WHAT DO THEY MEAN

What does Political Socialist
mean, when they say they do not
want the Bible brought in this
controversy?
Here is where they make the
worst failure of their whole sys-
tenn of government reform.
God Almighty placed man here,
and gave him a law to 60 by.
And that Law is perfect for the
man to live under; 1t needs no
changing, neither does it need a
substitute. The law of the profit
system, which is the substitute
gotten up by man TO take the
place of Gods Law, And the
only thing that the Socialists
party needs at the head Of their
Reform Plan, is the Bible.
And when they do that: Wilson,
Tumulty, or any other man may
quote any part. or refer to any
passage of the Bible. and the
same scripture, they refer to,
will condemn them on PREPAR
EDNESs.
Whenever you Socialists have
a scripture quoted on you by the
Plutocrats, that you cannot turn
on them and make it burn them

They have laid aside those
Grand and Noble principles, and
for their own selfish interests
they have substituted their own
interest to the detramcnt of the
many. For this reason we must
say that this country is far from
being a Christian Nation, The
Political parties testify this fact,
For they say themselves that
their political party has nothing
to do with christianity. And
that state and church should
have nothing to do with ca III
other, This without anything
else would prove that this Nation
is not a Christian Nation. And
il our President hold it to be,
a Christian Nation he himself
should prove himself to- be
a Christian. Then he could
not mold up for preparedness
because Christ said to Peter
put up thy sword" And said
to all of them Il send you forth
as sheep among wolves, but be
we wise as serpents, but as
har mless as doves. This
Nation must follow those rules
or else they have become in this
manner unchristianized. They
must beat their swords into plow

A Kindness That
Failed
~ MANN Vill>oa
Copyright, by J. b. Lppincott Coz
BY Martin Willsoa

Hawkins is one of those amiable and
philanthropic men who are always
ready to fall over themselves In their
efforts to do q kind deed, no matter
how trifling in Importance it may be.
One day Hawkins was on q railroad
train, and directly in front of him
in the crowded car sat big, red
faced, pugilistic looking man and de-
mure looking little woman. Presently
the efy-looking man got up and went
forward into the smoking car.
At the next station but one the de-
mure looking little woman got up and
left the train. She had been gone but
a moment when Hawkins noticed she
had left handsome silk umbrella with
an ebony and silver handle on the seat
in which she had been sitting. Here
was Hawkins opportunity to obey the
old song in which we are hidden to
Do a kind deed when you can, brother,
Do a kind ded when you can.
Snatching up the umbrella, Hawkins
ran quickly to the door of the car and
looked for the woman in the crowd
distance from the car talking to q
herdic driver, and he was about ia
hasten after her when the conductor
called out:
"All aboard"
Handing the umbrella to a boy by
the car step, Hawkins said:
Here. boy! Hand this umbrella te
that lady with the blue hat talking tc
the herdic driver at the end Of the plat
form. She left 1t on the train. Per
haps she'll give you five cents for re
turning 1t to her--yes, yes, the lady
in black, with the blue hat"
The train started, and Hawkins wen
back to his seat with an inward exalta
ton that comes from the doing of 6
good deed
The train had gone three or fou
miles when the beefy and pugilistic
4, looking individual came into the car
and, walking up to the seat he had va
Gated, looked around for moment
and then said to Hawkins:
'Scuse me, my friend, have 20,
seen anything Of an umbrella l lef
on this seat when l went forward int,
the smoker?"
Hawkins paled as he said:
"Er-ah-ah-oh, did you leave al
umbrella on this seat?"
That's what l did! An bral

At that moment the conductor er

'Lookee here. Mr.. Conductor, some

A hook-nosed old woman with a pair
Of small black eyes glittering behind

lean finger towards Hawkins, said In
q high-pitched. nasal voice:
