THE UPWARD PATH.

The CHIEF satisfaction OF cl1mDlng q
mountain is not in the view it affords,
beautiful as that may be. but in the
sense of surmounting obstacles.
It is battle with the powders and
the force of gravity. 1t is victory
won. 1t is the action of conquering.
of rising, of overcoming.
All mountains are not made of earth
and rock Some are constructed OF
passions and the very substance of hui
man life. The difference is that the
physical ascents we scale occasionally.
while the moral heights we are climb
ing forever.
We climb by setting our feet upon
vanquished temptations. Every I'M
worthy desire overcome is a stepping
stone Thus our very evil propensities
may be made to become our helpers.
They are for US to conquer. they are
for us to surmount, and each one lifts
US higher and nearer to the goal.
We are here to accomplish. to prog
ress, to evolve. The constant urge OF
i the soul pushes US forward. The d.
vine impulse is in US to continue NOV
| ing.
Aspiration is Of God, and it keeps the
race ever mounting from bowlder to
bowlder of achiev ement. This ascent
! Of the mountain Of life we call achiev.
ing success. Anything is success which
brings us higher In the scale Of being
and Of consciousness. And even though
we rise on seeming failures the vic
tory Is as great
The object Of life Is not so much te
have things, but to be things; not tt
accumulate. but to assimilate; not t.
add to our bank deposit. but to add t.
our character deposit.
The object Of life is soul growth. ad
vancement toward fullness Of being
expansion In divine consciousness
whatever contributes to these ends i
worth while. Whatever does not q
contribute is wasted effort.
| We should be able to say at eacl
nightfall that we have made progress
that we are little higher on the up
ward path than we were at the morn
Ing.
/ In climbing a mountain we keep Il
our minds the final summit. In as
cending the mountain of life we SHOULD
keep In view the whole path, not onl
up to the veil, but beyond it. II W
once see this entire glorious ascent
how trivial seem the accidents an
troubles that before disturbed us
Poverty. disappointments. separatio
from friends. death itself, all becom
little things of no moment. We sue
denly understand that they are but tn
mists on the slope. Whatever we ma
encounter, however black may be on
: despair. the one supreme object Z
life remains-to climb the path.
. Up. up. up forever-up to the full
ness of our own lives, up to broade
. vision. up above the desires that Ell
slave US. up into the freedom Of trutl
up to the goal!

GASPARD DE COLIGNY.
BY JAMES A. EDGERTCN

We hear little nowadays of the lead
er of the French HuguenOts who,
though in high position, espoused a
despised cause. made Several inetfec-
tual attempts to colonize America.
practically won the battle for religious
liberty in his own land and lost his life
in the dreadful massacre of St Bar
tholomew
Admiral Coligny had little to do with
the French navy, but was one OF the
stoutest soldiers his nation ever knew.
He was of those rare and noble old
characters who stood high both with
the court and common people. He re-
formed the army in much the same
way that Cromwell afterward reform
ed that of England. He drove out low
forms of debauchery and immortality.
inculcated a religious spirit. made the
soldiers respect the rights and property
Of private citizens and disciplined his
forces In a way that became model
to the nation for years to come.
Coiigny's character was 90 high that
he had the genuine respect OF all fac
lions. although partisan rancor was 30
fierce that It was well nigh impossible
for one side to do justice to the other.
His integrity was worth regiment or
soldiers His own men loved and
trusted as much as the opposition fear
ed and hated him
Had the French been as good col
onists as the English Coligny would
probably have planted strong colonies
OF Huguenots In America that might
have had an influence on the subse-
auent history Of the United States SIM
liar to that exerted by the British
puritans. That the plan failed was not
his fault. He had the vision and took
the necessary steps toward its fulfill
| ment
| There is no better reading in the
world than the biographies Of noble
men and women, and Of them all there
are few who bear scrutiny better than
this great hearted French soldier who
| sacrificed throughout his life for
| righteous but unpopular cause. who
was greater in defeat than victory
who won against overwhelming odds
/ and who in the end took his place
among the martyrs.
His blood was not shed In vain, FOL
indirectly the French revolution was
u long delayed answer to St Bartholo
new.

4 BETTER CIVILIZATION.

The outlook before the world was
never so hopeful as today.
There never was so much real kindh-
ness, individual self reliance. eficien-
cy. progress. knowledge and moral up
lift.
We think less of forms but more OF
facts than in any age OF the past.
We are healthier, longer lived. clean
er, have better hygienic regulations
and saner standards of living than our
forefathers.
These are not boasts, but demonstra-
Bile facts. They should not breed IN
us a false self competency. however,
but should rather inspire rs to continue

BILE. which should cause US to redouble
our efforts to improve.
Our achievements are great. but their
chief value lies in the promise they
hold of yet greater achievements to
come
From my own viewpoint the one
great lack of the world today is true
spirituality
In material ways we are far in ad-
vance Of any age in history.
Yet the great spiritual voices. the
prophets. the poets. the divine teachers,
seem strangely dumb
1t is these we need We have but
half civilization without them.
We have the aeroplane. but no Isaiah,
no Augustine, no Thomas Aquinas, no
Savonarola. no Luther.
We have the railroad, the stea mship.
the telegraph. the wireless. but no
Dante. no Shakespeare, no Goethe.
We are becoming so well contented
with this life that apparently we think

who profess to believe in no other life

PRESCOTT NEVADA COUNTY ARKANSAS FRIDAY JULY A. 1913
HOTTEST DAY OF
 YEAR RECORDED

1uS year, lHo mercury soaring 10 96 degrees at 2::3O o'clock in the afternoon as compared with 95 degrees on Sunday. However, no records for heat in the month of June have been broken, as June 30, 1894, the temperature was as high as 1O2 degrees, ac- cording to H. F. Alciatore, sec- tion director of the Little Rock Weather Bureau.
 Notwithstanding the fact that the temperatures for the D a s t week have ranged from two to five degrees above the average for June, which has caused un- seasonably warm weather, the maximum temperatures in Little Rock have not been as high as in many Northern cities. where it is supposed to be cooler than in Arkansas. The temperatures in Little Rock Sunday was 95 de- grees, as compared with the fol- lowing figures in other cities: Cairo, 100 degrees. Chattanooga 98, Louisville 100, Nashville 100 and St. Louis 100. MT. Alicatore said many people from Little Rock who have gone to Northern resorts in quest O. cooler weather have found more heat than Little Rock has had.
 It was explained that the heat prostrations in the cities of the North, where the temperature is not as high as in some places. is caused by physiological as well as Archaeological conditions. The chief cause of heat prostrat- ion, according to the weather man, is alcholic excesses, which makes people unable to resist heat.
 Cooler weather is promised by the bureau, because of the change in the direction of the wind from the Gulf to the northwest. The map yesterday showed that a body of cool air is advancing eastward across the Missouri valley, and probably will reach this section today.
 We have fair prospects for a change to unsettle weather with showers said MT. AhcatOre.
 A light thunder storm yester- day afternoon scattered the heat and last night Little Rock citi- zens could sleep comfortably. No rain came, however. and the rainfall for the month just ended is only half normal for June. The precipitation recorded was 2.05 inches, which leaves a def- ciency of 2.04 inches.
 June, 1912 was unusually cool. as the highest temperature re- corded during the month was 90 degrees, and the rainfall was B. 84 inches. There was only one warm night during the month, whereas the month just ended had a number of nights so un- comfortably warm that sleep was not refreshing.
 It was explained that on a day when no breeze is stirring, the temperature on the street is about six degrees higher than on top of the Southern Trust build ing where the thermometer of the bureau is located. But when breeze is flaming, there is scarcely any variation.
