Whether or not William J, Bryan ever nttains the presidency, for which position he h <- been chosen three times by one of the great poli tical parties, lt ls certain he has given to the world about as much good preaching and sound moral doc trine as any man who ever lived. Ills prominence has been essentially poli tical, and his reading and studying have been political and economic; I? t heroic tills he had the training and tiie character that a man never loses, once it is fixed in him, no mat. ter what the field of h'.c endeavor. Mr. Bryan has been something of a puzzle to the politicians of tue coun try, because he has Insisted upon being honest lu dealing with the peo ple, and has stuck to lils convictions regardless of his own political for tunes, when lt might have been bet ter, from the ordinary point of view, for him to have compromised a bit. He lias avoided all apearance of evil. Not the least service that lie has done to humanity ls the turning of lils marvelous oratorical powers into service for the church and for the uplift of humanity. Many times he luis spoken free when he could have had houses n* a dollar a head, lt is true he has probably been bellied po litically by this sort of generosity, but according to his own philosophy he has not calculated the good to himself; for he says, "The man who stops to calculate how much good will come to him out of the good he does will never do any good." A daily newspaper in a Western city took the trouble to cull a num ber of epigrams from the speeches of Mr. Bryan delivered !:i ?ba! city dur ing his recent visit. The Hst ls little less than remarkable when it is con sideren that tho speaker ls a public man and nut a minister. Mach epi gram ls so full of meaning that it could serve as the theme for a great sermon. The list includes the fol lowing thoughts: Love ls the weapon for which there is no shield. A man can live up . > the teachings of Confucius nnd not reach a very high plane. If a man waits until he himself is perfect before helping others, he will never help anybody. We help ourselves when we help others. Missionaries are much less likely to get us into trouble with nothing to give but love than the commercial niau, who gets what he can and is not scrupulous about how lie gets lt. If \\" teach Christ and peace to loreign peoples we cnn protect our selves far better than threatening to whip somebody who does not treat us with what we call proper respect. If we cannot boast that the sun never sets on the American Mag, we can boast that the sun never sets on American philanthropy. lt only one of these foreign mis sion schools sends out one great teacher it will be worth all the money the colleges cost. There are no self-made men. We are what we are made by others. If I can touch one human heart for good I have not spoken in vain. The man who slops to calculate how much good will come to him out of the good he does he will never do any good. A noble life cannot be built upon an arithmetic. Von cannot escape difficulties by avoiding religion. Man has a mind and a soul, and the mind i- greater than the man, ami the soul is greater than tho mind. l.o\e and pe.o,' acompllsh more than force. Mystery doesn't bother us in the dining room it ls only In the church. People who worry most about what tiny cannot understand spend the lea. t time living up to what they cannot help hui understand. A Religious Author's Statement. Rev. .los. H. Fe.-perm in. Salisbury, X.

I., March 31, IDOS.-I have been confined to my room with sciatic rheumatism for the past three months, unable to walk and suffering the most intense pain In my right hip and leg con tinually. Recently a relative sent me a bottle of Noah's Liniment to try, and 1 found it drove the pain wherever applied.

She used half a bottle of Noah's Lini ment and got immediate relief. I would not be without it in my house at any cost. J. S. FISHER, Policeman. SUFFERED TEN YEARS. Point Eastern, Va., June 18, 190S. I suffered ten years or more with a dreadfully sore pain in my back and tried different remedies, but had a return of the pain and soreness till I tested the "Noah Liniment," of which less thr.n half a bottle seems to have made a perfect cure. 1 am much stronger indeed. I think lt is just grand, and 1 do hope all suffer ing with rheumatism and all other pains and soreness will test its cura tive powers, especially the aged, and be healed. 1 used it externally only. I shall always keep it on hand. JIRS. J. D. H1LLINGSLEY. BACKACHE AND STIFF JOINTS. Abbeville, S. C., Jan. 9., 1909. I purchased a 2.1c. bottle of Noah's Liniment of C. A. Milford & Co., and used it for rheumatism, stiff joints and backache, and 1 can say lt did me moro good than any pain remedy I ever used. lt has also been used in my family for coughs, colds, cramp and colic, always giv ing immediate relief.
