THE sELF-lMPRovEMENT CLUB.

The annual dance of the Self-Im-
provement club took place on Thurs
day evening, 2Sth inst, at Fern hall
and in short all that gaiety, grandeur
and magnificent display could af-
ford was exhibited. Artistically de-
signed and jewelled gowns after the
latest American and Partisan fash
ions of the ladies, with the conven-
tional evening dress of the gentlemen
lent an aspect to Fern hall that could
not be surpassed by a New York S
Pre-lenten Fair or a Boston's Mid
winter. The decorations were in the
while the floor was specially pre-
pared for the occasion. This event
being looked upon by the specially
invited guests as the highest and best
social of the year is the result of the
determination of the club to set
standard for others so that Denver's
society may be proud of her we'll
merited name. Morrison's orchestra
having gotten inspiration from this
grand spectacle swayed the dancers
with hesitation waltzes, etc, which
appeared at times to have trans
ported them to some eternal realms
of music. Being quite a privilege to
get an invitation to this event the
fortunate ones can emphatically as
sert that the satisfaction they re-
ceived from this rare enjoyment
gives the club a position second to
none.
A few out of town guests were
present, who entered so heartily into
the entertainment that they could not
help expressing themselves in praise
of the management who carried out
every detail successfully
Well done for the club, and as our
witty writer puts it, your Bons may
be there and your Commo circle
alright. but oh! you SELF-IMPROVE-

THE DESTINY OF THE WICKED.

What is the destiny of the wicked?
This question is worthy of careful
and candid study: Thoughtful men
have asked throughout the centuries,
What is this mysterious doom of
death which overshadows all?" Men
scarcely arrives at his maturity be-
fore his strength wanes, and he is
compelled to submit to the ineXorable
power of death. With millions of
others of his fellow creatures, he lies
down in the dust, and the portals of
the tomb close about him. All who
live are but handful to those who
sleep. Unaided by divine revela-
tion, man stands dumb before the
question of what lies in the future.
From beyond the curtain which
divides the present from the future,
through the millenniums of sin since
Adam lost Eden, none have ever re-
turned with tidings of what lies hid
den there.
Our question concerns the unnum-
hered host of the lost. Through all
the centuries since the fall of man.
millions have spurned the offers of
mercy, refused life, rejected it's
Author, and died in their sins. What
doom awaits all these? What will it
end of sin and sinners? Will sin be
destroyed, or will the curse forever
remain? Will the sinner exist eter-
nally, or finally be destroyeG These
queries have to do with the eternal
destiny of the greater part of the hui
man family. For broad is the way,
that leadeth to destruction, and many
there be which go in thereat," while
the Way to eternal life is said to be
narrow" and few there be that find
it," Matt. 1:13, IA.
Before each of us is a destiny we
cannot escape it; eternity stretches
before u.s. Righteousness has it's re-
ward; so has sin. What awaits the
lost in the great beyond? This inter-
esting and stupendous question can
not be solved by human speculation.
Grouping in the uncertain twilight of
scientific conjecture, men have
reached some very strange and
erroneous conclusions. During all the
centuries. some have arisen to tell us
that there is no future life beyond the
tomb; that death is an eternal sleep.
Others have taught that sin has it's
own punishment in this ife, and in
the future all will be saved; that the
Scriptures promise universal saliva
ton; that all men, whether, believing
or unbelieving, will finally enjoy the
felicity of endless happiness. The
modern orthodox belief. based on the
unscriptural assumption that man
possesses inherent immortality, teach
es that the wicked will never die;
that through endless ages they will
live and be tortured in the perpetual

POLISH FOR COFFEE BOILER
BY the Use of oxaIic. c.Aeid,the utensil
May Be Kept in the Best of
Condition.

A shining copper hot-water boiler
adds much to the appearance of
kitchen, as all housekeepers know.
The boiler may be kept in state OF
brilliancy by the use of a solution
of oxalic acid and water. Five cents
worth of the acid dissolved in n
quart of warm water win last
through many cleaning days.
Best results are obtained by apply
ing the solution to q warm boiler.
After one application Of the solution
the boiler should be gone over with
a cloth wrung out in warm water
and then polished with q dry cloth.
The best part of the process Is that
no "elbow grease" is required. In n
few minutes a duh, dingy boiler be-
comes bright and shining with but
little effort.
All copper articles not having a
lacquered surface may be cleaned
with this solution, and it also serves
as brass polish.
Keep in a safe place, as oxalic aetd
is poison.

fire of Gods vengeance, preserved by
his power to suffer unspeakable
misery in the avenging flames of his
indignation. The horrors of this
orthodox belief have been expressed
by the poet in the following lang
uage:
Infinite years in torment shall l
Spend,
And never, never, never have an end.
Ah! must l live in torturing despair
AS many years as atoms in the air?
When these are past, as many mil
lions more
AS grains of sand that bound the
ebbing shore?
When these run out, as many more
behind
AS leaf of forest shaken by the wind?
When these are spent, as many more
to flow
AS blades of grass on hill and dales
that grow?
When these run out, as many on the
march
AS starry la4hps that oild the spangled
arch?
When these are gone, as many mil
lions more
AS every moment in the age before?
When all these doleful years are
spent in pain,
And multiplied by myriads yet again,
1 must in that fierce gulf in misery
lie,
And madly writhe in all eternity"
A year for every mote that dances
in the sunbeam, a year for every
grain of sand, year for every leaf
of the forest and for every blade of
grass, year for every star in the
firmament, year for every thick of
the watch since time began its flight,
then this infinite multiplicand multi
piled by a myriad! Then when all
these years of torture are past, an
eternity of unspeakable suffering still
stretches before lost souls in which
to curse and blaspheme Godl Talk
about gloomy doctrine, Behold it
here
While the quotation above is only
poetry, these words of the poet are
true provided man by nature has an
immortal, indestructible soul, and the
lost are conscious in death, and en-
ter on their reward in the lake of
fire when this life ends. Such teach

MAKING THE MOST OF LAMB
Housekeeper VIII Find This Arrange
ment a Help to the Cutting OF
Her Bills.

Every housekeeper is on the look
out to save in these days OF high
cost of living, especially in meats.
Here is one way to save mutton or
lamb. If, on Saturday, forequarter
of mutton or lamb is purchased,
weighing from seven to ten pounds,
it should be divided as follows
Shoulder, neck, breast, French chops.
bones and trimmings. The shoulder is
boned, pocket cut for filling, that
makes the roast; stuffed shoulder of
lamb or mutton for Sunday dinner
az ID cut cold for Monday luncheon or
supper.
Then the neck is boiled with the
shoulder bone and trimmings, mah-
ing two quarts of lamb BROTH to be
used for soup for Mondays dinner.
The meat is trimmed from the neck
bones for lamb croquettes, meat salad
or loaf. The breast is stewed, OF
curried with rice. The choicest part
is left, that is, one dozen frenched
lamb chops. I'D.
OF course, you must be able to tell
your butcher just how you want it
cut and trimmed. The chops are
frenched, chine removed, but the
chops are not cut apart. That is left
for the housekeeper 10 do, cutting just
as needed. The trimmings from the
chops are boiled with the neck and
bones, strained, and when cold all
fat is removed and clarified for drip
pings.
From this forequarter you have the
following dishes, always for four per
sons:
Roast stuffed shoulder, hot for Sur,
day dinner

Monday, with soup 1.-TWO quarts for
soup stock.

Enforce This Law.

The law relating to automobile
trucks that requires q license Of 500
is DOW in force, and We would direct
the attention of all officers il the coun-
sy, sheriffs, ragistrates, constables,
and rural police to see that this law IS
enforced. Some may regard the license
TOO high, but If these will follow IN the
wake of one OF those road monsters, and
observe the damage they do to our
roads, and especially 10 our bridges,
they will agree with US it will be wise
il they are debarred from the highways
altogether. One of these automobile
trucks ladened with beliy-wash. known
as soda water weighs several tons. and
when they strike an ordinary bridge it
jars every JOINT, and .ioosens every
plank, very often breaking the planks
and thereby making any travelling
dangerous. We would urge Super
visor to prosecute the very first truck
owner who defes this Law; regardless
of who he is. We understand that one
of the owners of a truck has served
notice that he will test the validity of
the Act, let him bring on the test, and
If the courts decide against the county.
another Act is in contemplation which
we know that Mr.. Belly-wash pedler
will have to test before he will
be able to run his road-ruining ma

county. Collect the 800 license or
Jail the man running over these roads
In defiance of law. It is not every
time threat to test the law is made
that it is done, it very often plans out
to be great big bluff, and as much
as such threat has been made we
want Clarendon's officers 10 call the
bluff, by strict enforcing of the Act.
