Our Christian Science friends do not
harp much on religion, but they In
slat these body temples ought to be
glorious and beautiful, and they are
getting converts because hitherto lota
of folks were willing their bodies
should have no more care than shan­
ties In a mining town. We've been
selling slices of our constitution aDd
years o f our lives for lack of thought i ,
We forget that life Is worth more liv­
ing If we take care of the liver. You
are not necesaarlly wrong with God
because you are depressed. The devil
may be after the body as well as the
soul. Alexander Cruden was insane
part of the time; so was Cowper. Da
vld cried, “Out of the depths of hell
have I cried unto thee.” Job, among
the ashes with broken pieces of pot
tery, moans, "8orrow Is better thaD
laughter.”
Jeremiah’s lamentations
suggest Carlyle’s duodenal catarrh
Don't underestimate your body. When
the warning bells of pain ring you'd
better notice the call. The first requi­
site In life Is to be a good animal. A
good body Is equal to 50 per cent more
brain. If you want to get the highest,
best balanced, most long continued
mental and moral power for God and
humanity get a sound physique There
Is a doty o f health because health Is
power, mental, social, spiritual.

Time was when folks seemed to
think HI health a mark of spirituality.
They were shocked when Emerson
said, “ A sick man Is a rascal.” Some­
times piety was a disease of the liver;
now we think differently concerning
health. Then success had to come
first; now we say health first. Amos
R Wells says: "It makes no difference
how well you can write short stories
If tuberculosis Is fastened on you, nor
how persuasively you can preach If
jou have persistent nervous head­
aches, nor what skillful mechanic you
are If you have overstrained your
heart, nor how divinely you sing If
your liver Is out o f order, nor what
avenue o f usefulness Is open before
you If It Is blocked by bodily disabili­
ties. If you are a fool with your body
don't expect to be a sage with your
mind. First make the physical basis
sound and sweet and then God will let
you build upon It a life to bis glory
and your Joy.” Good! Solomon's tem
pie or the temple o f Diana at Ephesus
Is not to be compared In spiritual value
to the temple o f the body. God comes
down In mysterious fashion and dwells
with us In the temple o f flesh. We
must keep It sweet and clean and pure
without and within.

Much o f health depends on nerves
Vital forces are conducted along them
But we're slhners on dissipating nerve

this vital fluid will postpone their own
funerals. In this year o f grace 1914
we are going some. President Wilson
says. "All life Is not running to a fire.”
But we're In an age of conflagration
and high pressure systems. Every pol­
itician must rush through many bills.

Eugene Delacroix, founder o f the
French romantic school o f art, wag
very poor in his youth. His first
picture of note was his “ Dante and
Vergil,” painted when he was only
twenty years old. It was extreme­
ly large, containing several figure*
the size of life, and to buy tha can­
vas and colors took all the money
Delacroix had. A frame was out of
the question, but a good natured
carpenter gave the young artist
four strips o f lath, of which Dela­
croix made a rude framework for
his masterpiece, which he then sent
to the salon. But he had hardly a
hope .hat his picture would be ac­
cepted.
On opening day Delacroix went
to the salon, bat failed to find hia
painting. He was wandering dis­
consolately about when he noticed
a great crowd before a picture. He
drew near. It was his “ Dante and
Vergil.” But it was in a magnifi­
cent, richly gilded frame, as fine a
product of the picture mounter’*
art as could he found in Paris. As­
tonished, he sought Baron Oroa,
head of the examining committee.
As soon as young Delacroix intro­
duced himself Oros seized his hand
and congratulated him with true
Gallic enthusiasm.
“ But,” stam­
mered Delacroix, “ how about that
splendid frame? I had no money
to frame it, and” —
“ Make your mind easy,” said the
baron. “ Y our lath frame fell to
pieces, but the committee was de­
termined that such a chef d’oenrre
as you have painted should be plac­
ed on exhibition, and we framed
your ‘Dante’ at our own expense.”
— Exchange.

Jonathan Swift once preached a
charity sermon the length o f which
wearied many o f his hearers. The
fact came to his knowledge, and
when a few months later it fell to
him to preach a similar sermon in
the same place he determined to
profit by the criticism.
His text was, “ He that hath pity
upon the poor lendeth unto the
Lord, and that which he hath giv­
en will he pay him again.” And aft­
er repeating these words in a more
than commonly emphatic tone the
dean added; “ Now, my beloved
brethren, you hear the terms of
this loan; if you like the security
down with your dust!”
The quaintness and brevity of the
sermon are said to have brought
forth an unusually large contribu­
tion.— Detroit Free Press.
An Advertisement
Is a Challenge
By
HO LLAN D.
HE man who advertises
Is fearless. He courts the
light He-dares all and sun­
dry to put him to the test
"This Is what I oiler," he
says In effect “Can you beat
it? Can you do better else­
where?
Make comparisons
and then do business with
me only If you find It Is to
your advantage.”
There Is nothing hidden
about the advertiser.
He
stands up for himself, for his
goods, for his reputation, for
his towu. He wants every­
body to know him, to know
his methods of business and
his manner of treating cus­
tomers.
This mnkes It safe to do
business with him. Having
spent much money making
his name known, he cannot
afford to have It tarnished,
and be will go much more
than halfway In an effort to
correct a misunderstanding
that Is not o f his making He
wants to tell more than the
bare truth, to do more than
what Is really square.

In the year 1736 a gentleman liv­
ing in England named Samuel Bald-
wyn died after a somewhat unhap­
py married life. By hia will Mr.
Baldwyn left his property to hia
young wife on the condition that
6he should from time to time dance
upon his grave. The motive for
this strange request was evident
when the instructions for his inter­
ment were read. Mr. Baldwyn de­
sired that his remains should be
taken by boat to the Needles and
then cast into the sea. This singu­
lar wish enabled him to revenge
hi inself on his wife for past dis­
agreements, and the widow lost the
property, as she could not fulfill the
conditions of her husband’s bequest.

In the days when Rowley Hill was
bishop of the Isle of Man one of his
clergymen bearing the name of
Tears came to say adieu to his bish­
op on getting preferment. The par­
son said: “ Goodby, my lord. I hope
we may meet again, but if not here
in some better place.”
The bishop replied, “ I fear the
latter is unlikely, as there are no
Tears in heaven.”
“ No doubt,” wittily answered the
parson, “ you are right that our
chance of meeting is small, as one
reads of the plains o f paradise, but
never o f any Hills there.” — London
