SECOND COMING
OF THE CHRIST
War In Turkey VIII Cause It Accord
Ing to Seventh Day
Adventists.


WASHINGTON. Oct. To- The sec
ond coming of Christ and the end OF
the world are presaged by the war
in which Turkey and italy are engag-
ed. This is the view held by the Sew
enth Day Adventists, according to
Rev. Kit c. Russell of Tacoma Park,
d. c.. an exponent of that faith.
The Adventists have maintained
for many years. said Mr. Russell,
that the refusal of the powers to
help the Turk. his final expulsion from
Europe and the scramble for his ter
ritory by the nations would be the
signal for the second appearance OF
Christ. The basis for this belief is
the prophesies in the Bible. In the
Book Of Daniel is found: .'And He
shall plant the tabernacles OF His
palace between the seas and the glor-
ious holy mount; yet He shall come
to His end and none shall help Him.
The parsonage referred to is con-
ceded by commentators to be none
other than the Turkish empire. And
the text shows that this power shall
come to his end, and none shall help
him Then Christ shall come and de.
liver His people, every one that shall
be found written in the book"

VALUE OF NATIONS HEALTH.

DR.. Harvey w. Wiley, chief Of the
federal bureau of chemistry, figures
that the health of the nation is worth
$54O, 900. 100000. He makes this esti-
mate on the basis Of 5000 per capita
earning of 45,O0O,0o0 adults, each rep
resenting capital Of $4,000 invested
at 5 per cent. The health of the ma
ton, he concludes, Is an asset that
should be conserved even more care
fully than other natural resources
The chief dangers that beset this vast
national asset, he finds, are the inher-
itance of disease or Of weakened
bodies, poor nutrition, unwholesome
and adulterated food, diseases con-
tracted through infection and unsani-
tary conditions, and because Of a lack
of hygienic knowledge. National
and state activities making for the
public health should be unified, he
says, and in working toward that end
the establishing of national depart
ment of health, he believes, is almost
a necessity
DO not be deferred by the cry that
goes up of doctors trust, (" he says.
1.-THE wise physicians are in favor OF
such a department, not because 1t is
Ia physicians trust but because It
is for the good of the people. The
selfish physician will be glad to see
the present condition of affairs con-
tinue, because it tends to produce dis
ease. and thus throws into his hands
an increased practice. The altruistic
physician believes in prophylaxis
rather than in therapeutics.
These are conclusions reached by
the government chemist in an address
before the National Conservation
congress in Kansas City. Their sound
ness and force can not we'll be contro-
verified, and they will meet with the
emphatic Endorsement of thousands OF
persons who take special interest In
this matter. The conservation OF
human vitality is public duty that
must not be shirked, and in this con-
nection the federal government has a
deep responsibility.

MENTAL INTEMPERANcE.

The chancellor of the university oil
Nebraska, at the opening OF that IN
stitution for the fall term, rendered
a public service by calling attention
to the evils of mental intemper-
ance." The other sort of intemper-
ance exists aplenty, he admitted, and
he regretted it, but he felt that 1t
should not blind public eyes to the
mental dissipation now 80 common.
1.-THE nation he said, 'is just recover
ing from a great mental deoaucn.
Extravaganza in speech and wrtiEs
has been the rule. Reckless denun-
citation of patriotic and CONSCIENTIOUS
men, yellowness in magazines ana
other publications have disgraced our
era"
Chancellor Avery believes We are
now entering into calmer and saner
period. 1t is to be hoped we are. AS
he saws we have had quite enough OF
"mouthy madness" the spoutlngs on
public questions of men unlniormed
and who do not care to be informed
lest truth make their utterances less
sensational. III Inc op -
near wise statesmen with SO many OF

are over-capitalized and commit the
same practices; If few worthless
and drunken students are found b

student in all universities is worthless

EDITOR wHEELER,s REVENGE

Speaking through the columns OF
the Peoria Herald Transcript, George
Fitch voices the belief that the Har-
rison-Hearst political publication COM
bine flattered themselves little
when they fancied that they could
discourage Editor Wheeler of the
Quincy Journal by beating him over
the head with cane in the recent
convention. Mr. Fitch thus states
the situation:
MIR. Wheeler is not as young as he
once was but he is gentleman of
great tenacity of opinion and most
sweeping and corrosive vocabulary. 1t
is true he was endorsed and rumpled
by score of patriotic sergeants-at-
arms from Chicago but that little dis
agreeableness lasted for a minute. On
the other hand, Mr. Wheeler's paper
comes out every afternoon, Sundays
excepted, and has wide deep pages
into which the white haired, red
necked Democrat from Adams county
is wont to insert his opinions and
views on things. 1t is quite likely
that having returned home, Mr..
Wheeler will proceed to formulate
opinions on Harrison and Hearst and
they will be eagerly read by all who
love his swift, short-syllabled skin
removers. Wheeler talking about
Hearst will be a longer and more inter
esting performance than that of
Hearst booting Wheeler"
Mr.. Fitch sympathizes deeply with
Editor Wheeler, but he can't under
stand why the latter persists in hang
| ing around the Democratic party. He
tells Mr.. Wheeler that if he will as
semble In convention with those siren
uous patriots, Sullivan and Hearst
he must expect to get jostled now and
then. He invites Wheeler to come
over into one of the twenty-five wings
of the Republican party in Illinois
where he will find comfort and
peace" Coupled with the invitation
is the assurance that the grand ole
party does things in more quiet and
gentlemanly manner.

IT'S A FUNNY WORLD.
Everyone Helping a Little Toward
This Autumn's Big shrlnkase in
Values.

Springfield Republican: There has
lately been shrinkage of something
like $S00,O00,00O in the market value
of stocks traded in on the New York
exchange: 1t is the Wall street view
that this has been caused by the
"trust-busting" activities of the feder-
al government and the general agita-
ton against corporations. But for this
1t is held that nothing of the sort
would have happened.
The British Bankers magazine fig
ures out for September a shrinkage
in the market value of securities on
the London stock exchange of &c.,
1000, and for August shrinkage of
973, 1853, 000-a total for the two
months OF s125,934.00O, or s629.670,-
COO. And the American conditions
which have been described do not
lagely or approximately prevail in
Great Britain or roundabout.
To larger causes must be ascribed
much of our own financial upset.
There is great popular discomfort ev-
erywhere and we are simply sharers
in it. High prices and the maladjust-
ment Of incomes play their part in
this creation. Crop failures play their
part. Perhaps the extraordinary
weather conditions which have caus-
ed the crop shortages have had their
mental effects. Special popular griev-
ances here and there around the
world raise sentimental local storms
which act and react upon and from
other peoples through subtle psyche.
logical forces and seem hardly to
need the modern means of instan.
taneous news communication to
spread their disturbance. We talk OF
peace and arbitration and arbitration
treaties, and in the midst Of 1t all a
part Of Europe actually goes to war
as another part barely lodges VIC
lent collision.
It's a mad world anyway, and es
pecially SO Just now. Why Is it that
once in SO often, say so years, the
civilized human race should appear
as seized by common and unac
countable impulse, like pack of sup
posedly good Indians, to break from
the reservation and indulge in {
roaming series of war dances? Have
we not yet grown up to the full meas
ure OF life and conduct demanded b,
the restraints of civilization? Are WI
still subject, collectively as well al
individually, to periodical reversion'
to the domination of primitive in
stincts? But whatever may harper
to Europe, as America held itself i'm
mune from the revolutionary infec
ton which seized nearly all Europ'
! in the '40's, so will 1t now.

Bank exchanges last week made a
satisfactory increase over the cor
responding period year ago, the to-
tai for all leading cities in. the Unit
ed States aggregating $3,O66, 633, 1855,
a gain of 6.3 per cent. This favorable
showing is more pronounced at New
York city than at outside cities, al
though every one reporting except
Boston, Cincinnati, Kansas City and
Louisville, makes larger returns, and
the exhibit by the leading center is
especially gratifying. inasmuch as the
gain is owing less to stock market
activity than has been the case of
late.
