CHAPTER VI.

If the Eagle Tail mine had been lo- cated in Arizona-or even farther down in Old Mexico-the method of jumping the claim would have been delightfully."- simple.
 The title had lapsed, and the land had reverted to the governmental 1t needed in Arizona was a new set of monuments, a location notice at the discovery shaft. a pick and shovel thrown into the hole, and few legal formalitiee.
 But in Mexico it Is different. Not that the legal formalities are lacking far from it-but the whole theory of mines and miningsis different In Mex leo mining title is, in way, a lease, a concession from the general gov ernment giving the concessionnaire the right to work certain piece of ground and to hold 1t as long as he pays a mining tax of three dollars an acre pear year.
 But no final papers or patents are ever issued, the possession of the sur face of the ground does not go with the right to mine benath 1t, and in cer- tain parts of Mexico no foreigner can hold title to either mines or land.
 A prohibited or frontier zone, eighty kilometers in width, lies along the in ternational boundary line, and in that neutral zone no foreigner can de. nounce a mining claim and no foreign corporation can acquire title to one. The Eagle Tail was just inside the zone
 But-there is always a 'but" when you go to good lawyer@while for purposes of war and national safety foreigners are not allowed to hold land along the line. they are at perfect lib. erty to hold stock in Mexican corpora. tions owning property within, the pro. hibited sone; and-here Is where the graft comes in-they may even hold title tn their own name # thay nrst

Death could be wisely permitted. In
view of the power to be exercised
by Messiah's Kingdom. Backed by
Power Divine, Messiah will be quite
competent to cope with sin, sorrow,
pain, death-everything that now trou-
bles humanity. The time appointed of
the Father, a thousand years, will be
abundantly long. When the Church
will have been selected from the world,
as the Bride, the Lambs Wife and
J~oint-heir in the Kingdom, everything
will be ready for the blessed work of
bringing all the willing and obedient
back to the image and likeness of the
Creator, lost through Adams sin and
gained by Christ's death.
Encouragement to the Church.
Our text addresses, not the world,
not the nominal Church, but the true
Church. These, having turned from
sin, having accepted Christ, having
given their hearts to God, through
Christ having been accepted Of the Fa-
Their and begotten of the Holy Spirit,
are children of God; and, as the Apos-
tie says, "If children, then heirs; heirs
of God and joint-heirs with Christ"
(Romans SID. A crown of glory is
set apart for each son thus received of
the Father, and the name of each is
recorded in the Lambs Book of Life.
So far as God is concerned, the mat
ter is settled. But 1t still remains for
the Chusch to fulfil their Covenant.
Having presented their bodies a living
sacrifice, they are to continue in that
attitude-daiiy- presenting their bodies
gladly, willing to endure, to suffer,
to be anything and everything that
God would be pleased to have them be.
ALL who do this continue to grow in
grace, knowledge and Characteristic
ness to the Lord Jesus, and will there
by make their calling and election sure.
But should any neglect this Covenant
of Sacrifice, and through fear of death
be subject to bondage either to sin or
to sectarian errors, they would there
by fail to maintain their election and
to make 1t sure. After a time of test
ing they would be relegated to a sec
ondary place; they would no longer be
COuIIcu VI lut llOJdl IIltbLuOOu, cfCH
though they might still maintain their
standing as Levites, servants of the
Priests.
The thought of our text is: BE of
good courage. 1t will not be long I'M
til l will come to receive you to My
self. Let the thought of the Kingdom
cheer, strengthen, comfort you, and en-
able you to do Gods will faithfully,
nobly, c~ourageously, Loyalty. Do not
let slip from you the blessed relation
ship which | established for you when
[ made you acceptable on the basis of
your Covenant to be dead with Me. to
suffer with Me, to strive daily for the
great prize of joint-heirship in My
Kingdom.
"The crown is yours now, by virtue
of the arrangement which / have
made with you as your Advocate and
of the Covenant of Sacrifice which you
have made with Me. DO not allow
your crown to pass to anotherl If any
one of you is unfaithful, God will not
permit him to have a share in the
Kingdom, but will apportion another
name instead of His"

Scots Tanqo-Stricken.

Tango is to be the rage in Edinburgh
during the present dancing season.
Such is a plain statement in conven-
tional language, which is all the more
emphatic because of it's directness.
In fact, all Scotland is in the grip Of
the tango craze. 1t has spread to
Scottish bathrooms. and is suppressed
ing the waltz and the twO-step. Soon
the fascinating importation from the
Argentine, say the authorities, will
blot every other dance out of the ball
room program.
Tango as taught in Edinburgh by all
the teachers Of dancing without ex-
ception is a dance of infinite beauty
and charm, and one requiring a con-
siderable amount of talent in which to
be proficient. The teachers of dancing
in Edinburgh are very conservative i'll

MONEY FROM CHICKEN FARM
California Woman Has Proved That
Such an investment May Be
Made to Pay Well.

Mrs. Annie Beasley recently saw the
possibilities of chicken farming, and
she turned to California for an ideal
climate She started with a small cot
tage and one acre of grOund-but she
started right Today she owns a ranch
of several acres and confesses she has
an annual income of handsome proper
tions
Her first flock consisted Of one
rooster and seven hens, but all were
pure bred-bought at the Los Angeles
poultry show. That year she had only
two chicken houses, but the next year
increased them to four, and the follow
ing to eight Now she has a big ranch,
but the strain of her poultry has al
ways been kept pure, so her prize win
ners are worth the $25 she charges foT
them-and they eat no more corn than
mOngrels.
Incubators and brooders are kept
running all the year except in July,
August and September, and the little
1ocks, as they come along, are divid
specimens are ready to be groomed
with washings and bluing and the
others receive three times a day all
they will eat of milk, oatmeal and
grain to fatten them Mrs. Beasley
has found that it is even more profit
able to sell egg at So setting than at
SO cents a dozen.
