While the king was getting "all

his humble subjects who were not
present at the ceremony were greatly

Prom among all sent In tho contest

Remember Thy Creator
in the Days of Thy Youth
Mr. Sunday yesterday preached as fol
laws: Remember now thy . Creator In the
days of thy youth, while the evil days
come not. nor tho years draw nigh,
when thou shalt say I have no pleasure
In them. In other words, start right
when you are young and when you are
old you will not bemoan the fact that
you have not lived right. Btart right
and you will serve God. The time to
start right Is when you are young. Most
Christiana have become Christiana be
fore they are 20 years old- In 'an audi
ence of 1,000 a preacher asked them
when they had accepted Christ and he
found out that out of that 1,000 883 had
become Christians before they were 30
years of age.
I was out In a brickyard several years
ago and saw them making brick. They
would put the clay In a big machine
something Ilka a huge sausage-grinder
and grind It up fin and then apread It
out on a big platform and smooth It
out Just the thickness of the brick, and
then a man .would turn a big wheel
and the knives would cut up the clay,
and fellows would put the pieces In
wagons with shelves .and carry them to
the kiln and burn them.
I picked up some of the day before
It went to the grinder and I could mold
It any way I wanted to. I picked up
on of the bricks after it came out of
the grinder and I could till mold it. I
picked up some of the clay that had laid
In the sun for several days and by try-
big hard I could still bend It, but when
, i picxea up a brick alter It had come
out of the kiln, try as hard as I might I
could not even dent It. It was burnt
hard and it would always remain that
way.
Children Like Clay.
Boys and girls are like that
When they are young Ood can
clay.
mold
do way or the devil can
mold them to do hla way, but after they
are old It la hard to change them.
It la hard to change a habit. If you
don't think so some of you boys Just
try it. Try to get up early every morn
In gand wash your face without being
told and see if it isn't hard.
Everybody wants to live a pleasant
life and there is no life as pleasant as
the Christian life. Everyone wants pvace
and my Bible telle me there ia no rest
for the wicked.
Toa - don't hwve to ' be told that an
apple Is good. Tou don't have to be
told that bread and butter is good for
you when you're hungry, or that water
Is good for you when you're thirsty.
Tou know It from experience, you're
tried It. I dont need to tell you that
religion is good. I have had tha experi
ence and I know that there is no life
so pleasant as - the Christian life. .
So start when you're young and you
will always feel better. My experience
Is that you will feel better If you live
right

I hsd a friend who waa asked In by
a vice president to see him when b.
was dying. The vice president n
Hannibal Hamlin. My friend went and
began to talk politics and monev and
events of the day. but the vice nreal.
dent stopped him and said: "Don't talk
of politics and money. That isn't what
I want to hear now. All that confronts
me now la religion, and the knowledge
that I am saved."
"So If you live and be president and
have not been a Christian you have
lived a useless life, but If you have lived
a Christian life and are not a president
or do not hold any office you have lived
a useful life, and if you have Ood In
your life you will go to heaven.
While I waa In the Young Men's
Christian association In Chicago I was
standing on the corner one night sjid a
man came along with his toes sticking
out and had a ragged suit on and a
slouch hat. and asked me for a dime to
get something to eat I told him I
wouldn't give him a dime because he
would go and get a drink. He sa'd: "You
would not let me starve, would youT"
I told him no, but that I wouldn't give
him the money, for him to go to the
Young Men's Christian association with
me and stay untn after the meeting, and
I would take him out and get him a
good supper and a bed. He wanted me
to do It right away, before going to the
Young Men's Christian association, but
T told him no. I was working for soma
one until 10 o'clock. So be. came up to
the meeting and stayed through the after
meeting and was very much Interested.
I saw that he used esotllent language
and questioned him. and found that he
was a man who had been adjutant gen

at one time been the editor of two of the

as follows:
"Lontest Editor Bee Here It Is. Then
shall He say unto them on the left hand,
"Depart from me, ye cursed lnte ever

one son, who was a bank cashier, but
he had disowned him and his picture
was taken from the family album and
his name waa never spoken in the house,
sll because ho was now down and out
on account of boose. I wrote to the boy
and said: "I've found your father. Send
me some, money to help him." He wrote
back and said for mo never to mention
his father's name to him again, that It
wasn't ever spoken around the house and
that hla father was forgotten. I replied:
"You miserable, low-down wretch. You
can't disown your father and refuse to
help him because he Is down and out.
Send me some money or I will publish
the story In all of the papers." He sent
me 15, and that's all I ever got from
him. I took care of the old man all
winter, and In the spring I went to a
relief society in Chicago and got him
a ticket to hla home snd put him on the
train, and that was the last I ever saw
of him. He lived a useless life because
he had not lived for Jesus. ' He had been
adjutant general and editor, but his life
had been useless.
Talks (o the Deaf.
I was out In Jacksonville, III., many
years ago and was sent to a deaf and
dumb asylum to make a speech. I asked
the superintendent Mr. Gillette, how
they expected me to talk to them. He
told me to go ahead and talk and see.
He stood right beside me and there
wasn't a soul looked at me' through that
speech. They watched him and he told
them on hla fingers what I was saying.
And when I had finished and had given
the Invitation seven or eight of those
that heard me came forward and said
they wanted to live for Christ I asked
the superintendent why they couldn't
learn to talk, and he said because they
were deaf. ' If someone had plugged up
your ears when you were born you
couldn't have talked. They had never
heard a word and dldn t know what it i
sounded like, and although they had Just
as good throats aa some of you, they
couldn't say a word.
A boy raine In about years of age and
I asked htm how long it would take him
to learn to talk. He al about seven or
eight years. Another came in, about 16
years of age, and I asked him how long I
it would take him to learn. He was the
most brilliant boy In the class and prom
ised to be the valedictorian, but the su
perintendent said it would take him
twelve or fifteen years to learn to talk.
I asked him if It was harder as they grew
older and be said it was, and that after
they had reached a certain age they
would never be able to talk.
The things I learned whan I was a boy
I remember, while some of the things I
learned later I forgot
