ishment. But that seeming punishment
is none other than an experience of
trial which tends to the develop
ment, exaltation and salvation of
the individual. In like manner,
many people of the world
think, because the Latter-day Saints
are temporarily harrassed with care,
trouble and anxiety, that the hand of
God is upon them to punish them. Bat
in the ear future their present expert
ence will tend to bring them into closer
communion with the heavens. II the
people of God expect to excel the world
in glory. they must excel the world In
righteousness. Unless they OBEY the
laws ann commandments which God
has so beautifully laid before them,
they need not expect God 10 make His
power NANTES. IL their d. half. They
should not render themselves servants
to the Mammon of un igh'e0usne So and
thus close their hearts against that
no Ter Spirit which would lead
them back to the presence
of their heavenly Father. The
Saints should not let their hearts
fail them on account of the trials
through which they are passing. The
difficulties they have to encounter are
but stepping stones to their Pxaltation-
they are but rounds in the ladder that
leads to heights celestial. The child
hstes to go to school; but through Sc
we're training, the learned professor IS
the result. He may dread the punish
ment for wrong-doing, but such punish.
ment keeps him from doing wrong
again. So it is with the people of God.
Chastisement tends to purify them and
raise them to greater excellence. Elder
Stayner exhorted the Saints to live near
unto God that their prayers and fastings
might not be in vain, and prayed that
they might prepare themselves for the
redemption of Zion.
An anthem was then sung by the
choir. Counselor Daniel Fl. Wells pro-
nounced the beue6ictiou.

Catholic.

The odor of lilac bloom psrvaded
the air in the Catholic church yesterday
morning. There were few seats un-
filled and some persons took their stand
by the door. Father Kelley oficiated
and delivered the discourse, which was
brief. "Yet little while and ye shall
not see me-" read Father Kelley from
the gospel. And he then explained that
what he had read, while bearing directly
on the ascension of the Savior, also re-
ferred to our temporary existence on
this earth. "Our existence here is
brief period between two eternities.
I'VE are as travellers in a far
off land, away from friends,
an1 we sigh for the old
home, where all our Joys are concen-
trated. This earth is but a place of
exile, of probation. where God tests US
as His children. Our home is heaven"
During the probation there are rules tor
human guidance, a violation or which
meets the punishment promised as
obedience is followed by the rewards
assured.
I'VE ave three wonderful opponents
TO our salvation-three great enemies
the devil, the world and the flesh"
The devil is possessed of extraordinary
powers, and as illustrating, this point
the temptation of Jesus and the atf1ie
lions of Job were cited by Father Kei-
lev. lover Job he had simply power to
afiict the body; but God sometimes
uses Satan as an agent of his
vengeance, and he is given power over
both body and soul. The second
enemy to the salvation of man is the
worldly the world is meant mankind
who by example tempt US to forget
God, who seek for riches, who court
the prosperous rebuke the poor, mock
and sneer at religion and who call
those who love God weak and super
stitious; these are the pet phrases of
the infidel and libertine. 1.-The world
is dangerous to salvation because I'VE
fear its ridicule and its contumely."
The third enemy Is the flesh. 1t is
called the most dangerous. By the
flesh is meant corrupt nature. self
love and inherent desires to sensual
qualification. st. Paul tells US what
the evils of the flesh are. Nothing so
soon destroys memory or skaters the
life as loose morals. "St. Augustine
says the pleasures ST lust are
for brief season, but its !
pains for all time.n We lack the power |
of resistance because we do not ask for !
the grace of God. Men pay for few |
moments of pleasure by an eternity Of !
woe. We should avoid immoralitv as
we would the most deadly plague, To
yield to it is like one who yields to the |
use of alcoholic liquors. The only hope
OF salvation is by a wonderful interpo-
sition Of the grace of God. Young
men ant women live at a time when
vice Is almost at premium, and par
ents will have to answer for their chill
dren before the judgment seat. 1t is
idle to expect heaven for your inherit
ance when your children, because of
blessed are the pure in; heart, for they
shall see God"

Of the editors Of the st. Mary's Enter

since for the purpose Of examining the
machinery in the canneries at that place,
and to estimate the cost of running es-

of the enterprising gentlemen who made

ably to be located in Lconardtown.-
