The "Brotherhoods” of ten denominations, the International Sunday School Association, and the International Y. ILL C, A. have Joined hands in a plan of work, modem in type, wide in scope ' and embracing . much work not always classed as -re­ ligious. This movement is known as “ The Men and -Religion Forward Movement,” It. is not a ministers’ movement nor is .it a laymen’s move­ ment, but it is a movement of both, t Both ministers and men of the pew • unite, without, special distinction or thought-of difference, to bring about a big moral, social and religious ad­ vance. An editorial recently in the Indian* apolls Bun says: "In speaking of the Men and Re­ ligion Forward Movement we have already expressed the hope and be­ lief that It will succeed, because It seeks to make religion practical in­ stead of theoretical.

Many men, who have not been con­ spicuous in religious w.ork before and magazines of worldwide circula­ tion and daily papers are giving al­ ready an unusual amount, of attention to the Movement because it is. a -new emphasis on vital ‘ and ^practical Christianity. It is new in method and yet retains the old fine spirit of ’ •’.votion, which It translates into « of present-day nped and life. Copyright by Harris & Ewing.

C, A, baa AT ACKS UPONBUSINESS SHOULD CEASE (Cincinnati Enquirer,) It Is remarkable that the volume and value of business In the United States maintain their magnitude in View of the existing uncertainty as to legality or Illegality of immense operations, concerning which up to the past few years there was no question as to their status In the view of the law. We have had nearly ten years now of continued attack upon business forms and business methods, and while ft may he admitted that certain refofms are needed, -yet no one deemed It possible that reform would assume such radical shape, attempt such organic changes or cover the entire field of private business as it is now doing, With so-called reform In municipal­ ities have come heavier charges and additional Costs upon many business men and their business operations, With reform In the states has come no relief to taxpayers, nor lift­ ing of burdens from enterprise, but, Upon the contrary, a searching for assets upon which new taxes can be ltvied Or the former taxes raised to a greater amount. In the nation there -have bden in­ augurated crusades against trades­ men of nearly every degree, from the huckster to tho largest importers, and scarcely a business, from the manufacture of hour to that of the science of steel making, but baa been the subject of scrutiny, investigation, penalization and Official change. For business to hold up to Its pres­ ent •F* Status, under such advorSo action . and drastic proceedings, Is most extraordinary, and the reason can only be found in the soundness of tho basic or fundamental condi­ tions, . *,>, ■. Much has been attempted in the name of reform that has thus far re­ sulted only in Injury, and tho time !« at hand when the hu*ln#*» inter­ ests of the country, the propeuj owners'of'the country, the men who have most at stake in preserving the welfare, of the country, will have to call a halt upon official interference with their private rights' and per> sonal liberty; •Business can not always sustain it­ self under such constant, numerous and unnecessary blows as have been given in the past few years. Enterprise is already paralyzed, cap­ ital is timid, inactive and uncertain. The energies of the most advanced and shrewdest business men of the' orld, those of our country, are placed under ban by official action hnd charges under new and strange decisions. Labor is the final sufferer, and has to endure more, and. for a. longer period, from any disaster to busi­ ness, from Uny error or hardship in legislation that limits business abil­ ity to employ, TLegislation has ‘for ten years been too largely directed against the busi­ ness, against the capital, against the taxpayers of the country, and the in­ jury, the disablement, the weakening of’ these necessary,forces of prosper­ ity, can not fail to have an adverse effect upon the interests.of labor, . Ten years of calm should follow at once the past ten years of storm. 4'H"I'l'4,l ,l"I"l4,!,l'i"l"l'l"l,i"i"l"l’i"i'I-T * AWORDTO THE WISEI It is already apparent that a large number of. one-ideaed men will en­ deavor to be delegates'to *he .com­ ing constitutional convention. The one Idea of some of these will be quite different from the one idea of others of them, but each one of them will press for recognition o f his one idea, to the exclusion, if necessary, of the one idea of each of the others and of the Ideas of all others put to­ gether. . There. are eighty-eight Ohio coun­ ties. The interests, the needs, eyett the whims, of any one of these may differ from those of the other eighty- seven, often, no doubt, unreasonably so. All the same, each has lt.i right to be beard, however loftily the man of the single idea may try to toss it aside. Such being the case of the forth­ coming convention, the danger is that the one-ideaed man—and there will be enough of them and their clamor will even be out of proportion to their numbers—the danger point will be that the one idea will insist ,on being swallowed, even if it makes the people—who are to have the last say In the matter—so sick that they will throw up the whole constitution and let the state wallow on for the next twenty years, certainly, tirid per­ haps for the next sixty, as they have; been doing for tho last sixty. Tho thorough-paced faddist, the typical man of one Idea, will take the risk; he never sees anything outside Of his own narrow range. There are but two Ways to prevent him. One— and the safest—is not to send him. The other is to submit the various one-ideas separately to a vote of the j peoplo, So that if one of them is re­ jected, the rest of the constitution I may not fall. Aside from- them all, * it must and will cdntaln many valu­ able things, things upon which all can agree as necessary to the gen­ eral welfare, and which should not be wholly lost because men differ as to other things—however Important the latter may be.—Akron Times. Joyous Philosophy, Let us learn to he content with what wo have. Let us get rid of mr fale* estimates, set up all the higher Ideals—a quiet home, a dew books full of the inspiration of a genius; % few friends worthy of being loved, and able to love us In return; a simple re* liglon full of trust and hope and love **-and to such a philosophy this vtotli will give u* all the empty Joy it has, —Euvld Swing, WHAT OTHER HOUSE COULD POSSIBLY DUPLICATE OUR PRICES?
