A Three Minute
Sermon
"DYING AMID TREASURES. !"
(By Geo. Gowen.)

go tDy ueO. 0OWCu.J
The Associated Press carries
the news of a man employed in a
Spanish bank who stole the key
to the strong room, seldom enter
ed, and visited it at night,
intending to carry off a large
sum of money. But while intend
on his booty he forgot the great
door that swung together by its
own weight. There was spring
lock to the door that fastened
him beyond all hope of escape.
And the poor prisoner could
only sit down in his despair and
wait and listen for help to come.
And this might be day. Mean
while he should die of thirst and
hunger. The hours sped on and
the gloom grew deeper. A rag
ing thirst consumed him. He
would have given all the gold
about him for one drink Of water.
What would the riches Of the
world be compared with his
freedom? How anxiously he lis
tened for some sound without!
But those deep walls shut out
alike all sounds from within and
from without. 1t was of no avail
that he beat the massive door
and cried and shrieked for help.
AS we'll might those deep buried
in the sea call'upon those above
to rescue them, How vaguely
he sought in bis despair for some
weak point through which he
might, with superhuman effort,
dig out q passage way to the
outer world. Sc near to him it
seemed and yet SO far away! He
would have welcomed detection
and exposure, yea and punish-
ment, If he could only have been
delivered from that living tomb.
HIS covetousness had been his
ruin. He had pressed his way
into the treasure house, only to
find how vain is gold and treasure
if man has nothing else.
Let us learn the lesson: there
are other unsatisfied and discon-
tented men who are preparing
for terrible doom. After years
of toll and sin and folly, the hour
of retribution comes. The miser
has gained money and finds out
how little it is worth, and dies
amid his rustlnf boards, The
business man has amassed wealth
and with broken constitution,
drags out his weary existence,
enyying the sturdy beggar at
the door, and leaving lis wealth
to be squandered by them who
count his death favor to them
and a blessing to the world.
The lover of sinful pleasure
glories in his shame, and runs to
an excess of riot, till at last
with broken health and shatter-
ed nerves, and rotting bones, he
lies lonesome, loathsome and
accursed, and finds that his
pleasures were his pain, and the
things he longed for proved his
ruin.
o brother man! learn the
lesson Of content. Sin brings
sorrow. Nothing which God
forbids can give permanent

Bunny Brief of the Kansas City
A. A team has shattered Association
homerun records. He has piled up
a total of thirty-three circuit smash
es.
Out in the Coast League, too,
they're smashing them as well as in
homerun headquarters at the Polo
Grounds and at all way stations in
between big enough to support a
ball club.
Maybe it's the lively ball. More
likely it's because they are envious
of Babe Ruth's limelight.
Fifty-two American Leaguers bat
ting over 400. Coupla Philadel-
phians, toe. But keep that dark.
NEW ENTRY TO HALL OF
FAME: Pitcher Rommel of Athle-
tics, first pitcher in Johnson League
to lose twenty games.
And yet you can't say that Johnny
Wilson was completely walloped.
Maybe he didn't beat Downey, but
he beat the public.
This Mr.. John Dempsey must be
figuring on a wild swing. He said
he'd referee the Kilbane-Frush ar
gument for $500.

the form of United States Treasury
Savings securities exactly suited to
every ones pocketbook, as they are

ity. They are particularly attractive.
not only in their security but they
are not subject TO market fluctuation.
and can be converted into cash at any
time at higher price than is paid
for them.
The rapidity with which even
small savings grow, the postmaster
states. is indicated in the fact that 81
