JsffersonIan Simplicity.

It was August The secretary OF
state had called at the White House
to talk over the impending war with
Japan. The hired man was sitting on
the front steps playing mouth or
gan. while a rosy-cheeked maid kept
time with her churning.
The secretary of state strolled
around to the lot back Of the execu-
tive mansion Here he discovered
the president and vice-president pitch
ing horseshoes. Both wore overalls
and bingham shirts.
"Howdy, Bill?" nodded the presi-
dent and the vice-president.
"Howdy. Woody: howdy, Tomf" re-
turned the secretary of state.
''Sit down and referee this game,
BILL" said the president. Tom has
bet me a yearling heifer against my
bicycle that he beats me. Then you
can stay for supper. Bill, and We'll
have game Of checkers."-Ex'

Making Man Love Woman.

Can a woman make man love her,
Yes, often she can If she lays herself
out to do 1t. But not always. The
most important point is that he must
not know it.
The worlds history has many IN
stances of the love-compelling power
of even unattractive women. Here's
the recipe:
To compel love woman must
sympathize with a man.
She must not often contradict him
She must flatter him and let him
think that his opinion is the only one
that matters.
She must exert her powers OF
charm and never bore him.
She must be bright and amusing In
his presence.
She must see a good deal of him,
for absence generally makes the heart
grow fonder-of some one else.-Re-

Inspired Word.

1t is generally accepted that the Scrip
lures were written by divine inspiration.
1t is certain that the Scriptures claim
this in positive and express language G.
Tim, 1916 10:
''All Scripture Is given by inspiration
of God and is profitable for doctrine, for
reproof for correction, for instruction
in righteousness, that the man of God may
be perfect, thoroughly furnished until all
good works. In many other passages
this'claim is asserted and in others clearly
implied. The fact that the claim is made
is in itself an urgent call that We should
search the Scriptures to discover the
basis upon which the claim Is made.
Christian experience has shown that when
the search has been made seriously and
reverently conviction has come that the
Scriptures are none other than the words
Of God.
The honest and unprecedented investiga-
ton reveals that sthe matter contained in
the Bible is pure and tending only to
that which is good; that wonderful
prophecies contained in the book have
been fulfilled: that the profound wisdom
displayed could not have emanated from
mere men: that in all the statutes judg-
ments and commandments made known
there is inherent evidence of divine au-
thorship, and that 1.-The statutes of the
Lord are right rejoicing the heart: the

there was any infallible way for a young
man to get on The district attorney
thought moment and responded: amy
young fellow with good health can sue
coed in this city If he will do two things
keep at his work and keep straight"
In reality the district attorney named
three qualifications for success good
health. persistent labor and good morals
To large degree these qualifications are
fnteractive Good morals conduce to good
health. and good health, in turn. to good
morals. Moreover. good morals lie at the
basis of character and character Gas
those who have been following these
talks NAV remember that have already
quoted Mr J. r. Morgan as saying lies
at the basis of business credit.
Again. looking at the matter from the
psychological standpoint. good con-
science is based on good morals and on
industry or the knowledge of work well
done. while on the other hand. il is hard
indeed to be Industrious when ones mind
is distracted by the torments of remorse
So il is that in Mr. Whitman.s advice
stance where the experience of the world
veriiies the previous wisdom of the
Scriptures. "Seest thou man diligent in
his business? He shall stand before
kings" says the Sage of Israel
We likewise find Paul thus advising
Timothy: Goodness is profitable unto
all things having promise of the life that
now is and of that which is to come
This is a faithful saving, aud worthy of
all acceptance"
