PLACES OF CHEAP ENTERTAIN.

While the masses enjey the places of cheap entertainment, trade con demns them. because they offer a new avenue for the expenditure of money. and increase the per cent of it's losses because of those who neglect their obliEstiens to gratify their tastes for amusement.

THE BATTLE IN MAINE.

There is no expectancy on the part of those who are carrying on the bat tie against prohibition in Maine, which is to be settled at the ballot box on Monday, of making that a rum state. 1t is simply a fight to get for the cities and the popular summer resorts the chance to procure license to have liquor sold within their limits.
 Name has had half century of varied experience with prohibition and it is not to the discredit of the law that it is alleged to have failed: but rather to those who have defied the law to make failure of it. The advocates of constitutional prohibition feel sure that it will be continued by good majority on Monday but should the majority endorse instead the local option law there is no doubt that a great majority of the Maine towns will vote dry, and Mainn will, like Connecticut. and other local option states. show majority of towns against license.
 The summer resort business is a strong factor in the present fight, and it would be unfortunate should the re suit show small majority, since that would mean d continuous future fight over the question. Let us nope, Wnlch- ever way the vote goes on Monday, that the majority will be decisive enough to settle the matter for years to come.
 The friends of constitutional prohi- bition claim to have made a thorough canvass of the state and to feel sure that the policy of Maine since 1884 will be approved by the people. and that constitutional prohibition will still be continued

 Q.-Do we properly understana Mat thew xxv. 46. and Mark ix, 43, 43, to teach that the finally impenitent will live eternaIIy7 # so, then will not sin continue eternaIiy and in that event would not God be responsible for the eternal continuance of sin?
 Answer.-The Lord declared through the Apostle: The wages of sin is death. but the gift of God is eternal
 life through Jesus Christ our Lord tRomans vi. 23). Sin results ultimately in death. and death means the oppo- site of life. and none get eternal life except by and through the merit of Christ Jesus. So the Scriptures de- clare that the righteous shall go away iato eternal fife It follows then that rssne except the righteous will receive eternal life. and that the unrighteous will be destroyed. The greatest punish ment known to the laws of our land is depriving one of life. Destruction of life is punishment of the severest kind. and the Scriptures show that the pun ishment of the wicked will be to de- 'prive them Of lfe-destroy them. tPsalm eyfv. 20; Acts iii 23,) The Scriptures cited by you agree with this. We quote from the E,mphatic Dia slott. recognized amongst scholars IS one of ths best translations: And they shall go forth to the everla sting cutting off: but the righteous to ever lasting life"

ARGUMENTS THE SAME BOTH
 SIDES THE LINE

The prospect for reciprocity appears tO be looking brighter in Canada as the day for the elections approaches and the object on both sides of the line seems 10 be relief from high prices.
 Mayor Taylsr Of Vancouver explains that British Columbia is for reciprocity because of the hope that it will bring relief from high prices In Vsncou- Ner." he says, prices are from p to SO per cent higher than in Seattle, only iss miles south of us
 Looking at the situation conserve lively. there Is no doubt that both sides would by it find much needed relief. and that neither would be ruined by 1t. Those who most consistently oppose reciprocity are those whs enjoy large pecunisry advantages in both countries from having things remain as they now are
 The estimate of the wheat crop in the Canadian northwest for the pres fnt year reaches the enormous total of over 19S.06e. .0e0.e0o bushels. In addi- tion to this there will be an oat crop of nearly 2s5000 O0o bushels. and of barley and flax 3s.OeO 0ee bushels
 This material prosperity, the Ottawa Citizen says, will all he jeopsrdized should reciprocity succeed. There is no truth in this. of course: but it is safe 10 imagine that prices to the masses would thereby be somewhat modified on both sides of the line
 While it is admitted that the out look in Canada. at the commencement of the campaign for reciprocity was not promising. change is now mani Testing itself which indicates that when the elections are held on Sep teuoer 2ist the liberal party will make an increase in its present majority in parliament. and that reciprocity will be approved

We have widespread conviction in America that education is worth while. What lordly gifts to educational work!

There is no more reason why one should feel sad when the goldenrod is at it's height, than when the birds are gathering in flocks in the pastures for their migration south, which is happening about the same time. To those who recognize beauty, every sea- son has it's charm; and they under stand what Heinrich Heine meant when he wrote: God manifests him. self in different degrees through diff ferent things, but all things partake of divinity.' There is really no dead season of the year. Nature is the place where all things work together for good. Jack Frost and Old Bereas ap- pear to be as necessary as Flora, if they are less understood and less ap- preciated. Every snowflake has it's distinct beauty and every stone it's concreted history.
