‘WHAT IS HELL? 1 IS ANSWERED BY PAWN TALK The Reverend Line Gives His Version of a Big Question. “What is hell?” was asked by the Rev. Fred A. Line of the Central Universalist Church Sunday while speaking on “The Lost Soul.” “It is a condition of life consequent upon disobedience of law,” the Rev. Line said. “Hell is love's method of awakening conscience and purifying life.' “Punishment in the divine economy is not a manifestation of hatred but the sign and instrument of love. We have been told that the lost are in hell. "Who are the lost? The number is legion. You and I belong to the number, and all others who fail to appreciate in full the power of God's love. Point out to me a perfect man and I will show you another Chirst. The self-satisfied Christian who thinks that he has been washed whiter than snow, that he belongs to the saved of God, has much to learn. The most religious man has need for more religion. )| “Men living in Eden’s garden, not having tasted the fruit of knowledge and life, have magnified in thought their own goodness and greatness, pointing the finger of scorn and condemnation at their so-called unsaved neighbors and friends. “Do you remember the word of Jesus to the Scribes and Pharisees who were constituting themselves as self-appointed judges over the conduct of one who had sinned. He that is without sin among you, let him cast the first stone at her. How many stones were cast? Ponder yourselves over this question. His Reply “Were Jesus with us today his reply to those who murmured against the waste of precious ointment would undoubtedly be the same, Let her alone; she hath done what she could. In His sight the honest, aspiring publican, not the self-right-eous Pharisee, would be justified. The good Samaritan, heretic though lie might be, rather than the religious priest or the Levite, would be recognized as the true disciple. It is life that counts, and every man has capacity for life. Every man is lost to some of the beauties of life's deeper experience. . No man loses it all. “We can draw no line of division through the earth, putting the saints on one side and the sinners on the other, and say that the former are elected to eternal life, while the latter are elected to eternal misery. The clear-cut line of division goes through the heart and life of every man. On the one side we find all (that is selfish, impure and ungodly; k.n the other all that is clean and pure and holy.. The so-called lost souls of the earth are God’s children. “What shall be their doom? The way of the transgressor is hard. Hell is the portion of those who go the way of the ungodly—a hell of suffering and misery and wretchedness. Christ came not to save men from a burning hell, but He came to- save men from their sins. While the man who sins shall endure even as God endures, his way of life must perish. We don’t want to be saved from hell, but from the sin which results in hell experience. Hell is an instrumentality of goodness whereby we are brought back to God. The Lost Soul “What must be the destiny of the lost soul, the destiny of the race? Our only answer can be, larger growth, deeper experience, truer

Feel Stiff and Achy? If You Would Be Fit There Must Be Good Elimination of the Blood Impurities TO feel constantly lame and achy is often indication of improper elimination. The kidneys are the blood filters. Sluggish function, however, permits retention of waste poisons and is apt to make one languid, tired and achy, with dull headaches, dizziness and often a nagging backache. Assist the kidneys at such times with a stimulant diuretic. Since 1885 Doan*B Pills have been winning friends the country over. Ask your neighbor!

Mrs. T. W. Barker, Graduate >urse. 302 IV. Pecan St., Sher man. Texan, says: "Doan’s Pilli is the only proprietary med' cine I have ever, recommendc' I have not only used Doan" myself, with excellent result' but many times have recom mended them and have been thanked for so doing,’* Sworn to before me, John C. Dannel, N.P.

Oldest American Naval Officer

I ’ :C*.- • *•’ • SSg| * im m a

When Admirals Sims, Ebcrle and other illustrious high commanders of the American Navy of this decade were in their swaddling clothes, Charles A. Schetky, here shown with his pet pipe, was sailing the seven seas with a captain’s braid on his sleeve. Captain Schetky is not only the oldest living American naval officer, his 100 years make him also the oldest Mason. He's a member of Lodge No. 2. Philadelphia. life. The spark of divinity burns In every human breast. It is the business of the Christian to make of' this spark an illuminating force in the world’s life. Some of the world's greatest reformers and most masterful personalities have from the depths of hell. Leaving the way of the, ungodly they have walked the pathway of righteousness, and haye consecrated themselves to the great task of developing human souls and promoting in human experience and . life world brotherhood. The so-called unsaved men and women of the world have very frequently proved themselves to he saviors of men. “A Christian is not one who belongs to this or that church, hut one who has in him the spirit that was in Christ Jesus and who. is endeavoring to live the Christ life. It means more to say that a man is a man than to say that he is a Methodist or a Universalist or a Baptist. Religion, to be vital, must have its seat in the human heart, not in theological 1 tenets. It is our business not to put men into a blissful heaven or a burning hell of tororrow’s life, but to take hell out of present day experience by removing its cause, and to help in putting ourselves and all mankind in the path of heavenly experience. If you are helping to /build the life of God in the lives of men, then you are saviors in the sense that Jesus was the great sovlot of mankind,” the Rev. Line said. USE ‘SERVE SELF’ PLAN Adapt Shopping System to Nursery Business Proves Popular. The “serve yourself” plan of merchandising was adapted to anew use today when Bert Walton, 919 Broadway, nurseryman, announced the system was being employed at his nurseries in the selection of trees and shrubs. Walton, who has been in the nursery business for thirty-four years, said “People like to shop for their trees and shrubs just as well as for their groceries. I’m sure the plan will prove popular.”

Mrs. J. A. Loucks, 1111 Washington St., Jamestown, N. Y., says: ”1 am glad indeed to recommend Doan's Pills, because I feel that 1 am helping others by so doing. I felt that I needed a good medicine for my kidneys mighty badly. After using iust a few boxes of Doan’s Pills I felt fine and have stayed that way.”
