IMMORTALITY.

BY REV. JUNIUS B. REMENSNYDER

Who hath abolished death, and hath brought life and Immortality to light. —ll. Tim, I, 10. The two greatest facts that confront man are life and death. In nature they appear as an alternate aeries. The life and beauty of spring are succeeded by the fading and death of winter. But this white sepulchre only proves a fostering cradle in which worn out nature is resuscitated into all the charm and vigor of new life, and in this alternate series the process goes on forever. Nature then does not die, but is invested with immortality.

Maa’s death, contrariwise, is shrouded in mystery. No mortal ken can follow the spirit’s trackless path; Are there, then, any means by which we can get light on this great question of immortality? Are. there reasonable grounds for the trust that we shall survive death?

Philosophy is not against it, for the greatest phllosophers have believed in it. Science brings affirmative testimony to it The modern law of the conservation of force shows no loss or destruction of force or matter. Energy changes, but does not die. Evolution points to a constant unfolding and progress to higher forms of being. The overmastering desire for immortality is one of the strongest grounds for the future life. Just as the lens of the eye points to a world to be seem or the wing of a bird Indicates ass aerial medium for flight, so conclusively does the desire for continued existence prophesy its reality. Nature 1b not a He. She does not taunt us with false promises. The vitality of the spirit in advanced years is another argument “The soul does not age with the body,” wrote Emerson. A normal man or woman grows in wisdom, spirituality, sympathy, tenderness, charm and moral, beauty, so that it is true of such, “at evening time there shall be light” Such lovely personalities only seem to die. The husk and shell falls from them, but we feel that the

spirits cannot but live on beyond the grave, beyond the worlds. Strong corroborations as are these, they are not decisive. We crave for assurance upon a matter of such vital moment And it can come only from one source—revelation. Should not God speak to those to whom He has given this Irrepressible longing and settle it with a word of certainty? And so the Scripture assures'us that He haa done. "Jesus Christ hath abolished death and brought life and immortality to light” He decaired the great that "all live unto God.” Our eyes see deaths, but God knows only life and sees death but to be a phase of life. Death Is, then, but a stage of development We enter the future very much as we have left the present life. We will progress in knowledge, in holiness, in happiness, or in the evil courses and tendencies of our earthly lives. And in view of this fact, how Important becomes the state in which we enter that life —prepared or unprepared, sensual or spiritual, the servants of God or of the evil one?

Lastly, in the light of this great truth of immortality, what grandeur attaches to life! How incalculably it Is increased in value when we see it under the aspect of eternity! What care one should have to his acts when they are seeds reaching out into undying ages! How different become our alms and plans when they are not to be broken by death but to be carried forward on larger scale hereafter!

Visions for Choice Spirits.

Come close to God. He may take you today up into the mountain top. For where Ho took Peter with his blundering, and James and John, those sons of thunder, who again and again so utterly misunderstood their Master and His mission—there is no reason why He shall not take you. You ean hardly be farther back than they w„ere. So don’t shut yourself out or it and say, "Ah, these wonderful visions and revelations of the Lord are for choice eptrita.” They may be for you. The Lord win come to those that are humble and of a contrite heart and who tremble at His WorA—McNeill.

The Joy of Souls.

We can close out the sunshine from our homes by blocking up the windows. The sun shines all the same. So We can also refuse to admit the sweet, life-giving sunshine of Christ’s presence and sunshine into our,lives, but He shines forth, the light and joy of soeds all the eaime.—Rev. Henry W. Little.

A man is never safe in rebuking another. if it does not cost him something to have to do IL—Andrew A. Boaar. If you cannot be touched by the needs of eajrth the bliss of heaven will not Induce you to make any worthy BSAUtfllOe. K’s a poor kind of happiness that MW wants to Mng without a hym-

HERE IS A THRILLER

How to Give an Electric Shook White Shaking Hands. To receive an electric shock while shaking hands la quite a mystery to your friends. This may be accomplished with the aid of a small induction coll that can be constructed at home. The core, A, Fig. 1, is constructed in the usual manner with small soft iron wire to make a bundle about three-sixteenths of an inch in diameter and r about two Inches long. The coil ends are made from cardboard about one inch in diameter with three-slxteenths-inch hole in the center. When cutting the hole, cut it as shown in Fig. 2, so as to leave four small pieces that can be bent out, leaving the projections as shown. After wrapping three or four turns of paper around the bundle of wires the cardboard ends are put on with the projections inside, so the coils of wire will hold them in place. About 70 turns of No. 24 double-covered magnet wire is first placed on the core for the primary and then 1,500 turns of No. 32 or 34 double-covered wire is wrapped on top of the primary for the secondary. Sufficient length of wire must be left outside from each end of the vibrator directly opposite tions. The vibrator, B, Fig. 1, and the support, C, are made from thin spring steel about one-eighth inch wide, bent as shown and securely fastened to the cardboard end of the coil. The armature is made from a soft piece of iron about three-slxteenths-inch in diameter and three-sixteenths-inch thick, which is soldered to the end of the vibrator directly oposite the end of the core. A small screw is fitted in the end of the support, C, for adjustment, which should be tipped with platinum placed where the screw will toiich the vibiator, B.

One of the primary wires is connected to a flash lamp battery, D. The other primary wire is connected to a switch, S, which iu turn is connected to the other terminal of the battery. The switch, S, may be made from a three-eighths-lnch cork with the wires put through about three-slxteenths-inch apart and allow them to project about one-half inch. The plate E is cut about one-half inch square a piece of copper and is

fastened to the heel of one shoe and connected with a wire from the secondary coil which must be concealed Inside of the trouser leg. The other secondary wire is connected through the coat sleeve to a finger ring, F. The vibrator screw must be properly adjusted. When the vibrator is not working the armature should be about one-sixteenth-inch from the core and directly opposite. The coil when complete, says Popular Mechanics, will be about 2 % Inches long and one inch in diameter. The coll can be placed in an old box that has been used for talcum powder or shaving stick. The space around the coll in the box can be filled with paper, to keep it tight. The coil and uattery are carried in the pockets and the cork button put in the outside coat pocket, where it can be pressed without attracting attention.

Marriage In Southern Nigeria.

Among all tribes in Southern Nigeria polygamy is the rule, the reason given by the natives being that it is Impossible for one woman to do all the work of the house, look after the children, prepare and cook the food, fetch the daily supply of water (often Bn-arduous job), cultivate the plantation and go to market. And the reason is that the African is an exceedingly hungry person. It is their custom to eat several times a day when at home, and the men spend most of their day sitting in the palaver house, or market plac >, while the' women bring the food all day long. One wife could not possibly do this. Besides, the African lady encourages it, for she says: "The more wives the less work.” Among the Ahiaras, Onlchas, Obuwus and the lower class of pagan tribes in the interior there is very little form of marriage. As soon as a man has the means he pays the parents what they want in the shape of goats, cows, beads, money, and takes the girl. There is no ceremony at all. The more wives he has indicates a richer man and that he will be: better looked after. If of course they ;can manage to seize a woman from the neighboring tribe while she is fetching water or working on her farm so much the cheaper. With this method in vogue for centuries no wonder that it is as much as a native’s life is worth to go out of his own village and that the country is so backward.

A Real Snake Story.

An old hen with a large family of small chickens was recently given an empty barrel turned down on its side for a coop on the writer’s premises One day recently the’hen gave the signal of distress usea by all good gran gers, and the barrel was quickly sur rounded by the fighting members of the household.

A large snake. found in the barrel and quickly lynched. Several buncos were noticed on the reptile's body, ahd he was ripped up the back with a pair of shears, and seven chickens were found gagging for breath. They lived. -> ... . _
