No cry goes up with such passionate
Intensity from the race of men as
that for peace of mind and heart.
AH human peace falls. The peace
of pleasure Is carnal. The peace of
fame Is hollow. The peace of stole
Ism la proud and bitter. These are
vain because ot man. There is no
true peace but "the peace of God;
the peace that flows down upon the
soul from the eternal sphere that of
which the psalmhst says "This is my
rest forever. Here will I dwell be
cause I have desired It
Look at the Intensity of this peace.
"It Is the peace which passeth all
understanding." Some truths cannot
be told by words. Tbey are too large
for linguistic moulds. We feel their
Impulses surging upon our Inner
thought but shape them into audible
terms we cannot. But of this peace
the apostle says that it is not even
thinkable. It not only cannot be con-
ceived in thought. It la the peace
"that passeth all understanding."
The serenity of this peace! It is
says our text "the peace which shall
keep your hearts and minds" that is
it is a composing quieting peace. It
"keeps" our spirits from the flutter
or worry and unrest. It is a lake of
being tranquil and calm. Human
peace Is proved by Its fickleness. It
Is transient as the bubble fitful as
tho flreflv. But the "peace of God" la
. ot unbroken serenity. "He nhall cov-
er thee with his feathers and under
his wings shalt thou trust."
When we attain this state we lay
our worries and cares on an almighty
brom. We lose the tumultuous fever
and haste of other days. Our soul is
poUed In God satisfied with God
seeks nothing outside of God. The
life loses the babble of Its earlier
course and sweeps onward to the
olivine ocean from which it derived
Its being with a stillness which be-
speaks its depth a serenity which
foretells its destiny. Tho very face
tells the tale of the sweet still life
within which Is attuned to the ever-
lasting chime of the land where
storms come not nor conflict nor
alarm. "Thou shalt keep blra In per-
His Constant Companionship.
If we live near to our Heavenly
Father we should strive o realize
his constant companionship. Wher
ever a devout soul meets God is a sa
cred spot whether it be like Jacob's
solitary pillow of stone oi a Sabbath
sanctuary. Wc ought to make the
workshop the counting-room the
study the kitchen and the farmer's
field sacred with God's presence. The
nursery In which the pious mother
trains her child is one of God's dwell
ing places and I have seen many a
sick chamber that was the vestibule
of heaven. Happy the pastor who re
turning to his study finds both his
Bible open and the mercy seat close
beside him with precious promises
strewn thick about. It! The nearer
he gets to his Lord and Master in
that study the nearer will he get tc
the hearts of his people In his pas
toral work and in his pulpit. The man
of business who gets a little time
with God in the morning over Lie
Bible or on his knees will go to the
tumult of the day all the stronger. To
begin the day with prayer will keep
It from raveling out Into many a folly
or sin. Stout old Luther used to say
that he "could not get on without two
hours a day in prayer and close fel
lowship with God."
The much talked of "higher life" is
simply living close to God on the
Sabbath In his sanctuary and through
the week In our dwellings and places
of business. It is keeping our citi
zenship In heaven and our eyes above
the blinding mists of worldllness and
our hearts !n close touch with our
Divine Master. They that thus wait
on Uod shall renew tneir strengtn;
they shall mount up as eagles. Their
outlook is wide; their spiritual at
mosphere is bracing; their fellowship
with their Father and their Savior
is sweet; they rehearse a great deal
of heaven before they get there.
Close to God here they will find the
gates of pearl opening to them all
In good time and they will go In to
be "forever with their Lord.
The Glory of Loving Jesus
Jesus Is the secret of our securest
peace the root or our aivinesi rap
ture the spirit of our holiest calm;
and the love that we have for him
garrisons the spirit and guards the
heart against the thousand menaces
that threaten its safety and tranquil
lity. If In the midst of life's myster-
ies wo have trust. If In its darkest
night we catch the shining of the
morning star if in Its bitter sorrows
we lay hold on a great bope. If we
trample on our despairs and undis
mayed pursue our way through the
fires of temptation and affliction it is
because our heart Is set upon the
Ixjrd and our love has its own con
fldence which if It cannot interpret
to the mind. Is still immovable and
sure. By the swift and sure lntui
tlon of love we know him whom we
love and in him w rejoice greatly
with Joy unspeakable and full ol
glory. He has taken our poor heart
which aforetime was the home of un
rest and care and bitterness and has
filled it with unearthly satisfaction
For centuries the economists have
been disputing about the definition
and offices of money says the Wall
Street Journal. There are almost as
many different theories of money as
there are schools In theology. There
seems to be an immense difficulty In
comprehending Just what money is
what it does in facilitating the ex-
changes of the world and what Is its
Influence upon prices. . Here is the
most practical and substantial thing in
the world an article which is in uni
versal use and which is most eagerly
sought after by people of every clime
and race and yet how little we know
about It! Even now no one can tell
exactly how much currency a country
ineeds to carry on Its business and how
large should be the reserves of gold
against the bank reserves. Even
bankers whose business all the time
is to deal In money as others deal In
merchandise are liable to become
hope'essly confused in a discussion
regarding the principles which under
lie its use.
Strange to say the confusion which
attends an economic study of money
also attends any discussion of the
ethics of money. All the philosophy
In the world has not answered the
question of how much money it is
wise for a man to possess. How wide
ly "men differ even our scholars and
moral instructors as to the proper
methods of acquiring wealth. We
even dispute as to the wisest use of
money. We are not agreed as to the
distribution of money in charity. It
would seem as if the commonest the
most universal tool of man was the
one thing that plagued him the most.
But this Is not all. Useful indis
pensable as money is there is noth
ing which is more constantly put to
an evil Uoe or which is more likely
to destroy the man who uses It. There
Is something about money which de
files nearly all who touch It. There
are indeed some rare souls that are
immune to Its corrupting Influence
but the great body of mankind are
susceptible to its corroding power.
Both lack and superfluity both poverty
and riches seem to destroy the finer
fibers of the soul. The Individual who
has the most chance of throwing off
money's baneful influence is he who
stands midway between superfluity
and poverty.
Money is a microbe that poisons
the blood and perverts the mind and
heart of a man. No one is happy
without it and yet no one is really
happy who po-'sesses much of It. The
more one gets the more he wants.
Money getting becomes a passion. It
fastens itself upon one like a habit.
Even the opium eater Is not more In
control of a demon than one who has
got the "itch for money." He becomes
a slave to the very thing which is
Intended to be his tool. The disease
affects' different people differently.
Some It makes sordid penurious
mean. Others It leads to lavish dis-
play and extravagance. Some use It
for mere luxury. Others enjoy 'it for
Its power. Nearly all in one way or
another are changed and often pollut-
ed by the possessions of wraith.
The Three Lamps.
I wandered Into trackless ways
Hewlldrred and alone
Nor morn nor noonday llprht was there
But star-forgotten everywhere
The burdened night was blown.
Within my hand no staff had I;
My heart was wrought with fears;
Beneath my feet were withered leaves
And broken boughs as those vhere
grieves
The wind-harp of the years.
When every blossom lifeless lies
t'pon the thousand hills.
And earth seems but a burial place
(LuuiiuuMiik life and every grace
That promise half fulfills.
Down on my knees i knelt and prayed
That I be shown the way
Where smoother places for my feet
Bhould lead along where paths were sweet
Into the glittering day.
I.o! then did I behold afar
Three flickering lamps of ftre
Bright burning on a golden shrine.
A voice said: "All these lamps were
thine
If thou shouldst but desire."
My pilgrim feet pressed eager on.
On toward the whining place.
As I drew near all conlldent
The dark by whitest wings was rent
And then before my face
Those lamps of Faith and Hope and
Love
On Truth the golden shrine
Revealed these mystic words to me
Kngiaved upon Eternity.

Alcohol and Commercial Efficiency.
Under the presidency of the Lord
Mayor a conference of business men
was held at the Mansion House Lon-
don recently to consider the subject
of "Alcohol in Relation to Commercial
Efficiency." The gathering which was
convened under the auspices of the
National Temperance League was
attended by a large number of promi-
nent and Influential men.
Mr. J. W. Benn M. P. who was the
first speaker remarked that as a total
abstainer of fifty-four years' standing
he desired to put In a plea for the re-
duction of our drinking on the ground
of commercial efficiency. If those pre-
sent were to put down on a list those
who had fallen away through drink
they would find Included some of the
to prohibit officials of the company
carrying liquor on their private cars
when traveling on business or making
tours of Inspection. This particular
action marks the latest advance In
what we may truly call the only effec-
tive war that can ever be waged
against intemperance. It is powerful
because practical. The average sense
of right and wrong when dissociated
from the material Is not sufficiently
developed to be appealed to by argu-
ments crncernlng moral obligation
and the like. But there are very few
men who have to work for a living
who are not able to appreciate the
value of Intemperance when they see
other men lose good positions because
of intemperance. There are very few
men who are willing to disregard the
argument of the flattened pay envel
ope. He who drinks however skilled
or talented Is worth less than he who
does not. And this admirable change
has been brought about in part by the
railroad and other great corporations
which have had the good sense to see
that the only way to solve a practical
problem is by applying practical rules
and methods. Philadelphia North

My belief is that the vast majority

otherwise would be.
The drink habit therefore seems de-
cidedly on the increase. Reports show
that while drinking has greatly de
clined among the better off classes it
has got a bigger grip on the poorer
masses of the people. I am surprised
myself while there Is such evidence
of Increased drink consumption at the

rreet in society who never drink alco-

I dreamed a dream of beauty.

Of waving plumes of palms and gusts

Of lilies and rare roses
That glistened bright between
Rich banks of brilliant tropic blooms
That I had never seen.
I dreamed about the ocean
And mountains close beside.
Their purple mantles bordered by
The silver of the tide.
I dreamed of holy brethren.
Of gentle word and deed.

To sow the Lord a good Beed.

New York June 13. In the recent
agitation here about the price of gas
the demand for lower rates was sup-
ported by the argument that every
resident Is as dependent upon a sup-
ply of gas as upon a supply of good
water.
It has come to pass that the day
laborer uses gas as hla only fuel for
cooking because of economy and the
rich man uses gas on account of Its
convenience. Gas for lighting with
Hiodern Improvements In burners I
cheaper better and more satisfactory
than any other kind of light. Gas
sells at J1.00 per thousand cubic feet
In large cities and from that to as
high as $3 00 in smaller towns.
The consumer of gas In the country
uses Acetylene (pronounced a-set-a
lene) and each user makes his owa
gas and is independent of Gas and.'
Electric Companies. Acetylene Is a'
more perfect lllumlnant than the gas
sold by the big gas companies In the
cities and the cost to the smallest
user Is about the equivalent of city
gas at 85 cents per thousand.
Acetylene is the modern arunciar
light the latest addition to the many
inventions that have become flauy
necessities.
The light from' an acetylene flam
Is soft steady and brilliant and ia
quality Is only rivaled by the sun's
rays. If water and a solid xratenai
known as Calcium Carbide are
brought lnte contact the Immediate
result is the making of this wonder-
ful gas. The generation of acetylene
Is so simple that experience or evea
apparatus Is' not necessary to make
It. If It Is desired to make it lor prac-
tical lighting and to keep It for Im-
mediate use then a small machine
called an "Acetylene Generator" la
employed. There are many responsi-
ble concerns making acetylene gener-
ators. In practice this gas Is dis-
tributed in small pipes throughout
buildings grounds or entire cities
and towns In the same manner as
ordinary city gas. Acetylene is the
only satisfactory means of lighting

try or suburbs at a distance from city
gas or electrlo plants.
nection with various institutions con-
trolled by the London County Coun-
cil was that instead of killing cheer-
fulness the absence of alcohols from
asylums had largely tended to pro-
mote the percentage ot discharges.
Sir Victor Horsley M. D. observed
that alcohol was not essential to life.
The medical profession held that its
use was one of the greatest national
evils and he suggested that socially
and commercially it was a far greater
evil than anything the profession con
sidered It to be. There was a common
belief that there was no harm but ac-
tually some profit. In taking alcohol.
But they had no moral right to sup-
port the continued use of something
which on the whole was a source of
loss and not of profit to the nation
at large. Of the annual outlay oi
1GO000000 to 180000000 on drink
his view was that it was all thrown
away. That however was only one
part of the bill. They had to add to
that the cost of crime of poverty of
the premature death of bread-winners
and of preventable disease. That cost
was largely due to alcohol. From a
medical point of view he wished to
say that from all this great expendi-
ture there was no profit. Neither was
there any profit In the dietetic use of
alcohol. In reality It had a paralyzing
effect. People said that they talked
more but whether they talked better
was another matter. So far from
thinking quicker they thought more
slowly and Instead of calculating bet
ter they calculated worse. Any imag
ined benefit was absolutely swamped
by the depressing after effects.
Dr. T. B. Hyslop questioned whether
a nation could call itself prosperous
when there was an increase of ineffl-
cients and of those confined in asylums.
When Britons were an agricultural
race they might have been able to
Imbibe ale but in the present state of
their existence men could not witi
Impunity allow ale to play dally
pranks with them. They were hot to
be compared with the four-bottle men
of their ancestors. He believed that It
the present generation undertook such
e.2esses as their ancestors did they
would soon find themselves In the asy-
lum. In the healthy body the use of
alcohol was an abuse. The man In
the city who resorted to the restaur-
ant and took alcohol under the Im
pression that he was doing his body
good was actrilly lessening his com-
mercial efhViin'jy. '
Mr. J. Y. Henderson mentioned that
the nation's drink bill had fallen off
by five and a half millions compared
with the preceding year but remarked
that if we drank no more than the
Americans we should save 70000-
000 per annum.
Drink Doesn't Pay.
While organizations which concern
themselves with the moral welfare of
the people are spending time money
and honest effort in an attack to over-
come the liquor traffic and Its attend-
ant evils 'by appealing to the senti-
mental side of human nature the rail-
roads and certain other great corpor-
ations are actually accomplishing this
end by practical appeals to the pock-
ets of their employes. Rules prohib-
iting employes from indulging in liq-
uor or frequenting saloons while on
duty are now strictly enforced by near-
ly every American railroad and with-
in the last few weeks the Chicago acd
tious. He has this filled twice during
dinner. His ancestors did so and he
observes the family custom. I believe
that an enormous amount of our drink-
ing arises from the mistakes we make
People drink we read and why should
not we drink too? As I once heard a
gentleman express it: "Drinking Is a
good old established custom. I don't
pretend to be wiser than my forefath-
ers so I drink as they did."
As a matter of fact he does nothing
of the kind. His life Is entirely differ-
ent from the lives his forefathers led.
End his drinking is done under totally
different conditions. If his forefathers
were alive to-day I dare say that a
considerable number of them would
be total abstainers. Because Mary
Queen of Scots drank a quart of beer
for breakfast would be held no satis-
factory reason for a modern woman
doing anything of the kind. That men
used to drink two or three bottles of
wine with their dinner does not con-
vince me that it was either good for
them or that it would be good for me.
I am certain that it would be worse
for me than it was for them. John A.

The Making of Maps

graphical libraries collected from
every source and In every language.
The modest sketch map of the mis-
sionary In some wild region Is a
highly valued as the mor complete
survey map. In making a new map
of any Important region the compila-
tions madn by others are hardly ever
touched. Represertitlves are sent
out and every detail Is taken from Its
original source. These representa
tives are paid enormous salaries. They
are never rushed but are. allowed to
take as long a time with the work as
they think necessary. The cost oi
Droducins a map of the world would
be enormous; each government would
have to share the expense. The time
taken would also be very great. There
are at present no ordnance maps ot
South America nor of large portions
of Asia Even were a united errors
made It would be many year3 before
the work could be completed. Dif-
ferent methods would have to be em
ployed in different countries. St

Is Death Warrant for Indians.
When the United States Court In a
recent decision declared that any In-
dian who had received his allotment
of land could purchase all the whisky
he wanted It sounded the death knell
of the Winnebago Indian tribe in east-
ern Nebraska on the Missouri river.
Already besotted and degraded by lax
morals and cursed with an unquench-
able taste for Intoxicants the Wlnne-
bagoes and Omahas were fast going
tho pace which led them further into
debauchery; but the decision of the
court by which the saloons are prac-
tically thrown open to them will in
the opinion of those most familiar
with the Indians accelerate their
descent and will In a few years lead
to the extermination of the entire na
tion.
"It will be but a few years unt'1
every able-bodied man on the reserva
tion will drink himself to death says
Superintendent Wilson of -the Indian
agency. "It means the finish morally
and physically of this tribe of In
dians." Brooklyn Eagle.

Sage's Contribution
A late story of Russell Sage tells
how a committee of society womea
watted upon him and asked a sub-
.scriptlon to some charitable object.
Carnegie Rockefeller and Morgaa
were down for a thousand or two
each and Mrs Russell Sage's name
appeared opposite the modest sum of
$100. The old financier reached for
his pen and his fair visitors were ju-
bilant until he handed hack the sub-
scription list. He had merely written
"Mr. and" In front ot "Mrs. Russell
Bags."
