Ill By Old Dotard. an " ‘-strait is the gate and narrow the way that lcadeth onto life; and few there be that find it” (Matt, vii, 13, 14), and it has ever been true that only a few, a very few can enter that “Strait Gate, Jesus says, and so spoke another great "V. Indian Teacher.nearly 3000 years earlier, who says in one of the Indian Saeied Scriptures (Bhaga.ed Gita): “Among thousands of men scarce one striveth for perfection; of the successful strivers scarce one knoweth me in essence” ; for the Initiates or Masters are few in each generation, for the saved are, as Proclus taught, “those who escape from the circle of generation, within which humanity is bound. ’’ The young man who came to Jesus ad¬ dressing him as “Good Master," asked him how he might gain eternal life, his first answer being the external precept, -**‘Keep the commandments,” to which the young man replied: “All these thin have I kept from iny youth up,” tij came the answer of the true Teacher: “If thou wilt be perfect, go and sell that ■ thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shall, have treasure in heaven; and come and follow me,” therefore to be a real Member of the Kingdom, poverty and obedience must be embraced. .Jesus the Christ was a very humble Individual—a carpenter who worked at his trade, if documents are to be trusted —who possessed no splendid equipage to the tune of thousands, or hundreds of thousands of dollars per annum, as do our present afchbishops, bishops, etc., clothed in purple and fine linen, osten¬ sibly advanced, or called to more lucrat¬ ive seats “by the Lord!”—although the Fournier had nowhere to lay his head— and preaching to wealthy and titled texts like these: “It is easier for a camel to'go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the Kingdom of Heaven.” It is true that Jcbus expressly said: “Ye cannot serve God and Mam¬ mon." but the modern clergy seem never¬ theless to have discovered a way to ree oncile both services, and have thus t. limy Imagine, upon the node hand, maybe seen actually can. in their simplicity, to the veryJhtter, the injunctions 'itkiO '^Bi Acn by their Founder more than ago, -pilose a#®,'and have been variously ex - plained some of the clergy say, “He didn’t mean it;" as if the Chris, the Divine Spirit, the very Truth would dissimulate or deceive them; blas¬ phemous ecclesiastical nonsense, al¬ though the practice of the Christians shows that they do not for one single moment believe that riches imperil their happiness after death. Now if the real meaning of the Kingdom of Heaven be taken, we liave the expression of a simple and direct fact, since that knowledge of God which is Eternal Life (John xvii, 3) cannot be : gained till everything earthly is surrend¬ ered, it cannot be learned until every¬ thing be sacrificed. The disciples were Ho provide neither gold nor silver in their parses (Matt. x. 9), they must forsake all (Luke xiv, 26, 23). Their wants were provided for by Mary, Joanna, Susanna, and many others who ministered unto them of their substance (Luke viii, 2, 3). The candidate must not only give up earthly wealth, but must give up his inner wealth as well; until lie is stripped naked he cannot pass the narrow gate¬ 11 hwebs I PIEWMTS Bin Safety First All other considerations are secondary with this Bank.

MOST CHILDREN’S DISEASES START WITH A COLD. Restleness—feverishness—an in¬ flamed throat and spasmodic cough —maybe whooping cough is start¬ ing in. Give Foley’s Honey and Tar promptly. It helps the child¬ ren so very much, and Mrs. Shipps, Raymondsville, Mo., says :“I got fine results from it and it is a great medicine for whooping cough.” Norton & Ash CLEVELAND, GEORGIA, MAY 1 , 1914 . “Kcfyoee—iTtornioq Star” By CAROLYNE CHISOLM Summer of 1913 Dedicated to Mr, Glen in Memory of A Pleasant Visit To NaGOOchee Valley. Tis early morn! A faint hush gently lies O’er all the valley,"and the peaceful skies Are in communion with the mountain’s erest. While slumb’ring men repose on nature’s hresvst. It is a time to dream—my fancy dwells Upon tllie days when through these vales and dells, Eehoee wandered—Wahoo’s queen, and she Was loved and honored by each Cherokee. The lovely valley! Clothed in peace it lay. Till with the sun one hazy, balmy day, Came Spaniards—roving, treasure-seeking hand— They brought.the serpent to this Eden land. Lorenzo, cunning, wily, bokl. imd sly, Looked on this daughter of Hie fields and sky, Eehoee, “Morning Star,” and swore his love In vain; her constancy he could not move. Within a cavern hid from light of day, The Indian treasures all well-hidden lay, Eehoee, with her children, often rolled Away the stones, for her charge was the gold. Lorenzo swore Eehoee, “Morning Star,” Should journey with him to; his home afar. To steal her and the gold hif plans were laid, He hid himself within the (muse wood’s shade. Ere long Eehoee and her children two, Came Lorenzo, riding from o’er his the hidingpj&e cliff 'n|ath thqp afcifes leapt— of blue, Eehoee! Wretched qu#|hfTShc sadly w ept. gt- w : * Pursueti|by raging K§dmen 1iigh%nd ? day, 4 Lorenzo finally waroroufhi to bay, Well had he played the sneaking dastard s part, A IhouLmd arrows-'heart! jafEM No peace knew she,. • Cfu^i-hooehee, ■ l^ ely tuadv fodtld a spot to rest, Her spotless soul had gone to join the blest. 1 think her spirit haunts these spots she knew, For sometimes, when the skies are azure blue, The waters, rippling, seem the very same As her sweet voice,—which laughed before he came.
