UNMARRIED LIFE, ITS DANGERS
AND ITS PRESENT DAY EVILS"
Subject of Sermon at Tabernacle This Afternoon
Closing of Second Weeks Services.

as desolation, and your destruction
cometh as a whirlwind, when distress
and anguish cometh upon you. Then
shall they call upon Me, but | Will not
answer; they shall seek Me early, but
they shall not find Me; for that they
hated knowledge and did not choose
the fear of the Lord. They would none
of My counsel; they despised all My
reproofs. Therefore, shall they eat or
the fruit of their own way, and be
filled with their own devices.
Can God put the sin and its fatal
result in palmer language? Again He
says, Hear we, and give ear; be not
proud; for the Lord hath spoken. Give
glory to the Lord your God, before He
causes darkness, and before your feet
stumble upon the dark mountains, and
while We look for light, He turned it
into the shadow of death and make it
gross darkness
Friend, as certainly as Gods holy
spirit has convicted you of sin and led
you to see clearly the way Of saliva
ton, and you turn away for the
pleasures Of unrighteousness, and to
ease your conscience, give in your
heart some false excuse as the men in
the text did, Just so certain then and
there you are doomed for hell.
You may think that you will be
saved afterward, but God will let you
be blinded with lie that you may
never be saved. 1t may be infidelity,
or religious error or an empty church
membership. But, Some way you will
be blinded and cut off from salvation
ever afterward. God loves you. He
sent the Saviour to die for your sins,
He tells you that you have everlasting
life the moment you accept the Saw
Jour- and all He asks is your service
from love afterwards. But He warns
you that He will not be trifled with.
After you see the way of salvation
you may trifie, but it will cost you
your souls salvation"
At the close of the sermon thirty
one people went forward and made a
public profession of their accepting the
Saviour. 1t was a solemn scene as the
people passed forward to make their
public confession of their faith. This
afternoon the evangelist breaches on

The congregations at the Tabernacle

care1essly-though any bachelor could
see that he would rather have lugged
a cigar or cane. But there was the
compensation of having people make
goo-goo eyes at the fat, rosy baby and
he had quite chesty air, out at Thun-
derbolt and on the cars.
The afternoon wore away, and the
novelty of bracing up every time some
body looked his way played out and
in his conversation monosyllables were
the chief part while his mind wander
ed back to the office and the work of
the morrow.
His dreaming was rudely broken
when a transfer became necessary for
there in range of the quartette was
another bunch, and the man was car
rying the baby and the baggage. And
a gentle voice at his side remarked.
John, take the baby a little while.
Nurse is tired, and if you carry john
ME we can let the girl go home"
Johns face was a study in reds and
green's. The audience was on and he
knew it. To submit was a clean case
against him; and he could almost hear
his friends saying, poor fellow" as
he stood for moment undecided. Be-
tween love and duty he paused, duty
to the race of men to uphold their
sovereignty and dignity as the lords
of creation-love for his wife and off,
spring; and duty, stern and cruel pre-
vailed.
With a step that meant much he
left the group four feet in the rear;
stopped short, laid down the hand bag
gage, right in the street, and with
hands in the arm holes of his vest,
waited for the car. In the language
of the poets the last straw had dis
abled the dromedary; he might next
be asked to administer nourishment
via the bottle: and the succeeding trip
might be without the nurse, and he
be expected to push the babymobile.
With set features he waited. The
car came and madame quietly picked
up the satchel from the street, climbed
into the car and the nurse, with grin
in spite of her disappointment, follow
ed with the hopeful.
Mr.. Man got on the front seat, and
when the conductor struck him simply
waved over his shoulder to the party.
and paid for three. He had done his
duty and was ready to take the conse-
quences--but preferred not to have the
sequel enacted until the precincts of
home were reached.

nah is going ahead and has such a
lot of automobiles and that the mar
ket is good and many more are COM
ing. But do want the public and out
siders to know that the light pretty
traps and fine horses are yet good
form and will long continue so, in this
and other cities"
The liveryman was asked to give
some details, and said that there were
seven good-sized stables in Savannah,
with stock ranging from fifteen to
thirty-five horses and a suitable
number of carriages and traps. The
stablemen, all but one or two perhaps,
made a speciality of renting as we'll as
selling and boarding. The styles and
fashions in carriages and traps is
closely watched and the latest in pneu-
matte and cushion tires, fancy run
ming gear, etc, is to be found The
charges made for an afternoon drive is
reasonable, and the pastime is very
naturally popular. Some of the new
est traps now shown at the stables are
very handsome and attractive and the
horses are always in good condition
The city of Savannah and suburbs of
fer splendid opportunities for driving
and during the summer afternoons the
roads are filled with pleasure car
riages.
Some of the stables not only have
the lighter traps, but have invested in
larger vehicles with the especial idea
of accommodating large pleasure par
ties. The handsome break" recently
brought out by one of the stables Is
attracting considerable attention. 1t
comfortably seats twenty grown folks.
and can be made to carry a great many
more. if the picnic party isn't particu-
lar about having full legal space. There
are also some buckboards that will ac-
course, all manner of double and single
carriages, Surveys. victorias, etc.
