origin and perpstuation Of the Aaronic priest

origin and perpetuation Of the Aaronic priest
hood. Paul very briefly and clearly states the
object designed TO- bezsecomphs by-thsse
priests. The followingas hisIlangqages 'Ey-
ery high priest, taken from afnefig men; isT Or
dained for men, in things pertaining to God,
that he may offer both gifts and sacrifices for
SINS" Hebrews 5:1.
From the Scriptures we learn that the priests
of the Old Testament, dispensation We're types
of the Messiah, and the services which they
rendered were typical of the work which the
Messiah would perform. 1t must be clear to
any mind, that the gifts and sacrifices which
the Aaronic priests offered were inadequate to
make satisfaction for sin. This they were
not Designed to do7 They wee we'll; dapted
to typify the sacrifice which would make sat
isfaction to the law and justice of God, and
thus reconcile God to man. Besides the typi-
cal character of the Old Testament gifts and
sacrifices, they were devotional, embracing
confession of sins and acknowledgment of
mercies received. The whole, howeveE was
but d shadow of something BETTER Paul, in
Hebrews 1911, says the law" that is the cove
nant of Mount Sinai, with it's rites and cere-
monies, shaving a shadow of good things to
come, and not the very image of the things,
can never, with those sacrifices, which they
offered, year by year, continually, make the
comers thereunto perfect" Jesus Christ was
the priest and sacrifice to which they all point
ed, and without whom they were worthless.
But of this again.

The LAST FLAG OF TRUCE OF THE Con-
FEDERACY.-The last flag of truce in the war
of the rebellion was carried by Col. R. NJ.
SimsSfrom the Confederate General John B.
Gordon to Gen. Sheridan. The cessation of
hostiities brought about by this truce imme
diately preceded the surrender at Appomat-
tox Court House. The flag borne by Col.
Sims was simply white towel, and after the
surrender it disappeared entirely, and was for
a time forgotten in the excitement attending
the last events of the great conflict. Within
the present year Col. Sims wrote an account
of the last truce of the war, which was print
ed in the Charleston Ne,rS and Courier, and
the publication of his narrative has interested
many persons in the search for the missing
flag of truce, which it was believed was re-
tanned by somebody as a valuable relic of the
rebellion. Gen. Sheridan was asked for infOr-
nation concerning the towel, but neither he
nor members of his staff whom he consulted
remembered anything about it. However, the
towel has at last been found. 1t is in posses
sion of Mrs. Elizabeth G. Custer, widow of
the late Gen. Custer, who is now in Europe, to
whom it was presented by Gen. Sheridan at
the close of the war. Gen. Carle A. Wood
ruff remembered this incident, although Gen.
Sheridan had forgotten it. Mrs. Custer re-
Gently wrote a letter to Col. Sims, in which
she stated that the improvised flag had been
treasured by her with other war relics. ut
has, she added, ''never been used or eXhib-'
tied in any way that could, offend the
most sensitive spirit. Gen. Caster taught
me early in my married life to look upon our
unfortunate war as too sacredly sad to admit
of any feeling save that of sorrow and regret
that one brothers. hand should be compelled
to be raised against another"

CONVENIENT SHELvEs.-A convenient ar
rangement of shelves in one corner of your
room is easily made. Have a carpenter or
some other competent person nail or screw
cleats to the wall, on which the three-cornered
shelves may rest have them fastened securely
to it, and see that they are level. These
shelves may be three in number, and it is a
good plan to have the lowest one at about the
height of an ordinary table-a triile lower,
perhaps the reason for this is that it is more
easily taken care of and kept free from dust
than if it is so low as to oblige one to stoop or
kneel down. These shelves may be made of
common pine (well seasoned of course), or of
black walnut. They may be finished with
narrow lambrequins, scalloped at the bottom !;
fringe is not desirable in common room, as
it catches dust. A shelf similar to one of
these is especially convenient in the dining
room. saw one placed about as high as the
top of side table a; it held pretty tete-a-tete
set, and was an ornament to the room. This
was covered with cretonne, and had a band of
the same for alambrequin.

BLUE RAILROAD PRosPECTs.-T -Theinabili-
ty of the Augusta and Knoxville railroad to
meet the January interest on the bonded debt
is not much of surprise, but it places the
Greenwood, Laurens and Spartanburg road,
now being graded, in doubtful situation.
If there is no provision made for the payment
of interest on these bonds receiver will have
to be appointed for the road. That will, one of
these days. necessitate the sale, for if the road
cannot pay the running expenses and interest
on The bonds, it would certainly soon 60 under

Indians if they could only be organized in the

desert, twenty per cent. would be off on fur

list, and about ten per cent. more consist of
pIayed-out old bucks who would be too deere

dams are not organized according to the Uni

result is that they are always able to put a
