The Times-Enteipriss has repeatedly
urged the necessity of adverting
ThomasvUle to the traveling public.
We have the choice winter nport of
the Sooth; our climate is Incomparably
better than that of. Florida; our hotels
are unsurpassed; onrgwnusements are
sofficient for the purpose; no plsoe has
more picturesque drives than those
which surround Thomaaritlo.
But everybody does not know all this.
They can’t knoW it by Inspiration, and'
for the post four years we havejgiven
them few other means of finding it ont.
There are thAaand^ and flionsands of
wealthy people in the North who debate
only where and not how to go, to avoid
the bold. Because the Florida resorts
advertise more freely they are the ones
which receive the bulk of the tourist
travel
Now. ThomasvUle is not catering to
the rick element; it does a city but lit
tle good and injures its reputation with
well people. Bat onr hotels and board
ing houses, representing an investment
of thousands and thousands of dollare
moat be given attention. It is only jus
tice to ourselves and our people that we
make these investments continue to pay.
As is always the esse, the croaker
says “the tourist trade Is off.” It Is Im
possible to obtain the exact statistics,
bub ““ unbiased observer would say that
there is but Utile difference one way nr
the other between the number of north
ern people here now and the number
that were in ThomasvUle a year ago.
With aU this though, It is indeed an
optimist that thinks we oan hold onr
position among onr competitors for tour-
tit travel, withont advertising. With
the exception of a small booklet gotten
up last month by the Times-Enterprise,
ThomasvUle lias liad no Uterature for

Salt,pork is a famous old-
fashioned remedy for con
sumption. “Eat plenty of
pork,” was th? advice to the
consumptive 50 and 10c
years ago.
Salt pork is good if a man
can stomach it. The idea
behind it is that fat is the
food the consumptive needs
most.
Scott's Emulsion is themod-
ern method of feeding fat to
the consumptive. Pork is too
rough for sensitive stomachs.
Scott’s Emulsion is the most
refined of fats, especially
prepared for easy digestion.
Feeding him fat in this
way, which is often the only
way, is half the battle, but
Scott’s Emulsion does more
than that. There is some
thing about the combination
of cod liver oil and hypophos-
phites in Scott’s Emulsion
that puts new life into the
weak parts and has a special
iction on the diseased lungs.

The gospel by Matthew la specially
the gospel ef the kingdom, that king
dom of which the Old Testament has
to much to tell us, when a King eball
reign In righteousness and the work of
righteousness shall be peace, and the
effect of righteousness, quietness and'
assurance forever. The name of (be
King shall be Jehovab-Isldkenn, the
Lord onr Righteousness; He chair reign
and prosper and shall exeente Judg
ment and justice In the earth. Hit
throne shall be the throne of David at
Jerusalem, and He shall be King over
all the earth (Isa. xxxlt, 1,17; lx, 8, 7);
Jer. Ill, 17; xxlll. 5, 0; Zecb. xlv, 8).
any one would be truly thrilled and
lifted abqve present things and drenin
stances. let him become acquainted
with the King and the kingdom, with
whom and to which every redeemed
person Is a joint heir,' the kingdom
which shall Include all the kingdoms
of this' world._ with a Ring before
whom all kings shall fall down and
whom nil nations shall serve (Rev. xl.
10; Pt. Ixxll, 11).
Nothing more thrilling or Inspiring
was ever written, and the God of Truth
Himself wrote this (II Tim. IU, 18, ID.
In Matt, v-vii the King his given ns
the laws of the, kingdom, that kingdom
which Is not meat and drink, but right
eouaness and peace and Joy In the Holy
Ghost (Rom. xiv. IT). The opening
words iiaaert that poverty of aplrit la a
characteristic of those who belong to
IL Compare Isa. Ivll, 15; lxvl. 2. He
also laid that the righteousness neces
sary to enter it most exceed that of the
scribes and Pharisees (v. 20) and
must be such as meets the require
menu of the true spirit of the law.
not that of mere words,,but deeds
which ore righteous before God. who
seetb In secret. “Not every'one that
saitb, • • • bat be that doctb the will
of My Father which Is In heaven.” are
tjie opening words of our lessoo and
the beginning of the dose of Hla ad
dress.
That we maj more fully appreqtate
the word* we must remember who The,
speaker Is. Note His oft repeated “I
say unto yfiu,” corresponding with the
“Thus saitb the Lord” of the Old Tes
tament, for He Is the Lord of Hosta.
the God of Israel, the Creator, the only
Redeemer, the Judge of all mankind.
He la the one ofSvhom the Father said
at Hia baptism. “Thjs Is My Beloved
Son, in whom I am well pleased." and
at tho transfiguration He added, “Hear
ye Him” (Mott III. IT; xvll. 5). He
Himself said, “The Father Judgetb no
man. but bath committed all Judgment
unto the Son” (John v, 22). 1 seek to
emphasise tbla because there are so
many teachers and preacher! who. pro
fessing to be His friends, not only die-
honor the word which He eo honored,
but dishonor Him, not believing Hi*
words, and (bus dishonor the Father,
too. tot nil His words were just whnt
the Father'told Him to say (John xll.
48. 40).
But however much people may pro
fess to be His friends and to do work*
in Hia name, here Is Hit own testi
mony, that He will have to say to
them, "1 never know you; depart from
Me, yo that work iniquity” (verse 23)4
He bus told us elsewhere that He will
have to say to gome, “Depart from Me,
ye cursed, into everlasting lire, prepar
ed for the devil and his angels (Matt,
xxv, 41). After the solemn warning
that He will have to say to some, “Dc-
partl" He speaks agaln'ln grace that
•II who will may flee from the wrath
to come. All who hear the gospel either
obey or disobey; tbey either take refuge
In Christ, who Is the Truth, or. turning
from Him. they accept some of the
many prevailing delusions of the devil
and make lies their refuge.
The latter passage gives the further
truth that even those who are on the
sure foundation and are therefore
eternally safe have need to be careful
of that which they are building day by
day leat tbey may see their works
burned up und they themselves Saved
as by fire. Tho works must be "God
working in us” the works wbich He
hath before prepared for us (Eph. 11,
10; Pbtl. U, 13; Col. i. 20,. else all may
prove wood, hay and stubble.
Returning to the first part of our
letson and the matter of ’Doing the
will of God,” we muat remember that
our Lord was talking to disciples (chap
ter v, 1, 2), for He never talks to the
unsaved of "doing.” When the un
saved aaked Him one day, “Wbat shall
we do that we might work the works
of God?” HU reply was to the effect
that the only work for them was to
believe on Him whom God had sent
(John vl, 28, 20). On salvation by faith
apart from any works of ours see Rom.
111. 24; tv, 5; Eph. 11. 8, 9; Tit. Ill, 5;
then on the works which must nnd
will follow ace Eph. 1), 10; Tit. Ill, 8:
Jas. It. 14-28.
May we ever lUtcn to the words of
the Spirit In this infallible book, wheth
er they come to us through prophets,
apostles or ChrUt Himself, ns words
of authority, even the authority of
God. There are before us a glorious
morning and an awful night, but there
la no morning for those who despise
the word of God (Isa. xxl, 11. 12; vlU,
20, revised version). No one la a
child of God and a joint heir with
Christ who has not received ChrUt as 1
hU own Saviour, putting all his trust
as a sinner In the precious blood of the
atonement (John 1, 12; I John v, 12;
Lav. xvU, U; Heb. lx. 22); bnt, hating
thus bacon* a pert of Him and HU
MngJon, HU works fat ns most bo so
manifest that men ifity glorify Him In

Quaint, Queer and Curloua Salt Lake
City.
The late Col. John Cockerell in The
Cosmopolitan said “There are three uni*
que cities in America, and one of these
is Salt Lake City.” It is not only uni*
que in its temple, tabernacle and other
Mormon church institutions, but quaint
in appearance, with its wide streets, im
merse blocks and martial rows of shade
trees. It has, perhaps, more attractions
to the square yard than any city 'in the.
country, and its climate, while temper*
ate all the year rotfnd, is particularly
delightful in summer. The Great Suit
Lake, with its ipagniftcentSaltair resort,
where the water is "deader and denser"
than that in the Dead Sea in Palestine
is an attraction in itself that people
come miles to see. There are many
cool mountain and lake resorts near by*
also numerous very pretty canon and
park drives, and hot sulphur springs
