Her Idea of Love.

Il grew up with my romantic ideal

mantle ideal was that believed fully
and firmly that there was some mys.
FERROUS power in love that would
henceforth glorify every moment Of
my life. -....--
"True, some Of my friends had tried
to explain to me that there was q
'glamor' which would wear off, but ]
laughed at them. - -s~"-
Il insisted that I was not at all SEN
ttmental; that knew we were poor:
that was quite willing and anxious
to work-and that I was going to be
happy!
well, have been happy, strangely
happy,
Possibly may be wrong, but It a
a theory Of mine that few men spend
much time and thought on the bust
ness Of making their wives happy
The wife, more than any other crea.
ture, has to make her own happiness
Her world is made by her way O,
thinking, and her way of thinking
about the man she parries is the key
note OF their natural happiness"

TOO MUCH OF A GOOD THING
Duck Raiser Found Pepsin Of Consid-
cradle Value, But He Has Dis
continued Its Use,

Refusing to eat any kind of food
offered to them, Charles Koch Of Port
Chester, N. Y, concluded that his
flock of one dozen ducks had a form
OF dyspepsia and decided to doctor
them himself. His method was not
entirely original, for he procured pep
sin tablets and, dissolving them in
water, he contrfved to get the fluid
down their threats with the aid of a
metal tube. Releasing them one by
one he sat down in the house to see
what happened. ...
Instead of declining their usual pro-
vender, they ate it with avidity and
came back for more. Scraps from the
family dinner table also disappeared
In a similar manner. Delighted with
the success of his experiment Koch
administered additional doses of fluid
pepsin~ Ducks eggs were one result.
But now the entire hock seems to
be always hungry. That has its disa-
greeabie features. q Seven O'Clock in
the morning is the customary feeding
time for the ducks, but III is different
now. The ducks know where Koch
sleeps, and they assemble under his
Bedroom window and quack in chorus
before five O'Clock, keeping up the
din Until he throws some food to
them. Two hours or so later they re-
sumo their eIamor. So it goes all day.
koch is getting eggs, but he is losing
sleep.
Take it. from me- he says, Il have
stopped the pepsin.''

The Pattern.

''We shall be like Him''-1 John
So, yet here is the pattern-"Be
We therefore imitators of God as be
loved children; and walk in love, ev-
en- as Christ also loved you, and gave
himself up for us. "-Eph. 81. When
did he love us? When We were dead
through trespasses and SINS; without
strength and ungodly, and not when
we loved Him. Romans 1850,
gives us our debt as Christians to all
men, and not 20 the brethren only.
The law could not obtain here be-
cause weak through the flesh (Rom.
S:2-4), but in Christ il finds fulfill
ment.
The law could condemn the sinner,
and did; Jesus Christ condemned the
sin that was in the sinner-Rom. So.
That love which is born of God en-
ables us to pay the debt of love we
owe others, not taking into account
the treatment they give us.

METHODISTS RAP OFFICIALS
Action Of Secretary Wilson Precipi-

forfeited all claim on the future
franchise of the Christian and sober
manhood of the nation,'' were adopt
ed yesterday by the general Metho-

In the resolutions, based entirely
on the action of Secretary Of Agri-
culture James Wilson in presiding at
the brewers convention in Chicago,
last October, the president Of the
United States, the secretary Of agri-
culture and the secretary of state
are named as disregarding "the ex-
pressed wish and prayer of Christian
manhood and womanhOod of the ma
ton" in the Wilson controversy: The
resolution condemning The authorI-
ties was passed by show Of hands and
after vigorous opposition
Although the considerations of the
Wilson resolution was the most SEN:
sational incident, of yesterdays ses-

most vital interest came before the
church when the bishops, acting in
unison in their address of ~episcopaey, ,,
recommended that the church's legal
ban on "dancing, cardplaying, games
of chance, theatergoing, dancing par
ties and dancing schools, circuses and
horse racing as such, be with drawn
by the repeal of the paragraph in the
discipline and that John Wes1ey's or

cannot be taken in the name Of the
Lord Jesus" be allowed to stand.

FINE POINT ABOUT THE Law
Somewhat Curious Problem Has Been
Raised by the Decision Of
e.. Learned Judge.

Suppose you owned dog and q.
neighbor asked the courts to compel
you to keep it from barking and yelp
ing day and night, interfering with
his business and causing him and his
family loss of sleep, and suppose the
court handed down decree requiring
you to restrain your dog from bark.
ing, yelping and bowling, except in
cases of burglary or fire." how would
you set about obeying the order?
If you fix it so the dog cannot bark
at all and burglars invade your domi,
cile or fire breaks out and the dog
cannot bark, you may be robbed or
murdered in peril by disobeying the
Injunction that your restraint of the
barking, yelping and bowling shall ex.
tend only to those periods when there
is no burglary or fire. For the order
expressly limits your right to restrain
any barking, yelping and bowling
aforesaid by those exceptions. So:
-' s11,,stt you sit up nights and look out
for burglars and fires and be ready to
remove your restraint of the dogs
vocalization when either or both APP
pear?
Yes, you might get rid of the dog,
of course, but there is nothing said
about that. The law does not prohib7
it you keeping the dog. All it is con-
cerned about is that you shall not al
low the dog to become 4 nuisance.
You have to place it under restraint.
But you can at least congratulate
yourself that, unlike the trusts, you
do not have to worry about what con-
stitutes reasonable restraint because
there's not word about reasonable
ness in the law. All you have to do
is to restrain the animal from bark
ing, yelping and bowling, except in
cases of burglary or fire. The excep-
ton may, it is true, seem unreason-
able, but the law is made to be obeyed
somehow and it leaves it to you to
find out how.
