The Yale expositor. (Yale, St. Clair County, Mich.) 1894-current, 1900-07-13

A ragged coat often covers a warm
Soact, while many an embroidered
waistcoat has nothing better under it
than heartburn.

Even in these days of high power,

The telegraph line, begun five years
ago to connect Victoria Nyanza with
the east coast of Africa, has been COM
pleted. One of the practical uses of the
line will be to give warning to Lower
Egypt of the state of water on the
Upper Nile, information that will in
some cases be worth millions Of dollars
10 the people of Lower Egypt, who
depend on the river for their irriga-
ton water. The railway which is be-
ing built along the same route is now
in operation to Kin, about 270 miles
inland. To complete the remaining
400 miles will require three years.

Pure Below the Surface.

Again, the grace of God is like salt
in the way we come at it, The salt
on the surface is almost always i'm
pure-that which incrusts the Rocky
mountains and the South American
pampas and in India; but the miners
go down through the shafts and
through the dark labyrinths and along
by galleries of rock and with torches
and pickaxes find their way under the

nations wealth. To get to the best
saline springs of the earth huge ma
chinery goes down. boring depth be-
low depth, depth below depth, until
from under the very roots of the
mountains, the saline water supplies
the adueduct This water is brought
to the surface and is exposed in tanks
to the sun for evaporation, or it is
put in boilers nightly heated, and the
water evaporates, and the salt gathers
at the bottom of the tank-the work
is completed and the fortune mace.
So with the grace OF God. II is to be
profoundly sought after. With all the
concentrated energies of body, mind
and soul we must dig for II. No man
stumbles accidentally on 1t. We need
TO go down to the very lowest strata
Of earnestness and faith to find it,.
Superficial exploration will not turn
It up. We must strive and implore
and dig until we strike the sprng
roaming with living waters. Then the
work of evaporation begins, and as
when the saline waters are exposed to
the sun, the vapors float away, leav-
ing nothing but the pure white salt
at the bottom of the tank. so, when
the Christian soul Is exposed to the
Sun of Righteousness, the vapors OF

so beautiful or beautifylng as the
grace of God. Go all through the deep
mine passages of Wiellezka and amid
the underground kingdoms of salt in
Hallstadt, and show me anything so
exquisite, so transcendently beautiful
