Every religious sentiment and every act of devotion which does not produce a coffespoodina elevation of life is wone than useless. It , is absolutory pernicious, because it miniater to self clecepboo and tend to lower the tone of personal morals. Murray.

A Reason Why

Last Saturday there was a man of national reputation in . Richmond. He slipped in and slipped out again without making more than a ripple in the face of the quiet community. He had known extreme poverty in large cities and has appeared before crowded audiences of earnest men who hung on his words he has appeared before the highest powers of the government and has seen much of men and of cities. ' When he was asked the question that every American citizen asks whether he lives in Podunk or Manhattan "What do you think of it?" he paused. "I wish I could live here You all have time to live here. He was freeh from New York. His talk was of men of national and international reputations whom he knew one might have thought the man happy In what seemed to be his element. Tell me what this May 'Festival is?" It was explained that the May Festival was the most important expression of the musical activity of the town. "Where does the orchestra come from?" He was told that year by year the symphony orchestra had grown from simple beginnings that the members played for the love of the music Itself and not for praise or gain. He was told that the chorus represented not the hastily schooled and raw work of slipshod performance, but the systematic training of people who likewise loved music and knew the hidden meanings of the things they played. "I have beard of nothing like it in the country." Yes, that is what the musical critics say the big ones. "But do do the people themselves appreciate it? Don't they want something with a high-sounding name from out of town? "That was disproved last year but this is the year that will really tell the story." "This Is not only a progressive community it is a good place to live."

We do not wish to preach to people about the May Musical Festlval-lf the people of this town think that they ought to patronize the May Festival that it is an onerous duty that it is one of the burdens which should be swallowed like a quinine pill stuck into a piece of banana why then the quicker the public performance and elaborate preparation of the May Festivals is discontinued the better. The reason is that music is a live spiritual force which grips the soul and has a message it is free and untrammeled. It has little to do with press agents and less to do with didactic preachments. AS well advise a community that it is a public duty to eat strawberry short cake in season or better to wander in a berry patch and pick out the red berries still warm from the afternoon sun those berries that hide themselves from sheer veight of lusciousness. If this be necessary it were Just as well that humanity died from overeating of cabbage and potatoes or sank into a decline from dyspepsia.

The, reason the May Festivals have last year was a brilliant display of real away happy and joyous from the thrill Into every home in the community. So the man was right when he said TO REMEMBER SISTER WOULD PAWN PET DOG Kansas City, Mo., May 23. A 10-year-old boy, somewhat ragged in dress, led a large Newfoundland dog Into the office of the Welfare Loan agency. "Do you-uns loan money here?" he faltered, when Miss Abbie Davison, the clerk, asked him what he wished. cause if you do," ho continued with a gulp, "I'd like to borrow two bits on this here dog. He's a good dog, he s, and his name's Rover " Here the youngster's voice trailed of into a sob. Don't you worry," he said, turning to the dog, "I'll get you back agin, old fellow, cause you and me's got to stick together." When I told him that we didn't lend money on dogs," Miss Davison said in telling of the incident, "the child actually seemed relieved. When asked him why he was in such need of a quarter he stammered., 'Well, you see, my sis's 7 years old and this is her birthday, and I kinder thought that would like to get her somethln fer a present. I seel papers and I could of paid it back real quick.' " Miss Da vison did not learn the boy's name. . "THIS DATE

Ralston, of Pittsburg, wandered into the Rescue mission on First street, Elizabeth, N. J., a physical wreck and without a cent in his pockets. Yesterday he pledged $50,000 to the mission in recognition of the successful efforts of the superintendent, Howard T. Scheckler to make a man of him. He is able to make the gift through the death of his aunt, Mrs. Jennie Ralston, who leaves him more than $300,000. Of his first appearance at the Rescue mission he said: "I felt that I would never amount to anything. I was too proud to ask aid of my relatives in Pittsburg, although I knew they were rich. Nor did I suppose that I would ever come into anything that was theirs. "I didn't have any place to sleep the first night, but on the second I learned of the Rescue mission and decided to go there. I shall never forget the way that Mr. Scheckler greeted me. From that moment there seemed to be a new something in me." DIRTY DISHES. These form one of the most severo tasks in household work. When the)' are stacked up with grease and unused food it is quite a task to the one who has to wash them. Hewitt's Easy Task soap solves the problem. It is a pure, white snap which quickly releases grease and dirt and Saves at least one-half the labor. Pure food without pure dishes is of little avail, and Hewitt's Easy Task should be a welcome occupant of every home. Five cents a cake.

New York's new public library declared by experts to be one of the finest and best equipped buildings of.its kind in the world. was today formally dedicated in the presence or a most distinguished company. The cornerstone for the great marble structure was laid nine years ago. The ceremonies on that occasion were most impressive and elaborate and those of today were fully In keeping with them. The international and local appreciation of the significance of the dedication was abundantly proved by the presence at the exercises as participants in the program of the president of the United States, the governor of the state of New York and the mayor of the city of New York, together with many of the highest national officials , and the heads of the various leading diplomatic corps accredited to the United States. The scene of the ceremonies was the main vestibule, from the central gallery of which President Taft, Governor Dix, Mayor Gaynor and the venerable John BIgelow addressed the distinguished audience. The president delivered the principal address of the day. Mayor Gaynor made a brief speech committing the building, the property of the city, to the library di-recors.-The address of acceptance in behalf of the directors was made by Dr. John L. Billings.

Is modern Renaissance, more or less of the Louis XVI period, with such modifications as conditions and twentieth century needs have suggested. In general, the building is rectangular, with two interior courts. The main stack room occupies the greater part of the rear of the building. This room is 297 feet long and 78 feet wide and contains seven floors. Altogether, thero are about 75 miles of linear shelving, with a total capacity of about 3.500,000 volumes. Immediaely over the stack room and having practically the same dimensions, is the great reading room. A Printing Office. In addition to the stack room and the reading room tbe building contains a complete printing office and binding plant, the delivery room, the catalogue room, technical science reading room, a reading room for the blind, the periodical room, and a number of special reading rooms, reference rooms, reception halls and art galleries. The new building is to be the central home of the Astor library, founded in 1849; the Lenox library, founded in 1870, and the Tilden library, founded in 1887. The first two are reference libraries exclusively, and the third, for financial reasons, never materialized as a separate institution. Contrary to an impression in some quarters, not a dollar of Andrew Carnegie's money has gone into the erection of the new building, and not a dollar of his is to be spent in its maintenance. Mr. Carnegie's donations for libraries in New York City amount to several million dollars, but in accord ance with his wishes an or tms nas been used for the construction and maintenance of branch libraries in various parts of the metropolis.
