“ That which makes the decrees of
the Lamb ao implacable is that the

follower of Chriat, and to act in Hit
Name and if he does not perish, the

and the doors of Hades would pre­
vail against the Saviour.

“ The three animals defending the
Lamb will exterminate the las! army
of the Anti-christ, but they will be
forced to erect on the battlefield a
pyre as large as a city, for the bodies
o f the dead will change the aspect of
the countryside as there will be
mounds of slain.
“ The Anti-christ will lose hi«crown
and will die in solitude and madneia.
His empire will be divided into twen­
ty-two states, but none o f them will
any longer possess, fortresses, arm­
ies or vessels.

"The White Eagle, by the order of
St. Michael, will drive the Crescent

for the earth, and there will be no

living according to rule« of justice.

ing o f Humanity, which can only

Th« Tally Stick.
An old time way of proving one’s
right to the payment of money loan­
ed was by tally sticks. A plain stick
was used, and when a man loaned
a sum a stick was broken, and the
creditor and debtor each took a part.
When the time for payment came
the man who hat the stick, which
fitted exactly tc tho stick held by
the debtor, received the money. Two
sticks never break in exactly the
same shape, so there was never anv
dispute about who had a right to 1
the monev.
Th# W ord “ Aaphalt.”
Of deceitful ancestry is the word
“ asphalt."
Apparently it means
“ not slippery." The Greeks them­
selves were tempted to derive “ as-
phaltos” from “ a,” not, and “ sphal-
lo,” make to fall or slip. However,
the word is really ol unknown

War Prophecy
The following prophecy is said to
have been made three hundred years
ago by "Brother Johanne.” It is
quite interesting if nothing more.

In deciphering the allegory, it is
