Beeause.it is safer, and will pay three or four time* as much interest on the investment. Bank stock may become valueless, savings accounts often evaporate and real estate is liable to depreciate in value. But where jfuture deposits in the ground millions and millions of tons of GRAPHITE, in plain sight, for which there is an ever-increasing market ut very good prices, it is absolutely safe and extraordinarily profitable to become a partner, with large or small holdings, in such an enterprise. This graphite cannot be come valueless, will not evaporate and can never depreciate in value. Within 43 miles of Atlanta there is such a mine, at Emerson, Bartow county. A WHOLE MOUNTAIN OE GRAPHITE, 30 acres in extent, with millions of tons of the valuable mineral, visible to the naked eye. The deposit iB so enormous that it would take one hundred and fifty years of daily working to exhaust even half of this deposit. • ' This mine is right here in Georgia, where investors can see it for themselves. It is now the absolute property, without any encumbrances whatever, of some prominent Atlanta business men, who are preparing to install machinery this month, to mine, manufacture and market this GRAPHITE. WITHIN A MILE of this mine there is another graphite mine, with $100,000 capital, now manufacturing tons and tons of graphite fertilizer filler eVerv day, and earning handsome profits. THESE ATLANTA OWNERS ARE GOING TO TAKE SOME PARTNERS IN THEIR ENTERPRISE. This is the opportunity of a life time for conservative investors. ThereTs nothing problematical about this mine. It is there.—Intending investors can see it with their own eyes. A large party of Atlanta capitalists is there today. In this space will soon appear a fuller explanation of the chance to become a part owner in this Georgia mine, the property owned by Atlanta people, which S0LUTELY SAFE and CERTAIN to become ENORMOUSLY PROFITABLE. is ABS0L SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON not where they ran have the beat ad- agalnat, rlchea, and ao men pray, but vttnuiste* In moral training, but wharf how often, like one who row* a boat, do then In ji prospect of making the nioet they look one way and pull Ihe other.

No «loul»t but fhaf Abram waa satisfied with hln portion, and he pitched Ills tent a few mile* north of whnt afterwards became Jeru salem. . To him It was nacied ground. Ifwatt there hr erected hln second altat. near the spot that afterwards became the religious center f ills race, it rms Identified with hi* early association*, hln lir:«t revelations and hln fondest hopes. It ever must hate been i *» Idr.i what Bethel was to J»cob. The }ta»*rtd appealed to Abram, the money. Once In Hodom. norm tKey commingled and then married the Sod omites. Instead of lifting them up, they were reduced to their level loot's own wife fell In love with the fAHhlons *.nd follies or the wicked ?tty. and had to he dragged out by the hands .of the warning angel when hse left, and could not resist casting one longing glance behind. and her own body be came a monument of her olsobtdlence and folly. In our lesson Lot's choice has been selected an an example of covetous ness. Many other example* art^ found fn the Bible. Covetousness was the chum of the fall in Eden, the cuuse of the tftst fraetrlclde; that caused Arlian to hide the wedge of gold and the gar ment; that caused Oehfezl to accept the gifts of Nonman; that prompted Ana nias and his wife to lie and Judas to betray hts Lord. Our Lord uttered many warnings agulUM It. Ii Is the great curse of the world today. It Is the fountain head of nearly ever crime. It Is the cause of murders and graft and de falcation*. It causes men to engage In traffic that ruins character, that de thrones reason, that para lyses con science. that putrlihs the heart, that fills our Jails and alms houses, that breaks up the home, that damns the soul. The love of money, the thlnt for gold, the Inordinate desire for wealth, against which Hod’s word raises some of Its most awful warnings, presents Itself under a variety of aspect*. Pro- teus-llke. It assumes sometimes one form, sometimes another; but In wha*. ever form It appears, a base, soul-de stroying passion. It Is accursed of Qod. Insidious as It Is fatal. In such a country as ours, which owes Its greatness to the fertility of our soil and our commerce. w*hose ships laden with the products of our fields and factories, our mines and mills plough the wuter* of every sea. In our ran Houthladd. where the wealth In- they _ There la oiiTyune class nf people that, by the consensus of public opin ion. should not be rich—ministers of the gospel. And most of the churches are careful that they shall not be. They seem to think that piety and poverty are synonymous, at least the one In the concomitant of the other. Like the elder who greeted the new pastor by saying. "The Lord keep you humble, and we will keep you poor." But anme say the tide of fortune flows In on us. In the Increased value of real estate, In the fertility of the soli, the money comes un prayed for. If *>, If It flows In on you, then let It flow out from you In as full a stream. Be like yonder lake that refusing to ba surcharged with water, when thun ders are pealing and lightning* are flashing among the dark hills, and .1 thousand foaming torrents leaping down their sides, from a flood Into Ita bosom, ere long pours forth a corre sponding flood at Its exit, and giving to the earth as it gets from heaven, swells the .river, that rising on Its banks, winds Its bright and blessed way •inward to the sea. Whatever may be said of the manner In which Mr. Rockefeller has become the richest man In the w*orld. he la not building the walls of hla dam hlghei. hut lets his money flow out In million* for beneficent causes. There are bu». few' who would do It. for the Increase of riches only creates the desire for more. This all-consuming passion Is mani fested by parents In their desire for their daughter* to marry some rich young man, even though he be a drunk ard nr a libertine. Wealth weighs more than worth, ('ash Is more than charac ter. Whnt a man has. Is more than what he Is. This Is one reason why our papers today are filled with scan dals and our courts with suits for di vorce. It Is also manifested In the desire f parents to have their sons engage In apostle Into an apostate; It turned Judas Into a traitor. It can not be safely made Dor saved, except by those irhn receive and um It as a gift from God, The stem on which covetousness grows l| selfishness, and the root of selfishness Is sin. which can be elimi nated from llic human -heart only by the blood of Him who gave up Hla heavenly home and crown that Ha might give Himself for us. nnd In so doing has given the world the only perfect example of (inaalffshness. 25 r Off SUITS AND OVERCOATS, THIS SEASON’S NOVEL TIES,INCLUDING PLAIN COLORS AT ONE FOURTH OFF.
