WHAT SEEK YE FOR?
Some one has said: '"The
chief study of man, is man."
It is true that man is very
much an enigma to himself, and
that he has powers sleeping with
in his mechanism, which, if
awakened, will carry him to the
top round of the Ladder of Fame
nr inL- him in the il.'l.ths of
, , ,. . I
degradation, accord in r to the!
course he pursues and the moans
he uses to satisfy tho aspirations
of his hoingwhon onoeawakened
These attributes are permanent
fixtures in the structure of man
kind and while any one attribute
may be more pronounced in one
person than in another, yet,
they are common to all.
One particular attribute is that
implanted in man's nature which
causes him to reach out ami
strive for that which will satisfy
the craving or longing of his
being. This spur to activity
causes men to rush here and
there, to travel to and fro, ami
to search for that which will
give to them contentment and
bring peace into their lives.
Manv have sought to tiud. in
some favored clime, the mystic
River of Youth, that they might
bathe in its rejuvenating waters
and roll off the binding influ
ences that bountl them to their
surrounding environment, that
they might enjoy that pacific
condition for which they were
so ardently longing.
But notwithstanding their
wanderings and search, the sun
lit gleam of the long sought
river did not burst with glorious
splendor upon their sight Others
have sought to satisfy this desire
of their nature in pursuit of
wealth, and as they have accu
mulated the things of earth,
their desire still kept apace of
their power to accumulate and
when they had reached colossal
success, they found that they had
only aggravated their longing
ami reached a more marked con
dition of discontentment than
before.
Others have sought to appease
this craving of their nature in
pleasure and they have entered
into the race for joys long sought,
with an energy and purpose that
carried them along, with the
pleasure bent throng, to the
heights of the deceptive beacon,
only to find that its allurements
were a myth and its promises
vain.
Still others sought for con
tentment, and looking into the
carnal life found lusts of the
flesh holding out promises of
pleasure, beckoning them to par
take and indulge in the pleasures
. of eating, drinking and the ex
cesses which belong to a greedy,
selfish nature. These, too, enter
into the field opening up before
them, as a haven of rest, from
the -desires which entice them
onward. Some feast until they
are gouty, some drink until they
tiro dolirious, atul othors dissi
pate ono way ami another until
tlit'V are mined, and all tind.

thev have whetted this desire of
their lu'injj, the object for which
they sought is ti H iinattaiiiod.
lint from whence is this mi
compromising desire; this at
tribute of our being which, after
entering into tho pleasures of
tho world, reject them as failures.
If we would fathom tho secret,
wo must hunt elsewhere, ami
reach hack to the creation of
man ami hunt for the purpose
for which he was created, ami
then we may understand the
reason of this unrest. Man was
created to glorify his creator,
and in doing this in the highest
he must he drawn toward Him;
in fact, must measure up to the
' . . '
minn', .ir, nf C irist. Trsns "II.
is not good for man to bo alone,"
was the decree, ami God created
him a helpmeet, but, then came
disobedience, and through dis
obedience came tho estrange
ment of man from his creator,
ami this longing of his being is
the crv of the estranged soul to
regain that which was lost in
the divorcement from him of
divine companionship through
transgression, ami there is no
balm which will soothe the af
Miction until perfect reinstate
ment has been obtained.
It is Publicity at Any Rate
With reference to woman
suffrage, both the pros and the
antis are in Washington, and
each is there, as we may believe,
with a sufficient equipment of
oratorv. 1 lie pros nave inaJe
the more spectacular entrance,
have created the greater stir, and
undoubtedly have done more to
advance the cause they repre
sent than have the women who
profess antagonism to equal
suffrage. So far as publicity
counts and it counts for a great
leal in this day and time the
pros, to use the street phrase,
have put it all over the antis.
It is a little difficult for the
ordinary male man to under
stand just what the inarching
handful of suffragists, which we
read of as an army, hopes to
achieve by the entrance into
Washington, except that one
need not be at all misty about
the value of the advertising the
suffragist has received from this
crusade. In veryeniphaticfushion
it has brought the cause to the
very center of National attention
and it has helped in a way to
make it more nearly a National
cause than it was before. Port
land Telegram.
The Capitol Journal in no
ticing the elimination of the
donkey from the inaugural
parade, says, in speaking of the
splendid victory last fall, that it
was not necessary, and proposes
its loan to Ex-president Roose
velt until needed.
Remarkabl Vision.
An old woman who had been in
the infirmarv with sore eyes told a
neighbor that the doctor took out
her eyes and scraped them with
lances. "Nonsense, woman," re
plied the other. "Ye shouldn't be
lieve all ye hear. The doctors
would only be stuffin' y." "Oh,
but ye know it's no use sayin' that,
for I awakened up out of the chlo
roform and saw both of my eyes ly
in' on the table!"
