IN HIS GLORIFIED BODY and when He comes He will

vessels: company ready for translation.

Zion Must Now Go Toward

DEACONESS A. O. LEE
Many nations of the earth tonight
Are rent with war and strife.
And the news of death and suffering
Makes sad our daily life
Yet we feel this awful struggle
Has only just begun,
And many weary month may pass
Before the victory's won.
We see the church on every side
So formal, dead and cold;
They do not live for Christ the King
And preach the gospel DID,
There seems heavy darkness
Now settling DER the earth;
And as the night approaches
There comes dreadful dearth.
But in the midst of this conflict
An awful night of sin
Another nation rises,
Which must the victory win.
lis not by might and not by power
But by my Spirit saith the Word
ZION MUST Now Go FORWARD,
And on, her armour grid.
Her helmet is salvation,
Her sword the Word of God:
And many blessing has come to earth.
Where eer the saints have trod.
This nation is so SMALL SO SMALL
| hear my critic say
That is quite true my brother
But THERE'LL COME BETTER DAY.
Great things have small beginnings
And if every link in the ZION chain
Holds firm and true for righteousness
The work will NOT BE VAIN.
Let us rally to the standard,
Let us raise the banner high,
Preach d free and full salvation
And tell them Christ is nigh.
There is no time to idle,
To falter and to wait
We must be up and doing,
1t we'd enter the pearly gate
livery wrong HuSC Oe maze right,
Every sin be put away.
LAY THE FOUNDATION DEEP, friend,
GET ON THE Rock TO STAY.
For the time has come, dear people,
When all who are going through,
Will have to show their colors
And prove themselves TRUE BLUE.
If we are going to stand the test
And come through the fire pure gold,
Well have to let the dross burn out,
And be witness bold
And the knowledge of Jehovah shall cover
AS the waters cover the sea-"
He'll come for you and me,
If we will faithful be.

believe for minute that the socaed Churches Of today
the Bride of Christ believe there in them that
belong to the Bride of Christ

do not believe that the Bride Of Christ INDUCES to-
bacco and whisky
do not believe that the Bride of Christ sits down in
the lap Of the world and permits the world put his
around her.
do believe that the Bride Of Christ is engaged in
Irritation with the world the flesh and the devil.
The Bride of Christ is a virgin
The Bride of Christ knows no lover except Jesus the
Christ.
The Bride of Christ is putting the wedding garments
of purity and getting ready for the great wedding.
You cannot think the worlds thoughts, speak the
worlds Words do the worlds deeds and be part of the
Bride of Christ If you part of the Bride of Christ
the world will hate you and despse you, and will seek to
destroy you.
You cannot deceive God.

We want the positive life.
The Gospel of the Kingdom of God is not made up of

Another point that want to emphasize this morning, is
this God the Almighty has this EARTH He had in the
beginning who represents Him and who speaks
with authority.
If this organization has Divine authority; if can
do-as-ke and go-as please and if you do the
if you under the authority of and if there is
Divine authority this earth, then what is the to
bother?
If did not believe that called of God Almighty to
this position would walk off this platform this morning,
and would not think of being such fool to stay in
position to which had not been called Any man that
stands up and calls himself "a preacher and talks about
preaching the Gospel whom God has not called, is fool
h 1t is quite evident to me that there are hundreds
who doing it, because their utter failure positive proof
that God the Almighty has selected them and has
never sent them out. Gods messengers do not fail.
SATAN HAS ROBBED NEARLY EVERY BIBLE DOCTRINE
Not only has satan robbed Gods people of the glorious

erations are concerned, is the light Of
Helgoland, from the fact that it il

naval war zone. Helgoland was coded
by Great Britain to Germany in 1890
in return for concessions made to Brit
ain in East Africa.
The Helgoland light is an electric

many, and is claimed by the Germans
to be the most powerful light in ex
istence. The light consists of clus
ter of three revolving lights, having
lighting power of 100000 candles

mounted by single light of the same
kind and size, that can be revolved
independently and three times as fast
as the three lights. The single light
is put into use in case of accident to
the cluster of three. The electric
power is generated by two steam en-
gines and boilers, running belt-driver
electric generators.

Queer RelaIan VILLAGE.

Surrounded as 1t is by Dutch terri
tory, Bar-le-Duc, a little undefended
Belgian village in the north of the
province of Antwerp, has unique geo.
graphical position, for the Germans
cannot reach 1t without violating the
neutrality of Holland. 1t possesses
its post and telegraph Office, in direct
communication with French and Dutch
post offices, and people in Britain can
easily correspond with Barbecue via
Flushing and Tilbourg (Holland). For
that reason Barbecue post Office has
become important, and good use
is being made of that fact in obtain
ing help for the Red Cross society.
Special postage stamps of the value
of five, ten and twenty confines, are
being sold at ten, twenty and forty
confines, of which sums half is set
aside for the Red Cross society. The
post Office of Belgian Monaco has OBJ
tanned such celebrity that there is a
great demand for these Red Cross
stamps as souvenirs.

WORSHIP A SPURIOUS RELIC
"Tooth" Of Buddha, venerated by MIL
lions, Not the Sacred Object
II 10 Believed to Be.

At Handy. in Ceylon, Is kept
Buddha's tooth, which is the object
of the unbounded reverence OF more
than four hundred million people.
When this holy molar was brought
to Ceylon in the sixteenth century,
Randy was only a mountain village.
Now thousands of pilgrims go every
year to the gorgeous temple where
the tooth reposes, bringing gifts OF
every kind, gold and silver ornaments,
coins, jewels and even fruit and flow
ers. The kings of Burma and Siam
send annual contributions toward the
support of this temple that holds the
sacred relic. which has rather
strange history.
1t is said to have been the left eye
tooth of Buddha and to have been
taken from his ashes $500 years ago.
For centuries it was the marriage
dover going with certain favored
princes.
In the fourth century after Christ
it was taken from India. then the
Mala bars secured 1t. 1t was after
ward captured by the Portuguese, who
took it to Goa. where 1t was burned
In 1850 by the arch bishop in the pres
ence of the viceroy OF India
But spurious tooth had to be pro-
vtded to effect an international mar
riage. and the molar of wild boar
or ape was used. Its dimensions show
that it could not be a mans. for it Is
two inches long and an inch in diam
eter.
On important occasions 1t is dis
played, but only at distance. It IL
sometimes carried in professions on
the back of an elephant.

more interesting patents for 1914 10
a specification for wheelless motor
car. propulsion being by means of
skids, which are alter-Ately lowered
and raised. In the early days of loco
motive history many inventors did not
believe that sufficient adhesion was
to be attained by a smooth wheel
operating on smooth rail, and weird
and wonderful were the devices for
overcoming this supposed defect One
ingenious engineer went SO far as to
design contrivance in which jointed
metal bars worked up and down on
the rails after the fashion of a horses
legs. and there seems to be certain
affinity between this device and the
motor car referred to above.

TWO STORIES OF THE OPAL

A husband gave his wife an opal

The husband lost his job. The wife
became an invalid. Just before she
died she gave the opal ring to her
sister. The sister, knowing the his

it would bring and burned the ticket.
A wife presented ner husband with
an opal ring. For two years Jones.
who owed him money, had walked on
the other side of the street. Jones
paid him on the first day he wore the
ring. His mining stock went up FIVE
points on the second day. The third
day his salary was raised. Love nor
money could not purchase that opal
ring.
A man dropped into q Maiden lane
jewelry shop the other day and, TAX
ing of an opal ring set with pearls,
said:
IN pearl has dropped out of my
ring. I've worn that opal ten years,
and 1t has brought me nothing but
good luck"
The jeweler picked it up, put his
lens to his eye and said:
do you want the truth?"
The man hesitated at the question.
YES" he drawled slowly.
1T isn't an opal; it's merely a
piece of colored glass. The pearls
are limitations"
rs that the TRUTH" he said slowly.
1T is" said the jeweler.
The man put the ring into his coat
pocket.

As he passed out of the door sud
den inspiration came to him.

tendant who held the door open for
him, wear this. 1t will bring you
good luck" And he gave the opal
ring to the colored attendant and
walked out.
