Tala HcaadluavUo mythology waa a
beautiful aod fascinating religion aod
'be Horae men. Including Uie Daata
and Hwedee. bettered In It aaploualy as
we believe la oar btbte aud Cbristraal
ty. Indeed It took centuries to over
throw it aod plant Christianity there
For oeuturlra it held away over all
Germany and even tu this day all
Christendom uses the names of lira days
of the week that rams down from the
None mac. (or Wednesday waa Wodaa
day,aad Thursday waa Thoreday. Thor
waa Woden’s eon tad waa the god of
tba clouds. When be wished to make
U tbaader aod abate tb« rain out
of the heavens betook two great taoua
talna, one In eeoli band, aod clapped
them together. Friday waa Fryga day.
Fryga waa Wodau’a wUe. Jutt aw we
got tba names of the moo lbs from the
Roman mythology aad we got the con
sultations In the heavens from tba
Egyptian mythology and It remains un
changed to Ibis day. But I wish tba
young people to know and remember
that la all mythologies their religion
wu founded upon a faith that truth
nod Justice and virtue moat prevail
over aril. The good ware rewarded
and the evil were punished, not only
In this world bat in the world to come.
The ditereooe Is that our religion la
rounded upon loya and mercy rather
than Justine and we have bat one God
Instead of a hundred.
Now It eeeme Unit Pluto aod Kap
luns. after they bad whipped ibe
Titans proceeded at once to divide
their grant domain. Jupiter waa tba
oldest and smartest and ao ba gars
the aaas to Naptune and hades to Pluto
and kept baavao for himaalf. Kmart

time. The spirits of Uia dead, both

Imdaa until Plntoconclnded to as pa rata
the repentant and incurable one* for
fear they would usurp his kingdom aod
ao bo established a hall aad nailed It
Tartarus and abut up all tba hardest
cm see therein.
New riuto married a daughter of
Ceres aad aba bad aaou named Plates.
He waa the god of wealth and that la
wham U>a word plutocracy came from.
Our millionaires belong to It. Ho It
seams that tba god of money Is a
brother-lo-law to Um god of bail.
Pretty close kin and dangerous, but It
la awarding to scripture, for It aaya
that tba love of money is the root of
all evil’’ and ‘It la easier for a camel
to go through the eye of a needle than
for a rteto man to go to heaven." New
this Plotua began to give bts riche* to
the good only, but Japltar didn’t like
that aod at rook him blind to that ba
ooddat tall one maa from another
aad an ha gropes hta way about slowly
till ba fled* a man. Than be gives
him a pile ef mousy eon suddenly opens
wings aod flies away.

ture aaya, "Rioha* taka wings and fly
away.”
