The Scriptures do not eiiCRent that man

whose denth could be a chanxe to another

Home. Quite lo the contrary The hope

Nor even then will-the Image of God , as

Worelv the glorious opportunities of rcc-

God answers the question of our text ,
TVhnt IH mntiT" He declares "Thou
nntleat him ( In hlH Edenlo perfection ) n
little lower than the angels Thou
rownedst him with Klory and honor ( the
dignity and power of the perfect Adam )
Thou didst set him over the worts of
thine hands ( an enrthlv being , he was at
the head of all earthly creatures the
King of earth ) , o\er the beasts of the
field , the fowl of heaven , the fish of the
afeo thou hast put all things under his
feet" ( with kingly power clearly outlined
and his subjects nnmcd ) . Evidently man
had a mental power for the control of
the lower creation aside from phjslcnl
force , I\B Intimated In hln primary deal
Ings with them nnd gh Inn them their
names ( Hebrews II , 6-E We hnve known
men possessed of wonderful magnetic
power horsi-tralncrs , such ns Rnrej , nnd
tamers of wljd beasts nnd reptiles IJut
oaro , perfect , must have pojfpessed this
power In n , still superior degree
A little lower than the nngels , yet very
much higher Jhnn the beasts was this
.Kins of earth In his perfection And
uncli man will be as a redeemed nnd re-
\ etored rnce , when the Divine Tlnn shall
hn > e been fullj outworked , when "evciy
.creature In heaven and In earth shall be
tienni caj Ing , I'rnlse and glory nnd hon
\ or , dominion and might , be unto him that
Itteth upon the Throne and unto the
L mb forc\er , " nnd when there shall be
no more sighing no more crying and no
more d > Ing because nil the former things
of sin nnd denth ehnll hnve passed
way , because the great King , Messiah ,
the Redeemer of mankind , shall deliver
Mm from the power of sin nnd death
and the tomb Well did he state his mis *
Ion work : "The Son of man came to seek
and to trroicr that uhicti ( ran lost"
r "The Earth Abldeth Forever"
Mnn , then 1 an animal of a high , glori
ous t > pe , adapted to his earthly homo nnd
It adapted to his welfare when he nnd It
ehnll both be In perfection Of the earth
It Is written thnt "God made It not In
vnln , but to be Inhabited" And again
The "earth abldeth foreer" "seed time
nnd harvest cold nnd heat , summer nnd 1
winter enduilng as long ns them are sun
end moon ' Again "Enrth Is God's foot-
atool nnd he will make the place of his
feet glorious " To this end the earth will
shortly bo turned over to the great Re
deemer , who will "take his grent power
and reign " He w 111 put down all ene
mies and lift up mankind , redeemed by
his sacrifice gl\lng an opportunity of
everlasting life to all , and then , as St
Paul declare * after having accomplished
the restitution work for man nnd for the
earth , the Redeemer-King will turn over
the government of the world to God even
the Father ( I Corinthians 15. H )
Our grent mlstnke In the past has been
In not studying the Bible correctly Hence
we failed to see that only an elect "little
flock" Is Invited to a heavenly reward for
following the Savior In the narrow way of
eelf-sacrlflce and that then the earthly
reward will lie bestowed during Messiah's
reign upon ult the willing nnd obedient
and that thus will be accomplished the
original Divine intention of having an
forth full of people amongst whom God's
will shall be done ai In heaven
At some future time we may take up
"What Is the eoul of man ? " For the
present let us briefly say that the word ,
oul finds Its s\non > m In the word being
and that when God had created man of
the dust of the earth he was a man only
in form , he was not a soul cr telns. ha
had no thought or sentient being When
God started Adam's phjslcn ) c > stem bv
blowing Into his nostrils the breath of
lives ( as the Hebrew Scriptures state It ) ,
then Adam , n.u pnrt of him , but the
whole of hltn. became a living soul living
being It wa not Adam's breath that
was on trial , that was sentenced , nor waa
it his flesh It was the toul Adam that
was tried the soul Adam that sinned , the
oul Ad.im that died and the foul Adam
that Jesus redeemed and that I * to be
jrcurrected.

1 To Protect All from Fire Danger.
With the installation of the large
chemical tank on the hose wagon of
the Norfolk liio depaitment , distncts
\\heie there aie no water mains are
now piotected from Hie as well as the
distilcts where theie is sufficient wa
ter.
Diher Monroe , assisted by Walters
& Son , completed the installation of
the tank and its apparatus yesterday
and the wagon is now ready to go to a
1 fire in any part of the city where
heretofore , it could only be used in
districts where there was plenty of
'
water.
. The wagon is now as complete as
'
any combination hose and che.nical
wagon used in anj lire department in
'
the state.
The workings of this tank are very
interesting. The tank itself holds for
ty gallons of fiie fighting fluid. Each
[ gallon of this is equal to forty gallons
of water in flie extinguishing quality
The tank has been placed directly
underneath the drivel's seat. To this
tank is attached 150 feet of small hose
which is carried in a large iron bas
ket elevated high enough above the
| box of the wagon to allow the storage
of 700 feet of regular fire hose. Ont
another side of the wagon is a contrivance -
t
trivance connected with this tank
whereby ordinary water can be used
should the chemical not be required.
The "average lire lasts about forty
[ ' minutes and it is claimed bj Mr. Mon-
that theie is sufficient fluid in the
'
tank to put out a fire. Mr. Monroe
manufactures the fluid for the chemical -
'
ical tanks at the fire station and says
; lie can recharge the tank after It has
been emptied at the flie , in three min
' ' utes. Two ladders will also be in
stalled on this wagon.
Heretofore the wagon carried about
1,400 feet of common fire hose , mak
ing the weight of the wagon with < ts
full equipment 3,860 pounds. vVith
about 700 feet of hose taKen off and
with the Installation of thf > chemical
tank it will now weigh about the same

Little Grave to Be Marked.
Neligh , Neb. , Jan. 2C. Editor News'
In today's isrue of The News we note
that a News leader of Stuait would
stait fund for memorial to little Kaurt
Stehr.
This is in itself a veiy commend
able spiiit and shows how the hearts
of a reading public go out in sympa
thy to the fate of this innocent child.
Sentiment and pity for the little one
can not of course undo what lias been
done , but it can maik the lostlng
place of the little martyr.
In full sympathy with jour Stnait
leader and others of your valued pa
per , we beg to ask that they foiogo
public subsetiption and we will place
at the giave of little Kauit a respect
able monument without cost to any
body but ourselves.
If our offer meets with approval
'please send necessaiy dates to in
'sciibe on monument and we will se-
lect a suitable stone from our stock
and set as soon as weather will per
mit. Yours truly ,
The Neligh Marble and Granite
Works , by F. G. Auiinger , treasuier
and general manager.
That a fund would have been i ais
led If It had been needed to maik little -
tlo Kauit Stehr'h giave , was evidenc-

water , called at The News to contii-
bnte $1 Mr Kell's contilbution will
'now be letmned , Inasmuch as - the
Neligh film has so geneiously olfoi-
ed to donate a stone foi the llttio
ipanpei's I lesting place
I ' Even before Mr Kell had appealed
at The News office , however , J M
Beaver , postmaster at Sciibner , Neb ,
i
had stalled the fund A letter just
received trom him was mailed at
.Sciibner Thuisclay afteinoon. appai-
| ently a few minutes after the noon
