It Us tons to the prophet. If It Is wise. It Investigates his Contentions. (At ways Investigate these prophets. It pats, because often a liar and a real ly Ilrat class prophet look remark ably alike). And If they find tho prophecies Veil founded, thoy oasl lu their Iota, upon a large or small scale, as the ease may be, with the prophet and his propheslted city.

" "To him that hath shall be given And to those who have the power of divining what tomorrow holds In store, and who have the ability to benefit by their foresight, shall come great reward. We are speaking of material things. Particularly, the axiom Is meant to coucern tho opportunities of the West; opportunities and tho results of grasping them Uy the dollar sign. l ', as caused Generally, prophecy has boon a business of extreme chance. A good prophet was Inherently something of & gambJer. He had to lie. For, however, craftily he might "qualify his prgphesiBg, It bohooted hltn oc casionally to como out In the open and make clearcut statements of ex actly what would como to pass. Very often tho results "were embarrassing to tho propel. All this apples especially to the old order of prophets. They were care less. They were. In fact, unscientific Most of their best prophecies were based upon such poor stuff as after dinner dreams, revelations and mira cles. Of course, they slipped up ever so often. . '"The modern prophet Is a vastly 'different being. We refer especially to the genua that does business In the Pacific Northwest. There Is nothing Slipshod about your modern Western prophet. He Is scientific all the way through. He does his prophesying up on a business basis. He scoffs at dreams, revelations nd miracles. In cidentally, bo makes money nt his profession. How dees ho go about It? In some such way as this: First, he looks over a new country. He Well, cities have grown In the Northwest during tho last half cen tury. They havo spruug up miracu lously. Fortunes have been made, However, most of them wcro mado more or less by accident; for tho most part, their owners couldn't help It. Tho scientific prophccy-huslucss was neglected until a few years ago. The point Is this: Today, In tho Pacific Northwest, scientific proph ets, who base their predictions upon hard facts, nro worth watching. What Is more, they are worth bank ing on. And some of the very l)est equip ped business prophets In the .world have put their O. K. on Ilend. Do 0u believe In prophets?
