Power, inure power, is the one thing sought fur by everybody, everywhere. The object of this article is to show that the majority of people, when t rusted with power of any importance, generiil l.v use it along destructive lines, If " Know ledge is power'' then poverty is the curse of the race us it is the re sult of ignorance. Love is the key to the kingdom of heaven, mid knowledge is the key tu better cuiiditiuas, if used constructively. Knowledge if culti vated with purity f purpose, ripens in to wisdom. Wisdom mid hive nperating together brings true success. Which is power over all kinds of adverse condi tions, The one great mistake ninde by most people, is in supposing thut weult'h menu success. Weullli certainly is pow er, but it is easy lo see that weullli can be used for bud purposes bunging wreck nml ruin, A mini in tin auto has power over distance, but if he uses that power wrongly he wrecks his machine nml causes loss of life. The great high way of lit',, is strewn with wrecks, the ; result of the wrong use of power, and this is sin, 'I lii.M. conditions nre appar ent to the most stupid i,,erver. If the powers of (he human mind were only used constructively ns they should be, "ud wealth, genius, ami other powers were used as they were ialeaded, to be used in the beginning, the world would I eel the benefit in a verv short time. Lower without p,ity is' a dangerous thing. Power cui,l,..l : remove iiioun ains." b ik I. power is in harmony with divine law that vibrates with the creative forces ot the universe, and having nil abiding 'I'1"1"?' 1 "mcs iininorlal. As soon ns a man a.quiies little power, whether that , power be physical, mental, or finmicml, I,,. i,tI,ditoy turns that power in the (lir.vti,,,, f the destruc tive for. e of nature and in some wnv oppress.., his fellow ,min, r ,1,k(, grat, y hi Mfish appetites and "'"'"fen for display and lxrv i ,,. form, which only tends to retard his on ward march toward better things. Some time, lie will wnlto up to tlio fuct that lie has used his talents to no purpose, nnd he is left stranded with a lot of carnal junk, the accumulation of years of mis-spent effort in the wrong direc tion. Tlio keys of wisdom (not knowledge) nnd spiritmil power is giv en only to the pure in heart. Only a few, just n few of our church people seem to understand the meaning of spiritual power, und one who docs understand it is regarded with sus picion, How can wc make the world belter when more than three-fourths of (he wealth and knowledge of the world is used lor destructive purposes. If the enormous sums of money and energy used in such Industcrles ns the ninnu factiitiiig nnd use of all kinds of tn bucco, intoxicants, file nrms, explosives used destructively, wero turicd into t he right chunnels (if hiiniiin effort. The world would soon be lifted to n plane fur above snvage warfare, which is only the legitimate harvest of wrong sowing. Life, lusting life Is the one thing sought for bv every creature. How can a man I'xpee't lifevvlieu he is continunlly sowing- the seeds of dentil, wasting all ' "' power entrusted to his keeping in the wrong direction. Can u person b true Christian and not live a clean life' The money spent for tobacco alone in our cities, if spent, for charity, vowM relieve the suffering and distress of nil the poor people in till the great cities, nnd till be lifted to a much higher plane of life.
