filled with shelves. the ignorant man
can reach the lower shelf, where rest
the materials for his hut, his bow, his
fishing net. Only an occasional man
has SO cultivated his intellect that he
can reach the topmost shelf, where
God has placed all the secrets, electric
and chemical and mental. But are
we not forced to admit that American
civilization has reached for and found
only the lower shelves, and finding
these rests content? Have we not
said that the poor boy who through
industry and thrift, and perhaps an
element of luck, has acquired riches,
is a greater success than that other
boy who by reflection and study be-
comes a world scholar, and turns his
whole energy to the accumulation Of
the rubies of knowledge?
A third word must be included in
the discussion Legislation. We live
in a realm of law Now there is such
a thing as a negative attitude toward
life. There is vast difference to-
ward not committing sin and being
enthusiastic for Righteousness. The
Decalogue can keep youth out of the
penitentiary, but the Decalogue can
not produce great poet or phil
osopher. No crown was ever woven
out of negatives. Wreaths of honor
represent the slow growths of posi-
tive virtues. Find out the law and
obey it," said Hooker, when he spoke
of law as the structure of the universe
and the melody of the world And the
time has come for our generation to
surrender itself to the great positives
of life and character. A great char
acter means the entering into the
soul of the great positive virtues, that
exalt, enlarge, sweeten and refine the
whole man.

the entire purchase price.
The Tungchou Committee invited
the former postmaster of that neigh

er. From the day when the new
chapel was opened, it was thronged
by the simple farming folk from the
villages. But it was decided to try
to introduce the new place to the
conservative officials and gentry of
the city by means of a lecture in the,
little hall that seats comfortably two
hundred people. The Y. NJ. c. A. had
loaned us apparatus for an illustrated
lecture on atmospheric pressure. A
dozen young men of good education,
who, in that exclusive city, are mem

were organized into a most efficient

(By JOSEPH H. GRAY

That the saloon is the Poor Mans
Club and that he is as much en-

in equal to the man in better circum-
stances is ever argued by opponents
Of prohibition. That other meeting
places, which viii serve equally as
well for Club purposes will replace
the saloon he either does not consider
or denies.
When prohibition was voted into
AriZona's constitution, and in the 10
weeks before it became operative,
practically every respectable club in
the state disposed Of. its stock of
liquors, either over its bar or by auc-
ton sale among its members. Those
that did not put the liquor away in
cellars or vaults under lock and key.
Thus the club member retained no

were not equally retained by the habi.

many of the saloons in Arizona when

also introduced soft drink bars. Ia.
hles were puC in where dominos, card
games other than those banned by law
or for money might be played, and
other accommodations furnished for
those who would formerly find them
in the saloon. These places have re-
placed the saloon as the poor mans

CHAPTER III.


1t was doubtful whether the al
dermen would permit anyone to sell.
But the Tungchou Evangelistic Com
mittee managed to borrow thousand
dollars, to be repaid in ten annual in
stalments, and tried to find Chinese
to negotiate in behalf of the church
for a place. Till they found there
was danger of the church's buying
property under false pretenses.
Whereupon two foreigners themselves
went down, and found, to their aston
ishment, that half dozen proprietors
were ready to sell directly and openly
to the church. 49,.
There was no Dank in Precious Isl.
land that did business in Tungchou,
and the owner was unwilling to ae-
cept banknotes, nor did he dare, in a
country infested with robbers, to be
responsible for taking the silver home
from Tungchou. But our trusty old
carter said there was no danger of
any robbers attacking foreigner.
So his sturdy nephew hitched two
lean mules a-tandem to the springless,
two-wheeled cart that is the carriage
deluxe of China, set out at half-past
five of a cold winter morning, and ar
rived in Precious Island at half-past
four of the same afternoon. Till ne
gotiations were completed at two
O'Clock next day. the missionary dared
not part from the silver. 1t was his
pillow by night.
A Deed-of-saIe.
In return for it he received the
most tattered old deed-of-sale you
can imagine. of date 1892, which reads
in part as follows: From the date Of
this sale the purchaser may repair
the property, occupy it, rent it, and
administer it,; and l guarantee that
none of my relatives, near or remote,
nor my brothers nor children nor
nephews. who have anything to say
about this property, will contest this
deed, or do anything of that sort n
difficulty of that kind should arise,
it devolves entirely upon the seller
and the brokers to settle the matter
