Hearse Service Anywhere 301 nil The Rev. Mr. Bass Also Declares It Improper (or a tiirl to Work j in an Office. j Forty young w omen of the First Baptist Church, Last St. Louis, i have refused to contribute to the salary of their new pastor, the Nev. l.ist'Ui D. Bass, because lie said ii is not proper for girls to work in ollices or public places where they are brought into con tact with men and thai the bride should go lo the- altar unkisscd. Mr. Llas.s also arouses the ire of the gil ls when he said it was im proper to wear dresses with short sleeves. His ideas regulating the life of girls, in which he declares against dancing, kissing, holding i hands, and wearing dresses with abbreviated necks, do not lend to smooth the ruffled temper of the young women. "I do not want to be under stood as being opposed to work ing girls," the clergyman said, i "What I say is that girls should : not work unless it is absolutely ! necessary to help support the fam ; ily. If they have to work they ! should be careful where they ac j cept employment. "A girl is not justified in work ing in any office or public place until she has gone the limit in try ' ing to get work in a household. It , is dangerous for a girl to go into a man's office and accept his money, even if she works for it. By constant association with a man or men in an office a girl loses a something that she can never put back. It is the ; constant suggestion she gets there ; that weakens her character and her ideas of men, and like a con stant dripping it wears away her guard until she finally" goes down under it." Mr. Bass contends that anything beyond a handshake is too close for association, and refers to a kiss ; as an electric explosion. "Beware of a kisser," he says; "he should be treated as a villian. Kisses are unpardonable under ! any circumstances before marriage." o THE BANK OF WELDON WKLDOX. x. e. Organized Under the Laws of the State of North Carolina, Ali it sl'-juTII. ivy.

The late Washington Duke, pio neer of the industry which later developed into the America To bacco Company, was once asked for a recipe for being successful in business. He replied : "Find out what the people want, and then give it them good and plenty." Andrew Carnegie at the Gcneses Society dinner in this city recently told the people that the way to get on in the world was to get to work a little earlier and swy a little later than the other fellow. There is ; much wisdom in this, although the unionists views differ somewhat from Mr. Carnegie's. Many a boy, as well as many a man, has missed the critical opportunity of his life by being altogether too careful to gel away five minutes before the end of his day's work, rather than to stay five minutes later.

Were there mur, in all sincerity and truth, Between the little Here and larger Yonder There is a realm (or so one day I read) Where faithful spirits, love enchanted, may wander Till some remembering soul from earth has fled; Then, reunited, they go fortlafar, From sphere to spere, where wondrous angels are. Not many spirits in that realm are waiting; Not many pause upon its shores to rest; For only love, intense and unabating, Can hold them from the longer, higher quest; And after grief has wept itself to sleep Few hearts on earth their vital memories keep. Shall I pass on across the mystic border? Will thy love link me to ttfat pallid land ? I would not seek the heavens of finer order Until thy bark hath left the coarser strand. How desolate such journeyings would be, Though straight to Him, if taken without thee ! Wert thou first called (dear God, how could I bear it !) I should enchain thee with my love, I know. Not brave enough am I to free thy spirit From all these tender lies, and bid thee go. Nor would a soul, unselfish as thine own, Forget so soon and speed to heaven alone. On earth we find no joy in ways diverging; How could we find it in the worlds unseen ? I know old memories in my bosom surging Would keep thee wailing in that Land Between, Until, together, side by side, we trod A path of stars in our great search for God. no judgment, there were no need of holiness, no need ot an Inter cessor, noticed of a Siviour, no need of a Sanctifier. A'en might live like devils and die like brutes. Therefore to the certainty of this event the Bible beats its testi mony in every age and in almost every book. Of this E loch, the seventh from Adam, pnphesied; this Abraham believed; this Job foresaw; this Moses taught; of this David sang; on this Solo non rea soned; to this Samuel and all the prophets after him referred, with more or less minuteness of detail. To crown it all, the L ird Jesus '. Himself, the future Jucge, made known all thai He thoug it good to i be revealed, opening out the sub ject more and more. Io His gos I pel teaching first,1 and nen in the : ; writings of Paul, Peter, James and ; Jude; till the last book o1' the Bible. John closes the Apocalypse with a description of thai Day which can only be surpassed by tin reality. Then let us pray that we may keep the remcnibram e of that great judgment steadily before us, and obtain grace to prepare for it. For "if the righteous scarcely be saved, where shall the ungodly and sinner appear ?" Some of these days we are go ing to meet up with a defeated can didate who is )ust as glad to see us : as he was before his defeat, and ' then we will know who our pre i ferred candidate for something t belter is.
