I use a rubber band to keep the coaster snug at the top.) Sure prevents spots on my tablecloths. I just throw the coasters in with my laundry when “need be.” Esther G. Smith • • • Dear Heloise: The iron-on patches on my grandson’s pants began to come loose at the edges. I ripped a portion of the out-
side seams of the legs and zigzag stitched around the patches. It is not only decorative but wears and wears . . . Mrs. E.

SCARED TO DEATH! "Fear and fear alone" it an injury sufficient to cause death according to a Federal Court jury in Seattle. Ralph Thompson, third mate on the S.S. Chena, died of shock the day after his vessel was driven into the center of Valdez, Alaska, by a tidal wave. An insurance company refused to pay accidental death benefits because Thompson suffered no apparent injuries, but the court concluded he had died of fright and held the company liable. Jesus said that a day of terrible trouble is coming upon earth, a time so frightful that men's hearts will FAIL THEM FOR FEAR (Man. 21:26). Literally, men will ha scared to death, it is easy when one Is secure to scoff at such an idea, but what if the horror weapons already stock-pHed in the world's arsenals were unleashed? The mind refuses even to think about it. We do net wish to peddle fear, but only to be realistic. The Bible foretells world-wide catastrophe; the potential for it is already in the hands ef erring men. Christ is the Way out. We exist to point men ta this Way. SEE YOU IN CHURCH THIS SUNDAY?

TN 1898, A NOVELIST named Morgan Robertson wrote a A book called “Futility,” which told how a beautiful new ocean liner, chock full of famous personages for its maiden voyage, rammed an iceberg one moonless April night, and sank. Fourteen years later, an actual steamship, under incredibly similar circumstances, actually did go down on April 10, 1912. What’s more, the name of the White Star liner that met disaster was, of course, the Titanic. The name of Morgan Robertson’s ship, product of his imagination fourteen years earlier, was the Titan!
