il there was anything in the earth
that would make heaven brighter
Finally il was decided to send one OF
their number to earth to seek out al
ornament for heaven.
The angel winged its way to earth
and stopped by a full blown rose
Surely" said the messenger, "this
is more beautiful than anything il
heaven" So the angel plucked the
rose and started heavenward, but just
as it reached the portal the ange
looked down and 10! the rose had vii.
ted and lay dropping in the folds OF
its garments.
Again the angel returned to earth
This time it halted in night time By
the side Of flowing river, the water.
of which were made beautiful by
the shadows and lights from a fui
risen moon. Nothing can be NOR,
beautiful than this" said the angel as
it began its heavenward flight carry
ing the bit of scenery. When near
ing the gate of that future land tn,
angel looked and behold the morning
sun had kissed away the sparkling
water and the picture had flown witt
the departing mists.
Once more the angel tried. Thi.
time it halted near sleeping babl
and saw the sweet smile of innocence
that was playing over its countenance
"The glory of the heavens canno'
surpass in beauty the smile of sleep
ing ehildhoor," said the angel, ane
with a happy heart it started bach
TO paradise carrying the smile in the
hollow of its hand but when out from
the surroundings of earth, when be-
yond the beauties of childhood tn,
smile changed to IA frown and tht
angel had again lost in its search foi
Earth's Holy Grail for Heaven.
"Try once again." choroused th'
other angels, after the disappointed
one of their number told of the mis-
fortunes that had followed the search
So once again the white robet
traveller between heaven and eartl
pierced the intervening space. Thi
time it stopped amid the tenement dis
tricts of big city. In one of tn
rooms it beheld mother holding
baby to her breast with one ham
while she performed her work wit
the other. Looking closer, the ange
saw the CLEAN of mother love tina
peamed from her tired eyes as sh
often looked at the sleeping babe il
her arms. Instantly the angel re
allied that it had found something
that would adorn and beautify HEAVIER
fo- ever. So it tenderly bore tha
CLEAN of mother love from the fac
of the tired woman TO heaven AM
when the other angels saw it the.
entwined it over the Throne of Coz
and there it remains, its sparkling
light ever reckoning God't children t.
His throne.

The new anti-treating regulation
went into eject in England Sunday
There is $500 fine and six months
Imprisonment for those who disobey
the law This means the sale oi
liquors will be curtailed at least 81
per cent. There was good deal OF
fun poked at late Eugene Engly for
his anti-treating measure introduced
in the Colorado general assembly
but there was much merit in it just
the same. There is not half as much
reason why one should buy drinks for
a lot of fellows lining up to the bar
as there is in buying half dollars
worth of beefsteak for hungry child
rem, at the same time the money for
Grink is spent lavishly while even a
quarter for the worthy poor is Civ
en- grudgingly. With u no treat law,
those who desire drink can 90 and
get what they want and then depart.
1t would put a stop to much of the
excessive drinking and drunkenness.
It's being "a good fellow and dislike
Of being called tightwad that caus-
es most of the drinking. When one
has had free drink, he thinks it is
his duty to buy the return drinks and
when there are half a dozen or so in
the crowd it means just that many
drinks too many. Even the saloon
men will agree with this statement.
