Preacher by the Almighty,
So He Says.
New York Herald.)

Though he is certain the voice of God
told him on July % that the world
would come to an end in forty days and
commanded him to go and preach the
doctrine of repentance to all mankind,
the Rev. Samuel Willhite of Baxter
county, Arkansas, but more recently of
London, started last night on his way
back to Arkansas, from the First Ave
nue. Municipal lodging house, not be-
cause he has lost faith in the vision,
but because Mrs. Willhite is of the
opinion that if the world must come to
an end so soon, it might as well find
her in Arkansas.
Seeing as how Mrs. Willhite looks
at it that way and the young ones want
to get home, too, and the people here
allow they are willing TO pay for tOtips
US all back to Arkansaw," said Mr..
Willhite, Il suppose we might as well
go home, though l don't know where
we are going to live when we git
there"
Mr. Willhite, who is So years old. is
a native of the Cumberland mountains
of Tennessee, and is about four years
his wife's senior. They have been mar
ried ten years and have five children.
the eldest of whom is years old and
the youngest months. Up to July "a

made living farming and running
small store. The day before their de
parture, he says the Lord appeared to
him in the form of a loud voice and
told him to go forth and tell the world
it was to be destroyed in forty days.
Il don't belong to any church" said
the preacher, "and haven't for a long
time. When / was 20 1 had religion

That wasn't what 1 wanted, according
to the voices 1 heard from God, so /
joined the Complexities. They weren't
much better so for the last eight years
I have been preaching the word as God
has given it to me. l usually work for
a while and then go away for a short
trip preaching. Up to this time I have
left the family at home. But this time
l gave my farm away and sold what
1 had at give-away prices and went to
London. There they wouldn't let me
preach, and after l had a lot Of trOu-
bic l came home. They didn't arrest
me- but kept us moving. London does
not want to be saved. I landed in Bos-
ton last Thursday and they sent us
over here. Then a lady at the station
sent us to this place.
NO, 1 never converted anybody but
my wife You had better be converted,
though, for the end comes Hext Satur-
day. It sure does. for the voice said
So"
Mrs. Wilihite is not so enthusiastic
over the prospect of the world ending
so soon.
'T am tired of gallivanting around
with those children, with two of them
here and the other. three in Bellevue,
where they are being treated for little

said she. IF the world is going to
come to an end 1 do not know what it
matters whether 1 am in New York or

THE GOLDEN WAY.

Baltimore American)
If you want to be looked on as learned
and wise,
Don't talk;
If to test your real knowledge a man slyly
tries,
Don't talk;
For this world is run in a contrary way,
And tbs likely to judge a man as sage
or jay,
More by what he doesn't than what he
does say,
So don't talk.
When people around you discuss some
fine point.
Don't talk;
Your silence with wisdom your view will
anoint:
Don't talk:
Just listen to all with a painstaking care,
And none to assail you as learned will
dare.
If only you take a superior air,
And don't talk.
If you want nothing quoted against you
for i'll.
Don't talk;
If you wish all your friends to believe in
you still,
Don't talk;
If you try of the ladder to reach the
top rung,
Just barrel your speech and don't waste
at the bung:
To fool them, Just look wise and then
hold your tongue.
Don't talk.

WHEN The SUN GOES DOWN.

CWil F. Griffin in Milwaukee Sentinel
I have wondered what lies past the world S
far rim,
Where the great red sun goes down.
Since the dreaming of youth, so long ago,
have lOnged, so lOnged, sometimes to go
Over the slopes and the mounatin trails,
The deserts and valleys, through wood
and wales.
To the land where the sun goes down.
have gazed in the desolate, tinted west,
There where the sun goes down,
And wondered at strange and foreign
lands.
OF unknown tongues on other strands,
And longed, so longed sometimes to go
That I might see, that l might know
There where the Sun goes down.
1 have looked in the far away jeweIed
skies,
There where the sun goes down,
And lOnged for the deeps of a starry
night,
A trackless waste and a polestar light.
And wished that l had been born to see
Those lands and know of their mystery
There where the land goes down.
And I've turned. in the dusk. from the
afterglew.
After the sun went down
To the lights that cleaned in the city's
heart,
The lights in hail and throbbing mart.
And longed, so longed, for the arms and
breast
That Graded me sweet to sleep and rest
After the sun went down.
