ToPIo.-Claiming the promises.-Isa. xl, 25-
81. "a promise meeting.)
The Bible teens with precious prom
Uses Of God to His people. The most
precious thing about all these promises
is the absolute certainty that they will
be fulfilled. "God is not man, that
He should lie; neither the Son of Man,
that He should repent" Some promises
are unconditional, and they will be I'M
conditionally fulfilled. Other promises
are conditional. and they are absolutely
certain of fulfillment if the conditions
are fulfilled.
The Importance Of claiming the prom
Uses OF God is apparent to all. Unless
we claim them they will not be fulfilled
toward us, and therefore might as
well have never been given so far as we
are concerned. To have the possibility
Of power and not to use it avails us no
more than if we did not have it. The
power may be there. but the important
thing is to use it.
We are encouraged to claim the prom
ises Of God for two reasons. /. Because
God has the power and ability TO fulfill
all he has promised. II one would prom
Use Us 81, 900 who did not actually pos

claim that promise God has promised

upon Israel to lead them to wait upon

He has made all things and controls

2. We are encouraged to claim God s
promises because God is not only able,
but willing to fulfill them. The prophet
calls him ''Unwearied. Men may be-
come weary of the petitions and re-
quests of their friends, but God is so
willing to help His own that He never
wearies. He has said through Christ,
ASK and ye shall receive; seek and We
shall find; knock and it shall be opened
unto you" And again Christ has told
us that His Heavenly Father is more
willing to give His Spirit to those that
ask Him than earthly parents are to
give good gifts to their children.
God has the power. God is willing. II
all rests with u.s. Do we believe God &

them? Do we claim their fulfillmenti
If we do not we should. Let us take God
at His word, and in trouble. in dis

MAKING A MINE.
In Some Instances It Costs Nothing In
Others the Cost Is Millions.

In Some Instances 1t Costs Nothing In
Others the Cost Is Millions.
There are no hard and fast rules in
regard to making mine from the time
it passes into the prospector's hands UNI
til it becomes dividend payer. Many
mines are such, as the miners say,
from the grass roots" and turn out
large quantities Of ore from the begin
ming.
j. b. Haggin, the millionaire mine
owner, took $3. 600, 900 from the Custer
mine, in Lemhi county, Ida. before
it became necessary to use candle
(giant POWDER This mine was known
as the Mineral mountain. A man came
along one day, and after looking at it
remarked, why, the hanging wall is
gone" This was true. Nature had as
sisted the miner in this case; the noun
tain side had been eroded, leaving the
mineral standing there. Mr.. Haggin
also spent about SO, 900, 900 in develop
ing the Anaconda mine before it was on
a paying basis.
Mines have been discovered contain
ing fabulous wealth, although pros
pector would starve to death in trying
to work them. This was true in regard
to the Homestake mine, in the Black
Hills. The prospectors who made the
discovery could do nothing with il, and
it passed into the hands Of Senator
Hearst and other California capitalists
They concluded that, unless it was
worked ON large scale, it could not be
made profitable. An so stamp mill was
ordered and shipped in from Cheyenne,
at cost Of $135, 900, as an experiment
The mine has paid in dividends $s7, 500
a month for II years.
1t requires a large amount OF money
usually to put mine ON dividend
paying basis, and, as rule, this the
prospector cannot do, although prospect
ors have made fortunes with their prop
critics. Spokane SpokesmanReview.

A friend who hailed recently from
Cairo told me this tale, as an illustra-
ton Of the dilatory ways Of Arabian
trades people:
"A certain gentleman ordered q
swing to DO erected in his garden for
the use Of his little boy, aged 9. BE
waited and waited, but the swing never
arrived. In due course Of time that boy
grew up to mans estate, and became
himself the father Of little boy.
when his son was years old, he
remembered how his own father had or
dered swing to be made for him. So
he called ON the tradesman, who lived
at his gate, and asked him to send up
the swing that had been ordered 90
years before The man agreed to do 80.
1.-THE little boy, becoming impatient
after three weeks, his father called
again, and demonstrated with the Ara.
bian as to his dilatoriness. The indig-
nant tradesman replied that he could
not really undertake to serve any one
who was in such fearful hurry. -
