The American Forestry Association

in the country to plant tree this fall.
It will send free tree planting instruc-s

Why Some Prayers Are Not
Answered
By Deacon Theodore Forby

That men ought to pray to the Father in
the Name of Jesus Christ to supply their
needs is everywhere evidenced in the Word
of God.
| The thought. which suggests prayer is
ones needs. There is within man a yearn-
ing for things beyond his grasp, and. if
these things be proper for man to have,
! Gods Word teaches to ask the Father to
supply them.
Christ said: "Ask, and ye shall receive
seek, and ye shall find knock, and it shall
be opened unto you. But it seems plain
| that He meant one should ask, seek, and
| knock, not for useless things, or to possess
for extravagant purposes, but to secure
needful things to be utilized for the advance
ment of mans Divine mission: l. e. conse-
Grated service to God
Jesus said: "When l sent you without
purse, and scrip, and shoes, lacked we any
thing? And they said, Nothing"
The trouble with most men is that they
are selfish and unthankfu1 and forget that
| their sole duty is toward God.
The Apostle Paul pictures this class,
when he says in Romans ri, Because
that, when they knew God, they glorifed
Him not as God, neither z0eye thankful;
but became vain in their imaginations and
| their foolish heart was darkened x
wherefore God also gave them UP to un-
cleanness through the lusts of their own
hearts, to dishonor their own bodies between
| themselves"
James, the Apostle, answers the question
| definitely why prayer is not answered when
he says (James 4:1-3): From whence
! come wars and hghtings among you? come
they not hence, even of your lusts that war
in your members?
eye lust, and have not; ye kill, and
desire to have and cannot obtain: ye fight
and war, yet ye have not, because We ask
not.
"Ye ask, and Yeceive not, because We ask
amiss, that ye may consume 1t upon your
lusts (pleasures)."
| Why, then, are some prayers not answered.
! O Christian, what is your motive If God
gave to you, what would you do with His
gift? Would you use it as from God, or
!, would you consume it upon yourself? =
would you heap to yourself treasures
while all about you were those in need of
just the things you possessed in abundance
Think you the love of God is there?
"But whose hath this worlds good, and
seeth his brother have need, and shutteth
up his bowels of compassion from him, how
dwelleth the love of God in hin?"
The truly rich man, and the one most
beneficial to his race, is the man who looks
upon all his possessions as a sacred trust,
as gifts from God, and uses them in way
to glorify God.
Love is the fulfilling of the law = and in
perfect love for God, mankind cannot be
forgotten, neglected, or left without all the
help and comfort within the power of one
to give
Every man, therefore, may help to answer
his own prayers by being true to the prin-
ciples which open to all power and to every
blessing.

Many weak wife is poisoned to death,
slowly, but surely because being constantly
compelled to inhale her husbands disgust
ing and deadly fumes of tobacco!
The tobacco smoker is very selfish man
polluting the air, and many woman often
suffers in silence because of tobacco!
Formerly, the men used to apologize for
smoking in the presence of ladies, but now
a-days, since many ladies p smoke, the
men apologize less and less, and in most
cases which have come under nv observa-
tion-not at all!
Shame on you selfish tobacco smokers
Shame on you sinking men!
When was young boy, over forty years
ago, my own father threw away his cigars
and gave up smoking because he became a

smoking was wrong, but when he gave his
heart to God, he said Il cannot, as a Chris
tian, consistently smoke tobacco"

Stunned tobacco.
One young boy four years of age used to
pick up his fathers thrown away cigar
stunps and chew them!
You have no right on Gods green earth
to smoke tobacco. By smoking ard blowing
your poison into the air, you impose on
your neighbor and make him breathe
poisonous stuff whether he likes it or not
You cause disease!
You make people sick!
We find you everywhere, you "stinkpots,"
just as we find the mosquitoes!
We smell you just as we smell the skunk!
We try to hide from you, to run away
from you, to escape from your fumes and
your breath! 0 how fearfully you stink!
1t may come to this, that those who refuse
to be smelled up and slowly killed by your
poison must wear neutrality-suspicious.
NETS, and enclose themselves, as protection
whenever they go on street cars or enter
into any city halls, municipal institutions
banks and offices where you sit!
When Jesus comes, and He will soon be
here. tobacco must CO. be destroyed, AN

THE ANNIHILATION OF TOBACCO
By Apostle Carl F. Viking
believe in the annihilation of toba,

believe in the annihilation of tobacco
Except in Zion, go where you will and
you will be smoked to death. Almost every
office stinks with tobacco. Men of business
and learning smoke, smoke, smoke. The
air is thick with hell-fumes. Society is a
smoking caldron!
And in this mess there are preachers and
missionaries who smoke This is a sad
spectacle. What terrible habit they have
fallen into! What disgustingly sinking
Saints" they have become!
They are sowing and reaping death
death, death 1t would make the angels
weep.
0 these babes, how they suck away! as
if it were mothers milk putting, sucking,
blowing tobacco fumes from hell-sticks and
hell-tubes
Sweet milk of the Devil in these pipes
and pipe-handles O how the Devil gloats
over the babes! What splendid business he
gets because of their examples!
They smoke, smoke, smoke until their in
sides become internal regions, and every
vestige OF. the body oozing nicotine!
0 how they stink with tobacco; and how
they can stink up the church and poison
the atmosphere! They make mans abode a
sinking tobacco-hell!
believe in the annihlation of tobacco.
And the money they burn up Thousands
of dollars contributed for Church and Mis-
sions goes to tobacco! Money laid on the
altar, sacrificed to God and sent forth for
the redemption of the heather = smoked up
in havanas!
0 how the ladies of the mission circles
and the sewing societies and the Busy Bees
and Dorcas, ETC., hustle and work to raise
money for the pastor and the missionary in
the field who both smoke and stink and
blow tobacco at the rate of $4,000 per year
These poison-machines are supplied and
kept going by the church
Many young boy gets his first taste for
tobacco by initiating his father in childish
play-playing grown up!
Many an infant is poisoned before birth
by nicotine and choked to death after birth
by his fathers tobacco-fumes

GOODNESS

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow
me all the days of my life; and will dwell
in the house of Jehovah forever
Psalm 23:6.
The only way to do good is to be good
1t is what you are at your work, in your
office, IN your home, or alone among
strangers. Your actions are what will count
when your life here upon earth is finished,
and you are ushered into the presence of
God to have your account balanced up.
Upon which side of the ledger will your
balance appear?
Gods purpose is for men and women
to live the kind of life He revealed in His
Son. Jesus the Christ.
Let this mind be in you which was also
in Christ Jesus '-Phiippians rs.
The true Christian finds JOY of spirit and
Deace of mind in following in the steps of
Jesus.
The result of such life is kindness and
good deeds to others.
Be honest, true and loving in your inner
most self
Let your motive be pure and nothing can
defeat you.
Opinions may be put on and off like
clothes: words are controlled bv vonr will.
BUT DEEDS ARE WHAT COUNT.
Do not permit yourself to be troubled
over the disappointments of life.
Remember the admonition of Jesus, when
He said: Martha, Martha thou art care
full and troubled about many things, but
ONE thing is needfu. and Mary has chosen
that good part, which shall not be taken
away from her'-Luke 1O:41 and what
was it Patience and freedom from care
and anxiety.
Choose the good part which shall not
be taken away from you Be good and
kind to others. Seek to copy the life of
Jesus. He went about DOING GOOD; He
had compassion on the wayward and erring
ones. No sinner was too vile for Him to
save; those who came unto Him He in no
wise cast them out
10 err is human; to forgive is Divine"
The sun has its spots.
Our best men have their scars.
Is there one who has been tempted and
tried, yet without sin?
We must partake of the Divine nature
and forgive others if we would grow in
the grace and favor of God.
Do not be discouraged.
The kind and loving invitation of Jesus
rings down through the years: Come TN
to Me all ye that labor and are heavy laden,
and | will give you rest"
Let your life be filled with goodness and
mercy, then you may be permitted to dwell
in the house of Jehovah forever Selected
