Brief Lay Sermon.

The following is the brief lay sermon of
the Petersburg Inder-4ppeal OF Sunday,
April 9th:
The frat condition in the achievement
of success in business is to deserve sue
cess. The next lie, to attend to your own
business sbd waste no time ard effort in
meddlag with other peoples. You can
not build yourself up by pulling other
people down, and when you busy
yourself with other peoples affairs you
are signifying to mankind that you have
no affairs OF your own worth looking
after. Above all, vaunt not your own
honesty, for so did the Pharisee of old,
even IN the presence of those that knew
bis record. Men may practice the charity
of sill, nee, but they do not forget. Envy,
and malice. and like manner of meanness
are antagOnizing elements to business
success, and are tap-rOots of failure and
misery in life. II the reader feels any
further interest in this lay sermon, we
lovingly commend to him perusal of the
XTIIth chapter of Saint PauPs first epIstle
to Corinthians"

10 the Editor Of the SAN:
Sir, | am one eff those who are boxing

During the last week Of March saw
many supernatural signs of war. saw
in the clouds in the West. directly after
sunset one evening, a filming sword
some twenty-five or thirty yards long
1t remained only short time and vanish
ed. 4 few evenings after / saw IN the
same place something like a battlefield,
with decaying corpses, and wild beasts,
wolves, dogs, and birds of prey eating
them apparently. | also saw armies,
infantry and cavalry, mlrching from
North and South meeting together and
a stretcher twenty five OF thirty yards
long. aud Of an oval shape. between the
armies.
The third of April IN the afternoon
about o'clock saw the name CHRIST,
Christ, IN large Roman capitals in a
straight line under the sun, and down
under the right hand corner the figures
1898.
On Tuesday. the 10Th inst, saw about
4 o'clock p. NJ, i'm black letters across the
North the words Chicago Fair, August
Sth.' Chicago was in large printed or
Roman letters and seemed blurred with
a cloud over it, and was barely leGible
while the words Fair, August sth, were in
script and beautifully written. | looked
for the date of the year. but it was not
there. II only remained a short time, not
more than ten minutes alter | read it,
You will have to interpret tbs meaning,
also saw the same afternoon, inst before
the Chicago sign, what we think the sign
of the Battle OF "Armageddon.' We are
