Brockton. Mass. Dec. 27.-Rev. Or.
Albert Marion Hyde of Porter Congre-

do not speak of the old gent and

I DO not invest your nickel in a
glass OF beer then afterward criticize
the other fellow who has invested his
nickel i'm a savings bank. Beer checks
and savings bank checks, as invest
ments are not i'm the same class
DO not put the money of your
tailor ana your wash woman in 81 OPP
era seats and 81 theater tickets. They
may prefer to spend their earnings IN
some other way.
! do not measure your job entire

In these ways.

brisk. The coincidence has been often
noted. for the metal industries are
more or less related Certain IL Is
that increased building operations
throughout the east and middle west
have caused better demand for steel
than has been experienced in a Ions
time. The railroads also have been
buying heavily OF steel in anticipation
OF extensions and betterments during
the coming year. The larger eastern
cities have almost without exception
reported unusual activity in building
and this has helped TO create conf
denee among those Industries that sup
ply every class Of building material.
All this is pleasant news for the

RUSSIA TO RETALlATE.

The news that Russia is preparing
10 retaliate by boosting tariff duties
enormously as against the United
States is not unexpected 1t was APP
parent when the determined en-
deavor began 70 get all our citizens
rights without discrimination in Rus
sla, which finally led TO the abroga-
ton Of the 1892 treaty. that the Rus
sian empire would endeavor 70 re-
taliate. A scheming underground
fighter is Russia; so that for every
move in the open IT is well to consider
two made underground.
But In this case a tariff war would
cut sharply two ways. Ana most sig
nifcant Of all is the plain statement
that the leading Jew institutions in
England have decided 10 urge the
abrogation Of the Anglo-Russiar
treaty. which differentiates against
the English Jews.
Back Of these same institutions are
the greatest bankers in the world as
great a power in international politics
as in finance. The argument whicf
they raise that England can protec

States will not stop there. 1t vii

iTALVs CAUSE THAT OF
CHRISTIANITY.


The invasion of Tripoli by the ltal-
ians may be, as Bishop Williams says
the most unjustihable war on record
(whatever historians may have To say
to the contrary. but that fact will be
determined only when Italy shows to
what purpose she intends To put her
conquest.
The greatest menace TO civilization
and Christianity in the world today
Is not the rapid rise of Japan to the
position OF a great power, but the
spread OF Northumberland in north
ern Africa. The Senoussi have been
carrying on an active propaganda for
years past. especially among the Ne
groes who compose the great mass OF
the population of the continent, and
the success that has attended their
efforts has caused the Christian mis-
sionaries 10 shiver Avith apprehension.
They realize that TO the ignorant semi
savage blacks who are poygamiats
naturally. the religion of the prophet
appeals with far greater force and et-
feet than does that of the Christ, for
il appeals To all his baser Instincts.
There are already 7O,OO0,O 600 Moham-
medans in Africa, and if TO these are
added the $4,000 600 pagans, they will
form a power to be reckoned with In
the near future, the brute force of the
Negro directed by the keen brain OF
the Arab.
The European powers have Ions
recognized this menace and il has only
