The Bible hids us put away 'saIl bit- terness. wrath. malice" as being quaI- itiee that darken the mind and stunt the spiritual growth. There is good ground for the admonition as a rule for moral health. Oliver Cromwell wrote to his son-fn-law, Lieut. Gen. Fleet wood, then commanding in Ireland, "Comn1end me to an the officers. Wish them to beware of bitterness"
 Of bitterness, jealousy, contempt, we should all indeed beware. They are emotions that degrade the spirit and darken the Understandings Moreover, they take away the joy of life. ,s The cynic Is one of the unhappiest Of men. He gets as little as possible of the sunshine as he goes along.
 Under any view of the matter, sym pathy. interest, admiration, are best. They are right theoretically and they are right practically The open avenue to the best in any human life is the way of love and not of hate. The conternptuous spirit is a demon to be cast out. It helittlea you and it de- grades your fellows The poet Toss las the right of it when he sings. would not sit in the scorner's seat,

SUNDAY MORNING TALK
SEATS OF THE scoRNFuL.

It was an item in the Psalmist's s praise of the righteous man that he .'sitteth not in the seat of the scorn- full" The scorners seat is always a bad one to occupy if one wishes to see the drama of life clearly, As a point of view 1t has nothing to be said in it's favor. In no mood of con- tempt can we view justly or treat fair ly any fellow being. Contempt means bitterness, and bitterness means nial- ice, and malice is of the pit itself.

Young man and young woman, do not get the impression you can go it alone in life, because you cannot. The very first requisite for getting on well in the world is to make ones self use ful to somebody-to become to them like new and profitable thought or a dependable right hand. The song of nature and the demand of life harmon ize in utility, Usefulness, beneuolence and goodness is the trinity designed to produce the superman; but the great est of these is usefulness. The useful ness which doesn't hug self, the benev- olence which melts prejudice and tue goodness which does good-which shines because it shins not because it is the reflector of most desirable quality. A real grasper of life has no time to harbor contentment. The self satisfied are like a noble tree in the grip of a fungus, a little thing which sends the roots of death to the heat of the tree. Usefulness and beauty go hand in hand down the corridors of time-they are inseparabie and sus- tain one another.

There are practical reasons why one should avoid the seat of the scornful. In the first place the attitude of scorn makes true judgment of another inn possible. Contempt pulls the shutters down over the windows of the soul so that one cannot see. I never estimate man rightly when I look down upon him His strong and heroic qualities are likely wholly to escape me. As write the terrible fight at Liege is teaching the Germans how greatly they underestimated the Belgian spirit and power of resistance Belgium is a small state, but one which 1t has been a tragic mistake for Germany to despise.
 Not otherwise, I as an individual may underestimate or pass by as un- worthy of attention many about me who have much to teach me if would let them To adopt toward any human being an attitude of contempi may mean only loss to myself as well as injustice to my brothers. Ever day we are in conflict with some who may be deemed beneath our notice. but from that disdain we ourselves suffer as surely as do they.
 Contempt is a very fiiu1sy shelter into which we sometimes creep to get rid of the need for action. When have sneaking suspicion that a mans message Is right. even if disturbing, it is easier for me to despise him than to obey him. In the early years of Gen. Booths colossal and beneficent enterprise. the cultured and educated classes did not take the trouble to oppose the Salvation singers with their tambourings. They merely counted them beneath their aristocratic notice The literad of that day could not pause in their elegant concerns even to criticize such low-bred folk. But some of the hterati at least lived to know better. They were forced to see at last what they might have seen at first. if their eyes had been open.

The first good thing indicated by this text is the wisdom of selecting. Any food which causes disease is abominable that is, which disagrees with us Indigestion rheumatism and great many ills of the flesh is said to be heir to are the result of unwise comnina- tions or the bolting of food.

STATES SHOULD
I PASS ON VOTES
SAYS PRESIDENT
Wilson After Expressing OpIn-
ion Withdraws When Wo-
men Try to Draw Him Out
by Storm of Questions.

WASHINGTON. July 1. - Pres.
Wilson is opposed to the settlement
OF the suffrage question by the fed
eral government and believes 1t
should be settled by the states.
He made this plain Tuesday as he
stood fn the center OF a crowd OF 500
whfte-garbed suffragists who met the
president in the east room OF the
white house TO deliver the suffrage
resolution adopted by the Federation
Of WOmen's clubs at the recent Chi
cagO meeting.
Immediately on the conclusion of
his brief announcement the suffragists
adopted militant attitude and began
TO 'heckle'' the president. A storm
OF questions was dinned in his ears,
but the cOlloquy was soon ended by
a bow and the withdrawal Of the
president with the remark "It is not
proper for me TO submit to this
cross examination"
Suffraget Replies.
AS the president bowed himself out
a stir was created when an ardent
suffragist shrilled:
you will have to submit TO cross
examination next November"
Upon being presented with the Chi
cagO resolution and being asked
whether he would use his influence to
have the Bristow- Mondell suffrage
constitutional amendment put through
congress at this session the president
said:
Mrs. Wiley and ladies: No one
can fail to be impressed by this great
company of thoughtful women, and
] want to assure you that it is TO me
most impressive. 1 have stated once
before the position, which, as the
leader OF a party I feel obliged to
take, and am sure that you will not
wish me TO state u again.
Perhaps it would be more service
able If / Yentured upon the confident
conjecture that the Baltimore con-
vention did not embOdy this very i'm
pOrtant question in the platform
which IL adopted because of it's con-
victiOn that the principles of the con-
stitution which allotted these ques-
tons TO the states were well con-
sidered principles from which they
did not wish to depart.
Personal Position.
You have asked me TO state my
personal position with regard TO the
pending measure. 1t is my convic-
ton that this is a matter for settle
ment by the states and not by the
federal government. 1 can only say
that since you have turned away from
me as a leader Of a party and asked
me my personal position as a man.
] am obliged to state It very frankly
and / believe in stating it am prob
ably in agreement with those who
framed the platform TO which allu-
sion has been made.
II think that very few persons per-
haps realize the difficulty of the dual
duty that must be exercised, whether
he Will or not by president Of the
United States. He IS president OF the
United States as an executive charged
with the administration of the law.
but he is the choice of a party as a
leader IN policy. The policy is de-
termined by the party, or else upon
unusual and new circumstances. by
the determination of those who lead
the party"
