JONATHAN EDWARDS
THE MODERN PROPHET
"His the Greatest Mind america Has
Ever Produced" Says DR.. Radcliffe.

Jonathan Edwards, preacher, philoso-
pher, naturalist, teacher, author, theolo-
gian, and Christian gentleman, has re-
ceived still another title.
He was the modern prophet said
DR.. Radcliffe, In the New York Avenue
Presbyterian Church, last evening. The
sermon dealt with the life and achieve
ments of tho eminent divine.
"Dispassionate critics acknowledge his
the greatest mind America has ever pro-
duced. Others have believed him the
wisest philosopher since Plato.
1T took three generations to produce
such a life and power. He was an intel
lectual prodigy, who studied Latin at FIVE
years of age, at eight made scientific
observations and notes about the spider,
at twelve discussed the materially of the
soul. at thirteen entered Yale. at fifteen
collated his celebrated notes of the mind
and natural science, at sixteen gradu-
ated, at twenty wrote his Seventy Reso-
lutions. giving an ideal of life worthy of
a Franklin. and at twenty-five had be-
gun his life work
He was trained in the atmosphere of
the church. He grew in divine favor as
he grew in years, and with great power
he narrates his entrance into the great
consciousness of spiritual life through
the contemplation OF the majesty and
grace of God"

PASTORS FIRST ANNIVERSARY.

The congregation OF the First Baptist
Church, Sixteenth and o Streets north
west, yesterday celebrated the first an
niyersary OF the Rev. Charles F. Win
blgler as their pastor. The pulpit was
nearly hidden behind a bank of flowers.
and the sermon was made appropriate

viewed the work of the year. declaring
the preliminary difficulties overcome.
He said that his aim had been to preach
on spiritual rather than material sub

that whether present or absent we may
be accepted Of him."

INSPIRATION OF NATURE
TOLD BY DR.. PARS0N
He Draws Lessons From Vacation Time
Observations.

The. Rev. DIR. William E. Parson. pas
tor of the Church of the Reformation,
occupied his pulpit yesterday for the
first time in two months. His vacation
was spent in the mountains of Pennsyl-
vania and on the coast OF Maine. and this
gave him the inspiration for his sermon
He paid tribute to nature and pointed
out how often men fail to see its beau
ties because they will not open their
eyes. perhaps because the weather is
damp or because their are mosquitoes"
THE sea- he said. SIS eloquent OF
Gods purpose. You cannot fence in the
Atlantic. And the wonder is that after
all the thousands of the unwashed have
bathed in it. after the communicating
things have run down into it. the sea is
yet pure salt and wholesome. as at first
Here is parable OF God. We battle In
His purity. we are washed and made
clean"
DR.. Parsons said the Maine prohibition
law had a good moral eject, especially
in the country villages where Il is gen
orally enforced. He described his visits
to the one saloon in one Of the cities. He
went down a dark stairway into a room
glaring with lights. where drinks we're
served. "A hole in the ground" he call
ed 1t. such as any decent man would be
ashamed to visit. Such saloon. he said,
was better than those in Washington
which are invitingly placed on the open
street, as a constant temptation.

A DISAPPEARING STREAM.
The Dry Fork of Ashley Creek, 1
Northwe tern Utah.

The Dry Fork of Ashley Creek, In
Northwe tern Utah.
Some curious revelations are being
made by the United States geological
survey.
A recent report from G. T. Prall, one
of the photographers of the survey. has
reported the existence of stream
whose water in the summer season,
entirely vanishes midway in its course.
The river is known as the Dry Fork,
small stream in northwestern Utah,
tributary to Ashley creek. About four
teen miles from it's source in the Uinta
mountains this stream reaches large
basin or sink whose walls are from
75 to 100 feet high, except on the up
stream side. The pool is apparently bot
tomless, and the water in it revolves
with a slow, circular motion, caused
either by the incoming waters or by
suction from below, or both. The only
visible outlet to this pool is a narrow
rock channel, from which little water
flows, but is soon lost to sight few
hundred yards below. A measurement
of the main stream just above the pool
showed a volume of 96 cubic feet of
water passing each second, but this en-
tire flow disappears in the basin, and
the stream bed for miles below is per-
fectly dry. About seven miles below
this interesting pool were found several
springs, one of them in a large hole
twenty-five feet in diameter and twenty
feet deep, which at times are empty
and again filed with water. 1t is
thought that the water which disap-
pears in the upper pool flows under
ground deep below in the gravels which
form the bed of the stream, and in
times of rainfall heavier than usual
appears again in part in the large
springs below. W.-Atlanta Constitution

Homework Good Exercise.

There are plenty Of women who
scorn housework but are devoted to
gymnasiums. Now the best of all
round. indoor exercise is to be found
in the manifold duties of housekeep-
ing. Bedmaking, sweeping, busting,
even cooking, bring more than one set
of muscles into play, and none of them
is more destructive to the beauty Of
the hands than gymnasium work and
outdoor games. We are not advOcat-
ing the performing Of all the home du-
ties, without assistance of any kind
but of parts of them. OF course If
you have a liking for the work, and
the strength, do it all if you want to,
but this is not advisable unless lack
of money is the inducement. There
are so many ways in which time can
be profitably spent.

When to Accept.

Discussing the all-important subject
Of proposals, the author Of How to
Choose a Husband" remarks: 1.-The
first thing in choosing the husband is
to realize what sort Of man you ought
not to choose. My advice to all girls
is, first, to refuse at all hazards the
man who proposes at a dance, because
there is a glamour about a ballroom,
and men often say at dance what
they wish unsaid the following morn
ing. At picnics, what with washing
up, carrying baskets and opening bot
ties, girls cannot only judge of mans
character, but it will be quite safe to
accept a proposal made at one, espe-
cially if it is made before luncheon"

For Those Tiresome Monent..

While you are arranging the parlor
just have a thought for the visitors
who might sometimes wait to see you,
and carefully refrain from putting
every object of interest beyond their
reach. OF course, as careful host
ess, you never mean to keep callers
waiting; but IL they come when the
baby is on the eve of dropping to
sleep or you are in the midst of plan
ming dinner with the cook, you must
delay little, while they are reduced
to staring out of the window or to an
involuntary effort to penetrate some
magnificent household secret.

In moments like these; but is there
not something akin to indelicacy in

Mother Wisdom.

NAoShCT NASoohs
Perhaps a bit Of personal experience
may be interesting to some one. l am
one of the many busy mothers and
housekeepers whose work Is never.
done, and finding awhile ago that the
monotony of my life was causing me
TO grow morbid, l tried to think of
some way in which 1 could vary my
work, and thus get the change which
was SO evidently needed.
Before the children came had taken
great enjoyment in music and English
literature, but both had been sadly neg
lected of recent years, owing to other
demands upon my time and strength.
therefore decided that every morn
ing after the chambers were put air
ing, the dishes washed, and the chill
dren started for school l would Sit
down at the piano and practice for
fifteen minutes on some Of the pieces
which L had played years before, as
new pieces would be discouraging.
Then, after dinner, l cleared the ta-
BILE, and before attacking the army OF
dishes which always awaits the house
keepers unwilling hands at that hour,
] lay down on the couch, and instead
of reading the daily paper, whose rec
ords of murders, suicides and defalca-
tons is so depressing, selected one Of
the poets whose works had given me
much pleasure In my school days, and
spent half an hour in his society. The
result after a few days was noticeable.
While at work on the dishes before
mentioned, strains of music from the
practice Of the morning, or thought
from the poem read at noon, would
float through my mind, affecting me so
pleasantly that l have decided to con-
tinue the custom indefinitely.
If we wish to train our children
Alright, we must have beautiful
thoughts, but as the springs in the
mountains would fail to supply the
brooks were it not for the rains, so
our springs of thought will become, ex-
hausted unless they are occasionally
replenished.
Bible reading with the children for
five minutes every morning smooths
things for the day wonderfully, and
they grow SO accustomed to 1t as to
ask for it themselves If it should by
chance be forgotten.
Better by far omit some of the end
less busting and putting to rights than
to starve our minds by neglecting to
use some of the beautiful things God
has given us to nourish them. All may
not care for poetry and music, but we
all can appreciate half-hour's rest,
-
kind. A complete change of thoughts
is what is necessary if we are to rest.
1 hope some tired mother will try the
plan mentioned. and reap the benefit
which will surely come from it If she
is persistent-Mrs. Marian L. Ward in
