youth is the unfolding of the beautiful
rose-old age is the whitening of the
beautiful flower of Gods creation
Then he began plucking the petals
from the rose representing wasted
years of neglect to serve God until
the rose was robbed Of all it's beauty
and fragrance, and people sometimes
offer a wasted life like that to God.
Then the test was put to the people
present asking how many were con-
verified before 20 years of age, and the
majority of those present testified that
they had been saved before that time;
then between 20. and 80 years, only a
few responded, and no one had been
converted after so years of age. That
proves that the chances of becoming
a Christian become less as people pass
20 years of age and the dead line is
at so.

tian bondage represent the sinner in

represents Christ. Canaan, land
flowing with milk and honey, repre-
sents salvation. The children of Israel
decided to leave Egypt, but Pharoah
refused to let them go. When the
unsaved decide to leave the world and
be a Christian Satan always refuses
to let them go. After he sees they
are determined to leave he offers four
compromises-frst that they "sacri-
flee to the Lord their God in the
Land"-many are trying to be Chris
tians in the world; second, sacrifice

have left their possessions in the

their heart is. Moses did not compro-
mise, so the children Of Israel left
bondage with all they possessed.

A LETTER FROM SAMMY AT THE
FRONT.

(By ]. A. Lutz, Tarpon Springs.)
It's little you good people know .

When called upon to take up arms
To guard the country from all harns
At break of day the morning gun,
At reveille with fife and drum,
To break the soldiers sweet repose.

The sergeant comes and struts about,
Saying, Hurry, hurry boys, turn
out"
In front and rear he forms line; n
Announcements and S, 7ord do shine;
We have a tall heute aant here
Who treats his men most too severe.
He'll punish them-there's no de-
Tense
Though guilty of the same offense.
AS to our grub, we get enough,
Although sometimes it's little tough
But as to that we shan't complain
We hope to get good grub again.
But now you'd better look about;
We Sammy boys can shoot and Shout
We are going now to blow our horn,
And make the Huns wish they'd never
been born. 4

Sufferers from indigestion or dys-

This acid causes the food to ferment

rise to noxious gases which distend

tons of vital internal organs, cause
acute headaches, interfere with the
action of the heart, and charge the
