several years been the most pop

east, west, north and south it is
the one potato that gives uni

size and mealy texture of the
potato so far, pxccl.s most; other
kinds of the same tuber, that the
Early Ohio potato stands far
above all others in the. estimation
of the housewife, who prepares

v. 1-5. . i
Tbn common tendency of ttie human
mind U expressed by St. Peter, who
prophesies of the present time that the
worldly will be sayiim. "Where Is
the promise of Ills presence?
All tldngH continue as they were from
the foundation of the world." Ignor
ance of Cod's Plan Is to be expected of
the world, but the true people of (iod
have the promise of IIIh special In-1
struct ion so that they need not be In
darkness respecting tlio IMvine Pro
Krain. Our. world for six thousand years
has been the, battle field between '.he
forces of light and darkness, t nil h and
eivor. ' rlL'hteousness nnd sin; the
Prince of Darkness, otherwise styled
the 'Prince of this world." has led his
forces in person., and ha controlled
the masses . and Is Kill controlling
them. The Prince of I.lput Is repre-,
rented In a feeble way by ntubassa-
dors who tire 'specially cautioned by
Illm that they must not uno carnal
weapons nor carnal methods, but must
in meekness correct those who oppose
them, They must be subject to "the
powers that be" to the extent that
their consciences will penult, and s"
far as possible live peaceably with all
men.
This experience of subjection to tin
powers of evil has been a hard lesson,
dilllcult to learn; a trial of faith ns well
as of endurance, the value of which
has been dilllcult sometimes to apple,
elate. Hut these must walk by faith
nnd not by slht tf they would please
the Captain of their salvation. For
entuiies the .prayer has jroue up to
(oil from their hearts. "How lonj;,
Lord!" Reason assures them that lr
cannot be the Divine purpose to for
ever permit the victory of sin and
death under the Prince of Darkness.

This sealing In ttie forehead Implies
an Intellectual appreciation of heaven

with the harvest work the sealed are

proved also Ills unselfishness- Ills
love- "greater love hath no man than
tuts, thnt n man should lay down W"

These, in association with their lie-1
