U . ——u I he Church in Politics INTERESTING SUBJECT INTELLIGENTLY DISCUSSED BY DR. WASHINGTON GLADDEN. L REV. DR. WASHINGTON GLAD DEN, of Columbus, 0., was re cently asked to outline his idea of the func.'ion of the church in its re lation to politics. In view of the fact that he himself went into practical poli tics not long ago, and served his home city in a legislative capacity, his words have more than ordinary weight. The conclusion at which he now arrives is tiiat it is wisest for the church in all its activities to "keep itself free from en tanglement with practical politics;"but, he says,"the church whose membership, including its minister, is not actively at work in securing good government in the community in which it stands has neglected a great part of its duty." He says further, in the Christian Endeavor World (Boston): "The first and most obvious reason why the church should not engage in practical politics is that practical poli- DR. WASHINGTON GLADDEN. (He Thinks Church Should Keep Out of "Practical" Politics.) tics is at present tinner the control of parties; and the kind of strife and con flict which is thus involved would be fatal to the peace of the church engag ing in it and destructive to its spiritual life. If both parties were represented in the church, the church could not favor the policies or the candidates of one party without opposing the other; and the struggle of the partisans to con trol the action of the church would not tend to edification. Thj alternative would be that every church should be a party organization, including in its membership only the adherents of one political party, and then we might look for a lively scrimmage between churches of opposite politics, which would be equally scandalous. It is clear that so long as our political affairs are in the hands of opposing parties Chris tian churches cannot become actively Interested in them." Nor does it seem wise to Dr. Gladden (hat Christian ministers should discuss in the pulpit questions of party politics. He writes on this point: JUDGE HENRY C. IDE. Vermont Jurist Will Recome Vice Goiernor of the Philippines Next .January. Henry Clay Ide, of Vermont, who will eucceed Gen. Luke E. Wright, as vice governor of the Philippines, is now a member of the Philippine commission. H'v promotion will be brought about by the appointment of Judge Taft to the war portfolio and the subsequent pro motion of Gen. Wright to the Philip pine governorship. Mr. Wright has seen service in both branches of the Vermont legislature. He was appointed United States commissioner to Samoa in 1891, and two years later was made chief jus tice of those islands under the tripar tite arrangement between Great Britain, Germany and the United States. He served in Samoa until 1897, when the island group was divided between the three powers mentioned. In 1900 he JUDGE HENRY C. IDE. (Slated for the Vice Governorship of the Philippines.) was appointed to his present office by President McKinley. He is a graduate of Dartmouth college and is 59 years of age. He is recognized in Europe as one of the most reliable authorities on Poly nesian affairs. KHISIOH Are lliuii lflyers. Eagles have been noticed flying at a height of 0,000 feet, and storks and buzzards at 2,000 feet. A lark will rise to the same height, and so will crows. .As a rule, however, birds do not fly at • greater height than 1,000 feet "It is of course conceivable that great moral Issues may arise in which one party will stand for righteousness and the other for iniquity. It came pretty j near to that in the year just preceding the civil war; and there were a good many churches in those days which j stood solidly together in support of the j principles and the candidates of one party and against those of the other, while there were many pulpits from which emphatic teaching was heard which seemed to have a very direct bear ing on politics. We heard in those days a great deal of angry talk about politi cal churches and political parsons. It is unfortunate when a clear issue of fundamental morality is raised between political parties, for in such cases the j churches and their, ministers are bound to take sides. "Such cases are. however, excep tional. It does not often occur that the one party represents virtue and the other vice; and the economic and finan cial questions which divide them are questions with two sides, on which men have a right to differ. The church has j no call to take part in the settlement of j such questions; and, if it consults its own peace and prosperity, it will let them severely alone." What, then, it may be asked, is the proper work of the church? lias it no j function to fulfil in the improvement of j law and the administration of political j affairs? To these questions Dr. Gladden i answers: "Its business is to apply the law of Christ to all the conceri.s of life, and j to reveal the spirit of Christ in the lives of its members. Its hish calling is to j fit men and women for self-government, i to fill their minds so full of the wisdom that is in Christ and their hearts so full of His love that good government shall be the spontaneous and inevitable ex- i pression of their lives. "This means that the teaching of the church with respect to social and politi cal principles shall be clear and author itative. It means that the pulpit shall show men what the law of Christ means and how it works in existing human re lations; that it shall take the great ideals of brotherhood and service and hold them close to the life of every day, so that men may see what it means to be Christians now, in this twentieth century, and in all the business of this complex civilization. . . . "Here the duty of the church ends. These Christian citizens, thus in- 1 structed and inspired, must unite in other organizations to give effect to the truth which has taken possession of their lives. It is not for the church, in its meetings or by its official action, to seek to make nominations, or to elect officers, or to frame legislation; the working out of these principles must be i left to other agencies. Either through the parties, to which they belong or through independent organizations these Christian citizens must exercise their political functions." MARQUIS OF SALISBURY.

An attractive scenic effect may be given to the surroundings of a home by i rockery, planted with a variety of .'eras. There may be arranged t lie dell :ate maidenhair and the wax leaf, dark green ferns, which retain their color all winter, and when the warm south winds lead one's thoughts to the coming spring. Being nearly cut off from the ground water, plants in a rockery will suffer from dryness unless well cared for, and It is well to place it in a partial shado i —on the north side of the house among the pines or arbor vitae, or in some nook protected by maples or elms. , Many wild flowers that love the shade ' will be found appropriate to grace the | rockery, such as anemones, dog-tooth J viole*s and lady slippers. Dark, angular, moss-covered stones from the woodland may be piled up in an irregular way, with moist leaf-mold worked in the interspaces, taking care that the soil mass shall extend to the ! & WMKSI''-h r J TIIE USUAL EFFECT. ground. A few flat stones may be ar ranged to advantage, so as to catch the rain water and lead it to the plant roots, thus aiding nature in maintaining moisture. It will have to be well wa tered at first, until capillary action is established with the subsoil. To give a natural effect to the whole, masses of Etone may be scattered about in a hap hazard way, and planted with beauty of the woods. Too systematical an ar rangement is to be guarded against if the native grace of the home of this class of plants is to be preserved. The editors of the Country Gentle man emphasize the concluding sentence of the above article. As a general thing, they have just one suggestion to persons about to construct artificial rockwork—don't! In nine cases out of ten the result will be something like Fig. 1. An ugly pile of stones, obviously not the arrangement of nature, placed where nobody wants stones either for utility or lor beauty. But of course the effort to secure natural grace and picturesqueness is sometimes success ful. The structure should look some thing Jike Fig. 2. As a general rule, it should not be placed on level ground, but on the side of a slope, bank, or side of a ravine —just at those places where, in nature, beds of rocks are apt to protrude. It ' HOW IT SHOULD LOOK. should be shaded by trees, and the rocks themselves should be partly covered with plants growing in their crevices; climbing and trailing plants are espe cially appropriate. It often happens that roc ks of suitable character may be found already on the spot; and all that Is necessary is to improve what nature has furnished, by the introduction of plants, and by clearing away whatever is offensive. Where the rocks are to be i furnished, they must be large and massive—the larger the better—weigh ing a ton or more. On the banks of a small stream rocks are always inter esting; and a small cascade dashing among them, or a rill trickling down i their sides, in the midst of occasional 1 plants in flower, gives them a very j pleasant character.
