The girl who writes the above let

granted that she has this money all
for herself. A girl who gets SIS a

of love to give up that independence

Love is worth any sacrifice. There is
nothing in life greater than love. But
in this case the girl is asked to make
three-fourths of the sacrifice.
I contend that If the man loved her
as purely and unselfishly as every nice
girl deserves, he wouldn't ask her to
subject herself to the biting priva-
tiOns, the self-denials. the narrowed
outlook that marriage on such mea-
ger salary would entail.

distinct meaning. as evident to the tod

thing to be able to write in such
way that the reader is not confused

Although the word make" is plain.
there is nevertheless just as much
meaning in il as the reader has mind
to find in it. 1t does not tell how God
made man. nor how long he was in

made, and that it was God that made
him.

Easy Reading for Beginners.
A good deal Of the older part Of the
Bible is picture book, and, like other
picture books, makes easy reading for
beginners.
There is nothing very exact about
the way in which pictures tell what
they have TO say, but they have this
advantage, that their general mean
ing is so plain that all sorts of people
will be likely to understand them in
the same way.
Pictures have this advantage also,
that while paragraphs have to be re-
written from generation to generation.
in order to keep them up TO the truth,
pictures never wear out
That is in part the reason why
books that are being written today are
full of quotations from the picture Ian
guage of the old Testament.
They may not. be scientific, but they
are picturesque, and the colors they
are painted in are so fast that though
thousands of years old they still pre-
serve their freshness and their brilliant
complexion

this article are an example of this,

President Taft. backing up secretary
of the interior Fisher, rails to please
Protestants with his garb decision as
applying to teachers in government in
dian schools, and Protestant leaders
say he fails also to please the Catho-
lies. Commissioner Valentine. of the
indian bureau, ordered that, from the
opening of indian schools this fall,
teachers wear no dress indicating
religious association. President Taft
annuled the order forthwith. There arc
81 nuns in schools formerly Catholic
but now government supported schools.
These schools are scattered well over
territory occupied by indians.
After delaying many months, winch
delay provoked criticism from all par
ties, president Taft concurs in secre-
tary Fishers decision that present
teachers may continue TO wear UnelI
garb but that teachers hereafter 10
come in must wear a dress indicative
of no religious belief or membership IN
no religious order The decision pre-
vents Catholics recruiting their teac1
ing force from habited orders, but Al
lows present teachers to I'LL Lnelr
places undisturbed-
Chairman Thompson, of the Home
missions council. representing all
declares that the president evades the
issue, is inconsistent and satisfies no
body with his decision. He asks why
the president and secretary of the in
terror ignore the charge that civil ser
vice laws have been broken admitting
nuns as teachers without examination.
Other PrOtestants intimate that presi-
dent Taft has made another decision,
only after long delay, that strikes out
nowhere, and pleases neither side to
the issue There is talk of politics in

ago the government voted money to

Next the government withdrew these
grants, and finally took the schools

rigid enforcement of laws against
trusts as we'll as more law on the
subjestr including criminal pnn-

control the platform will be more
in keeping with the views of the
conservatives, representated by
Governor Harmon and Oscar I'M
derwood.
Nobody can tell thing about
the nomination, except the cam
paign managers and press agents

counts for doing little else. To
man up tree, it looks like a
sure deadlock until about the
fourth ballot. When the break
comes, then look out. If it's a
dark horse, and Bryan, himself, Is
not picked, some man like Sena-
tor Kern of Indiana, would be a
strong possibility, because Bryan
is his close friend, while conser-
vatives of the Tom Taggrat stripe
also like him. If Bryan does not
grab. off the plum. himself, its
dollars to leather washers that
he'll have big say-so in picking
the fellow who does. For this
reason all the candidates are now
towing to Bryan. 1t seems to be
Bryan's game to stay in the mid
die of the road on the Wilson
Clark fight, keep both sides
friendly to him and be in position
to get the votes on the expected
deadlock.
