WORLD GROWING BETTER? I
i
I'rettbyterian Standard. j
This is an old question, but one ;
that recurs to the mind at this!
season when our hands are reach- I
ing up for the bellrope to ring)
out the old year and ring in the i
new. What progress are wej
making, what ground are we j
gaining, what new hope holding
as the silent years flit like noise- j
less spectres and the shadow of
the cross lies larger on the
ground?
Of course the world is irrovviner
better. It is the answer of optimism,
the answer of faith, the
answer of fact. Time was when
sickly infants were exposed to
die; they are tenderly cared for
now. Men were held in slavery,
now the sun shines only upon
the faces of the free. Criminals
were branded with red hot irons;
they are now regarded as human
and given some chance at reformation
and restoration. The insane.
the feeble-minded, the epileptic,
the blind, the deaf and
dumb were once treated as negligible
factors in human society
or regarded with superstitious
fear; today every effort is made
to remedy the defects of their
original endowment and give
them a chance at life and happiness.
Sin is as black as ever, its
complexion never changes. Some
people in the world are as bad as
the worst specimens our degenerate
race has ever furnished. But
the old world itself is rolling out
of darkness into light and in the
sensitizing of the public conscience,
the elevation of the!
moral standard, the broadening
sense of brotherhood, the widening
of human sympathy we see
the reddening of the eastern sky
and the prophecy of a glorious
day.
The world, under the influence
ol' the church, is growing betterin
its morals, in its literature, in
the provision it is making for the
comfort, health and happiness of
the people. Fiction has made;
strides since the dav when rxilite
society saw nothing offensive in
the indecent writings of Swift
and Richardson and Smollet.
Medicine, too, since the days ;
w hen a tourniquet and saw were
all that a surgeon required for
amputation. Last year a million
lives were saved in British India
against cholera alone. In all
London there was not a single
death from smallpox or typhoid
fever. The rate of mortality
along the Panama canal has been
reduced from 170 per thousand
to 8.31 per thousand, and the
mortality from tuberculosis has
been reduced 40 per cent. The
same spirit that taught the "beloved
physician, Luke," is teaching
our physicians to render life
more certain and tolerable.
Think, too, of our domestic comforts
as contrasted with the lives!
of our ancestors only a century
or two ago, when there were no
glass windows in their homes,
and when the smoke curled up
through a hole in the roof? In
all these things do we see no
working of God's spirit, no evi-1
dence of His life and presence?
? ???-Camp
Cole L. Blease.
(Written for The Timed.)
The annual Xmas possum hunt
of the Cole Blease club, of Gold
Mill, was held at their camp in
the India Hook hills near the
Catawba river. The camp is lo- ;
cated in an ideal spot between j
two large hills by a sparkling!
spring. Mr. A. B. Watson, of I
Charlotte, and Mr. S. C. Runkle, j
of Washington, were the guests
of the club. All the members |
xjiTsre present and engaged in the '
hunt, which resulted in 75 rab- |
bits, 16 birds and 4 possums being j
put on the camp fire. Of course, j
the "refreshments" were there
also. S.
Mrs. Cook Tells Truth.
Dexter, Ky. ? In a signed statement,
Mrs. Cook tells the truth
about how Cardui brought back
her health and strength. She
says, 44I could not get any relief,
until I tried Cardui. the woman's
tonic. I suffered more or less
for 10 years, and was so weak
and nervous I could hardly do my
house work. Now I am in better
health than ever before, am
regular as clock work, do not
suffer at all. and gain strength
every day." Thousands of women
have been helped back to health
by Cardui. Trv it.

It is enough to start a bank account with, and if you adopt I
a systematic method of saving, the dollars will pile up ti
surprisingly. Why not adjust your expenses so that
they will not exceed three-fourths of your earnings? J
That will enable you to save a quarter out of l
every dollar. Just figure what such a system
would have done for you had you commenced 1
it five years ago! But, cheer up! It isn't ;
too late. NOW is the time to open the -M
bank account and put away one dol- fl
lar out of every four you earn. ? i .
We welcome your account and will help
you to save and succeed.
