Laws of Nature proceeded. There
is nothing to this imaginary re-
ligion, and when a man gets down
to the bottom of facts, and out ot
old-time superstition, he will find
that the Law of Nature rules his
every day acts. This great and
j only religion rules the Universe.
It is'the way of Life. It is real,
and not imaginary. It has not a
whang in its make-up that leads
us to believe we are reading An-
derson's Fairy Tales, but is the
real thing. Nature pictures no

It seems that the ladies are left
out in their "reward in heaven"
for all the inhabitants there are
"he-preachers"and "she-virgins."
Oh. you brutes! Nature teaches
health, truthfulness, prosperity,
and a world of happiness. Relig-
ion, as the majority have it,
teaches— Oh Death, sock it to
me with your stinger! The wag-
es of sin is Death. Violation of
the Laws of Nature are worse
than Death. Nature cannot be
ignored, for she rules supreme.
There has never yet been a man,
no matter how well he lived up
to his imaginary religion, who
defied the Laws of Nature and
got away with his hide. He al-
ways pays Nature's penalty. Na-
ture collects the toll humanity
pays for vice. Hear! ye hypo-
crites who wear the mantle of
sanctity and quarrel among your-
selves like a bunch of thieves t<>
see who gives the least, but lend
a helping hand instead of a hand
of selfishness and greed. Be a
man or a yellow cur.
