10 mwen rtgy pieties WHAT THE WORLD NEEDS Out from The Vi carage, Stookton-on- Lees, Scotland, there comes the following: letter to me, written in the Christmas season: "I am send ing the enclosed, aa I am sure It. will pain you as much as It has me. I do not know if you wrote It at all, but am quite sure you never meant such a heath enish sentiment to 'influence the world: and at Christmas time, too, when Christ, the God of All, Is in everyone's thoughts. No doubt you will be able to withdraw It before next Christmas. "MARY MARTIN." The "heathenish sentiment" Mary Martin enclosed was a quatrain writ ten by me several years ago. It reads as follows: fio many gods; so many creeds; So many ways that wind and wind; While just the art of being kind Is all the sad world needs. I do not know who Mary Martin Is. Doubtless she is the wife or the daugh ter of the vicar at Stockton-on-Lees. One can only breathe a little prayer or pity and sorrow for the poor souls who are obliged to listen to the theol ogy which emanates from that vicar age. It must be filled with threats of God's anger at all who "fell through Adam's sin," and it must breathe much more of the flames of hell than of the sweet winds of heaven. It must indeed be very old-fash ioned, very unwholesome, very dreary und dreadful theology to have edu cated a woman's mind in such a nar row and bigoted run as Mary Martin's mind shows itself to be in this letter. The quatrain was written because of the consciousness in the writer's mind of the need upon the earth to day of the simple religion of kindness —a religion which, if practiced hour ly in the home, in business mart, in the home, in the social world and in Program For Second Day of Sunday School Meeting New Bloomfield, Pa., May 6. —Fri- day's program of the forty-sixth an nual convention of the Perry County Sunday School Association includes the following interesting features: 8.45 a. m., quiet hour, conducted by the Rev.

Third Street, This City, Suffered Hor rible Tortures For Over Twelve Years and Often Prayed That Death Might Relieve Her—To-day She Is Well, Hale and Hearty and Openly Attributed Her Seemingly Miraculous Cure to Quaker It would be folly to even attempt to describe the terrible pains and tor tures to which Mrs. Anna M. Johnson has been subject during the past twelve years. Hypedermic injections of morphine, that dreadful, dangerous drug, were resorted to for years to re lieve her pains; she had several at tacks of spasms of the brain, which are usually fatal; she actually groan ed in her misery. All of her troubles seemed to emanate from her stomach. She would bloat to Immense propor tions, would be hungry, but oould not eat. She could not describe where or how she suffered most, excepting to nay—my stomach —my stomach. She felt then a continuous gnawing and grinding sensation. From a strong, robust and healthy woman she was Krowin# prematurely old—sick day taler day; —• in misery; all the time. WEDNESDAY EVENING By ELLA WHEELER WILCOX the churches, would banish crime, dis cord and gloom from the hearts of men. The old-fashioned theologies have had their day. They must god. They caused bloody wars: they put upon the torture rack; they burned at the stake; they boiled in kettles of ol); they slowly starved those who would not believe as the leaders of these theological schools believed. Such cruel and loveless religious have done more to bring suffering and sorrow upon the earth than all other causes combined. More blood has flown, more communities been devas tated, more lives have been sacrificed at the command of bigoted minds, In the name of religion, than through greed. lust of power and desire of gain all united. This is a highly spiritual age. But Its spirituality is not doctrinal. Everywhere, In the churches and without the churches, souls are crav ing for the creedless religion; the re ligion of practical kindness; the re ligion of love, hope, helpfulness; the religion of willing service, perfect trust, joyous faith and universal good will. It is only through such a relig ion, nourished In the heart and ex pressed in the daily life, that the latest of the world's Great Masters, the gen tle Christ, will be satisfied when He takes account of the deeds of His fol lowers. Many people are filled with the be lief to-day that the second coming of this Great Master is near. He who said "A new commandment I give unto you, Love one another," Is surely expecting His faithful ones to understand the law of kindness. For just the art of being kind is all the sad world needs to carry out the new commandment. We recommend the following verses to Mary Martin in place of her dreary theologs - : Thinking of Christ, and hearing what men say Anent His second coming, some near day. Unto the Me of me, I turned to ask: What can we do for Him, and by what task Or through what sacrifice can we pro claim Our mighty love, and glorify His name ?

So pitiable became her condi tion at times that she actually wished for death. She applied to the best possible medical experts, spent money for years, endeavoring to bo cured, but alas, all was for naught—she grew steadily worse. Her neighbors, her friend 6 and acquaintances all realized her serious condition. She was told by numbers of people to call and try Quaker, but she had no faith In either, but as she read of one cure after another by Quaker remedies, she finally dropped her prejudice and called at the drug store and obtc !ned a treatment of Quaker Extract and left the drug store with a faithful promise to the Health Teacher to carefully fol low directions and to report results. She again called, this time accompa nied by her husband. lie handed a bottle containing a Whereon Myself replied (thinking of Christ), Has not God's glory unto Him suf ficed? What need has He of temples that men raise? What need has He of anv songs of praise ? Not sacrifice or offerings needs He. (Thinking of Christ, so spake Myself to me.) The rivers from the mountain do not try To feed the source from which they Sain supply. They pay their debt by flowing on and down. And carrying comfort to the field and town. They scatter Joy and beauty on their course In gratitude to the Eternal Source. And thus should we (thlnglng of Christ) bestow The full, sweet tides of love that through us flow Upon earth's weaker creatures. To the less Must flow the greater, would we lift and bless. Christ Is the Mountain Source; each heart a river; The thirsting meadows need us—not the Giver. Thinking of Christ, let us proclaim His worth By gracious deeds to mortals on this earth; And while we wait His coming let .us bring Sweet love and pity to the humblest thing, And show our voiceless kin of air and sod The mercy of the Universal God. Not by long prayers, though prayers renew our grace; Not by tall spires, though steeples have their place; Not by our faith, though faith is glorious— Can we prove Christ; but BY THE LOVE IN US. Mercy and love and kindness; seek these three. Thus (thinking of Christ Myself said unto me. Five Years in Pen For Forger of U. S.
