THE SEVENTH DAY ADVENTIST
At the Adventist Church 767 Kinau
street Sunday evening 1880 we will
take up the study Of the signs of the
second coming of Christ
The Jews knew, by the prophecy OF
Micah, where Christ was to be born
and they might have known the the
very year that he was to be baptized
and commence the work of his minis
try and the time and place of his cru
cifXion; but they neglected these pro-
precies and looked for a great leader
to deliver them from the Roman yoke,
therefore they rejected and cruciied
the meek and lowly Saviour.
Christ is coming the second time, can
we know when he will appear? Surely
the Lord God will do nothing, but he
revealeth his secrets to his servants
the prophets" I'VE have also a more
sure work of prophecy; whereunto We
do well that We take heed, as unto
light that shineth in a dark place, un-
til the day dawn, and the day star
arises in your hearts.
If we neglect these prophecies, of
the second coming of Christ, will we be
any more prepared to receive him
when he comes than the Jews were?
c. D. NJ Williams, pastor

thropic work has largely passed into
their hands; without them nine-tenths
of the American churches would have
to close; their clubs and organizations
and mutual improvement societies COW
err every inch of the continent; and So
cially they are supreme with a SUI
premaCy such as the women of Europe
can only envy from afar. The Ameri-
can woman does not trouble about her
rights" because she has few, if any,
wrongs" She has lost, in short, so
far as politics are concerned, the col
! lective sense of sex in the enjoyment
of her personal privileges. Moreover,
American politics are a good deal of a
mystery even to American men. To
American women they are utterly in
comprehensive. l could as easily i'm
agine a woman to be an authority on
tactics and strategy as on the opera
lions that Americans exalt by the
name of politics. Those operations
are for the most part carried on by
men who are not conspicuous for their
refinement and in an atmosphere
which is anything but the atmosphere
of the drawing-rOom. Politics and
limited degree in Washington do not
go hand in hand.-Sydney Brooks, in
Harper's Weekly.

About Gardens,
Bread and Poetry

One of the most delightful expert
ences in gardening is laying out the
ground. 1t is pursuit as personal
as making bread-or poem. For just
as in these fair tasks, the laws OF fer
mentation or of meter must prevail,
so laws of garden setting are mex
orab!n, and yet it is in handling ones
yeasts and iambicS and plants with a
difference that the role of creator Is
PLAYED. In bread there is u charmed
moment for the second mixing; III a
verse there is an enchanted fashlon Oh
varying meter to woo the meaning
and believe the ear; and in garden
there is always an Inevitable place Tor
the hollyhocks and the ShOwer-of-gold
and the Forsythia and all the tall
grenadier flowers and to substitute
violetes merely because one admlres
them would be like using pretty words
for significant ones-or 1rostlng the
bread. Various corners of the garden
call their various needs which only
one special thing will fill. A bare bit
of lattice, a gray shoulder Of wall, a
plain arbor-these petition uninls-
takably for tall flowers, or for hedge
of sweet peas, or LOT any SlellueF HOW =
ering shrub that will grow to the de-
sired height. That low corner OF the
garden, by Il turn in the wall, where
many boughs weave a curtain, de-
lnands white violets and irises and
Jack-in-t the pulpits and lady slippers
and ferns and mandrakes. 1t is the
'~"sr corner of the garden, and to
pl,,... red geraniums there would be
an insult to nature. ~ sunny banks and
open places are the home of geran-
iumS, if one likes them, and of mas
turtiums; and, by the way, if there is
a bit of rocky soil in the garden, the
nasturtiums ought to be there. The joy
which the eye takes in q flood of sun
on a tulip bed, on L strip of daffodils,
or on 4 riot of pinks and da hlaS il
Illustrates how at least one rule in
encouragement is reversed i'll gar
dening: For whereas a bit of grass or
statue may light The dusk corner of
q room, and somber cabinets may De
set in the light, it is far otherwise out
of doors; there the cool, shaded re-
cesses of a garden demand delicately
unobtrusive flowers, while the sunny
plots call aloud for tides of color to
glorify them.-From "HOw to Make Il
Garden" by iona Gale in The Outing

because when the question was sub
mitted to popular vote the women were

The custom of throwing a shoe after

among savage races when the bride

as hard as we might, those pavements
rebounded to no joyful hoof- beats.
Walking along the quiet streets.
there were still traces of former ac-
tivity. We saw different cooking
utensils in the bakeshops, and the
ovens stood ready, waiting for some
more loaves of bread. From the
streets the houses very much re-
sembled one another 1t was only
after entering the doorway that diff
ference was noticed, although the style
Of the ordinary Pompeian house was
the same, whether the occupant was
rich or poor. The distinction Of
wealth was designated by the
splendor of it's furnishings and the
colors of its frescoes.
After we entered the small passage
way of one of the houses, we stood
within a hall. Around us on three
sides were several chambers. At the
right and left of this hall there were
two small recesses, which were given
| up to the ladies of the house. In the
center of this hallway was an i'm
pluvium, a square shalloV reservoir
| to hold the rain water, which poured
| down through an opening in the roof
although this same opening could be
| covered if the occupant so wished it.
IE this hall opposite the entrance, was
an elaborate apparement with mosaic
| floors and rich paintings. Today such
a room would serve as a reception
room. On one side of it was an eating
room, and on the other a room for the
display of gems and rarities
These rooms in turn opened on
peristyle, or square colonnade
although in some of the houses they
were oblong. Bed rooms dining
room and a library lead off from this
coIonnade. In those days library
| was rare, and a very small room was
sufficient to hold the few rolls OF
papyrus which the Pompeians called
a library In the smaller houses there
was a kitchen at the farther end OF
this peristyle, and there the house
ended In that case there was always
a garden in the centre of this space
If the house was as large as the one
we were in, there was a fountain in
this colonnade, and at the end other
rooms opened on second peristyle
which was larger than the first, and
here was the garden. fountains and
statues, and at the extreme end was
the gardeners house and more rooms
In Pompcii there was only SECOND
or third story over a portion OF the
home, and The rooms here were for the
slaves.
