WORLD HAS NOT BEEN RELIGIOUS

Perhaps it will come in the
next generation at least one
hopes it will be the next. But
the wheel is a huge one, and it
takes a long time for it to come
full circle. Perhaps our children
are only the father or grandfather
of the men and women who are
to realize our dream.
We are preparing it for them
now; its elements are in our
hands. Out Of our recent skep-
ticism, out of the materialism that
has hampered US for so long, we
are at last setting ourselves to
shape an old, old vision, the
brightest thing about which man
kind has ever concerned itself
the enduring, growing vision of
the City of God. In other words,
having been rationalisic and
scientific and worldly wise, we
are now about to become relig-
ious once more.
1t is curious that such vitality
important thing as religion should
ever suffer eclipse. One wonders
if it does. One would like to
think that an obviously mater
iallitic would was still religious
at heart, holding to God by some
other name, or serving him un-
consciously. And perhaps fun
= damentally this is true. The
essential relation between God
and man cannot be lost without
the destruction of the universe,
Creation is religion. But, just
as the full meaning of friendship
implies reciprocity and is defeat
ed by one-sidedness, SO the term
religion goes crippled unless it
betokenh a conscious response
between Creator and creature.
Individuals, many of them, have
always been religious; but the
world at large has not been re-
ligious for great many years. 1t
is tremendous turning for
which we are preparing the way.

THAT DAY-LABORER.

That day-laborer never knew
what he had done for mea and the
ages. He went home to his simple
evening meal without the least
idea toat he had inspired grea t
spirit with the fresh courage that
was needed to take up a discuor-
aging task.
He just did his work as well as
could, and sang.
It's great thing to sing!
And the finest part of the
matter is this, that if we could
look into the lives of all who have
done great, holpful things for
humanity we would find, no doubt
that many Of them were inspired
or helped by the patience and
singing of humble folk. And we
might find our own faithful
efforts, however hid from fame,
serving strong hearts and minds
in their larger efforts to bless
and benefit.

The FARM HORSE
NEEDS ATTENTION
In the Spring Diseases Are liz
able to lnjure This Do
mestic Animal
LAMINITIS is PREVALENT
The Causes of The Disease, It's symp- Z
toms and Its Treatment Are
Fully Explained.

The farm horse has been left either
In the stable or allowed to run on the
hillsides all winter, and now as spring
Is coming on and the spring work is
at hand with the muddy roads, there
are several important diseases Of
horses that the farmer should be care
full about and avoid. One of these is
iaminitis or founder. Founder is an
Inflammation of the sensitive or soft
parts of the hoof between the hard
horne and the bone. The idea that
the farmer gets when he sees horse
with founder, and concludes from his
action that the trouble is in the
knees, shoulders or chest. is an error.
It is difficult to explain Just exactly
what brings about this disease, but if
we will study the animal carefully,
we will see that an irritation or sud-
den change of the digestive tract
when the other conditions are just
right, may produce Inflammation Of
the feet. Therefore, 1t may be due to
a sudden change of feed while the ami
NAL is on the road. too much feed,
change of water, the temperature of
which causes a sudden cooling, either
feeding or watering while the animal
is too warm, long drives causing the
animal to become very tired, or driv
ing without shoes on the hard roads.
There Is no characteristic difference
In the nature OF the disease due to
any Of the above causes. Sudden chill
ing, If produced by draft of air or
by cold water as far as the character
OF the disease is concerned. is one and
the same

The inflammation may occur in
either the front or hind feet, but usual
ly it Is in the front feet The first in
clination of the disease is shown in
stiffness and dissemination to move
II the position of the animal were
studied carefully, you VAL notice the

the body will be thrown on the heels,
the hind feet are brought well up I'M
der athe body in order to take as much
OF Tue weight off the front legs as pos
stble. This position gives the animal
bumped up, stiff. unsteady position.
1t IS from this symptom that the or
binary man thinks that the horse has
sprained back, disease of the kid
neys, etc. The horse will have slight
fever, his heart will beat rapid. and
his breathing fast. The feet will
be extremely hot as compared
with the horse that stands next
to him and when the affected feet are
tapped lightly with hammer it will
show extreme pain and try to get
away from 1t. When the disease oc,
ours in the hind feet the same posi-.
ton Is taken as when the disease is To-
Gated in the front feet The reason !,
for this Is to bring the hind feet for.
ward to make the weight rest on the
heels of the hind feet, thus relieving
the pressure on the more sensitive
parts of the feet hi
Treatment.
In nearly all these cases, the ami.
mars feet are very sore and painful
SO much so that it is almost impossi.
Bile to get the shoes off, This can be
done very easily by standing the ami
NAL in tub of cold water for four or
five hours. This will reduce the fever
and the hose will allow the clinches
on the nails to be cut and remove the
shoes. Then place the animal In box
stall and apply wet bags, previously
saturated In cold water, to the feet and
give the animal a thick, soft bed OF
straw to encourage him to lie down.
Then keep the bags wet with cold
water every half hour until all fever
and lameness disappears.
In the meantime the horse should
be given physic of raw linseed oil
and fed nothing but wheat bran mash
with plenty of salt This will have a
tendency to keep the bowels loose and
reduce the fever. If the lameness
does not disappear inside of two
weeks, it is seldom that complete
recovery does occur then a rest OF
several weeks on SOFT wet pasture
and apply the following blister around
the top of the hoof
Red Iodine of Mercury, 2 drachms.
Powdered Cantharadies, 2 drachms.
Lard, 2 ounces.
Mix this together and rub for five
minutes on the hair around the top OF
the hoof. Tie the animal so he can
not get his lips to the blistered parts,
for about three or four days and then
turn him on the pasture.

TRUST RECOGNITION

The proposition that the gov
eminent shall recognize and per-
nit to exist trusts, monopolies
and combinations in restraint Of
trade and then regulate them by
legislative control is one calcu-
lated to suppress individual en-
terprise and destroy competition.
1t is conceded that such a policy
would result necessarily In the
fixing of prices of the products of
such combinations by law. If
government fixes the price Of the
finished product, must it not also
fix the price Of the raw material
and of the labor that converts 1t?
1t is urged that large Industrial
combinations can produce more
cheaply than small ones. This
is fundamental fallacy, from
which proceeds the paternalistic
doctrine that government shall
recognize and permit monopolis-
tic combinations and fix the price
of their product.-Representative

DANCING RECOMMENDED.

Dancing is a natural and prop
er outlet for the play impulse.
II the opportunity for young peo-
pie to dance Is not properly af-
forded under proper management
the city should concern itself
with such provision. The dance
hall problem may be helped
greatly by using the public
school houses for dances under
proper supervision. Young men
and women should have greater
opportunity to mingie among
wholesome surroundings, and
there is much good in any plan
that will bring them together
more frequently. Much Of the
evil that beeets the young In the
cities could be avoided In this
way.-Df Woods Hutchinson.

RESTRICTING IMMIGRATION.

The great problem of the world
at the present time is inmigrA-

negie Peace foundation I shall
recommend that immigration of
males from any one country be
restricted 10 not more than per
cent more males than females.
This is done In the interest Of
morality and in the interest of
the immigrants themselves. At
present the great number of
males in this country herd to-
gether and live without domestic

fatal diseases result This is Just
as true of all other countries as
Of America, and it is one Of the
problems OF the world.-Dr.
