first met-this morning, when love

Not Way to Make Angels.

Unless you are employing the
qualities which would render you a
suitable citizen of Heaven, you
can not receive a pass TO enter that
kingdom.
Angels are not made in a mo-
ment.
\ man or a woman who brings
into use the devilish characteristics
of quick ugly tempers, sulky MOODS,
selffshness and fault-f finding in his
or her home will not be trans
formed into an amiable angel and
enter Heaven by the mere act Of
dying.
Such individuals will be taken Oh
fast flying airships Of their own
manufacture to the purgatories and
hells of their own manufactures
And they will associate with de
mons like unto themselves until
they learn their lesson of self-con-
troll and work their passage into
better place.
Perhaps you do not believe in any
heaven or any lie beyond this. If
not. you are to be piticd.
But in that case you should quite
as fully realize the need Of making
place on earth where you will OBJ
tain and give all possible happiness
while you remain.
What is the good of all your work
and worry and starving and strain

forming habits which give peace
and pleasure and love and content

Six Times For ThaW.

For the sixth time Harry Thaw
has secured a hearing before some
court or another in an effort to set
himself free. In speaking of the
travesty the New York World has
this to say:
"How much longer must the public
be subjected to the sickening spec
tacle of a worthless being who has
been adjudged both a criminal and in
sane being paraded through the
courts of this state merely because
money is provided to pay counsels
fees?
'Thus it seems that law can never
settle anything that money cannot
unsettle. It is a great reflection on
the courts that Thaw was taken out
of the sanitarium six times and
brought before the court on the the
DRY that the other courts were wrong.
Is it possible that doubt hangs over
courts action as long as there is
money to challenge it,"
