They are its base. All the people look up to their influence anl their in spiration. They must" be under the guidance of men of piety and men of an open mind. They must con tinue their indispensable service to the cause of free dom by bringing all the people unto a knowledge of the truth. There must be an increasing reliance upon relig ion. It is the source of all faith. It is the evidence of the eternal purpose, and of the true power, the true nobility of mankind. It gives a divine sanction to the authority of righteous government, to faithful service through economic relationship, mid to the peaceful covenants of international understanding. It repre-i-.'nts the only hope of the world, the only motive by which mankind can bear the burdens of civilization. The peculiar meaning of America is faith, faith in the first place in an international power, faith in the second place in mankind. There ?i rc those who doubt the stability of republican institutions. There are luose who question the ability of a people long to maintain a democracy. The progress of the race does not lie merely in the intelligence, philos ophy, or the art of a few, but in their possession by the many, in their general acceptance. America lays no claim to the discovery of the theory of freedom of pelf-government. Its glory lies in the ability of its people to put those theories into practice, nut merely the power to state them but the capacity to live up to them. The inalienable right of man to life and liberty and to be protected in the enjoyment of the rewards of his own industry have thoir source in religion. The rights of man as man, the dignity of the individual, find their justification in that source alone. Whenever its teachings were fully admitted, the rest followed as a matter of course. It was religion that came first; then the establishment of free government. AVith these there came the opportunity for a general education, for a broader service by the institutions of higher learning, which ushered in the age of science, resulting in the great material prosperity. These were the institutions which Americans built up and supported out of their faith in an eternal purpose and out of their faith in mankind.

It Is hard sometimes for the old and the young to arrive at a common point of understanding. The old lady and the Sunday school boy in tills story did finally arrive at an understanding, but not until the boy had suffered duiiia!;e to his feelings, if not to his possessions. A picnic was in progress, r.nd the benevolent and elderly lady took much enjoyment jn witnessing tlie delight of tlie children who w ere disporting them selves in her grounds. She went from one to another, say ing a few kind words to each. Pres ently she seined herself on a grass plot beside Dickie, a little boy with Kolden curls and an angelic expression, liut as snoii us lie observed her sitting heside him Dickie set up an ear-pierc-ttig howl. "Have you the stomach-ache?", she asked, anxiously. ' "No. I ain't." snapped Dickie. ' "Perhaps you would like some more cake." "No!" roared the angelic child. "What I want Is my frog that I ketcbed." 'Frog?" ; , 'Yes, my frog! You're sl'tlng on him !"

The Russian Inlluence is felt In coars as In everything else, and a Ions, straight coat with a soft blouse, at a low waistline, is the most promising variation shown of the straight line wraps. Tlie uneven hemline Is tin other style po'nt worth looking for in new coats, and large novelty fasten hits placed at one side, on the bloiised models, are aineng the things that Ideiitlfv new coats us the last word in style.

IN THE LAND OF ROMANCE Commonplace Couple Only Joking When They Compared Their Dif ferent Preferences. They were sitting In the half-dark ness of the picture theater, holding hands. They were very small, pale, and insignificant. He was "something In the city," she was the same thing In the female "line." The stirring drama upon the screen was "The Queen and the Duke." "Ain't he a wonderful man?" ap plauded the girl. "I could die for a man like that a tall, dark, handsome man, the kind that is born to rule. I don't see how she can resist hira!" Then he had his say: "Ain't she a wonderful queen? That's the sort I like the tall, stately woman that can look you over like a worm and go trailing them silk robes round and granting her favors with a cold, proud smile upon her beautiful Hps." "Really, Jack!" "No, Sue; I was only Joking!" And they held each other's hands a little tighter, and tlie screen lost Its Interest for at least two more In tlie crowded picture house. Unknown Australia. A motoring expedition which will occupy months and cover ground hitherto untrnversed without the aid of camels and donkeys is being under taken from Adelaide for Darwin, re turning through the bush cnutitryof Queensland, New' South Walis, and Victoria, approximately 8,000 miles.

Burmese Story of Man's Origin. A myth current aaieng the Bur mese says that hesreuly iwinjjs nme down from the skiea to the earth, and there ate Thalesan, a particular kind of rich rice, which gradually made them gross of habit, so thut thv were unable to make their way hack to the higher heavens again and had to be come men and women. The Chins have a story of the Tower of Mabel to account for. the various elans that Inhabit the mnge of hills looking down on the Ray of Hi ngal, and traditions of a deluge are found everywhere. The Kachlns tell a story of the pas sage over a bridge, to the afterlife, and there are many more of the kind '.li.it suggest these folk-myths coiue down from a long gone past. To Tell Time Elsewhere. I' A the convenience to know the time in other leading cities of the world as compared with New York time, a new desk clock has been placed on the market.

A proud but truthful resident of Yoiikers admitted that there were a lot of cuckoos there. lie wasn't proud of the cuckoos, particularly. As far as cuckoos are concerned, his pride Is strictly civic. If one must have cuckoos, he prefers the Swiss kind, which are vocal only when wound up and then only at intervals. The Yonkers cuckoo doesn't have to be wound up. The imported eight-day cuckoo Is a piker beside the Yonkers cuckoo. The Yonkers cuckoo stays awake half the night waiting 'for the dawn and each has the same pride in being the first to salute the earliest gleam of the sky that a farmer's wife bus in getting her washing out before a neighbor's line Is strung. , From the moment that the night be comes faintly luminous until about 9:35 a. m. the air is tremulous with cuckoos. From 9:35 to 10:05, the cuckoos knock off for lunch. Then they're at it again until dark. They yel "cuck-oo" at every resident of Y'onkers they see and even at Strang ers from Peekskill. When the street Is utterly deserted they murmur "euck-oo, cuck-oo" Just for practice. BIRD DOESN'T HAVE TO FLY Washington Specimen Uses the Street Car as His Particular Means of Transportation. Now that spring is here, it may In terest bird lovers to know that at least one bird has solved the problem of transportation without the use of wings. Birds are famous for their migra tions, but hitherto they always have used wing power. Now comes along one local bird who gets himself from place to place with scarcely the flap of a wing. This bird came riding down Penn svlvania avenue about eleven o'clock one morning last week. He was perched on the roof of a street car coming from Georgetown. When the car stopped at Eleventh street the bird alighted, and walked gravely up and down the platform, lie was a fine, big fellow, with a black body and a blue head, but did not look like a blackbird. ; After surveying the' post office de partment for a bit, the bird flew over to a car about to leave for Mount ver nin, and established himself on the roof. When the car pulled out, the hlrd was wil! it. -Washington Star.
