Gods spirit. No man was ever denied
this guidance who honestly asked for
it. Will you ask?
They searched for Him with their whole
heart and found Him. 'Ye shall seek
me and find me, when We search for me
with your whole heart" They spent
money, time and effort to find Him. They
left their business, their homes, their
friends. and took long hazardous jour
ney. You do not have to do these things,
except as they show that you are des-
perately in earnest in your serach. You
will never find Jesus, If you go at it In
a half-hearted way.
They found Him, not as they had ex-
pected, but they worshiped Him neverthe-
less. Paul, and John, and Peter, and
Luke all found Jesus differently from
what they had expected; but they wor-
SHIPPED Him nevertheless. Judas Iscariot
was SO disappointed that he lost out
These men would never have been
known but for their search for Jesus
They were obscure in ameasure until
then. They are among the glorified OF
earth and heaven now. Why. Because
they sought and found Jesus Some day
only those will be known who have made
this search. WIN you be one of them?

would have been featured most promi-
nently.
In that time. however, Herod adopted
another plan. He asked the wise men
to come back and tell him where they
found the new king. so that he, too,
might go down and worship Him The
blatant hypocrite! His. only desire was
that he mign. murder Him; but in this
he failed, for only those find this King
who seek Him for a right purpose.
The magi left Jerusalem to continue
their search. They were guided by the
strange star that had appeared, and
which led them to the very house where
the King was. 1t was strange place,
they probably thought, to find the King
little baby with a feeding trough for a
cradle, and beasts of burden for house
companions. But they did not withhold
their hermage on this account. They
looked forward, and fell down and wor-
shipped Him. 1t was not their gifts nor
their homage on this account They
their faith in Him and in what He
should accomplish in the future. God
accepted their faith and saved them
forever.
That is remarkable picture-scienct
kneeling at the feet of Jesus to do
Him homage, for of Him. and to Him,
and by Him, and through Him are all
things
They did not return by way Of Jerusa-
lem, but by Gods direction went home
another way. The service they rendered
Jesus was not great, but it was worth
while, for 1t was mere than probable
that these gifts they made Him were
used to pay the expenses of the trip
into Egypt and to sustain the little
family there until Joseph could earn a
livelihood as a carpenter; for these peo-
pie were very poor and could not have
made that trip otherwise.
HOW TO FIND HIM.
OF course this story is full of pregnant
truths, but the one that appeals to me
most strongly now gathers round the
story of the search for Jesus and how
the three seekers found Him, because
there are many hearts today-is wours
one? -that are sharing the worlds I'M
rest, have heard that Jesus has come
to satisfy the souls longing and give
peace, and would like to find Him if they
knew how. Let me suggest these ideas
They found Him where the scriptures
said they would. 1t was not in the palace
nor the capital; not in great place; but
in little Bethlehem. Had they known
the scriptures they might have been
saved the trip to Jerusalem. You can
find Jenet through the Bible. Your I'm
pressions and preconceived opinions may
indicate other places; but it is through
the word of God that you will finally
come into fellowship with Him whom
your soul longs for and needs. Men have
tried other ways and failed. 1t is as He
has been revealed in the Bible that you
will find Him.
They were guided in their search, and
so will you be. Without Gods guidance
you will not find Him, even in the Bible

must ask and receive the guidance OF

Under Nehemiah great reforms were ac-
compIished, and the worship Of Jehovah
restored in Jerusalem. but in few years
the same old story of failure was writ
ten by Malachi-the people had not gone
again into idolatry, but they were guilty
of almost every other sin. Those who
made any pretense at religion were form
al in their observances; God was not
first in their thoughts. For 400 years there
was no vision, and then an event occur
red which was calculated to and capable
of changing the whole course of ma
tion's or an individuals history.
The world was in state of unrest,
everybody was expecting something, but
they did not know what. The Jews them
selves were under the bondage of Rome,
and were earnestly DESTROYS that the Mes
siah. the Christ, should come and de-
liver them from their bondage. They
looked forward to His coming to estab-
fish the kingdom like 1t was in David $
all that the prophets had said about
this phase Of the Christ's work.
THREE SEEKERS.
One day three men appeared at the
palace of Herod the Great in Jerusalem.
They were members of the most erudite
class of tie East. They may have come
from Persia or from India, or from
China. Nut they were there for pur-
pose. They too, like the rest of the
world had been in a state Of expectation.
In some way it had been revealed to
them that a great King had been born.
King who would quiet the worlds un-
rest, who was to be King of the Jews.
They had considered the event of suffi-
cient importance to leave their ordi-
nary occupation, take long, expensive.
and hazardous journey in order that they
might do Elm homage, and present their
gifts to Him. The story of these three
seekers and ow they found the object
of their search is an intensely interest
ing one.
Naturally they thought the capitol and
the palace was the place the new King
would be found But they learned from
the king that he knew nothing of the
event. In fact, the king was startled
He had been a great king from a worldly
point of view. He had reigned 81 wears,
and had accomplished great things in
building, but he had been a wicked and
cruel ruler, and the announcement of
the birth of a King who should succeed
him, as he thought. struck terror to, and
awakened hatrel and jealousy in, his
heart
Iaiilng the scrlDes ana prleStS toBetn-
er, they learned that the prophets had
said LAT in Bethlehem, the city of Da-
vid, the Messiah should be born. All
the people were intensely interested in
this event and discovery. In our day
all the newspapers would have issued
extras with headlines that could be read
across the street. The photographers
would have been sent to Bethlehem to
photograph the buildings, the principal
persons, and so forth. The reporters
would have made post haste to get a
scoop on the story. and this event

A Word to Exhibitors

yrsHE experience gained during
the poultry show just
IL closed at Atlanta has been
worth, to the ones connected
with it, many times over the cost
and the hard labor and the many
duties that have been connected
with the show which they could
never have gotten If it had not
been for this show, and lessons
have been taught that will be re-
membered for a lifetime.
The writer has been visiting
poultry shows, hundreds OF them,
for the past 26 years, but gained
more information and learned
more in reference to poultry
shows from the one just closed
at Atlanta than he has learned in
the past 26 years. 1t has shown
me the many difficulties that the
superintendent and secretary are
up against, and the many causes
for mistakes and errors that are
likely to occur in a poultry show;
also many mistakes that are like
ly to happen to your birds in
transit to and from shows, and
also in the care that they received
at the show, and the condition In
which they arrive and are re-
turned.

A BALD-HEADED WOMAN
Shorn of Her Crown of Beauty, Loses
in Love and Marriage

Shorn of Her Crown of Beauty, Loses
in Love and Marriage
Hair is certainly most necessary TO
woman. Who could love and marry a
bald headed woman? What charms
could one array to offset such dis
figurement?
A woman's goal is usually love and
marriage. Her browning glory is her
hair. The loss of her hair mars her
beauty, happiness, and success. Yet,
right here in Belding, there are thou
sands of women who are neglecting or
injuring their hair to such an extent
that it is only q matter of time when it
will be utterly ruined.
Many women destroy the beauty OF
their hair through thoughtlessness or
ignorance of certain facts. They use
curling irons over-heated, or TO excess,
which destroys the natural oil Of the
hair, causing it to split, break, and
come out. They do not shampoo their
hair often enough or too often. They
use soaps or preparations which contain
ingredients positively harmful TO the
scalp and hair.
AS a result of such treatment, dan
druff is created, the hair loosens, loses
color, falls out, and badness conn.,
mences, unless proper and prompt
precautions are taken in time. Then
again, microbes and certain diseases
bring about unhealthy scalp and hair
conditions.
Almost any woman may rid herself
of dandruf and diseased scalp and hair
| il she will but use the right remedy.
We have that remedy, and we will
positively guarantee that it will either
cure dandruff and badness or 1t will
not cost the user anything.
That's pretty broad statement, but
we will back it and prove it with our
own money. We will return your
money If you do not find that Rexall
1897 Hair Tonic is an entirely salts
factory remedy that will promote hair
growth and overcome scalp and hair
troubles; that it will grow hair even on
bald heads, unless all life in the hair
roots has been exiting uished, the
follicles closed and the scalp is glazed
and shiny. 1t gets its name from the
fact that it grew hair in SO out Of 100
cases, where it received a thoroughly
hard, impartial, and practical test.
We want you to try Rexall 1913"
Hair Tonic at our risk. You surely
cannot lose anything by doing so,
while you have everything to gain.
You had better think this over, and
then come in and see us about this offer.

to our store. Remember, you can get
