The subject of Pastor Wales sermon
last Sunday morning was Lessons from
Ancient Tyre" Words found in the It'll
verse of Isaiah 90 we've the text. The
situation and antiquity OF Tyre were con-
sidered. 1t appeared to be joyous city,
but the Joy of the Lord is far superior.
1t was beautiful in architecture; this
world is alluring to the natural eye, but
we look for something better. Tyre was
strongly fortified; Satan has endeavored
to fortify this world against its rightful
ruler, but shall be unsuccessful. The
city was noted for it's commerce, and was
very rich. The inhabitants were skillful
and were typical OF, business; too many
to-day are overcharged with the cares of
this world and fail to recognize God and
his claims upon them. We are exhorted
to watch and pray lest we enter into
Christ visited this city and
granted the appeal of the Syro-phonecian
woman; showing that God is no respecter
of persons. Tyre was a place of wicked
ness and pride; superstition also and
scoffing at Jerusalem. The end came
nevertheless as foretold and destruction
was complete. But he that doeth the
will of God shall abide forever.

UniVerSaliSt

| There was good attendance at the
Unversalist church last Sunday, when
the pastor preached a strong sermon
upon the subject, 1.-THE Unobstructed
Vision" The regular choir furnished
music. At the Sunday school session
the report was given that only six of the
entire enrolment were absent on Sunday,
Feb. 10.
The service at the Universalist church
| Sunday evening, while not largely at
tended, was very interesting, about
| half of the congregation being men. The
pastor delivered strong address from
the text, Matt. 6;23, "But if thine eye
be evil. thy whole body be full of dark
ness" In the first place he asked,
"What is the great essential evil of in
temperance? Under this head he in
Guided ver-indulgence at the table and
the misuse of spiritious liquors. The
great evil Of over-irdulgence is inward
or spiritual-a state of soul. 1t is COM
mon for temperance workers to argue
| against intemperance by describing pa
thetically the terrible results of this
vice, but it is right that these should be
"a just retribution for sin. But we too
often fix our attention upon the conse-
quences and overlook the crime itself
The great evil of intemperace is, above
all eIse, the extinguishIng of the light
of reason. The ghastliness and pain of
intemperance are but the reflections of
the fearful desolation of the soul, when
the light of reason has gone out. He
spoke OF poverty as consequence of in
temperance, and when poverty comes as
result of a blotting out of the reason il
is indeed terrible to behold. He wished
that society would be taxed more for
the drunkards on our streets so that
citizens might wake up and inquire how
the ineberiate might be saved from
ruin. The drunkard is an undesirable
citizen. What are we doing to save him
from being this? When one man suf-
fers because of the effects of drunken
ness the whole community suffers with
him-we are all members of one BODY,
All classes are tempted, and the young
are especially exposed through their
love Of excitement and lack of fore
thought Among the causes of intern
perance the speaker mentioned the
heavy burden and care of daily living.
anxiety and trouble. Other causes mem
toned were intellectual depression and
ignorance. Intemperance is simply the
lack of an even balance in life. How
shall we arrest the evil? We must give
strength to those tempted and fallen or
tn evil. The church has no
right to dictate how a man should vote. |
but she must preach such a gospel that
man will see the evil of intemperance
and rise to the rescue by living true TO
the light that is within them. God |
grant that the men who hear this word |
tonight be moved to Danish the tempta-
ton from this community. God be |
pleased to breath into the hearts of ali |
men the spirit of fellowship and love. =

services we're conducted at the home
OF the daughter at $3.50 Monday, by
Rev. McCielland of the Methodist
Episcopal church. who paid eloquent
and fitting tribute to the deceased, as
Ipioneer, wife of soldier. mother and
Christian. She came to this state in
the earliest days and endured the
hardships and priyations necessary
in building the foundations of proud
Iowa's civilization. Then when the
war broke out and Capt. Stanley was
called to the front, she displayed no
less. if not even greater courage and
loyalty, than the boys OF 81, when
she bore the cares of her family alone
during those dark days, not knowing
what day news might come CT death

Tending his country. Grandmother

been sufferer for more than score

with a patience and cheerfulness that
was remarkable. Home always meant
much to her and her cup of happiness
was filled when she could have chill
