teresting and sought after. In heaven In
proportion as you are martyrized Of perse-
cution and pain on earth. And surely you
do not want to get the advantage of heav.
emily association and consideration without
yourself adding some interest to the inter-
view. hail all the shut ins because they
will be the come outs. Heaven Will be all
the brighter for your earthly prirations
and environments. For a man who has
always lived In mansion, ana walked IN
line gardens, and RECALLED his appetite on
best fruits, and had warmest furs for win
ter, coolest linens for August heat, and
brilliant earthly surroundings, heaven
will not be so much change Of scene.
He will be disposed to say: why, I am
used to this Don't show me the gardens.
