THE SPIRIT OF REVIVAL.
The city officials with becoming irace have set about to induce the cltijnship to put aside the venial and orldly and have used their own Jiethod, popularly designated as "putting on the lid." The operation should go far towards bringing tht populace to a frame of mind to appreciate and benefit by the efforts of Relv. Lyon, the evangelist, and his associates. Just at this point it might be well to recall fee words o£ the late Rev. Rideout in Ais conception of the influences and effects of a revival. To quote him:
I am the Spirit of Revival. By me prophets spoke and kings were moved and the people mourned By me Elijah brought fire from heavem and Isaiah and Ezekiel had (visions of God. By me Jonah cried aloud and Ninevea reRented, John the Baptist lifted up his voice in the wilderness and multitudes aturned to the Lord. By me Peter

Spread forth to dying nations. By me iVesley and Whitefleld woke a nation to righteousness and the church was baptized with fire. By me Finney preached the gospel, clothed with power, and Moody as he spoke and Sankey as he sang turned the land (Sodward, and by me the millions today ire being called to repentance. By me the word of God becomes afire that .^urns, a hammer breaking hard hearts, Nota sword piercing consciences. I make a thinners tremble and penitents weep, jddthe wicked forsake their ways and the no&nrighteous their thoughts. By me [ndihurches are given joy where there IJiiyas sadness, preachers gladness of as eart instead of sorrow. New songs joni now the Christians' tongues employ, «»fd converts with the light of a new £uecs make glad_ the wilderness and the t^itary places.

THE GENERAL'S VIEW.
JGeneral French in an intertview a few days ago expressed the'belief that t^e cfrux of the war is about at hand the eastern front, and added that •. thivbig movement in the Carpathians will witness the death blow to the kaiser's hopes in the east. The immense armies now locked in a death struggle in the Carpathian passes may decide the outcome of the war. With
Hungary in possession of the Russians, Austria would be eliminated from the

*On the Firing Line.'
The heroism of the battle-field is Spectacular, but there are many true heroes that have perished in war who have never "smelled powder," but who have Buccucabed to sickness and other vicissitudes. The sick and debilitated man is as much out of place in his struggle for life and existence he would be on the firing line, and, on the other hand, the strong, vigorous man, his veins filled with jMie, rich blood, has an enormous •tdvantage in whatever position he may fbe fated to occupy, in war or busi'nesfl.

all the ages has never been gainsaid. Every man who does a brave, heroic act carries within his veins a quality of flood that urges and sustains him. food blood is first, last and always •naking of manly men and womanly tfomefr. It is the source of all courage, virtue and happiness.
It is for this reason that "Golden Medical Discovery gives to men and women their true birthright of hopefulness, endurance and heroism. It works in the natural way, purifying the blood, toning up the stomach and gently stimulating th^iver aud^bowelfi

struggle, and Germany would be open to Russian Invasion. With the Russians driven back, the Austro-German tide might sweep onward into Muscovy and ultimate victory.
Both sides thoroughly understand the importance of the present strug gle. The Austrians are now strongly reinforced by the best German troops, and the German kaiser is himself at the scene of battle. The Russians are bringing up new troops from all directions. Throughout the rest of the long eastern line the foemen are resting and waiting, watching for the result in the Carpathians.
Never in the history of the'world has a great and decisive battle been fought in so magnificent a setting. When the war is over, and the men of the pen halve their turn, the story of the titanic struggle In the Carpathian passes will undoubtedly be the chosen theme of those who seek picturesqueness, sublimity, heroism or mere terror.
"SILLY AND BASE."
Colonel Roosejvelt's declination to endorse the women's peace movement seems not to have deterred the enterprise. The foremost citizen of Oyster Bay told the ladies they were engaged in a plan that is "silly and base." However, the peace ship is on its way. On hoard are forty American women, bound for the International Women's conference at The Hague. From one of the masts of the Noordam flies a strange new flag. It is white, and bears no device save the one English word "Peace" in blue letters.
The American delegation, which is headed by Jane Addams and which Includes some of the most prominent of American women, has undertaken the long and somewhat hazardous journey in the hope of being able to contribute toward the cause of peace. Probably the most optlmiBtic member of the delegation does hot hope for any tangible result. They do hope, however, that their example may somewhat influence the women of the warring nations. If the women of the world would unite in demanding that war should cease there would be no more war.
It is no slight undertaking for a body of women to go to Europe at this time. There are real dangers, and there are certain to be many Inconveniences. The devotion of the American delegation merits generous praise.
THE JOY OF LIVING.
Old Doctor Houston, who looks after the agricultural pursuits of Uncle Sam's subjects, jocularly remarked the other day that his department did not want to wholly eradicate the potato bug, for its eradication would rob the farmer boy of half of the joy of living. Those citizens who were raised on a farm will think the "Doc" is possessed of a pretty grim sense of humor. But there is something to it. No chores on the farm develop persistency and application as does bugging potatoes.
There are three kinds of potato bugs. One is a red slug which clings to the (vine with a death's grip and curls up when it drops into the pan. Another is a small round beetle, relative of the first-, which is easy to dislodge and hits the bottom of your pan with a thud. But to capture the third variety requires diplomacy and a lightning intelligence. He is an elongated black insect, exceedingly quick of motion,

Bugging potatoes is much like reading Greek or Sanscrit or studying Calculus. There is nothing in the act itself which brings one a permanent acquisition lii the way of equipment for life. It is in the mental training its value lies. No boy can go out in the morning and manfully harvest a pan of bugs without laying another: stone in the foundation of his character. The hoy does not appreciate it, of course, at the tlm6, but the training is there just the Same.
What democracy needs in these days is niore patchesi of potatoes to bug. We are slipping away flrom the homely, character-building occupations of our fathers. Too many future citizens of the republic are growing up in frightful Ignorance of what it means to take pan and stick and go bugging while the dew lis on the vines.

In making a sharp turn, the rear end of a street car struck an express wagon laden with jugs of whisky. Nearly all the jugs were precipitated to the paver nient, with the natural disastrous result. The drivfer of the wagon alighted, and, pointing to the pile of demolished earthenware, said to a bystander, "That's hell, ain't it?"

Overindulgence in pleasures of all sorts are .encouraged by this configuration, It is held, and extreme selfcontrol 4s. obligatory, If the best is to be made of today's opportunities,
Farmers and gardeners should work with unusual industry under this aspect. They have the augury of unexpected disaster. The outlook for the Season, however, is extraordinarily promising.
The conjunction of Venus and Jupiter in-a place good for religious and sociological movements is read as menacing to certain lines of industry.

Man looks to God a? his shepherd. We believe that God is good and that he exercises a protection over our lives and a guidance in the paths of conduct. This psalm takes God out of tlie abstract and givfs him personal relationship to human life. It expresses the conviction of God's ownership of both the individual and the nation. Folks away from God assert their independence and And that like sheep which have gotten out from under tne care of the shepherd they meet danger and face death. Thosa who claim God as their shepherd find that all of life's cares, desires, sorrows, successes and joys are provided for in their cosiscious relationship to Mini. There is no want of human experience but what finds its answer in God, who provided this world as the scene of man's activity.
Man instinctively looks to God for protection and guidance. He has never led man astray. Dead indeed niu.^t be the soul which is not conscious of God's provision for his everv need. It is a universal experience that man when in great want or confronted with dan.srer or death turns li:s henrt unto tiie Infinite Father. Ts there any legitimate reason why man should make his dependence upon God a permanent relationship? "Thy rod and Thy taff they comfort me." The crook Avas useo for the guidance of the sheep, vhile the staff was used for beitinp: off the enemies. The rod falls henvilv upon all who seek to do evil to God's children.
Man, under the protection Tr.d guidance of the Good ShepVierd. tends to become fixed In his habits and character. "I shall dwell in the house of the Lord forever," means a permanent fellowship and attitude of life. Man should deliberately prefer the presence of God above all other methods ol life.

the abundant provision of God's love without a care about his less forlunate brother is sheer selfishness. The experience of spiritual wealth anri Joy should drive us to secure the same blessings for others. The blessing which we enjoy because our nation is not engaged in war should impel us to see that the Good Shepherd has an opportunity to give the same blessing to those who are engaged in the death grapple on European battlefields. No man or woman can claim the full joy expressed In this psalm until all that we enjoy Individually shall have been made possible for all others. We cannot lie down In selfish contentment and ease while others are In want. There can be no permanent peace, quietness and jov except a-11 are within the sheepfold of Godjy love and care.

The. other evening the Washington Times came out in its extra edition with a startling story of legal action begun by Glover of the Riggs bank, to compel the people's representa'dves in the United States treasury from "interefering with the business of the bank." This startling action was given out with a lengthy statement attacking John Skelton Williams, comptroller of the currency, Secretary McAdoo and others. The heavy artillery was turned on Williams, who was accused of persecuting the bank.
The charge was made that McAdoo sent for Glover at one time and accused him of being responsible for i.he publication of a monstrous lie in one of the New York papers. It is interesting to the public to know that Glover did not deny that the newspaper article

The shepherd psalm is the most read and most quoted of all scriptural passages. Tt strikes a personal chor-3 in the lives of all believers. It expresses a hope which is universal. We lose a great deal of the meaning: of this psalm because it Is expressed in the terms ot oriental life. There are certain great ideas which are universal in their appeal to the human heart. The psalm IS the outcome of the experiences of the shepherd life, which the writer touTU to apply to God's relation to man.

disposition, of the Special Interest to lie the administration out of court. On' the evening of the publication ,it^look7 ed cloudy for the treasury.
Then came the tomorrow. Then the Reaction.
The morning papers had the answer —several columns, several columns of correspondence between the Riggs bank and the treasury—and it also furnished an explanation. The Riggs bank had been caught red handed in the violation of the law, engaged in the most reprehensible, practices, and several weeks ago no less a lawyer than Louis Brandies had been retained by the government as special prosecutor. Caught with the goods, the bank decided to beat the government to it by bringing suit.
This promises to be an intensely interesting case, and so far is the government from wishing to escape publicity that it is the earnest wish that the people will perfortn a clearly patriotic duty, by taking a special interest in this case and following the development of the facts.
The Riggs bank is the oldest in the city, It is solvent. It is connected with the City National bank of New York City which Is the clearinghouse of the old time money trust. During the good old days before the Wilson administration an employee of the city national bank had an office in the treasury of the United States where he could keep the money trust in constant touch with the aotions of the government. This, of course, was crooked in principle if not In practice. Tnis man was kicked out of the nation's treasury—and the "persecution" of the gang began.
And Glover—the president, who is he? He is the bully, money-mad, and purse-proud, -who brutally assaulted a member of congress who had shown up something of the combination of real estate sharks, newspaper owners, and bankers which had engaged lucratively in the game of manipulating congress to put money in their purse through public improvements here, and the sale of property for government purposes. At that time the house of representatives played the pitiful snob and merely censured him —instead of throwing him in jail with the other strong arm men.
And who is the attorney for the bank? Ah—here he Is again—our old friend ex-Senator Joe Biley, whose pedigree need not be read in these columns at this late day.
And who is John Skelton Williams who has "persecuted" this bank? "Some fool who never made a penny and is trying to run a bank," I think I heard some one say. Some serriisocialist, extreme radical with a natural antipathy for money and moneyed men. Ah no. Far from it. Williams is one of the patrician^ of Virginia. His father was one of the great financiers of the old commonwealth. Williams himself inherited the business and has been more successful as a banker and financier than his father. But he is an honest business man, who has sense enough to see that the old days of polite highway robbery are over, and that banks and business must adjust itself to the nore progressive spirit of the times.

And a fighter? I Say just knock a chip off his shoulder—and then hurry to the hospital. I had an opportunity to study him at. the Gold Hill investigation. Personally he is as handsome a man as I ever saw—tall, broad shoulders, deep chest, wonderful patrician head, look ing his breeding, and with a sharp gray eye that denotes tremendous mentality and fighting proclivities, and a tongue that needs no- advocate. That's Williams—a man that big business and big bankers can well be proud of. He typifies the future.
The charges against the bank are of the gravest character and go to the honesty of the officers. The story of the operations of the bank and the use of the money deposited will startle the public. It is not necessary here and now to go into the charges. They have been set forth in the press—if the press has cared to'print'thetnt. Not least in importance as indicating the spirit of the old sharks whose teeth were pulled by the federal reserve law is the fact that Glover denied the right of the government under the law to investigate his bank, to deraahd books and papers. In other word®, it is another case of, "to hell with the law" on the part of that dwindling1 section of big business which loves to quote old Vanderbilt's insult to th&' people, "what are you goin* to do about it." It is interesting to note that the big financiers in New York are "cold" and "astonished" over the action of Glover. No need to be. He belongs to the cave man period.
