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 several yean. ^ It is too late to work for this season’s business, but right now is the time to get ready for a campaign of advertising for next winter. We ought to begin work at ouco ouja ThomasvUle catalogue that wiU be wor thy of the town.

E-rone." is under! at the hands of 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.

(team. ibarnKM, ltd), br 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 ns (chapter V, Iff).

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 Fishing and hunting can be had in every 1 directi.on, The trip from Denver tot Sait Lake City and Ogden, via the Denv *.r Sc Rio Grande and the Rio Grande Western, is one of unsurpassed pleas* ure.
