The devil took our Lord up on a high mountain and showed Him the wealth of the world. He told our Lord he could have the whole works and pay later. Our Lord decided he would rather pay cash and pay less—and he answered back: Get behind Me, Satan. When Satan found out he couldn’t work Him, he next spotted the Kaiser. The Kaiser had every thing fine and dandy before but when he saw what he could get from Satan—He fell. He says: “I’ll take it” and the deal was made. Then the Devil told the Kaiser the world was his, to go get it. Now the Kaiser is trying to pay the devil what he owes him. What good does it do to go to church and pray and beg for help and then go right down town and buy on tick. It’s the devil voice, saying “I’ll pay you tomorrow.” It’s the devil voice urging you to look at the nice things in the windows of the credit stores and the things n th in the catalogue, Saying, “Buy it. Charge it Buy it. Charge it.” It’s the Lord’s voice saying, “Cash and Carry! Cash and Carry!” Which voice are you listening to? Satan’s of course. Don’t he make things easy—for himself. Your soul can’t enter heaven—’till every debt is paid—Hell—the more debts—the merrier—and the Quicker. 3—20c Bottles OQp Peroxide . 4uu 5—8c Boxes Searchlight, Blue Tip or Household Matches, 5 boxes. 4* 5—10c Packages Arm & Hammer, or Howell’s 9(In Best Soda . 4JU 5—25c Cakes Bakers QQn Chocolate .
