tragic fact is that many people use
the first two words and leave out the
last two. They say I can md then

on self and not on Christ, and they
break their backs and their hearts in
impossible tasks. If only we knew
IT.. and if only W. would practice 1t,
we should find that the last two words
provide the secret of the first two. 1t

Plague Deadly IN Java.

In Java, which has a population a
third as big as ours, bubonic plague
Is so commo, that it kills half of the
children before they are five years old.
The %Jayanese take this as q matter of
course, reports William Ferguson,
globe trotter. He found the people of
Java with the vlewpoin. that If the
plague didn't kill half OF the children
the island shortly would be unable to
sustain the inhabitants despite its fer
tillty.
Nature is cynical in its harshness.
She deals only in cause and effect, ac-
ton and reaction. and the thing we
call emotion Is alien to her plans.
Civilization is merely a banding to-
gether for mutual protection against
harsh nature. Most of US have lost
sight of this original purpose.
