Adventist Cites Bible Proof.

"Al the modern inventions which have sprung into use within the last centuru are in direct fulf1llment of the Bible," declared F. l.. Abbott at the Y. NJ. c. A. hall in this city on Thursday evening. His subject was Wonders of the Twentieth Century.
 In the Bible is the explanation of the great inventions as well as of many other things we see about us in the world today, the speaker said, The prophet Daniel spoke of a time when many should run to and fro and knowledge should be increased Dan 12:4 This text has received It's full dll11ent in the automobiles, street cars, trains, steamships, telephones, te1e- graphic conveniences, electric lights. airships, and a host of other common things of today.
 There is a reason why all of these inventions have come about recently. Christ said before He went away that the message of the kingdom should be carried to all the world before the end should come. These modern in ventions are vehicles in which this message is conveyed to the world. The Gospel has been preached to nearly all tn world Then according to Matt 24: 14 the second coming of Christ can- not be far away.
