ANOTHER FAKE.
Valuable (2) Corner Lots Free to
Everybody.


One Of the latest lodges for trapping un-
vary mortals is the offer OF a corner lot in
Florida to every one who will solve rather
simple species Of rebus. As soon as the
answer is forwarded TO the New York
agency, a printed circular is returned stat
ing that the guesser is entitled to an ex-
ceptionally fine lot valued at 500 and an
a joining one valued at $500, which will bo
knocked down at the trihing sum OF $40
considering the brilliancy Of the solver of
the rebus, along with Sl25 as a fee, pre-
sumably for the payment of freight. just
how many corner lots of this sort the fake
firm has disposed of it is impossible to osti-
mate but judging from the generally
gulible nature of human kind the fakrs
will soon be able to retire on an ample
fortune. The remoteness of Florida and
he absurdity of purchasing a 500 lot for
Sll.25 never seems to dawn on the impress
ible bargain hunters. They would buy an
orange grove in Iceland or French flat in
heaven if some oiIy-tongued scamp should
assure them that it belonged to job lot,
with only few more left and that it was
being sacrificed at ono.teuth OF its original
cost out of personal admiration for the f.re-
mentioned bargain hunter.

WHAT THE SCRIBES SEE AND HEAR
Rev. Powick's Interesting Sermon
in the Methodist Episcopaf
Church on "The Wages
of Sin"

The sermons on Sunday at the Methodist
Episcopal church were from the text For
the wages of sin is death, but the gift of
God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our
Lord. Rom VI-23. Attention was di-
rected to the three pivotal words Of the
text: Sin, Death Life. Men hold very
superficial views of sin. Christ lodged Gin
not only in the outward act but in the sin
full desire. Thou shalt not commit adul-
terry" means according to the sermon upon
the mount: "He that looketh upon a
aooman to lust after her hath committed
adultery Nth her already IN his heart -
THE thought of foolishness is sim" We
often find very superficial views OF death,
which are auti-scrjptural and grossly ma
terialistic. That death is the wages of
sin" is not matter of dspute-all are
agreed upon this point. But what is death?
TN the day that thou eatest thereof thou
shalt surely die" But the death inflicted
was not inconsistent with continued ex-
stenoe. The scriptures frequently speak
of those who are both dead and alive, but
in different senses, at the same time: "She
that liveth in pleasure is dead while she
liveth"-awake them that sleepest and arise
from the dead-dead in trespasses and in
sins. "By one man sin entered into the
world and death by sin and 20 death passed
upon all men," But whether this means
bodily or spiritual death, or both, is not
explicitly stated, Nor is it so easy to de-
eide, rs we are wont to think, whether
bodily death was included in the penalty of
sin or whether it was in the original con-
stitution of nature and only received its
''sting" from sin. Certain it is that bodily
death did not pass upon either Enoch nor
Elijah. The only definition of death
which the scriptures afford is this ito be
carnally. is desth-the death which
is the wages of sin. Csrnality-heshliness
-wordliness is death because it excludes
from companionship with the infinite
With this definition of death agree the
scriptural definitions of eternal life: 'to
be spiritually minded is life and peace"
''This is life eternal that they might know
Thee the only true God and Jesus Christ
whom Thou hast sent" There is no con-
fusion here between questions of existence
and non-existenco and questions of life and
death. And better understanding of
certain old testament passages (which were
read and explained which have seemed to
contradict these definitions would have
shown that they have nothing to do with
them. Paul's definitions agree with such
passages as "he that believeth in the Son of
God hath everlasting life, and he that
liveth and believeth in me shall never die"
But if life and death are identical with ex-
istence and non-existence Everlasting
life" does not last forever and its possessor
shall "never die''-till he dies. Spiritual
death-exclusion from companionshp and
fellowship with Gods the wages" the
daily pay for TO the Greek signifes-of sim
Its final doom is something else-even ever
lasting punishment.

a Wise Cow.

Even the dumb animals recognize in the
HERALD valuable advertising medium.
As Chief of Police Amour, Councilman
Dan Coakley, HERALD reporter and
others stood on the corner of Main and
Centre streets last night large red COW,
which was evidently stray, walked up to
the group and by a moo or two attracted
attention. The incident caused some mer-
riment. Some psssersby advised Chief
Amour to arrest the cow. Dan Coskley
said, "Perhaps she thinks 1 have bale of
hay in myssspocket, purchased with the
money the councilmen are charged with
receiving for their ~ rail votes" But the
most plausible theory was that the COW
wanted to be advertised as estrsyed in the
HERALD.

Game in City Restaurants.

(@ ,reat many persons who go to res
~ ,,nts, in our larger cities, especially
the better class of eating houses, for
their meals, wish to be considered ex-
perts In the matter of dishes. They
talk with an air of authority about can
vas-backs, quail, prairie chicken and
English snipe, and tell you that they drop
in to this and that place so many times
week to get some Of the choice game.
But the restaurant people could unfold
q tale which would make all the
fashionable gourmsnds feel very silly
If they only told it, The truth Of the
matter Is that ono very seldom gets in a
restaurant in this country the game
that is marked on the bill of fare. The
choice canvas-back duck is usually q
wood duck, black duck or common
barnyard duck. In nine cases In ten
the fashionable and toothsome quail Is
an old pigeon, a ameadow lark or robin.
The prairie chicken Is an old hen that
has done duty as a domestic fowl for
several seasons, and The delicious reed
bird Is none other than common
sparrow or thrush, which are killed by
the thousands TO supply the tables Of
fashionable restaurants, And yet not
IN itl ten of those who talk glibly of
teSlgS game dinners know the difference.

pretty table which held his old friend the blue jar.
 As he talked with Cltmentine--a little constraint being apparent on both sides he toyed with the lid of the jar, and the slant eyed mandarin appeared to wink at him three times very knowingly.
 Under some occult Lut imperative pressure Randall removed the lid and touched with his finger tho silken texture of some mysterious contents.
 Curiosity further constrained him, and he pulled from the bosom of the now jubilant mandarin pale blue ar ticle of singular descr ption' for a parlor ornament, and following it, be extri- cated pale pink strip of similar shape and structure.
 Turning to Clemeltino for explana- tion of these unforeseen appartions, he found her speechless with wild eyed as tonishment, and, without word or gesture, she seized the old blue jar and hurled from the room.
 Randall smiled he first real, soul felt, refreshing smile that he lad indulgod in for several months, and vowed by the pigtail of the old slant eyed that he would stgy rooted to inc spot until Clenentiue returned.
 What she said te the genius of the jar as she flew up stairs with it only the mandarin can reveal,
 As Randall paced the parlor, pulling his mustache and wandering if Clemen- tines keen sense of humor would carry her safely through the trying hour, she came shamefacedly nto the room, bear ing in one hand the blinking old man. darin, and in the otl,er the pleading let ter he had borne so long hid in his clever old bosom,
 Randall met the dear girl moro than half way, and as sle whimpered gently on his shoulder, he promised never, never, never to tell
 And when they were married, if you believe me, that ridiculous old ginger jar accompanied then on their wedding trip, and Randall packed tho bosom of the grotesque mandarin full of Clemen- tines bridal roses, there to fade, and there forever to remain. Now, as Randall never told, and Clem- entine never told the entire responsi- bility of this revelation lies between you and me and the ginger jar.--Emma Carleton in Romance.

 There was drift like rain, His robe, as white as milk,
