"Preparedness"' was the themf taken by Kcv. II. B. Hostetter at Westminster Presbyterian church last night. It was spiritual preparedness, however, that he discussed, basing his remarks on St. Paul's vords to the Kphesians: "Put on I tin whoh armor of fiod." "Talk about half the world being I at w ar," de declared, "here is a war- ; far in w hich the whole world is ini fdvcd.

HE MONEY MA Rev. T. J. Parsons Says Many Value Land Higher Than Mansion in Skies. Worldly amtdtion leads to anxiety, and anxiety is the saw which frets the neres to shreds; the frost which bleaches th hair; the bullet which pien e th'i hearfand. l'ts the life blood flow," declared Rev. 1. J. Parsons in his sermon yesterday morning on "The Priinncy of the Kingdom." a ontin nation of his se ries of sermons on "The Sermon on the Mount." "Anxiety is the tool which chisels the lines of c are upon the face; tho poison which derar.ias the digestive organs; the enemy which hounds the suicide to his grave. Anxiety H the curse to humanity and a sin against AlmiKhty ;d. Anxiety is useless, and worse thin useless, for it never added a cubit to your height, nor a day to your life, nor a dollar to your fortune, nor oiu thrill of happiness to vour heart. "Our I.rd delivers some wholesome and timely teaching concernin;' the relative values of earth and lifaven, oi maie:iai aim .-puim.ii things, lie declares the Kingdom of Cm) to be the biggest thing in the universe and righteousness the most desirable possession. If this teaching was needed in Christ's day, how : much more is needed in this materI iaiistie axe? But how many of us j accept this injunction at its face ; value? No. we resort to the exer cise ol oar intellectual g miiasncs and exhaust our inventive genius in an endeavor to neutralize the unmistakable meaning of these words. World .Money .Mad. "The fact is the world is money ..-.ad; material weaMh is, at a premium. Mammon u ;od. We send missionaries to enlighten the poor benighted heathen who makes his devotions before an ivory image of Buddha, while we bow down to idols of gold and silver and throw ourselves under the Juggernaut of the almighty dollar. (Iain is godliness for many people, and the only religion they know is how to get rich quivkly. Material values have been boosted out of all proportion, so that a corner lot in Mutn i.t-nu is esteemed of greater worth than a mansion in the skies. A prosperous farmer in Iowa was asked if he did not want to go to heaven, and he replied: 'No, Iowa is good enough for me.' That may seem funny, but really it is pitiful. "Jesus is not denouncing honest business methods, nor laudable ambition, nor a fair remuneration for services rendered; but He is warning against exalting the spirit of Mamom nabove the spirit of God; loving earthly treasure more than heavenly riches; the folly of caring more for body than the soul that inhabits it; thinking more of clothes thati of character, and working your head off saving for time while you are losing eternity by indifference and neglect. Antidote for Worry. "The Saviour's antidote for worry and anxiety is threefold. First, a heavenly bank account. Paradise bank is never robbed and it never fail.. Second, a loing. trusting dependence upon (Jod to supply our needs. We have to trust Him for life, why not that which ml listers to life? Third, an absorbing interest in the kingdom and righteousness of (tod. Bringing a lost world into harmony with (Jod is great businos. "The specter and bugaboo of master of anxiety. It is not today but tomorrow', and fretomorrow which never that kills, quently a comes." OPEN GOOD ADDITION Salesmen Are Pleased Hay's ales.

mm p War Department Asks All Still in Camps to be First Thoroughly Equipped. WASHINGTON, July 17. The war department sent orders Sunday to all department commanders to delay transportation to the border of national guard organizations now mobilizing until they are thoroughly equipped, and organized. The effect wdl be to revoke a ruling issued when the Mexican situation was acute, waiving certain requirements. The order affects about 15,000 men still held in the camps. The latest information of the department is that about 100.000 national guardsmen are now -at the border. With the .".0.000 regulars there and 5,000 additional men called from the reserves, officials estimate that there is sufficient force to cope with any present emergency, and will make unnecessary the dispatch of any more guardsmen until they are completely equipped and organized. Published reports that use of a general draft was being considered to fill the national guard ranks were denied by the department tonk'ht. Claim No FwmI shortage. Reports that national guard units are being supplied poorly and insufficient food are not borne out in preliminary telegraphic reports received from all the department commanders today. These ac counts uniformly declare that there has been no food shortage among the guardsmen and that all have been supplied normal army rations of good quality. A message from (Jen. Funston to. day reported that On. Trevino had sent many troops south with the intention of occupying the Guerrero and San Borj i Santa Rosalia line against any possible northward advance of bandits. The dispatch added that newspapers in (,'hiruahua were urging the necessity of an active campaign against bandits "to prevent their reaching the United States forces and the border."
