The Love of God.

There is one thing that is higher,
deeper, broader, richer, better than
even the love of great-hearted moth
heart of God His love is forever un-
failing. 1t never loses sight of you,
even for an instant. His eyes did not
see your substance, yet being imper-
feet; in his book all your members
we're written when as yet there were
none Of them; and from that hour to
this his eyes have never turned away
from you. Be has seen your downsit-
tings and uprisings He has seen the
thoughts Of your heart afar off.
In all your wanderings from his
precepts in all your endeavors to do
that which is right and true in all
your moral successes in all your for
getfulness of duty; in all your head
strong persistence of sin; in all your
repentances and backslidings; in all
your blighted expectations Of good; in
trial; in temptation; in sorrow: where
ever you have been; whatever you
have done, the great loving heart of
God has followed you like your own
shadow, trying to insure your good,
trying to make you pure in heart and
life, trying to cleanse you from I'M
righteousness, trying to destroy that
harvest of sin which you have already
gathered and put in its place an in
gathering of spiritual life and peace
and power and hope towards himself
There is no love like the love of God.
Even mothers bright and burning
love pales before this and grows dim,
for the love of God is with you when
it is impossible for the love of your
mother to be there, and it can do for
you what even her love can never ac-
complish 1t is about you daily, hour
ly, every moment of your waking or
sleeping life, closer than the air you
breathe. 1t stands ready to pardon
your sins and to cleanse your heart
from unrighteousness. 1t seek to give
you peace and joy and hope, peace
that passeth understanding, a joy that
is unspeakable, and full of glory, a
hope that includes all the bliss of heav-
en- and eternal life.
1t is no marvel that the apostle should
call you to ''yield yourself to God,
for it is a call to unsearchable riches
of righteousness; it is call to the
heirship Of such an Inheritance as eye
! hath not seen, nor ear heard, nor the
| heart of man conceived. Such an in.
| heritance as God only could devise ans
bestow. Then yield yourself unto the
Lord. He is your loving Father, your
gracious Savior, your unfailing anC
everlasting Friend. Put yourself in hi
hand Let him guide you and guarC
you and keep you and save you unit
the day Of your final redemption

After the Initiation

The house is full of medicine
And mystery Profound
We cannot even run about
Or make the slightest sound;
They keep the big piano shut,
We cannot strike a note;
The doctors been here twenty times
Since father rode the goat.
He joined the lodge week ago
Got in at a. m,
And sixteen members brought him
home,
Though he says he brought them.
His leg was sprained, and one big rip
Had rent his Sunday coat
The members had jolly time
When father rode the goat
He's resting on the coach today
And practicing the signs
The hailing, signal call, and grip
And other monkey shines;
He utters passwords meath his breath
And other things he'll quote
The members had an evenings work
When father rode the goat.
He has brilliant uniform,
All red and white and blue,
A hat with plumes, and scarlet braid, ..
And golden badges, too.
But somehow, when we mention it,
His visage wakes grim
We.wonder if he rode the goat
Or if the goat rode him.

HIS LESSON CAME.

"If had my past to go over again
would never try to assist company to
crush a strike.
These momentOus words were re-
Gently said by party who assisted in
the fight Of the T. G. |. & r. r. Co.
against the United Mine Workers of
America. Where, is no particular
matter, nor even who it was. 1t is
sufficient to say, however, that he is a
gentleman learned, intelligent and,
aside from his prejudice against union
labor a man whom any community
would be glad to have as a citizen
But, like hundreds of others who
pitch in to assist those soulless bodies
known as rich corporations, he has
felt the gait, and now stands destitute
of employment in that company AMI
another is reapng the rewards which
he expected for his services in break
ing the spirit of men whose only fault
was that their spirit of American lib
erty made them feel that they too had
as much right to organize their muscle
as body of other men had to organize
their dollars.
And so today that man is without
work or friends, The big corporation
has forgotten his services and the
friends he should now possess are rout-
ed to otder places. And the bitter pin
he now swallows is that he assisted ii
doing this only to be so treated him
self
Truly that man is not feeling we'll
1t would have been far better for
him, to have stuck to the union men Of
his town i'll their fight for labor free
dom, even if he had to ask them for
some of their soup.
But instead he fattened-for while
off of the wreck Of homes, the heart
breaking of women and the ruin of
men VINO had gathered by hard work a
little of this world $ goods Now he is
paying the penalty. Another man has
his Job and probably has the same feel
ing of citation that he once possessed.
But the feeling Of joy that man
possesses when working for corpora
ton soon dies away, and this newcom.
er, like he has, will probably in time
feel the same GAIT
The moral to be drawn obviously is,
that the wealth of a company should
be no attraction FOR man to assist il
defeating a lot of poor men in pushing
themselves up the ladder of life, anC
that the gratitude Of company is toe
evanescent to describe, and that it is
best always to work for the Interests
of those who meet you face to face
daily with kind words, and, who, il
you are sick, will do all possible kind
nesse3 looking for your recovery
These are the great common peorl,
who live neighbors to you, not th'
wealthy mine owner who lives thous

of you and cares nothing for you, an(
whose only concern is that be may
make as many dollars off of your labor
as possible.
