 Professor Pardue Speaks.
 Prof A. H. Pardue, state geologist, was asked to discuss the question of drainage from his viewpoint. He went thoroughly into the necessity of drainage all over the state.

"COrne."

A certain king was accustomed on
set occasions to entertain all the beg
gars of the city. Around him sat his
courtiers, all clothed in rich apparel;
the beggars sat at the same table IN
their rags of poverty, so Chas. Il.
Spurgeon used to tell the story. Now
it came to pass that on a certain day
one of the courtiers had spoiled his
silken apparel. so that he dare not
put it on, and he felt, Il cannot go to
the kings feast to-day, for my robe
IS foul" He sat weeping, till the
thought struck him, Tomorrow.
when the king holds his feast, some
will come as courtiers, happily decked
in the beautiful array; but others will
be dressed in rags. Well, WELL" says
he, 80 long as 1 may see the kings
face, and sit at the kings table. |
will enter among the %beggars." So,
without mourning because he had lost
his silken habit. he put en- the rags OF
a beggar, and he saw the kings face
as we'll as if he had O his scarlet
and fine linen. My soul has done this
full many a time, and l bid you do
the same; if you cannot come as a
saint. come as a sinner, only do come,
and you shall receive JOY and peace.

After Many DAYS.

The words of truth are never lost.
Like long buried seed, they will
bloom forth at last. A youth of f1f-
teen once heard the celebrated Flavel
preach a plain, powerful sermon,
from which he received no immediate
impressions. Soon after he came to
America, where he lived to be a hun
dred years of age-a thoughtless,
careless old man. One day, while sit
ting alone under a tree, his past life
came wildly before him, and over the
hills of memory, clear as the blue
above him, rose the days of his youth.
and with them the Sabbath morning
when he heard the great, solemn Fla
vel. The sermons thrilling words
came back to him like an alarm bell
over the silent sea Of years, awaken
ing every sleeping sin. Startled and
stung by conscience, he was led at last
from a deep sense of guilt to a for
giving Judge and a loving Saviour.
He joined a neighboring church, and
for sixteen years lived to be a con-
sistent follower of Christ, and then
Luke Short died at the age OF 116
years in the glorious hope of a
blessed immortality.
Little thought Flavel that his living
words should echo over the sea of
time, across the between the
old and the new world, awakening a
sleeping soul to everlasting glory

The Source of Power.

The power which inspiration has
over the body is II OF the miracles
of life. The career OF every man
who influences his generation dis
plays it, but each new instance gives
new energy and strength to those
willing to profit by example. Colonel
Hammond, an old friend of Dwight L.
Moody, has this story to tell of the
spirit of the evangelist:
Mr.. Moody, says the colonel, came
to see me one Sunday after his morn.
ing service, seeming to be quite tried
out. He threw himself into a chair
and burst out with the following ex-
Carnations:
II am used up! Can't think or
speak or do anything else! There is
my meeting at the church tonight.
You must take it. I have absolutely
nothing left in me-"
Knowing that Mr.. Moody never
asked for help unless he needed 1t, ]
promised to take the service of his
hands. When the time came, I wen.

found the house quite full. I was

in walked, or rather rushed, Nj.
Moody, followed by a long line OF
young men, whom he had picked up
in saloons or on street corners, and
brought with elm on an errand which
was evidently to them anew one.
Mounting the platform with a
bound, he seized the hymn-book and
began; and from the beginning to
the end of that service I had nothing
to do but to keep out of the way.
It appeared that he had taken an
hour or two Of rest, and then, having
no care about the evening service on
his mind, took up his old familiar
work of bringing in recruits, at which
he happened this time to be still more
successful than usual.
AS he led the way to the church
some happy thought struck him, and
between the street corner and the pull
pit he arranged a sermon which was
one of the most effective I ever heard
him preach.

have riches enter into the Kingdom
of Heaven" Sometimes I think we
pray too much for the poor man and
too little for the rich. We lavish Jul
sympathies upon the pauper and we
fling scathing denunciations at tn
plutocrat. Each type of man has his
peculiar temptations, and everything
depends upon the way in which he
deals with that temptation So many
men show weakness here, and it is all
the more pitiable because they have
shown such strength in other things.
The temptations to fragrant forms of
evil they will meet with the con-
queror's spirit and then will yield to
the insidious and subtle temptation
Of placing their fortune building, or
their fame acquiring, in the supreme
position of their life. Oh, how often
we see this, and how sad it is, when
we know what the result always Is.
1t never deviates, for it is an ineXora-
BILE law of life, that the man Wild
spends his days in simply getting and
gaining, robbing himself Of all the
beauty that is within him, RELOCATING
God to a%n>inferior position, trampling
upon the high ideals that dominate
a noble mind, the end Of such a man
is worse than the bsginning-it is
failure-it is loss. But what a bene-
diction to the world is the prosperous
man, who has recognized Jesus Christ
through all the days of his prosperity,
who has given to Him the first place
and put his prosperity in the second.
Whatever our undertaking may be in
life, whether a business or a profess
sional career, let us bring to it the
inward force of ambition, always con-
templating success, but let us also
keep in mind the danger that we are
in of having our religious fervor
Stihed.
