BILL ARP DISCUSSES TIME.
The Figures $1,000 Look Strange to the Philosopher They
Show Time is Flying and Soon Will Come Eternity

IL a man can dodge around the Goth
century question it is a fitting time for
him to consier the shrinkage of time
since he was a boy, and to ponder upon
the reason why the years grow shorter
and shorter as he grows older and wiser,
and how theperiod is surely coming
when there will be mo years or months
and time will be no more. According to
scripture this thing called time is per-
ishable elastic compressible creation
adapted to man in his state of probation
and not at all necessary to the creator
who said before the world was made
am" God always speaks of himself
in the present tense Il am" He is one
eternal now without beg inning of years
or end of days. We cannot compre-
bend this, but as we near the goal we
can almost catch glimpse of its posi-
bility. That time is compressible and
elastic all of us have experienced for
sometimes the hours seem very long
and sometimes very short. In our dreams
we sometimes condense hours and days
of events in a few delirious moments. l
never shall forget the anxiety and agony
of long effort to keep my brother from
fighting duel and how / helped to write
all the correspondence between HIM and
his adversary and how at the last the duel
could not be avoided and how | carefully
selected and loaded his pistol and meas
ured off the distance and then made an
other effort to pacify and adjust and pre-
vent the duel, but all in vain, and he
stood to the mark and fired and fell. The
report of a gun that was CRED back of
our house at a squirrel awaked me and it
was this report that condensed all the
Iol1g train of thought and events into a
moments space. My wife was sitting by
my edside with her hand upon my fever
ish b row and declared l had not been
asleep more than q minute-and yet l re-
mernbe. red every line ard word of that
corFespo udence, and when 1 recovered
from my, fever could repeat it. The time
of hours was condensed into moments.
Just SO tn ose who were thought to be
drowned I'D were resuscitated tell us
that a panor ANA of their whole life came
before them as they lost consciousness.
Every wor an d thought and deed from
every scene they had witnessed from
their childhood was as vivid and real as
if it were just transpiring. There can be
no doubt about this experience of many
persons 1t is well confirmed.
We are just on the verge of know
ing wonderful things and my faith is
that we will know when we put off this
mortal coil and our souls are released
and free. We have implanted within us
a spark of divinity, but only a spark
But alas how little we do know and
how utterly helpless we are We know
not whence we come, nor whittier we
are going. We cannot make one hair
white or black. We cannot tell by what
mysterious power we raise our hands
or move our feet or wink our eyelashes.
We cannot add day or an hour to our
