SMALL BOY HELPS' HIS DAD'COP NAB BURGLARS IN HOME Harold . 5haw New York. "There's burglars get into the house, papa," shouted four-year-old Harold .Shaw, sou of a po liceman. Shaw, Sr., was just climb ing into his uniform. So he made a rush for the door, leaving his.rev'olver on the table. The child picked it up and followed. The men were getting away via the fire escape when Shaw spied them. He grabbed his revolver from little Harold and nabbed one of the men. "I got one of 'em," he shouted to his son. "Why didn't you git the oth er one?" o d TWO SCHOOLS N "Nobody shall remain away from my-vchurch because e feels he will not be comfortable," says Rev. J. W. Kramer, of Central Baptist Church, Los Angeles,' and so he advises men to take off their coats when the church atmosphere is too warm. He's even going to preach in his shirt sleeves, to set an example. Perhaps we'll -finally have to divide the preachers' work into two schools the old school and the new as we do the doctors'. Making church service perfectly Comfortable will draw some; people. And there are others who go to be made perfectly uncomfortable. We can imagine a large congregation, coolly, calmly and comfortably seat ed -while being led into tlie straight and narrow way by Rev. Kramer. And we have seen Rev. Billy Sunday herding his uncomfortable, scared flocks with jthe aid of sulphuric threats and most irritating near blasphemy. Comfort and candy, so to speak, the. policy, of one school. Hot pitch and a threshing-flail the in strumentalities of the other. The sweet little white pills of the homeo path; the calomel and bleeding of the old time old school'. How alike, in some respects, the policies of cures for souls and for bodies! v o o Lilian Russell is honeymooning in the West Indies. Lily shouldn't use all of the Indies, this time. There may be many more happy weddings in store for Lily, and there are' not too many new places left for Lily to moon in.
