AN INTEREST IN A GRAPHITE MINE
IS BETTER THAN
Bank Stock, a‘t £, Savings Account, oca Real Estate Investment
WHY?
Beeause.it is safer, and will pay three or four time* as much interest on the investment.
Bank stock may become valueless, savings accounts often evaporate and real estate is liable to depreciate in value.
But where jfuture deposits in the ground millions and millions of tons of GRAPHITE, in plain sight, for which there is an ever-increasing market ut very
good prices, it is absolutely safe and extraordinarily profitable to become a partner, with large or small holdings, in such an enterprise. This graphite cannot be
come valueless, will not evaporate and can never depreciate in value.
Within 43 miles of Atlanta there is such a mine, at Emerson, Bartow county. A WHOLE MOUNTAIN OE GRAPHITE, 30 acres in extent, with millions
of tons of the valuable mineral, visible to the naked eye. The deposit iB so enormous that it would take one hundred and fifty years of daily working to exhaust
even half of this deposit. • '
This mine is right here in Georgia, where investors can see it for themselves. It is now the absolute property, without any encumbrances whatever, of
some prominent Atlanta business men, who are preparing to install machinery this month, to mine, manufacture and market this GRAPHITE.
WITHIN A MILE of this mine there is another graphite mine, with $100,000 capital, now manufacturing tons and tons of graphite fertilizer filler eVerv
day, and earning handsome profits.
THESE ATLANTA OWNERS ARE GOING TO TAKE SOME PARTNERS IN THEIR ENTERPRISE.
This is the opportunity of a life time for conservative investors. ThereTs nothing problematical about this mine. It is there.—Intending investors can see
it with their own eyes. A large party of Atlanta capitalists is there today.
In this space will soon appear a fuller explanation of the chance to become a part owner in this Georgia mine, the property owned by Atlanta people, which

what Bethel was to J»cob.
The }ta»*rtd appealed to Abram, the
money. Once In Hodom. norm tKey

omites. Instead of lifting them up,
they were reduced to their level
loot's own wife fell In love with the
fAHhlons *.nd follies or the wicked ?tty.
and had to he dragged out by the hands
.of the warning angel when hse left, and
could not resist casting one longing
glance behind. and her own body be
came a monument of her olsobtdlence
and folly.
In our lesson Lot's choice has been
selected an an example of covetous
ness.
Many other example* art^ found fn
the Bible. Covetousness was the chum
of the fall in Eden, the cuuse of the
tftst fraetrlclde; that caused Arlian to
hide the wedge of gold and the gar
ment; that caused Oehfezl to accept the
gifts of Nonman; that prompted Ana
nias and his wife to lie and Judas to
betray hts Lord.
Our Lord uttered many warnings
agulUM It. Ii Is the great curse of
the world today. It Is the fountain
head of nearly ever crime. It Is the
cause of murders and graft and de
falcation*. It causes men to engage In
traffic that ruins character, that de
thrones reason, that para lyses con
science. that putrlihs the heart, that
fills our Jails and alms houses, that
breaks up the home, that damns the
soul.
The love of money, the thlnt for
gold, the Inordinate desire for wealth,
against which Hod’s word raises some
of Its most awful warnings, presents
Itself under a variety of aspect*. Pro-
teus-llke. It assumes sometimes one
form, sometimes another; but In wha*.
ever form It appears, a base, soul-de
stroying passion. It Is accursed of Qod.
Insidious as It Is fatal.
In such a country as ours, which
owes Its greatness to the fertility of
our soil and our commerce. w*hose
ships laden with the products of our
fields and factories, our mines and mills
plough the wuter* of every sea. In our
ran Houthladd. where the wealth In-
they _
There la oiiTyune class nf people
that, by the consensus of public opin
ion. should not be rich—ministers of
the gospel. And most of the churches
are careful that they shall not be.
They seem to think that piety and
poverty are synonymous, at least the
one In the concomitant of the other.
Like the elder who greeted the new
pastor by saying. "The Lord keep you
humble, and we will keep you poor."
But anme say the tide of fortune
flows In on us. In the Increased value of
real estate, In the fertility of the soli,
the money comes un prayed for. If *>,
If It flows In on you, then let It flow
out from you In as full a stream.
Be like yonder lake that refusing to
ba surcharged with water, when thun
ders are pealing and lightning* are
flashing among the dark hills, and .1
thousand foaming torrents leaping
down their sides, from a flood Into Ita
bosom, ere long pours forth a corre
sponding flood at Its exit, and giving
to the earth as it gets from heaven,
swells the .river, that rising on Its
banks, winds Its bright and blessed
way •inward to the sea.
Whatever may be said of the manner
In which Mr. Rockefeller has become
the richest man In the w*orld. he la not
building the walls of hla dam hlghei.
hut lets his money flow out In million*
for beneficent causes. There are bu».
few' who would do It. for the Increase
of riches only creates the desire for
more.
This all-consuming passion Is mani
fested by parents In their desire for
their daughter* to marry some rich
young man, even though he be a drunk
ard nr a libertine. Wealth weighs more
than worth, ('ash Is more than charac
ter. Whnt a man has. Is more than
what he Is. This Is one reason why
our papers today are filled with scan
dals and our courts with suits for di
vorce.
It Is also manifested In the desire f
parents to have their sons engage In
apostle Into an apostate; It turned
Judas Into a traitor. It can not be
safely made Dor saved, except by those
irhn receive and um It as a gift from
God,
The stem on which covetousness
grows l| selfishness, and the root of
selfishness Is sin. which can be elimi
nated from llic human -heart only by
the blood of Him who gave up Hla
heavenly home and crown that Ha
might give Himself for us. nnd In so
doing has given the world the only
perfect example of (inaalffshness.
