Owing to the prevalence of Typhoid Fever in many parts of thc Dominion of Canada, the attention of the general public is called to the protection afforded to this disease liy the Inoculation ol Typhoid Vaccine. The vaccine may lie injected by a doctor, or in lbc case of a doctor not heing at hand, a trained nurse could carry oul the procedure. The lirst injection of vaccine, am.uniting lo n few drops of a sterile liquid introduced under the skin, is followed in ten days' time hy a larger injection, and for greater security n third may be given ten days after the second. A few hours after lhe lirsl injection, a little headache and slight malaise may he experienced, wiih tondorness about the point of Inoculation, This is seldom sullicient to cause a man to slop his work, as by the next mom- | iug be usually fcclsos well as usual, After lbc second and (bird inject ions no reaction is produced, ihe ponton seldom experiencing nny discomfort whatever, ll is signilicnnt lhal many large employers of Inlxir have gone int.. lliis subject deeply, with gratifying results, statistics having shown that of those proporly Inoculated practically none Imve taken typhoid within a year, and protool* lion is prol.alily alTnnlcil for n much longer period. This method should appeal to friendly societies aud labour unions who pay benefits to Iheir sick members.

On Thursday morning alxiut two o'clock three men blew up the safe in the general store of Mr. Pair, Immigration olliccrat Cloverdnle.

Thc wax Is not put upon the paper as In ordinary seals, but is In the shape of a disc with an Impression on each side. This is kept In a tin or plated case, and attached to the dieum. ir by a tag embedded in wax. Consequently the seal itself is not a signet, but consists of two heavy silver plates in one of which is cut the impression of the front of the device, in the other tha* for the back.

Quick steps are Indicative of energy and agitation. Tiptoe walking symbolizes surprise, curiosity, discretion, or mystery. Turnlng-ln toes are often found with preoccupied, absent-minded persons. The miser's walk Is represented as stooping nnd nolseleaB. with short, nervous, anxious steps. Slow steps, long or short, suggest a gentle or reflective stnte of mind. When a revengeful purpose Is hidden under a feigned smile Ihe step will be slinking nnd noiseless. The proud step Is slow nnd measured, the toes are crnsplcuously turned out. the legs straightened. Where Ihe direction of the step wavers nnd follows every changing Impulse of the mind. It Inevitably betrays uncertainty, hesitation nnd Indecision. THE MUSEUM LECTURER It la reported In Nature that the Installation of an ulMclal guide tn tlio collections ot the llritish Museum has been such n success that the Natural IHstur Museum at South Kensington has added a similar functionary to Ita staff. He will make two trips a day through thc Museum, each ono lasting an hour, and presumably Involving a visit to and brief explanation of the must Interesting and Instructive habits. To say thut this plan will double tlle educational value of the Museum Is to state the case for it very mildly. Kor many of the visitors, probably tho vast majority of them, the collections ln such museums 11n1lesrrlb.nl, mean nothing. The same thing Is truo to a lesser degree In zoological gardens, and even art museums. The pn.vision of a lecturer, sufficiently (and obviously) scientific or artistic, so that the tipping problem was eliminated, would add enormously to the value of every public museum. There seems no way In which the amount of money necessary tt. secure the services of a really competent man for this position could be spent to better advantage. __ - Jiti...- HOW'S THIS?

Yet how very little attention the average Individual pays to the injunction. Don't Worry. Worry il ls that depresses; worry lt ts that makes the lunatic, worry- it Is thut Induces suicide. Yet there are folk in the world who seem lo positively glory In their worries, and who are never tired of boasting of them. No doubt It Is easier for the onlooker to say don't worry, than it is for the one thus admonished to carry out the order. Yet when all Is said and done, why- worry ? Whal Is there to gain through worrying. Has anyone ever been a whit the easier, happier or healthier through worrying. Assuredly not! Worry has never contributed one single lota of happiness or of good cheer- Therefore refuse to worry or be worried. If one of life's problems comes along and has to be faced, why, face it; but put the best face upon It and In any case, do not worry.

CHERRY GARDEN Londoners, In cherry time, used formerly to flock to Bermandsey to regale themselves with fruit at the famour Cherry Garden.

Previous to thnt the railways enforced a rule of their own making, thut all grain for shipment In hulk musl be loaded through nn elevator If such existed at the country shipping point. Now. however. the railways must furnish cunt under cirtain equitable regulations to all farmH at all shipping points. Then facilities for farmers shipping their grain are naturally morn plentiful In Menltnba than In Saskatchewan and Alberta, and the eatenslve use of them by the Manitoba farmers, accounts largely for the failure of Government elevators In Manitoba. As railway development -progresses competition between the railways to secure freight Increases, and the facilltius loi capturing the freight arising adjacent to the railways are Increased and In this way the time cannot be far distant when the western provinces will have na plentiful supply of shipping facilities as Manitoba. We have always advocated the loading platform and Dominion Government terminal elevators. The use of these two together would eliminate many If not most of tne reasonable complsints in connection with the farmer shipping and disposing of his gram. We would therefore Impress on the farmer the desirability of getting the In bit of using the loading platform to the fullest extent possible In direct loading and lmlepcnd-*nt shipping.

EDITORIAL COMMENT According to the report of the iluK tux collector there are a largo number of dogs whose owners hnve cast them adrift. Honest people pay this tax, The Council should trace every, dog hi its owner or chase it to the bone yard. The city in full nl'yapping pups that are neither ornamental, companionable or useful except to make n row at nights or occupy space on the sidewalks dining the dny. Collect the dog tax or banish tlic dogs. I One of the desirable things among men is the purity of expression. When one has a thought to utter he should be able to do so without punctuating it with profanity. Nothing is added to the thought by such digressions. Not only is the speaker enveloped in a fog of blasphemy but he pnlutes the very atmosphere for better mon, and even women and children nre not immune from his accursed breath. Out of the abundance of the heart the month speitketh. Whal citizen is there ill Chilliwaek who dues not feel some degree of self pride in its welfare? That cannot call to mind some meritorious advantage which cauld be spoken »f to advantage when ever an opportunity is afforded them? Who is tliere among our people who bus not the patriotism in his views tn stand luridly up iti defence of and contradict any statement made that he knew would prove injurious to our town, and people? Who does nol wish to have it said of thom when they are gone that the town nml community In which they lived has been made some better by them having lived in it? If any tax payers have doubts as to the necessity of a new High School for Chilliwaek a visit to tlie building tit present doing service, would completely extinguish that doubt. Besides its unsuitabilily for the purpose the beginning of the fall term linds the students packed into it like sardines in a box. In fact one class cannot find seating accomodation. In nn age is the value of education to humanity recognized to a greater degree than at the present time, and every community and individual, with a little bit of knowledge of the conditions which meet thc young of lo-diy, and a spark of unselfishness, wants tlie best educa tional facilities provided, consistent with the needs and means of the community. "Debt" some one has said is con eentratcd essence of misery, yes, the double distilled essence of misery, and why should it lie so, money is plentiful, but there seems lo be a desire on the part of a number of the buying public to get goods with out paying for them when they pur chase them, and in nine classes out of ten, these same people as soon as they arc asked for the money will leave the merchant and take their cash and spend it some place else. Now this is the double distilled essence of meaness. Mnny a good man lias to close his doors because these people act so, for lie cannot get his money in to meet liis obligations. The greatest favor that could be done for a purchasing public would be for every merchant to do a strictly cosh Inisiness. Every thrifty housewife abhors debt und she will not buy anything she cannot pay for, these arc tlie people who have their bank nccounts and are prospering, such people's trade is appreciated and get tlic preference in all things,liesiiles,they are assisting the merchant in such a way that he is able to make bis discount and pay spot cash for his goods. Now take the debt monger, he or she never has anything, they spend their money on some trival thing which is of uo benefit to them, they arc at every excursion, to every amusement that comes along, and then they wonder why Ibey cannot pay their dobts, Do you know the reason, its lieeause you are not honest. What busincs have you to take the money for your amusement (hat ought to go to pay your grocery or dry goods hill. Mr. Junes or Mr. Murphy is simply pay- ing for your style or amusement. THE CITY COUNCIL Considerable business and over $10,000 ill accounts were dealt with by the city aldermen in a regular meeting held at the city hull on Monday evening, nt whicli all the members were present. The payment of the cost of street sprinkling was up for decision. Half the eost will be paid out of general revenue and tlie other half by owners of property benefited on the basis of aasessment on improvements at half value. A considerable delegation of owners of property in the vicinity of Cheam avenue was present to ask fur drainage in conjunction with the scheme outlined for carrying If the surface water from the South Eastern section of the city. II. C. E. ll. property is also affected and City Engineer Henderson was asked to prepare plans and estimates For a scheme to meet the demands uf the ease, the Mayor, Aid. Gorvan and McGillivroy boing • appointed to confer with thc II. C. 10. It., and obtain if possible their co-operation. O, L. Marston wrote suggesting that the city license law be amend- eli fixing the yearly automobile ii'onso fee at 8'20 por car instead of 80O. The Aldermen acquiosopd in lhe matter and lhe lly-lnw will be amended, The Presbyterian Stili-ilivisinii l>litii was again presented and when all the necessary names are signed, the Mayor and Clerk were authorized to sign the plan. Chief of Police,!. W. Derby made application for two stop watches to lie used in checking up the speed of automobiles on city streels. Referred to Police Commission. With reference to (he recent visit of A. Puives or the B. 0. E. R. to the city, the Mayor reported, that the Company proposed erecting a store for the display of eleetriu fixtures near Cheam ave. and would place an arc light in that vicinity. The Company was also agreeable to the construction of a cement walk in front of their property on the west side of Young street, to a |Kiint where the track loop protrudes over the property line just south of the station. This program was considered satisfactory. Mr. Purves asked (hut Hope street at the freight sheds be improved. The light and power department of the B. C. B. R. does not seem to be in any hurry to remove the poles from the sidewalk on tbe south side of Gore avenue, and the completion of the sidewalk there is lieing delayed. On motion the Company was given until Aug. ill to have the ikries removed. The Mayor then stilted the post tion of tlic waterworks deal. As is generally known the City Cotinci was advised that the plan of pur chase as submitted to tlic citizens some two months ago, wuuld not affect the city's credit beyond thc amount of the By-law 8100,000. lt now transpires tliat the legal fraternity agree that the loan to lie secured by a mortgage on the system will also stand against the credit of tlie city, ln addition to this thc council is advised that a By-law authorising the total expenditure ami fixing the water rates, etc., must bo submitted. This latter letpiircmcnt proves a puzzle to the lay mind. The Mayor advised the submitting of a By-law Tor 8200,000 for the purchase of the system to lie voted on with llie other By-law. The Council has tlie power to complete the deal on llie present basis but Mayor stated it would be more costly witli no advantages to be derived. After some discussion the subject was given over to the Finance Committee to report on at a special meeting of tho Council to lie held on Thursday evening. The procuring of a city ting pound to accommodate the numerous ownerless tlogs for the lawful period of lime, Iwfon lieing given a puss tt dngdoni, was a subject of discussion **************<•*****************<•******************** * * * * * i * * ♦ i * * Read the nils, in the Press to-day THE MERCHANTS BANK Established OF CANADA im Paid up Capital and Reserve $11,400,000 | We give special attention to Savings Accounts.

EDITORIAL COMMENT According to the rep„rt of the dug tax collector tliere are a large number of dogs whose owners have cast them adrift. Honest people pay this tux. The Council should trace every dog Ui its owner or chase it. to the bone yard. The city is full of yapping pups that are neither ornamental, companionable or useful except to make a row at nights or occupy space on the sidewalks dining the day, Collect the dog tax or banish the dogs. One of the desirable tilings among men is the purity of expression. When one has a thought to utter he should be able to do so without punctuating it with profanity, Nothing is added to the thought by such digressions. Not only is the speaker enveloped in it fog of blasphemy but Im polutes the very atmosphere for better men, and even women and children are not immune front his accursed breath. Out of the abundance of the heart the mouth Bpcaketh, What citizen is there iu Chilliwaek who dues not feel BOmo degree, of self pride in its welfare? That cannot call to mind some meritorious advantage which cauld be spoken of to advantage when ever an opportunity is afforded them? Who is there among our people who has not the patriotism in liis views to stand Imlilly up in defence of and contradict, any statement made that he knew would prove injurious to our town, and people? Who does not wish to have it saitl of them when they arc gone that the town and community in which they lived has been made some better by them having lived in it? If any tax payers have doubts as to the necessity of a new High School for Chilliwack a visit to the building at present doing service, would completely extinguish thai doubt, Besides its immutability for lhe purpose the beginning of thc fall term finds the students packed into it like sardines in u box. ln fact one class cannot find seating accomodation. In no age is the value of education to humanity recognized to si greater degree than at the present time, and every community and individual, with a little bit of knowledge of the conditions which meet the young of to-day, antl a spark of unselfishness, wants the best cduca tional facilities provided, consistent with tlie needs and means of tlie community. "Debt" some one has said is con centrnted essence of misery, yes, the double distilled essence of misery, antl why should it be so, money is plentiful, but there seems to lie a desire on thc part of a numlier of the buying public to get goods will. out paying for them when they purchase them, and in nine classes out of ten, these same people ns soon as they are asked for the money will leave tlic merchant and take their cash and spend it some place else. Now this is the double distilled essence of menness. Mnny a good mnn has to close his doors because these people aet so, for he cannot get his money in to meet his obligations. The greatest favor that could be done for a purchasing public would be for every merchant In tlo a strictly cash business. Every thrifty housewife abhors debt and she will not buy anything she cannot pay for, these arc the people who have their bank accounts and are prospering, such people's trade is appreciated and get tlie preference in all things,besides,they ure assisting thc merchant in such a way tliat he is able to make his discount antl pay spot cash for his goods. Now take the debt monger, ho or she never has anything, tliey spend their money on some trival thing whieh is of no benefit to them, they are at everv excursion, to every amusement that comes along, and then they wonder why they cannot pay tbeir debts. Do you know the reason, its because ynu are not honest. What busincs have you to take the money for your iiiuuse- ineiit that ought to go t.i pay your grocery or dry guilds bill. Mr. Jones or Mr. Murphy is simply pay- inn for your style or amusement. THE CITY COUNCIL Considerable business and over $10,000 in accounts were dealt with by the city aldermen in a regular meeting held at the city hall on Monday evening, at which all the members were present. The payment of the cost of street sprinkling was up for decision. Half the cost will he paid out of general revenue and the other half by owners nf property benefited on tho basis of assessment on improvements at half value. A considerable delegation of owners of property iu the vicinity of Cheam avenue was present to ask for drainage in conjunction with the scheme outlined for carrying off the surface water from the South Eastern section of the city. 11. 0. E. II. properly is also ullecled and City Engineer Henderson was asked to prepare plans and estimates for a scheme to meet the demands of tha case, the Mayor, Aid. Gorvan nd Mcdillivray being appointed to confer with the II. ('. E. li., nnd obtain if possible tholr co-operation, 0. L. Marston wrote suggesting that the city license law bo amend- eb fixing the yearly automobile icense fee at 820 per car instead nf 8o0. The Aldermen acquiesced in the matter and lha lly-lnw will be amended. The Presbyterian Sub-division |il,in was again presented and when all the necessary names arc signed, the Mayor ami Clerk were authorized to sign the plan. Chief of Police J. W. Derby made application for two slop watches to be used in checking up the speed of automobiles on city slreels. Referred to Police Commission, With reference to the recent visit of A. Purves of the B. C. E. R. to the city, the Mayor reported, thai the Company proposed erecting a store for the display of electric fixtures near Cheam ave. and would place an arc light in that vicinity. Tlie Company wits also agreeable to the construction of a cement walk in front of their property on the west side of Young street, to a |>oiiit where tlie track loop protrudes over thc property line just south of the station. This program was considered satisfactory. Mr. Purves asked that Hope street at tlie freight sheds be improved. The light aud power department of the B. O. E. R. does not seem to be in any hurry to remove the poles from the sidewalk on the south side of Gore avenue, and the completion of the sidewalk there is lieing delayed. On motion the Company was given until Aug. Ill to have the poles removed. The Mayor then stated tlie position of tlie waterworks deal. As is generally known the City Council was advised that the plan of purchase as submitted to the citizens some two months ago, would not affect the city's credit beyond thc amount of the By-law 9100,000. lt now transpires tliat the legal fraternity agree tliat the loan to lie secured by a mortgage on the system will also stand against the credit of the city. In addition to this the council is advised that a By-law authorizing the total expenditure and fixing the wuter rates, etc., must bo submitted. This latter requirement proves a puzzle to the lay mind The Mayor advised the submitting of a By-law for 8200,000 for the purchase of the system to lie voted on with tlie other By-law. The Council lias the power to complete the deal on the presenl basis but Mayor stilted it would lie more costly with no advantages to Ihi derived. After some discussion lhe subject was given over to the Finance Coin mittee to report on nt u special meeting of the Council to be held on Thursday evening. The procuring of aoltydog ixiund to accommodato the numerous own erless dogs for the lawful period of lime, before lieing given a pass t.i dogdoin, was a subject of discussion, ****a+a.*t**tt****iii++*+iiia.**i+t,*ti,*+4,4,*t*mfma, * * * * * i * * * t * * Reati the ads. in the Press to-day THE MERCHANTS BANK Established OF CANADA 18C4 Paid op Capital and Reserve $11,400,000 We givo special attention to Savings Accounts.

The aggregate national debt of the world is 8;!8,'212,01'2,0OO and the little principality of Ruess, in Germany, with an area of 160 miles, is the only stnte in the world without debt, according lo statistics published. France, the richest country in thc world, also marches at tlie head of the debt burdened nations with a total of «6,26O,O23,00O; Thc German Empire comes next with 86,108,011,000. The per capita debt of France, however, is 811! I and that of Germany is only 878. Russia's debt is »4,550,240,80Q; Britain's 8o,7'2"i,01(),000, and that of the United States is given as 82,405,- 012,000. Austria's debt is but little more than 81,IKK),000,(XK). Both preacher and priest should remember that the State cares nothing whatever about the religious rites antl forms of marriage. As a mutter of convenience the clergy have lieen delegated here in Canada to marry iicople who have decided to enter into a contract to set up a new family. The clergy shnuhl remember, however, that the service used nmy be long or short. There muy be no prayers or they may lie hours long.

Seal Is made. The wax is not put upon the paper os in ordinary seals, but la in the shape of a disc with an ImpresBlon on each side. This la kept In a tin or plated ease, and attached to the daoum-nt by a tag embedded In wax. Consequently the seal itself is not a signet, but consists of two heavy silver plates In one of which is cut the impression of the front, of the device. In the other that for the back. The present plates were made at a cost of C700. When a seal is required a large chunk of wax Is first softened In hot water, then cooled In cold, after which it is placed between the two plates and pressed, emerging In the shape above mentioned.

In argument rely more on musculnrlty than on Intellectual power rest the feet flatly and firmly on the ground, walk heav- llv nnd slowly, and stand with legs firmly plnnled and fur npart. Quick s-eps nre Indicative of energy and agitation. Tiptoe walking symbolises surprise, curiosity, discretion, or mystery. Turnlng-ln toes nre often found with preoccupied, absent-minded persons. The miser's walk Is represented as Btooplng nnd noiseless with short, nervous, anxious stepa. Slow Bteps. long or ahnrt. suggcat n gentle or reflective atate of mind. When a revengeful purpose la hidden under n feigned smile lhe step will be Blinking and nnlaeleas. The proud step Is slow nnd measured, the toes are c. nsplcuouslv turned out. the tegs Btrntghteneil. Where the direction of Ihe stop wavers and follows every changing Impulse nf the mind, It Inevitably betrays uncertnlnty. hes- itatlon nnd Indeclalon. THE MUSEUM LECTURER It Is reported ln Nature that tha Installation nf an official guide to tbo ciilleiiiiins of the British .Museum has been such u success that the Na liirul lllsinr; Museum nt South Kensington has added n similar function- ary to its staff. lie will make two trips a day through the Museum, encb one lusting an hour, and presumably Involving n visit to aud brief explanation of Ibe most Interesting and Instructive habits. Tn sny that this plan will double the educutlnnnl value ot thr. Museum Is to stale ths case for It very mildly. For many of lhe vlslt-irs, probably tho Vast majority of them, the collections In such museums undescrlbed. mean nothing. The same thing la true to u lesser de- gree In saologlcnl gardens, and even art museums. The provision of a lecturer, sufficiently (nnd obviously) scientific or artistic, so lhat the tip- ping problem was eliminated, would add enormously to the vnlue of every public museum There seems no way In which the amount nf money necessary tc secure the services of a really competent mun for this position could bo spent to better advantage ,, CURIOUS BELIEFS OF MOTHERS London,—Four years' medical examination »f tiie children at lending the Acton Council Schools has brought to light ac astonishing number of curious beliefs on the purl of the mothers. The medical officers In their annuiil report Issued recently, says that there ure still parents who hold that whooping cough may he cured by taking a child near gas works or ihru a tunnel; and in lung complaints there appears to be a special vulue in giiuse grease, which Is considered fur superior lo other oils und medical remedies.

Yet how very llttlo attention the average Individual pays to the injunction. Don't Worry. Worry It is that depresses; worry It is that makes the lunatic; worry- it ls thut induces suicide- Yet there are folk in the world who seem to positively glory in their worries, and who are never lired of boasting ot them. No doubt It Is easier for the onlooker to say don't worry, than It is for the one thus admonished to carry out the order. Yet when all Is said and done, why worry? What ls there to gain through worrying. Has anyone ever been a whit the easier, happier or healthier through worrying. Assuredly not! Worry has never contributed one single iota of happiness or of good cheer- Therefore refuse to worry or be worried. If one of life's problems comes along and bos to be faced, why. face it; but put the best face upon It and in'any case, do not worry. IT MUST HAVE BEEN ANNOYING The Circle Railroad in London describes a circle whose diameter Is about en miles. In Ihe car one day was n very obese lady who expressed the utmost solicitude lest she be carried pust her station. A passenger assured her that the station was a half-hour away, and thnt ho would tell her whon they renched lt.

Ho was walking nlong at a fairly good gait when he wns halted by a policeman, who nsked I say. you, what you been doln'? Nothing, replied McFee. Why? Well, what's the crowd following you for, "Yes I consider my life a failure." "Oh, Henry, how sad!Why ahould you say that?"

CHERRY GARDEN Londoners, In cherry time, used formerly to flock to Bermandsey to regale themselves with fruit at the famour Cherry Garden.

New Strength for Nursing Mothers Aching Backs and Tired Limbs Need Not be Endured Aching backs, tired limbs, attacks of falntnesr, headaches and i.t!'.- aches, need not be a part of woman's life.

After my hnby was l.orn lust summer I wus so run down tbat lifo was really a burden. I had to drag myself about to do my housework, nnd every moment was one of trlnl. If 1 went upsinlrs I would be breathless and tired oul, and ray heart would palpitate violently, nnd would hnvo a feeling as though I was smothering. My appetite was poor, and my baby was suffering from my weakness. I was advised to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills and got six bases, and before they were all quite used 1 wns like a different woman. My appetite returned; I regained my strength, and tha work about the houso nn longer bothered me. As the result of my experience 1 would strongl. urge all weak women and nursing mothers to use Dr. William.' Pink Pills.

POTTED ROSES There was a time whei. Englishmen could celebrate St, George's Day by feasting on roses as well as wearing them. Old cookery books ubound lu recipes Into which rose leuves enter. One writer tells how to make potted roses. 1 first pound somo of the most fragrant, roses lu a mortar, then 1 take thu brains of birds and pigs well boiled anVi stripped of every particle of meat, I then add the yolks of some eggs, some oil, a little cordial, some pepper apd some wine. After huvlng beaten und mixed It well together, I place 11. over a slow fire. When this dish Is brought to table the most, delicious fragrance issues forth, covering the guests with delight.

Natural Cure for Catarrh Obviates Taking Drugs It Has Superseded the Old-fashioned Stomach dosing Remedies, and Invariably Cures Quickly It wus their inublllty to reach the real suurce of catarrh and bronchitis that caused the medical profession to drop liquid cough medicine und adopt "Catarrhozono" instead.

For the first lime in nine months a slight decrease in the cost of living as compared with the previous month is indicated in the monthly report of wholesale and retail prices issued by the department of labor. During July, the index number, the barometer of prices showed a slight decrease. The wholesale index number fell from lo" to 185, but it is still nine points above the level of one year ago. There is a slight falling olt in the price of grains, fruits, vegetables and hay. Hides,metals, boots, shoes, lumber and furniture on the other hand went up slightly. In the retail brands potatoes and sugar declined in price while eggs and coal slightly increased. Meats were firm. So far as the average consumer is concerned, therefore, the difference is not material as yet, hut the falling off is taken as a hope- ful indication for llie future. A world without mistakes mid without suffering would he a world ithout real men and women, without literature, without music, without painting or sculpture, and without love, and even throughout history is a record of toward struggles better and higher things. Without obstacles to overcome and errors to correct men and women would lapse to a level of beasts in mentality. Intellectual and spiritual development would cease and souls not refined bv the lire of ordeals would die of something akin to tatty do- generation. The race would perish of ennui or insanity. After all it's a pretty fair world as it stands, Much advice might have been offered at the worlds making if a few experienced old ladies had been standing by, but the odds are it would not have been so good a world its it is to-day.
