February 22. Fastor Russell still preaches oral ly as well as by bis free "Pboto Drama of Crea tion," which Is pre senting the Gos pel to eye and ear dally to thousnnds In the great titles. Ills sermons are still reaching mil lions through the nubile press. His text for today Is: "When Thy Judg ments are abroad In the earth, the In habitants of the world will learn right eousness." (Isaiah 20:0.) lie said: Only those who come to an advanc ed knowledge of God's Word can real ize bow Divine Judgments are all good all blessed. Under the Influence of tbo fog of superstltl'tn, not understand ing aright the teachings of the Scrip tures, supposing that they teach ttor nul torment for the majority of our race, wo feared God, rather than loved Him. We dared not say that such n Judgment on God's part was wrong, malicious, devilish, yet wo wero un able to see It In any other light. Hence havo come the general perplexity of Christendom, the general alienation of heart, and many Intelligent minds driv en to Infidelity, to dislike to think about God and Ills supposedly terrible purposes respecting our race, to gen eral awo respecting the Illblo, and to fear of lis misunderstood teachings. . Word Shining at Never Before. But now in tint dawning of tbo New Dispensation, the Word of God Is shin ing as never before. One passage Illu minating another, our fear gives place to reverential lovo and filial awo. Wo begin to understand that the torment doctrines which wo received ure whol ly foreign to the Dlvlno character, which, on tho contrary, Is distinctly marked by Wisdom, Justice, Mercy ami Love toward nil. We llnd our selves now In agreement with tho Scriptural declaration that God's Judg ments are "righteous altogether," and we delight lu them. Instead of a Judgment of eternal tor ment us a penalty for sin, we tlud u Judgment, or sentence, of death. We agreo to the righteousness of that ver dict, or Judgment. God bnd a right to demand of His creature the obedience bo was nblo to render. He had n per fect right to destroy him In death when lie refused tbo blessing of life oternul on the terms of obedience. Bee lug this, how rejoiced wo aro to note the Divine Mercy In the Plan of Re demption for the sinner and bis off spring through the sacrifice of Christ! Ah a result we have good hope In His Judgments; for Ho who once Judged us worthy of death has with equal Justice redeemed us and granted us the opportunity of eternal life through tls? resurrection. It was another part of the Divine Judgment against our race that. In stiiul of the death penalty's coming In stantly upon Adam and Eve. It came gradually, that through the processes of gradual dying they might tho better learn tho Iokroii of "the exceeding sin fulness of Mln." to tho Intent that when granted the new trial secured by the merit of Christ's Bticrlllce, they wight profit by It the more. The same 1 ni ii 1 1 ! applies to nil of Adam's pos terity. "The whole creation groaneth iiml travalleth In pnlu together until How, waiting for the niuiilfestu tlnil of the suns of God." (Itomnns tt '..!. V.Vi They aro waiting for the cKtalillshmont of Christ's Millennial Kingdom, under which they will have a full opportunity of coming to s knowledge of the Truth. This Is God's provision for the world In general! What God did for Natural Israel during the Jewish Age. and what lie has been doing for Spiritual Israel since Pentecost, In tills Gospel Age, inn matters separate and apart from Ills general dealing with mail kind The natural and the Spiritual (Seed of Abraham are exceptions to the ruli Natural Israel under the Law Covenant and Spiritual Imi'iicI undei Hie Abruhunilc Covenant have lieon trniuleil special privileges and blessing not granted to the world In general.

Mankind 1 may see and have Intercourse with I thnnr l.iit MI i.f airx ti.i llfltm A I pant Intercourse with tho glorified Christ, Head and Body the King of Glory. "God Will Judge His People." So far as the world Is concerned, It has been under tho one general sen tence of Divine Justice, "Dying, thou shalt die." But Natural and Spirltunl Israel have been dealt with ns freed from the original sentence and on trial for life or death afresh under God's Judgmeuts, or disciplines. Thus It Is written, "Jehovah will Judge His peo ple." Not all under these Judgments have understood them; not all were in the condition of heart to receive their Instructions. "The secret of the Lord Is with them that fear IHm; and He will show them His Covenant" U'snlm 25:14). Thus, during the Jewish Age, Israel often lapsed Into more or less darkness and Idolatry, and failed to see their spe cial privileges and relationship to God under tlielr Covenant. But amongst them were tho few who with the eye of faith discerned the righteousness of God's dealing with them. Of these wero the Prophets, who rehearsed the Divine rewards and punishments, de claring that they were true and right eous altogether and merciful In the ex treme. Similarly during this Oospel Age Christendom as a whole has not been In tho condition to hear, to understand. to appreciate, tt.e Judgments of the Lord. But some have been "Israelites Indeed," who possessed the secret of the Lord and who were able to rejoice In . Ills Judgments Ills righteous deal ings. They have realized by faith God's love for them. "The Father Himself loveth you" (John 10:27). By faith they have appreciated the Apos tle's assurance that "all things work together for good to them that love God. to them who are called according to Ills purpose." Romans 8:28. God's Judgments In the World. We have seeu that God's Judgments In the past have beeu merely with those who shall constitute the Seed of Abraham (natural and Spiritual), through whom, uceordlng to the Prom ise, "nil the families of the earth shall he blessed" (Genesis 28:14). We now uoto the fact that our text does not re late to either of theso; for their Judg ments could be discerned only by tho eye of faith. Our text refers to tho world's Judgments during the Millen nial Age. Then God's Judgments will be abroad lu tho earth not confined merely to one nation or especially call ed class and will Include every mem ber of Adam's race. And while these are declared to, be the Lord's Judg ments, note the fact thnt they will be administered by The Christ of which our glorllled Redeemer will be the Head, and Ills membora, when glori fied, will bo the Dody-tho Church. The Judgments of the Lord abroad lu tho earth will not meuu havoc and dis may to mankind In general, but tho very reverse relief, nsslstnneo, to all who come Into line with nil tho right eous arrangements of that Kingdom, designed for their uplifting from Bin and death conditions. The Judgments of that Day of n thousand years will be severe even to destruction, against the wilfully, the deliberately rebellious, after they shall have been brought to n clear appreciation of right and wrong, good mid evil, and their results life and death. Mark the statement of the Prophet David when prophetically referring to the Millennial Ago. Ho points out that tho Judgments of that time will be a cause of gladness. Ho says: "Bay smnnpt the heathen that the Lord rulsnoth; The world olio shall be established that It shall not be movwl; He shall judge the people righteously. Let the heavens rejoice, and lut the earth be slat ; Let the sua roar, and the fulness there of. Let the field be Joyful, and all that le therein; Then shall nil the tree of the wood re joice rtrfore the Lord; for He cometh, for He cometh to Jmlg-o the earth; He ahnll Judiie the world with rltfhteoue noes, And the people with Ilia Truth." Psalm 90:10-13 A Millennial Judgment Day. Note tho words of St. Paul respect ing what God has in reservation for the world, llo says: God "bath ap pointed u Day the thousand year Day of Christ In which Ho will Judge tho world In righteousness by that Man whom llo hath ordained." Acts 17:31. In this work ordained for our Lord He Is to havo associates the elect Church, Ills members, of whom the Apostle writes, saying, "Know ye not that the saints shall Judge the world?" il Corinthians (l:Li And the Ancient Worthies enuuierali'd b.v St. Paul illo brews 11 :,",J i)i will also be Judges, earthly representatives of tho Heav enly Kingdom. As It Is written, "1 will restore thy Judges as tit tho first and thy counsellors as at tho begin-nlng."-lsaluh 1:20. Our all-wlso Creator, who has thus provided both the Heavenly and tho earthly Judges of the world lu the elis'tlou from Israel and the election of the Gospel Age, has thus demonstrat ed, to tho few who understand "tho sis-ret of the Lord," "the Mystery bid den from ages and dispensations" past. It Is evident that there will bo no dis appointment, no failure. In respect to (Jod'a great Oath bound Covenant made with Abraham-"!!) thy Seed shall nil file families of the earth be blessed." The basis jf the blessing Is the ro demptlve work of Christ, finished nt Calvary. The outworking of that bless ing will con e through the glorified Lord and th Church. Ills Body. The di-Kt work will be the establish ment of a righteous government In the hands of those already proveu abso lutely loyal to God and to Ills right eousness fnlthful even unto death. We may hsve full coiiltdeuc that In Sermon that Kingdom Justice, will be laid to the line und righteousness to the plummet, as God has promised. (Isa iah 28:17.) Not only so, but we may have full confidence thnt mercy will have a free baud there, to do all for mankind that would be reasonable and possible. The combination of a strong Government with merciful assistants Is assured by the fact that our Lord will be, not only the grent King, but also the great Priest, Prophet and Teacher. Even so, ulso, the Church shall be kings and priests. Their of fice, their service, will be a combina tion of ruling and healing, instructing and uplifting. Everything done will come under the bead of Judgment righteous dealing. Every good deed, yea, every good ef fort, will be rewarded. Tbo Judgment will be a blessing. It will mean un in crease of harmony with the Lord and of character development, and restl tutlonal physlcnl experiences. (Acts 8:19-21.) Instead of the ways of dark ness there will be the way of light Instead of the broad road leading to destruction;' with the mnsscs going down thereon to the tomb there will be the Highway of Holiness. Instead of stones of stumbling, we are assured thnt all the stumbling-stones shall be gathered out of the way. Instead of beastly violence, overmastering temp tations and besetmeuts, devouring mankind because of their Inability to resist the Adversary, tho Bible assures us that Satan will be bound and that tho wild beasts of vice and degeneracy will all be brought Into subjection. Thus nothing "shall hurt or destroy In oil God's holy Mountain Kingdom." "And an highway shall be there, and a way, and It shall bo called the Way of nollncs.s."-lHiilab 11:0; 35:8. The Messianic Psnlm seventy-second finds Its application In thnt glori ous Millennial Epoch. Thus we read: "Give the King Thy Judgments, O God, and Thy righteousness unto the King's Son. He shall Judge Thy people with righteousness and Thy poor with Judg ment Justice. Ho shnll Judge tho poor of the people. Ho shnll save the children of the needy and shall brenk in pieces the oppressor. Ho shall come down like rain upon the mown grass, as showers that water the earth. In His days shall the righteous flourish; and abundance of pence as long ns tho moon endureth." "The People Will Learn Righteous ness." As already shown, God's dealings In tho past have beeu with tho world only In the senso of executing a general sentenco for Adanilc sin n death sen tence with ull that It Involves of jnen tal, moral, and physical degeneracy dying. All of God's special Judgments have been with those who were Justi fied to special relationship through faith. If we were to Judge of the number who will be blessed during the Millennium by the numbers In the Lit tle Flock of Natural Israel nud the Little Flock of Spiritual Israel, saved under God's Judgments ln-udvanco of the Millennium, tho outcome of the world's Judgment would not appear fu vornblo. But these would not be fair criteria. Present conditions are permitted to test and to prove the faith ns well as the obedience of those who are under trial, or Judgment, and who have such a faith as permits them to grnsp the glorious features of the present call. Consequently, few there will bo who will find the great reward now offered. -Matthew 7:14. This Is as God designs It, because Ho Is selecting a special class. But tho ar rangements made for mankind In gen eral are that the darkness and Bin of the present time shall flee oway. The dawning of the Millennial Morning, with the rising of the Sun of Righteous ness with healing In His beams (The Christ In glory to enlighten the world), will mean ' that knowledge will be granted mankind facts, evidences, proofs. Tho world will not be required to "walk by faith and not by sight." as aro the Elect of the Gospel Age. In stead of tho EYE OK FAITH of the present time will be tho EYE OF UN DERSTANDING (knowledge), then. Instead of the secret of the Lord being kept from the world, all of ills gra cious purposes will then stand fully revealed. "The knowledge of tbo glory of God shall till tho whole earth as the waters cover tho great deep" (Halmk kult 2:14i. As a result, none shall need to sny unto bis nclghVir nud to bis brother. Know tho Lord, for nil shall know Illm, from the least to the greatest of them. Every kneo shnll bow and every tongue confess, to the glory of God iJeiviuiah 3I:!M; Romans 11:11: liilllpplans 2:10. Hi. When every good deed shall receive promptly mid manifestly lut reward, and every evil deed shall receive promptly Its punishment, the world will speedily learn to avoid the punishments and to win the rewards by obedience to the laws of the Kingdom. The Scope of Our Text, The Prophet In our context person ates The Christ. Jesus the Head mid the Church Ills Body, Note tho state ment In our context: "With my soul I have desired Thee lu tho night." The night of sin bus been upon the world for centuries. The Morning Is nt band, but nut yet fully come. During the night time the faithful of the Church aro represented ns walking In the light of God's Word. "Thy Wonl Is a lamp unto my feet, and a lantern unto my path" (Psalm 119: 10B. St Peter says: "Wo have a more sure word of prophecy, to which wo do well to lake heed as unto n light shilling In a dark place until the Day dawn and the Day Star arise. (2 Peter l:U).l lu this night time the F.lect are different from the majority of those around them. They desire God's righteousness and they pray: "Thy Kingdom come; Thy will be done on earth, even aa It Is done In Ilea Ten." LACK OF INTEREST IN ENTION MOVE District Sorely Beset With Trials last i Year Showing an Amazing Attitude This Year. POSTAL SAVING BRANCH IS LATEST IN CHICAGO STOEE Public Will Transact Business Same as in Postofflce and Trip to Main Office Unnecessary. UNITED MESS LEASED Willi!. Chicago, Feb. 23. Flood prevention efforts on an adequate basis, begun in Chicago by a Flood Proveuttion Com mittee of the "financially starved" National Drainage Congress, have brought reports of astounding apathy and inaction from communities which wero stricken only last year by floo-1 disaster. From all flood strickea cities and towns was reported the need for a vehement and decisive leadership in flood prevention activities. Notwith standing that tho disaster was nation al in its nature and that business every where felt tho monetary losses, the communities have failed to get away from local and state quibbles. A ro port from Columbus, O., stated: "I have met with no active coop eration in any source very much to my surprise, and not at all owing to any other influenee than that the local flood-plans here seem to absorb the en tiro interest of those who would nat urally be interested in your work, I furnished the governor with copies of the Clurk bill, but was given to under stand that he had given it only cursory examination on account of other press ing business. Later ho recommended to tho general assembly a bill local to Miami valley, which is drawn upon linos similar to tho national idea which you advance as I understand it which bill is now a law. I later gave copies of the bill and accompanying literature to tho city director of public works for use in a conference on the local city flood matters in Columbus. The literature was readily accepted, but I have since received no evidence that it awakened moro than a passing interest, tho whole attention being riveted on local plans which aro still largely in dispute." Postal Bank In Store. A postal savings bank branch is a novel feature adopted by a Chicago department store, a novelty even in theso days of auditorium and banquet halls as magnets to pull people past its aisles of bargains. The branch will bo located in the center of the storo on the main floor balcony. The public will transiict business tho samo as at th6 postofflce. Deposits ranging from $1 to $100 may be made or with drawn at any time. Money kept on deposit will accumulate interest at 2 per cent per annum. This idea of hav ing a branch of the postal savings bank in tho State street storo originated with employees-, who sought a convi cut place to deposit their savings. The establishment of a postal savings bank in large commercial establishments ap pears to a feature of the postal sav ings bank bill which even its origi nators did not consider at the time of its passage. School Gardening. Tho success of school gardening in Ontnrio Bud other parts of Canada will THROW AWAY YOUR EYEGLASSES A FREE PRESCRIPTION. You Can Have Fined and Use at Home. Do you wear glasses! Are you a vic tim of eyestrain or other eye-weakness! If bo, you will be glad to know that there Is real hope for you. Many whose oyes wero failing say they have had their oyes restored through the princi ple of this wonderful free prescription. One man says aftor trying it: "I was almost blind; could uot see to read at all. Now I can read everything with out any glasses and my eyos do not wa ter any moro. At night they would pain dreadfully; now they foel fine all the time. It was like a miracle to mo." A lady who used it says: "The atmos phere seemed hazy with or without glasses, but after using this prescription fur fifteen days, everything seoins clear. I can even read fine print without glasses. " It is believed that thousands who wear glasses can now discard thorn in a reasonable time ami multitude, more will bo able to strengthen taoir eyes so as to bo spared the trouble and expense of over getting glasses. Eye troubles of many descriptions may be wouderfully benefited by following ths simple rules. Here is the prescription: (lo to any active drug store and get a bottle of Optona, fill a two ounce bot tle with warm water, drop In on Op tima tablet, and allow to dissolve. With this liquid batho the eye two to four times daily, You should notico your eyes clear up perceptibly right frova the start and inflammation will quickly dis appear. It your eyes are bothering yon even a little take steps to save them now before it is too late. Maay hope lessly blind might have bea saved if tier had eared far their eyes la time. be urged from Chicago headquarters of the American Society for 'Thrift in behalf of the Strauss plan recently en dorsed by United States Commissioner of Education Claxton, who stated that it can add $100,000,000 a year to the incomes of homes of 2,000,000 school children. In Canada the purpose of the gardening is more that of educa tion than the promoting of thrift, ed ucation in rudiments of agriculture, but, it has served both purposes. This plan as a means of constructive thrift adopted by the American Society for Thrift was due to the president, Simon W. Strauss, a banker and head of S. W. Strauss & Co. A report of the princi pal of a "continuation school" at Winona, Out., W. B. Johnston, said: "Wo have gone beyond the experi mental stage and the school garden is as necessary a part of our equipment as are books or blackboards. We di vide the school grdening into two parts: The practical work, and the teaching of agriculture. With the first is associated the related studies of Mathematics, English, Biology; with the second is associated Geography and History, Chomistry, Physics, and Life and Man. Besides class plots each pupil is assigned at least three rows, one in each of three beds, with a choice of radishes, carrots, lettuce, turnips or beets. Each pupil makes a collection of weeds, weed seeds and insects, and prizes are given at tho Fall Fair for collections, and also for the best kept garden plots, accompanied by the best kept dairy. Eighty per cent of our school children did not know the com mon grains on a farm." Tho staets of Alabama and Wash ington and the citios of Chicago, New York, Buffalo, Philadelphia, Duluth, Memphis, Saginaw and many others have made a beginning which has proved the value of gardening work, although the value of the vegetables which can be grown in a garden was demonstrated best in Memphis. The Memphis report stated: "It is estimated that the two thou sand boys of grades five to eight should annually average at least ten dollars' worth of vegetables from thoir home gardens; and that tho more than two thousand girls of these grades, be cause of this instruction and stimula tioon in sewing, should increase the value of their sewing in the home an average of at least ten dollars a year. This would bring to our Memphis homes $40,000 annually, and more than a hundred thousand dollars' worth in habits of industry and self-reliance." Chicago's Mountain lu Danger. Alarm lest Chicago loso its one and only mountain thrills tho Geographical Society, for it is ono big specimen. This "mountain" only has an altitude of soventy-four feet and has been "scaled" by hundreds of scientists. It is in danger of slipping away some night when no one is looking. Tho Geographical Society, in a petition to the South Park commissioners Wednes day, asks that the park board take control of '"Stony Island so named because it neither stony nor an is land," und place tho mountain under the watchful eyes of a park police man, Tho mountain is between East Ninety-first and East Ninoty-fourth streets and Stony Island and Kingston avenues. It is about one and a quarter miles long and a half mile wide. But tho mountain was once a real one, with an altitude of about 750 feet and con tains rock folds that are of great value to the students of geology, and proves that at one timo the site of Chicago was covered by a glacier. Time and tin cans are causing the mountain to disappear, The swamp in which it is located is being used as dump. May Quit South Water Street. An exodus from South Water stroet, Chicago's famous produce rialto, oa which the crates of vegetables and poultry block the sidewalks and swarms of hucksters' wagons block the thor oughfares, will take place in a few months or a few yenrs, according to the success of a modern "produco cen ter" which la planned. Tho move will cost $20,000,000. Cramped and insani tary housing conditions, congested street trnff ic and poor transportation service long have made South Water street unsuitable as the distributing enter for the city 's produce, according to tho sponsors. "The buildings at tho new location will be absolutely modern and sani tary," a committee chairinnn said. "There will be big warehouses to which all of the railroads will havo ac cess, as well as cooling plants, water transportation and better street trnf- fie facilities. The project is backed by at least $'-O,000,0O0 and its success ful outcome virtually is assured." The committee which was appointed about four months ago to consider the advisability of moving the city's pro- luce center to a new location repre sents through its members four South Water street organizations, which are: Dressed Poultry Dealers' Association; Produce Trade and Credit Association; Butter aiul Kgg Hoard, and Live Poul try Dealers' Association. More than "00 companies and firms coming under these classifications are said to be in terested in the move. Single Tax Campaign. Some startling changes in Chicago real estate and iu Illinois farm land speculatively held may be the result of a centralized at'aek by the single tax advocates under the organized supervision of the Henry George lec ture association. This phalanx of the HNWf?iWspe)ea?,J . ,. . I V . - s CM SB-J "TtfH V- tK - -.' single tax army has decided to cam paign in the state of Illinois after analysis of the national situation, which seemed to promise Buccess in this state. John Z. White will be the principal campaigner, with arguments for the initiative and referendum, which are favored by Governor Dunne and his administration, as the opening wedge, and the exemption of build ings and personal property from taxa tion as the sequel to the plan which has, contrary to predictions, proved so successful in Vancouver. "It is now found as easy to keep a lecturer in the field in a single Btate as it was ten years ago to keep one iu the entire national field," said Presi dent F. IT. Monroe, of the Henry Georgo Association, speaking of the growth of single tax sentiment. "This association is composed of 3,500 con tributing members. Mr. White can carry the war-cry of the single taxers to meetings of boards of trade, com mercial clubs and even real estate as sociations.
