How Cleveland Hopes to Make
' Prisoners and Patients SelfSupporting.
By W. Frank McClure.
Cleveland's new farm colony of
1500 acres, on which are being
grouped in separate villages the city
workhouse prisoners, the infirmary
wards and the patients suffering from
tubercular disease, represents an innovation
in municipal affairs that is
bound to attract attention. The population
of this city farm, already
numbering into the hundreds, will ultimately
reach 2000. The present
?rea will probably be increased to
5000 acres when all tha city's penal,
sanitary and philanthropic institutions
shall have been moved from
the busy streets far into the country.
The new plan not only represents a
philanthropy, but also an economy,
one department or institution being
made to serve another, to the end
that the whole is to become self-sup
porting, if the hopes entertained for
it are realized.
The Bite of this new city farm is
some ten miles from the central part
of Cleveland, near the little rural
town of Warrensviile. It is 600 fe3t
above Lake Erie, the highest point in
Cuyahoga County. The air is just
<the thing for tubercular troubles, and

memory of the man who wrote '
the land produces just the crops
which are most needed in the maintenance
of city institutions, while, in
addition to farming occupations for
the prisoners, there are stone quarries
of goodly dimensions.
A mile of electric railway has been
built by the city from the centre of
the farm to an interurban road leading
into town. The farm is also provided
with its own car, which has the
privilege of running over the various
electric lines of the city. This car is
equipped with cots for patients unable
to ride in the seats, and has an
apartment for freight in addition to
the passenger quarters.

has been incorporated in Washington,
headed by some of the most
prominent public men of the nation,
for the purpose of purchasing it, filling

his redcoats there in Colonial days

It has been fifty years since the
old house passed out*bf the hands of

has fallen into great decay. The part
of the town which was once the favorite
residence place of the old families
has become a third-rate riverfront

A Naval Prediction.
The chief constructor of the French
Navy 3s quoted as saying that he is
convinced that the battleship and
armored cruiser must before long be
merged into a single type, the battle
cruiser. This resultant concentration
of great attack and defense with
extreme speed will, he believes, be
found illustrated, say, ia 1915, in a
vessel of 25,000 tons, mounting a
unit battery of high calibre guns and
developing a speed of not less than
twenty-two knots.
The French constructor is also persuaded
that any navy now bold
enough to lay down battleships of
25,000 tons' displacement will by
one stroke secure a tremendous advantage
over all its rivals, because a

The Woman With the Pipe
By WINIFRED BLACK.
A Minneapolis woman is having
the time of her life horrifying the innocent
passers-by by strolling up and
down the main thoroughfares of her
native city smoking a large and en
thusiastic briarwood pipe.
She says she hates to smoke, and
can't bear the smell of tobacco, and
she's just smoking in public to show
the men of Minneapolis that a woman
has as much right to smoke as they
have.
How interesting!
Have women the same right to
smoke as men? Why, of course, they
have.
A woman has as much right to
smoke or to drink, or to chew tobacco
or to use naughty words, or to put
her feet on the table when she talks,
or to stand up in the back of the
theatre with her hat in her hand, or
to cet un and eive her seat In the
street car to another woman as a
man has to do any of these very commonplace
things. Why don't women
do these things, then? For the simple
reason that they don't want to do
them.
Men have just as much right to eat
chocolates, give teas and sit on the
veranda and make tatting as women
have. They don't do it, do they?
Why should they? They don't want
to?that's why.
The American woman does not
want to smoke, my dear Minneapolis
madam. If she did, she'd do it; and
she would not need you to lead her
on to a big victory, either. What
absurd nonsense this idea of a war
for rights between the sexes is anyhow!
If I were a nice, rosy peach, growing
on a nice, wholesome peach tree,
I'd do my best to be as rosy and as
wholesome and peachy as I could.
I wouldn't wor$y about the apple
tree that grew next to me. I'd be a
peach, and I wouldn't want to look
or seem in any way the least bit like
even the prettiest, rosiest apple in the
whole orchard.
If I were a man, I'd be a man and
not an imitation of a woman, and as
long as I'm a woman I'm going to do
the things that women like to do, and
if anybody calls me .*?. downtrodden
slave for minding my .own affairs, In
my own way?why, that's for them
to worry about and not for me.
When I get so that I want to smoke
a pipe I'll cut my hair, put on a pair
of trousers, and begin to look pleasant
at every pretty girl I meet.
Until then, thank you, Madam Minneapolis,
you may smoke your pipe
alone for all of me.?New York

The Bottle Trick.
R. E. H., Springboro, Pa., asks:
"How is it possible to pour from one
and the same bottle various kinds of
liquids?"
Answer.?This bottle trick is performed
like this: Have on your table
a glass pitcher filled with clear water,
to which add a great spoonful of
strong sulphuric acid. Now present
to the company a champagne bottle
and a glass funnel and say to your
audience: "This pitcher contains
water and the bottle is empty." Pour
the acid water in the bottle by means
of the funnel and then produce four
tumblers and one cbnmpagne glass.
In one tumbler havo ooiu-j cochineal,
in the second cochineal and saleratus,
in the third a few drops of Goulard's
extract of lead; the fourth tumbler
must contain a small quantity of a
solution of cochineal. In the champagne
glass put a pinch of saleratus,
and have a fifth tumbler clean. Now
pour some water from the bottle into
the first glass, and it will look like
wine?you may taste a few drops
without fear; pour water fro mthe
bottle into the second glass and it
will have the appearance of porter;
the acid water in the third glass will
produce a fluid like milk; pour some
into the fourth glass and it will have
the appearance of brandy. The fifth
glass of water will remain in its clear
state. Pour the rest of the acid water
into the champagne glass and it will
look like the famous sparkling wine.
After the performance break the bottle
and show" .that it is empty and
contains no secret pompartments,?

Subject: Lying.
Brooklyn, N. T.?Preaching at the
Irving Square Presbyterian Church,
Hamburg avenue and Weirfleld
street, on the theme "Lying." The
Rev. Dr. I. W. Henderson, pastor,
took as his text Ex. 20:16, "Thou
shalt not bear false witness against
thy neighbor.
To cut the text down to four words
and to make it come straight to the
point and our own day, we will rewrite
it: "Thou shalt not lie." In
our time?whether because of the
prevalence of the evil or not, I shall
not attempt to say?the word lie
seems to cause a shudder to run
over the average human frame and
to merit reprimand from many. Plain
words, we are told, are too harsh,
and besides, you know they aren't
good form. The thief, be he weak

age so to do, we will generally name
without the slightest hesitatioa, but
we are slow to give any man the lie.
This desire to be proper and polite
is all very well in its place. Harsh
words are not necessary over points
upon which we may honestly and rea'
sonably disagree. Either or both of
the parties to a matching of ideas
may be at fault. All men are fallible
and prone to error and mistakes.
None of us is infallible and most of
us now and then remember things
that are not so, and make statements
that the facts will prove untrue. The
sharp answer is here very manifestly
out of place. But the common liar
who wilfully, deliberately, maliciously
spreads untruth should be branded
as a liar?and that in hot haste.
The varieties of falsehood are like
the shades of black?endless. But
perhaps in no other place than our
courts of law is the lie found more
frequently or in a more viciou*. and
abandoned form. The unbridled perjury
which takes place in our courts
is really past belief. One would
think that men would hesitate to
swear in falsehoods under cover of
God's name, but any judge will tell
you that hundreds do.
The infamous attacks upon men
in our public life, the lies gigantic
of our political campaigns, started
with malign intent to destroy trust
in a candidate who is beyond reproach,
are unworthy of a self-respecting
people and should be abandoned.
The unfounded attacks upon
the characters of good men, by
i editors who should be above such
things, are not fair either to the attacked
or to the intelligence of the
writers. The stories that arc spread
through financial centres in order to
weaken public confidence in standard
securities or to destroy public faith
in the standing and solvency of individuals,
firms, or corporations, are
pieces from the same cloth. They
are clearly within the meaning of
the text. No desire to give vent to
spite, no satisfaction of a grudge, is
sufficient excuse for any man to endanger
the happiness of other men
nr thp hpftith of his own soul. The
jugglery of figures to prove balances,
trade or profits that never did or
will exiBt, is wrong; and the men
who do it know it to be unmixed
evil.
The number of palpable falsehoods
that are told in the business
world Is beyond compute. The desire
to excel leads many a man to become
exceedingly v careless in his
choice of words. The very advertise
ments of our day are self-confessed
falsehoods. No one believes them
half the time, for experience has
proven the need to take them with a
grain of salt. Palming off something
"just as good" which really isn't;
selling adulterated food stuffs under
the guise of pure supplies; unloading
on the public veneers of all sorts
as solid material throughout; the
publishing of symptoms that may
exist at intervals in the physical condition
of any man, as the certain and
unmistakable signs of the speedy destruction
of our bodies by incurable
disease; these and a hundred more
untruths may be charged against the
liar. The great American sin of falsification
by exaggeration and overstatement
is too rife in our land.
It bodes no good for respect for truth
and it can and does do harm.
In our social, or should I say society,
life we find the seeds of false
hood also. Tbe desire to seem to De
more than we are makes many of
us resort to means that are, at bottom,
false. Simulation of position,
wealth, character or wisdom that is
not ours, is precarious business.
Sooner or later the lie will down us
and the truth will find us out. Before
we expect we may be caught.
Who of us does not pretend to friendships
which never did or will exist?
Those little social catch words that
slip so glibly from our tongues but
I that have no heart behind them, had
just as well be left out of our vocabularies.
The desire to say something
that we do not feel, in order not to
hurt, nakes many of us liars. It is
not necessary to perjure oneself to
escape embarrassing predicaments.
The sure way is to be silent. If you
can't speak the truth say nothing?
or better turn the point of conversation.
Don't be affected, for affectation
is a sham, and anyway the cultivation
of self is best.
Of all the mean and despicable
wnrlH tVio that ifi
LUllJgO 1U lUiO ?? iU I.MV -fw
born of malignant motives is the
worst. The lie, like the opportunity
that is passed, never can be called
back. Spawn of an evil mind, it goes
on a way of sin. Before its scorching
breath good reputations die, and
in its wake sorrow, trouble and distrust
are sure to lurk. Of all the
mean things in this world the lie
is the most contemptible.
Here as in other cases the popular
mind is slow to perceive the truth
behind a sentence. Men are not
quick to carry principles to conclusions
nearly half so extensive as logic
will demand. The point-blank falsehood
with intent to ruin reputation
or to bulster up another lie is usually
what we think of first. Most of

[ go thus far. But is the lie from the
tongue the only lie that does harm.
Is the story of malignant falsehood
which never stops the only sort of
untruth that we should avoid and
disdain? I think not. That knowing
look, or that evasive answer, or that
j suspicion of a smile, which we all
can use and have seen, all three are
j parties to too frequent lies that we
dare not utter. The knowing look
has struck fear to many a trusting I
heart. The evasive answer has caught
away the faith j>f not a few he
| lieving souls. That silent, quiet
I smile has shattered confidence In

to receive that mean and false evasive
answer that leaves so much un- 1
said and so much to be implied. The 1
implication kills her trust. ]
Here is the man who paints to you .
the virtue of a friend. You give to
him that knowing look, as If to say,
"and you, too, trust-him, poor fool;"
and confidence is gone. The dainty 1
maiden with her heart so full of love 1
recounts to you the nobleness of the ]
man she loves, and you give to her
a smirk. Of course you've said noth- i
ing, perhaps you know nothing to (
contradict her view, but you smile
and the light of her life is dimmed.
Lies by consent, perhaps, falsehoods
by implication no doubt they are;
but before the judgment bar of God
they shall be termed "unclean."
&ut thus far our talk hat) been
largely negative. Let us approach
our topic for a moment from the positive
point. The command not to
speak evil of our neighbor when revised
in the light of the life of Christ
becomes a positive demand for strict
adherence to the truth. The senso
of the obligation to be true and to
live true is at the base of all individual
and social life and advance
ment. No man can lie to himself
and be a party to his own upliftment.
To move ahead and into unison
with God we muBt be true to
our personalities. The desire to
obey the pure dictates of a good conscience
is the beginning of Individual
advance. We cannot be untrue to
self and true to men and to God.
The agreement of each man by and
with himself, to be consistent with
the demands of his highest inner
light is the basis of social credit.
T^e-power of credit, that is to say,
credibility or trustworthiness, cannot
be too much remarked. Credit
or the assurance we have of the honesty
and reliability cf individuals or
companies of men, whether firms or
nations, is the foundation upon
which political systems are built. We
could not do business nor conduct a
government for a day were it not for
this great and fundamental principle
of lyiman life: that credit?that is
to say,'honor and truth?must be
maintained. For how long think you
would the fabric of our state remain"
intact were xbiitual faith destroyed
and credit given up? The elaborate
business system to which we point
with pride will be a wretched thing
of the past so soon as personal and
social honesty is removed. Immanuel
Kant regarded falsehood as "the
forfeiture of human personal worth,
a destruction of personal integrity,"
and'another forceful thinker bas declared
that "credit rests on the general
social virtue of truthfulness."
Truthfulness is necessary to the
maintenance of personal integrity.
Integrity is unity with our best
idpnia To sav it short?-neraonal in
tegrity Is the individual recognition
of the necessity for personal unity?
unity in personality if you will. The
man of integrity is the man whose
mind and heart and actions are at
one. His conscience is the arbiter of
his deeds. Disintegration comes with
the denial of the rights of conscience?that
is to say, of the voice
of reasonable truth. The disintegrated
man is a man without integrity,
whose life is a jumble at the
best or whose conscience and deeds
when at their worst are disreputable
and a discredit to self and society. t
Be true to self! Be yourself! Maintain
your personal integrity. Be a I
unified soul growing in me.nutuio
of the Spirit into the stature of J
Christ. . ? , . f, *
Thus only can personal truthfulness
be maintained and social credit 1
be assured support. The best indi- c
vidual is the one whose Integrity is
unquestioned. The only sound governmental
and political system is that
which is rested upon that social (
credit which has its roots in personal 1
unity with the trufii of God.
Moral Inability.
What is the meaning of "dead in
trespasses and sins?*'; We must take
great care in our. use of the illustration
of death in connection with sins!
Physical death, of course, includes
absolute insensibility, or else there
would be nothing to which the evangelist
could appeal and no consciousness
of responsibility.' What it does

that he Is absolutely unable by lys
own unaided effort, without divine
grace, to come back to God. Thus

from slumber, but the bestowal

moral Insensibility and. moral

The Costliness of Low Standards.
It costs less to live up to Christ's
highest standards than to live by anyother
standards yet discovered. For
living is costly, from any standpoint;
but Christ's followers find that the
greatest cost is the least. The highest
cost of doing right is always less
than the lowest cost of doing wrong.
A family that is making the struggle
to do right by living within its
Income finds it a costly matter to give
up many a comfort and seeming necessity
of life. ' But such a family
soon learns that wrongly-incurred j
debt costs more than self-denial, as
those who have tried both plans can
testify. Whatever we pay out in doing
right is repaid to us tenfold.
Whatever we pay out in doing wrong
is a permanent loss.?Sunday School
