included in our everyday life,
religion, education, trade and com
merce agriculture, medical practice
and many other minor phases of life.
Imagine that all business, profess
sions, trade and commerce, agri-
culture, were suddenly brought to
standstill in this country, and one
gets fairly good impression not only
of the tyrranical power then pos
essed by the Pope, but also a most
vivid picture of the absolute barren
ness OF a country over which the in
terdict had been cast. Think what
this state Of affairs meant! Today it
would mean, provided this country
were of a uniform religion, that
money would be worse than useless,
for all the places where one could
spend it would be closed; all the
schools, universities and Libraries,
would have to bar their doors until
released by papal edict; there would
be no intercourse with foreign coun-
tries, and our shipping would rot
and rust lying idle at the docks;
fields would cease to be titled and
the farmers implements would be
laid away to corrode and decay
By far the worst and most terrifying
of all these evils would be the shut
ting of the gates of hospitals and
denial of all medical aid. Disease
would be the outcome of this cessa-
ton of work, and with no medical
attendance conditions would set in

Heels to Match Walk.

On the third day OF the New York
run received letter from shoamak-
er. who called my attention TO the fact
that the woman's gait and her shoes
did not match. Her heels were run
down on the outside, whereas the walk
she assumed on the stage must inevi-
tably cause her shoes 10 run over on

had escaped the notice Of everybody

Though Mr.. Murphy called his work

1t was entitled "Jim's Wife, The
plot was as follows: In the first act
Jim had no wife, but he took his girl
to dance Action They danced. In
act second came the great scene"
The scene was caused by the fact that
Jim's girl danced with another man.
Jim felt impelled to kill him, but he
refrained, rejecting that such things
did not occur in the best circles and
would thus be socially unpleasing TO
his lady. The curtain fell on his act
Of self sacrifice In not killing the other
dancer. In act third there was still
more action. .Iim's girl rewarded him
