Ceiph Bagwell conducted the funeral. The bereaved have our sympathy Death i3 a solemn thought, yet we all must meet the monster. However if some of us knew how close it was to us we surely would lead different lives. There is too many folks that are taking the Bible in their own hands and pay ing its teachings no attention whatever,and holding themselves up as Christians- and trying to block the way, or hinder some humble servant of God from do ing what they feel their duty to do, Yet death is coming to them and then, oh, then, when they face the judgment! Such per sons should read the 4th chapter of 1 Corinthians, and especially the sth verse. However, the Lord says I will repay. The writ er or iy wants to say if the prin cipV some folks have and exer cise, is religian, or in other words, the grace of God, then the Bible is a failure and I have n’t got it, neither do I want it. Althou ,h I don’t agree with Bro Brown in everything, yet I heart ily ini .rse the statement he made when he said our greatest trouble was we had too many people in the Baptist church that needed to be converted. Surely, surely, we have folks who never followed uesus through regener ation. I say again, we surely have people who has never put en that new man the apostle speaks of. Surely they can’t understand spiritual things and are yet camel minded which is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be, and the apostle says for to be carnel minded is death. Hoping yet to see people wake up and come together in broth erly love, I will close. Plow Boy. CORINTH. After a long absence here I come again.

Pleasant Evening Reveries —A Column Dedi cated to Tired Mothers as They Join the Home Circle at Evening Tide. A great deal has been said and written about “Mother” but regardless o* how niuen can be said or how much can bd written the subject will never be exhausted. A mother’s love probably comes as near the quality of God’s love for us as anything we know here on earth. It is so purely unselfish and so far from anything earthly that many who have not experienced mother love find it dif ficult to appreciate. Perhaps they term it foolishness or un reasoning that a mother should stand by her child through thick and thin, and that she should always be able to see in him the same innocence and guilelessness of his childhood. It may be foolish from the world’s point of view, but it is a very heavenly thought though to know that there is someone in the world who believes in you to that extent. It makes yoa feel like bucking up and justifying that belief. And in case that “someone” has gone on to a better world, all the more reason for keeping the faith. How are we able to measure the good which a rind or an encouraging word may do? People are getting altogether too prone to look upon another’s sorrows or misfortune with a shrug of the shoulders and an its-none-ot-my-affairs atti tude. Of course, one should not force sympathy where it is not wanted, or be so profuse with it that the recipient feels overburdened, but rare indeed is the person who cannot re member times in his life when a little sympathy, a little un derstanding, would have saved hours and days and weeks ot heaitache. So do not be too sure that another’s trouble or misfortune is not your affair. Possible when the Book of Life is opened you may find a large balance on the debit side. It seems that the majority of people in this world arc either over confident or they lack confidence. For the over con fident nothing can be done for their very fault makes them heedless to anything you might say. They are so sure that they know much more about it than you for an over-confi dent man is always a conceited man. But for those who lack confidence the thing to do is to in duce them that they have just as much backbone as anyone else. Pe-haps they can’t feel it before it has become soft from not being used but it is there just the same. All it needs is a little exercise. To these people almost any task looks impossible. They feci quite inadequate for anything that comes their way. They never try to do anything because they feel sure they would fail. Consequently never having tried, they have never had an opportunity to know whether they would have failed or succeeded. There is an old saying whose value most people believe, has worn itself out. That is, “Every cloud has a silver lin ing.’’ The truth of the matter is when we are looking at the cloudy side we haven’t faith to believe in the silver linings that other clouds have had. Now that you have time just think of all the clouds that have sailed across your sky in the past. Haven’t they each and every one turned inside out and spilled a blessing on you ? Can’t you trace some good that has come to you from each one? The shadow cast by some clouds are very long and you may not be able to see the silver lining yet but sooner or later it is bound to show up. Let your faith from other tests prove to you thac this will be so. One time in our life we knew a man whose impatience was his undoing. He was a brilliant man but always impossible to woik with for he became unbearably impatient with any one who did not see through things or could not get things I acdomplished as quickly as himself. One he was in an accident and both limbs were broken. He was in bed many weeks and he certainly could see no sil | ver lining in the cloud that was hanging over him. No so his ! nurse and friends. After the first terrible fortnight his dispo sition began to improve and he began gradually to improve and he came out of that experience a changed man. He had learned the lesson of patience and he had learned that no cloud, regardless of how black it may appear, is without its silver lining. NO- 4 i
