The trouble with many move

is that the readiustment itself is

souls OF men. The mastery of
material wealth.. it's complete
subordination TO the welfare of

servant of mems spirits, is the
true object TO be sought. And
this object can be attained only
through co-operation,-a co-opera-
ton based on the rfinciple OF
Jesus. Seek We first the kingdom
of God, and his righteousness;
and all these things"-food, raj

The teachings OF Jesus hold
the solution Of the problems that
to-day disturb us, and the church
is custodian and exponent OF
those teachings. It's responsible
lily is tremendous. II 1t fails
to lead men now, 1t will be dere-
lict in great duty. There are
wrong and injustice and misun-
derstanding on both sides of the
pending struggle. The profiteer-
ing spirit is in the camp of labor
as truly as in the camp OF capt.
tai. Contracts are made but to
be broken. Confidence does not
exist. No happy or righteous
solution can be evolved from
such conditions as these. Only
the truth can make free, and the
church must preach the truth
fearlessly and apply it without
favor. When the kingdom OF
heaven comes among men, II will,
come with the trumpet blast OF
truth and the banners Of love.

New York World: The Ponce de
Icons of medical science are still
seeking the fountain of perpetual
youth. A Paris doctor thinks he has
found 1t in the simple process of
grating new interstitial glands on
old bodies. A decreipt he-goat thus
treated became young and vigorous
again" A boy of fourteen, an idiot,
was provided with sound thyroid
gland from monkey and was found
fit for army service three years later.
Why, then, may not men, as they
grow old, go to the family physician
to be fitted out with a new set Of
glands and take on new lease OF
vigor?
1t is an alluring theory. Given
plenty of monkeys to supply the de-
mand for glands, the human race may
look for physical immortality on
earth. But what has become OF all
the recipessof other years for robust
longevity? Are there any centena-
rians to-day who owe their great age
to DR.. Brown-Sequard's elixir of life?

that 25-pound bags of the best granu-
lated sugar could be bought for

would be willing to pay that sum If
the sugar were to be had. In add.

Chicago Post: The Chicago
Church Federation, through its
commission on the church and
industry. has issued call to the
preachers CT the city urging
them to observe Labor day by
discussing from their pulpits on
the preceding Sunday the critical
industrial situation now con-
fronting America. The fedora
tons suggestion should be heed
ed. If the church has no message
for such days as these, then ii
may as we'll close its doors.
Never was there greater need for
honest and courageous preach
ing than now-honest in an in
telligent facing of the problems
OF the time, courageous in the
application of the teaching of
Jesus TO their solution
The church stands on common
ground. 1t holds, by virtue OF
its faith. a mediating position be-
tween classes. If it is true to It's
great Leader. it has enc gospel
for rich and poor. for employer
and employee, for those who own
the tools and those who work
with them. IL it understands the
message committed to it, then 1t
knows that its supreme task is
to awaken the spiritual con-
seriousness, the sense OF divine
kinship in the individual. and to
work for a social order in which
spiritual values win be supreme.
That is precisely why the
church cannot ignore economic
and Industrial problems. The
emancipation of the human spirit
to realize it's possibilities de-
ponds upon a society so organic
ed that men will no longer be the
slaves OF material conditions.
"Ye cannot serve God and mann
mon"-but today the service OF
mammoon is forced upon men;
upon the poor in order TO escape
from poverty; upon the rich in
order to preserve the surplus

Few foreigners are able to shake
off entirely their accent. All the
more remarkable. therefore, was the
case of Carl Shurtz. This famous
naturalized American patriot was
able to throw off his foreign accent
so completely that when he was
speaking in the United States SEN

native tongue was not English.

IN THE WAY OF MANDATES.

Press dispatches ON the report OF the Har-
bord mission to Armenia and the near east OF
Asia forecast division of opinion by its mem
bers as to the advsability of this nations ac-
ceptance of mandate either for Armenia alone
or for Turkey. 1t is stated that while the
military opinion is against the acceptance
some civilian members regard the acceptance
as national duty; all apparently concur
III the opinion that a mandate viii be
productive of evil rather than good if this ma
ton were not given a free hand for term OF
years in which to educate the people supervised
IL industrial and political self-dependence.
The military men unquestionably are best
judges of what mandate would demand of our
armed forces and it seems reasonable to believe
that the demand would be larger than these Of
fcers think this people would be willing to au-
thorize filed. Again there is the question of
acquiesence by other powers in the free hand
for our mandate which is foreseen as necessary
to It's success. Great Britain, France, Italy and
Greece have already spheres of influence in
Asiatic Turkey. Armenia is not populous
enough nor strongly homogeneous enough to
stand alone among her neighbors without
strong support. No one can we'll foresee what
problems of international significance would be
met by mandate over these unsettled peoples
There will be wide interest in the full report of
the Harbord mission when it is made public for
over the question of manufactures there is likely
tc be wide divergence of opinion by our people

COMFORT AND STYLE.

1t remained for woman, a thoughtful wom-
al, to make the final and conclusive contribu-
ton to a question long and anxiously discussed.
Speaking of her sex, she admits that women
prefer fashion to comfort and will not hesitate
to incommode themselves, imperil their health
and permanently cripple their feet in order to
be in style
This confession ends the argument, exhausts
the subject. This is one of the things that are
SO and it is idle to quarrel with them. Women
are free moral agents-no one gainsays that to-
day-and as such fall naturally into the line of
least resistance. This in the matter Of dress is
the groove decreed by fashion. 1t may at
times be painful to them but is not nearly so
painful as effort to go the other way. We may
therefore waste no sympathy on the woman
whose shoes are evidently source of agony to
her, remembering that she would suffer more
poignant mental distress in ow-heeled broad
soled shoes the size of her foot. Feeling as she
does, she makes wise choice between physical
discomfort and mental pain. The one is transi-
tory; time cures it and it passes forever from
the mind Who suffers from throbbing tooth
or toes Of yesteryear7 One may know as a mat
ter Of recollection that once one did suffer. but
the actual twinges are gone beyond recall. Not

They are 1nforgettable. Time does not dull
them, and the modification sensitive woman
might have felt in having been dowdily gowned
on some memorable occasion year ago may
be as vivid as then.
We are too prone to jump to hasty judgments
in such matters and to assume that ways are ir-
rational in a woman because they might be in a
man. Their natures are not the same Man
usually sacrifices fashion to comfort. Realizing
this we should be more considerate than all Of
us usually are and cheerfully permit any woman

Why the evening preceding All SAINTS day
