Suprtnt When the average Socialist speaks jot the church he becomes hysterical. {To his mind, no man has a right to . jan opinion which differs from this down. If that opinion does differ jfrom the one which he holds for the time being, the holder of it is, ac- }eording to that Socialist, a *'grafter," ia "tool of the capitalistic class," a Seveakling," a "hypocrite." When discussing such an unfortunate, the Laverage socialistic writer will dip 'bis pen in vitriol and figuratively darn him &t the stake. Granting for 'the moment that the man he is abus- {ing 1s intolerant, he himself is too {iutolerant to tolerate intolerance, al- hough he expects to find that vir 'tue in the man whom he is "roast ing." If the reply is made that the Socialist who does these things is not representative of true socialism, then I answer that neither is the churchman who practices similar methods, representative of the church, although there are occas- "tons when both the Socialist and the churchman' may be justified in vigor- ously protesting against the words and actions of a particular indivi- dual who may be on the other side. Just as the Socialists insist that their movement today must not be Judged by the mistakes of their pre- decessors, so the church of today has a right to demand that it shall be Judged by its present attitude toward particular problems, and not by its Past errors. The church has made mistakes. To deny this would be absurd. ' But, it is insisted, the world is on the verge of a crisis, and the church must declare herself with regard to socialism, The world has always been on the verge of a crisis, It ai- Ways will be, because the world is Moving. To say that even the intro- piuction of socialism will at once set- Hie every social question is a sign of egotism. If socialism should ever be apted, it would simply be a step that process of evolution which never end, for the labor gues- Hon will never be settled until the MBL day's work is done. . % - It Das been said that the church sh ld recognize and jndorse social- Mm because there are so many So- Hi There is no particular point ) this argument, for there are prob- as many people in this coun- who are directly and indivectly in the saloon business as there are Socialists. Must the church therefore indorse the saloon, even though some saloon men are just as sincere as some Socialists? It is true that certain churches of today have taken action against so- cialism. Let these churches be held responsible for their own decrees. Soclalists are careful to accept as authoritive only such statements as are Issued by their particular branch of socialism. It should be remembered, aleo, that in practical ly every instance where a church assembly denounced socialism, it had in mind the grossly materialistic and morally antagonistic features which have sometimes found place in the system, just as it has frequently de- nounced the same tendencies in pre- vailing political parties. As a matter of fact, however, what is the real attitude of the church as a whole with reference to the ques- tions involved? One--it recognizes the right of every man to be a Socialist, if he #3 convinced that socialism is morally and economically sound. Two--It recognizes the fact that it is quite possible for a man to be a Christian and a Socialist, too. Three--The church does not stand for the present social system. It stands for no particular social sys- tem. It accepts only so much of the Present system as is in accordance with the principles laid down by Jesus Christ. It insists that these +principles shall be applied to society in all of its ramifications, but it be- Heves that others besides Socialists have both the brain and the heart to interpret these principles. Four--It it not offering the gospel to workingmen as a mere sop, nor because it is afraid that some day they will bring on a revolution. It Is offering the same gospel, with all of its principles, as y frankly met. The prophets of church in every age met with bitterest opposition not from thi enemies outside the church, but from Opponents within. Luther, Wasley, hensiveness of the kingdom of God.

And the ahiel'priests land the Pharisees plainly understood ! {that the iuference was to himself. } | There is today a situation in the {church which will soon demand an honest facing by the church of con- ditions in the social and economic | world. Men and womer are rising ip, making protest against what they consider unjust treatnent and inexcusable conditions among the common people.

It will soon be impossible to take refuge beyond abstract resolutions. And when the church takes definite action on such matters it will find {itself in direct opposition to some corporations and corporation offic- ials, many of whom--one may say | most of whom---are either in the church itself or else who are support- ing the church. | When it comes to a question of zo- | cial and economic jutice, can and | will these churches, and the great | home missionary societies suppont- | ing them, at least in part, come out | squarely in favor of the men, suming, of course, that the men are | right?

Its min- isters muat be ready to speak with- out equivocation, as did the prophets of old. They must say with Nathan, to the individual sinner: "Thou are the man." If the church is not ready to take such a stand, then undoubt- edly it will see the bandwriting on the wall: "Thou are weighed in the balances and are found wanting." If, on the other hand, the church is pre- pared to speak out, then it will ba proclaimed: '"The Kingdom of God is at hand.™ ---- ENGAGEMENT ANNOUNCED. Kingston Girl. Watertown, N. Y., Times. Edgar L.

More peo- {ple will place a waste of seas between them and the lone shielings of the misty isles of the Hebrides this year {than at any time during the past {century . The same inexorable law |of necessity which emptied the rug- ged isles when the kelp industry fail- d, and when the potato famina brought the grisly spectre of want into the black houses of the moor and the hillside, is exacting its pen- alty. ?

WHIG BABYS OWN TABLETS ALWAYS IN THE HOME Once a mother has used Baby's Own Tablets for her little ones she always keeps a supply on hand, for the first trial convinces her there is nothing to equal them in keeping children well. The Tablets are a il dsb thorough laxative which 'regulate the bowels and sweeten the stomach, thus driving out constipa- | tion and indigestion, colds and simpld | fevers' and making teething easier. Concerning them, Mrs. Saluste Pel- letier, St. Dumas, Que., writes: --* have used Baby's Own Tablets for the past ten years and am never without them in the house. They have always given the 18 rs [on the croft when the May lambs come, and the search will be in vain. A few older sons are remaining; the croft and the boats and lines are their fnheritance. Almost every house in Knack, in the Eye peninsula, up past Barvas to Ness and the Bufte and down again to Uig and Locha, is losing a son, mostly a younger son And younger sons are beloved of a mother.
