A number of fair visitors who wished to go through tho prison woro disappointed because they could not make the visit on the holiday. A rulo in forco at the prison forbids visitors on holidays. Fair Patrons Ask for Rev. Ludden. Probably tho most familiar figure nt the stato fair for years past was tho Ilev. Luther P. Ludden, the best preacher-mixer i ntho stato in many a day. Ho passod nway last winter, and hundreds who did not read of his death In tho papers then inquired for him during a visit to tho grounds. Ex hibitors who woro shown favors galore by tho good man when ho, was regis ter in tlio administration office, re gretfully Hhook their heads when told that he vas gone. Everything for tho home, from call ing cards to coffee, and furnaces to winter fnre nil made in Nebraska was on exhibit in the Manufacturers' building at tho stato fair this year. Tho manufacturers of tho state, for the first tlrao In tho history of the organization, leased a largo building and filled Kb 7,000 square foet of space crammed full of things made in Ne braska factories.

ACLUKH THE PRICE Whon Tho Wlfo found out about Tho Other Woman, Tho Man nmdo no at tempt at denial. "Lovo," ho told hor, "does not eomo at our volition. I cannot holp it. I did not sook this thing that has eomo to mo and I cannot lay it aside." Whereupon Tho Wife voiced tho mlsory of hor hoart; mado an effort to rovlvo tho affection which sho was suro had been hers in nn earlier year, and at last, seeing that hor appeal was in vnin, sho spoko of honor. "Honor!" oxclutmed Tho Man In a wondering totio. "I do not know whoro honor should begin or leave off, my dear. You soo, our marriage was all a mistake From playmatos In child hood wo drlftod into comradeship In youth, and finally went on, Just drift ing pleasantly along to tho nltur. All of which might havo boon well ouough had I novor awakened. Hut I havo awakened. I know the diffcrenco now botweon lovo nnd a pleasant nffectlon, and to my mind our union tins be come but a desecration of marrlago." "What aro you going to do?" ques tioned Tho Wlfo, In that quiet way sho has when tho knifo in her heart is turning slowly. "Thoro is but ono thing TO DO," answered Tho Man. "And that?" sho asked. "Why," ho said, "wo must end this farco which you nnd I call marrlago." And aB ho spoko a peal of childish laughter rang through tho house, send ing a spasm of pain across Tho Wlfo's "Love," He Told Her, "Does features answering the words The Mnn had spoken as sho could never havo done. Lovo for Tho Other Woman coursed through Tho Man's veins llko a mad thing. There wero moments when he waB aloiTo that ho was bauntod by the laughter of tho Hoy Person in his home, but whon ho was with tho ob joct of his heart's desiro ho quite lost it from his consciousness. Timo camo when Tho Wlfo seldom saw Tho Man, and finally sho made up her mind that she would go to seo Tho Othor Woman, taking tho Boy Person with hor. The Other Woman's candor might have disarmed The Wife had it not boen for tho Doy Person's presence in tho room, for tho woman loved told tho woman unloved that she knew her errand; knew the terrlblo hurt she had brought her; declared hor own suffering through It, but endod with the samo assurance that Tho Man bad given tho frank assertion that tho thing which possessed her was bigger than her will and that she had no power to dispel the forco of lovo. "But what aro you going to do?" asked The Wlfo again. "Wo aro going away," camo tho frank reply. Whereupon The Wife assured The Other Woman that sho could not hopo to build happiness on another's misery; that sho could not hopo to forget tho small Boy Person whoso laughter was oven thon llko music in hor ear; that tho lovo sho chorisbod for Tho Man would eventually provo a uwiaierrifflxx NEWSPAPER aWIDICATt curso to them both, and whon hos auditor unswerod her nothing Tho Wlfo told her that whon sho wont away with Tho Man it would bo to llvo an ostracized life of shamo all hor days. "For," said Tho Wlfo, " will novor dlvorco him." Dosplto tho fact that Tho Wlfo kopt hor word, and that society frownod its dlsnpprovul on tho action of Tho Man and Tho Othor Woman, their lovo was sufficient unto them, und llttlo by lit tlo Tho Othor Woman forgot the curso which Tho Wlfo had promised should follow her to tho end of hor days, and when a llttlo girl camo to hor homo sho determined to put it out of her mind forovor. And tlmo camo when tho folk In tho distant city to which Tho Man hnd taken Tho Othor Woman to llvo woro inoro charitably disposed townrd them, nnd soma thore wcro who oven felt that Tho Wlfo was hard and vindlctivo, nnd extended tholr sympathy In courteous action to Tho Man and Tho Othor Womnn. But once in a whllo tho words of Tho Wlfo knocked sharply at Tho Othor Womun's conscience, nnd thon sho was afraid, and onco in awhllo Tho Llttlo Maid mado hor think of tho Hoy Person and his wondrous laugh ter, wheroupou sho was still moro afraid. Hut always Tho Man cher ished her, and with his tenderness dispelled tho shadows of tho past. Tho years slipped gently by, andj Tho Llttlo Maid becanio a woman Not Come at Our Volition." grown. Tho Othor Woman often won dored if her daughter know tho truth, but tho girl gave no sign, and so Tiio Othor Woman trusted to fato and was silent. And tho llttlo household was a very happy ono. Thon, on a day, Tho Little Maid was missing. Tho Man and Tho Othor Woman had novor dreamed that harm could befall tho quiet, gentlo presence in their homo. For a llttlo whllo thoy know not where to seek her, and whon at last thoy leurned that sho had gone away with a married man who was reputed tho most disreputable rouo of tho town, thoy followed quick ly to bring hor homo. But when Tho Other Woman found The Llttlo Maid in hor shamo the girl mot her agonized appeal quite coolly. "Lovo does not eomo at our volition. I cannot help It. I did not seek this thing that has come to mo and I had no power to avoid it. YOU should un derstand." Tho girl spoke tho wordB hor father had said to tho mothor of tho small Boy Person; the words Tho Othor Woman had told Tho Wife and tho sontenco with which she concluded hor statemont was Illuminating to Tho Othor Woman, who stood watching tho beautiful daughter to whom sho had given life and hor inheritance and as sho watched tho veil was lift ed from her eyes and sho saw that tho thing which Tho Wlfo had told nor in that far gone yesteryear was tho In evitable truth, and that tho present was tho prlco which Tho Wlfo had promised sho should pay.

Jehovah'H Jealousy of his iiniuii (v. 13) nnd tho enotnloa' con tempt for Jehovah (vv. 23, 28) aro tho fundamental onuses of tho dofoat of tho Syrians though, of course, drunk jiiuchh, ns an exhibition of nolMndulg onco and therefore of weakness, was a natural accompaniment of that con tempt for (2nd. I. Ahab's Predicament, vv. 10-12. Tho Syrian king's contemptuous treat ment of Ahnb (vv. 1-7) ut last becamo so great that In sheer desperation tho people refused to listen to his demands (v. 8). His forces far overwhelmed tlio little army of Israel (vv. 1, 10, 27), but ono was on Allah's sldo who hnd not yet withdrawn his mercy from Israel and with whom llcn-hadad could not cope (v. 13; Hum. 8:31; Phil. 4:13). Ilou-hndnd was tho most pow erful monarch of Ills tlmo of those na tions bordering upon tho Mediter ranean, Tho march of his army was llko "a tempest of hall, an overwhelm ing Bcnurgo" with unrestrained power. Tho effect was worse than tho plagues of Kgypt. Hut Hcu-hadad was n drunk ard, a habitual ono (vv. 12-10). Samaria was rich and thin king want ed it even ns Intemperance nlwaya lusts ufter tho wealth of youth and tho gold of a nation (vv. 3, 12). Drink nlwuyn makes a fool of Its victim nnd dooms to ultimate defeat nil who yield to its power (eh. 10:9; II Sam. 13:28; Prov. 31:4, 5; Luke 21:34; Eph. 5:18). II. God's Prophet, vv. 13-15. It was indeed dark for Ahub. Ho saw (v. 13) tho host confronting him but ho also heard tho word of Jehovah. As con trasted with Johovah that multttudo was but as a handful or dust. God is on tho side of tempcranco. All of God's laws favor tompnranco. Our evor-llvlng glorified lender and the energizing power of tho holy Bplrit aro tho ones who aro the sourco of our victories over all principalities and powers of evil. Ahab's predicament Is answered by God's "1 will deliver" (v. 13) and so today wo havo his suro promlso of victory (Eph. 0:10-12). God has today set forth his prophets (I Cor. 12:28) to proclaim his inea sago of salvation and power to over come lutemperanco. This is not a "necessary evil." Exports and scien tists havo clearly demonstrated Its be ing unnecessary and a drag upon so ciety, and God has taught us how to overcome It. Ahab's unfortunnto char acter appears at Its host in tills story, but alas ho and his successors soon forgot tho lesson. III. Victorious Princes, vv. 16-21. To Ahab's question "by whom" Is this do llvcrnnco to bo wrought, God answers, "by tho young men of tho princes of, tho provinces" (v. 14). Theso cholco young fellows are mustered In, 232 of them, as leaders of an army of 7,000, all who could bo found in tho capital. God delights to work through young men I John 2:13, 14) and tho pages of history aro strewn with tho victori ous achievements of youth. Two-thirds of Lincoln's army were under twenty-one years of ago at their enlistment; tho Union was preserved by an army of boys. Ahab himself la tho lcador (v. 14) and thoy began at once by carrying tho battlo Into tho enemies' territory. Ben-hadad nnd his drinking compan ions never dreamed of bolng attacked at that hour. Llko Gideon and his army theso young men smoto tho Syrian host in overwhelming defeat. Israel's enemies had incupucltated themselves. A drunken mob is no match for oven a handful of organized and sober men. Thoso thirty-three kings courted tholr own dofcat (Prov. 23:29-32; Eccl. 11:10; Hob. 4:11). Bon hadad's kings "who helped him" (v. 10) proved to bo a reed for all tho strength and support thoy ronderod him in the moment of Tils need. It was tho young men who wont first, e. g., struck tho first blow. Hen hadad's sclf-confldenco and boasting (r. 18) is but another Illustration of that "prldo which gooth before de struction" (Prov. 10:18; Luke 18:14). Tho army of Israel was small (v. 15) but it did not hesitate to attack tho superior forco and that sort of faith i will always incito others which will "follow thom" (v. 19). Every man "slow his man," each did his part "played tho game and played it fair" and tho result waa a host in full flight and tho handful of Israelites In pursuit (v. 20). God saved Israel that day by the uso of young men. Tcachors, do you real Izo your opportunity? It is ours to arouso In youth a realization of lta capacities, advantages, opportunities and responsibilities; to Insplro them with a determination to bo of service; to instruct them In God's plan of cam paign and to link them with tho Young Man of Nnzaroth, "the Captain of Salvation."
