Civilization is held responsible for it. and civilizing the American Indian is about as hard a J b as taming a wild hyona. A Missouri judge decides that when a trun merely does the chores around the house he is not working. That will hold some men for a while who thinn they are models of Industry. Prominent citizens who are figuring on taking luncheon with the now President will learn with deep regret that Mr. Taft takes only an apple for lunch, and does not leave any coro. Somo conception of the expensiveness of war may be gathered, soliloquizes the Newark News, when it Is known that it cost3 as much money to Are a twelve-inch gun as an odltor makes In two yoars. The statisticians have found that less than 3.000,000 people are earning more than $1.000 a year oach In this country. This should make the man who Is getting $25 a week cheor up and begin to feel aristocratic.

Now. why didn't tho authorities gain their end by requesting the girls not to road those authors? "Women," says Charlotte Perkins Gilman, "is only a part of speech." There are a good many men scattered throughout our broad land, suggests the Chicago Record-Herald, who will insist that Mrs. Gilman is too conservative. Says tho Louisville Courier-Journal: It takes nature two hundred yoars to grow a large white oak troe. and about two seconds is required for an Irresponsible hoy or a tramp to let a campfire get loose in the woods and destroy acros of timber. The King of tho Christmas Islands has given up his crown and forfoitod his claims upon the throne because his wife wants to live In a London flat. Some women Just can't live In any place where there Is no chance to blame things on the Janitor.

THE SUNDAY SCHOOL

Tho Senior Berean Lesson for Sun day, May 30, 1909. BELIEVING AND DOING. -Jnniö.8 2. 14-20. GOLDEN TEXT Faith without works is dead. Jarnos S. 20. 14. What doth it profit, my breth ren, though a man say he hath faith and have not works.? can faith have mm? lfi If a brother or sister bo nakod, ana i;itute ot dally food, 10. And one of you say unto them, Depart In peace, bo yo warmed and lined; notwithstanding yo give them not those things which are nootlful to tili body; what doth it profit? 17. Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, bolng alone. IS. Yen. a man may say, Thou hast faith, and I have works: shew ino thy faith without thy works, and I will bhew thee my faith by my works. 10. Thou bellevest that there Is one God; thou doesl well: the devils also believe, and tremble. 20. But wilt thou know, O vain man that faith without works Is dead? 21. Was not Abraham our father justified by works, when ho had offered Isaac his son upon the altar? 22. Soest thou how faith wrought with, his works, and by works was faith made perfect? 23. And the scripture was fulfilled which salth, Abraham believed God, and It was imputed unto him for righteousness: and ho was enlled thn 'friend of God. 24. Ye seo then how that by works a man -Is Justified, and not by faith only. 25. Likewise also was not Rahab tho harlot Justified by works, when sho had received the messengers, and had sent them out another way? 2G. For as the body without tho spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also. The Lesson Explained. Ono can not carefully 'read this Epistle without observing Its characteristically "Old Testament" tone and language. James writes like one of the old prophets. There is a strong similarity of his language also with that of Jesus, especially with the sayings recorded b Matthew. "The Jxird's brother" certainly speaks like tho Lord. Compare his words about tho Father's good gifts (1.17) with Matt. 7. 11; about hearing and doing (1. 22) with Matt. 7. 2G; about being persecuted (1. 12) with Matt. 5. 10-12; about poor believers (2. 5) with Matt. 5. 3; about serving two masters (1. S; 4. 4) with Matt. G. 24; about idle and ovil words (3. 1-14) with Matt. 12. 3G, 37; about judging others (4. 11) with Matt. 7. 1; about the morrow (1. 13) with Matt. G. 31; about hoarding money (.. 1-3) with Matt. G. 21; about swearing 5. 12) with Matt. 5. 34. The pride taken by the Jews generally In their national position and privileges and orthodoxy has oftun been noted. "We have Abraham to our father." they said, first to the Baptist and then to Christ. What did the Baptist say to them? "Bring forth fruits meet for repentance." What did Christ say to them? "If ye wero Abraham's children yo would do the works of Abraham." Iu this Epistle our attention is called to similar errors Indulged in by the Christian Jews. BoMoving in "one God," they held Gentile Idolators In contempt; believing In Christ, they hold unbelieving Jews in contempt. The spirit of the Pharisee still survived. In word and life these disciples set a bnd example to those upon whom they looked down. Their treatment of the poor, their envying and strife, their evil speaking, their avarice. James sharply rebukes: and In the passage selected for our lesson he goes to the root of Christian experience. "You speak of your father Abraham ; he too believed God; but see what came of It he was ready to give up to God his only son! Your faith Is a dead faith, for It brings forth no fruit. Do the works of Abraham, then we shall see your faith Is a living faith; then It will be to you as It was to him imputed for righteousness; and so you will be Justified in the sight of God and man." Such, iu other words, is James's argument. We know from the Talmud that the expression in Gen, 15 about Abraham's faith being counted for righteousness was a favorite theme for debate In tho .rabbinical schools, which makes the argument all the more pointed. "Why." he cdntlnues, "even that poor Gentile sinner Rahab teaches you this! She believed In Israel's God. Did she sit still? No. she had the opportunity to take God's side by befriending the spies, and she did it nt the risk of her life." The Lesson Applied. A true faith Includes much more than Intellectual belief. The best of creeds we share with devils; but true faith Is more than creed; It Is "with tho hoart" that man belleveth unto righteousness. Faith includes belief In, dependence upon, surrender to God. A true faith will inspire acts of selfdenial. He who has committed himself to God will obey God. Ho who lives completely for God no longer lives for himself. Self-denial Is not nearly so rare a virtue In this world as our common conversation suggests. The mother lives a life of self-denial for hor son; the soldier lives a life of self-dcninl for his country; the student lives a life of self-denial for himself! It Is a similar renunciation of self-indulgence. A true faith will obtain satisfaction and assurance of God's fav" w-' and works endear one to tho Dlvlno Being. If we have Abrahams .a.,.i we shall have Abraham's blessings. Must Suit All Tastes. "My wife wonders why the papers waste so much space on mere news." "What does she read?" "Oh, she read tho weather probabilities, the bargain probnblltlcs, tho marriage notices and tho love story. But an Item about a big bnttle or the fall of a dynnsty looks piilllng to her." Pittsburg Post. The Farmers. There arc almost nine farmers to every professional man In this country.
