WEAKNESS -^I^ING HEROD was so well pleased with the dancing of his gV daughter, Salome, that he offered her half his Kingdom ^ and one of the saddest tragedies in Christendom followed, and his throne toppled and fell. The people of today are oftimes so well pleased with the vaudeville performance of politicians and the Salome dances of party leaders that they give them the whole of their kingdom, and as a result industries crash, com merce crumbles and pandemonium reigns supreme and the land becomes flooded with “isms” and legislative cure-alls, when the trouble lies in wreak leadership. No country can become stronger than its leaders and weak leaders are the pall bearers of prosperity. SALOME DANCING BEFORE KING HEROD. Let that people take heed whose leaders are under the grip of impulses and whose characters flicker like a wild flame, lest they become overpowered by the knockout drops of human weak ness; their influence belt the State like a temptation, and their precedent stalk over the land like a pestilence.
