Keeping Out the Heat.

When the Bedouins of the desert 90
on caravan journey in the heat of
the summer, they wrap themselves up
in their WOODEN cloaks so as to be fully.
but not tightly enveloped. Then they
wrap the ends of their kaffiah, or head
dress, loosely around their faces, Ieav-
ing only their eyes and nose exposed,
They say that the covering keeps out
the heat. Henry Martyr, the first
modern missionary to the Moslems,
followed their example. When he was
travelling through Persia on his way
back to the home in England that he
never reached, he encountered a tenn
perature of 120 degrees in the shade,
SO he wrapped himself up in his
blanket. The practice of covering up
the chin and mouth is most excellent
The sands of the desert reflect like a
metal mirror the heat and glare of the
blazing sun Something must be done
for protection against the heat under
foot as well as the heat over head

Lewis Of Illinois, Democrat, today in
PRODUCED q resolution which would eX-
press il 10 he the sense of the senate

SCRUPLES ON MEAT AND DAYS
Christians Found Themselves in
Differing Attitudes.

In Pauls day there was the ques-
ton of meat offered to idols. Much
of the market product was of this
character; it had been used in sacri
flee to the pagan gods. Was it, there
fore, tainted with heathenism? Might
a Christian eat it? If he did, might
he not be accused of participating in
the idOlatrouS ceremonies? To Paul
himself an idol was nothing; the serv-
ices did nothing to the meat; he could
eat 1t without question, and so advised
his COrinthian friends. Yet he recog-
nized special cases where he and
others would abstain because of the
law of love and the conscientious
scruples of another.
The other veXcd question arose over
the gradual substitution of Sunday
for Saturday, as the Sabbath rest
day. The Lords day, the day of
resurrection, the first day, became the
generally accepted Christian Sabbath.
Some Jewish Christians felt this TO
be very wrong. and indeed there are
| fine, stalwart Christians today who
feel as they did. But the great ma
! jority took the view that the leading
| of the spirit warranted the departure
| from the letter.-The Christian Her
aid.

Down to Brass Tacks.

Do you remerber the short-term
endowment orders which ran riot in
this state a quarter of a century ago
Under one of them the man entering
when it had $4,000 members, with hisy
payments on that basis, could make a
good killing if, at the expiry of his
contract, ~, 600 members were con-
tributing toward his "jackpot. The
thing worked just as long as its mem
bership was advancing. The crash
came when that was no longer possible.
Something Of the same principle APP
plies to public Indebtedness. 1t is great
fun spending the money. When a com
munitv can get an Improvement for
what looks, on the face of things, like
per cent of its cost-the immediate
interest charge-it buys and builds lib
orally. 1t is only when the mass of
these obligations begins to take on
.sodden weight that the patient feels
that something is wrong.
| Our cities and counties and states
and other agencies of governmental ac
ton have Of late been piling up debts
at a furious rate. You would be sur
prised at the totals of public indebted
ness of Massachusetts. You could not
dismiss them as so many figures. Every
body charged with a municipal budget
knows how large a contribution these
obligations make to its distressing to-
tai.
1t is vet to be demonstrated that the
public will on referendum consider
money-spending projects with any ade-
quate realization of resulting ledger
balances. In the extreme democracies
of Australia and New Zealand public
Indebtedness has reached amazing pro-
/, portions, over the effects of which seri-
Gus students in those lands are now
gravely alarmed. And we have seri-
Gus problem of public debt right here
in Massachusetts.
We believe it the duty of an indie
pendent newspaper to protect against
such tendencies of the times, even at
the risk of seeming hard-hearted. We
believe this time for getting our pub
lie expenses in hand, rather than for
opening new accounts. The state ought
{ to spend more money than it does fol-
its insane hospitals and penal instltu
tions. The state prison should be re
! moved from Charlestown.
, These are only samples of existing
: needs which continue unmet. We want
more money than we are now getting
for the old-fashioned lines of govern
ment We ought to strengthen sucl
work as we have undertaken, instead o.
rushing headlong into unfamiliar fields
And we ought, financially speaking, t
T set our house in order. Unless we d.
Q this there win be some ''squealing
+. before many years.-Boston Herald.

Landmarks to Peace.

Continually the good in nature,
