THE wonderful new fur-cloths are SO
! like the skins which they initiate
that they appear in all outside gar
ments made up with genuine furs used
as trimming. They do not suffer in
the least by comparison with these.
. The owner of coat made of ex-

bitterness mixed with her pleasure in

DR.. PORTER HEARD

Church Filled to Its Capacity and
Many Favorable Comments

Last night DIR. Porter Of Dallas
preached to a packed house at the
First Baptist Church, and many were
the favorable comments made by those
present, some saying that It was the
most powerful presentation OF the gos.
pei ever delivered in Bryan. while
many Others said they had never
heard greater sermon anywhere, all
agreeing that II was a powerful dis
course and that Bryan was fortunate
in getting to hear him. His text was
taken from John 14;14: IF a man
die, shall he live AGAIN." His subject
was THE Life That Lasts" For three
quarters OF an hour DIR. Porter, with
reason and Scripture. showed that
there was Il life beyond the grave.
Three reasons were given why we
shall live anew. The first was the
Unborn desire TO live on in the breast
of man. God would not plant 1t there
and then fool the man. The bird
knows when spring and summer come
and takes its fight for the North and
there finds green swards and hanging
fruits. II God will not fool the bird
certainly He will not fool you. The
lungs have a taste or appetite for air
and God has filled this world forty
miles deep with atmosphere for the
lungs to breathe. God has satisfied
the eye with fields elysian and the
colors of the rainbow. He has salts.

word we are promised everlasting life
by believing in Jesus Christ Heaven
and hell are forever, and why so un'
less man Is to live on and on. Jesus
