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 Having withdrawn from all the oth er Interests, he has returned to Au gusta.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.

Louisville, K y., April 12. —ln the Hhubert Mmotile Theatre here this afternoon Pastor Russell presented Ida Photo-Drama of Creation. It la truly a wonderful presentation of the Itihle narrative Nothing of the kind has ever be fore been shown here. It la Inter- Si MaLafcscuj 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. USE HERALD WANT ADS. Rt Patti calls our attention to tbeee two seed*, and assure* ua that the Promise of God made to Abraham up , pertain* to both the Heavenly. Hplrlt I ual Reed, and the earthly, human-tin. 1 ture class. Hi* words are: "Therefore i It la o' faltli, that It might he by - grace; to the end that the Promise might ho sure to all the seed; not to i that only which la of the Law. but lo ■ that also which la of the faith of Abrn | ham."-Romans 4:IH, 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. USE HERALD WANT ADS. SUNDAY. APRIL 19. Rnt when Jesus arose from the dead, the blessing of the world was not yet due.

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.” USE HERALD WANT ADS.
