and upward, get stung by a profiteer, they change their tune. Ever notice it? Here comes Representative Mann of Illinois. Hear what he says. ‘‘The cig­ arette is the thing that won the war." He denounces “ the insidious movement which has sprung up in this country against tobacco.” We have read of many different things that won the war, but this is a new one. We all know what the cigarette did for the boys that went to war. Some of our postmillennial friends will be pleased to note that Sir Oliver Lodge thinks the earth may continue to exist for 20,000,000 years longer. That surely will allow them ample time to bring in the millennium. A minister traveling. through the West some time ago, asked an old lady on whom he called, what she thought of the doctrine of total depravity. She replied, “ I think it is a good doctrine if people would only live up to it.” Now if church people will show half as much zeal in getting souls saved as they have in canvassing for money, we will soon witness a great ingathering and a revival of power. The following was told recently at a Y. W. C. A. conference: “ A young man on his wedding day was very nervous, but he pulled himself together and clasping his bride by the hand, he made this solemn declaration, ‘With all my goodly words I thee endow.’ ” That’s about what marriage amount's to in these days. Three out of five marriages in Los Angeles come to divorce. Over six hundred divorce cases waiting now. Editor of “ Life” says, “ The world needs reformers more than ever now because there is the work of so many former reformers that must be undone.” The higher critic’s explanation of the doctrine of the atonement is wonder- ful (?) . It amounts to an admission that the Lord Jesus did something or other which somehow or other was in some way or other connected with man’s sal­ vation— just what ¡it is doesn’t matter, just so we think of Him as a beautiful man. All substitutes for substitution
