Strangled the Tree. A Victoria clergyman had an orange and a pine tree In his garden. One spring it was noticed that the orange tree was drooping, and on digging down he found that the roots of the pine, which stood at some distance, had twisted around the taproot of the orange tree and were strangling It to death. The offending roots were untwisted and cut away, and the drooping plant revived. The tree eventually died. Then on digging down at a greater depth the clergyman found the pine bad attacked the orange root lower down and accomplished Its murderous end. London Graphic. He Wanted a Permanent One. Joshua was buying a fleldglass. "This one." said the clerk, "is Just what you want Its magnifying power is twenty-five times." "No," Joshua replied; "I want to use it oftener than that." Success Magazine. CURIOUS BITS OF HISTORY SLAVERY IN ILLINOIS. By A. W. MACY. Although the Ordinance of 1787 prohibited slavery In the Northwest Territory, a tremendous effort was put forth to make Illinois a slave state. In 1810 there were In Illinois territory 168 slaves. In 1820 the number had Increased to 917. Illinois was admitted to statehood In 1818, and the Constitution provided that "neither slavery nor involuntary servitude shall hereafter be introduced in th f . state." The proslavery men were determined to have this changed, but this could only be done by a convention called for the purpose. A convention could not be held unless a majority of the voters demanded it After a bitter campaign lasting eighteen months the proposition to hold a convention was defeated, August 2, 1824. The vote stood: For the convention, 4,972; against, 6,640. After that the number of slaves In the state gradually decreased until In 1830 there were only 746; In 1840, less than 300, and In 1850 practically none. It Is curious fact, however, that the "Black Laws," designed to "regulate" slavery In Illinois, were not removed from the statute books till after the close of the Civil war. In 1865.

The Young Man In Richmond. The Young Men's Business Club of Richmond was organized as a pretest against the lethargy of the town as It then stood. It Is to be hoped in the combination of the Young Men's Business Club with the Commercial Club that the men In both organizations will continue to keep alive this spirit. The very name of the institution which is about to pass oft of men's lips was an inspiration. The young men are the life blood of the town. The green bark of a tree may indeed not be the most durable of the timber but it is a token of growth. A tree with no green bark Is nothing more nor less than a dead tree and of how much value is a dead tree? For a while the tree may stand as valuable in every respect but how long before that tree begins to rot? Not very long.

The Palladium has cited the case of the New England towns from which there was a continuous exedus all through the last century. The men who went out from those states were the adventurous and sturdy spirits. It was their initiative it was their very contempt for precedent, which has made all the western states more than prosperous. Today the sturdy New England stock of tradition is a matter of tradition it is not a fact. The deserted farms are taken up by the gpawn of southern Europe and the overflow of the shady border land of Asia. The ratio between the women of New England stock and the men who are of the race which we'are pleased to call "American" is very disproportionate. As a result there is no new growth In the New England States and the families are sterile and dying out with a fine lot of traditions and nothing else.

The Chamber of Commerce or whatever form the merger of the two clubs will take Is a mighty good thing. From an economic and efficient view point there is no argument to be raised against the merger of the two clubs. The overhead expenses of the two clubs can be minimized but for all that there is a much more serious problem which should be considered. If Richmond does not remain a young man's town does not increasingly become a young man's town then It will be by fate and not by design if this city holds its own in the wonderful growth in all lines that it has shown in the last few years.

Those people who are in no outward way connected with either the Commercial Club or the Young Men's Business club may wonder that we lay so much stress upon this. Cut the fact of the matter is that there are very few households in which the future of some young man or boy is not seriously being considered. For every live young man there is a place In this world. We are not worrying about the young man. If he is of the right stuff he has nothing at stake because there are communities that are calling for him. It is for Richmond that we are fearing. For if the time ever comes when it can be said that young men cannot rise to control to positions of trust just in the measure of their efficiency then Richmond is a dead town. It will go no farther. Of course this will not immediately become perceptible nothing in this world is sudden there are no real highlights the hand on the clock moves but who can see the hand change that records the hours?

A few years ago the Chicago Tribune published a list of the men who had arisen to fame from Richmond, Indiana. It was a remarkable list. But what If the energy of these men who were enumerated had been spent in making Richmond? What would Richmond look like? If Richmond cannot appreciate and foster young men then the young men will leave Richmond.

AWorldWithout A Bible By Rev.W2Eam Evans, Director Bible Course, Moody Bible Institute, Chicago

TEXT When Mlohalsb. the son of Gemsrlah, the eon of Shaphaa. had heard out of the book: all of the words of the Lord: Take the again anothar roll, and write In It all the former words that were In th first roll, which Jehotaklm. the king- of Judah, hath burned. Jer. 36:11-2. Can you picture a world without a Bible? What a poor world It would be. The art of the world has for centuries found its subllmest subjects in the gospel story. A visit to the world's great galleries of act will corroborate this fact. The most beautiful :4 r 1 -V:V.1 tlonal Gallery in London is Murillo's "Holy Family;" in Paris. Murillo's "Assumption of the Virgin;" in Antwerp, Reuben's "Descent from the Cross;" in Florence, "The Madonna de la Sedla;" In Venice, Titian's "Assumption of the Virgin in Milan, Leonardo's "Last Supper;" in Berlin, Guido's "Ecce Homo;" in Rome, "The Crucifixion," and In Madrid, "The Ascension," by Raphael; in Dresden, the crown of all the worlds' art, "The Sistine Madonna." The influence of the Bible ia equally felt in the realm of poetry as illustrated in Dante's "Vision;" Tennyson's "Holy Grail;" Browning's "Christmas Eve," "Easter Day," "Death in the Desert;" Whlttier-s "Our Master." In the realm of muaic, the influence of the Bible is seen In such oratorios as "Elijah and Paul" by Mendelssohn; "The Messiah" by Handel; "The Creation" by Haydn. Our National hymn, "America," was written by a clergyman. Literature also has felt the influence of the Bible. In a very real sense Germany may be called the home of the Bible, and Germany is the land of books and learning. It is claimed that over 25,000,000 books left the German press last year. It has been said that Ireland, which, in a sense has been deprived of the Bible, is not a land of literature. Indeed, it has been claimed by some that there are towns of moderate size In Ireland in which a book store cannot be found. Ruskln's beautiful gardens would be but barren deserts were It not for the flowers taken from the Bible. Milton's "Paradise Lost" is nothing but the Bible In blank verse. Bunyan in his Pilgrim Progress saw practically nothing that the Apostle John had not seen in the Book of Revelation. Shakespeare's works would be very meager if stripped of all their scripture quotations and references. It is claimed that Carlyle is but a spiritual distor tion of the Prophet Ezeklel. When we turn to the realm of morals, the Influence of the Bible stands out in even stronger relief. A moral geography of the world could be made j by considering the countries that have the Bible and those that do not. What makes Edinburgh better than Constantinople; Toronto better than Paris; i Massachusetts better than Mexico? Mexico was colonized a whole century before Massachusetts. Yet look at the moral and intellectual contrast between Massachusetts and Mexico. What better testimony can we have to the influence of the Bible than Is found in these comparisons and contrasts? What is the difference between the Pilgrim fathers who came to this country to build up and many of the present emigrants who come to pull down the Institutions which are precious to us? Does not the difference lie in this that those Pilgrims came with the Bible In their hands and the fear of God in their hearts, while a large number of the emigrants of touay come with neither of these blessings? Say what we will against the blue laws of Puritanism, they are to be much preferred to the wide open continental Sabbath and the anarchical spirit that too often characterise the emigration of today. Some figures will be interesting and instructive In this connection. In England, a Bible land, there was 1 murder to every 178,000 inhabitants; in Holland, a Bible land, 1 to every 100,000; in Austria, a land which is half and half Bible, 1 to every 57,000; in Spain, a land of no Bible, 1 to every 4,114; in Naples, a land of no Bible, 1 to every 2.750; and In Rome, the city of no Bible, 1 to every 950. Further, in speaking of the influence of the Bible in the realm of morals. It Is claimed that in London, a Bible city, 4 births out of every 100 were Illegitimate; in Paris, where the Bible Is seldom read, 43 out of every 100; in Vienna, where there Is practically no Bible, for every 100 legitimate births, 118 were Illegitimate; and In Rome, where the Bible is practically a forbidden book, for every 100 legitimate births there were 243 illegitimate. Yet In spite of these facts some men today are trying to get rid of the Bible. Should we not count that man a traitor to his God and to his country who would destroy the Bible?

Are you in debt? Most persons are. And with most of us It is a good thing to be under obligation to creditors. A debt is a load that holds one steady. i We are like horses who need not only the load, but the spur. The debt Is tne load; the creditor is the spur. Debt is often a blessing in disguise. It arouses within us the divine force that makes for winning. Balzac would write only when be was in debt And usually he was in debt; therefore his long shelf full of books. We, like Balzac, need sometimes to feel the spur in our flanks. Who can say what treasures of Sir Walter we might have missed had not Scott been under the necessity of paying his debts? Or what should we have had from Goldsmith, who "wrote like an angel and talk'd like Poor Poll" and who was always borrowing? And our own Mark Twain. Mr. Clemens says by nature he was Jazy. But at the age of sixty he felt the spur. His publishing bouse failed, and, though he was not under the legal necessity, he felt morally bound to pay the creditors in fulL In paying that debt what a delightful heritage was left us! It is no disgrace to owe a debt. The disgrace consists in neglecting or refusing to pay. You may reach ail honest man in no more tender spot than to send him his bill marked "Please remit" or to have the collector call more than once. lie wants to pay. It hurts him to disappoint or fail. He will do bis best If the debt is made with likelihood of payment and the desire to meet the obligation it Is a blessing, because Lacking capital, the average man would get nothing ahead. But by going in debt he buys something, buckles down to the job and pays out, becoming by so much a capitalist. It is hard sometimes, but When the load is landed at the end of the road the sting of the goad is forgotten. Walnuts as Food. The ancients held the walnut in high esteem. Mortals could and did exist on acorns, but walnuts were so delicious In taste and flavor, so palatable and nutritious, that they were revered as food only for the gods to dine upon. Modern investigation and modern customs have popularized the uses of the walnut to such an extent that it is now regarded not only as a luxury, but as a food of great nutritive value. A chemical Analysis of the nut shows that it is six times as nutritious as meat. No vegetable or fruitv with the possible exception of the olive, can be compared with the walnut ns a strength giving and fat producing food. All nuts are possessed of elements of nutrition, but the highest in rank is the walnut. Manchester Guardian.

U. C. T. Notes By O. M. C. Tonight is the regular meeting night and three travelers will become regular U. C. T at this time. We learn through Ed D. Self, chairman of the Legislative committee that, through the efforts of the commercial travelers' organizations of Mississippi, the legislature of this state has just passed a law punishing by fine any person taking cr giving a tip and likewise punishing the proprietor of any hotel, restaurant, cafe, dining car, railroad company or sleeping car company, violating the act or allowing it to be violated. A copy of the act is to be posted in all places where tipping is usually practiced and provides punishment in case of refusal or neglect of the proprietors of these places to post the law. U. C. T. organizations in the Southern states are wide awake in every line. At Atlanta. Ga.. the Gideons have opened a rescue mission where sandwiches and coffee are served free to all who apply. This is no bread line arrangement, but a clean neat restaurant with seats for 230 persons. Enthusiasm is always an essential part of success in salesmanship, but the quality must be genuine, artificially is too easily detected to answer the purpose. In fact, it Is coming to a nlace where we can't even "fool part of the people part of the tin."
