MORAL ISSUES
Daily Food

The Bible should be the Chris
tian's daily bread. A child, to
grow IN size and strength, must
have good food and plenty Of it.
So the Christian must feed plen-
tifully upon Gods Word. More
over he must feed with appetite.
The child that finds no pleasure
in three meals a day needs medi-
cine, or exercise, more than food.
So the Christian who does not
find Gods Word sweet to The
taste, should look for the cause
of his distaste. Sermons for ST.
lent Sabbaths.

A Temperance Hymn

O brothers, lift your voices,
Triumphant songs to raise;
Till heaven on high rejoices,
And earth is filled with praise;
Ten thousand hearts are bounding
, With holy hopes and free;
The Gospel trump is sounding,
The trump of Jubilee.
o Christian brothers, glorious,
Shall be the conflicts close;
The cross hath been victorious,
And shall be DER its foes:
Faith is our battle-token;
Our Leader all controls;
Our trophies, fetters broken;

You can always borrow trouble

If you desire to save man,
you must look for the best in him

let him know it. To tell a per-
son he is a child of the devil, or
act as though you so considered
him. IS not the way to induce
him to become a child OF God.

Whata Democratic Vote Means

There has never been a ma.
tional mid.election IN which there
were so many important domes-

interests and welfare of all the
people. ,.:.,:
A vote for Democratic candi-
dates this year will mean that the
voter is voting against:
An extortlonate .profiteers
tariff act which taxes the Ameri-
can people between $3,00O,0OO,-
900 and $4,000,oO0,OO0 aud 1n-

A ret enue act which relieved
the big taxpayers of over a half
sbillion dollars with no CORE.

A proposed Ship Subsidy bill

Aiken Journal and Review.

The arrest of a minister, in
the upper section of the state, for
violation of the national prohibi-
tion act is the latest. The minis.
ter was arrested Sunday night,
October lst, for having in his
possession a quart of corn whis-
key, which was carried in the
same bag with two Bibles. This
arrest took place after q prohibi-
tion Observation-Disclosures
Tribune.
Against that minister, by the
way, who was a simple noun.
taineer, we can point to thou
sands of God fearing, booze hat
ing clergymen who practice daily
in their lives thelessons that they
teach. This parade of the weak
willed unfortunate teacher who
fell does not lessen the fact that
drink is raw curse of the land,
and the holding up to ridicule of
the poor weakllng who tripped
by the wayslde cannot and does
not gid or garnish the booze
bottle, the booze maker or the
bootlegger. Rather, in Our opin-
ion, such exposition only serves
with smarting sting to show
the cruel fangs of the snake. The
mountaineer Baptist preacher
caught with "moonshine" in his
Bible sack IS no sample of the
great army of Christian gentle
men who are fighting the liquor
curse for the salvation of mems
souls. Why search the bin for
the specked apple?

IT IS SAID

He who loves SO far serves
William Ellery Claiming.
No man can lose what he new.
er has.-Izaak Walton.
Nature is q volume of which
God is the author.-Moses Har.
vey.
Matrimony.-the high sea for
which no compass has yet been
inventcd.-Heine.
We love any forms, however
ugly, from which great qualities
shine.-Emerson.
Modesty seldom resides in a
breast that is not enriched with
noble virtues.-Goldsmith.
Mirth is like a flash of light
ming, that breaks through a
gloom of clouds, and glitters for
a moment; cheerfulness keeps up
a kind of daylight in the mind,
and fills it with a steady and per-
petual serenlty.-ALdlson.
Dispatch is the soul of busi-
ness; and nothing contributes
more to dispatch than method.
Lay down a method for every.
thing, and stick to it inviolably,
as far as unexpected incidents
may allow.-Lord Chesterfield.
Memory, like a purse, if it be
over-full that it cannot shut. all
will drop out of il; take heed of
a gluttonous curiosity to feed on
many things, lest the greediness
of the appetite of thy memory
spoil the digestion thereof
Thomas Fuller.

marriage of love is pleasant; a
marriage OF interest. easy; and a
marriage where both meet. hap

My idea of the Christian relig-

and It's vital consequences-an
inspiration and a life-God's life

of every soul which it inhabits;
