TO QUESTION FROM A
READER OF THE SUCCESS
TIVE QUESTIONS.

On the Sunday school lesson for
May 10, 1912, by Rev. DR.. Linscott.
Lesson, Matt. v, 1876.
Question s. Verse 20-H . man
does an outward good deed for the
sake of custom, or policy, or to pc
seen Of men, that he would not do
from his own choice, how is his deed
regarded by God?
Answer. From the teaching OF
Jesus in this chapter, It would ap-
pear that the scribes and Pharisees,
while professedly religious men,
were actually hypocrites. Their anx-
iety was not to be good. but to ap-
pear to be good by doing outwardly
GOOD things, and hiding their real
character; this fact suggests the
question which / am requested to
|answer. 1t is certainly a good thing
for children to be trained in good
habits. long before they can appre-
ciate motives, and for all men to
encourage in themselves habits that
are good. Even when man who
does not profess to be q christian
lis q man Of good habits, and thus
follows the custom of really good
people, so to speak automatically
this is so far good, but when one
does an outward good thing for the
sake of deceiving people, or when
he would not do the good deed II
lit were not seen Of others, he is OF
icourse a hypocrite and Is regarded
|by God In that light. The only
goodness which God recognizes is
love for our fellows, and the &C
lions which spring from love. The
deeds which we do to be seen OF
men, to be thought we'll of by them,
without any real intention of doing
good, but simply to minister to ou1
pride, or profit, are regarded by God
las sinful deeds. Deeds which spring
from kindness of heart, whether seen
(by others OF not, are always APPROX
ed by the Heavenly Father. and these
are the deeds which all men should
cultivate.

Do Not Suspect Foul Play.
The police are determined to learn
for what reason Geissler refused to
tell the truth about the case. though
there is no suspicion of foul play in
the death of the woman. If this is
the case in the circumstances attend
ing the death of the woman, the
police aver they will make an ex-
ample of those guilty Of falsehoods.
PlaincIothesmen King and Smith,
who are investigating the woman's
death, learned that she entered the
saloon accompanied by a man and
woman, went into a back room and
there had a number of drinks. While
in the room Mrs. De Forrest struck

ways, Says Report.

WASHINGTON. Dec. 2S.-Railroad
companies and steamship combina-
tions control the regular steamship
I lines of the United States and have
! destroyed competition on many OF
the water highways of commerce. de-
clares Luther Conant, jr., commits
soner of corporations, In report to
President Taft.
The revelations of the report, based
upon an extensive investigation, force
upon the Federal government, says
the commissioner. the consideration
of further regulation of joint rail and
water traffic.
In practically all the coast waters
of the country, 1t is declared, rail-
road or steamship consultations
dominate water transportation. Their
control of both through passenger
and package freight trade is espe-
cially striking, says Commissioner
Conant, on the Atlantic and Gulf
coasts and on the Great Lakes Water
lines along the eastern seaboard, he
adds. have become to a large extent
auxiliaries or subsidiaries of rail-
roads. While competition exists in
greater measure on the Pacific coast,
the commissioner points out import
ant Instances of railroad control
there.
1t is a striking fact, says Commits
sioner Conant, that between num-
ber of the more important ports on
the Atlantic and Gulf coasts there is
cnly a single regular service.
The New Haven system, it is
charged, "has pursued determined
policy of suppressing any effective
competition on Long Island Sound,
and several, at least, of its recent ac-
quisitions must be charged as due to
this policy" Elimination of competi-
ton also was an important factor,
said Commissioner Conant, in the
New Haven's purchase of a majority
interest in the Merchants and Miners
transportation Company.
The Southern Pacific likewise is
declared to have shown "a disposi-
tion to restrict competition" on the
Atlantic coast. although its steam
ship lines "are really a water extern
sion of that company's rail lines"
In addition, the report says, 'the
control of the Southern Pacific by
the Union Pacific (recently dissolved
by the United States Supreme CourD
obviously tended to limit the impor-
tance of competition by the South
ern Pacific's rail and water route"
The railroads controlling the great
est tonnage of steamship lines, ac-
cording to Mr., Conant, are the New
Haven system, Union Pacific-South-
ern Pacific, the Pennsylvania, New
York Central and Central of Georgia.
Nearly all the important anthra-
cite fleets on the North Atlantic
coasts, the commissioner says, are
owned by a few great anthracite
railroads.
