Wrestling with shadows black and grim.

CALVARY BAPTIST CHURCH.


 Rev. pr. Thomas of Newton Theologl-
 cal Seminary Preached Morning and Evening.
 At the Calvary Baptist church yes- terday morning and evening Dev. Dr. l. B. Thomas of the Newton Theological seminary preached. He took as his text at the morning service Phillipans ?, 12 and 13. Therefore, my beloved as ye have always obeyed, not in my presence only, but how much more in my absence, work out your own saliva tion with fear and much trembling. For | it is God which worketh in you both
 to will and to do of His good pleasure"
 Dr. Thomas said that this text came to
 us battle-scaITed with the conflicts of the ages In ore part of the text one party of thinkers have intrenched them selves in one part of the text and as- sert that salvation comes through our
 own work, while another party using another portion of tte text asserts that salvation is the work of God. But this | text is not paradoxical, The apparent | paradox is used to quicken thought. | The two phrases are intended to teach | two sides of the truth contained in the text Salvation comes to the heart from God and the man is judicially saved, but he has to work out the sal vation that is in him by leading con- | sistent Christ-like life. To illustrate, it | took only about day to get the Israeli
 ties out of Egypt, but it took forty years to get Egypt out of the Israel | ties.

AN ADMIRER OF WOMEN.

I was riding along the road leading across Hurricane Gap, in the Pine Mountain range, thinking of tie pecu- liar people who lived in these fastness- es, when I was startled by voice up the hillside calling to me to come up and give somebody a lift. I had no idea who owned the voice. but whoever it was was in trouble, and I responded and found man of sixty or more caught by the foot under a fallen tree and unable to get away. He wasn't hurt, and I soon had him on his feet. and he insisted on my stopping further down the mountain and taking dinner with him. He lived in well-kept cab- in with his daughter, and after dinner we sat in the shade of tree in the yard, and he told me about himself
 Air you married?" he asked, after he told me he was a widower.
 NO, but I hope to be some day." I answered, quite sincerely.
 You ought to be; every man ought to be; a man that ain't ain't showin' a right feelin' to'rds what the Lords done fer him; thar ain't nothin' on the face uv Gods green earth that is a patchin' to woman. I don't keer what kind she is
 You're hale and hearty yet" I said, "and I don't see why you don't take some of your own advice"
 Don't crowd the mourners, mister" he said, waving his hand as if warding off my attack. Don't you crowd the mourners. I'm figgerin' on severl this very minute, and I ain't quite shore yit which one to pick. I've been married four times. and every time my notions uv womn has got so much higher that I'll be derned ef I don't kinder look forred to losin' wife jist fer the satis- faction uv gittin' another one
 The idea was so entirely new that was overcome by it-Washington Star.

HAYDEN RESCINDs VOTE.
Voters Decide That Road Repairs sha

Voters Decide That Road Repairs Shall
 Not be Let Out by Contract.
 At a special town meeting Saturday afternoon the voters of Hamden re- scinded a measure passed at the annual town meeting in October providing that the selectmen should advertise for bids for the repair of the roads for the next five years. The seIectmen have not ad- verl lsed and mandamus proceedings to compel them to do so have been begun by some citizens. The resembling of the vote Saturday will be entered as an an- swer to the relators in the mandamus proceedings, alleging that they delayed action till the special town meeting. The relators deny the right to do this.
