was incessant, like the independent

ness just before the enjoyable charge on
big Aldershot field day. We kept q
constant watch and fred when possible,
but as we were against the skyline the
enemy had a much better sight Of us
than we had of them. However, from
behind our little wall we could laugh
and say, "Kale oral" ("Good morning
to your. as the bullets howled past.
By the way, the voice Of a bullet
varies There is the thin high whistle,
to which no one pays any attention aft
er the first half hour. There is the pro-
longed moan, 1.-THE cry Of q lost spirit. I"
as novelist might say. There is the
wolfish howl, which for some reason al
ways seems to be taking one on the
flank instead Of fairly in front, and last
Of all there is the low, i'll tempered
buzz, as though the nasty thing had got
out Of bed the wrong side, a. children

cially If it suddenly stops as the bullet
strikes something close at hand. It was

1.-THE WORLDS DESIRE"

That most enigmatical book, The Worlds Deisre," leaves the reader m a state of moral and mental confusion as to what the one thing is which IS to be desired by all men above all things. It is not difficult to find out, how ever, that among ordinary men and women the desire for well made and effective clothing is as overwhelming as amy other. The majority of us are not wealthy enough to warrant our indulging in the rich and beautiful things which our souls love. What we can desire is to possess tasty, well made and at no great expenditure of money. They cannot either be ex- tremely Luxurious or extremely fash ionable, nor on the other hand need they bear the stamp of hard times. Mrs. Stein has fine assortment of ready made clothing, of quality and style which will suit the most fas- tidious, and at prices which place them within the reach of the average wage earner. During this week she will sell all articles at greatly reduced prices and all should pay her visit and go through her large stock before buying elsewhere.

SERMON ON TOTAL DEPRAVITY

The last sermon in the series at the Baptist church was on Total Deprav- ity" Total depravity and total had ness are two very different things. A wicked man may have excellent quail ties. Napoleon BOnaparte and Aaron Burr were cited as examples. It is the intent and not the act which deter mines crime. IA man may kill an- other and not commit murder, and he who shoots at and misses a fee may be a murderer att heart. General Go- meg was as much of a rebel in the sight of Spain when he first enlisted in the Cuban army as after he had crossed the trocha a dozen times. The derivation of the word depravity was referred to. The adjective, total, is improperly joined to this word. It means crooked. We can speak of to- tai darkness, but not properly of total crookedness. DepraNity is an inclira- tion toward evil state of the soul in which it is easier to do wrong than to do right It was because of this sinful inclination of human nature 1that Christ came to the world to straighten it. and to give to man now the sauhe opportunity to obey God athat human nature had before it was twisted by sin

 There was hot season and nearly a homicide in the block early on Sun 1 day morning. A colored gambler and another man had been sitting tn a game of pangingue all the night be- fore. A dispute arose regarding the cashing of the chips and the white man employed the argument of a ' un. The colOred man acquiesced until he caught the other off his guard and cov- cred him with "a bigger gun. Then the White man became polite and acqui- escent. He also cashed the chj ps. The colored gambler, mot to be outdone in polIteness, observed court etiquette and backed out of che door. All the | time he put am extra frill on tEa eti- l quette. He kept his gun pointed at l his polite friend, and whan he reached I the door he jumped ouJ and to one side and at the same iuistart a bullet crashed through the door so close to his stomach he thought his vest was punctured by the ball.
