Money Back If It Doesn’t
Don't say, “I've read all that before"
—just go to your dealer right away, lay
down 50c and say, "I want a bottle of
that PARISIAN SAGE that so many
sensible people are using.” Then take
it homo and use it as directed and then
if you are not satisfied that it is just as
advertised take back the empty bottle
and your money will be refunded,
"Vri tty risky offer," you’ll say; not at
ers know just what Parisian
SAGE will do and h ive the promise of
the American makers, the Giroux Mfg
Co. of Buffalo. N. Y., that they will back
him up in his strong guarantee. Pretty
fair and square offer, isn’t it?
Mrs. J. G. Franklin, Fulton, Mo.,
writes: SAGE eradicates
dandruff, cleans the scalp and makes
the iipir fluffy and beautiful; also is a
good hair grower. 1 shall continue to
use it as long as it gives such perfect
satisfaction."
Ask for PARISIAN SAGE Hair Tonic
and firmly refuse substi; utes. The girl

age. and your druggist will tell you that
Parisati Sage Is a splendid hail- dress

THE LAW
“On These Two
Commandments
The Whole Law Hangeth”
A lawyer asked
“Master, which is the great commandment in the law?’’
Jesus answered: _
“Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart and with all thy soul and
with all thy mind.
“This is the great and first commandment.
“And a second like unto it is this, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.
“On these two commandments the whole law hangeth.’’
Love is more than feeling.
It is action—conduct.
Jesus best defined it when He said:
“All things, therefore, whatsoever ye would that men should do unto you, even
so do ye also unto them.”
THIS IS THE BASIS OF ALL OF OUR LAWS.
Man is a mixture of good and evil; in him generosity and kindness are mingled
with selfishness, lust and greed; at times the evil predominates, and, if uncontrolled
works havoc by causing one to do to another that which he would not have others do
to himself.
For this reason, in moments of sane deliberation, unswayed by passion, fanati
cism, lust, or greed, civilized men recognizing the nature of men, frame and adopt
laws to insure both to the weakest and to the strongest members of society the jus
tice and mercy which every man would have others give to him—to compel men, re
gardless of their desires, to deal rightly with one another.
And those qualities, which make necessary the enactment of laws, render it un
wise to leave to the discretion of public officials their enforcement or non-enforce
raent.
Therefore, men elected or appointed to office are required to swear that they will
enforce the law, not as they think it should be, but as it is written.
To all, this is the guarantee of justice and mercy.
To betray men’s daughters for money is neither just nor merciful
Nor is the maintenance of public market places for the purchase and sale of
women.
Nor is it for able-bodied men to live upon the shame of women.
Hence our laws and ordinances, which make impossible the return to our Midst
of the Houses.
Builded and maintained by the degradation, sorrow, and suffering of women,
they neither meet a need, nor bring prosperity and happiness to a great city.
And while breeding and spreading the most malignant and deadly diseases to in
nocent women and children, they serve only to fill the pockets of the most debased
and depraved of criminals.
These evils are wholly unnecessary and undesired in Atlanta.
BUT THE ETERNAL LAW UNDERLYING THESE TRUTHS
DEMANDS MORE THAN MERE PROHIBITION.
Children must be taught the vital facts of life.
A living wage should be paid to women and girls who labor.
Their hours of toil made reasonable.
Miss Jane Addams says:
“I have seen many young girls lose out in the struggle to live honestly upon
wages too meager and intermittent to support them.”
In a distant city, day after day. three times a day, with other prayers, working
girls prayed.
"O God, our Father, you who are generous, who said, ‘Ask and ye shall
receive,’ we your children humbly beseech you to grant that we may re
ceive enough wages to clothe and feed our bodies, and just a little leisure,
O Lord, to give our souls a chance to grow.
“O Christ, Thou, who waited through the long night in the Garden of
Gethsemane for one of Your followers, who was to betray You, who in
agony for us didst say to Your disciples, ‘Will thou not watch one hour
with me?’ give strength to those who are now on picket duty, not to
feel too bitterly when those who promised to stand with us in our strug
gle betray us.
“O Lord, who knowest the sparrow’s fall, won't you help us to re
sist when the modern devil who has charge of our work takes advantage
of our poverty to lead us astray? Sometimes, O Lord, it.is hard. Hunger
and cold are terrible things and they make us weak. We want to do rignt.
Help us to be strong.
“We ask this. Lord, for the sake of the little children, helpless and
suffering; for the girls who some day may be mothers of children, and
for those girls who dislike sin, but are forced into it through poverty."
Consider these things.
Then answer:
What motive have the churches in trying to protect the purity of girls?
What has led the churches of Atlanta, since the Houses were closed, to gather
sixty of the unfortunate women, some of whom they have carried home to parents:
some of whom they have placed in homes here and elsewhere and provided with ways
to support themselves?
Why, now, day by day, are the churches seeking these poor people, not to per
secute, i|ot to prosecute, but to give them aid?
And answer:
Wnat object have the men in view who oppose the churches in their work?
The object of the churches is to fulfill the Law of life and love given by God
They stand for it; they proclaim it; and when necessary, they fight for it.
AND NEVER WILL THEY BE CONFINED TO A LIMITED
AND IMAGINARY FIELD, APART FROM BUSINESS, PUBLIC
QUESTIONS, AND THE ACTIVITIES OF MEN, A FIELD WHERE
ONLY NEUROTIC WOMEN AND EFFEMINATE MEN COULD FIND
COMFORT.
Wherever men and women live, wherever they struggle and labor, wherever they
sin, sorrow and suffer, wherever they find pleasure and joy. and children learn, laugh
and play, the churches of the living God will bear His Light, the Law of life and
love, of justice and mercy.
Yea, and day after day they will bring its beams into the depths of the Under
world, to cal Iback to light and life God’s children, who have lost their way.
And at the very mouth of the Pit, will they plant and rally to the Cross of Christ
Under this standard and in His Name, they strive, not for self, but to save and
serve those for whom Jesus died.
You, with us, are among these.
Come with the churches and do a man's work in return.
Obey the Law, upon which all law depends.
