The fact that banks throughout the

reason for this, and that is that some

win out over slipshod or poorly

WHY JOHN WAS NOT SMOKING
Probably the Widest Idea OF HE
c!ubmates Would Have Been
Wide of the Mark.

All the men at the club have been
watching Johnnie Edwards, the invet.
crate smoker, for the last week, and
there's been much surmising and con-
occurring, but Johnnie wouldn't give
himself away. 1t seems that Johnnie
has held the prize for the champion
smoker In the club for ten years.
In the last week Johnnie has been
seen strOlling around the rooms with
detected, lost appearance and be-
tween his lips always the inevitable
cigarette. But it was never lighted.
Nobody liked to ask him questions and
he didn't volunteer any explanation, so
1t wasn't explained until Jimmie Van
Week overheard him say on the tele-
phone:
mo. you have got to stick to your
word now. / sWore of If you would,
and goodness knows I want one bad
enough, but Doe says you've gotta
leave 'em alone for a while. Now be
good little mother and remember your

MEANING OF sELF-MAsTERY
Evil Principles Existing In
Each Mans Soul.


Temperance is, imagine, q kind
OF order and mastery as men say,
over certain pleasures and desires.
Thus we plainly hear people talking Of
q mans being master of himself in
some sense or other; and other similar
expressions are used In which. we may
trace a print Of the thing. But is
aot the expression master Of him
self" ridiculous onef For the man
who Is master Of himself will also,
presume. be the slave Of himself and
the slave will be the master. For the
subject Of these phrases Is the same
person.
Well It appears to me that the
meaning Of the expression Is, that in
the man himself, that is. In his soul,
there resides a good principle and a
bad. and when the naturally good
principle Is master Of the bad. this
state Of things Is described by the
term master Of himself" certainly
1t is a term Of praise-but when, in
consequence Of evil training, or the
influence Of associates, the smaller
force Of the good principle is over
powered by the superior numbers of
the bad, the person 80 situated Is de-
scribed in terms Of reproach and con.
demnation, as a slave Of self, and a
dissOlute person.-Plato.
