The poet replied: "As long as the ideas of the men prevail who founded it." No truer saying was ever uttered by an American. The great principles of government as set forth in our Constitution by the founding fathers as well as the guarantees of human rights, are the bulwarks of strength and perpetuality of our Republic. Just as soon as the American people lose these principles and mutual reof spect for each other's rights in their own lives and in their dealings with each other, our Republic Is doomed, and we shall go the way of all other republics of the past. Let us as citizens of Nephl, on this anniversary of the Declaration of Independence of this great country, renew our allegiance to the principles upon which this country was founded upon.

Desperate thought bad come Into his head, and now. In the thick of the fog, be was wanderlug In the shopping district when suddenly he saw the face of the girl. A girl In silks and sables, beautiful beyond Imagination, carrying herself like a queen. Belton's heart was uplifted. He drew In a deep breutb even as she vanished. Somehow there was Inspiration In the mere sight of her. Then be saw the purse lying on the sidewalk at his feet. He snatched It up and ran. The act had been so sudden that no one noticed It In a moment he was lost In the fog. When Belton got to a safe place he opened It. It contained a single twenty-dolla- r bill and a piece of paper, on which was written, "Elizabeth Dering," with an address following. Ail that day Belton wrestled with temptation. At last he broke the bill and bad a good meaL He went to bed. Next morning he received a letter asking him to call In response to an advertisement That afternoon saw him established In a comfortable position. And now his conscience leaped Into a fury of activity. He had robbed the girl in the tog. and be knew he would have no peace until be had returned the money to her and confessed. On his first payday he set off for the address given, a twenty-dolla- r note in the purse. He was surprised to find that he was not going in the direction of the fashionable quarter. In fact, after a while he found himself In a distinctly undesirable, almost Impossible region for such a girl as Elizabeth Dering to live in. Negroes swarmed everywhere. Belton came to the conclusion that Miss Dering must be engaged In settlement work. But there was no settlement anywhere In sight, and finally Belton's chase ended at the door of a uegro's ramshackle frame house. By this time his spirits had sunk far below the zero mark, and only the strength of his original Impulse carried him on.
