way. What is the PATH"
His fingers CROPPED blindly for the
flute.
What Is the way out of the laby-
rinth of youth-and sin-and prim-
roses? All. | have forgot"
With a sudden inspiration Sandry
stopped and picked up the instrument.
He had played a bit at college. Softly,
silverly, the joyous notes began, 'Je-
sus, Lover Of My Soul to go on to
that ancient plea of trusting faith,
Other refuge have | none, Hangs my
helpless soul on thee a strange voice
OF glory amid the death and danger,
the sin and stress OF the mom.rt.
A holy peace spread on the white
features.

traveller Of the hills, how could I for
get, That is the Way out"

many wings. All, it is Gods hand!

With that last whispered word the
wandering player of hymns, the
preacher to the irr~esponsibles and the
lover Of humanity fumbled stifiy at
his habits skirt. Sandry knelt, found
a deep pocket, felt therein and brought
out a small Bible Of a long-past day.
It's edges were thin and frayed and
greatly worn. Its stiff back, with the
ag~e-black, raised lettering, had long
since lost it's corners He knew it
instantly for the counterpart of that
n on Siletz' stand in the little south
room. 1t lad many openings Of its
own, and it fell apart, first at the
psalms and then at a passage whose
beginning caught his eye as he placed
It in the loving hands that made to
grasp its familiar bulk-and failed.
The stately words whose solemn fore
cast had struck him once when he
sought for some clue to the Preachers
identity now seemed to ring in his
ears, a ~stupendous requiem for the
~udLHeIeSS, H~lBH-SOuleu uIllleI-lIoIi tho
ways-Of-men who had spent his blame
less life in fanciful atonement for a
shadOwy wrong.
Who shall ascend into the hill OF the
Lord? He that hath clean hands and a
pure heart. Who hath not lifted up his
soul unto vanity, nor sworn deceitfully.
The Preacher was of that past
which he had so long forgotten and
which Destiny had decreed should
moment.

Handsome Home DESTROYED

The handsome home of Mr.. and Mrs.
Lewellyn Oliver. on Main street, was
totally destroyed by fire last Monday
morning at three o'clock, The fire
originated in the kitchen and was un-
der good Roadway when discovered and
Mr.. and Mrs. Oliver were forced to
come out of the window in the front
room, as the hall was full of smoke
when they were aroused. The rapidity
with which the fire spread was proba-
bly, due to the basement, which caused
a strong draught. Only a small amount
of furniture was saved from one room,
and the house and nearly all of its con-
tents werea complete loss.>
DR.. Murphey's residence, which is
only about fifty feet away, was ir
great danger, but luckily what little
wind was blowing was from the west.
But for the good work of the firemer
the house would undoubtedly have beer
destroyed, together with Mrs. Hardin
residence on the south.

thirty years ago by the late T. G. Phil
Ups and has always been considered on,
