] finished its work should bury those where sin had accomplished it's full work of death.
 He further stated that there were but two men who ever did live upon this earth: Adam and Christ; and thus to fully understand what life is, We must go to the Scripture records of one or both of these men Thus the account of the first perfect man. as recorded in Genesis. states that Adam was in perfect life when he possessed a perfect physical body. was perfect mentally and normally, had a perfect home in the garden, with perfect food and climatic condi- tions to continue in for all eternity and God as his Father. with whom he could commune, to he his forever, pro- vided he did not disobey Gods com mands If he did so. the result would be the withdrawal of everything that Adam possessed. and he would uti- motely go into the grave, for God had said the result of his disobedience would be death First, when sin en- tered. he became morally imperfect
 
 God. Thirdly. he was driven out of his perfect home amongst thorns and thistles: thus having imperfect food for sustenance. he began to grow i'm perfect physically as well as morally. until finally. as the record shows. within nine hundred and thirty years of a thousand-year day Adam lost everything he had in that perfect con dition, and as the record shows he re- turned to the dust from which he was taken: or as two Of the prophets put it. Adam was as though he had not been.
 This means that only those who are alive at that time, are to be blessed. but that all in their graves are to hear the voice and come forth and are to have an opportunity of walking up the highway of holiness; the devil is to be bound, all evil and vice restrained. so that everything will be conducive for man to learn righteous and to hate evil, thereby gaining perfect light and happiness. That during the thousand year reign of Christ on the earth, Christ is to restore to all of Adams children who are found worthy the perfect life that was forfeited by Adam in the Garden of Eden. and that at the end of the thousand years the devil and all the wilfulIy wicked will be de stroyed (not preserved in lake ot fire) with everlasting destruction, while the righteous will have gained back again that which was lost namely. mental perfection. moral per lection. physical perfection, and per feet home. perfect communion with the Heavenly Father This they are to enjoy in all eternity upon the earth, which is to abide forever; that Christ is to reign until he has put all enc mics under His feet. and the last en- env to be destroyed is death: He will wine away all tears from off all faces' that weeping may endure for night hut iov cometh in the morning; that as Job states it. My flesh shall be fresher tha: that of a newborn babe. Also that the desert shall blossom 10 the rose and man will plant and eat and build and inhabit and long enjoy the fruit of his hands; for then VIII have been brought to pass the saving "Oh death. where is thy sting. on grave where is thy victory"

 THEME. Speaks Two Hours, But Audience

A large number of students of the International Bible Students associa- ton. with others not connected with the organization. but equally interest ed in gaining a knowledge of the Bible. occupied seats on the city hall plaza last night, when J. H Cole, travelling lecturer of the association spoke on the subject, What Is Death?"
 Long benches were drawn up on the walk at the east side of the building, and there were probably three hun dred people present. The address of NIT. Cole lasted two hours or more. but his eloquence. and the sincerity with which he charged every state ment, made his audience lose track of time.
 MT. Cole handled his subject in a very masterly way. proving every point by Scripture, and said that if we cannot prove what we say b. the Scripture we can place no trust in it. He said that everywhere we go we can see the doctors signs. the druggists signs. the undertakers' signs. and we recognize that there is something back of it all, which is death He said that the majority of mankind had tried to soften matters a little by saying that when we die we really are not dead Some. that when we appear to die we pass either into a Heaven of pleasure or an eternal place of agony, where there is no relief but this IS not what we understand from Scriptural teaching. If we would say that there is a life that never lives it would be nonsense; so it is equally as nonsensical to say that there is death that never dies.
 He went on to say that contrasting terms is one of the best ways of com nrehending the matter. and that the Rible contrasts life with death, one being the antithesis of the other; thus ,ve realize that darkness is the ab- sence of light and that death is the absence of life.

OPIUM, WHISKY AND GOVERNMENT
DECORATIONS.
w. G.. T. u.

Would that America knew how to
conduct reforms as does poor old
heather China! The difficulty, Of
course, comes from the fact that we
live in the ''land of the Free" while
the Celestials are still benighted by
the ancient idea that they must obey
law. That is why China will have
voted out the opium habit and traf-
fic long before we here shall have
gotten a firm hold on the liquor sit
uation which, for US. is just as SER
ious as the opium habit for the ORR
ent. The work of reform is grow
ing. A great German minister who
visited Szechuen, the former princi-
pal opium market, reports:
This great center of opium now,
for the first time within memory,
finds itself without a crop of opium.
The prohibition of opium cultivation
has begun suddenly, drastically and
actually, and the people seem to take
quietly. Not sign of opium have
l seen, but instead one sees wheat,
vegetables, etc., all growing, with
prospects of cheaper foodstuffs next
year. In all parts of the empire one
may now see men wearing honor
badges, bestowed upon them by the
government for renouncing the OPT
UNI smoking habit
Now that's a suggestion worth
adopting here in America. Wouldn't
it be fine for our government to pre-
sent medal to every man who So
bers up and stays sober? There's
many wife today who would rather
see her own drunken husband wear
ing a government-stamped medal
for sobriety on his breast. than to
have him sport trophy from the

The present pastor, Rev. F. j. Bar

$4,000 toward the new church. Dur
ing this time they have also contrib

OFFICIAL RED TAPE.
Making q Live Man Prove He Was
Also Alive Last Month.

1t would be very generally admit
ted ia ordinary business circles that
if a man is living at the age Of fifty
years he has been alive in anv one
of the fifty years preceding. This
however. would not be the case II
the auditing department of certain
government bureaus. There must
be evidence Of the man having been
alive, for example, on his fortieth
birthday. The point is made plain
by Sir John Adye in his "Recollec-
tons of a Military Life
at is sometimes supposed that
red tape is peculiar to official de-
partments at home, but that is an
error. There are large consign
ments of it sent to India, and will
give an instance. One day at Simla
an old artillery officer called on me
and requested me to give him a GER
tifcate of his being alive, as the
auditor refused to give him his pay
without it.
''He seemed to be well and lively.
and | therefore complied at once.
AS his visit was in August, | dated
the certificate accordingly. On look
ing at it he remarked: 'Ah, you have
dated it August! That is of no use.
l have already given them one of
that kind, but what they require is
certificate that | was alive in July
'This opened out a new aspect of
the case, but after consideration |
certified that to the best of my be-
lief he was living the previous
month. Whether he ever received
his pay am not sure"
Another instance of doubt as to
previous condition is given in the
same volume. In 1889 the shah Of
Persia paid second visit to Eng
land. Sir John Adye had an inter
view with the royal visitor one even
ing at large gathering. The con-
versation was through the Persian
interpreter.
Looking about the room and
seeing a general officer at some dis
lance, the shah inquired, who is
that great man in a red coat?' re-
piled that it was Sir Edward Black
