In spite Of the damage done to

rare cases some even suffered the loss

Cleanliness and Goodness.

Two members of Latin-American
family, staying at a New York hotel,
were paying their first visit to the new
Turkish baths in the basement of the
hotel recently. They stopped for a
moment, to survey the room. The pot
plants held their attention for brief
moment, but the oil paintings, pictur-
ing Biblical subjects, hung so as to
almost completely cover the walls,
seemed a study to them. "Why has
the management of this place put such
divinely religious subjects at the en-
trance to Turkish bath?" asked one.
The others brow knit for moment /;
then came the slow response: "The
reason here seems easy" he said;
Cleanliness is Goodness"

Mans Little Failing.

As general thing. taken by large.
men are honest-except with them
selves. A man will cheat himself on
his score at golf, when he knows that
failing to set down the full number Of
strokes does not make him better
golfer. If he Is fat man and is di.
citing to reduce, he will shove the
weight back pound or two on his
scales, when he knows In his heart he
is heavier than that. Then he will
tell his friends about "going around

his diet. With these two exceptions
almost every man is honest. There
fore, all You need to do is to discount
what he says about golf or reducing.

Variability In Men.

"Whatever may be ones reply to

Body men as group are more 'varia-

What Is Margarine.

Margarine is coming into use much
more generally in Europe, since the
war made prices of butter prohibitive
to people of the poorer classes. Orig
inally composed Of beef fat from
slaughterhouse offal, with the addition
of, some essential oil, margarine is now
made chiefly Of oils expressed from
nuts and seeds, the soy-bean, and cotton
seed among them, together with a
blend Of pastcurized skim milk. Ply

Surface Living.

"Most Of US continue to live unnec-
essarily near our surface" said Pro-
fessor james, when speaking Of the
stored-up resources Of energy hidden
In man, and seldom drawn upon. "The
plain fact remains that men, the world
over, possess amounts of resources
which only the exceptional individual
pushes to their full use" Surface liv-
ing, leaving untouched our greatest
capacities, physical, mental and moral,
makes our lives commonplace and un-
satisfactory. We mourn that we &C.
complish so little, but we do not put
our whole selves either into our work
or into our religion, into our aims for
this world or for the next. with all
thy heart, and with all thy soul, and
with all thy mind" was Gods measure
for devotion when the law was given.

ical and the spiritual life Of power,

Related vindieation.

The Persians of the time Of Cyrus
were ZOroastrians. The Persian relig-
ion was primitively monotheistic, and
they allowed no idols or other mate
rial symbols Of deity in their tenn
pies. There was less enmity on the
part Of the Jews against the Persians
than against the other great nations
with whom they came in contact, due
probably to the monotheism which
characterized the Persian religion. So
Cyrus, whatever .elseN may be said OF
him, was certainly not an idolator.-

Hen Llkea Eiah.

That aquatic birds should delight il
sea foods or their fresh-water equiv
alents Is not surprising, but that the
hen, strictly landlubber, should pre-
fer fish above all other foods is less
to be expected. 1t Is true, however.
In fact, the educational department Of

gests that man could learn a lesson

served at the Congregational church
last Sunday morning, the regular SER
vice being given over to a special pro-
gram of music and recitations by the
Sunday school that reflected much work
and careful preparation by instructors
and pupils. During the services Rev
Stevens made an announcement which
was good news indeed for boys and
girls, and parents as well. He will re-
vive the Boy Scout and Camp Fire Girl
organisations While pastor at South
Milwaukee he had charge Of two patrols
of scouts for four years, and so the
good pastor is not only endowed with
the qualities of heart but practical ex-
perience as well for success in this
work. He has waited some time for
the community to take action, but it
having failed. Rev. Stevens feels that
our youth should not be neglected
The organizations will be absolutely
non-sectarian in character, and we ask
for them a united public sentiment.
