Say Former Emperor
Does Not Desire to
Go to Switzerland
Vienna, March 21.—Former Em
peror Charles' entourage deny the
report that he has sought permission
to live in Switzerland. One of the
officials said:
"The Imperial couple themselves
have not made such a request, and
their departure is not planned for
the present. The former Emperor
and Empress desire to reside in Ger
man Austria, if there are no disorders
or outbreaks."
A CREAMY LOTION
MADE WITH LEMONS
Prepare a quarter pint at about
the coat of a email jar of
common cold cream.
When this homemade lemon lo
tion is gently massaged into the face,
neck, hands and arms daily, the
skin naturally should become soft,
clear and white, and the complexion
dainty and attractive.
What girl or woman hasn't heard
of lemon juice to remove complexion
blemishes: to bleach the skin and
to bring out the roses, the freshness
and the hidden beauty? But lemon
juice alone is acid, therefore irritat
ing, and should be mixed with orch
ard white this way: Strain through
a fine cloth the juice of two fresh
lemons into a bottle containing
about three ounces of orchard white,
then shake well and you have a
whole quarter pint of skin and com
plexion lotion at about the cost one
usually pays for a small jar of ordi
nary cold cream. Be sure to strain
the lemon juice so no pulp gets into
the bottle, then this lotion will re
main pure and fresh for months.
When applied daily to the" face,
neck, arms and hands it naturally
should help to whiten, clear, smooth
en and beautify.
Any druggist will supply three
ounces of orchard white at very lit
tle cost and the grocer has the lem
ons. In this sweetly fragrant lemon
lotion ladies can easily prepare and
have an inexpensive toilet aid which
perfectly satisfies their natural de
sire for a beautiful, soft skin.

Facing the Facts
By WILLIAM T. ELLIS
The International Sundny School lemon For March 33 la "Inrncl
Warned Agnlnnt Compromise."—Joahua 3311 31i3N.
The first test of international hon
esty is willingness to face and admit
all the facts: Lacking this, a man Is a
negllble quality. No milder words than
coward and weakling will serve to
characterize the person who will not
accept any demonstrated truth. This
is the heresy which oftenest parades as
orthodoxy. No man is orthodox who
goes back on what is true. This pusil
lanimous course may save him some
hard knocks, but It will shrivel up his
own soul, which, after all, is the one
great disaster most to be feared.
The call of the day is the call to
face the facts. Let a man examine
himself, to see where he stands on all
of life's big questions. Stocktaking in
character is not so common as in busi
ness. Even in the commercial world
there is occassionally to be found a man
who will not admit to himself what are
the real conditions: he dodges the act
ualities until, one day. the great crash
comes. The sort of self-defending
temperament always comes up with dis
aster. One reasonable explanation of
the many moral catastrophes in life is
that the victims have simply drifted in
to ship-wreck. Their life was never
steered. They had no definite purposees.
They simply went along, letting chance
winds and currents direct him. Amaz
ingly few persons think things through
for themselves or have a frequent reck
oning with their own life.
Stock-Taking In Life
The wise man occasionally takes time
to sit down and cross-examine himself.
He does as Israel did. under Joshua s
dying instructions. have an under
standing as to where he stands. Taking
nothing for granted, he retraverses the
old ground of first principles. He goes
down into life's deep relationship. First
he renews his own character: Just what
sort of person is he at heart?
Then he sings a song of praise for
his physical well-being. It rarely ac
curs to one to be thankful for good
health until it is gone., Home and
family are themes for meditations and
gratititude : oftentimes a man is so en
grossed in making money that lie does
not find time to entertain the thought
that' in his wife and children he has a
priceless fortune.
A man's neighbors congratulate him
when he is promoted to a five thousand
dollar job. or when he falls heir to a
few thousand dollars. They are not
aware of the greater fortunes that
come in life's spiritual relationships; nor
frequently is the man himself. An in
telligent acceptance of the fact that
real riches are of the heart, and that
life's most important concerns are those
which belong in the realm of the spirit,
would cause many a person to write
down as his greatest asset the old, old
fact of—God.
He is following the wisdom of the
Israelites who reviews his position with
respect to Jehovah. A reaffirmation o
one's fundamental religious belief won
derously dear's life's atmosphere. For
or against, every thinking person owes
it to his own character and capabilities
to decide the question of his attitude
toward God. .
The Idols Under the Floor
A sidelight upon the situation in Can
aan is shed by old Joshua s exhorta
tion. "Put away the gods which your
fathers served beyond the river." In
this plea to serve Jehovah in sincerity
and in truth there is an implication that
Israel was covertly clinging to.the old
idols.
That is understandable. The break
with heathendom on the part of a
Christian 'convert requires a tremend
ous wrench. It is a break with all the
past—with the ideas, fears, superstitions
and associations which have been
ground into his consciousness since
earliest Infancy. The wonder is scarce
ly that so many converts relapse into
the old worship, but that so few do.
Missionaries have told me that some
times converts, instead of throwing
away or utterly destroying their idols,
have put them under the floors of their
houses, so that in case they should ever
want thepj again they would be on the
safe side! In Honolulu I was assured
that, although the Hawaiian Islands
have been Christianized, yet in the very
capital Itself—a modern, civilized Am
erican city—the old idols, rites and
spirit worship are still practiced.
Without going so far away from home
as Hawaii or Japan or Canaan, we may
find in every one of our North American
cities today relics of barbarism and
superstition. I walked down a prin
ciple street 'of a Middle West city, and
I saw a succession of signs of "medium,"
"palmist," "clairvoyants," and other
fortune-tellers. Some big hotels and
steamships have no room number thir
teen. Many adults who have passed
through our modern educational system
will not begin a journey on Friday ; and
the breaking of a mirror, the upsetting
of a salt cellar, or the sign of a black
cat are matters of real concern to per
sons not a few. The reversion of Israel
to Its idols is not without present-day
parallels.
The Competition of Gods
This western world is so monothe
istic in all Its thinking that it often fails
to read the Bible sympathetically. Un
doubtedly there existed, in the Old Test
ament era, in the minds of both the
Jews and in the surrounding nations,
the idea that Jehovah was merely a
national Diety, as opposed to the deities
of other nations. The idea that Jehovah
was in competition with other gods clear-
Ily runs through the history of early
j Israel. Joshua put it badly when he
said, in the words which are the nub
| of this lesson, "And if it seems evil unto
you to serve the Lord, choose ye this
day whom ye shall serve: whether the
gods which your fathers served, that
were on the other side of the flood, or
| the gods of the Amorites, in whose land
lye dwell: but as for me and my house
we will serve the Lord."
| That old competition is settled, so
I far as the Western world goes. It is
still on in the Orient, but even there,
the most enlightened observers declare,
the isssue is clear. As against the an
cient idolatries. Jehovah has won. The
| very name of the gods of Israel's neigh-
I bors are mere matters of antiquarian in
terest. In the expressive colloquial
speech of the day, they are "dead ones."
| Today the nature of the conflict has
j shifted. Now it is between Jehovah and
human selfishness. These are the twen
tieth century idols that dispute Jeho
vah's claim to the allegiance of man.
Here it is that choice must he made l>y
everybody: the issue cannot he evaded ;
deliberate decisive choice must be made.
That was a wise word of Joshua's,
and an instructive on, when he made
choice for himself and his household.
He could not decide for Israel; he did
not have to. No man can do everything.
| It is impossible for any one to set the
j whole world right . But he can get right
i himself, and keep his household right,
j Bolsheviks dream of the tranforma
' tlon of society in the mass and wait for
| that day without mending their own
I ways. The which is folly. It is a regen
erated individualism which is the
world's only hope. It Is the man who
achieves the ablest life for himself who
makes the greatest contribution to his
time. A shallow phillosophy scoffs at
the old religious training which bade a
man save his own soul. While as an
end. that is not sufficient; but is ab
solutely the first essential. The very
most important gift that man can give
the world is a life made over by the
power of God. Only such a one can
make over the mass of lives.
The Bishop of London's Counsel
Joshua called his people back to first
things. He compelled them to face a
decision. By his example and counsel,
pointing out the perils of a contrary
course, and reminding them what Jeho
vah had done for them in the past he
lead them to renew their ancient alleg
iance. He recalled them to the ultimate
spiritual verities which have been aptly
condensed into a modern phrase, "Get
right with God."
This recall to first things is a note
that is being sounded by the world's
religious leaders today. The Bishop of
London never spoke truer words than
those uttered at the capital of the Unit
ed States, when he said: No church on
earth will produce an effect upon the
world if it has not still one further
characteristic. It must clearly and un
mistakably and before all the world
be unworldly itself. Bear with me, then,
when I say as my last word that the
greatest danger of the Church on both
sides of the Atlantic is worldllness.
"It is impossible for the Church to
mix too freely with the world. But. on
the other hand, to run a church as a
man runs a successful business to de
pend upon cleverness and management,
rather than the grace of God, to neglect
prayer and intercession in favor of in
fluence with the, press, to lower the
teaching of the Chilrch or Its moral
standard in order to suit a self indul
gent age is to spell ruin and failure and
shame for the most orthodox Church in
the world. In a voice which still rings
down the centuries Jesus Christ him
self proclaimed: "My kingdom is not
of this world."
Meat Production
Reaches High Record
Washington, March 21. Under
the stimulus of war time demands,
meat production reached the enor
mous total of 23,366,000,000 pounds
last year which the Department of
Agriculture announced 'undoubtedly
never before had been attained in
this country, and certainly not in any
other country by long odds."
"Meat producers met the war sit
uation magnificently in 1918," the
department said. "They increased
meat production in one year by 24
per cent., and thus made possible
an increase of national meat surplus i
in one year by 79 per cent, and an
increase in per capita consumption
by 17 per cent. Notwithstanding
the very high prices of meat in this
country in 1918, and with prices ris
ing above 1917, a large fraction of
the population must have greatly
Increased its meat consumption in
that year."
