In quest of Phrygia!

over-politely. to Dan Courtney. What
In the name OF fortune brings you

II was about to ask you a similar
question:" returned Dan, as plainly
showing his annoyance.
Meanwhile up came Mr.. Waldon, the
sight OF whom caused the other two

with an affability best described as

;, Hobab, the brother-in-law Of
Moses, hac! been sojourning
! with Israel at Mount Sinai,
and when the time came for
!, the people Of God to take up
! their journey towards the
Promised Land, Moses In
/ yited and urged Hobab to 90
with them, promising him a
share in all the blessing which
.. God had said he would give to
, his people. Moses invitation
, brought Hobab face to face
. with the most solemn issue
which can come to any soul. A
I most momentous question had :
to be answered.:
, Should he follow God or fol-
,. low self?
Should he 90 to the Lane Of
, Promise, or should he continue
} to dwell in the old iand7
!. Should he choose Gods peo-
{ pie, or the worlds people?
The acceptance Of the invi-
tation involved: (1) A separa-,
ton, for God calls those who
would receive his blessing to
, "come out -. and be sepa-
rate" Man cannot have the
world and God, too. sg'
(2) A journey, for Goes call
!. 10 always to 90 onward and up
: ward. And that journey is not
/ always easy, for, Jesus said: ''lf
any man will come after me,
let him deny himself, and take
. up his cross and follow me-"
But note that Jesus asks the
!. soul to go only where he leads.
But It acceptance Of the invf-
: tation means separation from
the world and worldly living,
and somewhat hard and weary
Journey. still on the other hand
: is given promise Of ~ A bet
ter land. (2) An enlarged
sphere Of life. (3) The certain
} ty Of an enduring habltation.
(4) A share in the divine bless
ing. (5) Fellowship with God
!, and Gods people.
Why is It 80 hard to bring
: people to accept the invitation?
/ Why is it that, like Hobab OF
:, old, people choose temporal
) gain, worldly associations and
. worldly possessions, rather
. than God and his blessings?
. Only the Christian can truly
J say: "come thou with us and
we will do thee good"

FOUND DEAD INFANT.
Discovered in Pasture West of Hooper
Had Been There Several Weeks.

Hooper Sentinel: Considerable eX-
citement was manifested last Wednes-
day afternoon when it was reported to
the authorities that the remains of n
small infant had been discovered, on
| the hill west of the city, by some little
girls who were returning home from
school. The children were going
across the hill and saw n small box
that was covered with an old paper.
Upon further investigation they were
horror stricken when after lifting the
paper from the box they discovered
that it contained the body of an in
fant.
1t was at first thought that a murder
might have been committed, and the
authorities worked upon that theory
until their views were dispelled by
one of the local physicians Thursday
morning after examining the corpse
at the undertaking establishment.
1t developed that shortly before De.
cember 23 man and woman, claiming
the city and rented a room in the
western part or the city They gave
their names as Mr.. and Mrs. B. Stev-
ems and claimed Decatur as being their
home. On December % the physician
was called upon to wait upon the wo-
man and she gave birth to babe that
lived but a few minutes. After giving
the woman the proper care the physi-
clan was paid for his services and he
left, after instructing the man to bury
the child. This was the last heard
of the case until the discovery of the
body last Wednesday.
1t is thought that on account of the
ground being frozen the man took the
babe and placed it in the box and left
1t on the side hill where it remained
until discovered by the children.
