THE ANCIENT BILLY SUNDAY

In the United States in 1850 CAPT
talists owned 371a 90 of the nations
wealth. In 1870 they owned $50.
Now $50 of the people own $3.50 of
the country's wealth.
Explain this as you may, the fact
is of stratling moment.
1t is not crime to be rich, but 1T
is crime to use riches as many peo-
pie do.
1t is not disgrace to be poor, but
it is mighty inconvenient always.
The prophet Amos was the Billy
Sunday of ancient times, and when he
spoke against the sins Of his times he
used language that the common peo-
pie understood. 1t was red hot crit
icism. No fashionable congregation
would stand for it these days. Some
of his descriptions took the skin off,
cut to the quick, and undoubtedly
made good many enemies for Amos.
He called the fashionable women
drunken cows. He charged them with
the grossest immortality. He said
they were nation of grafters and
bride takers. He showed up their
treatment of the poor, and how they
built palaces using their ill-gotten
gains for the purpose, and consider
ing human life of so little account
that "they sold the righteous for sill
yer and the needy for pair of
Shoes" He denounced their drunk
enness, their eXtravagant banquets,
their luxurious furniture, their volup-
tuous, rag-time music. He declared
that the whole nation was morally
rotten.

NEW VTAMME
TABLETS MADE
FROM YEAST
CONTAIN PROPER DOSE OF BOTH
WATER AND FAT SOLUBLE
NITAMINES.
THE LATEST IMPROVED WAY,
EASY TO TANEy RESULTS QUICK

Local druggists are recommending
Phos-Pho Vitanine tablets to those
taking yeast for health. The tablets
contain a proper dose of Vitamines In
highly concentrated form, and, OF
course, are easy to take and economi-
cal.
Yeast is very rich in Vitamine, and
many people have been eating It raw.
Now you can get a proper dose in tab
let's made expressly for medicinal pur-
poses. The appetite, digestion, com
plexion. strength, and whole system
show marked Improvement when the
system is under-nourished and thin
people report an increase In weight al
most invariably at the end OF three or
four weeks use Of the tablets. In fact,
Vitamine is simply wonderful as a
tonic, and being a tonic food of great
power, II may wisely be used by
ever APne when not In perfect health.
DoHors do not recommend these
tablets for dangerous ills and dis
ease, and Vitamine, of course. will not
cure everything. but many people
heretofore In poor health praise the
Phos-Pho Vitamine Tablets sky-high
for the way II built, strengthened
and toned up their systems, increased
their weight cleared their complex

BERLIN, December 16.-Carl Lang,
not Theodor Lang. will be Gemany's
charge d'afraires at Washington. Ap-
proval by the United States govern
ment of his appointment to the WASH
ington post was delivered to the for
eign office here yesterday morning.
Herr Lang will start for the United
States at the end Of the present week.
The new charge has been in the
German consular service at Montreal,
Chicago and st. Louis and also in
Russia. Recently he has been attach
ed to the passport section OF the Ger.
man embassy in Paris.
The government has not given ac-
tive consideration to the question of
the appointment of an ambassador to
the United States, partly because it is
awaiting the initiative Of the Ameri-
can government and also partly ow-
ing to the dearth of available candi-
dates.
Herr Lang is about fifty years of
age and speaks English nuently. He
had made a favorable impression in
American Official quarters in Berlin.
After he is released as charge daft
faires at Washington Herr Lang will
assume the post of German consul at
New York.
A dispatch from Berlin last We'd
nesday erroneously announced that
Theodor Lang would be given the
post of charge d'affaires at Washing
ton. A previous dispatch had said
Theodor Lang had been named as
