The meaning of Ohriatmaa can snrely be found in the word "Love." And man¬ kind ran do no better than to realize the truth of thia auper-word and ita meaning and let the daily life exemplify

One of them had a revolver ancl pointed it at Beil. who told the hold-up men he had only 511 cents and turned it over to them.

He told his father of the oc¬ currence. The elder Beil went to Naz¬ areih and related the story to Cliief Macy. He and Uacy then started to look around the town. Finally thev. went into llagenbuch's restaurant. Macy spotted three young men seated at a table. He noticed burdocks on their trousers and their shoes were  muddy.
Taking them into custody, Macy marched them to the offiee of Squire Andrewa, where they gave their namea US Ix-ster Stark and Raymond Schissler, of Nazareth, and Edward .Miller, of Bethlehem.
