The post Office authorities of Chica-
go are after some person or persons
who are flooding the mails with chain
llettersr and postal cads, urging the
recital of religious prayer. The
letters ask that the recipient recite
the prayer for nine days and then
send nine copies with the same words
4 to other persons. The postal author
tiles are trying to find out who are
lsending these letters, with a view to
1 stopping it. The authorities may not
be able to interfere, but they can call
attention to it in such way that in
nocent people shall not be hoodwink-
ed by this absurd business The
1 Idea that the Lord is going to listen
to any such conspiracy formed to call
on His goodness and mercy, is surely
! lsetting up the All-Father as a sort Of
machine Divinity. A prayer is born
I in the heart and not in the brain Of
some religious fanatic, to whom is
Inscribed this effrontry. Even if some
merit in it could be imagined, the
abuse that might attend it cannot be
measured. The above article is CO.
pied from an Ohio paper, but it is
time the people Of Warren and vicini-
'Ity awoke and put q stop to all such
