VERY HEAVY AIB.
From the Indianapolis Journal.
"1 don't understand," said the grocer,
"why tt Is so darn hot when the ther
mometer ain't no higher than It Is.''
"It to the humidity of the air," explained
the schoolmaster. "Makes It heavier and
mora oppressive."
"I wonder If he's right?" ventured the
grocer, after the schoolmaster had de
parted "You bet he's right." said the man with
the ginger beard. "When I was dowa In
Nlggerauger the air was so thick and
muggy that you actually had to pull It
out'n your lungs by hand after takln' your
breath. It was on one of them times that
a- meteor come a-whitsln' along and did
Us level best to hit the settlement which
we was llvln' at the time."
, "And you didn't take It for a warnln'?"
asked the grocer.
"Was llvln' In at the time. It was dowa
In a sort of valley, and when this hers
meteor, which was about as big as small
bouse, struck that there strata of air It
Just simply was so thick that It couldn't
get through, and the darned thing bounced
hacked and up and around, rickotchettlng
about hi the neighborhood for more than
three days. Then a breeze came along
and thinned the air out a Httle and it
dropped." ,
"I wonder what you mean by rlckotchet
tin'T" asked the grocer. "May I presume
that you was makln' a stagger at theword
which Is pronounced 'rlckoshay' 7"
"H may be pronounced thataway In this
here grocery," replied the man with the
ginger beard, "but 1 was usin' the or
iginal Spanish, as I heard It In Nigger
auger." The discussion stood a chance of becom
ing acrimonious, but the man from Po
tato Creek got a heriin bone fast In his
throat and created a diversion.

LEsscn a PATRIOTISO
Cxpoiaded by Rev. G. L. Mslce to the
Sots of America.
EXAMPLE OP CENTIMES AGO
Pre seat bay May Be Compared to David's
Relations to Jadea-Evlls Which
Threaten Patriotism la the United
States Ideas Foreign to America.
One of ttie best patriotic sermon-addresses
of the year was that delivered
last night to Washington Camp, Nj.
343, Patriotic Order Sons of America, In
the United Evangelical church, on Ca
pouse avenue, by the pastor. Rev. O.
L. Ma Ice.
From the relations of Israel to Pal
estine he drew an apt and interesting
comparison, applying to that time of
long ago certain conditions In our own
country during the present day. His
remarks were from Psalms, svl, (:
"The lines are fallen unto me in pleas
ant places; yea, I have a goodly her
itage." He said:
The text Is from the words of a king,
a patriot and a Christian. Hence David
was pre-eminently qualified to use so
energetic language, expressive of his
state In life and which refieoteJ the ex
perience of every Israelite who, as a
people, were the most Illustrious of nil
nations. But however significant these
words are, aa figurative kf Israel's
glory in King David's time, they are
none the less applicable to us as a
people (whose national 'liberties and
freedom are no less sacred than the
natural and spiritual resources of Ca
naan were to the Jews.
David's Language Considered.
Our highest conception of David's
language is by way of comparison. In
our Imagination let us go back over the
pages of history and behold the state
or Israel 1210 years berore uaviu s lime,
when their lives were made grievous by
a heartless tyrant and the servitude of
their Egyptian taskmasters. Look at
their ftrty years In the wilderness of
Arabia, thetr conquests with the heath
en nations. It took many years of
hardships, discipline and suffering to
prepare them to rightly appreciate the
worth of this heritage. And in view
of all this, and that they were now In
undisputed possession of a land whose
equal was not known for productive
ness, and under a system of civil and
religious government far superior to
that of surrounding nations, David as
their king and of th tribe of Judah,
the only tribe that had not lost Its
Identity until "Shiloh come," might well
extaim, "'Mine Is a goodly heritage."
The Bible student never tires pe
rusing that part of sacred history that
relates to Israel's glory and prosperity.
Rut that Is only part of Israel's history.
There Is another phase, though not In
dicated In the text but necessarily a
part of this introduction: Solomon de
clares that "Righteousness exalteth a
nation, but sin is a reproach to any
people." When we acquaint ourselves
with God's law. and upon which was
conditioned Israel's peace and prosper
ity, we do not wonder when we learn
of their apostacy tnat the plowshare
of ruin has devastated the fairest of all
lands, and that Israel's glory has de
parted and over Its ruins Is written,
"Ichabod." Their decline and fall is
as graphic as their rise and prosperity
Is real.
Doe to Bad Influences.
Their degeneracy and overthrow was
due to two causes, vis: Unhallowed
association and contamination. The
first made possible and led to the sec
ond. "When the Lord thy Ood shall
bring thee Into the land whither thou
goest to possess tt, and hath cast out
many nations, thou shalt
emlte them and utterly destroy them."
This was a positive command of Ood.
But In violation of thks as the first
step to their downfall, they were no less
guilty of the second, "Thou shalt make
no covenant with them, neither shalt
thou make marriages with them."
Thus becoming more and more like
them, losing their distinction as a
"holy people." Through intermarriage
and otherwise Jewish blood, love of
God and country was slowly lost; their
patriotism and religious devotion was
gradually displaced by selfish Idolatry
and their heritage fast becoming the
spoil of their enemies, until In Christ's
time they made the humiliating confes
sion that "We have no king but
Caesar."
What Palestine was to Israel, the
United States Is to us; and what Judea
was to David, Pennsylvania ts to every
Patriotic Son of America. A goodly
heritage, handed down from one gen
eration to another. A land for which
our forefathers lived, fought and died.
Every drop of blood shed In Its de
fense adds to Its sacred ness. Compare
it with any other and its equal Is not
found. A land of peace and plenty,
with natural resources sufficient to sup
ply the world's market with the neces
saries of life. With a system of govern
ment excelled by none. Yea, a better
land the sun never shone on than the
land of the brave and free. And freer
people never breathed God's pure air
than the American people. Never an
emblem of any country so beautiful and
expressive as the Stars and Stripes.
The Katlons of the Earth.
Look at the nations of earth: Ire
land, In subjection; her rights denied,
and Germany taxed almost beyond en
durance In order to maintain a large
standing army; England's tolling mil
lions fretting In contrast with royalty
and her rich lords and ease-taking
nobles. "Oh I Glorious America)! her
robes, the people's will, her helmet
shining with liberty, her scepter iaw."
The greatest national pride of every
Patriotic Son of America fs that ithla Is
our heritage, left us by those who lie
sleeping careless alike of sunshine or
storm; In many Instances nothing but
the pine, cypress and tanglowood to
moan a requiem over their unknown
graves. "Sweet be their sleep, unfad
ing their glory, imperishable their
fame." Having within you the same
self-sacrificing principles of love to
God and devotion to country, we may
well hop the future safety of our
republic.
Our danger lies not so much In this
that hitherto our doors were open to
our foreign neighbors (although the
time has come when we need to dis
criminate), but In our conforming to
Ideas that are foreign to American
principles. There la an element com
ing to our shores that has a perverted
conception of our national liberty, and
whose Influence la demoralizing.
Your first duty as Sons of America
Is to emulate the noble principles of our
departed heroes, and to perpetuate
their achievements.' "Coming events
cast their shadow before them." Wash
ington must have foreseen the dangers
to which we are exposed when with a
prophetic eye he looked down the vista
of the ages and said: "Beware of for
eign influence."
' Evils Mors Shameful Than Slavery.
We have evils in bur land today that
are far deadlier and more shameful
than slavery aver was. Look at the
powers of Intemperance, socialism and
anarchy, robbing us of the sanctity of
the Christian Sabbath, tramping under
foot our laws, and seeking to over
throw our free institutions.
In a Aarman paper called the Frelhelt
a few years ago, under an article en
titled "Fruits of Faith In Ood," ap
peared this blasphemous expression:
"Religion, authority and tha state are
all chips from the same, block: to tha
devil with them aH." It was the New
York Freeman' Journal thai laid, in
speaking of our public schools: "They
came from tha devil, and to tha devU
they must go."
But the basest of all evlla and that
which has already corrupted the poli
tics of our land, and ruined the boy of
many a mother's love. Is that hydra
headed monster, Intemperance, and for
whose destruction and crime not a few
praying church deacons and elders are
responsible. I am no pessimist, but I
am fearless In saying that unless these
evils are speedily arrested, our chil
dren will wade deeper seaa of blood
than our fathers ever did, or else be
tinder the band and tyranny equal to
that of the dark and middle ages.
Arouse, ye Sons of America, In your
country's defense! Don't let the ensign
of liberty be brought Into disrepute;
stand by the laws that make tyranny
tremble, and don't sell your American
birthright to any foreign power for a
mess of pottagel Let the Patriotic
Order Sons of Ameilca be a picket
line, every camp a picket-post, and
every member on duty to Jealously
guard our American principles and in
stitutions. .More Than One Evil.
liut don't waste all your ammunition
In lighting only one evil, and In defense
of but one principle at the expense of
another. The first basis and sure de
fense Is our allegiance to Uod, humble
submission to His word and reverence
fwr his Institutions. With these we rise
or fall, regardless of all our literary at
tainments. The means for our country's Defense
are not the musket and bayonet only.
Solomon says: "Wisdom Is better than
weapons of war," and Paul, the great
missionary warrior, says: "For the
weapons of our warfare are not carnal,
but mighty through God to the pulling
down of atrongholds." Cultivate the
American spirit and teach American
principles. This should begin at the
breast of American mothers. In them
lies the possibility of making their sons
malefactors or benefactors.
Next In the public schools, the bul
warks of American citizenship, and last
but not least, keep burning the fire of
patriotism. This Is the chord that
binds ond holds together every other
principle. It Is the web and woof of our
national life. For in the language of
the immortal Scott:
Rreathes there a man with soul so dead.
Who never to himself hath said
"This is my own, my native land"
Love Is the one and chief element of
patriotism; and love Is a divine prin
ciple. It Is said a man will die for the
object at his love. Hut what is better
Is to live for an noble object. Hence
the argument that we can best be pa
triotic when we have divine convictions
of right and then moved to act out
those convictions by the love of God.
Patriotism does not destroy Chris
tianity, but is a part of It. Neither
does Christianity destroy patriotism,
but develops and sanctities it. O for
more holy sanctified patriotism, love
for God, our country and our fellow-men.
