me lest I get dashed, but 1
Just got dashed anyway, and
it's my own fault, not the angel's. 1
have suffered this day until I want to
lay my face down against the hem of
his garment and wait In the dust for
him to pick me up. I shall never be
able to do It myself, and how he's go
ing to do it I can't see, but he will.
That dinner party last night was bad
tnougb. but today's been worse. 1
didn't sleep until long after daylight
and then Judy came In before 8 o'clock
with a letter for me that looked like a
state document. I felt in my trembly
bones that it was some sort of sum
mons affair from Ju2e Wade, and it
was. I looked Into the first paragraph
and then decided that I had better
get up and dress and have a cup of
coffee and a single egg before I tried
to read It
Incidental to my bath and dressing.
I weighed and found that I had lost
all four of those last surplus pounds
and two more In three days. Those
two extra pounds might be construed
to prove love, but exactly on whom 1
was utterly unprepared to say. I did
not even enjoy the thinness, but took
a kind, of alreadv married look in my
piass arid tried to slip the'egg paSFTny
bored lips and get myself to chew It
down. It was work, and then I took
up the Judge's letter, which also was
work and more of it
lie started in at the beginning of
everything that is, at the beginning
of the tuberculosis girl, and I cried
over the pages of her as if she had
been my own sister. At the tenth
page we burled her and took up Al
fred, and I must say I saw a new Al
fred In the judge's bouquet strewn ap
preciation of him, but I didn't want
him as bad as I bad the day before
when I read his own new and old let
ters and cried over his old photographs.
I suppose that was the result of some
of what the Judge manages the Juries
with. ITe'd be apt to use It on a wo
man and she wouldn't find out about
It until it was too late to be anything
ut mad- Still, when he began on me
at page 1G I felt a little better, though
I didn't know myself any better than
I did Alfred when I got to page 20.
What I am Is just a poor, foolish
woman, who has a lot more heart than
she can manage with the amount of
brains she got with it at birth. I'm
not any star in a rose colored sky, and
I don't want to inspire anybody. It's
too much of a Job. I want to be a
healthy, happy woman and a wife to a
man who can inspire himself and man
age me. I want to marry a thin man
and have from five to ten thin chil
dren, and when I get to be thirty I
want my husband to want me to be as
fat as Aunt Bettie. but not let me.
An inspiration couldn't be fat. and I'm
always in danger from hot muffins and
chicken gravy. Ilowever, if I should
undertake to be all the things Judge
"Wade said in that letter he wanted me
to be to him, I should soon be skin and
bones from mental and physical exer
cise. Stfll. "be does lIve"TF nTTlsboro,
and I won't let myself know how my
heart aches at the thought of leaving
my home and other things. It's up in
my throat and I seem always to be
swallowing it, the last few days.
All the men who write me letters
seem to get themselves wound up into
a skyrocket and then let themselves
explode in the last paragraph, and it
always upsets my nerves. I was Just
about to begin to cry again over the
last words of the judge when the only
bright spot In the day so far suddenly
happened, ret Buford blew In with
the pinkest cheeks and the brightest
eyes I had seen since I looked in the
mirror the night of the dance. She was
In an awful hurry.
"Molly, dear," she said, with her
words literally falling over themselves,
Tom says you'll give us some of your
dinner leftovers to take for lunch in
the auto, for we are going way out to
"Wayne county to see some awfully
fine tobacco he has heard is there. I
don't want to ask mother, for she
won't let me go, and his mother, if he
asked her. will begin to talk about us.
Tom said come to you and you would
understand and fix it quick. lie said
kiss you for him and tell you he said
Come on in, the water's fine. Isn't
he a Joke?" And we kissed and laugh
ed and packed a basket, and kissed
and laughed again for goodby. I felt
amused and happy for a few minutes
and also deserted. It's a very good
thing for a woman's conceit to find out
how many of her lovers are Just make
believes. I may have needed Tom's
deflection.
Anyway. I don't know when I ever
was so glad to see anybody as I was
when Mrs. Johnson came in the front
door. A woman who has proved to
her own satisfaction that marriage is
aailure is, at. times, a, great, tonlcto

this morning, and I got it

the difference In being married to Al

years. Luck doesn't strike twice in
the same place and you can't count on

Mr. Johnson's first cousin and had
more crochets and worse. lie had si
lent spells that lasted a week and
family prayers three times a day,
though he got drunk twice a year fsjy a
month at a time. Al looks very much
like him."
"Mrs. Johnson," I said after a mln
ute's silence, while I had decided
whether or not I had better tell her
all about it (If a woman's in love
with her husband you can't trust her
to keep a secret, but I decided to try
Mrs. Johnson), "I really am not en

that is, he what do you. think of

the most pitifully perplexed tone of
voice.

be forgiven him. She fell In love with
him while he was treating her for ty

were, and It was God's own kindness
in him that made him marry her when
he found out how it was with the poor
thing. There's not a woman in this
town who could marry, that wouldn't
marry him at the drop of his bat; but.
thank goodness, that hat will never
drop and I'll have one sensible man to
comfort and doctor me down into my
old age. Now, Just look at that! Mr.

about to back up ti a corner and re

that men oughtn't to write letters to

Alfred, counted all the fifteen pages,
put it out of sight under a book, looked
out the window and saw the ginger

to respond to my own remonstrances
with myself, and tears were slowly
gathering In a cloud of gloom when a

Memphis, Tenn.,
September , 21.
Pastor Russell ud
dressed two large
and deeply In
terested audiences
bere today, one In
the Memphis Au
aitorlum, seating
live thousand. We
report one of his
discourses, on the
topic, "The Dawn
of the Golden Age
of the Prophets
and the roets." Ills text was, -He
that sat upon the Throne said. Behold,
I make all things new." (ItevelaHoa
21:3.) He said:
The promise of a New Day has long
been before God's people in the Bible.
It was hinted to our first parents, six
thousand years ago, that eventually
the Seed of the woman should bruise
the serpent's head. This, Interpreted,
Is understood to mean that the power
of Satan will be crushed, and man
kind will be delivered from the reign
of Sin and Death which has prevailed
since the disobedience In Eden.
A. second promise, still more explicit.
made by God to Abraham of old, says,
"In thy Seed shall all the families of the
earth be blessed." For centuries Abra
ham's posterity waited for the Mes
siah of promise, with the anticipation
that He would use them In connection
with His work of blessing all peoples.
The Prophets of Israel foretold the
coming King of the- line of David
that He should be a great - Priest, a
reigning Priest, after the order of Mel-
chizedec. To nim "every knee shall
bow and every tongue confess," and
through Him a blessing will extend to
all nations as "a feast of fat things
full of marrow, and wines on the lees."
(Isaiah 43:23; 23:G.)
Even the disciples of Jesus, who rec
ognized Him as the "Sent of God." j
were disappointed that His glorious
Kingdom, of which He spoke, was not
Immediately revealed, and that In an- j
gwer to their question He declared, "It 1
Is not for you to know the times and
the seasons which the Father hath put
In Ills own Power." Still the props-;
ecies respecting Messiah's Kingdom j
were, repeated and amplified In the I
parables of Jesus, In the teachings of
His Apostles, and finally and graphi
cally, in the last Book of the Bible, In !
the Revelation which Jesus gave the
Church through St. John.
Our text Is a ' quotation from this
Revelation, respecting the Kingdom of
Messiah. Through it God is to wipe
away all tears from off all faces; and
the King of kings and Lord of lords,
whom Jehovah has established as the
great Messiah, assures us that He Him
self will "make all things new."
Even the heathen poets sang of the
Golden Age to come quite probably
borrowing their thought from the He
brew Scriptures and quite probably
realizing in some measure that a
gracious God would not forever per
mit a reign of Sin and Death, but
would somehow, sometime, and through
some agent, bring to earth blessings to
supplant the curse.
"Arise, Look Around Thee."
After all these centuries of waiting
nd hoping; and praying, "Thy King
dom come; Thy will be done on earth.
as in Heaven," God's people today are
more and more awakening to a realiza
tion of the fact that we are living In
the very dawn of the glorious Epoch
for which all have waited, prayed and '
hoped. These blessings have come j
down like a gentle shower, so quietly
that we can scarcely realize that the j
earth has entered upon the foretold ,
Times of ' Refreshing and Restitution
mentioned by St. Peter. Acts 3:10-21.
Many are still asleep. Some are con
fused, and know not to what the bless
ings should be attributed. Having lost
faith in the Bible and its promises,
many are seeking a solution of the
wonderful things of our day along the
lnes of evolution, claiming that a Na
ture god operates by blind force, under
law of the survival of the fittest.
Surely they overlook the fact that
there were great characters In the past
with whom few of the present day
may be compared such - as Shake
speare Bacon, Socrates, Plato, St
Paul, King Solomon, King David the
poet, Job, Moses, etc. .
A far better explanation Is furnished
us in the Bible. It explains that the
wonders of today are the foregleams of
Messiah's Kingdom and its blessings.
It explains that we are" In the Day of
Jehovah's Preparation for the King
dom of His Son. We have the numer
ous Scriptural declarations pointing to
PASTOR. gUSSEtlj
the end of this Age and the "dawning
of a new Age, and assuring us that at
this time many would run to and fro,
knowledge should be increased, and the
wise should understand. Dan. 12:1-13.
"In the Time of the End."
This prophecy of Daniel is worthy of
careful note, not only because Daniel
was a Prophet greatly beloved by the
Lord, but because Jesus, the Redeem
er, specially quoted a portion of this
prophecy, and thus attested its gen
uineness. The many running to and
fro could seemingly refer to nothing
else than the- wonderful travelling
which is a feature of our day and no
other.
In no other time was running to and
fro a possibility to any extent It Is
less than a century since the first crude
locomotive was built It Is only one
hundred and six years since the first
steamboat by Fulton was tried. It
might be said that there was no oppor
tunity for running to and fro, until
within the past fifty years. Now, the
world la grldironed with rails. Now,
the ocean voyage of four months is cut
down practically to as many days, by
mammoth vessels carrying three thou
sand to four thousand at a time.
Who knew, at the time of Daniel's
prophecy, of these wonderful facili
ties for running to and fro? Who
knew that these facilities would be so
generally used in this our day? Only
the Almighty! And He gave this as
one of the particular signs of the end
ing of the present Age the dawning
of the New Dispensation the long
promised Messianic Kingdom.
Look also at the second proof fur
nished us by "this Prophet the Increase
of knowledge. Who would ever have
dreamed, a century ago, of conditions
as they are at this moment when
practically every human being in civil
ized lands, from ten years old and up
ward, is able to read and write? Who
would have dreamed of such persisten
cy to fulfil the prophecy as would lead
to laws of compulsory education in all
civilized lands? Verily, the increase of
knowledge is a positive proof of the
lnsplraton of Daniel's prophecy, and
equally proves that the New Age is
dawning, and that we are now in the
day of God's preparation for it.
The next statement of the Prophet
Daniel Is that the wise of God's peo
ple shall understand. And now, in the
appropriate time, all over the world.
classes of Bible students are coming
together, regardless of denominational
lines, to study the Heavenly Father's
Word. And true to the prophecy, the
wise, trimming their Bible lamps and
being well supplied with the oil of the
Holy Spirit, are receiving light are
understanding the things kept secret
from past ages and generations.
"The mystery of God shall be finish
ed," is another of the promises of the
Bible respecting the present time; and
surely it is having fulfilment! Not
all are yet awake. But the joy of
those who are awake, and their sing
ing of the song of Moses and the
Lamb, tend more and more to awaken
all the virgin class.
One more token of the end of this
Age and the dawning of the New Age,
God declared to the Prophet Daniel;
namely, "There shall be a time of trou
ble such as never was since there was
a nation." Let us not especially dwell
on this sad feature. Let us regret that
unpreparedness for God's mercies and
blessings makes necessary a great day
of trouble, to prepare the hearts of men
for the blessings God is about to pour
upon them.
The Redeemer mentioned the present
time, and the Time of Trouble which
we see looming up on every band and
threatening the very foundations of
society political, social and religious,
lie bade His followers rejoice even
amidst the trouble, because it marks
the Day of deliverance from the pow
er of Sin and Death. He said, "When
these things begin to come to pass,
then look up, and lift up your heads
and rejoice, knowing that your deliv
erance draweth nigh.' Luke 21:28.
Knowledge of God's Glory.
The Bible declares that a prominent
feature connected with the New Age
will be the binding of Satan, the Prince
of Darkness, the father of lies, who
has been deceiving poor humanity for
these six thousand years. Continually
he has been misrepresenting God's
character and Plan so as to turn hu
manity away from God in fear and dis
trust Thus he has blinded their minds
to God's glorious goodness, which, to
His people, is now shining clearly. In
the personal character of our Redeem
er and in the promises of the Bible.
Every preparation is being made for
the dissemination of knowledge world
wide. Telegraph wires and cables con
nect the civilized world, and now ad
ditionally the wireless telegraphy; and
the later improvements upon this
means of communication seem destin
ed to bring it shortly to a plane of
world-wide economy and usefulness.
The printing-press Is one of the most
wonderful preparations of God for the
general dissemination of knowledge.
And already the world is learning that
many of the things considered absolute
certainties by our forefathers are real
ly absurdities. Amongst others are the
various creeds which we and other
civilized peoples have worshiped as
idols Idols which have seriously mis
represented the character of our Heav
enly Father.
In agriculture other wonders are be
ing performed, fulfilling the Scriptures,
and seeming, in the light of the past
almost as miracles. Vast areas of
wilderness and arid lands are being
fertilized. Artesian wells are fulfilling
the prophecy of springs coming forth
from the desert . The promise of the
Lord through the Prophet, that the
earth should-yield her increase, is also
being fulfilled. New varieties of wheat
of oats, of cotton, etc.. are being dis
covered, and the yield is being' multi
plied. At the same time the quality is
being advanced. " Fruits and vegeta
bles are reaching a ierfeciion. not
dreamed of even twenty-five years ago.
The same Divine providence which
has lifted the veil before the eyes of
mechanics has also lifted the veil be
fore the eyes of agriculturists, and
Mr. Burbank is giving the world won
derful lessons' in agriculture and horti
culture. These blessings of our day
are none the less wonderful because
they are coming In a seemingly natural
way. If once we expected these things
to be fulfilled in a miraculous manner,
it was because we forgot that
"God moves In a mysterious way
His wonders to perform."
Everything in nature is really a miracle
until we come to understand it and
then it is no less a wonder, but merely
seems less so because commonplace
and usual.
"3end Out Thy Light."
While we have been singing, "Send
out Thy Light and Truth, O Lord,'
perhaps comparatively few who sang
have appreciated the fact that, while
we were asking, God was fulfilling our
request, not only along spiritual lines,
but also along natural lines. The in
crease of light, knowledge, under
standing, appreciation of God's Word,
has merely been keeping pace with the
natural light.
Think of it! even fifty years ago the
making of tallow candles was an in
dustry in nearly one-half the homes of
humanity! Only then did petroleum be
gin to enlighten the world. Then came
coal gas; and now this is rapidly giv
ing way to the electric light, in which
one form after another is increasing
its usefulness and cheapness. Indeed,
when we speak of electricity we are
speaking of one of the wonders of the
world, of which we understand so lit
tie. It would appear as though the
Lord has in this, hidden treasures of
wisdom, power and blessing.
Already the hours of labor are great
ly decreased. Already time for study.
Improvement and pleasure is at our
disposal. And yet we are only in the
infancy of these blessings. We are
only nearlng the dawn of that glorious
Day when sin and sorrow shall pass
away forever.
At one time we might h.ove feared
that the rapid Increase in the con
sumption of coal would soon leave the
world destitute of fuel. Statisticians
declare that the supply of the whole
earth at the present rate of consump
tion and increase will be exhausted in
less than two centuries. But we need
not fear. A better means of comfort,
than by the drudgery of our fellow
creatures in the bowels of the earth,
will undoubtedly be proAlded by the
great King of kings, who has under
taken by Ills Kingdom to bring to our
race blessings, instead of the curse un
der which we have labored six thou
sand years six great Days.
How He will do -it Is, of course, a
mystery. Nevertheless, we do know
that in the water which is so abundant
and in the air which we breathe there
are elements of combustion far more
than sufficient for every need. Man
needs the key of knowledge on this
subject, and it will doubtless be fur
nlshed by the Lord in the very same
way that He has already given us the
key to our other blessings which are
preparing for the perfectness of His
Millennial Kingdom.
Forgiveness, Reconciliation, Peace
But Messiah's Kingdom will be much
more than a beneficent Reign giving
mankind temporal blesslncs and knowl
edge. In connection with the knowl
edge of God. the way of reconciliation
will ho nnvoil for tho sinner. He who
redeemed the world with the sacrifice
of Ills own life is to be the great Medi
ator between God and men. Forgive
ness of sins and help out of the weak
nesses of the fall are the glorious prom
ises of the Scriptures.
Inherited weaknesses, surrounding
temptations and isnorance of God. un
doubtedly have more to do with the
reic-n of Sin in the world than any real
preference for sin on the part of the
majority. When temptation to sin
ahnll have been removed, when' Satan
shall be hound, when the True Licht
shall shine, when God s true character
shall have been manifested,, when Ills
lovinsr pitv for the race shall have been
demonstrated, we have every reason
to suppose that then, the majority or
mankind will be clad to return to the
Father's House, to serve Him with
true contrition of heart and loyalty.
We are fully content, however, with the
Scriptural proposition that when tne
light of that glorious Day shall bring
blessings to every member of our race.
the inexorable law will be tuat wno
ever loves sin shall perish in the Sec
ond Death, without hope of recovery.
The Church of this Gospel Age is an
exception to the masses of the world.
Of these Jesus said, "Blessed are your
eyes, for they see; and your ears, for
they hear." Thus He indicated that a
special favor comes to this special
class. Respecting the others, St Paul
writes that some are feeling after
God, desiring to find Him, but are baf
fled bv the Ignorance and superstition
with which Satan blinds and confuses
thorn. "The cod of this world hath
blinded the minds of those who believe
nnt." lpst the' elorious HgLt of God s
goodness as it shines in the face of
Jesus Christ our Lord should snine in
hofr honrts.
The Church, thus an exception to
the world, is styled the Elect or ooa,
a people for a purpose. The Divine
promise to the faithful of the Church
is Joint-heirship with Messiah in that
glorious Kingdom which is Just aoout
to be established, and for which still
we pray, "Thy Kingdom come." These
elect ones, tried, tested, found worthy,
will be Messiah's Joint-heirs and His
associates in ruling, helping, uplifting.
Judging, the world of mankind to as
certain which, under full light and op
portunity, will love sin and which will
love righteousness and hate iniquity.

study and practice of right farming, and he
succeeded mightily, for he made $4,000,000 in
the business of farming. David Rankin said:
'The manure spreader is the most efficient
money-maker on the place."
It's warm praise to be ranked above all other
farm machines, but the spreader deserves it.
Soils rebel when crop after crop is taken from
them, without return of fertilizer. Return
every bit of manure to the soil. The I H C
manure spreader will save you much disagree
able hard labor, will spread evenly, and will
make one ton go as far as two tons spread by
hand.
I H C Manure Spreaders
are built to suit you, to do best work for the
buyer in every case, to convince him that he
has made the wisest purchase. Every detail
in the construction has a purpose, for which it
was made after thorough tests and experiment.
They have the maximum of strength and en
durance. You will find all styles and sizes in the I H C
spreader line. They will cover the ground
with a light or heavy coat, as you choose, but
alva3Ts evenly, up hill or down. There are high
and low machines, with steel frames, endless
or reverse aprons, but always giving best pos

THE BURLINGTON BAND
CONCERT' LAST NIGHT
From Fridav's Daily.
Tho Burlington band gave one
of the best concerts iriven so far
this season at (larfield park last
even in?, and one of the best se
lected, as well as dillicult pro-
was offered by the band boys ami
was given in a very pleasing
manner. The overture, "Poet
and Peasant," was received with
much appreciation by the large
audience that despite the chilly
winds had gathered to enjoy the
pleasing' music, and fop a band
of its size the overture was given
in fine shape. Another selection
given in a most able manner by
the young musicians was thai of
"Idle Moments," which was given
several weeks ago and made such
a lavoranie impression upon
everyone that, it was requested
from a number to be given again
The waltz, "Calanthe," was one
of the best numbers given and
I tie beautiful music was in-
terpeted by the band in an able
manner that reflected great
credit upon them. The lovers of
the popular musical comedy hits
were pleased by the placing on
the rimarrani of selections from
"The Stubborn Cinderella," the
tuneful music of Joseph Howard
finding a warm spot in the hearts
of the hearers, and it was with
regret that they heard the last of
the catchy music. The concert
was very pleasing in every way
