Also he should look sharp, since some one who is reasonably up-to- date may spring an ultra violet ray on him, connect with his accumulated bile and cause discomfitting explo- sion. However, lest we forget. let us quickly return to the birth of Christ. There are some folks, un- able to accept the orthodox belief in that story as written in the Bible, who do still affect to be able to un- derstand how such a thing-as relat-- ed in the Bible-might be true.

TEARING UP THE BIBLE.

Rev. Dr. Aked seems to continue to maintain his place as a storm center in the religious world.
 A citizen of San Francisco, evident ly wishing to express resentment to- ward the minister for his having re- nounced an orthodox bel ef publicly in the presence of great crowd tore up the Bible in his presence. Ii one be made angry because man ot influence renounces an orthodox be- lief, the act of tearing up the book in which the doctrine so renounced be set down, seems to be little in consistent. Why not tear up the doc tors sermon rather, in that, to this man, it, and not the Bible, offended
 It should be noted in this connection that the dispatches are careful to say that Dr. Aked has renounced the "or- thodox belief" in the virgin birth of Christ-not in such birth itself. Just what Dr. Aked's views are on this interesting subject these brief reports do not give us to know.
 But this is the age of the open mind. The man and the woman who goes groping round in distress be- cause he can see nothing to be thank ful for, should be reminded of this

BOLIvIA'S SACRED LAKE.
Over . Billion In Treasure Said to 6s
 Sunk In Its Muddy Bed.


 Sunk In Its Muddy Bed.
 Legend has 1t that for more than 600 years the lake of Guativita, at an ele- vation of 10000 feet in Bolivia, has not only been held sacred to the gods of the Indian tribes, but into its wa ters the natives, with solemn ceremo- ny, used to cast their gold and silver ornaments, gems and other valuables as an offering to propitiate the evil spirits. It has been estimated that in this manner treasure to the amount of $1 800 100000 found it's way to the bot tom of the lake.
 Many attempts were made to recov- CT the treasure. The first was by the Spaniards 25O years ago. They tried to drain off the waters of the lake. but their engineering skill was not equal to the task. When they had drawn off all but ten feet of the water they were compelled to give up their pro- ject and take to dredging instead. They did succeed in recovering small part of the treasure in this way.
 The most modern attempt was made twenty years ago by company of Colombians and Englishmen. By dig ging tunnel HOO feet long down the side of the mountain they succeed ed in draining the lake, but then they found to their dismay, instead of q clear bottom. twenty-five feet of mud covering the treasure. In all this com- pany spent $75.OOO and recovered but $1OOOO worth of gold and jewels be- fore they, too, abandoned the search --Argonaut.

A VERSATILE MONARCH.
Peter the Great of Russia Was a Real
 Jack of All Trades.

Peter the Great of Russia Was a Real
 Jack of All Trades.
 All historians agree that Peter the Great of Russia was man of various accomplishments. After he became emperor he worked as a shipbuilder in Amsterdam. His object was to study tue construction of ships that workman might aid him in establish ing a first class navy in his own coun. try. He also studied anatomy and seemed to delight in dissecting human bodies. He is said to have acted as executioner on several occasions, one being when. after the siege of Narva. certain soldiers disobeyed orders, whereupon he sentenced them to death and killed them himself. He was also wont to fog criminals with his own hands.
 He practiced as a surgeon ill his own country. where he was accustomed to perform amputations as well as to bleed persons and draw teeth. In his pockets he usually carried case Of surgical instruments. His versatility Is indicated by the relics preserved in Peters museum. St. Petersburg. where there are ship models. a chandelier and other iron articles and ivory figures. all his own construction in the same place there is at present on exhibition wax model of the great emperor wearing a Dair of shoes and wig made by himself.

BUSINESS AND THE UNEMPlOY-
 ED.

Secretary of Commerce Redfield, Tn a recent address, punctured the con- tentions of the American Economist and other standpatters that the pres ence of large armies of unemployed in the cities of the country has been due to the operations of the tariff law. He explained, as is generally understood by those not seeking to make political capital out of depress- ed economic conditions, that such idleness ought not to be attributed wholly to bad trade conditions. Re viewing the world financial situation, he found it not surprising that Euro pean doubt and distress should have their effect on this country. Added to this were the local uncertainties as to tariff, currency and business legislation, and the natural causes at tributed to suspension of trades and industries during the winter months.
 The "corner" was turned some time oSNSA plants and iron eoundries increase op- erations to full time, and those that were entirely shut down open up again. The number of idle freight cars has noticeably diminished since the middle of January. There has been quickening variety of bus1- nesses associated with the structural and building lines Mills have resum-- ed operations in the Middle West, and all these renewed activities have combined to give a more cheerful as pect to railroad prospects. The rail- roads still contribute double voice, but there seems to be an increasing confidence that. whatever the rate de- cision may be, the subsequent hand ling of the freight will be to the sat
 Naturally, the tariff has a conspic- uous part in any comprehensive con sideration of the business situation. The lower duties have added to our food supply. As shown in government statistics, during the last three months of 1912. 112,000 head of cat tie were imported as against 341,O00 in the last three months of 1913. So, too, with the grains, butter, fresh meat, potatoes and other food pro ducts. In 1912 the cost of fliving was going up at an alarming rate. Very little food was being imported. At the close of 1913 prices were higher than in 1912. but there is no doubt that they would have been much higher had it not been for the influx Of foreign foods on the markets. Since December last wholesale prices have declined. The last commodity report issued by Bradstreets shows a down ward trend These importations nave not hurt the American manufacturer nor have they don injury to the American farmer. The good that they have accomplished is being slowly made manifest and further evidence of it may be expected as the months of this new year pass into spring and summer.
