The Glory of Immortality.

Does the winged moth long to return
to the creeping grub or the butterfly to
the cocoon? Will we when ono we have
put off this larva life for the glories of
immortality ever long to be back in the
empty shell where once we CROPPED in our
narrower years? Surely, exclaims the
United Presbyterian, there will be nc
mourning over the poor pathetic dust we
have left behind. The pearl as it glows
in the crown of the king, longs
for the old shell in the sea out of which
1t was taken, even against its will. And
although we may cling to these bodies
now as the very temples Of God and
think of their ultimate displacement
with a shudder Of pain, yet in the inHn-
tie realms, In the kingdom of the indy
ing, the glories which we shall know
will exclude the thought of the earthly
house" which we have left behind. We
will not need 1t, we will not want it, for
God has somesbetter things for us. Old
things will have passed away, all things
will have become new.

THE LORD IS MY HELPER.

My comfort is In this,
When any sorrow is
On land or sea-
! do not stand alone,
The fight Is not my own.
On land or sea.
Strength often / have none.
The battle must be won
Without my aid;
1t never can be lost.
God always has His host
Ready arrayed.
He is at my right hand,
And none can Him withstand,
Therefore I sing
The song of victory
Which faith brings for me,
And praise my King.
Why, therefore, am I sad?
His help should make me glad
And Danish fear.
I am not weak or poor:
/ can all things endure
When He is near.
God! be to all who move
What Thou hast. in Thy love
Aye been to me.
o God, the strong, the great.
No soul is desolate
That calls on Thee!

How to eradicate Mildew.

Mildew is very difficult to emove. One
method is to rub the spots with lemon
Juice and then with salt; another is to
wet them with warm water, rub on a lit
tie soap and sprinkle with powdered
French chalk and salt. Dry in the sun
and repeat the treatment If necessary.
II these methods fail, bleaching water
can be rescrted to. A simple bleaching
water is made by boiling a teaspoonful
Of borax in q quart of water.

BILE. But too often we wrap the man
tie of grief around our person, and, al
though the child's hand reaches out its
flowers, although the sky sends down
a CLINT Of smiling sunshine, although
there are waited to us some beautiful
burst of music which should lift US
up on its wing, we shut ourselves up
in our sorrow and say: No, we are too
down and dull to-day to be able to en-
terrain and accept joy. How often the
good love of God, therefore, through
surrounding our path, is sem away
abashed, disappointed and thwarted.
Thus all our life is needlessly shadow
ed by constant prohibition.
Q. On the contrary, st. Paul says:
Everything which God made is beau
tiful, and is not to be refused if it be
received with thanksgiving. It is OBJ
vious, therefore, that we have here q
principle to help us. 1t is better to lay
down as few rules as possible, and in
stead to enunciate great principles, be-
cause so often, If you lay down arbi-
trary rules for people, you simply drive
them to revolt; whilst if you will only
enunciate great principles which they
can apply for themselves to their whole
life, you make them strong and inde-
pendent. You can make a rule, but
not a principle: you can establish q
rule, but not a principle" A principle
is there before you come, and all you
can do is to discover and apply it.

CASE OF ARSON is
MADE AGAINST Him
oooDWATER OFFERS BEST CASE
OF FIRE MARSHAL LAW THAT
HAS YET DEvELoPED-MAN is
NOW IN JAIL.

Montgomery, December 21.-Special)-
w. o. Davis has been arrested at Good
water and lodged in jail charged with
burning the house of Annie L. Davis, his
wife, on the night of December 10, in
that town. An investigation was held
by order of e. r. McDavid state in
surance commissioner, there being pol
Icy of insurance on the property, and
the jury decided that Davis was guilty.
In his letter to the insurance commits
sioner Sheriff T. j. Tippett, who held the
investigation, says: You will see the
evidence shows that Joiner Zone of the
witnesses) saw the party set the house
on fire, but was not close enough to see
who it was. He ran around the house.
on the side from town to cut the party
off. The evidence of two other wit
nesses shows that it was w. o. Davis,
and that he went through the railroad
cut back toward town, and the jury
traced him clear back to where the wit
nesses swore they saw him running. Da-
Wis denies all of this. Davis has been
arrested and is in Jail, with the pros
poets of staying there until he is in
dicted and tried. You will observe from
the testimony of this case that when he
fired the house and ran out he lost his
hat and went to the house bareheaded,
and while he was there fighting fire he
got his hat This seems to be very clear
from the testimony"
This is one of the best cases yet de-
veloped by the state fire marshal law,
which has not been a bowling success.
Several times suspicious fires have been
looked into with no result. Two things
are thought to have initiated in bringing
about this good result, one that the peo-
pie were greatly stirred up because of
several big blazes in the last few
months, and the hiring of a lawyer to
prosecute the case. AS an evidence Of
the interest in the trial it is noted that
the jury was made up of j. C. Carmi-
chael, mayor of Goodwater B. F. Crewe,
leading merchant, and Eugene Argo,
one of the busiest physicians in the
COUNTY.
