BIBLE WITHIN REACH OF ALL

The Bible is the most valuable and
the cheapest book in the world. It's
value we all acknowledge, but dld you
know that you could buy n complete
Bible Of 1000 double pages for 30
cents in Germany and II cents in Eng
land ana the United States? And
copies OF the New Testament are sold
In England for Il penny aplCCel
In the thirteenth century a fine Eng
fish Bible cost $50.

or course he didn't. Tic went to tho
churches, whore the precious volume
was chained to the desk to keep It
safe, and there he read the exciting
Old Testament stories or the beaut-
full Gospels, or more likely listened to
render who was better educated
than he.
In those days the Bible was val
liable IN every way. Today a work
man may buy the New Testament by
walking home one night instead Of
taking the car, or giving up the potato
he had planned for his dinner.-From

CASE OF 40 UNTO OTHERS"
Grsndma's Sizing Up of the Situation
Showed Pretty Good Judgment
of Human Nature.

The wise man Solomon remarked a
long time ago that If man is to have
friends. he must show himself friend
ly and 1t might be said now that II
man is himself a good neighbor, he
is mighty likely to have good neigh
bors-as a rule.
On this point we recently ran across
an interesting farm story, fresh from
the prairies Of the West. The moral
Is one that cannot be too often empha-
Sized and this is the story as the
American Cooperative Journal gives
1T:
"They tell of an old grandma who
was sitting in front of her home, knit
ting in the sunshine, when an tmmi-
grant with covered wagon drew up his
team and gave them a rest and drink.
Howdy! spoke up grandma.

"'Noi Deed we did not we had the
peskiest, meanest nelghbors; we was
glad to get shed of EN-
Eyes, but you'll find plenty more
just like 'em where you're a-goin'.
And then grandma went on knitting.
"A few days later another Immigrant
wagon with its family drew up at the
water trough. And again grandma
asked the usual questions as to where
they were going and where they were
from.
But this time the answer TO the
question of whether they did not hate
to break up old home ties was differ
ent.

BELIEF IN THE FUTURE LIFE.

Harry Lauder tells in the Ameri-
can Magazine of his experience in
France and he says:
81 spent many days in the trenches,
the rest camps, the hospitals, and in
the surrounding towns, and the most
definite impression / carried away
was one concerning the spiritual at
mosphere which surrounds the French
and English soldiers in France.
talked with some of the men for hours
at time about their experiences in
battle, about their thoughts of home,
about their feeling toward the enemy,
but the one thing | came away with,
above all other impressions, was the
conviction that every single one of
these men, no matter what manner Of
lives they had lived before, now pos
sess calm, clear conviction that if
they fall in the thick of the fight,
they will pass into the life beyond.
"That's why we take such chances,
one man told me simply. DO you
think for a moment that if we thought
that life held nothing for us than the
earthly body we possess, we would
| fight with such confidence and Gag
erness? We would not be able to,
because we would be doing every
thing in our power to preserve this
life of ours. But seeing men die as
| have seen them, know better than
to disbelieve in future life. And be-
cause we have no fear of death, ev-
cry one Of US fling ourselves over the
bags and on to the Huns with fierce,
almost savage joy. We are almost
Japanese in our fatalism and because
that spirit is sweeping among our
men we are going to win this war.
We don't believe it possible that men
who go into battle, knowing that they
are fighting for a righteous cause,
and unafraid Of death, can be beaten
back forever. Some day, at some
point, the enemy must weaken, and
then we will sweep over the tops and
nothing will hold us back. We know
it just as surely as we know the sun
will rise tomorrow

True Meaning OF "Boomersno."

Boomerang has beaten all records Of
words turned inside out. The term
does not convey the idea Of retribu-
ton, as the boomerang returns not az
the thrower's peril. but to his further
use. No Australian would make that
blunder. Colonel Miles, the allied ex-
peditlonary forces chief chaplain dur
Ing the war, used the term right when
he declared: We are your boomerang,
flung out by you to conquer CONT
nent and now returning to your feet
for another throw.

A sunshiny husband makes a mer-
ry, beautiful home, worth working in
and for. If the man is breezy,
CHEEKY, considerate and sympathetic,
the wife sings in her heart over .pud-
dings and mending basket, and counts
the hours till he returns at night and
renews her youth in the security she
feels Of his appreciation and admira-
ton.

Success is never obtained in a
country like this without effort. If
you fail once try again. If you fall
down, get up. If it is dark, strike
a light. If you are in the shade move
around; if there is shade on one side
there is sure to be sunshine on the
other. 1t takes longer to skin an ele-
plant than a mouse, but then the
skin is worth something. Never be
content with doing what another has
done-eXcel him.

How great a beauty and blessing it
is to hold the royal gifts of the soul
so that they shall be music to some

all! Some women cling to their

gion with the subtle fragrance of their
goodness.

HOME CIRCLE COL UMN.

There is but one rule of strict NOR
atty that a man can adopt. That
would be to live as pure and perfect
a life as he would have his wife live,
to avoid associations, habits and
language that he would have her
avoid. The old idea of one scale of
morals for the man and another for a
woman is very wrong and until a
young man is ostracised from society
by the same act that would turn the
young woman odt in the cold world
social standing is but a farce.

Spirit of God somehow above all tho
welter of barbaric peoples who had been
subdued to his sword. The German peo-
pie were praying, I thhk. for peace to-
day, and their heads were bowed.
outwardly In Aix-la- -Chapelle there Is
no sign Of a defeated empire or of the
wars tragedy. The shops are full or
beautiful things In porcelain and leather
work and fancy goods, and there are
fine bookshops, with new volumes pup
lished since the war.
In tie Kaiserhof Hotel I had a good
lunch of soup, eggs, steak, Rhine wine
and coffee and paid fifteen marks for 1t,
which was not dear for country long
besieged. Here, as in other towns on
the other side of the frontier, food may
be had II one can pay the price. 1t Is
hard for those who cannot and many go
hungry or half hungry; but I saw no
look of starvation on tho faces of the
people and the children seemed well
nourished for the most part, although I
noticed some of them with faces pinched
and wan.
suppose we shall get used to moving
about among the German people; but
so far It seems so strange that 1t seems
like a fantastic dream, and to sit down
to table surrounded by German men
and women. with a party of German
officers in full uniform in an adjoining
room, as happened to me today, gives
ono a sense of unreality.
For until few weeks ago these men
were people we killed IL we could and
were those who desired our death, and
between us and them there was a bar
rier which no man could pass except as
captive. But today in a German book
shop l bought Andersen's Fairy Tales"

In uniform and German schoolboys, one
of whom produced box OF matches to
light my cigarette, and Charlemagne's
throne was shown me by German
guide, who made no reference to tho
war which had Interrupted his flow Of
English visitors.
It is all astonishing, and ones brain,
Scared by four and a half years Of
war at the front, cannot jump quickly
to this new phase of history, and one
goes about trying to adapt oneself to
this experience.
