Who is the religious man in our day? What is it to be religious? Why do many good men haste to plead not IUilty to the charge of being religious? good men are ashamed of being known as religious why do we continue to maintain institutions of religion and assert that religion is necessary to full- ness of life? So long as we continue to judge reli- gion by its exceptions, and allow the weakling, the coward, and the hypocrite to stand as the exponents and samples of piety, the honest and worthy will re- fuse to be identified with them. Men are not afraid of religion; they honestly desire some faith. But they are afraid o.’ seeming to be unreal or fostering the false. Religion simply is a man's conception of what is highest, noblest, and best. It is the summing up and living out of his ideals. The religious person simply is the one who lives by something greater than the rule of thumb, who has stan- dards. fundamental principles, and who sees some vision higher than things. One‘s faith may have crystallized itself into the person or memory of ideal per- sons; it may sum up all its ideals and excellencics in a being who becomes supreme, dominant over character, de- termining by the beauty and p0wcr of the ideal . THE LIFE OF THE \\'ORSI~IIPER. With others it may be the ideals and impressions, the hopes and visions, are lacking in form of personality; they are simply principles of living. Religion be- comes with such the recognition of a higher law, not given from without, but Springing up within; not written on tables of stone, but clear cut in glowing visions of the beauty of ideal character. On the one side, in religion, are the impressions made on the mind and con- science by these conceptions of the ideal; on the other will be the expression of these in conduct, in definite acts in daily living.

The great ambition of a Burmese boy is to enter a Buddhist monastery as a novice. His entrance is marked with festivities. The aspirant rides to the monastery on a sacred pony and over his head is held a golden umbrella. When the lad arrives at the monas- tery he is received by yellow robbed priests, who take him to one of the in- ‘ncr court-s. These monasteries, by the way, are usually erected at the expense of some pious person desirous of gain- ing :merit in the next world. Unfortu- nately no merit attaches to those who repair the building, and so in the course of time after the builder's death the monastery becomes amass of ruins and is abandoned. ' The schoolroom is in the centre of the temple, and here the boys and young monks are instructed in the rudi- ments of a Buddhist education. The books are written on palm leaves of a Special kind or else on thin strips of ivory. The most valuable book of all is the king‘s waist cloth, which consists If ivory cut amazingly thin and covered first. with black and then with red lacâ€" quer untll'it becomes flexible as a piece . ‘or whalebono. The. material is thj'en cut» into strips eighteen inches long and four inches broad, and the sacred writ? ings are. painted on it with EITHER GOLD OR BLACK VARNIS‘II. Having been received in the monas- icry the lad assumes the Burmese yel- low robe of mourning, abstinence and humility. Ila receives at the same time the eight requisites of life, most im- portant of which is the begging bowl in which to collect~ the daily food from the faithful. The boy‘s head is shaved, and then for a period ranging from a few days to several months he is an inmate of the, temple. learning the sacred writ- ings, waiting on the priests and collect- marching iug his daily bread by Scott's Emulsion strengthens enfeebled Whoever _ 'isions, whoever sees beyond the things THE RELIGIOUS MAN lives toward the best; the irreligious, no matter what church name he may be, through the village and pausing at every door for the cup of rice or other offer- gsmssssseeeeessassse‘esag 63,, It provides baby with the necessary fat and mineral food for healthy growth.

You can’t. hide that kind of religion and you do not have to advertise it. It cannot be imitated. It needs no livery or label. _ it has a power and an aroma of its own. Living up to it lives forever. Death has no dominion over it. One does not have to wait. for councils or churches to begin this religious life. Let him move out toward all things good and true and pure and lovely. If to him the thought of God moves to goodness, if to him the fact of the ideal life of the man of Nazareth is an insplra- tion to live the life above the clay let him seek fellowship with such noble souls. To seek the best, to serve the best, to secure the best for all neither is a difficult nor a doubtful religion. HENRY F. COPE. ,‘_______.___â€"â€"â€"â€"â€"â€"â€"â€"â€"â€"-l ing which every householder is cxpect~ ed to pour into his bowl. Many of the boy novices decide to take the vows (f a priestly life. - Especially attractive to the boy no- vice is the idea of the priest’s funeral which may one day be his own. It. is the occasion of a popular festival and draws pleasure-loving crowds from far and 'near. When the Buddhist priest dies the body is cmbalm-ed and placed in a gor- geous gilded shell, which in turn is deposited in a special building in the temple ground until the begging bowls of the brethren have collected enough for a spectacular funeral. This gener- ally takcs place in February or March after a successful rice. harvest, 'when money is plentiful and the people are .anxious for some little festival after months of hard labor. A big open space is chosen in the temple grounds and tooths spring up with marionette shows iuggiers. llllllnt' theatres, fortune tellers, quack doctors and the like. Most important of all a typically Burmese structure, PAGODALIKE IN SHAPE, is erected round a flimsy framework and then decorated with Oriental art paper and with pasteboard, colored bunting. The lower part of this templ-ellke hearse is filled with combustibles satur- ated with oil, and immediately above this is the platform on which the body of the dead priest rests. The. shell con- !tuining the body is drawn an hour or two previously to the fair ground in an elaborate car decked with gold tinsel. and the coffin is immediately hoisted by pulleys high into the funeral pagoda. The temple bells begin to tinkle, and amid cries of delight. from the crowd sliOwers of coloer rockets are fired into the pagoda, which instantly ink-cs fire and blazes furiously. 'l‘hieker and thicker fly the rockets, until the entire structure is a mass of flames. in half an hour or so nothing re- mains of the pagoda but a heap of ash- es. from which bones are carefully collected and buried with revereiue, after which a pagoda is built over them for amcmorial. _____...;._.______ Paterâ€"“Well. my .boy, so interviewed your girl’s father.

JHEAT INSPECTION ACT. Law Which Dealers in Hogs Should Understand. The custom prevailing among farm- ers throughout Canada of slaughtering animals, particularly swine, upon their own premises and selling the dressed carcasses on the local market, is one which entails more or less loss to the producer. Before the advent of packing establishments, the domestic trade was supplied by the local butchers, who were necessarily compelled to provide for future supplies, and, as a result, the local markets were created. Condi- tions have changed, however, the local dealers no longer supplying the domes- tic tradc, which has passed into the hands of the packing houses, which are. now the distributing centres for meats. Packers can afford to, and actually do, pay higher prices and sell at lower values than the local butchers fo'r rea- sons which are obvious when one con- siders that profits are represented by the by-products. The packers are ad- vtrse to buying dressed cat-cases as they represent smaller profits in by-products: again dressed carcasses are imperfectly handled by- the farmer, the meat in many cases being bruised and unsight- ly, this, as well as improper chilling. being deterrent to good prices. Animals. especially hogs, require scientific chil- ling, otherwise those parts which enter into the process of curing become sour and unfit for market. t’uCkers prefer to buy their meals on the boot, and for the reasons set forth above. are able to pay higher prices for the same. 'In view, however, of the large trade carried on in some parts of Canada, more particularly during the fall and Winter, in dressed pork, as well as in other dressed meats, attention may be directed to one of the l'-C([llll‘01ll01'lis (f the regulations made under the new Meat Inspection Act, which is likely to have a considerable effect on the busi- ness above referred to. The Depart- ment of Agriculture at Ottawa having assumed the responsibility of inspect- ing and practically guaranteeing the healthfulncss of all meals and meat products sent. out by the packing lions: cs, must, of necessity, protect itself by making sure that no diseased ca-rcases a10.pcrmitted to enter these establish- 101118. The most effective way of- pre- venting the entry of such diseased meat lo, of course, the careful ante-mortem inspection provided for by the regula- tions, but in view of the large trade car- ried on in dressed carcasses and of the fact that both farmers and packers have been in the habit of handling meats in this way, the officials in charge of the enforcement of the Act. have decided to admit to the establishments under in- spection. dressed carcascs under such conditions as will enable them to judge with reasonable certainty, as to whe~ thcr the animal. prior to slaughter. was free from disease. Provision has there- fore been made for the admission on inspection, of dressed carcases with the head, heart, lungs and liver held by their natural attachments, such Carcasâ€" cs to be inspected before entering the cstablisl’in'ient and if found fit. for food to be so marked and admitted for pack- ing purposes, while if found to be dis- eased, to be condemned and tanked. This being the case, it is incumbent upon every farmer bringing dressed hogs or other animals to market to re- i‘nember that unless the. carcasrs are dressed in accordance with the regula- tion mention-ed above. nan'rely, with these organs left in their proper posi- tions, it will not. be possible for the rep- reseniatives of the packing houses to buy such caucuses for use in any of the establishments coming under the opera- tion of the Meat and Canned Foods Act. The presenca of the buyers or agents ('f these establishments on. our local markets has always been, at least to some extent. a safeguard against pos- sible attempts by local combinations of butchers and others to depress the price ct dressed meats. and it ‘will be well for producers to bear in mind the new Conditions, and when, for any reason. unable to market their stock on the hoof as they" should undoubtedly do, wl‘ienever possible. dress their hogs, as well as other animals in such a way as to meet the requirements of the new Act. -- ,. .

Rri. lain in the twci'iticth century.” This was laid down at the Church Congress at Yarmouth. England. the other day by the Right Rev. Cosmo (lor- (in!) Long.
