NATIONAL BANK THE - OF ASHLAND THE GOLDEN AGE AT HAND. 8crlptural Evidences That Are Atton ishing No One Can Afford to Be Without the Knowledge. We do our friends a valuable service when we call their attention to the valuable book entitled, "THE TIME IS AT HAND," in which are given many Scriptural evidences to prove where we are on the stream of time. "Men's hearts are failing them for fear" and many of the leading think ers are proposing remedies to better conditions. The Scriptures assnre us that man's extremity will be God's opportunity, and this book holds out an anchor to those who fear the wave of nnrest now spreading over the world. The honest heart confesses that It is at a loss for an explanation of tran spiring events. While we refer to this as the BRAIN AGE and the Age of ENLIGHTENMENT, neverthe less many realize that we are fast ap proaching a crisis which is wrapped in darkness owing to the present world wide social, religious and political un rest Send 35 cents at once for the book. Bible and Tract Society, 17 Hicks Street, Brooklyn, N. I. " H BlBLE5TUPXiOM. WOES, ANCIENT AND MODERN. Amos 6:1-8 June 22. "Beck good, and not ettl, that yd may live." Anion IT is safe to say that everybody is seeking good, and not evil. Everybody is seeking pleasure, and not misery happiness, and not woe. The difficulty is that our Judgments are more or less perverted. Some have greater wisdom than oth ers: but there is none perfect, "none righteous, no. not oue." All come short of the glorious standard which God has set The difficulty is that we were all born in sin, and are all misshapen. Not only our bodies are imperfect, but our brains are unbalanced some one way, some another. Consequently young men and maidens, looking forth from child hood upon the prob lems of life, have various conceptions of happiness, and make various reso lutions and endeav ors respecting the filling of their cup with blessings Ions life, riches, honor, etc. The teachers of our schools have a KNOWLEDGE "WISDOM LOVE School teachers' op portunity lor good influence, , most wonderful opportunity for influ encing the course of humanity., We rejoice that they are striving nobly for the fulfilment of gracious, benevo lent ideals, and are using their oppor tunities for blessing their pupils. Yet evidently many of them have but a slight appreciation of their privileges. Some, of course, like the remainder of the world, are selfish, and think of their work from the business stand pointso much work, so much pny. The first and chief responsibility 'for children rests upon their parents, the majority of whom, no doubt, to some extent recognize that responsibility In God's sight and man's. But they labor under the difficulties of their own igno rance. They know not the proper course to take for themselves. Their lives have been a succession of blun ders, and they presume that their chil dren must blunder similarly. Not see ing the principles underlying life's ex periences, they are unable to guide their children intelligently. Here teachers find their opportunity. But how little any one seems able to ac complish, and how discouraged philan thropists become! On the whole, however, a broad view of the past fifty years shows progress in many directions. Our cities are cleaner1 both physically and morally at least so far as outward appearances are concerned. No longer does vice flaunt itself in the face of society. The battle against intoxication and the so cial evil is making progress in that It hns made former conditions impossible. In some states the progress has been more than in others. New Issues Now New Temptations.

J lllllllfl TTTTTTTTtTTi From time to time the Tidings has received communications from read ers. Il is a helpful thing to exchange opinions on current subjects. Es pecially is this true of those subjects that affect the material well-being of the community (either of the city of Ashland or the county of Jack son), and this column is dedicated mainly to that end. However, there The Anderson Ditch. Talent, Ore., June 14, 1913. Editor Tidings: I have just read W. Taverner's letter in regard to the Anderson ditch, and as I have had in mind addressing the people of Ash land through your columns on the subject of the Ashland ditch I will now do so. Ashland's one dire need is a pro ducing farming country surrounding it, and the one dire need of the coun try surrounding Ashland to make it a great producer is water. On the 9th of this month I crossed Ashland creek at the ice plant crossing and in my judgment there was more than 2,000 inches of water flowing to self-gratification. They considered that they had won in the battle of life, and would now enjoy the fruits of their diligence. The Lord through the Pro phet upbraided them, declaring He was not pleased with such a course. He told them that woes would result The mission of Amos was to call at tention to the fact that aggressive self ishness bad accumulated great riches, that the wealthy were living in luxury, and that these conditions fostered pride and moral laxity amongst the wealthy; while the poor were being filled with avarice, losing respect for God, reli gion, truth and mercy. Society was on the edge of a volcano, and God de clared that an eruption was at hand. Present Day Conditions Correspond. Our lesson is not inappropriate to our times. Notwithstanding the prog ress made, notwithstanding the philan thropic sentiments of many, inside and .mtslde Christian denominations, nev ertheless there Is danger. First of aH, let us consid er the danger of the rich. The wealth of today reaches to a cer tain extent to the very humblest, and scatters bless ings. But the bulk of the w o r 1 d's wealth is in the hands of the few. The inordinutely rich are in creat mi t? s B 9 ' People had tettled down to ease and self gratification. danger of injuring themselves. Some cannot devise means by which to con sume even their incomes. Luxuries of every kind are tasted in hope of find ing happiness. Not succeeding, they still pursue it. Wealth brings increas ed opportunity for sin In its various forms, including debauching. The influence upon the poor is nota ble. The latter, seeking pleasure, Imagine erroneously that the rich and indolent are finding it, while they themselves seek in vain. Thus the poor, surrounded by the wonderful blessings of our day. are often miser able, because their minds are discon tented. They desire happiness, and believe that they can obtain it only through wealth. The result is that their hearts are filling with anger, mal ice, and jealousy of the rich. Both rich and poor need to learn the great lesson that pleasure lies, not in self-indulgence, but in self-sacrifice in service of others. God's Message to both classes is. "Seek righteousness, Beek meekness." Zephaniah 2:3. . i Moon Rivers, The so called craters, ring mountains and empty sea beds of the moon are not the only Interesting phenomena which our satellite presents to the view. There are on many parts of the moon's surface long, narrow lines oull ed "rills," evidently much below the general level of the ground, "some of them comparable In breadth and depth to the great canyons of our western country. Certain astronomers have been disposed to regard these rills as cracks and rents in the crust of the moon', but others have adopted the sug gestion, made long ago. that they are river channels. It may be remarked of these ancient lunar river channels. If such they renlly sre, that their wider ends always terminate In pear shaped hollows like little craters, and this end is nearly always higher than the other, so that if the craters were once lakes their waters must have flowed out Into the rivers insteud of the waters of the rivers emptying into the lakes.

Water ample to irrigate for the first and second crop all the alfalfa between Ashland and Medford wastes that if applied to the land under the Anderson ditch as now constructed would Increase tenfold the present production. Let the city council put in a cement pipe at the cost of a few cents per foot through the city l'mits and then con struct a scenic drive on the ditch right of way, making a double use of it, and then sell the water at about $1 per acre per season, the city reserving the right to cut off the water whenever needed by the city. Do this and' you will find it your best paying investment. WELBORN BEESON. Take Plenty of Time to Eat. There is a saying that "rapid eat ing is slow suicide." If you have formed the habit of eating too rap idly you are most likely suffering from indigestion or constipation, which will result eventually In seri ous illness unless corrected. Diges tion begins in the mouth. Food should be thoroughly masticated and Insalivated. Then when you have a fullness of the stomach or feel dull and stupid after eating, take one of Chamberlain's Tablets. Many severe causes of stomach trouble and con stipation have been cured by the use of these tablets. They are easy to take and most agreeable in effect. Sold by all dealers.
