In every church throiiRhout the land
the cominp; weok thoro will ascend the
divine chant of "Peaco on earth, (food
will to men," that sublime dreBin of
twenty centuries. It will bo offered In
frood faith, and will no doubt be devout
y wished for, but when we've said It,
we will forgot It, or perhaps have not
faith enough to practice It. As a nation,
represented In congress, wo will Im
mediately vote some score of millions to
Increase our fighting forces. Groat iron
monsters will be constructed to belch
forth death and destruction. We want
"peace on earth," but suspiciously get
ready to fight. We boBr "good will to
men," providing thoy always do just as
we want them to. We are a christian
nation, but koep always prepared to be
come a savage one. After all the cen
turies of progress, we are yet very close
to the days when the sword was right,
when might was right and the only
true nonce was the peace that came

Blessed be languages and books, say
the philosophers, for they enable us to
transmit to posterity the wisdom of ex
perience. Now If men wore always
modols of prudence this might be good,
but unfortunately thoy are not. And
so it happens that books are not an un
mitigated blessing, rne wisaom oi our
fathers Is there, truly, but so are their
delusions, their rascality, and their
Ignorance. In the horoscope of the
stars astrologors darkly wise once read
the fortune of men, and in the compli
cated criss-cross lines of the palm some
genius discovered the destiny of human
ity. In the books we find li all good
and bad and believe it too. Not all of
us, but a good many more than might
be thought in this scientific twentieth
century. Superstition is not dead,
nor the allies of superstition
mystery and deception. It has been a
long time ago since astrology was voted
, a humbug, but only this year a popular
treatise on this mystery of the stars was
printed and sold by thousands In our
own land, t'aimistry nourisnes even
In Reynoldsvllle and its devotees are
not the Ignorant either. There's many
a fine lady who anxiously views that
"line of lire," and finds here a cross ana
there a break and trembles for the mis
haps that portends.
