that he cannot do any work on my be-
half because of my unbelief. 1t is IN
belief which erects the barrier. In the
case of the army facing certain ami
hilation, only one thing remains to be
done, and that Is surrender if death
be not preferred. AS long as the weap
ons are used and battle offered, the de.

certain perdition-he fights against the
Judgment and wrath Of God. There Is
no escape, and can be none save by

jured should be the one who can and
will guard the sinner from the effects
of the injury.

I am judged for myself. And if I find

None else can get it for me. 1t IS
q personal matter. In the center Of
my own will lies the answer as to
whether I shall go down to eternal de-
feat under the judgment of God, or
whether 1 shall rise superior to all the
future holds of wrath. 1 go down by
opposing myself to God; 1 rise by
yielding to him. 1 find eternal death
by fighting him; eternal life by sur.
rendering to him. 1t is my own choice
which I shall have.

First Census Since Augustus.

Space is lacking for more than
brief survey of the accomplished
works. First of all, it is fitting to
speak of administration. The entire
occupied region north Of the London
frontier has been divided on the Ital-
ian model into the province Of Avlona,
the province Of Argirokastron and the
district (circondario> of Chimara, with
q total population of 1G5,459 persons,
almost equally divided between the
Moslem and the orthodox Greek faiths.

Soap should be used very carefully. if

poos contain too much alkali. This
dries the scalp. makes the hair brittle,
and ruins it.
The best thing for steady use is just

is pure and greaseless). and is better
than the most expensive soap or any
thing else you can use.
Done or two te%aspoonfuls will cleanse
the hair and scalp thoroughly. Simply
