"MANY AEE CALLID MaUhw 22:1-14. MANY of us lave not la the past sufficiently discerned that none of the lessons of the Greet Teacher mere tfven la literal language that they were all ymb.llcal: as we read. "Without a rarable spake he not unto tbetn."-Matt 13:34. Id today's Study we hate another KlncJom. We mlcht Inoulre why the ing the Kingdom? la It not because the world? Are we not learning this Klncdom of God under the whole heavens bt-sau to prow d!:u within less than two centuries after the death of the lcouie the lirlde of Christ, to be associated with him In his glorious MiyMom for the overthrow of Sin and Satan aud Ivath, and for the ujllft!ag of man kind during a ivlira of a thousand year, a new f ilth and a new bo;e came la. contrary to the Scriptures. This unscriptural hope lustrtKte! (. Urmia:; that they should expect an earthly Kingdom the pope would retgn a representatives as representatives of the apostles ana Is promised. Theuceforth the work of the most holy faith," gave place to the Church and laboring for the world, under the unwarranted assumption that v Is the duty of the Church to convert thus been done It Is difficult to estimate. 1 or the sake or numoers sianaaros have been lowered aud worldllness baa been recognized, until today Christen dom Is In a sad plight aa respects true doctrines and high moral standards. As Messiah la to be the Great King of earth during the period of his Mediatorial reign, It Is the Father's good pleasure that be should have a Bride." And thia Gospel Age Is set apart for the finding and development of this Bride clasg of many members. The Kingdom Is the great prlzo which the Father la to bstow upon bis Son to be shared by the Chun-h. the Bride of Christ The parable of today's Study outline the call of this Bride class or Kingdom class from Jesus' day down to the completion and glorification of thla company. Nowhere Is Jesus represented as calling his own Bride. Thla la foreshown In Abraham, who typtSed the Father, and Isaac, who typified Jesus; and Abraham's servant, sent to call Rebecca to be the Bride of Isaac, typified the holy Spirit, whose work during this Gospel Age Is bringing to Christ tho Bride class 'the very elect." So this parable shows that the King sent forth the call to the Marriage. The Jewish people, the children of Abraham, according to the flesh, had been Invited to this high honor from tho time of the giving of the Law Covenant at Sinai. Century after century they waited fur the announcement to be made to them that the nuptial feast was ready. Finally, when Jesus came, the an nouncement weut to thorn, All things are now ready! Come to the feast Meantime, they had become overcharged with the can's of this life-business, politics and religious schemes of their own concocting. They manifested no interest In the announcement and even beat some of tho sonants, the Apostles and others, who sought to help them, and to draw their attention to the Great Feast, which was their special privilege. The Almighty was wroth and sent the Roman Armies and "destroyed those murderers and burned up their City," Jerusalem. In A. D. 70. Then the King eaid to his servants, The wedding must take place even though those who were bidden are not worthy. Go ye then-fore into the highways nnd ns many as ye Ilnd bring to the marriage feast. As the city represented the Jewish nation, so the highways represented the world In geiu-ral-the Gentiles-to whom the message of tho Kingdom was sent after fleshly Ir:iel bad firt enjoyed the offer aud but partially Improved It. Another statement vt the parable shows threo different classes: (1) The .1-wlsu nilers who roJiTtoil him. (2) Those called from among tho streets and lanes of their city nnd gathered to the spirit plauo by Jesus and tho Apostles. (3) Then the report was given, "Wo have done 08 thou hast commanded nnd yet there Is room." Then the message went forth to go everywhere among the Gentiles aud tirgo them to come In, until the house should be filled until the elect number for whom the feast was provided would bo found. Our Study etatr that the wedding was furnished with guests-good and bad. In other words, tho offer of a share with Christ In his Kingdom has attracted some naturally very fallen, as well as some better favored ly nature. But the ar rangements of tho Great King are such that the "wedding garment" covers all the blemishes of the most Imperfect as well as those of the least Imperfect. The latter part Of our Study shows a discrimination and Judgment ulti mately to take placo amongst those Invited to the wedding aud accepted. As none were permitted to enter In without n wedding garment-without an acknowledgment of the merit of Christ's sacrifice so none will be permitted to remain and participate In the wedding festival except those who maintain their standing of confidence la Christ. Any who talte off tho "wedding garment" Will bo sure to be expelled from the privileges enjoyed nnd will go out from the light and blessings afforded to this favored class, into the "outer darkness" of the world and of nominal Christianity. In which shortly there will be a great time of trouble, symbolically represented by the "weeping and gnashing of teeth." Are we not even now In the time of this Inspection of the guests? And are not all Cbrlstlun people who cast away their coufldence In the sacrifice ef Christ and who accept Evolutionary theories aud Ulgher Criticism taking off "the wedding garment." and will the not nil eventually find themselves in outer darkness, In confusion, In bewilderment? And will they not be sadly dis tressed In the great time of trouble which the Scriptures declare to be near? Danlel 12:1. THE PALL OP 1910. We are a favored people in many respects. This is a phenomenal fruit year. The harvest of small grain is above the average. The yield of corn and cotton in Union county bids fair to surpass that of 190'J. Other crops are not disappointing. The outlook as late as June was very gloomy, but pluck and perseverence under Providence are winning out again. We therefore enter this fall season with high hopes and renewed aspirations.

VENTRILOQUISM. It Is Not a Gift, but Simply a Matter ef Steady Practice. Ventriloquism U a curious f.lu sion. There are tuo erroneous pop ular notions re:irding it. Ono is that it is a special gift unattainable by ordinary mortals and the other that t!io ventriloquist produces the sounds he utters from his stomach. as the word appears to signify, and "throus" them this way and that as he pleases. As to t!:o f.rst point, any one can learn to ventriloquize who is willing to work at it hard and long enough, and regarding tho second point the fart i that no t:in can produce vo cal soun.'s otherwise than with hi laryn. It is (.imply a matter of cheating the oar. The porfrrcer needs or.'y a facility in speaking withiut moving his lips and a l:tt!e skill in misdirecting the attention of the spectators in order to suc cessfully mir'.ead. Ventriloquism was known to the Egyptian more than 3.000 years ago and is said to have been much used by priest3 of old to make the oracles" talk and for other miracu lous purposes. Tho simplest veritri loquial trick for the beginner to try is performed by going to the door of a room full of people and, open ing it slightly, thereupon conduct ing a conversation with an imagi nary person in the hallway. The deception can bo made effective if well carried out. One day upon entering a room in a big orlice building I found a red faced man conducting a violent quarrel through a speaking tube with somebody five floors higher. His own remarks were loud and fierce, and the replies were faintly audible. 1 was not a little surprised to fin J such a thing going on. and it was not until afterward that I learned that the red faced man was di!ig the whole conversation. Philadelphia ledger. 'Cot Hit Goat." Sitting nt a table in a Timadway cafe, a well knouu turfmnu a few nights n?o told how tho phrase "got your goat" originated. lie said it was borrowed from the race track stable, lie said that it had been t ho custom of many trainers to place a goat with a thoroughbred in train ing for a race. The diversion that the goat furnished tho horse was supposed to play a great part in balancing the animal's tempera ment. When tno tune for tho race was near nt hand great care was ex ercised to prevent the horse's friend from being stolen by hangers-on who figured thus to unnerve the racer. The loss of the goat has been known to worry a thoroughbred enough to make him lose a race, and so it came to be said that when a horse failed to perform up to ex pectations somebody had got his goat. New York Sun. Th Costur Languag. Gesture, or sign, language was beyond doubt the earliest form of tho communication of ideas. Long before there were such thinjrs as words men talked to each other by means of well understood signs. There are still tribes of men in Australia and tho islands of the southern seas, as well as in dark est Africa, who when they wish to exchange ideas at night are obliged to build a fire so as to see by its light the gestures that are their only means of mental intercom munication. To this day the sign language is found useful even among" highly advanced peoples. W hen you cannot make a man un derstand your words you can often times get along with him fairly well by "making motions." New York American. A Bride Who Has to Be Carried. Of the quaint marriage customs still surviving in old English and Scottish families one concerns the Dukes of Atholl and their heirs. The duko always carries his bride across tho threshold of Blair castle, it being in accord with an ancient tradition that it is unlucky for a bride to enter in the ordinary way. But this is only ono of the many quaint old feudal customs that are observed upon this estate, which the Duko of Atholl holds from the crown by a Btrange tenure. Upon fear of forfeiture the owner has to present his sovereign with a white rose whenever he or sho visits the castle. A Lett Patient. The old family physician being away on a mach needed vacation, his practice was intrusted to his son, a recent medical graduate. When the old man returned the youngster told him, among other things, that he had cured Miss Fer guson, an nged and wealthy spin ster, of her chronic indigestion. ''My boy," said the old doctor, 'I'm proud of you, but Mi83 Fergu son's indigestion is what put yon through college." Everybody's. JUROR KILLS HL1SELF. After Hearinr Piles and Piles of Evidence, tie Went Home and 5hot Himself Rather Than tio Back. Islington DitpaUh. Mr. John L Young of Silver Hill township on Thursday morning of last week shot himself in the breast with a shotgun, intlxting injuries which resulted in his death jester dav morning about !) o'clock. Mr. Young, who had been serving as a juror in the long-drawn out Lane case against the b juttern rail way. had cone home to spend the night when he took upon himself the task of bringing an end to ms own life. For four successive days, Mr. Young had sat and listened to evidence piled upon evidence in this case, which had a tendency to be- muddle and confuse bis mind, so be decided rather than go through with the wrangling of quibbling lawyers that was to come on the following day he would end it all by killing himself, lakiug a shotgun on Thursday morning he fired the en tire load through his breast, near his heart. Dr. Buchanan of Lexington, who attended Mr. Young, pronounc ed the wounds of a serious nature and entertained but little hope of his recovery. He lived, however, until yesterday morning about 9 o'clock. The burial will take place at Beck's church today. For eighteen or twenty years Mr. Young had been considered a man of weak mind, and his actions in many cases have proven this to be a fact. About ten years ago he was a juror in a case here and when all the evidence had been produced it so confused his mind that he fled to the woods and remained there for a long period of time. It just seemed to have a tendency to unbalance his al ready weak mind. And after this peculiar action it was quite a while before he ventured near Lexington. He was a prosperous farmer out in the Silver Hill section, and was about GO years old. A 5ure Enough Snake Story. Vilpboro An.on!an. A snake story that makes the flesh crawl came in from Polkton a few days ago. It is stated that a little boy arose one morning and found smutty streaks across his face and brow and on the bed clothing where he had slept. His little sister, who occupied the same room, noticed the smutty places on her hands and face and was puzzled to understand the matter. Later, as the bed was being made, a large black snake fell from a pillow to the floor. The snake had crawled on the roof of the house and down an old stove flue, falling from this to the bed where the children had slept. When the little folks learned that the big snake had crawled over them during the night, they set up a yell that made things lively for a little while. Death of a Citizen of Lower Union. Lanoitstrr Sew. Henry Washington Sistare died at his home just over the line in Union county, N. C, August 24th. He was in usual health until the evening before his death, when he had a para lytic stroke from which he never recovered consciousness. He was a farmer and a country merchant. He was a prominent and highly respect ed citizen and will be missed by a large circle of friends and acquaint ances. He was 53 years of age. He leaves a widow, three brothers and one sister. He was twice married. He leaves three sons and two daugh ters, all of whom are the children of his first wife. He was buried at Unity, services being conducted by liev. C. S. Young.
