Editor World:--Permt mo to congratulate
you on the spirit OF the little editorial sermon in
The World August 4th under the caption OF
Thoughts to Think About"
am not writing this for the purpose OF get
ting into print, but that, IL possible in my small
way might help to impress upon the minds Of
people this great doctrine of mind culture in
which believe so much and would like to add
10 the second paragraph of the article referred
to- Health, happines and prosperity instead of
poverty and despair. OF SOUL mind and body,
groveling In the dark as worms OF the dust.
mented ella Wheeler Wilcox expressed In the
following llnes
Thoughts are THINGS with airy wings
Swifter than carrier doves.
They work by the law OF the universe:
Each thing must produce It's kind
Ana they speed Ger the track to bring us
back,
Whatever goes out from the mind"
PAU, the great Apostle, recognized this psy-
chology in all his writing we read In such
statements as these; BE not contormed to this
world but be we transformed by the renewing of
your mind that ye may prove what is that good
ana acceptable, and perfect will OF God" And
again. referring to promises God had made TO
the people OF this world and also to the I'm iuri-
Gus habits of people which he cassed as idols he
SAID Having therefore these promises dearly
beloved let us cleanse ourselves of all filthiness
or the flesh and mind perfectiug holiness in love
TO Cod Love is the great theme.
There is nothing that will illumine the soul
mind and body ms will love; love to God first III
we cannot love God with all our soul mind and
being, | don't believe we can love anything in
the true sense OF love
l would like to your article printed In
large type and posted in every church and school
and business place in the country

PROHIBITION AND REACTION.

The inability OF men to Judge tho temper OF
public opinion was never better illustrated than
In the Missouri primary. In both republican

who oppose tho league covenant sought TO make
America an isolated nation unwilling TO render

Now on the ground OF their own choosing

Thursday with anything that has been said by
the international advocates.
Here in America we do not need any

THIRD PARTY DIFFICULTIES.

Frankly, we are disappointed with the Farm

prove tho hell box" OF politics Let us hasten
TO advise the unsophstioated that the hell box
Is that receptacle In print shop wherein all

term at ell,
when a type Is proven TO be out OF line
with its fellows or Is battered dented, too
high or too low, or freakish in any respect, 1t
Is thrown into the hell box" and from there
goes into the melting pot to be reoast.
With this parenthetlo explanation the APP
propriateness Of our simIle can be fully appre-
clated. For It applies beautifully Tho third
party was expected to serve as hell box" for
all the politicians, alleged and otherwise. Had
1t served It's purpose all would have been well
For eventually all OF those who dabble In poll
ties and are yet unable to get In line with their
fellows In other organizations; those that are
would have found their way into the he'll box
whether they were ever cast again did not
concern us deeply, our interest being in getting
rid of them.
Now It seems the hell box" has been tipped
over and the types scattering back into the

his name is, IL u bum printer, else he would

A LOVE SONG.

oh. | can slave for the yellow gold
And battle for earthly fame
| can go to the end OF a purpose bold.
It's splendid reward TO claim;
Some pleasures there are which depend on
me,
But the smile that hunger each day to see
Must be fashioned, my dear, by you.
l can stand alone at my task each day
And buy what the flesh may need
But ia soon grow lonely and old and gray
In serving Il selfish creed;
For the spirit needs more than a strangers
cheer
or glimpse of sky OF blue.
And this world TO me would be cold and
drear
II It weren't for the love OF you.
oh, nothing that have the skill 10 do
Can comfort this heart OF mine
For myself ia never a goal pursue
or follow purpose fine.
And II all the wealth of the world l had
with its fleeing glory, too,
I'd still be a lonely old man and sad
IL l couldn't come home to you,
couldn't be happy without you dear,
Nor strong In the time OF test
1t is only because feel you're near
That struggle TO do my best;
| For after the cares and the hours OF strife
Are closed. and the day is through,
| / must stll depend for the joy OF life
on the smile which / get from you.
