A New World and a Better One?

According to noted French scientist Jupiter preparing

years. but furnishes topic for speculation chiefly
is:
What is this world to be, morally and ethicaly?
viii human inhabitants should there be any, thirty feet
tall and have heads like elephants will they d
mansions of the marmoset?
Will this world have airshps subways and militant sura-
gete will its people be drowsy eyed savags living caves
and forests?
Will there be slit skirts radum gowns for and pink
teas for highly perumed poodles will the spirit Mother
abide that women may be content do their afternoon calling
in the radiant raiment of her day?
Are there to be Tammany Halls and Hueras eternal

Peace of Amiens
By REV. T. B. GREGORY.
r T was one hundred and twelve

T T was one hundred and twelve
years ago-October 1, 1901
that the preliminary articles
of peace between England and
France were signed in the city Of
London; and the definitive treaty
was subscribed at Amiens on the
9th of March following.
Europe rejoiced at the termina-
ton of the long and bitter strug-
gle, but to those on the inside the
peace was not worth the paper it
was written on, and the sequel
proved that the fears Of the cabi-
nets were only too sell grounded.
The First Consul was only
playing for time and never in
tended to allow a piece of parch-
ment to stand between him and
the goal of his inordinate ambi-
ton. The ink with which the
treaty was written was hardly
dry when Napoleon began his ag-
gressions. Piedmont was an
nexed, as was also the Island of
Elba; Switzerland was occupied
and Holland was bullied into SUBJ
serviency to France. When Eng
land protested, Napoleon insulted
her envoy and dared her to re-
sent his action. England's an
swer came on May IS. 1903, in the
shape of a declaration of war-a
war that was to last, with a brief
respite, until 1915.

TT is more than probable that
many parents of young girls
will read this article and
consider it an improper" subject
for discussion.
And 1t is more than probable
that several of these daughters
viii read it and regard it as their
own experience, and wonder how
their secret became known.
This one young woman whose
story is given here has arrived at
a manageable age and is be-
trothed to the man of her choice.
He is several years her senior,
but says he will not be in a posi-
tion to marry and establish a
home for two years.
He has given the girl a ring,
and declares he is most anxious
to make her his wife.
Meantime, he asks her to con-
slider herself his wife in reality
now, and to show her confidence
in him by giving him all the priv
ileges of that holy state.
He assures her that her refusal
is a proof that she does not really
love and trust him; that she
doubts his honor and his word
He also assures her that all en-
gagged people regard the matter
from his standpoint, and that her
conduct is prudish and silly.
All over the world such men
are to be found.
1t is their method of testing the
weaker sex,
In many small country towns.
where American girls are I'M
chaperoned and unprotected by
foolish parents, and allowed to go
about freely with their admirers,
Il 1SbAAldAAO VI llilS biuOI Is moi
infrequently able to engage sew
eral trusting girls at one time,
under strict VOWS Of secrecy and
on the plea that financial or fam
lily circumstances are such that
marriage is out of the question
for years to come.
This type of man almost inva-
riably demands the full conf
dence and proof Of love ana
trust" as he terms it, of each of
his secret fiancees.
And, as a rule, he never mar
ries any one of them.
He disappears from the town
after a time and establishes him
self in pastures new.
The Rev. Mr.. Richeson was a
man Of this type, but he paid for
his amusement in the electric
chair.

gospel Of play. THE Church and

Association.
1.-THE craving for amusement"
says Karl Gross, in '''rhe Play Of
Man." lis as fundamental and ir-
resistible as the craving for food.
We come into the world with two
primary instincts, hunger and
playfulness. Which antedates the
other is not certain. But in the
course of human evolution the
exercise of the game impulse has
had a large ordination between
mans physical and mental ma
lures Moreover. this co-ordina-
tion--or, more specifically, the
subsection of the body to human
volition-furnishes the basis of
morality.

to volition is the basis of self
control. and self-control is

any sense of obligation - toward
work the child gets his elemen-
tary ideas of form and color,
cause and effect, pain and pleas
ure, as well as his sense of rela-
tionship, justice and integrity,
through play activities. We learn
to live by play, and that, too,
from ideal methods of instruction.
Contrary to the old traditional
opinion, more rapid, vigorous and
symmetrical development takes
place under the stimulus of play
than under that of toll. The only
exception to this is that in which
the task is so fittingly adapted as
to become itself a form of pleas
ure or actual amusement. Phil
lips Brooks said: It's fun to be
a minister
Work is a necessity; play is a
pleasure. Work is endured; play
is enjoyed. The JOY of work eX-
lists rarely, save in the minds of
poets and dreamers, who have
never experienced the drudgery
of common labor. John Ruskin
may sing of our pleasure grow

But as we see it down on earth

observe it among the hands on

Confession of an Actress.

The following is the substance Of
the confession of an actress of many
years experience, which appeared in
the Vanguard:
After a period of service covering
more years than | like to confess,
am convinced that the theatrical bus
mess is the most corrupt in the world;
corrupt from every possible view
point; ctrrupt commercially, .artiA-
tically, educationally, morally. The
noted life insurance exposures, the re-
Violations of trust methods, of politi-
cal graft, official, commercial and
personal corruption, are all startling
enough, but they pale before the pu-
trescence of the stage, which is rot
ten and foul in nearly every phase of
its business and social life, from the
forming and breaking of its contracts
TO the presentation of it's plays.
81 have seen it all, and | am heart
sick every time l observe a fresh
young face in the ranks. l can note
the instant when the tell-tale marks
that reveal the working of the poison
begin to appear, and ! warn all faith
ers and mothers to hear me say that
| would rather see my daughter with
the pure lily of death in her waxen
fingers than with the glow of the
footlights for one moment upon her
flushed face. Sometimes l am filled
with so much loathing for this I'M
holy profession that l am ashamed
of the very applause that is the only
fascination of the stage. Vanity,
sheer vanity! That we may sway
the emotions of the people and have
them praise US to our faces because
we have forced them to hysterical
tears or laughter-that is the high

No business man in any town
should allow a newspaper published
in his town to go without his name
mentioned somewhere in its columns.
This applies to ali kinds of business,
general stores, dry goods stores, gro
GERS, furniture dealers, professional
men,and in fact all classes of business
men. This does not mean that you
should have whole or even quar-
ter of a page ad in every issue of the
paper, but that your name and bust
ness should be mentioned if you do
not use more than a two-line space.
A stranger picking up newspaper
should be able to tell just what bus
mess is represented in town by look
ing at the businesses mentioned in
the paper. This is the best possible
town advertising. The man who does
not advertise his business does an
injustice to himself and his town. He
is a man who expects the paper to do
most of the boosting for his town.
The life of any town depends upon
the live, wide awake and liberal bus
ines men in it.-Eustis Lake Region.
