oh, my friends, there has never been
such a ~nefariOus plot on earth as that
which infidelity and atheism have
planned. We were shocked a few years
ago because Of the attempt to blow up
the parliament houses in London, but II
infdelity and atheism succeed in their
attempt they will dynamite a world.
Let them have their full way. and this
world will be q hsbitation Of three
rooms habitation with Just three
rooms, the one a madhouse, another q
lazaretto, the other a pendemonium.
These infdel bands of music have only
just begun their concert-yea, they
have only been stringing up their in
struments. l to-day put before you
their whole programme from beginning

death the farce comes first and the trag-
edy afterward. And In the former
atheists and inhdels laugh and mock,
but in the latter God himself will laugh
and mock. He says so. Il will laugh at
their calamity and mock when their
fear cometh."

blinds so they cannot see It, or they may
smoke the pipe Of speculation until
they are Swallowed under their own
vaporing, but the Lord God IL the SUM-

Of earth and Heaven brought out by
this spiritual spectrum. Great Britain
