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 :

power is in harmony with divine law
that vibrates with the creative forces
ot the universe, and having nil abiding

a man a.quiies little power, whether
that , power be physical, mental, or

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. "It is moro blessed lo gi"
