She appeared to he somewhat excit¬

he naturally asked the cause.
“The man In the top flat has fallen

“What of it?” he asked.
"He's been trying to get her to run
away and marry him.”
“Do you mean the man who prac¬

She said she did; and he made a dive

Faith by
Hearing
By REV. W. W. KETCHUM
Director of Practical Work Course,
Moody Bible Institute, Chicago
TKXT -So then faith eometh by hearing
! and hearing by the Word of God.—Ro
j mans 10:7.
Faith Is often spoken of as if it
were the acceptance as true of some¬
Tm MS&
-
ifeyp, m -
Haul, in the fifteenth of First Corinthi¬
ans, in speaking of the resurrection of
Christ, at once adduces evidence to
support the fact of his resurrection,
and on the ground of the evidence sub¬
mitted that Christ Is risen, he asks us
to believe in the resurrection.
It is a popular notion that faith is
a leap In the dark, but real faith in
the Lord Jesus Christ Is based upon
good, substantial evidence. In fact, In
order for one to believe in the Lord
Jesus Christ, there must be something
to believe concerning him; otherwise
it would not be possible to beliiwe in
him. Faith in Christ reaches him
through our faith in the facts concern¬
ing him. It is for that reason, that the
Gospel is spoken of as “the power of
God unto salvation to everyone that
helieveth.” Of course, we know that
Christ is the Savior, yet the Gospel is
rightly spoken of in this way, because
it is by believing the Gospel which
tells us that Christ saves atul how he
saves, that we in thus believing com¬
mit ourselves to him as our Savior.
Faith Based on Evidence.
Now I’nul knew that real faith is
based upon evidence, and that it is
not simply by urging people to believe
in Christ that faith is begotten, so we
read of his persuading the folks who
came to him concerning Jesus Christ
(Acts 28:23). This should be a les¬
son to us who, perhaps more frequent¬
ly than we ought, depend upon exhor¬
tation to lead people to faith in Christ
rather than upon evidence which calls
forth faith. People should be exhort¬
ed, hut they should also be persuaded.
When it speaks of Paul persuading
them concerning Jesus, it does not
mean that lie pitted his intellect and
will against theirs, and by sheer force
tried to make them believe in Jesus.
What he did, as we know, was to pre¬
sent evidence for tlielr faith to rest
upon. Ho did this by expounding to
them “out of the law of Moses and
out of the prophets.” That Is, he went
to the Old Testament Scriptures and
therefrom produced evidence concern¬
ing Christ’s person and work. As a
result we read, “some believed the
things which were spoken and some
believed not” (Acts 28:24). Thus it
always is when the evidence concern¬
ing Christ Is presented, for thougii the
evidence be sufficient, some will not
have Christ, to reign over them.
A Case in Point.
Quite recently. I dealt with one who
professes to be an infidel, and whether
or not lie really is one, he was most
blatant and blasphemous in his talk.
When I pressed him that honesty de¬
manded that he fairly weigh the evi¬
dence and put Christ to the test, he
was unwilling to do so and tried to
laugh the matter, as it were, out of
court. He called “the whole business,”
as he said, “a myth,” and yet I venture
to say that he never with a real desire
to know the truth had put himself in
tile way of evidence by which real
faith comes. I do not mean that he
had not read the Bible. I suppose he
had, but I presume tie read it under
the blighting criticism of a Thomas
Paine or a Robert Ingergoll. Who
would believe even his own good and
true mother if he always looked at her
through eyes of such bitter enemies as
they and their ilk are of the Scrip¬
tures? Or, who would ever trust him¬
self to his mother, if he always came
to her in the spirit of criticism to find
her faults and never to discover Tier
virtues? If a man desires faith, there
is a way to get it. It is a divine way
that never fails the one who honestly
thereby seeks the Lord. It is to put
oneself in the way of faith, and just as
surely as oue does, providing he is
willing and ready to believe, faith will
come to him as the gift of God.
My infidel friend whom I tried to
get honestly to put himself in the way
of faith would not do it, simply be¬
cause he did not want to believe.
When I pressed him further, I found
he had settled the matter in early
youth. He had turned Christ down in
a revival meeting, which he attended
as a boy. and now in maturer years he
is trying to comfort himself with the
false hope that Christ is a myth.
There is a time, we know not when;
A place, we know not where;
That seals the destiny of man.
For glory or despair.
If you desire to believe in Christ,
remember that faith cometi# by hear¬
ing, and hearing by the Word of God.

have no means of
knowing whether

Such, however, is
not the faith the
Bible demands of
us. It does not

port it. Take, for

Atlanta.—Thirty thousand -strong,
the children of Atlanta kissed goodbye
to their scooters, ukeieles, knitting and
other summer-time play things and
thronged back to the classroom for
another nine months of study.
Rome.—The handsome suburban
home on the Black's Bluff road one
half miles from the city limits for¬

Valdosta.—Contract for building a
handsome club house on the grounds
of the Country Club, four miles north
of the city, was let by the board of
governors to W. E. Booth of Valdosta.
Work will begin as soon as the mate¬
rial can be assembled.
Moultrie.—That Colquitt county far¬
mers are not disposed to sell their cot¬
ton for less than 20 cents a pound is
evidenced by the small number of
sales here, despite the fact that the
receipts at the local warehouses were
heavier than they have been during
the season.
Cartersville. The first bale of cot¬
ton brought to tliis market so far this
year, and one of the first bales to be
marketed in north Georgia, brought
35 cents a pound here. It was market¬
ed by H. M. Cabe, and raised on the
■plantation of Robert H. McGinnis. Its
class was strict middling.
Savannah. -Georgia's first war vic¬
tim in foreign service was a physi¬
cian of tliis place. Mrs. 0. S. Wood
received a telegram from Hie navy de¬
partment announcing the death of her
son, Dr. David G. Allen, September 5,
aboard the United States steamship
Panther.
Clarkesville.- The Ninth District
Agricultural and Mechanical school
opened its fall term here with a large
student body present, and prominent
citizens of this section delivering ad¬
dresses. The leading addresses were
by i)r. L. G. Hardman of Commerce
and Professor Neel of Cornelia.
Macon.—Charlie B. Brady and Miss
Gladys Cook Howard of Dublin and
Miss Russell Young of Macon were
burned to death when an automobile
in which they were riding plunged

county, and twelve miles from Ma¬
con. i
Hawkinsville.—In an all-night battle
between Syrians and Americans here,
two (persons were killed and three
others wounded, one of whom is be¬
lieved to be in a dying condition. One
Syrian who escaped has been located
on a farm two miles from this city.
A posse of forty men left here to cap¬
ture him. The Syrian is heavily
armed.
Columbus.—Columbus retains the
headquarters of the Dixie Overland
highway association. This was decid¬
ed at the meeting just held at Merid¬
ian, Miss., where great enthusiasm
over the Savannah Los Angeles high¬
way project developed. John S.
Bleecker of Columbus was re-elected
president, and Leland J. Henderson of
this city secretary and treasurer.
Perry.—On the J. E. Haslam planta¬
tion in the western portion of the
county, lightning struck a barbed wire,
fastened to a negro cabin. The bolt
fore through tlie weather boarding,

recently tiled asking the same privi¬
lege, will be heard on September 11.
Fort Oglethorpe.—-Orders were re¬
ceived at. Camp Warden McLean that
all candidates for the training camp
recently rejected be readmitted at
once and again examined. No expla¬
nation is made of the order, which |
was issued by the war department,
but the two hundred candidates re¬
jected will be notified to appear im¬
mediately. This order follows one re¬
ceived directing the commander at
the camp not to admit men examined
and accepted to replace those rejected.
Thomson.—The Jeffersonian Pub¬
lishing company has purchased The
Thomson Guard, a local paper, former¬
ly edited by Mrs. Alice Louise Lytle.
This paper will take the place of the
Wsekiy Jeffersonian, which was bar¬
red by the government.
Augusta.—The first casualty since
the arrival of the advance contingent
at Camp Hancock occurred when Pri¬
vate B. J. McGinnis, company S, Penn¬
sylvania Engineers, died at the Uni¬
versity hospital as the result of be¬
ing run over by a heavy army motor
truck. ,
At the cost of a small jar of ordi¬
nary cold cream one can prepare a full
quarter pint of the most wonderful
lemon skin softener and complexion
beautifier, by squeezing the juice of
two fresh lemons into a bottle contain¬
ing three ounces of orchard white. Care
should be taken to strain the juice
through n fine cloth so no lemon pulp
gets in, then this lotion will keep fresh
for months. Every woman knows that
lemon juice is used to bleach and re¬
move such blemishes as sallowness,
freckles and tan and is the ideal skin
softener, smoothener arql beautifier.
Just try it! Get three ounces of or¬
chard white at any pharmacy and two
lemons from the grocer and make up a
quarter pint of this sweetly fragrant
lemon lotion and massage it daily into
the face, neck, arms and hands. It
naturally should help to soften, fresh¬
en, bleach and bring out the roses and
beauty of any skin. It is wonderful to
smoothen rough, red hands. Adv.
Reproof Not Effective.
The new maid would not rise early
enough. Gentle reproof seemed vain
and finally the master and mistress
tried the inferential method of blame
and left the damsel asleep whilst
• bey prepared the breakfast for them¬
selves.
“We’ll shame her to it,” said the
master.
Not a word was said until nine
o’clock the same evening when the
girl tapped at the door of the sitting
room. *
“is there anything else I can do,
muni?” she respectfully inquired.
There was nothing and she turned to
go to bed, but at the door remembered
something.
“If you’re down before me in the
morning, mum,” she observed, “you’ll
find the eggs in the icebox in the pan¬
try.”
