Big Sacrifice Sale See Big Circulars THE LONGEST PROPHETIC PERIOD IN THE HIItLE This was the subject of the lecture nt the Orpheum last Sunday evening. Some of the main points of the lec ture were as follows: in thn Rtli chanter of the Rook of Daniel is recorded where the prophet wns shown a ram which had two Jinma. nnd his horns wo re high. The ram was pushinir Northward, South ward and Westward. While the prophet was watching the ram ho saw a ho goat come from the West and he ran into the ram in the fury of his power and broke his two horns and crushed him to the ground and stamp ed upon him. The ho goat had a not able horn between his eyes. The goat came with such speed that ho sacm cd not to touch the ground, but took everything before him. While Daniel was watching the goat, in tho height of his power, the notable horn was broken off and four other horns came up in its place. Out of one of these horns there grow another little horn that waxed exceedingly great. It was to cast down tho holy people, and mairnifv himself to tho Prince of Princes, and tread the sanctuary un der foot. Then Daniel heard one an gel ask another angel how long the sanctuary was to bo trodden under foot. Tho nnswer came: "Unto 2300 davs then the sanctuary shall bo cleansed." Then begins the interpretation of the vision. The Angel Gabriel wns commissioned to "make this man un derstand tho vision." Daniel was liv ing in the last days of tho Babylon ian Empire, and the angel said the ram represented tho Modes and Per sians, which overthrow Uabylon in G38 R. C, tho two horns representing the two divisions. Tho he goat was interpreted to be Grecia which over threw tho Modes and Persians in Ml li. C, and the notable horn between his eyes was the first king. We all know that tho first great conquering king of Grecia was Alexander tho Great, who conquered tho then known world in tho space of eight short years, and wept because there were not more nations to conquer. While nt tho zenith of his power Alexander suddenly died in n drunken debauch, und thus the notable horn wns broken ofL Within a fow years after Alex ander's death the kingdom was di vided into four divisions, between his four lending generals; thus the four horns took tho place of tho notable horn. The little horn which then came on tho stage of action was tho power that put to death so many of (iod s people and stood up against the Princo of Princes. It wns under Ro man rule thnt Herod had tho children of Bethlehem under two yenrs of ago put to death in an attempt to slay tho child Jesus; It wns tho Roman soldiers that arrested Christ; it was Roman soldiers that sent tho cruol spikes crushing through His hands and feet and milled Him to the cross. It was also lionmn soldiers that were set to watch tho tomb, and the tomb wns sealed with I toman nonl. Thun followed Hie long dark agon of pur ktuIIoii, which when Daniel saw In vision Iiu fainted, ami was unable to lu'ur fuillmr liilorprntntlon of Hid jirupliopy.

The angel said the period be gan when tho command went forth to restore and build Jerusalem after the Babylonian captivity, which history gives as 457 B. C. 483 years wereto reach to the Messiah, which brings us to A. D. 27, the baptism of Christ, when He was anointed the Messiah by the Holy Ghost alighting upon Him in tho form of adovo. Tho prophesy points out when Christ would Iks cru cified, and when the gospel would go to the gentiles. The great prophetic period of 2300 years ended in 1844, when tho cleansing of the sanctuary was to begin. This brings to view tho groat judgment work in Heaven as seen by Daniel in tho 7th chapter. This isthc most solemn scene recorded in the BibIo:whcn"The judgment was set, and tho hooks wore opened". That solemn work is now going on When it closes, probation for tho hu man family closes that work will soon close. Now is tho time to get right with God. Tomorrow is the Devil's time. T. G.

Tho first desire, therefore, Is for tho appointment of n commercial attache, whose duty It will be to report con stantly upon commercial conditions, Journey to various centers nnd make compilations which will bo of material benefit to those engaged or who wnsh to engnge In operations In this parf&f the world. The consuls nt many ports nlready contribute valuable aid In this direc tion through their commercial reports, but a consul Is restricted in his sphere. The commercial attache would have more of n roving commission, nnd his Information could be tlrst hand. Other nations have such officials constantly on the lookout for new avenues. As n mutter of fact, this proposal is not uew It was being Investigated by the previous administration and the probability Is that a commercial at tache would have bc-en at worr in China had there been no clinngu. That It Is n desirable one Is obvious.
