What Comfort Is There In the
Knowledge OF the Endless Life?
BY Jas. II. Tate.


might answer in the language
of st. Paul: much every way
We know that this life is very
much limited-limited in every d.
rection and in every conceivable
way. This Is especially true as
regards duration. Life is but "a
span" as "a vapor" like "a shad-
ow." 1T Is appointed once unto
men 10 die" In view OF all this
the faithful Christians consolation
lies in the fact that he knows he Is
moving toward country where this
Limitation Is not known, hence there
is but little uneasiness about death
The sting OF death is not nearly so
nainful Surely onr knowledge and
assurance OF the endless life In the
GOOD world affords us much COM
fort in this respect.
Then again. in this lie we are
subject TO an almost endless list OF
diseases accidents and misfortunes'
We must ever be on the lookout TOT
,hase perils. But look and guard
as Wa may they often overtake u.s.
This fact gives us much concern
vyban some one or more OF these
over present perils get hold OF u.s.
we must suffer the consequences
But heaven is absolutely free
from all these perils with their end
less train OF sorrows, hence beuiah
Land guarantees immunity from all

youth on the other. This Is IN

COMING HOME TO BOOST

The mendacity of Governor Cox in making the charge that huge slush fund was being raised by the Re- publican party is now fully disclosed by that staunch advocate of the Will son covenant and of the Democratic ticket, the New York Times. in an appeal for contributions to the Dem- ocratic fund. The Times laments the fact that the charges of Governor Cox have given wealthy Democrats an ex- cuse for withholding large contribu- tions. Prominent members of that party have been reserved for the grand touch, but now that there has been so much loose talking about donations they profess to fear the publicity certain to follow.
 The Times sees no reason why an appeal for funds should not be made openly in behalf of the Democratic party. Tt is nothing to be ashamed Of,' says that organ of Democracy. Nobody belives that either the Re- publcans or the Democrats are going to make corrupt use of campaign funds this year; that is, that money is to be used for buying votes"
 That statement well expresses the idea which the people have had all along despite the charge made by hot purposed buying the presidency. Few persons, if any, have believed Gov ernOr Coo and, if the truth were known, he has not believed himself His reckless talk about millions may have served a temporary purpose of detracting attention from the issues i'll the campaign, but it also has giv- en the country a fairly accurate idea of the calibre of the man indulging in it.
 If one may judge of the Democratic needs by the urgency of the Times appeal, wealthy beneficiaries of the Wilson administration, such as Der nard Baruch, Charles R. Crane, Hen ry Morgenthau and others, have not come through with their quotas They naturally shrink from publicity and when approached by MT. James w. Gerard, the Democratic treasurer they gently, but firmly, freeze up. It is a development that was not foreseen by the Democratic nominee or his managers.
 Possibly, if Governor Cox could let go of his campaign fund chatter gracefully, he would drop it. He is like the luckless bear hunter who seized his quarry by the tail and called upon the world generally to help him let go. Having begun a campaign of mudsIinging there ap- pears to be no place where he can quit, and so he continues to cap one extravagant and reckless statement with another even wilder. It will occur to many fairminded persons that there is a sort of retributive jus tice in the latest effect of his mali cious disregard of the truth-Ex.
