Youth and Ace and Reliaion.

Old age is more religious than youth.
/ do not speak Of the emotional crises
that come upon the young men and
young women in early youth. Those
crises seem too closely related to physi-
cal growth and development TO be re-
hgious in the sense In which old age
is religious. That the emotional crises
Of youth may bear as truthful witness
10 the realities of the universe as the
temperate religion Of old age do not
deny. The God that youth sees by the
light of its emotional fires may be the
real God. but that image of God is
transitory. 1t appears in fire and too
often disappears In smoke. The i'm
age of God that appears to old age is
q more abiding image. 1t reveals IT.

stead Of TO the sudden and brief con-
viction of vision. Old age finds God

clare the glory OF God.-H. ID. Sedge-

Vanilla Plants.

The vanilla bean" is not bean.
but the podlike fruit of a tropical or
child. Vanilla planifolia. The plant is
a climber. often growing to q height
OF many feet, like ivy. II has thick
laurel-like leaves and aerial roots
growing alternately. The flowers are
rather insignificant. greenish yellow
followed by a podiike fruit five to ten
inches long. 1t is native of Mexico
but is cultivated In Guiana and other
parts Of tropical America. also in Cey-
Ion and India. In commercial culture
vanilla plants are usually trained on
trees. though posts and trelIises are
sometimes used. They begin to bear
about three years after planting and
continue to fruit for thirty or forty
years The pods are picked before
fully ripe and dried. Like other or
chids, the vanilla depends on insects
for its pollination. and. as in most
places where II is cultivated the special
insects that poilinate it in its native
place are lacking. this work has to be
done by hand.-Rural New Yorker.

CHRISTIAN ENIEAV0R
Prayer Meeting Topic For the Week
Beginning june 20, 1918.


Topic.-Our nations glcries and perils. -
Ex. xix, i-s Edited by Rev. Sherman IL
Doyla. D. d.
Every nation IN the history Of the
world has had both its glories and its
perlis. Ancient Greece developed
many giories- patriotism. art. culture.
phiIosophy-but it had perils that in
the end caused its downfall. Rome
was splendid In material prosperity
and In political power. but it was also
honeycombed with vice and iniquity
and went the way Of all nations that
forget God
The American nation has its glories
and its perils as well 1t is therefore
important to study them both that the
one may be increased and the Others
avoided.
Christianity is glory OF the Amer
lean nation. The founders Of our great
nation were for the most part Chris
tians. men who had deep religious con
victions and many of whom came 10
the new world in order that they
HaakdNG NAt@C
convictions. Our nation as a nation is
still Christian. Its laws are founded
upon Christian principles. and the vast
majority of the American peaple still
trust in God and adhere to the Chris
tian faith.
Patriotism Is a national American
glory. Americans have always been
extremely patriotic BY foreign wars
and a great civil war their patriotism
has been tested. and 1t has stood the
test.
Liberty is a national American glory
Here. as no place else In the world.
there Is both civil and religious liberty.
and no other nation has so harmonized
political and religious affairs as TO
make liberty In both so possible to all
Its people.
The perils of the American nation
cannot be minimized- There are politi-
cal perils. Today the nation is politi.
cally in a transition stage. New de
mands are made upon the government
and changes in various FORMS are being
made, There never was greater need
for the exaltation Of national righteous
ness, and every citizen OF our land
should do what he can to see 1t exalted.
Intemperance is a great national peril.
There is drunkenness in high life and
among the lowly and all classes. be
tween.
The temperance sentiment. however,
Is growing Prohibition and local on
ton are more widely spread then ever
before. Among other national periis
are Sabbath breaking, the greed for
gold. selfishness and ambition for
great material success at any cost AS
Americans we need to get back to a
more simple way of living. with more
conservation to God and divine laws.

A question something akin to "fiies In the
ointment" is that OF the present-day ten
dency in the line of fiction. That there are
good wholesome novels given to the public
there is no doubt but, that there is class
OF fiction which is demoratizing, cannot
be denied. The looseness OF the marriage
bond is set forth in no uncertain way in
many OF the so-called popular books.
There is one consolation; literature
fiction especially, goes by fashion. as does
about everything else in the world # one
studies it little, and we viii trust this is
a 'stad" soon to give place, we Will hope,
to more sold foundation OF home virtues.
To those who deny there is fashion in
writing, let me refer to romsnces based on
hypnotism, a few years ago. later, dialect
stories; them, or Just before, II may have
been, historical novels. One writer made
a success in a work ofene OF these kinds,
and other authors attempted the same
style.
