How to
Introduce a Man 1
to Christ
Ball Bearing
B, REV. HOWARD W. POPE
Superintendent of Men
Moody B\ble Institute. Chicsgo
In the conver
sion of Nathanael
we have a good
Illustration of the
principles In
volved in leading
a person to
Christ.
I. Every be
liever has a mes
sage to the world.
“Philip findeth
Nathaniel, and
saith unto him,
We have found
him of whom
Moses in the law
and the prophets
did write, Jesus of Nazareth, the son
of Joseph.” Philip did not talk about
himself but about Jesus. That is what
we should do. That Is what we were
called Into the kingdom for—to talk)
about the king. The world 1b pre
judiced against Jesus Christ. Sin has
blinded their vision and they do not
see him as he Is. They think that he
is unreasonable and exacting and they
sqe no beauty in him that they should
desire him. It is our business so to
reveal the beauty of the son of God
that they will feel their need of him.
When Ole Bull, the great musician,
visited this country he found an old
friend of his boyhood at Philadelphia,
John Erlcson tho great shipbuilder
They had a delightful interview, and
as he was leaving Ole Bull handed out
some tickets to a concert, and Invited
his friend to come and hear him.
Erlcson declined, and when pressed
for his reason, frankly confessed that
muBlc was torture to him, and begged
to be excused. Of course, nothing
more could be said, but Ole Bull made
up his mind i that he would compel his
friend to hear him in some way. A
few days later he appeared at Eric-
son’s office with his violin, and asked
Erlcson if he had any skillful me
chanics. He said he mot with an acpl-
Jent to Ms violin and needed a iitue
help. Ericson touched a button and
when a man appeared, he asked him
to send Mr, B— to the office. When
Mr. B— presented himself, Erlcson
told Ole Bull to explain to him what he
wanted done in n few minutes the
man returned with the repairs made.
The great musician took the violin,
drew hlB bow across it a few times to
see If It waa in tune, and then glided In
to one of those matchless melodies that
only Ole Bull could evoke from an
Instrument. Instantly every clerk In
tho office dropped his pen, Erlcson
threw down his paper and began to
listen, and all the men in the factory
gathered around the open door, and
there they stood spell-bound for twen
ty minutes until the music ceased.
When he laid down his bow Erlcson
cried out, “Go one, go on, my friend, I
never knew before that I had a
capacity for music.’’
The poor sinful world has the same
idea about Jesus that Ericson had
about music. They think they do not
need Jesus and that they would not
enjoy him. You and I know better,
and It Is our business so to interpret
the needs of their hearts, and po to
portray the beauty and sweetness of
Christ’s character, as to make them
hungry for him. Each believer has a
message to the world, and the better
ho knows Christ, the stronger his mes
sage will be.
IL Every believer In bearing his
message to the world is sure to meet
with controversial Inquiry. “Nathanael
PARENTS NOT ALL BLAMELESS
said unto him, can any good thing
come out of Nazareth?” There waB
only one word In Philip's testimony
that one could find fault with, and
that was the word Nazareth. Nathan
iel, good man as he was, could not
forbear the temptation to criticise, and
he seized the opportunity at once.
“Nazareth,” he said, “tho most disre
putable town In all dalilee; can any
good thing come out of Nazareth?’’
Human nature is bound to find fault
with God’s message. When Jesus
spoke to Nicodemus about the new
birth, he Inquired haughtily how a
man could be born when he was old
when he told the young lawyer that
he must love his neighbor, he, being
willing to justify himself, inquired,
“Who is my neighbor?” When Jesus
spoke to the Sadducees about the res
urrection, they brought up the old
story about a man with seven wives,
and wanted to know who would be
first in the kingdom.
It was just this way in the Master’s
day, and it will always be the same.
Humans nature is bound to excuse It
self even if it has to cast the blame
on others.
III. Every believer, In meeting the
objections of the world, has a suffi
cient answer. "Philip saith unto him,
come and see.” If you will study this
subject yct^ will see what a complete
answer this is to any possible objec
tion. Suppose that one is uncertain
about the authority of the scriptures,
let him (Ate and see—that is, come to
Jesus ana soe what he thinks about
the questicjllf and his opinion ought to
be final. He evidently regards the
Pentateuc^m the work of Moses, and
the various ;*hapters of Isaiah which
he quotes as the word- of God through
his servant, Isaiah, and Jonah as a
real character, who had an experi
ence such as is attributed to him by
the record ’bearing his name. If one
has doubts about the possibility of
forgiveness let him come and see, let
him kneel right down and confess his
sins and he can demonstrate the thing
in a very short time.
IV. As soon as the believer begins
to bear his message to tho world,
Jesus draws near. “Jesus saw
Nathaniel coming to him and said,
‘Behold an Israelite indeed, In whom
is no guile.J •
V. As soon as a sinner begins to
talk with Jesus, the light begins to
come. "Nathanael answered to him.
Rabbi, thou art the son of God.” By
all means get an Inquirer on his knees
as soon as possible. He can see many
things there which he cannot peo
standing. If he is not accustomed to
praying, aqd most people are not,
ask him tojltollow you sentence by sen
tence as you lead him In prayer. In
this way you -will be sure that he con
fesses his sins and invites Christ to
come into his heart and take posses;
slon of Ills life. When you rise from
your knees, question him and see if
he knows that he Is saved, and do not
leave him until he is assured of it,
not because he feels happy, but be
cause God's word assures him of his
salvation.
No Melancholy Religion.
Family prayers should be cheerful,
but not flippant and commonplace.
There should be a distinct reverential
atmosphere, but never gloom. Gloomi
ness is not even the sixteenth cousin
to religion. Why may not reverence
smile? It. does smile a hundred times,
where it holds Its breath and looks
longfaced once. The religion that
makes life such a tremendously, un-
smllably, overpoweringly Serious
thing, very long at a time verges on
the madhouse.
God gives to every man as much as
he gives the flowers—enough of earth
to grow in and enough of heaven to
grow into. He gives to every man as
much as he gives the bird—enough of
earth to feed upon and enough of
heaven to fly In. This much he has
pledged to his children everywhere.—
Mark Guy Pearse.

LITTLE ITEMS OF GEORGIA CITIES
Tlfton.—It Is probable that the next
general assembly will be asked to cre
ate a new judicial circuit in south
Georgia by taking the counties of Tur
ner and Worth from the Albany cir
cuit and the counties of Colquitt and
Tift from the southern circuit.
Cordele.—The merchants of Cordele
have arranged with the chamber of
commerce to offer round trip railroad
fare to all shoppers who live within
a radius of 100 miles of the city and
who trade with Cordele merchants to
the amount of $25 in cash. The ar
rangement begins on December 1 and
continues indefinitely.
Whitesburg.—A. S. Farmer, who
lives seven miles from town, had the
misfortune to be bitten by a maddog
at his home. Mr. Farmer was attack
ed by the dog and badly bitten on the
wrist. His son and a Mr. Bishop, who
came to his rescue, were scratched,
and otherwise hurt by the dog. All
three were carried to Atlanta for treat
ment.
Metter.—The citizens of this sec
tion feel that a great injustice has
been done them by the misleading
news items sent out of the flogging
given Mrs. M. J. Rollison and her son,
Jesse, recently. Mrs. Rallison and
her son were taken out and whipped
by several masked men. Seven of
the leading citizens have been arrest
ed on warrants sworn out by Mrs.
Rollison. No one in the section justi
fies the whipping.
Rome.—The Floyd county school
fair and the annual contests in can
ning for girls and in corn growing
for men and hoys closed here after a
three days’ session. First prize, $50,
in the men’s corn contests for the larg
est yield went to Laban L. Wood, with
125 1-2 bushels. The first prize for
yield on a new acre, $50, went to B.
A. Redmond, with 88.3 bushels. The
first prize for 5 acres went! to John
L. Sims, with 324 bushels, an average
of 64 bushels per acre.
Calhoun.—Rev. J. W. C. West has
been convicted and sentenced in the
Gordon county superior court on the
charge of running a blind tiger. Con
victed man is a Baptist preacher and
resides near Oakqftn about 12 miles
from here. He pleaded not guilty to
the charge, but the evidence was very
strongly against him and showed that
tliq liquor was concealed In his barn,
while the thirsty ones went to the
barn, took what they wanted and left
the money.
Mount Airy.—Among many other
claims to unique distinction, Mount
Airy is believed to possess the oldest
person in northeastern Georgia. Sam-
ley Jackson, colored, aged 115 years,
has made her home with her son, Jack
Nemons, and family for a number of
years, and is one of tho most active
members of the family. She walks
erect and with a sure step without the
aid of a walking cane or other assist
ance. She can see well without specta
cles and hears remurkably well.
Waycross.—As the result of an explo
sion of gas in a small outhouse near
his home east of Waycross, John Dean
and his daughter, Miss Mell Dean, are
in a local hospital in a serious condi
tion. Dean’s leg was crushed by the
explosion, and his daughter, who was
holding a lamp for him to investigate
the gas' plant, which was not work
ing as he wanted it, was seriously
burned about the face and body. Two
sons were nearby and the force of the
explosion knocked them to the ground
Inflicting painful bruises.
Athens.—Luke Floyd, a prominent
farmer, and Hall Daniels, bfcth of Mad
ison county, were fatally injured, their
physicians say beyond question, when
a big car in which they and five oth
ers were going from Athens to Dan-
lelsville struck ^ bridge over the Oco
nee and turned turtle, pinning the two
men^under it. The car caught fire and
was entirely consumed in the edge of
the water, just a few mirfutes after
the five slightly injured men dragged
the mangled bodies from beneath the
wreckage.
Atlanta.—The Entomologist Society
of America, which has a membership
of more than 10,000, will hold Its an
nual convention, December 30-31. II
is expected that several hundred dele
gates from various parts of the United
States and Canada will be in attend
ance. From December 31 to January
2 the association of Economic Entomol
ogists will hold its annual convention.
This society has a large membership
in the United States and abroad, and
many of the leading scientists of the
civilized world, it is stated, will come
to Atlanta to attend the convention.
Savannah.—Fire did considerable
damage to the plant of the Savannah
Pres* here. The origin of the fire is
not known, although it is supposed
that a lighted cigarette or match had
fallem among some waste the night
before and, after smouldering for sev
eral hours, broke out again. The busi
ness office was completely gutted, anti
there was considerable damage to the
press and the editorial and composing
runs. The plant was located at St.
JUian and Whitaker streets fn the
he.rt of the city. If the press cannot
be <ut in condition soon the Press
will issue temporarily from the Morn-

"You inherited quite a nice little
fortune," said the lawyer.
“Yes," replied the fortunate youth,
“I suppose you will pay a lot of
your debts now?"
“I thought of it, but I concluded to
make no change In my manner of liv
ing. I don’t want to be accused of
vulgar display.”-»-Stray Stories.
RINGWORM ITCHED TERRIBLY
1545 Aisquith St., Baltimore, Md.-—
“My children were afflicted with what
they called ringworm of the scalp
contracted from a house-cat they were
playing with. The ringworm formed
on their scalps about the size of a
silver dollar and their hair fell out,
leaving a round scale or crust on their
scalps. Their hair fell out In round
spots. There was terrible itching, and
they scratched till the blood came.
They were very fretful and could not
sleep at night, and they were very
cross.
“They were treated for several
months with no improvement whatso
ever. I was told they would never
have any hair and would always be
bald. Then I began using Cuticura
Soap in connection with Cuticura
Ointment and the first week I could
see the wonderful remedies were do
ing all they were claimed to do and in
six weeks’ time they were entirely
cured. They all have a beautiful
growth of hair.” (Signed) Mrs. Sadie
Pollock, Jan. 1, 1913.

Frederic H. Robinson, the New York
sociologist, who is organizing The
Guilty Man, sociological play, said the
other day:
“Some people think The Guilty Man
will be pornographic—like Aphrodite
But they are mistaken. And if they
come to see this play for pornographic
reasons they’ll be like the 'fat man in
the library.
“'Have ye got David Harum?’ this
fat man whispered hoarsely to an at
tendant.
“‘Yes, sir,’ was the reply. ‘We
have David Harum, sir. Would you
like to—’
"‘Hush!’ whispered the fat man,
rolling his eyes about the room.
'Hush! Not so loud.’"

Take eight ounces of sugar of lead,
eight ounces of powdered alum and
two and one-half gallons of lukewarm
water. Mix In a tub and let stand for
twenty-four hours. Stir thoroughly
when first mixed and occasionally for
the first hour, to dissolve the ingredi
ents. Take any garment of woolen or
cotton material, brush thoroughly and
let soak in this mixture for twenty- *
four hours. Take out, let drip until-
almost dry, hang in- the air until dry,

ment in tho slightest degree.
From a woman’s point of view, to
be compelled to suffer in silence takes

WIFE WON
Husband Finally Convinced.
Some people aro wise enough to try
new foods and beverages and then
generous enough to give others the
benefit of their experience. A wife
writes:
"No slave in chains, It seemed to
me, was mere helpless than I, a coffee
captive. Y’et there were Innumerable
winnings—waking from a troubled
sleep with a feeling of suffocation, at
times dizzy and out of breath, attacks
of palpitation of the heart that fright
ened me.
(Tea is Just as injurious as coffee
because it contains caffeine, the same
drug found in coffee.)
“At last my nervous system was so
disarranged that my physician ordered
‘no more coffee.’ I capitulated.
"Determined to give Postum a fair
trial, I prepared it according to direc
tions on the pkg., obtaining a dark
brown liquid with a rich snapjiy fla
vour similar to coffee. When cream
and sugar were added, It was not only
good but delicious.
"Noting its beneficial effects in me
the restVrf the family adopted it—all
except my husband, who would not ad
mit that coffee hurt him. Several
weeks elapsed during which I drank
Postum two or three times a day,
when, to my surprise, my husband
said: ‘I have decided to drink Postum.
Your improvement Is so ■ apparent—
you have such fine color—that I pro
pose to give credit where credit 1b
due.’ And now we are coffee-slaves no
longer.”t
