UPWARD TREND OF MORALITY.
fly P. J. Dolliver.
In my opinion, the largest evidence
of the moral progress nf the American
people lies In the recognition, now well-
nigh universal, that at bottom all the
problems of society are not simply
problems of politics and government,
but are In reality question» of applied
religion. There Is no unanswered ques
tion In legislation that Is uot answered
In the gospel of Christ. Those mighty
oom j vim problems that have brought our philos
ophy amt statesmanship almost to a standstill, If they
have any solution at all, will find it In the practical ap-
plication to the dally life of this world of that ancleut
law which we have Inherited from our fathers and moth
era, the law of Christ revealed to te. world in the go»-
pels.
And for that reason It 1» with hop«; nnd courage that
we look toward the future; and I venture to predict that
the time Is at hand, nearer than we know, when we shall
realize that the world In which we are living. In Its
literature, Its law, In the building of cities. In the em
ploying of labor, In the Investment of money, and In its
civilization, Is only a bouse of prayer and every mau is
a brother.

EGOTISM IS NOT COURAGE
By John À. Howland.
In the business world It is no mark of ca
pability In a inau that he shows bis egotism.
It 1» a hnndlcap, especially among those who
have graduated into the practical truths of
life and work. An old employer observing
the egotism of the young man sees only weak
ness tn the mark. Confidence in his own
equipment for Ills work must be necessary In
any man who accomplishes things, lie must
know how to do his work, and he must do that work.
Ttie work Itself Is the measure of the man's worth. He
may know how the work Is done and yet not be able
to do it, which Is valueless; or he may be able to do cer
tain work, not knowing bow It Is done, and be too great
a risk as an employe.
But when he knows and out of Ills knowledge does his
work to the mark, uo further assurance Is required of
him. If be shall go further and through wordy re
iteration and swashbuckling movements attempt to un
load a surplus personal Importance ui»>n his fellows, lie
bec unes a target for all those things which his fellows
may alm at him to his downfall.
The young mail afflicted with tills egotism well might
devote a little time to discover in himself the earmarks
of the trouble. Courage must not be confounded with
ego; courage is a uecesslty. But egotism 1» a weakness,
and the young mail wtio would be truest to hluiBelf
should be rid of It by a course of self-training that will
blot It out forever.

bitterest disillusions
All the husbands In the world fall Into two grand
classes, the good and the bad. The good are always the
same. They love their wives above everything else, and
the first thought 1 b to render them happy. They seek
riches, honors, glory Itself, but to weave a garland to
place on the brow of the beloved woman. They neither
command nor obey, for they consider themselves neither
above nor below their w’lfe, but her equal. They dis
cuss with her the big and little problems of life, and
they always finish by arriving at the same conclusions
with her. Over their head burns alws.vs the sun, a sun
which does not scorch but warms, a sun -which never
sets.
WOMAN SUFFRAGE IN AMERICA.
By Mri. T. Cobden Sanderson
There are two classes of women In the
United States u;>on whom the chief hope of
woman suffrage rests. The one Is the college
girl. I am bound to say that as a rule they
know little about the question, perhaps be
cause they approach It from a different stand
point
The Idea of the thinking college girl
is to go Into polities In order to purify It.
The other class Is the working woman, or
rather the laboring woman, whose only means of Improv
ing their condition and obtaining better wages is by
combination and getting political power.
Woman suffrage Is not likely to be grunted by separate
legislation In America. The thing 1» too complicated.
There lire five States altogether tlint have adopted ft,
but only Colorado as a State—the others Introduced worn
an suffrage when they were Territories. And of course
that doos not touch federal government. So I think
that women will have to wait until the Amerlran Fed
eration of Labor is strong enough to have Its way—for
woman suffrage Is part of Its program.
