TH E TEST We have before us on our desk a little red covered book entitled ‘ 'Voice o f W arning” fy Parley P. Pratt and published by the L. D. S. church. Among other subjects discussed the au thor devotes an interesting chapter to “ The Kingdom of God.” He takes the position that God’s kingdom has already been set up on earth, with a king, duly commissioned officers, a code o f laws, subjects to obey the laws, and everything. A c cording to the writer this was done at Jerusalem and quotes the command o f Christ to his disciples to “ Go ya into all Aha world and preach tha Gospel to eyary creature. He that believeth and ia baptized ahatt ba aaved; but ba that believeth not ahall ba damued. And theaa aigna shall fol low them that believe: In My name ahall they aaat out davila; they ahull apeak with new tongaa*; they ahall taka up serpen*»; and I f they drink any deadly thing it ahall not hurt them; they ahall lay hands on the sick and they shall recover. “ Mark 16:16 13 able ingredients approved by Physi cians.

We remember the three Hebrew children who haJ faith ¿nough in Guo’s power to protect them to allow themselves to be cast into a fiery furnance. Have any of their prototypes of today sufficient faith to drink a dose of deadly poison or allow them selves to be bitten by a rattle* snake? Why not select a leader of the church and let him prove his doctrine, whether or not it be of God, by making the test? THE HOME MERCHANTS W EAPO NS Encrouchment of mail order houses upon the trade of local stores haVfc long been the sub ject o f concern to home mer chans and will continue to be, no doubt, indefinitely. Of late the bell ringer, who go3s from house to house taking orders for his wares, has become another formidable competitor in certain lines. I f the home merchant is to hold his own against these en- crouchments, he must fight, ano fight hard. Appeals to local pride and sentiment are produc tive of little in the way of prac tical results. Satisfactory goods, reasonable prices and advertising are the weapons he must use to hold his own. They are the same wea pons t hat his outside competi tors use against him. The three must gb hand in hand. Satisfactory goods wil not alone secure ths business without reasonable prices; both together will not draw the full measure of trade without adver tising. First have the goods and values— then tell the public about them through your local newspaper. As was said to the American Retailers’ Association recently by T. K Kelly of Minneapolis; " It has become the habit of the American people to do prac tically all their shopping through the newspapers, and the newi- pspen today have too great an economic force to need any recommendation.” — M a l h e u r Enterprise.

The claim that Commander Landsdowne o f the ill fated Shenandoah was forced to sail when he did against his will has been substantiated by dccumen »ary evidence submitted to the examining board. This in spite o f Secreta-y Wilbur’s statement that such was not the case What are we to infer from this fact? No one has yet sent in arswer to our questirn as where Elijah went when he left so hurriedly in that whirlwind A well known Biblical student ha3, however, agreed to lock into the matter and give us the result of his research at an early date. Until then we will just nave to remain in suspense.
