The Control of The Neat House.


The idea that the control of the
next house would mean nothing
to the Dem ocrats in their next.
presidential Campaign is mis-
taken one one. The carrying OF
the House by the Democrats Just
prior to the election of 1876, had
a good Zeal to DO withethe enor-

TilGen. And, again, the organize

Women After Marriage.

Women should not think, after
marriage, that they have no moro
need to keep themselves lovely
Much of the romance is worn
away by married life. A wife
should strive in many ways to hold
her husband. Don't rely entirely
on beauty-that will fade. A
sweet temper, a cheerful DISPOSE
tion, patience as far as possible.
Will work wonders. But too many
brides err in another direction
they neglect to advance intellec-
tually with their husbands. This
was the trouble with Dickens

a. IL. ktnsman, a Bible student
at Erie, Pa, declares he can
prove that there are no women in
heaven.
''Strange as it may SEEM" says
Mr.. Kinsman, ''there is not the
slightest evidences In the Bible
that females of any sort are an ong
the inhabitants of heaven. We
know that the members of the
Trinity are always spoken of as
men, and the disciples of Jesus
were all men. In both the Old
and New 'restaments when occa,
sion offered TO speak to rny ono
who had passed to the other side,
IL Was always man who been SO
artunate. And likewise when
prophet, saint or disciple had oc-
casion to mention anyone who
had reached heaven the name of
man was chosen.
$50, too, we find it in the case
of angels. There are Gabriel and
Micheal. but in all the named heav.
enly hosts there appears not one
femme name.
I'm this connection it is interest.
ing to note that in each case
where pron0un is used in refer.
ence to an angel masculine forms
are invariably fouad.'
Mr.. KiDsman also points out
the fact that all the evil spirits
mentioned in Holy Writ have
masculine names including Meph-
istophies himself. This may be
most readily tested in the book of
Revelation. In the New Tesla
ment man is said after his death
to be gathered to his fathers, not
unto hfs mothers.
After thus proving conclusive
ly to his own mind that there are.
no women in haven or hell, Mr..
Kinsman asks the rather nerve
not to say startling question,
"what does become of women at
ter deaths' He startles. US still
more by asking second ques-
ton, "Are they annihilated?'
Here arc three theories advan.
ced by the Bible student as to
what becomes of women after
deate:
First, that no women reach
heaven and are, those, annihllated
or 90 to some place of which the
Bibles makes no mention; Sec
ond, that women reach heaven,
but, In common with men, become
sexless, and there is hencefo.e g NO
distinction between them; Third,
that women reach heaven and be.
come males"
