Not His Kind of Literature.

From the Cleveland Plain Deslez.
A county Jail prisoner, tired OF sitting
in his cell meditating, made request the
other morning for reading matter. One
of Sheriff Hirstius' deputies picked up a
magazine at random from pile that had
been left by charitable organization and
sent II to the prisoner. About an hour
later the prisoner sent a request 70 see
the man who had selected his reading
matter for him. He showed the deputy
the magazine. 1t was journal devoted
entirely to womens fashions.

ChriSt-pOSSiDly BaTnaDaS. but any
way he was one whom Jesus loved,
even though be was not one of the
apostles who followed with the Lord.
And Martha has come down to US as
a synonym of busting, energetic hos
pitality, "busied about many things"
Yet surely she was loving and loyal
to the Master. Jesus loved Martha
and we may be sure therefore that he
loves all Of similar character. But he
loved Mary also. And we do not for
get that when she gave up some of
her Homework that she might sit at
the feet of Jesus and learn Of him the
Master declared that she had chosen
the better part" This was the same
Mary who anointed the Master with
the precious spikenard ointment five
days before his burial. Martha and
Mary both loved and were loved Of the
Lord, yet, evidently, Mary's love and
the form it took was specially APPROX
ed of the Master.
Finally we come to John the loving
disciple of whom it is said that he was
that disciple whom Jesus loved"
What a glorious testimony was Johns.
We remember that he and his brother
loved the Lord 50 dearly that they de-
sired that in his Kingdom in the future
they might be next to him, one on his
right hand, the other Oh his left hand
We remember that the Master answer
ed that only by drinking of his cup Of
shame and ignominy, and by being
baptized into his sacrificial death could
they hope to sit in his throne at all.
And We recall how Loyalty they agreed
to these terms
In proportion as we are DESTROYS Of
having the Masters APPROVAL and smile,
let us each seek to cultivate his char
acter-likeness. The Apostle tells US
that such copies of Gods dear Son are
to be honorcd with a share with him
in his Kingdom glory on the heavenly
plane. To such will come the honor
and privilege of blessing and uplifting
mankind in general-to an earthly sal
walton In Paradise restored-by and
by. AS we note the special features
of character which called forth the
Masters love we will more and more
be able to copy them in reaching our
goal.

THE DEATH RECORD.
MRS. MARY VIRGINIA WEST.

MRS. MARY VIRGINIA WEST.
Mrs. Mary Virginia West, died Satur-
day morning, July2, after a lingering
illness at the home of her daughter,
Mrs. George c. Walter, near Loeb Lynn
Heights Her husband died about two
years ago, but she leaves several sons
and daughters to mourn her departure.
She had been a Christian for some time
and with childlike simplicity and faith
trusted in her Lord for salvation. She
was a member Of the Deer Park Baptist
church. She was buried in the Deer
Park cemetery Sunday afternoon. the
funeral services being conducted by her
pastor, Rev. c, w. Hudson, assisted by
Rev. J. G. McEndoe. A large concourse
Of friends and relatives followed her to
her last resting place and as the sun
was sinking in the west her body was
lowered into the grave to await the
resurrection. The sympathy of a host
Of friends is extended to the bereaved
ones in their sorrow.
May the God Of mercy wipe away al
tears from their eyes and soothe their
grieVing spirits. c. W. H.

ton with the subject Now, when we
hearken to the Word of God. how
plain, how simple how reasonable, are
its teachings! The dead are dead and
not alive. However, in view of Gods
plan that there shall be a resurrection
of the dead lin due time" he speaks
of the dead not as extinct like the
brute, but as merely asleep. They
are waiting for the morning-the glo-
rious morning of Messiah's Kingdom,
when "the Sun of Righteousness shall
arise with healing in its BEAMS" when
Satan shall be bound for a thousand
years and deceive the peoples no more.
Instead of the reign of Sin and Death
the reign of Righteousness and Life
everlasting shall begin. How beauti-
fully the Scriptures answer the ques-
ton of where the dead sleep, MANY

earth shall awake" Daniel xii, p.

William S. Russell and Daniel Blake
Russell. the elder Daniel Russelrs two
sons. Daniel Blake Russell did not APP
pear and the estate was left in the
hands of William C. Russell and adj
ministered through trustees. william
Russell became a recluse, interested
wholly i'm his bees, and was rarely or
never seen. When Dal.ed Blake Rus
sell appeared on the scene and at
tempted to prove his identity there
was a great commotion. People in
Melrose, the old residents, took sides.
Some declared the stranger none other
than Daniel Blake Russell, the missing
heir, and others as emphatically de-
clared he was not. William G. Rus
sell denied his brother when brought
face to face with him. The trustees
retained counsel and the case Is now
being bitterly contested on every con-
ceivable legal point. Charges of
perjury have been freely made, charges
of forgery of letters, handwriting and
even postoffice cancellation stamps,
and thus the federal government has
been brought to take a hand in the
matter. A family named Ruiseau in
Massena, N. Y, claimed that the al
legged heir to the Russell fortune is
James Rousseau or Ruiseau, who for
merly lived in that town. Russell
