The title "commercial traveler" Is the only modern part of the idea, the y ancient bagman lasting until the improvements in travel caused the term * to become obsolete. In earlier years the salesman traveled with his samples in a bag ; strapped to bis horse's back and moved from place to place, and it was not until the passing of the stage coach days that the sample trunk be?-^-aun? the feature of the traveler's out; at - Wnen the Bomb Burst.

Col.?Dean H. Martyn Hart, of the St. John's Cathedral, recently preached a sermon on "Tithing?the Divine Solution of the Social Problem." The text was from Matthew xxii:21: "Render, therefore, unto Caesar the things which are Caesar's and unto God the things which are God's." Dean Hart said: "It surely was no just argument that because the head of Caesar was upon the coin it therefore belonged to him and ought to be returned to the imperial treasury, any more than because the effigy of the king Is struck nnnn the Enelish sovereign that there fore all sovereigns are his property. "You will notice that the Lord hail said. 'Show me the tribute money.' A bystander offered the coin, which lay in the extended palm of the Lord's hand. The Jews have ever been the most precocious of money dealers. Had the Romans permitted them to pay their taxes in all manner of coins, great would have been the loss to the exchequer: therefore a coin was struck, and there are still -?ome of them to be seen, in which alone it was la*. ":1 to pay the tax. This coin had to be purchased from the publican of the district, who looked after his own interests. The 'tribute money' went to Rome, to the imperial treasury. "The man who had produced the coin had already acknowledged his liability and had provided himself with the means of liquidating it. The coin was only of use for the one purpose; that one thing was the payment of the tribute. The questioner had answered himself. 'Fulfill your obligation.' said the Lord, 'and render unto Caesar the things that be Caesar's, and do not forget that the power of Caesar is only the representative of the higher power V whom kings reign, and if you admit the authority of the servant by so much more should you recognize the authority of the Master: render, therefore. unto God the things that are Gods.' What, then, are 'the things of God' which we are required to render unto Him? "If the context requires that the parallel shall be contiuued. and it is in a sum of money that the answer must be given, then the only reply can be that one-tenth of every man's income is 'a thing of God.' Now what evidence have we that this is so and what is the purpose of the law? "The ultimate appeal as to what is truth must be the opinion of the race. If the opinion of all meu could be taken as to the truth or falsity of any proposition, that would be a final determination. When anybody is in doubt of a legal or medical question, thp nniv solution of the doubt is an ap peal to men of the legal or medical professions. 'Counsel's opinion' is taken, or the sufferer goes to a doctor. If it -were possible to extend this natural instinct to the limits of humanity and upon any question of grave import the opinion of all men could be ascertained, then that expression would be as nearly truth as it is possible for us men to arrive at. "The Lincolnian canon is as sure a rule as the most firmly established axiom. 'You cannot fool all the people all the time.' There are. at least, double the number of Bibles in the world as there are all other books put together. If the list of the libraries in the world be taken out of an encyclopedia and the number of their volumes added, it will be found that in all the libraries which possess over 100.000 volumes there are 50.000.000' books, and if we allow that there are as many books in household libraries as in these great public collections, which is making a liberal estimate, we may safely conclude that there are not more than 100.000.000 secular books in the world. But during the last century the leading Bible societies of Europe and America put out more than 200.000.000 Bibles, in 3G0 different languages. The British and Foreign Bible Society turns out of its presses seven Bibles, or parts of the Bible, every minute, day and night. It is, therefore, the opinion of the race that this Book is 'the most valuable tnlng in the world.' as the Archbishop of Canterbury describes it. as he handed a copy to the new-crowned king. "The opiuion of the race is that the Bible is a book of truth: that it is what it professes to be?the revelation of the heavenly Father to the children of men. Now if this be the case, it would be strange indeed if this communication from outside our life did 110: instruct n.; as to the great desiderata of every individual. Let any ore ask himself what would make him perfectly happy and content in this present state of existence. "The reply would he: First, to have a conscience void of offense: next, to have no fear of death, but a looking forward to a glory to be revealed; and finally, to be removed from any anxiety as to the necessities of living. As we should expect, the answers to these essential requirements of life are* given on the very first page o* human history. "In the dramatic story of Cain and Abel the three provisions for satisfying these three fundamental wants rre plainly stated. These two brothers came together on the same day, at the same lime, to the saute place, for the same purpose: there were two I altars and each brought materia! for ! sacrifice. "The essential truth of sacrifice, de- J spite the immense ingenuity which has boon employed to explain it away, remains stamped upon it. Millions of intelligent men have brought an innocent victim to an altar erected to tfyunseen lnu recognized Cod. Putting their hands 011 the head of the victim, tcey confessed the sins which lay a burden on their conscience: they thus killed the sacrificial animal; they burnt part of it and ate the rest of .t. It would be an insult to the iiueiligence of mankind to admit that all the generations of men should, one after another, perform sacrifice in practically the same way. and mean nothing by it. The meaning of its ritual is ?lor.ro nnnn its surface. No sensible man could for a moment believe that the wrongs he had done, and which he regretted and would undo if he could, and was prepared to make what atonement for he was able, he could transfer t a dumb animal by putting his hands on its head and confessing his sins. That innocent animal represented some other Being, who 'could bear the sins of the world.' The only nation of theologians the i world has ever produced kept dear the original revelation. They knew there was "a Lamb of Ood tnat taketh away the sin of the world.' "That (Jod requires of men a tenth of their income, as a tax for the general purposes of the commonweal, and issued this law as one of the fundamental rules for the guidance of human society, is evident from the fact of its wide observance by ancient nations. One Instance must suffice. In V i - .A .. Plutarch's life of the Dictator Camillus. it is recorded that after the taking of the Etruscan City of Veil, the augurs reported from their inspection of the sacrifices, that the gods were outraged. An inquiry was instituted and it was ascertained that the soldiers who had heen conc?rned in the sacking of the city had neglected to dedicate the accustomed tenth to the gods. The senate decreed that the victorious legions should make restitution and that a cup of gold of eight talents weight should be sent as a trespass offering to the Temple of Apollo at Delphi. "The Roman ladies brought, of their own free will, such liberal gifts of jewels and gold that the Senate, to honor them, decreed that funeral orations might be made at the obsequies - * ? U : kUkWA l?*wl Anil* UL WULUfLJ, nilll'U illiucill' III1U VIII.I been permitted over eminent public men. This extraordinary episode proves how rarely it happened that tithes were not paid and how grievous was the sin of omitting their payment. The further history of this incident also proves that the payment of tithes was a world wide institution and carried with it a sacredness which can only be accounted for by admitting that it was a primitive and uuiversally recognized law of God. "Three senators of high rank were appointed to carry the restored tithe, with the trespass offering, to Delphos. On its way the embassy was taken by the Linarians. who were then at war with Rome. But when the governor of the city understood that the rich booty was tithe on its way to Delphos. he not only liberated the Romans, but sent a squadron of his own fleet to convoy them safely on their way. "This dedication at a tenth, for the common purposes of the community, could only have been devised by a mind which thoroughly understood the whole problem of the needs of human society. If it were honestly practiced it would be found just enough to alleviate all social pressure?and it is not a little to be wondered at. that the public eye should be blinded to such an exceedingly simple and easily executed law. which could readily be enacted and as readily executed. Suppose that every citizen comprehended the effectiveness of the law of tithe and voted that it should be constituted a national income tax. what would be the result? "Consider the absolute impossibility of legislating against trusts or combinations of capital. Legislation against the natural processes of trade can never be a suocess. The money getting proclivity is an element in the character of men. which, like other characteristics, varies in different people. Those in whom it is largely developed will accumulate money naturally. If all the wealth of the community were evenly distributed among its individuals it would, in the course of a few years, go back again into the hands of those who possessed the aptitude of making money. The law of God would tax this capability for the benefit of those who do not possess it. and for those who by various disabilities gravitate below the line of comfortable living. "The taxation of a tenth will be found to be that exact fraction which everybody can subscribe without distress. and exactly that sum which will maintain those who from various causes are unable to maintain themselves. All communities have about the same proportionate composition, and the example afforded by this city of Denver will be applicable to any other city mutatis mutandis. "This city is composed of about thirty thousand houses. It will be readily conceded that for living purposes each house must represent a yearly income of $1000. So that the minimum income of this city is $30,000,000. The actual income is probably twice that amount. But see the effect of tithing this minimum $30,000,000. The tithe would be $3,000,000. Now. by actual reckoning, it is found that the income of the 1HT? churches, that is. all moneys gathered for all purposes from the people worshiping in them, amounts to .'ess than $300,000. Last year the incomes of ihe five largest denominations were: The Presbyterians. $30,000; the Episcopalians. $4S.000: the Congregationalisis, S34.(KD: the Baptists. $31.000. and the Methodists. $21,000. So that $350,000 will represent the religious income of this community. The County Commissioners expended oil relief $S0.00O. The four hospitals did not spend in charitable work $.10,000. The other societies which exist for eleemosynary purposes, together with all the private charity of the city, will have their expenditures well covered by $114,000. So that $500,000 represents the religious aud charitable cost to a city of 105,000 people, of maintaining its churches, hospitals and charitable societies. The public school system, which is remarkably efficient, cost $480,000. Thus, for all sorts of charitable relief, all sorts of religious effort, and for public education the city of Denver spent $1,000,000. If tilhing wetv in force the tithe commissioners would have, at the least. $3,000,000 at their disposal?that means to say that the churches might all be free, the hospitals wide open and well equipped; public laundries might relieve the women of the working classes: their food might be cooked at the public kitchens: every man top old to work might be pensioned: the streets might be gardens, where all such pensioners might have easy labor, and every reasonable cause for discontent might be removed. Let the people demand that an inI come tax of a tenth shall be a national levy. The English pay income tax. j why should not Americans? The MorI mons nav lithe, aud they have no poor ' and no discontent, so far as the matter of living is concerned. It is the law of j God. wonderful simple and completely I effective, whereby all social disabilities I may be removed. UXFORTTX vTE FOR SPOOXALL.

Denver Republican. Long Distance Courtships. Sketching one day in Burma, an English artist noticed a man a little distance off glaring straight ahead of him at some object he could not see from his position. The man sat with the same fixed glare the whole afternoon and was at it again next morning. The artist had the curiosity to ask an English visitor what it meant. The reply was: "Oh, he is in love!" And ft was explained that this was their method of courtship. The object of the man's attentive gaze was a girt in a neighboring bazaar. When a young man falls in love, he has to seat himself at a certain distance from his adored one and wait for her to do the rest. If she looks in his direction once or twice on the first or second day. he is wildly encouraged, and if on the third day she nod to him and smiles it is time to go to the parents with reference to the marriage settle ment* Little Girls as Stowaways.
