fHE AUGUSTA HERALD. AUGUSTA, GA.
Big New Enterprise
For City of Augusta
Located on the Twelve Hun
dred Block
A Peculiar Building,
Great curiosity has been aroused hjr
a new building, while In process of
| erection, for several month* past, aa
to who would use It and what they
would uae It for.
The bolldlng la situated on tho
twelve hundred block of Broad street
on the south Side. It Is three storl-a
high, with a yellow press brick front
It Is probably the most unique build
ing In August* In fact, the architects
say that there la not another like It,
thr country ov«*r.
When It was completed. It was found
to huve been built Tor Messrs. Alger
non Morgan and J Harry Johnson,
who have formed * copartnership un
der the firm name of Morgan & John
soft, for the purpose of Introducing and
carrying out their own peculiar Ideas
In the furniture business.
Hturtling Innovations are their hont,
as startling as are new fashions for
ladles. They will be to new Ideas in
furniture, what the regional reserve
banks are to finance.
Nothing If Not Original.
Both gentlemen are experienced In
the business but have never had so
good an opportunity to formulate and
develop the novel Ideas ns applied to
harmony and contrast In furnishing
the home.
Mr. Morgan was for twelve years
bookkeeper and manager of the busi
ness of the late T. H Maxwell, ami la
ter on. he was head of the firm of
Morgan & Maxwell
For the past five years Mr. Morgan
was senior member of the firm of
Morgan A Whitaker. Havannali, Ga.
Having withdrawn from all the oth
er Interests, he has returned to Au
gusta. and determined to concentrate
all his efforts and devote himself to
building up the new business of Mor
gan A Johnson.
An attainment of his artistic Ideals
can best be accomplished In this way, !
he thlnka, and he has determined to I
make It his life work.
A Striking Innovation.
Mr. J. Harry Johnson has for fifteen i
years past been vice president and j
manager of the R. W. Burnham Fur- j
riiture Company, of which concern he
was a large stockholder.
Mr. Johnson, It will be remembered,
whs the man hy whose marvelous en
frgy and enthusiasm, with which he
threw himself into the campaign, the
present Merchants & Manufacturers’
Association was organised.
Some of Mr Johnson’s friends claim
that he secured every man In Augusta
as a member except the man on the
monument and that he could have
written him if he could have obtained
a ladder long enough to reach him
With two such earnest and energetic
men, cooperating together with a sin
gle purpose, they are bound to do good
team work, which must result In bet
ter taste in the selection and arrange
ment of the furniture of the home.
A judicious person will be able to
spend a modest sum to good advan
tage, thereby creating a much more
pleasing effect than could otherwise
be brought about, transforming a
humdrum sameness and commonplace
into brightness and variety and vastly
Improving the appearance of the whole
household.
Newlyweds Gain a Point.
The stock of Morgan A Johnson is
selected ulong the most artistic lines,
and is essentially modern in design.
One iH amazed at the reasonable prices
of articles, where the patterns and
styles are considered, but they insist
that artistic results do not depend
upon the mere outlay of money.
The purpose of Morgan & Johnson
Is to cover the field completely, with
especial regard for the needs of young
married Couples. This has been their
hobby, and their broad experience
warrents the assertion that the newly
weds will reap the benefit of dealing
with a house that really knows
and cares.
Oftentimes does It occur that young
married folks Just starting out, have
their limitations which they cannot
overstep and yet a great deal Is ex
pected of them. With no experience
In such matters and no older head to
guide them, mistakes are sure to fol
low.
Here Is where Morgan A Johnson
become all Important fn fact, they
will become well nigh indespensahle,
In the years to come as their reputa
tion grows as the young housekeepers
friend.
It Is Certainly Unique.
The building at 1208 Broad street ia
rertnlnly of unique design. It is the
result of very careful thought ams
study on the part of Mr. Morgan and
It was built according to his ideas of
[what if. specifically suited to the fur
niture business.
The building is of three stories; the
first floor salesroom having a celling
only nine and one half feet in height.
Tiie second floor salesroom has a
celling fourteen feet In the clear, and
the third floor or stock room, has a
celling ten feet in height. •
Under these three ceilings the fur
niture appears more like It does In tha
home and a customer gets a better
Idea of Us proportions.
A special feature of this very unique
building is that the display
windows of the second floor are so
near the shlewßlk that the goods
shown therein can he seen to the
minutest detail.
This, It is thought, will prove to bo
a great advantage. In that a person
standing on the aidewalk has a full
view of the contents of two sets of
show windows.
American Colors Prevail.
The windows are decorated with at
tractive signs, the American colors of
Red, White and Rltte being the chief
feature This patriotic demonstration
is further emphaslxed by decorations
Of stars
On the top windows of the building
are displayed the flags of all the na
! tlons composing the major part of the
population of Augusta—American.
Confederate, English German, Irish
and Greek
The two front window sign* hear
the legends: “Original Ideas" and ''Ar
tistic Ideals.'' And both members of
the firm declare that these mottoes
shall constitute tlielr slogan
Augusta can congratulate herself
upon having this thoroughly modern
store and rapidly growing as it is. maj
the wisdom of Messrs Morgan A
Johnson be amply Justified if creating
such a metropolitan estatllshment In
this city.

eating to the point of fascination. One
desires to see It over and 9ver again.
It Is now reported successful in more
than thirty of the liest theatres of the
principal cities, where crowds are the
rule. Over 38.000 attend in one day,
and the numbers are rapidly rising.
In tbe forenoon Pastor Russell deliv
ered a discourse on "Tbe Chiefest Res
urrection,” from the text, “There shall
be a resurrection of the ddnd, both of
the Just and the unjust.”—Acts 24:15.
The Pnstor remarked that Easter
Runday, throughout the civlllxed world,
stands as the reminder of tbe resurrec
tlon of Jesus; and yet there has perhaps
never been a time when the professed
followers of Jeaus have lielleved less
In the Resurrection of the Dead than
at present. This shows a great falling
away from the faith once delivered to
the saints. The Resurrection hope is
the greut hope which tbe Bible sets be
fore mankind.
The Pastor cited various Scriptures
to prove that death Is the penalty of
ain—the curse which came upon Adam
aud all his race liecause of Adam's dis
obedience to God In Eden. He showed
that God’s promise to roll away tbe
curse, and to give blessing instead, in
cludes every member of the human
family. He reasoned, and produced Bi
ble proofs In support, that the bless
ing of all the families of the earth,
therefore, will mean tbe resurrection
of the dead—the resurrection of Adam
•nd every member of his race.
The earliest Information on God's
part that He would do anything for
nun's recovery from the death sen
tence, was given when our first parents
were expelled from Eden. There God
vaguely declared that at some future
■time the Seed of the woman should
bruise the serpent’s head. This was |
merely a ray of hope, with no iutima
tion of how It would be accomplished.
God’s first definite statement of what
He purposed to do for Adam and his
race was made to Abraham two thou
sand years after sin had entered the
world. To Abraham God made knowu
His future good Intentions toward
Adam nnd all of his posterity. 4 He
•aid, “I purpose to bless all the fam
ilies of tbe earth. Walk before Me
■nd be thou faithful; and the blessing
•hall come to tbe human family
through thee nnd thy posterity.” Aft
er Abraham bad endured tests, God
confirmed the previous ussuruncee and
gnve His oath to prove the certainty
of the whole matter. The words were:
•'ln thee and In thy Seed shall all the
families of tbe earth be blessed.”
The Law Covenant and Shadow.
God knew, when He made the Prom
ise to Abraham, that his Spiritual Seed,
The Christ, would not appear even In
the flesh for more than two thousand
years. He knew nleo that It would be
nearly two thousand years after that
before tbe Spiritual Seed would be giv
en tbe necessary power and authority
to bind Satan and to release tbe slaves
of sin from the tomb nnd from the
(hackles of Ignorance, superstition and
weakness. But It was neither neces
sary nor ex|>edlent that nil this should
be told to Abraham. It was sufficient
that the friend of God should know of
a surety that a blessing was coming,
and that his seed would be Identified
with that work of blessing mankind.
God did. Indeed, give a typical lesson
respecting tbe fact that there woqld"
be two seeds of Abraham; one. Heaven
ly. aud the other, earthly. Without ex
plaining tbe matter to Abraham. God
stated It so that It would lie written
aforetime for the Information of the
Household of Faith of tills Gospel Age
He said. “Thy Seed almll lie as the
•tnrs of Heaven, and as the sand of
tlse seashore.” One of these "eed?
would be developed under the Law—by
being required to obey tbe Divine Law.
and thus being helped up toward per
fection. The other Seed, the Heaven
ly, would be by grace, not by Law
Good works would lie accounted to the
Henvenly Seed on the busts of fnitb.

God allowed Abrahnm’a posterity,
through Jacob, to go down to Egypt,
and there to become a nation *if bond
men. Later, He brought them to
Mouut ftlnnl, where Ho made a Law
Covenant with them. Moeev serving ns
Its Mediator. In that Covenant tied
promised that If the. Israelites would
keep Ills Law |ierfectly He would use
them ns Hie holy nntlon for the bless
Ing of all nations. But God knew that
Israel could nut keep that Covenant
Into which they entered.
God bad n double purpose In entering
Into that Covenant with Ismel. (1) it
served to show them that they were
sinner*, who eonld not keep the Law
and who could not lie blessed therh
■elves by anythlug that they could do;
and that hence they could not expect
to be used of God In the blessing of
other peoples. Additionally. It tnngbl
a similar lesson to all others who
would subsequently know about the
arrangement. That one great lesson
was that God’s Law I* perfect, and
obedience to It requires •rfectlon. and
that no man Is perfect; hence no man
Is able to keep the Law of God; t hence
•o man Is entitled to eternal life; for
God purpose* to give eternal life only
to the perfect.
f2i Auother object was that the Law
Covenant nnd everything appertaining
thereto were typical, nnd pointed for
ward to glorious antitypes, which
would bring In the real blessings.
The Antitypes Far Superior.
The Law Covenant typified the New
Law Covenant of the future, whleb
will be In operation for all the fnmlltes
of the earth during the thousand year*
of Christ’s reign. The Mediator of that
New Covenant will lie the antitype of
Moses— The Christ—Jesus the Head
and the Church His Body, enthroned
In power nnd great glory as tlie anti
typical Melrhlzedek—a Driest upon Ills
Throne. As the typical Covenant wav
Inaugurated hy the sacrifice of bull?
and goat*, so the antitvpical Covennnt
the New Law Covpnsnt, will be innug
orated upon the basis of “better sse
riflees" than those. As the typical
Covenant had Its Day of Atonement
for the sins of the people, so the an
tltypical Covenant will have a much
greater Atonement Day.
The offering of the “better sacrifices"
takes place during the early part of tile
antltyplcal Atonement Day, which lie
gan eighteen hundred years ago and Is
not yet completed. The great Sin-Of
ferlng was that of Jesus, finished at
Calvary; but His secondary offerings,
an our great High Priest bnre contln
ued ever since; and during this period
He has been offering up the members
of His Body, justified through His
precious sacrifice. These, the Apostle
declares, are holy nnd acceptable sac
riflees. because offered by their great
Redeemer and Advocate.
Boon, we believe, the antltyplcal
sacrifices will all be slain. Soon all
the members will be glorified with
their Head, their Lord Jesus, beyond
the veil. This Is the First Resurrec
tion. The change of Jesus to the
Heavenly condition at His resurrection
was the beginning of this Chief Resur
rectlon: and the glorious change of the
last member of the Body of Christ, the
Church, will be the consummation of
the Chief Resurrection. Only the bless
ed and holy will have part In it.
The High Priest Will Appear.
The typical high priest on the Day
of Atonement, after having offered the
sacrifices, put on his glorious garments,
nnd then appeared to bless the people.
The antitype will be when our great
High Priest. Jesus, shall have finished
offering the last member of His Body,
and when that last member shall have
passed beyond the veil. Then the en
tire MelchUedek Priest will put on His
official robes as King of glory, nnd be
manifested to the world as the great
antltyplcal Mediator, whose sacrifice
satisfies Divine Justice In behalf of all
Then, for a thousand years, this anti
typical Priest, Mediator. King, will be
engaged In blessing mankind—uplifting
Adam and all bis race from sin and
death; aud thus He will fulfil, as God’s
Representative, she promise, "God
■hall wipe away all tears.—Rev. 21:4.
Redemption Necessary First.
We now see from God's standpoint
that the Law Covenant was added be
cause of transgression—to show the
natural tendency of sin, the Impossi
bility of nny other way of righting the
matter than that which God foreor
dained; namely, through Jesus and His
glorious Messianic Kingdom.
'We seo also that whoever would be
the Seed of Abraham with power and
authority from God to bless mankind
must, first of all. accomplish a redemp
tion—must pay the penalty against
mankind, lu God’s Providence, only
one man was tried and sentenced to
death—Adam. Therefore when the
time came for redeeming mankind It
required only oue tnnit, The Man
Christ Jesus, to die fur Adam. As
Adam’s *!n had entailed Itself through
heredity upon all Ids children, so the
redemptive work of Christ’* sacrifice
would be en-exteiiilie. and signify recon
ciliation to all of Adam's race.
Thus It was impossible for anything
to be done In the way of blessing man
kind or granting a resurrection from
the dead until Christ had died for the
ain of Adam—the *ln of the world. On
the third day after Jesus’ crucifixion
God raised Him from the dead, fully
empowered to he the Deliverer of
Adam and hi* race.

SUNDAY. APRIL 19.
Rnt when Jesus arose from the dead,
the blessing of the world was not yet
due. God, who had foreordained that
Jesua should be the antltyplcal Seed of
Abraham, bnd foreordained alto that
Jesua should have a Church to be Ul*
Jolut-helr lu the Klugdom e ’ glory and
the work of bleeslng matiifnd. God
foreordained that all who T*eiild b* of
thl* Body of Christ moat show the
same spirit thni He Und-a spirit of
fuithfulnes*. loyalty, eelf-sacrlflce. God
predestinated that thl* Church d*«*
must be conformed to the Image of ills
Son—must i>o»*e*» similar character.
All through till* Gospel Age Clod bns
been developing the Church a* the
Body of the great antltyplcal Mediator
of the New Covennnt. These are de
veloped under a special Covenant, dif
ferent entirely from the New Cove
nant. made with the world.
Jesus did not become the great Medi
ator under the Law Covennnt; for the
Law Covenant offered lift; whereas
the Covennnt under which Jesus quali
fied called for death. The Church of
Christ I* developed under the same
Covenant under which the Master
qualified, which rends; “Gather My
saints together unto Me; those that
have made a covenant with Me by
sacrifice.”—Psalm 50:5.
The New Covennnt is to be sealed,
or made operative, through the blood
of Christ. The efficacious sacrifice was
that of Jesus Himself. The Church
ha* a share in the sacrifice of Christ as
a privilege; for in God’s order, only by
Buffering with Him can she reign with
Him; only by becoming dead with
Him to tile earthly life, earthly Inter
ests, can she become alive with Him
on the Henvenly. Spiritual plane.
The Chiefest Resurrection.
From what we have seen, we are
prepared for St. rani's declaration that
Jesus' faithful footstep followers only
can share with Him In His Resurrec
tion. (Pbilippiuns '3:10.i Only those
who are to reign with Him will re
ceive. In the resurrection, the Divine
nature, to which He was changed in
His resurrection. The Master's words
to these nre: “Blessed aud holy are all
they that have part In the Chiefest
Resurrection: upon such the Second
Death hntli no power; they shall be
priests of God nnd of Christ, and shall
reign with Him a thousand years."
Next to the Royal Priesthood of the
First Resurrection will lie the nutltyp
lcal I.evltes. Their resurrection will
be to spirit conditions, liecause they ex
perienced the liegetting of the Spirit.
Falling to get the highest prise—joint
helrshlp with the Savior—they will con
stitute the Great Company, “whoso
number no man knows.” to serve God
In His Temple. As the I.evltes of old
were the servants of the typical priest
hood. so these antltyplcal Levltes will
be the servants of the Royal Priesthood
in the great work of blessing and In
structing mnnkind.
“Better Resurrection” of Ancient
Worthies.
We come now to the resurrection of
the world in general, and find that of
those who will lie resurrected to hu
man [lerfeetion there Is ftlreudy select
ed a preferred class. Theirs will he
the chief resurrection ott the cart lily
plane. These are the holy ones of the
period preceding Hie coming of Jesus
and the offer of the High Calling of
joint-heirship with Him. Some of this
glorified class St. Paul mentions In He
brews 11: Enoch. Noah. Abraham.
Isaac, Jacob, all the Prophets and those
less notable. The last of these was
John the Baptist, as Jesus testified,
saying. “Among them that nre bom of
women there has not risen a greater
than John the Baptist; notwithstand
ing he that Is least-in the Kingdom of
Heaven Is greater than he.”
These Ancient Worthies, had they
lived during this Gospel Age. would
doubtless have been members of the
Royal Priesthood. As it is, however,
being approved of God. they were
promised "a better resurrection” than
others of humanity. St. Paul says of
them: "These all died in faith, not
having received the promises, • • •
God having provided some better thing
for us, that they without us should not
be made perfect." By this the Apostle
signifies that the Church must be per
fected on the Heavenly plane prior to
God’s fulfilment of His promises to the
AncleDt Worthies on the earthly plane.
-Hebrews 11:13. 40.
The better resurrection of the An
cient Worthies will be to human perfec
tion, to be used by Messiah as earthly
representatives of His Spiritual King
dom. Of this Jesus said to some: "Ye
shall see Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and
ail the Prophets in the Kingdom.”
They will be *een because they will be
human being*. Christ and the Church
will be unteen, because they will be
tpirtt being*. As Jesus said, "Yet a lit
tie while, and the world seeth Me no
more.” Even the Church sees not her
Lord until she is changed.
The World’* Resurrection.
As tenth constituted the Divine curse
upon Adam, which the whole world
Inherited by nnturnl laws, and as sick
ness. sorrow and pain are element* of
death, the rolling away of the curse
will mean the rolling away of sickness,
pain, sorrow nnd death, God has pro
vided a thousand years for this great
work, which will include nil the mem
bers of the liuutnn family, “every man
in his own order.” Those who have
fallen asleep must needs be awakened.
Then the world's resurrection program
will begin. It will include the pro
grtutslve step* of uplifting out of sin,
luiiorance. Imperfection, hack to God's
Image and likeness. Only the wilfully
wicked shall ultimately be destroyed
In ths Second Dentil.
Then every creature In nearen nnd
earth, everywhere, will b* lienrd ssy
lug, "Praise, glory, honor, dominion
nnd might, he unto film thnt sltteth
upon the Throne, nnd unto tb* Lnob
forever.”
