OF God. There Is nothing IN the
raising of Lazarus from the dead
unworthy Of God. He had been dead
long enough for modification to be-
gin. His ears were dumb, his limbs
were stiff, his mouth was closed, his
eyes were set. His body was like any
other dead body. Where his soul
was is not revealed. It is enough
that Jesus commands it to take up
its abode in his body again and the
scul and body Immediately became
one. This was not the Resurrection.
II was merely the resurrection Of
Lazarus to his natural and earthly
LIE. One may ask why he did not
tell something about the beyond. II

Denver.-The long appropriation
bill, for maintenance of the various
state departments, was introduced IN
the House. 1t carries total appro-
priation of $1,S66,355, which is about
S275,000 more than the same bill car
ried two years ago when introduced.
This increase is made up principally
of the sum of $4,000 granted to the
governor for the mobilization OF the
national guard in the event OF war
with Germany and $10o,25s.S3 for the
Industrial Commission. The approprl-
alton for the latter commission two
years ago was carried in separate
bill and SO was not included in the
long appropriation bill.
In addition to these two items prac-
tically the only increases are $2O,OOo
to the governor for liquor law en-
forcement instead of $4,000, as
granted two years ago, and $4,000 ad-

BENEFITS OF WAR

1t is pointed out by many students
of history that each great war has
brought with it many discoveries that
have proved a benefit to humanity. A
noted historian and lecturer has said
that war is necessary for the rejuven-
alton of a nation. Men are called
upon to put forth extraordinary eff
forts in every line of endeavor. and
wonderful results are obtained.
Announcement by the internal reve-
nue. division laboratory at Washington
that a process for manufacturing
glycerine from sugar has been discov-
cred heralds a discovery that will
prove the saving of millions to this
country during the present war-and
will doubtless lead to other benefits
in peace. Glycerine has been manu-
factured from fats at a cost of 80
cents a pound. The new process will
reduce its cost to only 25 cents a
pound, and will at the same time save
the fat supply of the nation for food.
The immense importance of this dis
covery is pointed out in that Ger
many's fat shortage is largely due to
the use of fats for making explosives.
Germany has long since been forced
to discontinue the manufacture of
soap for lack of fats. The United
States will now be able to avoid this
adversely, even if the war should con-
tinue for several years.
But, Notwithstanding all these
benefits, war must remain a thing to
be abhorred. Never will the day
come when scientific discoveries will
pay for the lives that are sacrificed
on the battlefield. The simple COM
mandment, Thou shalt not kill" is
far more potent in the advancement
of civilization than the most valuable
of chemical formulas.

ence on health is exerted by those

quently require for our existence,
and this is especially true of water
and air" This statement is as true
today as it was when first uttered.

on these scores at least, for we can

"GOd, the Invisible King.

If another than H. G. Wells had
written God the Invisible King" it
might easily have remained unnoticed
in this year, when pretty much every
body in the world is preoccupied with
other things. But because Mr.. Wells.
the novelist has the ear of such large
and intelligent audience, and because
the monograph is so widely preadver-
tised by his best selling war novel, his
God the Invisible King, achieves an
Importance all out of proportion to
its intrinsic worth. 1t has been wide
ly heralded that the book presents an
elaboration of Mr.. Britling's theologi-
cal ideas, and that fact alone will in
sure it thousands of readers.
That many people will read God.
the Invisible King" and talk about it
afterward. makes it impossible to ig-
more Mr.. Wells theology. 1t must be
reckoned with. Because Mr.. Wells
announces a definite break with the
Christianity of theological history and
creed. he can hardly hope to escape
| the condemnation of militant church
men. The sarcasm with which he dis
poses of the doctrine of the Trinity
and his Indifference about Immortality
! will deprive him of the sympathy of
the defenders of all faiths that in
clude these articles in their creeds.
| 1t will not be necessary to excommun-
icate Mr. Wells; he has theoretically
placed himself beyond the pale of
all Christian communions.
Actually, however, Mr.. Wells relig-
ion is not so violently in conflict with
Christian practice as it is with creed.
He believes in the Christian virtues
and Christian social ideals. Without
the leavening influence of Christianity,
the evolution of the human mind
| would hardly have produced the Wells
type of religion. Yet Mr. Wells ex-
plicitly refuses to achieve his religion
| by modifying Christianity and neg
lects to acknowledge that the so-called
modern religion is indebted to any
earlier creed The modern religion sis
appearing simultaneously round and
| about the world exactly as a crystal
izing substance appears here and there
| in supersaturated solution" 1t is
pretty figure. but that is hardly the
| way ideas have appeared and been
spread through the world until now.
| Those who are progressive in their
way of thinking about religion may be
delighted with the cleverness with
which a superstition is annihilated
or a dogma is done to death, but they
must be disappointed that fewer hap
py phrases come to his aid when Mr.
| Wells is dealing with the constructive
side of his problem. Mr. Wells gen.
ius is genius for criticism and ami
madversion. For this reason he and
his book will do little to hasten mil
lennium when orthodoxy and heter-
odoxy shall discuss these questions
with mutual charity and forbearance.
Mr.. Wells himself can not qualify for
such golden epoch of tolerance. Toll
Grant enough to admit into his relig-
ious fellowship the heather with his
idol, he still can not bear with the
Christian and his creed.

Berlin, March 1.-THE prominence
which Chancellor Won Bethmann-Holl-
veg gave In his utterances to the
reichstag to discussion of relations
with the United States is regarded here
as Indicating his purpose to prepare
the German public for the eventuality,
which is looked forward to in many
quarters. AT this hour it may be said
that declaration of war from Wash
ington would find the German mind
quite prepared for it, Less of a rip
pie would be caused here than was
occasioned by Roumania's entrance
into the war, and a final break with
the United States would be likely to
meet with stoical Indifference, so far
as the public at large is concerned.

BODY WASHED AWAY
Miss Hoy Succumbs After Hold
ing Dying Parent.
watts Died in Arms of Fiancee, Who
Protected Him With Her
Hair.

Liverpool, March Rev. f. Dhns-
Indies, passenger on the Laconia,
who administered the last rites Of the
Roman Catholic church to seven per-
sons who perished, gave the Associated
Press the following account Of the
deaths of Mrs. Mary Hoy and Miss
Elizabeth Hoy Of Chicago, and Cedric
lkafts ef lsaRdaIl,
Mrs. Hoy died In the arms of her
daughter. Her body slipped off into
the sea out of her daughters weak
ened arms. The heart-broken daugh-
ter succumbed a few minutes after
ward, and her body fell over the side
of the boat as we were tossed by the
huge waves.
"In icy water up to her knees for
two hours the daughter all the time
bravely supported her aged mother, ut
tering words of encouragement to her.
From the start both were violently sea-
sick, which, coupled with the cold and
exposure, gradually wore down their
courage. They were brave women"
After a pause Father Sargent con-
tinued:
"The first to die in our boat was w.
Irvine Robinson of Toronto. After
his body had been consigned to the sea,
we tossed about for an hour, getting
more and more water until the gun
wales were almost level with the sea.
Then Mr.. Watts, who was not physi-
cally strong, suctumbed in the arms Of
his f1ancee, who was close beside him,
trying in vain to keep him warm by
throwing her wealth of hair about his
neck. Even after he died she refused
to give him up, and, although the ad-
ditional weight made the situation
more dangerous for us all, we yielded
to her pitiful pleading, and allowed her
to keep the body. 1t was taken aboard
the rescuing patrol, from which it was
buried. The burial aboard the patrol,
at which officiated, was solemn and
memorable ceremony.
"The Hoys were the next 70 pass
away after Mr.. Watts. Then a fire.
man died, and later two others of the
crew who were too thinly clad to re-
sist exposure.
Altogether we were in the boat
ten hours. We were rescued in the
middle of the morning"
