high life was the picture presented at
the Arlington Hotel. last Tuesday.
when the brokenhearted wife Of Sec
rotary OF the state Gresham read the
promises Of God to her husband as
his soul winged its flight to the judg-
ment bar. This incident will be
pleasurable to the Christian world. It
strengthens their faith. To know the
Holy Bible, in the hour Of supreme
trial, is the only refuge sought by the
great in the palace. as we'll as the
lowly in the cottage. The old time
religion is good enough for them all.
