Religion Of Ancient Rome.

The religion Of the old Romans
was patriotism. In the republic -
or in its better days, at least-the
love Of country was the all dominat-
ing feeling. Rome was all. To live
for it, to die for it, to sacrifice on
behalf of it's welfare the most sacred
possessions of life, was the Romans
religion. Decius, Regulus and the
rest of the worthless who cheerfully
sacrificed themselves upon the al
tar Of their country were the Roman
Saints" To do all for the state,
and, having done all, to die for it if
necessary-that was the religion of
the men who made Rome the capital
of the world.-Exchange.

il ARMY.

No sane man today car posi-

the United States is with respect
to the world could do without
an army. ALI stable govern
ment rests upon the possibility
Of using force to secure obedi-
ence to its DEGREES. judicial
tribunals are successful In 0p-
Grafton not because the unsuc.
cessful sutton is satisfied with
the decision, is pleased with the
reasoning of the court adverse
to his contention or Is overcome
by the magnetism Of the Judge
in rendering his judgment. They
succeed because Of the knowl-
edge Of the defeated sutton that
the whole force Of the state is
back Of every judgment and
that to resist would be worse
than useless. And so 1t must be
with nations until another day
has dawned and many Of the at
tributes Of men which nav guide
their conduct have been changed
for other and different ones. 1t
is absolutely essential for any
nation today to maintain sufi-
cient force to secure the carry
ing out Of its decrees.-Secretary

River the latter part of last week over
the disappearance Of R. A. Calf, CASH
Ter of the First National bank at that
place, and it was rumored that there
was a shortage in his accounts. 1t
now appears that Mr.. Calf had gone
to Vermont to visit some relatives and
is expected back today or tomorrow.
There may be some slight, irregulari-
ties but none have been discovered up
to the present writing, and financially
the bank is in excellent condition.
