TWISTING THE TAIL OF THE GOLDEN RULE.

The Golden Rule is a good rule, but we often twist its tail to a frazzle. It was laid down as a guiding star to the faltering and wayward footsteps of humanity. But there are many feet in this town that neglect to tread the golden pathway of . suit lias been taught us at the mother knee, preached to us from toe pulpit, fed to us in the schools, declaimed from the lecture platform, and advocated from a thousand other sources. But there are local ears that hear not and eyes that refuse to see. The tail of the Golden Rule is receiving some vigorous twists in thi3 town. Often we are asked by some mer~. chant to preach the doctrine of “trade at home.” We preach it, and it helps to enrich the merchant who made the request. That is good, for we believe in patronizing local institutions—we like to see them grow—we want the money kept at home. But when the same merchant whose money till we have helped to fill sends out of town for his job printing we cannot but pity the iso-

lation of the poor old Golden Rule. Some people make their money in this community, enjoy life in the community, educate their children at the expense of the community, and then buy their goods from merchants who are not in or of the community. —■ ■ —-- It is some .tug at the golden tail. There are some people who want the earth for what they sell and then expec: to receive some of their own purchases for less than cost. And the Golden Rule is helpless—forgot ten—kicked into the discard. A few people make a picture of parading their own virtues and sneering at the frailties of their neighbors. Some want to hog everything In sight, though the less fortunate experience the gnawing pangs of hunger. Occasionally we see a sanctimonious countenance in church while the mind wifliin is devising means of skinning others out of their hard earned dollars. The Golden Rule? Why the poor, decrepit old rule is strangling 365 days in the year. Its coat of gold has turned to rust, and the once sparkling waters of its purity are stagnant from disuse. The Golden Rule? Can you point to a soul in all this wide world who in all things does unto others as he would have them do unto him? Possibly we, too, are twisting the tail of the Golden Rule when we publish this article, for we are telling others of their faults when we have many of our own—which we too often forget. And yet we. repeat, the Golden Rule is a good rule. We may not walk sterwlfastly i accordance with its teachings, but we may at least practice a portion of that which we preach. We may accord to others a slight degree of that which we demand for ourselves. We may even trail along in the shadow of the Golden Rule, though our steps be faltering and our limbs over weary. For we are but human, and no human being of today is perfect. Yes, the tail of the Golden Rule receives may twists, yet it is the tail that never knows disjointment.

AN IDEAL CITIZEN

There is a gentleman in this town, known to us all, who is just about our ideal of a good citizen. He is making his money here, he is raising and educating his family here, and he expects to live and die here. When he has any money to spend he first looks carefully over the advertisements in this paper. If he finds what he wants he goes there and gives that merchant the first opportunity. in everything <he buys he gives the home merchant the preference. He occasionally buys articles from abroad, but they are cases wherein he cannot find that which he seeks in this community. He believes in his home town, and because he does believe in it and intends to continue to live in it he grasps every possible means of advancing its interests by keeping his money in circulation at home. He, to our mind, is the ideal citizen. Would that he were multiplied a thousand fold. For we need more of him.

LOOKING ON

(By Walt Mason.) I like to linger in the Shade, close to the pail of lemonade, and w atc'" the honest sons of toil get busy with the fertile soil. 1 like to see them shock the wheat, out in the blinding glare of heat, the great strong men who do not tire, and all their labors I admire. I wonder at the giant strength that they display, the whole day's length, and wish I had such thews as theirs—l’m soft from rid ing easy chairs—-I envy them the appetite which makes coarse fodder a delight, I envy them the sleep pro found they know when slumbertime comes round; 1 envy them, but do pot flee from my retreat beneath a tree. I often counsel other men tt get back to the soil again, to simnly live and labor hard, and work a\*v their surplus lard. But this soft place beneath a tree is plenty good enough for me. The men who toh with might and retain, who plow Hu globe and reap the grain, receive my earnest, ardent praise, and 1 embalm them in my lays; and I am happy in the shade, with my tall jug -of lemonade.

His Backache Gone. Just how dangerous a bachache, sore muscles, aching joints or rheumatic pains may be is sometimes realized only when life insurance is refused on account of kidney trouble.

GLORYING IN THE CROSS OF CHRIST

1 Corinthians 1:18; 2.-2.—July SO. The Cross of Christ No Longer Preached—Redemption Doctrine Falling Before Evolution Theory The Two Theories Antagonistic—Few Under the Banner of the Cross With Jesgs and the Apostles. ’ “Far he it from me to alary, save in the Cross of our Lord Jesus Christ.”—Galatians 6:14. NONE can dispute that the preaching of the Cross of Christ is dying out Those who still preach it give the impression that at most it means renouncement of sin and the incidental self-denials. Rare Indeed would it be to find a minister in our day preaching the necessity for the Cross of Christ —the necessity for Jesus’ death as the Ransom-price for the sins of the world. Some would say that they have become Christian Scientists, and no longer believe that there is such iP thing as sin or as death; and that hence they could not believe that Jesus died for sins. Others would answer that they have gotten too wise to believe any longer that in the Divine Plan

Jesus’ death was necessary for huma n redemption and reconciliation to the 1 Father. Their view is that the Apostles and Jesus, in setting forth the Cross, were laboring under the delusion of the darker time, which present-day education shatters

under a brighter light. Still others would say that they have become Evolutionists and Higher Critics, that they have adopted the opposite theory to the Bible—the Evolution theory. From the standpoint of Evolution there could be no justice, no propriety of any kind, in a Ransom-sacrifice by a Redeemer. According to the Evolution theory, man is merely developing, and is not yet perfect, not yet ready for trial along perfect lines, but is merely merging from a brute to an intelligent creature. Evolutionists would claim that without any redemption or any interference whatever upon God’s part the process of Evolution will continue until by and by there will be a family of mankind that will reach an aristocracy of wisdom, efficiency and power which will enable them to live everlastingly by their own wits. Small comfort is there 4n this for Evolutionists of today or of the past. If they boast of their children, of the future’ and of the everlasting life to which these children will gradually evolve, they admit that personally they have nothing beyond the tomb; that any future life on their part will be representatively in their children. .As for their parentage, some of them do seem to boast of their ancestry, after all—that they were monkeys, frogs and, earliest of all, simply protoplasm. Significance of the Cross. These theories are the products of human wisdom, and indicate a misunderstanding and neglect of God’s Word. How beautiful is the Cross of Christ as compared with any other! It assures us that God made man in His own image and likeness; and that man’s fall from that perfection to his present condition of demoralization came as a result of disobedience to Divine Law and of the enforcement of the Divine penalty—“ Dying, die.” (Genesis 2:17, margin.) For six thousand years our race has been dying—physically, mentally and morally. With all the experiences of the past and all the education of the present, nobody has hope that our race can be lifted up out of its present unsatisfactory condition back to perfection. All we can do is to combat the|evil in ourselves, combat disease, combat death, and help others along the same lines. But meantime, from the very beginning God had planned the blessings of

The Cross Overhead.

years the world waited for the redemption accomplished at Calvary. For nearly two thousand years the results of that redemption have been confined to a special class, under a special call to be the Bride of Christ—“the Church of the First-borns, written in Heaven." (Hebrews 12:23.) The Scriptures assure us that this selected company is to lie associated with Jesus in the great Kingdom of God, which the Bibl* shows is to roll away the curse from mankind and, instead, bring back favor. The Kingdom cannot come until the Royal Family is ready to take the Throne. Jesus, indeed, has long been ready; but in harmony with the Father’s Plan He has waited and has been doing a work in the preparation of the Church, who are to be His Joint-heirs in the Kingdom. Then for a thousand years the Restitution privileges will be open to the whole world of mankind. It will then be no longer necessary to preach; for all will know the Lord, and unto Him every knee shall bow and every tongue confess. (Jer. 31:34; Phillppians 2:9-11.) All this will come as a result of the Cross.

the Gross had planned that In due time He would send forth Ilis Son, who would die for human sin, “the Just for the unjust,” and thus open up the way for man's return to Divine favor an cl everlasting life. (1 Corinthians 15:21-23.) For four thousand
