CHINA PAINTING.
Attractive Design for Plates and
Narcissus Decoration for

Within the past few years the art Of china
decoration has been a most popular pas
time and a profitable business to many.
The mode of coloring is simplified and
much improved with the advance in this
work. and the demand is for better class
of designs than formerly were placed be-
fore the public. they being for the most
part decidedly crude and inartistic.
The Philadelphia Inquirer gives a conven-
tional design for decorating q set of plates,
either breakfast. soup; dinner, dessert or
fruit plates. and a design for decorating
tea caddy, biscuit jar, rose or even tray.
The design for plates can be easily painted
by an inexperienced person, as it requires
simple tinting and the shading of the
cut will guide one in shading the colors
from dark to light.

Ny window shows.
The road oft-trodden, lies between,
And under leaves with fitful CLEAN.
Now shadowed forth, now family seem
The brooklet flows.
A cottage rises to the right.
With chimneys gray.
And over all the sunshine bright
Goes down to meet the coming night.
While weaving with his golden Light
The passing day.

With wooden piers,
"A bridge is bending oer the stream.

Bring swift a half-unfolded dream

'"The Son OF Man came to seek and to
save that which Ia lost"
Man has always been a failure. Talk
about man getting better. Man away
from God has always been failure God
has always been seeker after him. God
don't want man TO be lost. Think of
God, the, Creator, standing before man
and saying sRepent.' Some sbullies.' they
don't amount to much. except to talk;
they try to measure arms sometimes with
the work of God. It don't amount to
anything, Christians, God don't want to
have fuss with you. He would have
you saved. It's your fault If you don't
come and be saved.
The reason so many are not saved, Is
because Jesus can't find Sinners You
are self-righteous men, but he came to
save sinners. II YOU are sinner. don't
hug your morality. Come to Jesus and
tell him you are sinner. go to tho jail
in Macon on Sunday afternoons to talk
with the inmates. I can't hardly find
sinner there. They pretend innocence.
You sinners in Roanoke are hiding here
in Roanoke. Some are afraid to come to
these meetings.
Jesus is hunting for the sinners of
Roanoke. Hear Him as he comes along.
He wants to save the barkeepers here.
He wants to save the boys and girls. He
may never come by you any more. The

''The devil alwaysgets move on him
when such an interest is in any comElu-
nifty. He'll get up Il german if nothing
else. I'll tell you the last time will come
to you. When these sudden deaths were
occurring in Roanoke did you think God
was calling. Gods calling you, Chris
tians. You don't attend your prayer
meeting and Sunday services Jesus
wants us to come down. We've got our
opinions. We don't like the preaching.
We have our IDEAS Give up your ideas.
Come down and meet Jesus. Some If
you say you won't be converted in u tent

will you be converted anywhere else until
you are ready to be converted anywhere
and anyhow.
''I've seen very few Of the pastors OF
the city here. Wonder why, The Holy
Spirit is here. Souls are crying for help.
Brethren, why not come in and help save
the souls. These converts are to fill I'D
the different churches. Why not come
in here and help in the work.

\ DELIGHTFUL AFFAIR.

The concert at the Second PRESBYTERIAN
Church last night though fairly we'll at
tended did not have the large audience
which the special merit of the entertain
ment deserved. The concert was given
by the members of the Arion Club, assisted
by other local talent and consisted mostly
of vocal music, the only Instrumental
pieces being n piano duet by Misses Rust
and Dorney and a piano solo, "Cinqmime
Nocturn," by Prof. w. b. Buddo, both of
which were splendidly executed by the re.
spective performers. The vocal trio, "Row
us Swiftly,"by Misses Beckley and DOYLE
and Mrs. Lyons was beautifully rendered
and cnptivated all who heard it. The
vocal solo, Burst Ye Apple Buds,' by
Miss Annie Moomaw was a sweet song
sweetlv sung,as was also the vocal solo by
Miss Iiela Beckley. All the other num-
bers were most delightfully."- rendered and
none more so than those sung by the Arion
Club. Among those taking part in the
concert besides those already mentioned
were the following: Misses Walthall, Sc
horn, Doyle, OFT, Gehrett, Vaughan, Nc.
Ilwaine, Helen Somerville and Mary
Somerville, DIesdames Lyons, Buford,
Morris and Nc Ilwaine, Messrs. Scatch.
ard, Lacy, Anderson, Miller, Snyder,
Gray, Heston, Lyons and Kregloe. In
view of the great success 'sof the concert
from an artistic standpoint, it is hoped
another one will be given by the same
participants before very long, to give
those who missed the rare treat of last
night IN opportunity of listening to most
delightful music.

The text for last nights sermon was
from Acts 80, "silyer and gold have
none, but such as I have give unto
thee"
'There is great deal being said about
silver and gold,,n said DR.. White, shut
for nv part either Is good enough for me;
but there are some things which are bet
ter than either silver and gold aud OF
those better things will talk about to-
night. a.
s.Religion is better, and want to talk
to you about some things religion will do
foryou.
sReligion gives us life. You are living,
but YOU cannot enjoy the fullness Of life
into your life He breaks the power of sin
and you becomes new creature. If you
are bound to sin, you are q servant of sin
and Christ alone can break the chain that
binds you.
"If Christ comes into your slife He
gives you power to live without sin,
power to overcome sin IL YOU so desire,
and If you continue in sin 1t will be be-
cause you so desire and will not accept
the power to overcome.
'sIf you will allow Christ to come into
your heart He will take away the desires
for worldly amusements and in time Of
temptation will make the way Of escape
clear
Religion gives pleasure. Riches do
not always give pleasure.
"Religion gives us hope for the future;
nothing that this world can give will fur
nish us hope for the future ard rs we
stand by the new made grave what we
most need is religion. Religion assures
us of life beyond.''
Dr. White then closed his sermon with
an invitation to those who would accept
this religion to come forward and seven.
teen protested their faith.
