Heaven for Those Who Can Live A Pharisee who professed sion, but who was a secret enemy Christ, came to Father Hierom Bethlehem, and discoursed in terms of the glories of the state. The aged Christian knew “Could you be happy in the of that blessed state?” he “The light of discovery is in houra, and his word saith, hatred is covered by deceit his edness shall be shown before whole congregation;’ and again it written, ‘A bypoerit shall sot before him.’ ” A proud young Roman, of fortunes, sought the father’s ing. He would enjoy the portionot finally redeemed, but ;ould not ble himself to the faith of a •Know who it is against whom heart rebels,” said theChristian “Thou hast said in thy heart, I ascend into heaven,’ but so said cifer, son of the morning. In did hs and his angels fight God; and this is the record that left of them: * Neither was their found any more in heaven.’” A jester of Antioch, cloyed much mirth-making, but still weaned from the frivolities of world, had heard of “the better heritance,” and in a morbid wished himself there. “My said Hierom, “with your nature changed, what would you do in es? God’s prophet hath said, foolish shall not stand ! u thy and ‘The man that, wandereth out tbe way of understanding shall main in the congregation of dead.’” There came a wealthy whose soul would not miss any ject of desire, and who blindly that by some great gift he might a mansion in the skies. “Alas I cannot serve God and said the rage. “‘What hath the temple of God with So longs* your wealth is your god must save you. 'How hardly they that have riches enter into kingdom of heaven I’ ” A scoffing Greek ridiculed the trine of a sepa ration In eternity, argued that all the dead should on* assembly. “Is there not a ration even here?” said “and but two characters of men, sinners swallow up the bad almost come to pass before thefiood. By the gravitation of th*ir own evil or good each must go to his own place—and only the pure fa heart shall see Sod. The un¬ godly shall not stand in the judg¬ ment, nor stoners to the congregation of the righteous.’ ” A Jerusalem backslider said, “They who enter heaven are not the church alone, as Tbelieve. Many shall com# from the East and from the West,’ etc." “You speak whatyoar heart wishes,” said the sage; “because you have returned to the world, and tbs church is no longer pleasant think compa¬ ny. Bat how old, you, is Christ? When sin began was there not a Redeemer, and a sacrifice, and a church; even a people whom he be¬ gan to aave? And from all lands, it is true, he has gathered tbsm, but they all have one tongue in Zion. It has happened to you as to apostate Israel; “Their children spake half in the speech of Aebdod.’ You have turned back to idols, and even a son shall forfeit his inheritance who makes biuuseff an alien ; for if one so much as look back he is ‘unfit for the kingdom of heaven.’ ” A formalist set forth that he had observed all the rights of religion, and kept every sacred ordinance. Should this fidelity go for naught? Ask him who knows the heart,” re¬ plied the good father. “Many will stand before the Lord and say, ‘I have eaten and drunk in thy presence, and in thy name done wonderful works,’ and he shall answer, *1 never knew you.’ Heaven will not be heaven to him who finds there that God and his saints do not remember him.” A wornout voluptuary, whose bones were full of the sin of his youth, visited the aged Christiania his cell- thinking to borrow from his prayers some preparation for death. “How can corruption inherit incorrup tion?” said the servers old man, “‘What concord hath Christ with Beliai?’ ‘The carnal mind is enmity against God.’ ‘Who shall abid in the tabernacle of tbe Lord? Who shall stand in his holy place? He that hath clean hands and a pure heart.’ ‘There shall in no wise enter into it anything that defileth.' ’ An ambitious office-holder, who hfid spent a life in time-serving and seeking personal advancement, be¬ trayed the same selffishnesa in his desires and expectations of a happy hereafter. “Can such as you see and believe heavenly things?” exclaimed the monk o| Bethlehem. “And could such os you dwell contended in the world on high, where there is no human honor or glory ? ‘The natural man receiveth not the things of the spirit of God.’ 0 thou of ntow con¬ science and blind understanding! Why have you slept so long when the bridegroom called? You are a ’stranger to him, as far away as the east from the west, and 'thus saith the Lord God. No stranger uncir¬ cumcised to heart shall entei into my sanctuary.’ * A slanderer, driven by disease to serious thoughts, said: “Let me die the death of the righteous, and let my last end be like hra!” “Remem¬ ber,” answered thestern monk, “that they who eater into peace are those who make peace. ‘Who shall dwell in the Lord’s holly hill? He that back-biteth not with his tongue, nor taketh up a reproach against his neighbor.’” And so (says the legend) they all went away in anger or sorrow, but with arrows of truth in their hearts. And lo, when they came again, repent¬ ant, and cried, “What shall we do ?” Father Hierom gave them counsel as one man, for he saw that they were all alike. There was no Pharisee, or son at pride, or foolish jester, or wealth-worshipper, or scorner, back¬ slider, or formalist, or voluptuary, or self-seeker, or slanderer, any more. And he said to them, “You have be¬ gun to answer your own question, for you cqwejwth one repentance. You have but to agree in one faith, and yon shall be fellow citizens with the saints. Repent and believe, and your faces are towards heaven as to¬ wards horns, for surely every ona,will get to heaven who could live in heav¬ en and feel at home there. Is it not written in Jeremiah, ‘If they will dili¬ gently learn the ways of my people, they shall be built to the midst' of my people?’ Go. then, and all the days of yonr appointed time bear the yoke of the Lord Jeeus, and learn of him, until he shall say, ‘Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom; for I was needy and ye ministered unto ms.* And in the res¬ urrection ao^maac youshall sit down with Abraham and Jacob, and be satisfied.”—[Watchman.

There was a rumor on the streets of Griffin yesterday to the effect that the Griffin Ice Works had been pur¬ chased by the Central Ice Company, a corporation recently organized to control the fee business of the South. The scheme has been on foot for some time. A charter was obtained to Mobile last month, the company has been organized and the stock will be issued in a few days. The company already contends five manufactories in as many different cities and is reaching out for more. The Gage-Lyons Ice Company, of Mobile, the Avondale Ice Company of Birmingham, tbe Charleston (8. C.) Ice Manufacturing Company, the Brunswick Ice Company, of Bruns¬ wick, and the Gorrie Company, of Savannah, have already been absorb¬ ed. The Central Company has a cap¬ ital of $500,000, of which $275,000 has been paid in. The general purpose of the compa¬ ny, according to its declaration or incorporation, said the nature of the business intended to be done by it is the purchase of natural or artificial ice and beer, absolutely or on com¬ mission, and the purchase and own¬ ership or sale, ofthe capital stock and bonds of any see, brewry, or oth¬ er manufacturing or industrial com¬ pany, and the conduct of a cold or general storage ware house, wharfage and cartage business, and the like. Also to lend money to any manufac¬ turing or industrial company. The Savannah News also says: The officera of the company are: President—Louis P. Hart, Savan¬ nah. Vice President—Samuel J. White- side, Savannah. Secretary—A. S. Lyons, Mobile, Ala. Treas.—Samuel Lapham, Charles¬ ton, S. C. Directors—L. P. Hart, Savannah; S. J. Whiteside, Savannah; Samuel Lapham, Charleston; A. Sidney Ly¬ ons, Mobile; Gaylord B. Clark, Mo¬ bile. THE MOBILE COMBINE. The first move towards to combine was the consolidation of tbe two rival companies in Mobile into the Gage-Lyons company a few months ago. Mr. Gage has been largely in¬ terested in the ice business in the South, and is one of the principal stockholders in the new combine. Mr. Lyons is also a leading stock¬ holder, and is secretary of the com¬ pany. The plan of the Central com¬ pany is to control the stock of tbe local companies, which will be operat¬ ed through the charters under which they were organized. A BIO FIELD BEFORE IT. The Mobile, Savannah and Bruns¬ wick companies virtually have a mo¬ nopoly of the business in those cities. Charleston is having the benefit of a war between companies and gets cheaper ice. The Central Company is working to secure control of other territory than it now has, and of the ice business of the South. So far it has been working quietly and but little was known ot what it was do¬ ing. The company was chartered in Mobile a little more than a month ago and its principal place of busi¬ ness will be there. ARTIFICIAL ICE. The companies in the combine all handle artificial ice, in fact there comparatively very little natural ice handled in the South siuce the facture of artificial ire has begun. Nearly all of the ice South of mington, N. C., is artificial. shortage in the natural ice crop, which isput at about 20 per cint. of the average crop is over 5,000,000 tons, and this shortage tends to crease the product of artificial ice to lesson the amount of natural shipped to the South. WHAT MANAGER BREWER SAYS. The News and Sdn called on ager Brewer of the Griffin Ire by telephone, and the following versation ensued: Mr. Brewer, it is reported that Griffin Ice Works have been sold the Central Ire Company; is the port true?” j “No, sir.” “Your company has not entered, then into an ire trust ?” “No, sir.” “Do you know anything about Central lee Company?” “No. sir ” “Is Mr. Bregan in town?” “No, sir.” “Have you any information to part about the alleged ice combine?” “No, sir.” Tk* Hew Discovery. the many who know from from perseonal expert ence just how good a thing " ' it is.
