and ask you one by ono whether or
not YOU expect TO make your bed in

yes You expect 80 escape II some
way or other. You have II fixed UP
that you Will make IL TO heaven In
sesne way Ono man tells me that
God is too good aud merciful TO
make him and then make hell to put
him In. There are lot of little fel-
lows all over this country imagin-
ing that they have an unanswerabie
argument in that siIliest piece OF
'silabub' ever crossing the lips OF
man Heaven and hell are the great
est facts. so far as revealed 10 us as
yet, in the universe OF God Too good
to send me to hell. Here is boy
whose father builds him nice
house aud equips room for the
boy and he stands out doors in the
cold and freezes to death. When God
made heaven he left hell and II you
won't go to the heaven he has pre-
| pared for you, how can you escape
hell, tell me? God has very gracious
ily nut the lesson Of heaven and hel
in our pathway so that we run up on
II every day. The lesson is every
where. I'll begin right here before
your eyes Looking up to bright
little electric light above his head,
the preacher said, you see that
electric light. Heaven and hell are
typified by it. The dual lesson is
within it. Electricity has its proper
ties and laws. II we have respect to
them we get the bright light above
my head. If | go out here and lay

II think the most horrible death
ever witnessed was that of man
who did that thing. The fire leaped
from his teeth and eyes and the
very hair of his head and reduced
his body to a blackened coal. | take

out into the orchard and he sees
ripe peach and wants 1t. ! tell MN
to hold his cap under 1t and l VIII
shake the tree. Down comes the
peach. 1t didn't go up. it came down
into the little cap and led the boy
That's gravity, we say God mace the
law and Newton wrote out the for-
mula. Then | start TO town with that
boy and we see great procession
coming down the street. lie wants to

story-he outruns me and leaning
ont the window the center of gravity
falls without the window and down
