DROBABLY the most popular Of all
Christmas plants is the poinsettia,
often called the Christmas rose.
This Is priced for It's dazzling rosette.
Of scarlet leaves which grows high up
above the equally beautiful dark green
sOliage.
These scarlet leaves, which measure
from four inches to a foot across, are
usually referred to as the flowers, but,
correctly speaking, they are not flow
ers. When these great heads Of scarlet
leaves are fully grown they will re-
main in this condition from ten to
twelve weeks. The poinsettia is very
easily cultivated. It grows IN any
good sandy soil and delights in warm
atmosphere.
The flowers viii be much larger and
finer If the plant is given little stim-
ulation in the form Of liquid manure
for few weeks previous to its bloom
ing. After it has stopped Towering
about the middle of February-it should
be dried off and turned on it's side in
a warm place until May. The cellar is
suitable If there is a furnace; If not,
select an upstairs closet The plant
will become just like dried stick,
but will be alive nevertheless. When
fine spring weather comes put the pot
outside and water it well. It's surpris-
ing how quickly it will start to grow,
but before it has made much growth
cut It back to the stump. Next shake
off about two-thirds Of the old soil, re-
placing it with fresh soil composed of
good garden loan and sand. When cut
the number Of shoots will increase, and
each shoot means head of bloom.
Immediately after the blooming sea
son is the proper time to propagate
poinsettia, which anyone can easily
do. After cutting the plant back to
the stump and allowing it to rest as
first described take the canes or
branches which have first been remov.
ed and cut them in lengths Of about
six inches. Be careful in making the
cuttings to keep the tops all one way
as they are now only dry stems. Fill
a four or fve-inch fowerpot with loose
sand and stick the cuttings in this (bot.
tom DOWN to the depth Of about two
inches. After the cuttings are in place
tap the bottom of the pot on the table
sharply several times to settle the
sand. Now water thoroughly and place
in a sunny window. Afterward water
slightly, just enough to keep the sand
damp. The cuttings will soon begin to
show signs of growth. When sure
that they are rooted (Which should take
about six weeks) transplant them into
separate pots, using the soil first men
toned. They will grow in these pots
during the following summer. Always
keep them in the full sun and there
will be little difficulty growing them

ing before the God of the earth."
Rev. 11-3-4
Now dear readers we are
presenting you with a subject
and Bible fact. Which cannot
be explained under the one man
theory. This we will find out as
we proceed with this Sermon.
As we have said many, many
times, that God has two witness.
es in every thing. Even In the
dead leaf that falls 10 the ground
after it has faded on the tree.
And we shall give you such plain
evidence from Gods word on
those two Witnesses. that the
reader viii have to see-Which
will establish the two man theory
beyond any doubt. 1t will leavt
no room, for questioning our
theory of the two men-The one
created on the sixth day and the
other one, formed after the sew.
eth day, And we further state
that it hecame necessary that
there should be two gospels, for
those two people. And 10 giving
you th"se two gospels. it will
make manifest tbe difference
there is, in The teaching of the
one man theory. And the gospel
of our Lord and Saviour Jesus
Christ under the two man
theory, For God says in our
Text. a portion of those two wit
nesses are HIS two olive trees
standing before the god of the
earth"
Now what can the one man
theory preacher say those two
olive trees are? All the ans wer
that they Can give, that proba'
bly, two witnesses were named
because it took two witnesses tC
constitute q valid testi mony
under the mosaical Law, In
uttering such a statement they
make God ous liar aud this will
not do tor God cannot lie.
There can be no probabilities
with COD. God said that be
would give power to his two
witnesses. And that they
should prophesy a thousand two
/ hundred and three score days
clothed in sackcloth."
There Is no room for a pro
bahlity in this saying. God
speaks a positive fact, that is.
that he has those two witnesses
and that he will give them pow
