THE FALL AND UPL1rr OF MAN.
By Mrs. J. P. Boltin, Medford, la.

Bedford, Iowa, April 29.-After the
creation of the world and God saw that
man had fell from the majestic of his
mighty power he began to search the
creation and no help was found there;
and looking into the fixed worlds no
help was found there for the redemption
of man, and he searched high and low
into the extreme north, south, east and
west, no redemption was found for the
fall of man, and looking into the heaven
of heavens searching his abiding places
where he himself dwells and the majes-
ty of his love the angelical hosts of
God in the heavens and no help comes
through space from any direction, and
God then began searching the great /
am. Jehovah God and in through the
self Of the God Head of himself he
found wee lamb hidden way back in
the word Of God and he bid him come
forth, and as he found it was his own
world which came stepping forth by
the power of God, fearing nothing but
the will of God saying, Father prepare
me body and I will go down and re-
deem man. / bring him out of the sin
full world Satan has placed him in.
will bring him out of these satanic dens,
the houses Of i'll fame, the liquor traffic,
the saloons, the base ball, the basket
ball, the card tables, dominoes, check
ers and gambling devices of all kinds.
I will 90 down and die as living sac
rifce for man. So in the pleading word
of God he found that he had in himself
the redemption from sin through him
self and man for man as bleeding sac
rifce, making way for man to come
back to God as he was in the first of
the creation through the power of God
born of the virgin Mary. Grew up to
manhood and as the great word OF God
came stepping forth on time we hear
John the Baptist, his forerunner, saying
behold the lamb Of God and at the age
Of thirty he began distributing the
words Of God to the multitudes, the
dead heard and arose, the hungry was
fed, the deaf were made to hear, the
dumb to speak and he healed all man
ners Of diseases, then we hear the Son
Of God say all these things, that I do
man must do, because / must go back
to, INV father, and will send you the
comforter the gift Of the Father, which
is the Holy Ghost, and when he is come
he win guide You into all truths what
soever he has heard of me. Is the
world meeting those conditions todays
Are we paying the price God required q
for this sacrifice to Jehovah for the
lamb as long as we do not meet the
conditions Of the sacrifice given on Cal
varye We must continue to pay the
price we have just paid in this terrible
worlds war, and continue to give our
sons. husbands and loved ones up to be
a sacrifice for the disobedience and sins
of the world there is nothing IN man
that can please God but obedience to
his divine word. There is no man that
can form plans over those laid down by
the Father. If we sin there is famine,
wars and rumors of wars, pestilence,
sickness, death and destruction on all
sides for us. If we obey God there, IS
peace, joy, happiness and life everlast-
ing in the world to come.

-cIt Pinch of War,

Even far away Iceland felt the pinch
Of war. An increase in the average
prices Of necessaries at Reykjavik, the
principal city, last July amounted to
211 per cent when contrasted with
their cost in July, 1914, as shown by
data appearing In the journaIsS the

coar and petroleum, which show In
creases over prices In July, 1914, Of
1,O51 and PIT per cent, respectively, be
omitted, and the comparison be linn
tied to articles of food alone, it is
stated that the average increase was
100 per cent, as compared with july
1914. The extent to which certain of
the principal groups of food have risen
in price in Iceland since the outbreak
of the European war may be seen from
the following official compilation:
Bread, 261; flour, oatmeal, beans, ETC.,
284; sugar, 1856; coffee, tea, cocoa,
chocolate, 100; butter, fat, milk,
cheese and eggs, 235; beef, mutton,
bacon and pork, 136.
