HAVE YOU GOT A BIBLE? Somebody asked, “When is it going to end?" "Why, it’s just begun," is the answer. Referring, of course, to the Democrat’s distribution of the greatest Hi- I Ide ever published. It did look for a •while ns though some of our readers would have to be disappointed, but additional shipments are now on the way and everybody will be supplied in time. ® The Democrat recognizes the fact that there are numerous “illustrate i” t Bibles offered to the public. But they contain merely pictures of biblical j scenes taken al random from various sources and inserted without regard to subjects of chapters. Some Now Testament scenes are inserted in the ’ Old Testament iind vice versa. Thus j they entirely lose their educational ? value. In this Bible there are more than 600 illustrations printed with the . type, so that they make plain the verse which they accompany. Those who are not familiar with the Bib’e will catch many a new meaning aided 1 by these illustrations. Then this Bible also contains full page color plates I from the wonderful Tissot collection, each of which has been selected with the same object of explaining the j<•- < companying test matter. So with, til respect to other Bibles, the fact remains that this is the only really, il’ns- ( trated Bible. No difference how many other Bibles you may new have, this one ex- : plains and makes clear the many subjects illustrated; and even though you ■ may have no religious beliefs, such a work will be found an invaluable aid to education. ! In addition to the educational helps, the copious marginal references and ‘ the beautiful colored maps, every proper name in this illustrated Bible is separated into syllables and marked j for pronunciation, being treated the same as in a dictionary, so that mispronunciation is impossible. This is one of the most important features o’ i this great work and is of immense value to both young and old who find it difficult to pronounce Bible names. Don't wait, but bring in your certifl- 1 cates and get your Bible. Today’s certificate is printed on another page. ’ o TO THE HONEYWELL PARTY. 1 Tis glorious to meet with friends Who prove so staunch and true, But sadness creeps into our hearts When we must bid adieu. Adieu, dear friends, whom we have met Upon this earthly home; May we meet again in the future years. Around God’s glorious Throne. . May Tie keep us all from sinfi\ deeds ■ And make our lives shine bright, To help a sinful one to come Unto the Shining Light. And when we meet around thb < Throne. , Where He and angels dwell, We know thaLwe will clasp the hand Os Dr. Honeywell. , McCombes. they, too, will shine , within The glorious brightness there. The Biases sing the songs we sang And play the golden Lyre. ( Had we ne’er met on this earthly home We ne’er would had to part: But the friendship brought with It to all A clean and saintly heart. May God go with you through the land Unto your journey’s end. And take you al! to a Heavenly Home Js the wish of your grateful friend. —G. C. S. HOGS FOR SALE. » i Hampshire hogs at hog prices.
