Parable Of a Stone in the Shoe

Now among my friends are certain
that are Lovers of Nature; and they
said, Go to, let us gather ourselves
together, and go upon Hike.
So we gathered ourselves together,
and went out into the Forest, at the
time when the Leaves were begin
ming to Turn; and some of them
were Red, and some of them were
Yellow; and there were Divers Col
ors; even like unto the Coat of
Joseph.
And after we had walked for about
the space of one hour, one of the men
complained, saying, There is Some
thing in my Shoe; and / believe it is
Stone; and when l walk it Hurteth
me.
And we spake unto him, saying,
Loose now thy Shoe from off thy
foot and remove the Stone; for what
profit is it for thee TO walk with a
Stone in thy Shoe?
And he said, Nay, for the others
would walk away from me.
But he answered, Nay, | will not
cause others to wait on my account;
i will even suffer and proceed.
But he caused the rest of us to
suffer; for thrice in every Furlong
he told us of the Stone in his Shoe,
and how it hurt him, and how Great
was the size of thereof. For the
Stone at the first seemed to him
like unto a grain of sand, but it Grew
until it was like unto the size of a
Synagogue in greatness.
And at noontime we halted, and we
opened our provisions, and did eat;
and we sat upon the fallen leaves in
the Autumn Sunshine and were con-
tent.
But he was not content. For he
removed his shoe, and found therein
a very small Stone, and a very large
Blister. And the Stone he cast out,
but the Blister he kept. And all the
residue of the day, even unto the set
ting of the Sun, he limped, and COM
planned about how he suffered from
that Blister. But about the way the
rest of us suffered therefrom spake
he nothing.
And it came to pass about the go
ing down of the sun, that l rebuked
him, and said,
All this forenoon didst thou weary
us with thy complainings of the
Stone, and all the afternoon hast thou
prosecuted us with thy meanings
concerning the Blister; and thou
didst deserve both the Blister and the
Stone.
And / mediated thereon, and / said
in my soul, He that hath a small
Fault, and correcteth it not while yet
it is small, is like unto a man who
walketh until the Noontide with a
Stone in his shoe, and continueth all
the residue of the day to suffer with
the hurt thereof; yea. verify, and
likewise doth he hurt others.

A Great Change

The dry people all over this nation
rejoiced when the M. E. church at
Flint bought a big brewery there and
made a NJ. E. church of it. The bust
ness of the Lord had a new victory
and the forces of King Alcohol were
beaten in that fight.
Now another big victory is won.
This time it is in Chicago, Ill.
The Illinois conference of the Lu-
theran Augustana Synod has just
made a deal that has secured an old
brewery property, the so-called Bar
thodomaee & Leitcht property, located
at Garfield and Sedgwich streets in
Chicago, for price of 100000 for
erecting large and modern hospital.
An institution that had worked for
the destruction of human life and
happiness runs out of business and
another which has as its aim restora-
ton of health and happiness is so
prosperous that it takes hold of the
obsolete brewery and changes it into
a good hospital.
That is the way it ought to go.
Honor to the Lutheran Augustana
conference of Illinois.

Alcohol a Stimulant

Alcohol is indeed a stimulant at
the first; but, if it is used in larger
quantities, it produces a narcotic eff

staining soldiers endure the hardships
of war best. Also the beverage use
of alcohol leads easily to intemper-
ance and the slackening of discipline.
Therefore, alcoholic liquors are to be
used only with the greatest caution
and are to be avoided entirely on the
march. The use of alcohol for the
purpose of producing warmth is dan

WAYS With Peanuts

Peanuts are so cheap, so common
and so wholesome that one should
learn more ways of serving them. In
different localities it is called by vari-
Gus names, goober, ground nut,
ground pea and earth nut. 1t is
classed with nuts, but it really be-
longs to the leguminous plants, to
which peas and beans belong. Pea
nut oil used as a shortening is a good
substitute for olive oil. The peanut
forms a very nutritious article of

is KING OF URBAN TREES
Elm Famous for Developing Fine Sym.
metry When Allowed to
Grow Alone.

"The elm is essentially self-sufti-
cient tree. 1t does not thrive in
groves" Walter Prichard Eaton writes
in the Century. "It has standard
tyne of it's own, and it either attains
this type or is lost to view. The elm
which comes to maturity is usually
the one which has lodged in favored
spot where there is no competition,
such as a river meadow, where the
spring freshets have dropped the seed
on fertile soil and the roots can get
down to water.
I'VE all know the, type, the noble
-rrunE OF massive gfrth tapering very
gradually upward to the first spring
of branches, and then dissolving in
those branches as water jet might
dissolve in many upward and outcurv-
ing streams, till the whole is lost in
the spray of the foliage. Like many
other trees that grow alone, 1t devel-
ops an exquisite symmetry; but with
the elm this symmetry is not only one
of general contour, but Of individual
limbs. Not only is the silhouette SYM
metrical, but the skeleton also, branch
balancing branch That is what gives
it it's remarkable fitness to comport
with architectural lines, with geome-
trically designed vistas. It has a
formal structure and consequent dig
nifty which makes it the logical shade
for village street, chapel, library,
the scholarly procession in cap and
gown. Add to that dignity its arched
and airy lightness and its splendid
size, and you have the king of urban
trees"

HOUSING QUESTION is VITAL
Practically No More Important Things
Can Be Given Attention by
/ City Planners.

II be said that there is no plane
of human existence in society whlcn
the housing question does not touch.
There is no form of vice, crime, depli-
ity or shiftlessness which bad housing
does not tend to nurture. Keeping up
appearances is often decried, and de-
serves much of the reproach cast upon
it when it simply means unwarranted
extravaganza to maintain a position
which ones income does not justify
but among the poor it is an ever
present aid to the maintenance OF sell
respect and is to be encouraged rather
than decried.
During his campaign for the presi-
dency the late BENJAMIN Harrison Ut
tered an epigram which made him the
target of much criticism. He said: a
cheap coat makes cheap man, ana
this statement, which was intended to
epitomize his views on the protective
tariff, was twisted into meaning that
people whose clothes were cheap were
purchasable. This was not true, anG
It would be no more true that bad
housing made bad citizens under all
circumstances. But, next to an lnaoe-
auate and unwholesome food supply
Door housing does stand as the most
deleterious element in our civic life.
Sanitary research shows how. import
ant Is the reaction Of adequate llgnt
and ventilation on the health, stamina
and moral character of individuals.
Bad housing furnishes the fruitful nur-
series of disease germs of all kinds,
while at the same time creating con-
ditions which prevent the building up
of resistance to their inroads.
