Seems Reasonable.

"Its dreadful queer," said the

Ue fust one3 Harper's Weekly.

HE attitude of the Christian church should be mind, I say SHOULD BE, not necessarily is to disregard all ques

tions of caste. The point where our religion differs greatly from all other great systems of theology, doctrine and

philosophy is that ALL PEOPLE ARE ALIKE in the sight of God. There is no place for caste and caste distinctions in the Christian church ; yet, unfortunately, it is fast growing here in Amer

ica. I know society people of America generally, and I see this distressing tendency becoming strikingly apparent. You will hear women and men tell you not so much whom they know and with whom they associate as those whom THEY WILL NOT OR DO NOT CARE TO KNOW. It is a ridiculous condi

tion here in democratic America. The people who are thus considered "impossible" are not so from any evillife ; they are simply NOT OF OUR SET. Such an idea and such a svstem have no place in this land.

I want all to consider how different this spirit is from that which actuated the character of him whose example we are PLEDGED TO FOLLOW. ! A funeral procession in the Holy Land today is much the same as was that one when our Lord raised the son cf the widow of Nain. It meant & loss of caste, a defilement, to touch a dead person. Yetour Lord not only stopped the procession rather than pass down

a side street, as we would be apt to do, BUT ACTUALLY TOOK THE DEAD" YOUTH BY THE HAND, risking what meant

much to an oriental. . On the other hand, we have a list of thoso we do not care to associate with because they do not belong to our PAR

TICULAR CLASS of society.

Never has there been a time when there was greater need of a

more enlightened and MORE CHRISTIAN way of living. Condi

tions in America are such that it is impossible to follow the ideas of the founders of the land. The early Puritans had certain ideas which

would bo simply ludicrous were we to try to live up to 'them. WE MUST ADOPT NEW STANDARDS. We must study carefully how to assimilate the hundreds of thousands of immigrants who come to this country. We never may do it by building strata of social conditions and holding them in a condition of serfdom or peasantry.

Our Lord recognized in each soul one for whom his heavenly

Father has placed upon him an awful responsibility.

WE MAY NOT DARE TO WRAP AROUND OURSELVES A MANTLE OF SOCIAL DISTINCTION. THE DISCIPLE IS NOT GREATER THAN HIS LORD.

New Scheme of Spelling Makes For ; Carelessness By Profetsor J. F. R1DGLEY, Educator, San Francisco

SERIOUSLY doubt the practicability of the phonetic style of spelling. IT IS NOT A STEP FORWARD. The phonetic spelling if used even in moderation will be one of the

, best aids to the .NATURAL CARELESSNESS of children that could be manufactured, and it's great for the lazy child. My experience has been that there are a hundred children with a natural genius for figures to one with the genius for spelling, and there is nothing aside from vulgar construction that stamps a lack of education as a DEFICIENCY IN SPELLING. When a child has learned to master the stumbling and barrier-lite words of aurora boreali3 and asafoetida it has begun to get a grasp on its dominant brain, and the child brain that works over the victory of putting the proper number of s's in Mississippi has made a stand on an upper plane and will in itself strive for other victories in other directions. So far as the spelling itself is concerned, we might just as well spell asafoetida, asafidita, or aurora borealis, arora boryallis, but then, when it comes to the phonetic system, who's going to stop us from GOING AS FAR AS WE LIKE, and where are we going to have any reward FOR BEING RIGHT? As a socialistic proposition it is a sublime victory for freethinkers, for it makes us all equal in that respc-ct at least. When it comes to the deep question of TRAINING FOR A CHILD'S MIND, I do not see how any one can sanction the thing to any greater extent than to get out a new standard of spelling that we must all take up again. BUT, TO THOSE OF US WHO LEARNED TO SPELL ONCE AND HAVE HAD TO USE THAT LEARNING TO GO CUT AND MAKE A LIVING WITH, IT'S NO IDLE THING TO SPRING AN ENTIRELY NEW LIST OF WORDS ON Jft.

e have no apologies

to offer; no excuses to make. WE made the first real practical visible writing machines ever placed on the market, and we are making them yet WE made them good to start with we are making them better than ever today. TODAY we know how to and do make bttor front stroke wbolly visible writing machines than any competitors can ever hope to equal.

T takes time to prove quality; we've proved it.
