Well I was glad to read “Read er’s” reply to Pearl’s Bible quest ion; he will have to come again. He seems to think Cain lived a long time in the land of Nod be fore he knew his wife. He fur ther says that we understand Adam and Eve were the first on earth. Let us turn to Genisis, first chapter, 26th verse: "And God said, Let us make man in our image after our likeness and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the fowl of the air and over the cattle and over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creepeth on the earth.” 27th verse: “So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him, male and female created he them.” 28fh verse: “And God blessed them and God said unto them: “Be fruitful and multiply and replenish the earth. Subdue it and have dominion over the fish of U’e sea and over the fowl of the air and over everv living thing that worketh upon tin earth.” 31st verse: “And God saw everything that he had made and. behold, it was very good and the evening and the morning were the sixth day.” Second chapter Genesis, Ist verse: “Thus the heavens and the earth were finished and al, the host of them.” 2nd verse: “And on the sev enth day God ended his work which he had made and he rested from all his work which God created and made.” 6th verse: “But there went up a mist from the earth and water ed the whole face of the ground.” 7th verse: “And the Lord Goa formed man of the dust of the ground and breathed into his nos trils the breath of life a.id man became a living soul.” Bth verse: “And die Lord God planted a garden Eastward in Eden and there he put the man whom he had formed.” 21st verse: “And the Lord God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam and he slept and life took one of his ribs and closed up the flesh instead thereof.” 22nd verse: “And the rib which the Lord God had taken from man made the woman and brought her unto the man.” I think I have plainly shown diat Adam and Eve were not the first on earth and can see no rea son for Cain’s having to live to an old age to know his wife. So, Reader, you can search the Scriptures, for in them ye think ye have eternal life and they are tiiey which testify of me. lam glad to have Reader join our circle, as there is much to gain and nothing to lose. So come again. 1 hope Pearl has re turned home and will give us a nice letter this week. The weath er is still very warm and our sick are improving. A. V. M. Pine Orchard.

We correspondents will surely be glau when the election is over for two reasons: one is that we will know who got into office and the other is we think maybe there will be more space in the paper for our letters to be published, for we all enjoy reading each other’s letters and knowing what is going on in other settlements from which we live.
