Now don't bother yourselves about
my eccentricities. They are not nat
ural. They are artificial. l put 'em
on merely to attract you here. just
look around and see what a crowd
you make. Laughter. A good
but tedious preacher, who could not
draw large congregations, was ad-
vised that if he would announce that
there would be earthern dogs in the
pews next Sunday thousands of Curl
Gus persons would come to see the
poodles. Laughter. Another
preacher advertised that he would
kick the panel out of the pulpit.
Laughter. The church was throng-
ed and there were 5000 outside try
ing to get in. After he had got as
many in the church as the building
would hold he kicked the panel out
as promised and then preached an
earnest sermon. Thank God the man
had a panel to kick! Laughter.
I have heard that some people say
they won't come to hear me because
they don't like my style and methods,
and do not wish to encourage me.
Now my friends, / don't want en-

fore / came here. and / reckon I'll
get along when / leave. Laughter
and applause. 1 shall continue to
get three square meals day and toll

all you'll have. A preacher said to
me, "Mr. Jones, l prayed God to
change your methods, and voice
seemed to say to me that if you were
changed you would be as dull as l
am" Laughter. May the Lord
help every man to preach the Gospel
as he thinks hest. | am ready to

But before l swap my hook and line

many fish he has on his string.

Face to Face.
BY PAUL III. HAYNE.

Sad mortal! couldst thou but know
What truly it means to die,
The wings of thy soul would glow,
And the hopes of thy heart beat high;
Thou wouldst turn from the Pyrrhonist schools
And laugh their jargon to scorn,
As the babble of midnight fools
Ere the morning of Truth be born:
But I, earth's madness above,
In a kingdom of stormless breath
gaze on the glory of love
In the unveiled face of Death.
tell thee his face is fair
As the moon bows amber rings,
And the CLEAN in his unbound hair
Like the flush of a thousand Springs;
His smile is the fathomless beam
Of the star-shine's sacred light,
When the Summers of Southland dream
In the lap of the holy Night:
For I, earth's blindness above,
In a kingdom of halcyon breath
/ gaze on the marvel of love
In the unveiled face of Death.
In his eyes heaven there dwells-
But they hold few mysteries now
And his pity for earth's farewells
Half burrows that shining brow;
souls taken from Times cold tide
He folds to his fostering breast,
And the tears of their grief are dried
Ere they enter the courts of rest:
And still, earth's madness above,
In a kingdom of stormless breath,
gaze on a light that is love
In the unveiled face of Death.
Through the splendor of stars impearled
In the glow of their r-otf grace,
He is soaring world by world,
With the souls in his strong embrace;
Lone ethers, unstirred by wind,
AT the passage of Death grow sweet,
With the fragrance that floats behind
The flash of his winged retreat:
And I, earth's madness above,
Mid kingdom of tranquil breath,
Have gazed on the lustre of love
In the unveiled face of Death.
But beyond the stars and the sun
1 can follow him still on his way,
Till the pearl-white gates are won
In the calm of the central day.
Far voices of fond acclaim
Thrill down from the place of souls,
As Death, with touch like flame,
Uncloscs the goal of goals
And from heaven of heavens above
God speaketh with bateess breath
My angel of perfect love
Is the angel men call Death.
