 It almost makes person tremb1e to think
 of the evil which he might do were he deserted of God. We are in such an era
 of defalcation in business. of embez.
 clement of trust funds, of absconding cashiers, of recreanr husbands and way

It makes one think of that old story of Bunyan, who saw one day man being led away to the gallows and ex- claimed, But for the grace of God there goes John Bunyan." It seems sometimes as though today all the temptations to wrong doing were doubled from what it was in the days of our fathers. Now we are all in hurry to get rich. And alas it is as true 2000 years after Christ as it was thousand years before Christ that they who make haste to be rich fall into temptation and snare. Moral earnest ness is needed to-day as never before. We need to take warning from the les sons of the word of Cod. See Abraham called the friend of God and yet telling cowardly lies when he goes down into Egypt. Jacob is true supplanter and thief, as his name implies, as he deceives his old father Isaac and steals his moth- er's blessing. Moses, the man of God, is angry and smites the rock when God only bids him speak to it and God shuts him out of Canaan. David, the sweet poet singer is proud and numbers the children of Israel and is led away by his passions to sin with Bathsheba. Solomon, the wisest of the wise, would be called in modern parlance little better than rake and debauchee, ,and even Paul, the great apostle, gets into quarrel with Barna- bas 80 that they go different ways to preach the gospel. Ah, friends, we are walking through great heaving sea of passions and appetites and sinful incli- It is only because God keeps back the waves that we are not Oyers

Of whisky. When Smith awoke at day
light, he found himself on a doorstep

three carat ring.

and afterward located his ring I'm a down
town pawnshop. From description given

LOUISVILLE, Sept 10.-Probably the
most important business that will be
transacted at the present encampment
will be the joining of the Woman's Relief
corps and the Ladies Of the G. A. II. in
one order While it has not been fully de-
termined TO do this, it will be recommend
ed, and the sentiment in its favor is such
that there is hardly doubt Of the con-
summation of the plan.
The Woman's Relief corps has expended
In the neighborhood Of $1,000, 600 in char
table purposes 1t works through all
channels while the other body, being con-
fined in its labors to the wives and rola-
tives Of veterans is necessarily limited. If
the proposed plan is carried out the work
will be on greater scale than has ever
been known before.
