The Church OF Jesus Christ OF Lat
ter-day Saints accepts Sunday as the
Christian Sabbath and prociaims the
sanctity Of the day. We admit with
out argument that under the Mosaic
Law the seventh day OF the week.
Saturday. was designated and OBJ
served as the holy day. and that the
change from Saturday to Sunday was
a feature OF the apostolic sdministra-
ton following the personal ministry
OF Jesus Christ. Greater TO us than
the question OF this day or that in the
week. is the actuality OF the weekly
Sabbath, to be observed as day OF
special and particular devotion to the
service Of the Lord.
The Sabbath Was prehgured IL not
definitely specified in the record OF
the creation, wherein we read. fol-
lowing the account OF the six days OF
periods Of creative effort: And GOO
blessed the seventh day. and sancti-
fed it: because that in IL He hac
rested from all His work which Goo
created and made" CGen. 2:3)
In the early stages OF the Exodu:
in a double portion Of mama on the
sixth day, for the seventh was con-
secrated as a day of holy rest; and
this was signalized by the Lords
withholding mama on the sabbath
day. CSee EXC. l6:2S-SO) There is nc
proof that Sabbath observance by
Israel at this early date was an inno'
walton; and II may be reasonably re-
garded as q recognition OF an estab'
lished order by re-enactment in the
new dispensation. Later. when tht
Decalog was codified and promulgated
on Sinai, the Sabbath law was made
particularly explicit, and the LORD:
rest was cited as its foundation:
Remember the Sabbath day. to
keep it holy. Six days shalt thoJ
l1abour, and do all thy work: But thu
seventh day is the Sabbath OF th'
Lord thy God: in It thou shalt not dC
any work, thou, nor thy son. nor thy
daughter, thy manservant. nor thI
maidservant, nor thy cattle. nor tn!
stranger that Is within thy gates
For in six days the Lord made HEAVIER
and earth, the sea. and all that Ii
them is, and rested the seventh day
wherefore the Lord blessed the Sab
bath day, and hallowed it." (EXo
COSTLY
The keeping OF the Sabbath as
day of surcease from toll and OF par
ticuIar devotion came to be a nations
characteristic OF the Israelites, where
by they were distinguished from pa
gan nations: and rightly so. for tn
observance of the holy day was speci
/ fed as a distinctive sign Of tn
| covenant between Jehovah and HI
4 people, (See EXC. 31:13)
In the course OF Israelitish histor
successive prophets admonished an
rebuked the people for neglect
proclamation Of the Sabbath. Nehemial
ascribed the affliction OF the natio
to the forfeiture OF Divine protectio
through Sabbath violation (see Nef
ls:l5-2g; and by the mouth OF Ezeki'
the Lord reaffirmed the significanc
OF the Sabbath as a mark Of His cove
nant with Israel, and sternly uT
braided those who observed not III
day. (see EEek. 2O:12-24) To the de

THEIR HEARTS NOT BURIED
Many Instances OF Celebrated Men
Who Have Had Chief Organ OF +
Life Preserved. 3iifHf L. (

"A recently proved will contained the
clause that the deceased wished his
heart to be separated from his body
and preserved in spirits"
The request, though q singular one,
Is not without precedent. In 1909
Lord Burton made similar request,
and nine years earlier the Marques
of Butte ordered that his heart should
be conveyed to the Mount Of Olives
for burial. This was done by his
widow. Robert Bruce enjoined sim
liar duty on his retainer Douglas,
who may or may not have acceded
to the demand.
Shelly's heart is supposed to have
been rescued by Trelawney during the
cremation of the poet, but there is in
sufficient evidence fon the point. Da-
vid Livingstone's body rests in West
minister abbey, but his heart lies un-
