';The Sheldon Idea . is a current phrase in newspapers generally now To thosa who have not read "In His Steps," a book published by Eev. Chas. M.Sheldon, the now famous preach er of Topeka, Kansas, it is rather vogue in meaning. The facts in brief are these : Mr. Sheldon wrote a book entitled "In His Ster-s ;" and the prominent idea in the book is "What would Jesus do?" That is to say, it seeks to get the read er to look at everything he does from the probable standpoint ofJesus Christ were he here on earth now engaged in the affairs of life as men are. The book represents the pastor of a fashionable city church suddenly awak ing to the fact that Jesus would not do things as even Christians do them, weie he here on earth ; and at the end of a most unusual and impressive ser- eonaSabbalh day, he called for volunteers from his congregation io join a ciuo wisose memuers ior one 1 i - . . week or month would do things as they believed Jesus would do them. Tne book relates hew there were wonderful changes2 in many places of business the following Monday morniug. Among the volunteers to the club was the edi tor of a city daily paper. The story recites wonderful changes in the man agement of the paper because the edi tor suddenly commenced to run the paper as bethought Jesus would run it. Now the "Sheldon Idea" is ths arrange ment between Mr. Sheldon, the auth or of "IuTIis Steps," and 2Ir. J. K.:Hua sr)n, editor of the Topeka Capital, a daily pa-.er published in Topeka, Kan sas, whereby Mr. Sheldon is to have the entire editorial and business con trol of the paper for a certain period in- the month of March to show his idea of how a Christian daily newspaper should be run, or "What would Jesus do?" as the editor of a secular paper. The scheme has been roundly criti cised by s jine and commended by oth ers. Some say that Mr. Sheldon is un dertaking to assume the place of Jesus Christ on earth, and therefore renders himself and his project rediculous. Such conclusion is erroneous. As we understand it, Mr. Sheldon is only go ing to try to run and manage a daily paper as he believes Jesus would were he in charge of it. This we regard as neither rediculous nor unreasonable; for Mr. Sheldon can Lave his own opin ions as to how Jesus wrould run a news paper without assuming to take the place of Jesus on earth. Others call Mr. Sheldon a "dreamer." Well, one of the greatest and most pow erful addresses we have eycr heard was by Ilev. B. II. Carroli, the great Bap tist preacher of Texas, who gave great encouragement to "dreamers." FREE BLOOD CUED. AN OFFER PROVING FAITII. Bad Blood causes Blood and Skin Diseases, Eruptions, Pimples.

Irwin Hancock in Leslie's Weekly. 01 all the problems that confront us in the reconstruction of the Philip pines the gravest and wickedest is one of our own importation. The Manila siloons, taken collectively, are the worst possible kind of blot on Uncle Sana's fair name. The city's air reeks with the odors of the worst of English liquors. And all this has come to pass since the 13th of Aueuat. 1898 ! With the vanguard of American troops en tering Manila waa the newly-appointed Philippine agent of a concern that Lad shin-loads of drink on the way. He secured offices, warehouses, options on desirable locations ior saloons, and opened business. Some of the proud est and best youth of our land marched into Manila to proclaim the dawn of a new era of honesty, liberty and light It was a day of rare import to the down trodden East. But the saloon keeper sneaked in under the foldsof Old Glory Almost by the time the American sol diers had stacked arms in th9 cltv a score of American saloons were open Swiftly other scores were added to them." The number grew and grew. At the outbreak of the insurrection there were hundreds of American sa loons in Manila. There not being at ch:it time enough American civilians, so disposed, to take up all the licenses, natives were debauched into the traffic, Spaniards engaged in the business, per haps with an ironic purpose of hasten ing the corruption of both American and Filipino. To-day there is no thoroughfare of length in Manila that has not its long line of saloons. The street cars carry flaunting advertisements of this brand of whiskey and that kind cf gin. The local papers derive ther main revenue from the displayed advertisements of firms and companies eager for their share of Manila's drink money. The citv persents to th9 new-comer a sat urnalia of alcoholism. For Manila's climate is one in which drink is pecul iarly seductive and insidious. It is al ways oppressively hot there, and a glass of beer, fresh from the ice, seems to the hot, perspiring and duaty like a draught of nectar. He who over works in the slightest degree finds mo mentary stimulus in whiskey. There is relief though dangerous relief in al cohol, and so American Manila drinks, despite all the warnings of science that m nlnsrue and fever-infested tropical countries alcohol presents the shortest route to the grave. The Filipinos of Manila are rather slow to take to drink. They have al ways heretofore been an abstemious people. Soda and tonics have furnish ed the bulk cf their beverage that was not drawn from the hydrant. Yetslow- ly but surely the natives are veering around to the temptations to be found in the saloon. Five years more of the present saloon reign in Manila will see a sad demoralization of the natives. At present the non-drinking majority of Filipinos leel only contempt for the Americans whom they see lurchingly walking the streets or crouching in sil ly semi-stupor in the cabs on their way to office, home, or barracks. I do not mean this as a tirade against all saloons. It is only a much-nteded protest against the worst features of the American saloon that have crept iutoManila arm in arm with our boasted progress. There is nowhere in the world such an excessive amount of drinking per capita, as amoug the tew thousand Americans at present liv ing in Manila. Nor does this mean that we have sent the worst dregs of Americanism there. Far from it ; some of the best American blood is re presented in Manila. There are men of brains and attainment there, who would nobly hold up our name, were it not for 'he saloon at present. Gam blers and depraved women In both classes, the yery dregs of thi3 and other countries have followed, and work hand in hand with their natural ally. These people are fast teaching the na tives the depths" ot Caucasian wicked ness, and the natives imagine it is Americaism, Go into one of the "better class" sa loons along the Escolta. Here seated at the tables you will find American solders and their non-commissioned, officers. They are ordering fast, talk ing with the thick volubility of semi intoxication. It does not taKe a new arrival many minutes to reach that stage. At other tables are American clerks, merchant?, very likely, and rather seedy-looking speculators. At one or two of the tables you will find army and navy officers with a sprink The One Csy Cold Cure. Cold in head and sore throat cured by Ke mott's Chocolates Laxative Quinine. As easy to Ukea candy, "children cry for them." ling of the better-paid class of govern ment civilian employes. At no table is the drinking slow. Peanut-women and flower-girls pass in and out, and frequently become the target lor lewd sallies. Barefooted Filipino waiters dart about, bearing on trays the stuff that is quickening inebriation. All the time these little waiters are silently thinking on the visible traits of the American-conquerer. On the porch of the "Paris restaurant' overloouing the river are little groups in which th9 commissioned officers of the army and navy are conspicuous. Every now and then a reveler, in un iform or in civilian dress, breaks into hilarious song, or abuse, as the mood seizes him. Laughter or oaths follow and the turbulence grows. Then the little Filipino waiter winks slyly, and says : "El Americano tient mucho vino !" The American has much wine. A simple thing this may appear by it self, but if the average Filipno could be induced to frankly tell what im pressed him as the greatest character istic of the American, he would say tti at it was the American's fondness and capacity for liquor. Over in Santa Cruz, under the very nose ot the police station of that dis trict, are to be foud some ol the most degraded sal oons run by the natives themselvs. Here hard liquors are much cheaper than in other places ; they are correspondingly vile, for Man ila has as yet no standard in the pur ity ol liquora. Here the sort of Btuff is sold that sets men's brain on fire twice as quickly as a better grade of liquor would. Here fights are not un common. So far as mv observation went, I found that the military authorities of Manila were not on record as having done anything to abate this crying dis grace. Indeed, one American officer, fairly high in councils at tha pilace,is the putative head of the concern that is doing the most to encourage and sup ply the thirst of Manila. We tried to civilize the Indian, and incidentally wiped him of! the earth by permitting disreputable white traders to subply him with ardent liquors. Are we to repeat this disgrace, tenlold, as we at present seem fair to do in the Philippines? A Neighbor's Estimate of Dwight L. Moody. National Magazine. From the time of Mr. Moody's birth on 'a small farm near Northficld Feb ruary 5, 1837, until his eighteenth year he gave no special promise of being a successful man. The school davs were not filled with learning, as be loved the open air loo much to give any great attention to his books. His ouly dis tinguishing traits were his ready wit and his intense love for his mother. President Lincoln made his only Sunday school address at Mr. Moody's Chicago Sunday School, and sixty ot the boys were among the first to volun teer when the President issued his first call for troops. Mr. Moody waa conductiug a prayer meeting in a young Men's Chri stain Association convention at Indianapolis when Mr. Sankey came into the hall and took part in the singing. "I've been looking for you for eight years ; you must come with me to Chicago," said Mr. Moody, when the singing was finished, grasping Mr. Sankey's hand. There Avere some practical objections to be disposed of, but eventually the mat ter was settled, and their wonderfufly successful tour of Europe followed. More than $400,000 has been realized from the sale of their gospel hymn- books, all of which has been devoted to church work. Mr. Moody's evangelistic woik which brought Lis name most prominent be fore the public he did not consider his greatest effort. The schools he has established with cbristainity as the foundation will perpeuale his name. Mr. Moody placed great stress on he power of music to arouse t he soul and much of his wonderful power over great assemblages is undoubtedly due to this fact. He was not an eloquent peaker in the ordiuary aoceptanca of the term, but his earnestness and per suasiveness were utmost unequaled. The Iistner never thought of Moody, but of what Moody wa3 saying, and his pictures of t he love of Christ were certainly not paralleled in rostrum or pulpit results. Of the hundreds of thousands of dol lars given to Mr. Moody outright or in trusts all has none into the schools of religious work. When he died, Dec ember 22, 1839, he waj a poor mar, as far as this worId,s goods are concerned but a soul-saving millionaire. What John Wesley was to England Moody has been to America. fZ Vm7'2 yj Bears tfca 9 '13 Kind Y Havs Alsays Bouffii Eiornatnra S T. V 9 . Zl of A LOOK ATLINC0H A Good Thing For Any Young Man, A NOBLE EXAMPLE. BY "GROSVENOR. Written for The Commonwealth. Lincoln Reflections: Whea a great public character is dead, History, like the Almighty, does not look on the outer appearance any longer to judge thereby. Liying, a man may be as gawky in appearance as Lincoln and as ill-clad. Short-sighted little men will call him a buffoon. Dead, as the out er appearance oi nis body laws away from his life-work as a man's outer frame falls away from his soul, leaving both bare to the closest scrutiny. The fur , i . . . ... iner away we get irom tne living days of Lincoln, the clearer is our knovvl edge that a giant every way great lived and worked and joked and sorrow ed when he lived. Io usyoung men in the full hurly burly of life, no matter what our poli tics or what our relation to the Mason andDixon line, there is good for us m a look at Lincoln a ad a thought about him. Mincing fools dressed like ani mated fashion plates lose the lessons from him that are real to some of us To have a great heart is better than to have fine clothes. To have a cheerful word that hides our own heartaches and heart burdens is better than to stalk among men with a look of gleomy and repellant abstraction. To be a rail- splitter with the whole heart and froE. that point up be everything and do ev erything as from the heart is to make deep lines of character in oimelyes even if those outside fail to recognize it. It is better to start low and end high, than to start high by some acci dental parentage and end low. There if more of gain to our inner selves and therefore more of profit to the dear world to be forced into struggling for every vantage point that we gain. Poor rich Lincoln had a face seamed more than any man's with the struggle irom boyhood onward ; and then to deepen those seams and test the metal of him came a burden . such as NO OTHER MAN has ever born9 in the history of this country. He swung to it iikea man ; the keen axe of youth needed neyer to be keener than his sorrowing mind, when there was misunderstand ing and reviling south of him, and treachery and slander and Judas-ki. ses of betryal back of him. He has his re ward ; the petty men ot his day are lost to sight ; the North loves him and the South honors him. His way would have enriched the South by paying for its property ; his way would have en riched the North by making its expen ditures of biood and treasure needless. We shall not, cannot all be piesidcnt, but we can all be right, just where we are. If we are that, what we shall be does not yet appear. To be sincere, purposeful and helpful, without spil ing ourselves with dreams of "if I were this or that or the other, I would do this or that or the other great thing," is to live well and to be Lincoln-like.

Nature, in her efforts to correct mistakes, which mistakes have come from careless living, or it may be from ancestors, shoots out pimples, blotches and other imperfections on the skin, as a warning that more serious troubles (per haps tumors, cancers, erysipelas or pulmonary diseases) are certain to follow if you neglect to heed the warning? and correct the mistakes. Many a lingering, painful disease and many an early death has been avoided simply because these notes of "warninsr have been heeded and the blood kept pure by a right use of JOHNSTON'S SARSAPARILLA. Miss Abbie J. Rande, of Marshall, Mich., writes: " I was cured of a bad humor after suffering with it for five years. The doctors and my friends said it was salt rheum. It came out on my head, neck and ears, and then on my whole body. I was. perfectly raw with it. What I suffered during those five years, is no use telling. Nobody would believe me if I did. I tried every medicine that was advertised to cure it. I snent money enough to buy a house. I heard JOHNSTON S SARSAPARILLA highly praised. I tried a bottle of it. I began to improve right away, and when 1 had finished the third bottle I was completely cured. I have never had a touch of it since. I never got any thing to do me the least good till I tried JOHNSTON'S SARSAPARILLA. I would heartily advise all who are suffering from humora or skin disease of any kind to try it at once. I had also a good deal of stomach trouble, and was run down and miserable, but JOHNSTON'S SARSAPARILLA made me all right." The blood is your life and if you keep it pure and strong you can positively re sist disease or face contagion fearlessly. JOHNSTON S SARSAPARILLA never fails.

N Women Shold Get insured, "Life insurance as managed to-dav. on the endowment plan, for instam?. is at once an assurance and insurance,' ' writes Edward Bok in the Februaiv Ladies' Home Journal. "It is tho best means of saving, because it is compul sory. Iden have found this to be the case, ara women should. At thirty, ior instance, she can, for less than iifiy dollars a year, take a twenty-year en dowment policy of oii3 thousand dol lars, which guarantees her that amount when she reaches the age of fifty. She will not feel burdened by tho annual premium of fifty- dollars. But sha v.iil feel t&e comfort of a thousand dollars when she is fifty. A woman's insur ance for the educatrou of her children is another factor of life insurance wor thy ot her thought, especially if She be a widow. In this way a mother may proyide for tho education of her children in case of her death. If tie custom of motheis insuring their me for their children at the tune of the children s birth could become more general it would be one of the bleius of mankind. For women to insure their lives for the benefit ot the hus bands may well be an open question s-o far as the wisdom of such a cour33 is concerned. But when tho mattsr ot Ufa insurance for women is placed on a basis of self-protection in old ago, for the benefit of children, or as one of the best mean3 of saving money, or oven as a wise system of iuvestment, there cannnot be the least Question of its wisdom." n Hi t fy Funny, These Women.

Sometimes it hannonsi that our customers are the tricksters, and we are forced to acquiesce. To illustrate my point, a man came in the other day, and said he and his wife had been loouing at one of our house?, and he liked it very much. 'I'll biing her in to-morrow,' he said, 'and you want to tell her the house is rented.' 'But it isn't rented,' I replied considerably mystified by his strange request.'

Sure enough he brought her in the next day, and tho trick worked to per fection.

The woman was tickled to death when I announced that I had been successful. DR.
