Vatican's Conditions.
Rome, April 3.-The audience
which it was believed x-Presldent
Roosevelt would have with the
Pope on Tuesday next, will not
occur, owing to conditions which
the vatican has imposed, and
which Mr.. Roosevelt refuses to
accept.
Although the definite %negotla-
tions relative to the audience
ended before Mr.. Roosevelt lett
Egypt, the announcement was
withheld until after Mr.. Roose-
welt reached Rome tonight, at the
solicitation O. his American Cath
Ollie friends here, who believed
that in the meantime the vatican
might change it's attitude. One
of the former Presidents Amerl'
can friends, who had been with
him in Egypt, came to Rome
yesterday, without, however, any
authorization from Mr. Roosevelt
and %interceded with Cardinal
Merry Delval, the papal secretary,

ton, which as it now stands. has
caused o real sensation in Rome,
although it was not entirely I'M

The history of the nege tiations
is as follows:
While at Cairo Mr.. Roosevelt
receceived the following telegram
from Ambassador Leishman, d lted

mgr. Kennedy, rector of the
American Catholic College in re-
ply to an inquiry which l caused
to be made, requests that the fol

GARLAND PROVES BAD CHARACTER.
Questionable Methods Prove Unprofitd lie
to Salisbury LAWYERS Standing.

Saturday much of the time
of the County Court was
taken up by a case entitled
&C. w. Garland VS.. John j..
Stewart, guardian, and Ar
thur Turner" This is
the elimination of several
previous suits on the part OF
Garland to inter~meddle be-
tween guardian and ward i'll
the management and conduct
of said wards estate. Mr..
Stewart had been legally APP
pointed guardian for Turner,
who had been in the employ
of the Southern Railway and
was injured in a wreck, to re-
ceive his accident insurance
and to perform such other
duties generally assigned
guardians. Turner's injuries
we're such as to give him
ground for damage with good
prospects Of recovery. This,
Garland fully realized and
seems to have made efforts to
control the ward and settles
ment with the railroad with
out the consent or knowledge
Of the guardian. To stay
proceedings until the ward,
Turner, became Of age, Gar>
land is alleged to have en-
1eavored to keep guardian
and ward separate. 10 this
end Turner went, or was sent
at different times to points in
South Carolina and to VIM
ston~Salem, where, it seems,
Garland visited him and fur>
nished him money. having
utterly failed in his various
suits, schemes and tricks, and
being baked at every turn,
Garland, the pure in heart,
finally seeks the return Of She
money said to have been ad~
vanced Turner purely "out
Of sympathy and a regard for
humanity" brought this suit
and took up the time Of the
court. The suit was for 1925
and resulted in Judgment be-
ing given for $50, from which
both plaintiff and defendants
took an appeal.
During the trial Garland's
character was attacked and
reputable citizens swore that
he was a man Of bad char
acter.

cur salvation nearer than when we

ress might have been more rapid had
the people OF God been more faith
full. And yet the entire history OF
truth and the analogies OF faith teach
that moral reformation is both in
ward and outward, and most emphat-
iaally that II can not be FASTENED by
external statute. Now. the theory
OF prohibition grows impatient OF

real moral problem. which In this
question forces the church and the
moralist, you find something far
more imperative and important than

That knot must be united by pa

have been a high fence around the
, tree OF the knowledge of good and
evil, so that Eve could not reach 1t.
Consider how great misery such a
prohibltive statute would have saved
the race.
The point OF objection. then. Is
clear. Prohibition is not to be urged
by the church and Christian moral
| ity as a remedy for moral Ills. We
may not teach society that prohibi-
' ton is required by Christian morals.
We may not teach the drunkard that
his salvation from the curse OF rum
is to be found only In prohibition.
We may not teach the youth their
best safeguard is to be made by pro-
hibition. We may not teach the
world that Christian virtue and man.
hood require any civil law for either
their creation or their preservation.
To do this is false TO the principles
OF Christian truth and Is treason to
the Lord. But In the predicament Of
doing just this very thing. this the
DRY of prohibition stands, when
urged as a mora! precept and en-
forced with the sanctions OF relig-
ion Verify. not on such food az
prohibition brings will men grow to
the stature of moral manhood Put
your prohibitory enactments on the
statute book. make them operative
and successful. and then the world
will have taken a step backward In
true moral progress: and Christian
doctrine and manhood. so far forth
as they shall demand thereon. will
have receded from their divine ideal.
3. For. In the next place, az u
conclusion that Is Irresistible and a
fact beyond denial. It follows that
the acceptance by the church OF this
moral theory OF prohibition, as a nee
essary means OF meeting and subdu-
Ing moral evil. Is confession OF
failure and OF hopeless weakness on
the part of Christianity. Such fail
ure has certainly been charged by a
number OF advocates cor temperance
and prohibition, whose assaults upon
the church have been more bitter
and virulent than upon the rum pow
er. The adoption by the church OF
this modern shibboleth OF so-called
moral reform virtually confesses that
this false charge Is nue. II goes TO
the foot. 1t declares that Christian
| mn hnAp To- Aat he
pei Is unequal to saving men from
the sin OF intemperance. however eff
heient II may be in coping with 9TH
er forms OF sin; thet spiritual power
must be supplemented by civil law
in order to redeem the world: that
the preacher OF righteousness, tenn
perance and judgment TO come" must
be attended by the constable, TO give
to at least one OF his doctrines the
desired effect
There Is no evasion OF this con-
clusion. II is 80 plain as TO be self
evident. Instead OF relying on Gods
spirit. this preacher OF u moral pro-
hibitiop puts his trust In fallible
legislators. Instead OF using spirit
ual influence. resorts to the tricks
and treacherles OF politicians. In
stead OF holding up the pure law OF
God, he seeks TO submit to "ordi-
nanees; touch not, taste not. handle
not. after the doctrines and com
mandments OF man." against which

want a healthy body and a hap
py disposition, don't waste your
nervous energy unnecessarily.
In health, the human body gem
crates and distributes to the va
rious organs a certain amount of
nerve-force each day, in addition
to holding a nerve supply in the
brain; therefore, if there comes
an excessive demand from one
part, it is first supplied from the
reserve store, but when this Is
exhausted it must be furnished
at the expense Of some other or
gan Of the body. Thus ii is that
headaches, neuralgia, Indigestion

the result Of eye-strain, which is

the least suspected cause Of
nerve waste. We are specialists
