Fostering Spirit of Criticism.

Many persons are too inclined to
say unkind things simply because
they happen to be near acquaintances
or relatives to one another. Remem
Der the words of Oliver Wendell
Holmes:
DO not f1atter yourself that rela'
tionship entities you to say unkind
things to your intimates."
He goes on to show that We get
enough unkind criticism from. outside
and should receive only heip'an sup
port from those in immediate touch
with us.
A person never regrets having done
or said the kind thing; it is the cruel
or unkind words and actions which
bring sorrow and regret.
There is no God given wisdom In
one human beng which should war
rant him in thinking himself qualified
Or able to dictate to another. 1t is
all conceit, really-the common 81

eod--As Seen by Youth and Age.
Old Age is more religious than
Youth. Edo not speak of the emotion
al crises that come upon young men
and young women In early youth;
those crises seem too closely related
to physical growth apd development
to be religious in the same sense IN
which old age is religious, writes II.
d. Sedgwiek in the Atlantic. That the
emotional crises of youth may bear
as truthful witness to the realities or
the universe as the temperate religion
OF old age | do not deny. The COO
that youth sees by the light of Its
emotional fires may be thereal God,
hut that image of God Is transitory,
1t appears in fire and tcp often disap-
pears in smoke. The image OF GOD
that appears to old sge is more
abiding image; it reveals it5elf to ex'
perience aud to reason instead OF to
the sudden and brief conviction OF
vision. Old age finds God more in its
own image, calm, Infinitely patient
net revealed merely by the vibrant
intensity of passion, but in the famil'
lar and commonplace TO old age the
common things Of life declare the
glory of God.

WITH BRICKS OF GOLD
LITTLE MEXICAN TOWN OF MAZA.
Pill is SAID TO BE PAVED.
Discovery Made by American Mining
Engineer Results In the Purchase
by Company Of All the Property
They Could Buy.

II Dick Wilmington had only lived
today he might have found the city
whose streets were paved with gold.
For recent investigation has brought
to light the fact that such q place
does exist, and that there is marvel
Gus wealth in the little Mexican town
of Mazapil.
Imagine the bricks Of the pavement
being full of gold and estimated from
$500 to 5000 to the ton! And there
Is a single wall about garden in
front of the town hall which is valued
at million dollars!
1t seems that not long ago an
American mining engineer was roam
ing through that country, and when he
came back into civilization he brought
with him few bricks and some sam
pies Of Stag. He was not sure if they
were worth anything at all, and never
dreamed of their real value, but he
turned them over to his companys as
sayer
The assayer's report was startling
IL there was more of the same stuff
to be had, he said. untold wealth was
in sight, and Immediately the COM
pany started an investigation. 1t was
found that the assayer's estimate was
not exaggerated. The streets of
Mazapil were literally paved with
gold, and high percentage of sill

OF course 1t did not take many
days before the little town was be-

property. The natives, ignorant Of
the value, sold out for a song. The
company purchased all the old smelt-

walls and buildings. 1t even bought
up the postofce.

Waging a War.

Fourteen million dollars was spent
in. this country last year in the war
against tuberculosis. In comparison
With the small amounts expended for
the same purpose only few years
ago this sum seems vast. In reality,
it Is not nearly so large as Il should
be. The organized effort now being
made In every state of the Union to
stamp out tuberculosis Is commonly
referred to as war, and quite prop
erly so. 1t Is a war waged against an
insidious enemy that takes greater
toll of life than is taken in actual war
fare. Yet in these days $4,000 600
would not go far in financing even the
smallest of real wars that may come.
Why should we not spend more In
carrying on a great war which is al
ready here and which has as Its OBJ
iective something more important
than the acquisition of territory or
the protection OF the honor Of a king?
