THE GRACE DARLING OF
 AMERICA.

Ida Lewis the Grace Darling of America. has gone to her reward. and the sympathy and love symbolizing flower were so numerous that they could not be taken to her lighthouse home where she was born and died
 IL is not likely that this brave, mus cular, seafaring woman would have cut dash anywhere in her best at tire Her assets were her vsIor and her -heartedness- best ability her strong arm and knowledge of boa ting which made her the equal of any man on the water
 Miss Lewis was a life saver She was only lS years old when she put out in her boat and rescued four young men who had been upset in the hay. A little later three drunken nav sailors stove a hole in their craft Two of them swan ashore: Miss Lewis rescued the other. In 1868 she saved a small boy who had clung to a spar all night. In the next year she aided her brother. Hosea, to save two men from capsized sailbOat The citizens of Newport presented her a handsome boat. and a special act of congress, after the death of her father made her keeper of the light.
 Ii is likely that Miss Lewis was as stylish as Grace Darling and many other women who have distinguished themselves for ability and valor. As rule. it may be truthfully said the plsinest of women in all countries have made the greatest nares.
 The nation feels momentary grief when such a noble life comes to it's close.

ACTIVITY IN THE INTEREST OF
 CLEANLINESS.

It would be commendable if pro- fessedly Christian communities were more active in protecting the charae- ter and good name of the town-the place they cherish as home
 The Ansonia Sentinel. noting that the New London Municipal Art soci ety purposes not only to keep up its war against unsightly billboards, but to add to it's task the placing of a ban on the sale of vulgar postal cards, proceeds to say: What a municipal art society can properly undertake along these lines. may also be appro priately tried hy societies of less pre- -tentious names in other places. Nil- lage improvement societies, business mems associations. boards of trade manufacturers clubs and various or ganizations for mutual hetterment can find in these problems something to help keep them busy. and which are well worth while"
 :. It is not the special business of any organization to keep the moral stand ard of any community high, but for the interest and well-being of all. The moral cleanliness of a town is q first class advertisement for it's growth and advancement

THE DEMAND FOR COAL.

Every new hot-air or steam heated house means an increase of the de- mand for anthracite coal. In 1909 the increased demand represented 45,O0e,- 900 tons
 The coal mined in that year has just been totaIled at 1.1l3,000,0o0 tons, valued at two billion dollars. Altogether about three million persons were en- gagged two years ago in the mining of coal.
 Since Sir William Ramsay's warn. ing as to what will happen when we have dug out of the earth all the coal there is in il, these totals begin to assume some importance.
 The United States led all the world in coal production in 1909. with the staggering amount of 41S,93S,0e9 me tric tons This was nearly twice as much as Germany mined. and a third more than Great Britain.
 The house. heating problem is att tracting the attention of inventors, for it is plain that new means for produc- ing cheap heat is going to be urgent as the years roll by.

eRIsToL's DEFEATED CANDIDATE

George W. Hull. the socialist who came near being elected the first may OF of the new city of Bristol, speaks like a man any city might feel proud of
 He does not favor a recount of the votes. Writing the Bristol Press. he says
 There is little doubt but that the entire city election could be inyah- dated for two errors one occurring before the election and one on election day But no one who cares anything for Bristol would go thus far in throwing the community into the chaos and confusion which such a step would involve, as it would leave the city entirely without officials.
 '-l am convinced that considera ble of the pressure for recount comes from those who have money on the election l understand that some of the bets are still held up My advice is not tn pay them. \ real debt is ar obligation on which honor and the law demand payment But a bet is a debt of dishonor, has no legal standing and should never be made or paid Per- haps there never was a local election al which so much money was at etAhf- hlS cpuulliOn IS wrong for three reasons.
 ~ Noung men who are single should not contract the gambling habit and get the feverish desire to secure some thing for nothing.
 Married men owe it to their fam flies not 10 waste their money in such a manner I know men whose wives and children needed the money which they gamblcd away at this election.
 Most serious of all, men are led to work for certain candidates, not through principle. but because they hare money at stake. This activity has a pernicious influence on politics and deserves condemna tion'
 Mr. Hull is sure to be admired for his healthy sentiments. and it is not likely Bristol would have had cause ic have been resretfni had he won in- stead of lost to the democrats by ten votes

THE BENEFIT OF THE DOUBT.

Too many men in public life are quick to give the benefit of the doubt 10 private interests rather than to the public welfare
 This is where Dr. Wiley is a marked exception to the rule. for he gives mo- ice when he is in doubt he will side with the consumer every time. This is why he Is popular with the people.
 Why should he side with private interests. since they are the possessors of the enlightenins facts and could readily clear his doubts away and would if they thought it would be profitable It is what is withheld which confuses such man.
 There is no intention on the part of Dr Wiley 10 do any business injury that is being conducted in an honora- ole and upright way. What he is try ing to protect the people from creates invalids and is a curse to the nation.
 The people need the rugged, honest protection he has given them for years and will continue to maintain.

Q.-Is it true that the "HishWay of Holiness" is opened up now and that the way Of salvation is so plain that a ''wayfaring man though fool shall not err therein" (isaiah xxxv, 8-1o)? If the way is so plain and clear and simple that a foolish. person need make no mistake about it, then why is there so
 much confusion among the learned clereynen. Doctors of Divinity, etc, as to the proper methods of salvation, some teaching one thing and some an ether?
 As an honest steptc and one seek ing to know the way of salvation, can you direct me to this "Hishway?"
 Answer.-we are not surprised that you have failed to find the High way" The Lord Jesus referring to the conditions of salvation during this present Gospel age. declares that Straight is the gate and marrow is the way that leadeth unto life and few there he that find it As matter of fact the Scriptures point out three ways: The broadway. leading to de- struction,' The narroW way to life.
 and the Highway of Holiness. ] (Matthew vii, IS, If: Isaiah xxxV, S. a.) It is very evident from the con- 1 6itionS which you mention that the later of these ways has not been in existence thus far but as the Scrip lures affirm. it will be opened up for the world at the time of our Lord s second coming Then when Satan, that old lion q Peter V, S), is bound i (Reveation xx. ?, the Prophets $ ! words shall be fulfilled. No lion shall 1 be there and the redeemed of the Lord (the world or maakind) shall go up thereon with everlasting joy and 1 singing upon their heads, and sorrow i and signing shall fee away.
