nothing to do but study the counten-

1t is true that We may read newspa-

nothing to do Immediately after the

vogue that the occupants may smoke
in the rear of the car-on or about the

permission while travelling in closed
up cars? l am sure We would all ap-
preciate the privilege. A SMOKER.

fContributed.]

(Contributed.1
Last night the big tent was again
filled to the extent OF its capacity by
those who were anxious to find out
what the Bible has to say regarding
the Turkish question. This subject
was taken up in the lectures several
weeks ago, but, there have been 80
many requests to review 1t before the
lecture course closed. that 1t was de-
cided to do So Practically all OF the
worlds greatest statesmen agree that
the Turkish question Is the key to the
situation Of the present and near
future; and the Turks themselves, al
though they are nearly all Moham-
medans and do not accept the Bible
at all, are laying their plans to do just
exactly what the word of God says
they will do.
The rise OF the Ottoman empire and
its history up to August II. 1910, as
prophetically portrayed in the ninth
chapter OF Revelations. were carefully
studied last evening. In this chapter
was found one of the most wonderful
prophecies in the Bible, foratelling al
most 1900 years before It took place
the exact time to the very day OF the
month, August IL, 1910, when the
Turks would cease to exist as an In
dependent nation. About two years
before the fulnllment OF this prophecy,
the Lord unfolded II to faithful
Methodist minister. who published 1t
and made 1t known to the world. The
great majority of the people scoffed
at the idea, but their scomng did not
in the least hinder the prophecy from
being fulfilled; and the many who did
believe 1t were not disappointed when
on. the exact day which the prophet
foretold, the affairs OF the Turkish
empire passed into the hands Of the
great powers of Europe, at whose suf-
ferance Turkey has just existed since
that time.
1t has been finally: decided to take
down the tent while it is dry, and the
lectures for the rest OF the week, be-
ginning with tonight, will be held in
the church ut Seventeenth and Elk
change.
The lecture this evening will be a
continuation Of the Turkish question.
The prophecy of Daniel IL and II will
be taken up, where 1t tells just what
disposition will be made Of the Turks.
also of some events Of great moment
to the people of Keokuk, that will
take place at that time.
