The Adventists, following the ex-
ample of the Arabs, have ''folded
their tents and stole away" Their
meetings lasted week and were
quite interesting, several able speak
ers being present. Everything was
conducted with strict propriety and
with the best of order. A fairly good
attendance was had throughout. The
great burden of the preaching was to
show that the true Sabbath was the
seventh day, and that this baby earth
was nearing grand wind-up, when
it would be purified, by fire, and fit
ted for little handful of saints, so
few, in fact, that the good Lord
might fl up some little desert place
for them and let the rest of US stay
aw hile. Without doubt these people
are perfectly sincere and honestly be-
lieve what they preach, and are enti-
tied to respect for their zeal and the
full enjoy ment of their religion. This
was accorded them here. they were
listened to attentively and treated re-
spectfully.

A Bridal Joke.

Two families Were recently greatly
disturbed over telegram. A son and
daughter of these families had married
and gone away on bridal tour of three
weeks or month, as the case might be.
Two days after the three weeks were up
the brides parents received telegram,
which read:
Have had row with my husband. Am CON-
Ing home. KITTY.
70 say this was not startling would
be to say what was not true, and the
brides parents at once haStened to the
heme of the groom's parents, only to
find there similar message, except that
it read, "Have had row with my
wife. Messages We're wired at once,
but no replies were received, as the cou-
pie had evidently started home imme-
diately after they had sent their COM
munications. Then there followed an
anxious waiting, and SO hours later the
happy couple turned up smiling, with the
explanation that it was a row on the
river they were talking about, and they
weren't to blame if the telegraph didn t
pronounce words correctly. Detroit

The statistics relative to tho expendi-
ture of the chief European countries
upon their armies and navies become
more significant when it is remembered
that the money thus spent is borrowed
money. OF all the European govern
ments that of England is the only one
which, so to speak, is paying its way.
The remainder are living on loans. As
a consequence they are all augmenting
their national debts. Between 1870 and
1887 the national debt of France was
increased by ~, 900, 900 francs, that Of
Russia by II, 900, 900, that of Italy by
3, 1872, 900, 600, that of Austria Hungary
by 4,019, 000, 900, that of Germany by
something like the same sum, that Of
Spain by 800, 900, 600 and so on. Even
the smallest states are heavy borrowers,
Belgium having added almost as much
to her obligations as Spain, while the
Roumanian debt has been augmented to
the extent of 701, 900, 900, that of Ser

)UTH LONDONDERRY, VT. FRIDAY MORNING. JULY 1894.
statement concerning Christ,

statement concerning Christ. lie
seems to be carried along, as it were
by the glowing thought of Christs SUI
premacy, and makes this statement.
The full meaning seems to be all
that which is filled up in God, that is,
makes up the totality of the divine
perfections, the completeness Of the
divine character, All that makes up
God resides in Christ by Gods own
good pleasure, This fullness was
made manifest in the life of Christ in
his work and in his character.
|. In him was fullness of light to
illuminate.
Christ's own words to his disciples
were these ~ am the light of the
world, he that followeth me shall not
walk in darkness but shall have the
light of life" Again he says "While
am In the world l am the light of the
world" John says of him SIN him
was life and the life was the light of
men" as the sun the great illuminator
arises to warm and cheer and promote
life On the earth, sc in the truest sense
does Christ, the great illuminator of
the soul, gather and centralize the
rays of light from the throne of Gods
glory, and diffuse them throughout
the world. Every miracle Christ per-
formed was ray of light from God,
revealing his nature to men. Every
scoff he bore, every wrong he forgave
even when he cried upon the cross,
"Father forgive them for they know
not what they do" all these were rays
of light from the unseen God, reveal
ing his nature to mankind. As the
light reveals all untidinesss in the
house so does Christ, the Son of
righteousness, reveal the untidy cor
ners in the chamber of the heart.
IL. Fullness of strength to make
his salvation sure. The prophet Jere-
miah in his prophecy of final deliver
ance of the children of Israel SAYS,
Their Redeemer is strong, the Lord
of hosts is his name" He is strong
to deliver and strong to support !;
strong to rescue men from the iron
grasp Of sin. Therefore his name is
called Jesus for he shall save his
people from their SINS" Thus do we
find in Christ completeness and we
who flee to him for refuge shall find
in him all we need, for righteousness,
sanceifioation and redemption.

Early in the morning the people began
to arrive and at ten o'clock the streets
of our neighboring village was well
filled. At this time the Antiques and
Horribles put in an appearance and
made a very creditable display.
Between ten and eleven procession
was formed for the march to the grove.
A pleasing feature of this was finely
decorated car, drawn by pair Of
horses, on which was raised pedestal
occupied by one Of Londonderry's fair
daughters, Miss Cora Garfield, repre-
senting the Goddess of Liberty beneath
the stars and stripes. The procession
was formed as follows: Londonderry

the grove were of the usual order with
an address by Hon. j. G. Martin of
Manchester Centre and toasts and re-
sponses.
In the afternoon the tug Of war con-
test and the various races and a ball
game filled out the time. In the first
named Londonderry and a Peru team
pulled for the honors and purse Of
ten dollars. The Londonderry team
won. In the bicycle race Charlie Bel
den took first prize and Lyle Pierce
second. In the foot race, over ten
Charlie Foy came in first. In the rac'
under ten, Bert Mundell. The bal
game was between Manchester ant
Londonderry and resulted in a big bea
for the former % to 13.
Taken as whole the celebration
was success and reflected credit upol

AT THE CHURCHES.

At the Methodist church Mr.. Sisson |
took for his text the 10th verse of the lst. |
chapter of john
Nathaniel said unto him Can there
any good thing come out of Nazareth
Phillip saith unto him Come and see."
He first referred to scepticism and said
that it had existed all through history,
and that it began in the garden of Eden
and was seen in the days of Noah all
through the old dispensation, and so far
during the new and no doubt would con-
tinue to be seen down to the end of time
After covering this point the longing
common to all mankind for something
better was taken up, the speaker saying
that this longing is in part satisfied by
the promise we find in Gods word of a
future life. Mention was next made Of
Bible critics and how there are many who
not only criticize but also deny its truth.
We quote In part the words of the preach
er on this point:
"If the Bible is not true then we are
left without a guide-all in the dark.
Our conversion is a farce and the assur-
ance we have of redemption is only a
creature of our imagination But we be-
regulate our conduct by the word of God,
satisfied with the return such conduct
brings. If the Bible had been common
book it would long ago gone out of ex-
istence, but being an uncommon book it
has stood and will stand and continue to
be the power of God unto salvation to all
who believe. True we find in it some
things which we cannot understand but
wefoah understand that man is sinner
and Christ is Saviour
Following this the speaker called at
tention to the willingness of Nathaniel
to go with Phillip and see whether Naz-
areth had produced any good thing and
closed saying:
"Would that every one who is scepti-
cal concerning religion might come and
see for themselves. The followers of
the Lord Jesus have something more last
ing than Il little bosom comfort, and YOU
who ar@not walking by the Saviours
side have only to seek in order to find.
Christ is waiting to welcome you. God
the father is waiting to place upon you
the seal of adoption. Come and see If
any good has come out of Nazareth. No
one who truly sought to find Jesus was
ever disappointed in their search
"Then saith he to Thomas reach hther
thy finger and behold my hands and reach
hither thy hand and thrust it into my side
and be not faithless but believing. And
Thomas answered and saidssMy Lord and
my God" Come and see, reach forth the
hand and be able to say, as did Thomas,
My Lord and my God
