The Poisons of Humanity j Have you ever stoppedto consider your ma-1 terial being, your body, u :imply a peculiar sort of laboratory retort containing various chemicals , in combination? Modern science easily proves this to be the case. A large per cent of the human body is composed of water, and water in turn, is made up of

the two elements, hydrogen and oxygen. The bones are of lime and at the base of lime is the element calcium. In the blood are the elements carbon, hydrogen and oxygen. One might go on unendingly analyzing the constituent elements of the body in this way. Until they came to the mind the brain may be analyzed chemically, but the mind, never. That lies in the realm of the spiritual or of psychology, for analysis. And yet our minds sometimes are allowred to destroy our bodies. Thoughts that well might be termed the poisons of humanity are nourished in our brains at the instigation of mind. Thoughts of envy, anger, hatred, fear, of unfair gain, of treachery, of sensuality, all that host of thoughts that make our boast of civilization an empty one, are poisonous. They weaken not only the body in whose brain they find lodgement, but they also weaken all humanity as individual after individual becomes infected with these poisons and in turn passes them on to other individuals. ;: The world has reached a stage of development where clear thinking is demanded as never before. The machine age, a scant seventy-five years old, has brought into existence problems upon whose solution depends the future of the race. At a time when concentrated attention on these problems'is imperative on the part of the people, they find themselves weak in understanding and flighty of fixed purpose. The clear thinking observer sees the people being led hither and thither among the branches of the tree of iniquity. They are very slow in approaching the trunk. They are far in their thoughts and understanding from the roots. They pray to God for release from their burdens and oppressions. Rut prayers from twisted and distorted minds do not seem to reach to God. Dimly they realize that God is equality of opportunity among the host of His other attributes. In their conscious or unconscious prayers, however, they seldom ask for equality. They pray that they may be given the role of oppressors and that equality may be approached by switching privilege from the shoulders of their oppressors to their own. God will not answer such prayers. He knows they come from minds that have absorbed and

transmitted the poisons of humanity. He knows that switching special privilege enables equality of opportunity to be approached, to be reached and to be passed on the way to the rocky haven of inequality of opportunity again. The people are forever jumping at conclusions. Their own or those of so-called leaders. History will show that wrong conclusions outnumber right ones ten to one. Is it any wonder then that humanity's progress is slow? Humanity is its own master and its own slave. Master of its conclusions, it allows itself to be enslaved by the wrong ones. And it takes centuries to arrive at the right one. The world and all that is in it is for humanity's use, on the basis of what each individual's ability and use to his or her fellows entitles him or her to. The world's resources were not meant to be the monopoly of a gilded few or of a drab majority. They are for all and each should be allowed to take out only what one puts in in service and usefulness to all. The world belongs to humanity. It is not meant for a class composed of plutocrats or for a class composed of socialists. Either means monopoly. And monopoly is the sum of all the poisons that plague and torment humanity. Equality of opportunity is the open sesame to the life of real freedom on earth. It is the longsought antidote to the poisons of humanity, the searchings for which pull humanity hither and thither, up and down. Always close at hand, it is our most unattainable treasure because we look for it with our eyes blindfolded by malice, jealousy, envy, unfair advantage, unfaithfulness and the host of other threads that go to make the weave of the cloth we use for the blindfold.

MY EARLY HOME

Here sparrows build upon the trees, And stockdove hides her nest ; The leaves are winnowed by the breeze Into a calmer rest; The black-cap's song was very sweet, That used the rose to kiss; It made the Paradise complete; My early home was this. Tho red-breast from the sweet-briar bush Dropt down to pick the worm; On the horse-chestnut Bang the thrush, O'er the house where I was born; The moonlight like a shower of pearls Fell o'er this "bower of bliss," And on the bench eat boys and girls; My early home was this. The old house stooped just like a cave, Thatched o'er with mosses green; Winter around .the walls would rave, But all was calm within; The trees are here all green again, Here bees the flowers still kiss. But flowers and trees seemed Bweeter then; My early home was this. J. Clare.

M!SS INEZ BOISSEVAIN LONDON, July 21. In defending the violent tactics of the English militants, Mrs. Inez Boissevain, until recently Miss Inez Milholland, one of America's most beautiful and most active suffrage workers, declared that the reason the suffragists of tho United States did noi employ similar methods was because of the love cf fair play cherished by the American men. "Thoi-e who like the methods in vogue in tac American suffrsge cr.mppign better than those resorted to by our unfortunate English sisters may congratulate the American men." said Mrs. Boissevain. "Those who dislike the English methods may blame the unfair attitude of the Englishmen."
