ed to their care for the coming year
Years of faithful service as super
intendent of the Sunday school has
placed Mr.. H. C. Stephens very
close to the heart of the church,
which is the heart of the people he
has served so faithfully. Giving a
large share of his time to this work,
using the talents with which God
has endowed him, has enabled him,
by the help of the Master, to see the
results of his labors, as the Lake
land Baptist Sunday school is the
largest and best equipped in the
State.
The sermon of the morning was
an admonition to the teachers and
leading in the church work Text
Timothy 4:16: Take heed unto
myself and unto the doctrine; CON
tinue in them; for in doing this thou
shalt both save thyself and them
that hear thee " No teacher can
rise higher than the life he leads,

right side. Each teacher must be
rooted and grounded in the essential
doctrines as taught in the New Tes-
lament. The power OF such a life

example. Our safety depends upon
what we believe-fidelity to the
truths of Jesus Christ; knowing the

be emphasized with precision as the
maximum length of life on diet of
such demineralized foods where there
is no opportunity for an accidental or

1t is certain that IL the victims of
the kronprinz Wilhelm's unhappy eX-
perience had been removed from the
German cruiser to a hospital and sub
jected to the conventional hospital
treatment, including tea, white bread
toast, butter, mashed potatoes, corn
starch, pudding, farina, cream nof

them would have been doomed to tu-
berculosis if tuberculosis had not al

Their only hope of complete res
toration to health, which means COM
plete repair o. all the damage done
and a return of nutritional immunity
against disease, lay in a prolonged
diet of foods containing an excess of
base-forming elements and a deficiency
of acid-forming elements, such as has
been described here frequently.

of these foods will be provided. The

the New York policemen for many peo-
pie They are such hearty, ruddy,
healthy looking men, think 1t never
occurs to most of us that they can be
hungry or in need of the necessities of
life
Unquestionably the policeman's ia
mlllarlty with the disorderly type of
street riff-raff hardens his heart after a
time and causes him to be more or less
brusque in his treatment of these un-
fortunates
A young woman of the writer's ac.
quaintance was Unexpectedly detained
over night at a friends house where
she had dined. Her home was only a
few blocks distant; in the morning
she started to walk home this short
distance with long wrap covering her
evening gown; she was hit by an iron
pole which was being carried in a
wagon by careless driver. ... ..
The young woman was unconscious
for some moments. When she awakened
she found herself in the hands of a
very severe policeman, who considered
her, evidently, from her evening cos
tune, much the worse for liquor, He
was determined to convey her to the
station house and was very skeptical
when she assured him that she was a
respectable individual, with a home
near by. She was finally allowed to
return to her home, and called a phy-
sician to attend to her bruises.
No doubt the policemen become har-
dened in their too frequent contempla-
tion of the rough and disorderly ele-
ment and too frequently find state
ments made to them by those whom
they are obliged to arrest lacking foun-
dation in truth. Compassion is not
only the policemen's need but the need
of humanity to-day.

time. 1t is too bad the officer laughed
at the young woman, but if he had con-
versed with her for a few minutes he
would be leaving himself liable to
charges for which he would surely be
fined as much as five days pay. If
you don't believe this. go down to the
trial room at Police Headquarters any
trial day, and you will find conditions
the more deserving of your sympathy
than the dogs.
She probably never thought that there
was a human shoo-fy watching the
policeman, ready to frame him up for
fifteen minutes conversation if he
spoke to her for two. Did she stop
to think what kind of a reception the
policeman would get at the station
house if he brought in a stray dog to
Mr.. Lieutenant?
You don't need any school to teach
policemen kindness to animals. Just
now, we are studying physiology, psy-
chology, idiosyncrasy, laws, ordinances,
rules, drill and gymnastics, and, occa-
sionally, our chaplain lectures lis on
theology. III we require anything fur
tber, ii is the insane asylum.

not unkind to suffering animals (as we
are friends in misery. But we are a
little jealous of the rich ladys dog, so
