STAGNATION THE WORST
HERSEY

The most dangerous foe of chris
tianity today is not the Ingersoll and
the Paines, and Jehoakims, men who
openly assault the faith of the Bible.
Everybody knows the animus Of such
men and their influence goes for little
The greatest foes of religion are the
Indifferent, cold-blooded, stolid pro-
fessors. The thermometer of the
church ought to stand 20 to 40 de-
grees higher than it does in most
places. There ought to be more heat
in the pulpit and more caloric in the
pews. In too many cases the ice in
the pews congeals the man in the pull
pit, so that instead of heating the tenn
perature he can only drip, drip, drip,
in cold talk. And even when the par
son brings into the pulpit a red hot
message his half hour sermon can dc
not much more than thaw out the
frigid congregation little around the
edges.

REAL RELIGION JOYFUL.

A soul which can neither ssf1y nor
co." is in desperate state indeed.
Better noisy Halleluiah than spir-
it of critisism for those who thus
shout. When Sunday comes 10y ought
to drip from the baptismal fount, 10y
ought to glow in the sacramento cup
joy ought to MARBLE in the anthem of

RELIGION WITHOUT ENTHUSI
Assn WORTHLESS

1t is high time some one opened the
hampers and set the furnace af1ame.
We have sat under weeping willows
and juniper bushes long enough; let
us begin to wave palm branches. If
holiness is after a while to be in
scribed on the bells of the horses as
the Scripture promises, we care not
how much they prance. The more
speed, the more spring, the more
music. We have apothesized Pru-
dence, and Caution, and Propriety,
and Decorum too long. They are
too often married to Laziness, Sloth,
Incidence and Stupidity, and their
Children are narrow-minded, obstinate
and stolid.
In other words a religion without
any enthusiasm is not worth having.
Who wants wooden christianity or
a dry-as-dust orthodoxy? 1t loses its
power when it loses it's pathos. We
! need to be warned against decorum.
The soul has wings as well as feet,
though with many people their wings
are as yet only pin feathers. Alas
for those who are compelled to sing,
if they sing at ALL
"Look how we grovel here below.
Fond of these earthly toys;
Our souls can neither fly, nor go
To reach eternal joys"

STORIESOF AMERICA AND AMERICANS
Friendships of the -Sidelghts on the Char
acter of Daniel Boone A Well Merited Grant
of Land

and the father of Senator Benton
had been early friends, no doubt in
the state of North Carolina as Sena-
tor Benton came from North Caro-
lima and Daniel Boone came from
the same state. The quotation also
shows that the Boone family was in
touch with men of affairs not only
in North Carloina and Kentucky but
also in the state of Missouri and it
is an interesting sidelight on the all
too meager details which we have OF
the wonderful Daniel Boone.
January Is, 1910, Daniel Boone
presented a petition to congress while
an inhabitant of the territory OF
Louisiana, for the grant OF portion
Of land there. He refers to his long
life in exploring "the wilds of North
America" and that his possible ex-
cess for discovery had not been
advanta ageous in a personal way. he
then says he sis the more induced to
this request, as the favorite pittance
of soil to which he conceived he had
acquired a title, under the Spanish
government has been wrested from
him by a construction of existing
laws" In the senate January IL,
1910, Mr.. Meigs, from the committee
to whom the petition was referred
reported the same without amend
ment, the report stating among other
things that the petitioner was old
and infirm and though dependent on
agriculture, ''by adverse and i'm
propitious circumstances, possesses
not one acre of that immeasurable
territory which he SO well defended. .
He received a grant of $50 acres.
