all of these only adds to your condemna?
tion. For inasmuch as you are trying to
; he h teacher or a leader of others in the
mysteries pertaiuiug to tie church of the
living God, you ought to be tilled with
and taught by the Holy Spirit alone.
; All the book knowledge oi all the college
taught theologies put together cau never
lead a soul into a vital union with our
> "Living Head," or into the mysteries of
I our joint heirship with the Christ of
God. These thiugs may serve to lead us
around on the outside. They may give
us stray inklings of the iuterior, but only
the Holy Spirit cau lead a soul iuto the
Holy of Holies, for to Him alone is the
duty assigned.
Have vou received Him: Oh, then re?
ceive Him to-day If you have not. Noth?
ing can take His place; no experience,
no man-mado appointment, however hon?
orable, whether in tho church to which
you belong or out, of it. Do noi be de?
ceived by theso things. They uro all right
in themselves and good enough in their
places, but they must not take the place
of tho Holy Ghost. They may boa tosult
after receiving Hun, but they can never
bo a substitute for receiving Him, nor are
yon toconclnde from these things I hat you
have received Him. 'Externals cannot
decide this matter. The on'y way to
know you have received the Holy Ghost
is simply to receive Him to do His oflice
work in you. Sanctifloatlon is not cov?
ered nor is it included in justification.
Itisan additional and higher type of faith
and is the beginning of u deeper work of
grace in you. You know thtt.t you hsve
definitely taken 'Jesus as your justifica?
tion?no difli'-nlly about answering?that,
whs iv definite stepof faith in Cod's Word,
wasn't it? Well now did you over so take
Hint as your snnotification? It is your
privilege, nay it. is demanded of you, for
without holiness no man .shall see the
Lord.
You cannot sanct ify yourself nor can
you grow, into it. It, like justification,
is yours if you will meet the conditions
and accept it. And r'ght in here comes
the need for the Holy bpirit. It is an
absolute necessity that you receive Him,
for to Him is committed the work of
making you Holy, if you ever are. And
you tlo not have the Holy Ghost in you
in this sense until '"y faith yon receive
Him to do this work iu yon. Have you
ever so received Him? Did you ever
yield yourself once aud for all and unre?
servedly to the Holy Spirit to bo'" filled
with Himself? To ba used of Him for
God's glory alone? Jesus received
Him, was filled with Him, was used of
Him to glorify tho Father. Jesus could
not got along wilhout tho Holy tJhost ?
n definite incoming and indwelling?be?
fore He tutored up.in His ministry. And
the Holy Spirit never left Him till He
was seated at the right hand of the
Father; then He sent, the Comfortc to
us. Have you received Him:' Oh, do
you wonder that there are so many starv?
ed Christians in our churches to tlay?
So few in our pulpits know auytbing
about, a Pentecost. So tew are there
"baptized with the Holy Ghost." So
few, oh, so few, hold* more than man's
commission to preach the Gospel.
Is it nnv wonder then that iu the peivs
of our comfortable churches are sitting
starved souls?hungry, oh, so hungry,
for what!' They baldly know And
with hearts bureipg and yearning for
more of Jesus, they cry out, "1 shall be
satjyfied when I awake with Thy like?
ness. ; 1
And they think so longiug'.y of Heaven.
I know, for I used to so cty out iu my
longing for Holiness?for deliverance
"from the body of this <leutb." Dear
reader, bo you in the pulpit or in the
pew, you may lit? satisfied here, vnd now.
The. provision is complete far complete
salvation. You may be like Jesus here in
this world "Receive ye tho Holy
Ghost.'1 "And howbeit that when lie
the Spirit or truth has come He will
guide you into all truth: for lie shall not
speak of Himself. * He shall
glorify me," Jesus said. Do you long
to know Jesus:- "Receive ye the Holy
Ghost." it is His joy to talk to von of
Jesus. Do you long to be like Jesus?
"Receive ye the Holy Ghost " Ho is
just, longing for the opportunity to come
in and take up His abode in you thst'Iio
may transform yon into the very intake
of Jesus. Nay, more. He desires to
possess van with Jesus so that for you
''to live is tor Christ, to live." Do you
set; the point!' It. is that vou have the
privilege of being sn filled with the Spirit,
of Jesus that you will at. all times tlo
just as Jesus would were He piac-ed just
as you are: that you would at, all times
be just where He wanted yon to he and
would always do just what. He wanted
you to tlo. Are you a pastor!' Are ye
willing to lay your church, your salary,
your reputation, yea, all yon bold dear,
down, down at the foot of the cross,
while you receive tin; Holy Spirit? If not
you never have received Him, nor enn
you receive Him until you are willing to
let Him ha all and in ail to you. lie may
give you hack all and more than you laid
down now or at some future time. You
may receive all these things from Him;
but if they are not, so received and held
subject to His com ui and at all times yon
havu not. yet received Himself. That,
which we hold in trust, consequent on
His indwelling, we received after we re?
ceived Him, and not before, no matter by
whom committed. Ii must be laid down
subject to His will when you receive
Him. Doos this look and' Oh. it. may
from your side. li lobked stupendous
to that, rich young man, when Jesus told
him to sell alt he had. "Just one thing
thou lackest," Jesus said. Dear one,
whoever you may be, do not sell your
birthright, for a mess oi pottage. The
birthright that is yours, purchased by
the life, .the death, the resurrection and
the ascension of Je?us, is that you may
receive the Holy Ghost and lie made like

right to it. You cannot buy it. people
tried that long ago. Ry your laying all
down does not purchase for you the right
to receive tbo Holy Spirit Jesus did that
long ago, but tlds simply gives Him Itae
right of way with and in you Then, aj
Ho gives these things back again or
withholds them from you, there is noth?
ing that you hold that He canoot uso to
the glory of (Jod. There is nothing that
He withholds that is not equally for
God's glory. And so it comes to pass
that "neither deitli, nor life, nor angels,
nor principalities, nor powers, northings
present, nor things to come, nor height,
nor depth, nor any creature shall be able
to separate us from the love of God,
which is in Ohrist Jesus."
There are times when my heart seems
crushed at the thought of all God has
provided for His redeemed ones, and how
little of it they actually possess: and the
inheritance, for the most part, hinges ou
the answer to the question, "Rave you
received tbo Holy Ghost since yo be?
lieved/" i'o many ask me, "does not
consecration meet the requirements?"
No, no, no, a thousand times no! Con
secratiou, our conpecrntion, never can
take the place of tbo Ho'y tihpst. He is
a Person?One in the God Head?co-equal
and co eternal with the Father and Son.
Consecration is good as far us it goes,
but at best it is only an act, and not a
person, and as such has no vitality in
itself; and that which has no lifo oanuot
give life. Consecration may result in
consequence of our being with some, one
who has received the Holy Sp'rit, or be?
cause we ourselves have Him with or in
us. Rut In no sense cau it take His
piece. (Jod would not to dishonor the
Holy Spirit by letting anything human,
even if it is our "all',' time His place.
Lei us seek and,talk more of His conse?
crating, sanctifying work In us and
thri ugh us than of our consecration.
On, beloved, do le* us honor the Holy
Spirit. Give Him His right place?the
place (Jod tho Father and the Son gave
Him. Receive Him into a believing
heart and you not only have the Holy
Spirit Himself, but you have the Father
and the Son as you cau never have them
in any other way.
I used to think I knew and loved Jesus;
but, dear one. 1 had no conception of His
character then, .as I now compare it
with thn actual, real, personal and living
knowledge of His character as it is being
revealed to me day by day by the Holy
Spiilt. Jesus was sent to reveal the
Father to us. Air' so it happens, con?
sequent on receiving the Holy Ghost, we
receive t he Triune God within us. hach
revealing the other. How Bimple of un?
derstanding ficm this point of view, and
yet so ruysi leal from any other. Oh,
bow stupid we all have been, to be sure,
seeking entrance into the mysteries
every other way but the right way?just
a simple command. If we are otiedient
we shall have some such experience as
Saul of Tarsus had when be received the
Holy Ghost; ami there "fell from Ids
eyes as it were scales.'"
we are Win4 inside and our. "Rliml
loideis of tlit? blind," and all because we
fail to realise theiiupo'tance'of obedience
to His sin.plo command, "Receive ye the
Holy Ghost." Oh, tho rich and prec oils
promises that binge ou our receiving
"the Comforter." Take your Bible and
your B'ble concordance and look them
up, and just see for yourself the inheri?
tance rvhich might be yours right here
and now. .Tu.-t let us take one promise.
Jesus said to the disciples-. "He shall
show you things to come." Docs that
look at all significant to you in these
days when all around tho world, from
every quarter, the saints of God are lift?
ing up their heads in .joyful anticipation
that the coming of Jesus is very near at
hand You cannot know from any other
source whether thi3 expectancy is more
thin a passing fancy or not, unless you
receive the Holy Ghost. He nlcne can
giv<: authentic knowledge of "things to
come." You wi 1 not take my word for
it that "Jesus is coming." You cannot.
God has so planned it that the "wise"
only "shall understand." Who are the
wise? Jesus says, "The wise have oil.*1
And, dear one, don't you Knotv that the
"oil" means the Holy Ghost. If von will
but receive Him Ho will let you know
whether it is true or not that ?'Jesus is
corning That is one uf His specific du?
ties, and to prepare the Bride for Christ.
Ami He cannot prepare you ti'l you rc
ceivo Him. And you cannot receive you r
knowledge intelligently In any other way
than through the Holv Ghost. You may
read all the bonks on chronology and all
the testimonies of the ages that arc beitur
gatheied together to prove thai His com
ing is near at hand, and it will all seem
as incrrdib'.o ami nonsensical as His fit at
coming did to the pious Jew, unless tho
Holy Spirit dwells within and te.-tilies
to th" truths of "these i lungs shortly to
come to pass!" If you expect to receive
your notice of tli>? Lord's return front
any other source you will realize your
mistake when it is too late tri remedy ir.
These things are committed to the Holy
Ghost, and unless you receive Him you
will not be in f position to receive His
testimony to the truth of these things, in
and through others. "Jesus is coming.1'
Thousands and thousands already know
it. Do you:- "Receive ye the Holy Ohost
? ' He shall show you things to
conic.'' Will you let Him?
To li'.e. the coming of Jesus seems Infin?
itely more real than death, and yet peo?
ple are dying in every direction; and the
joy of his near-coming is liecomlng the
paramount thought, .sleeping and wak?
ing. So manv of God's children seem
sr and asleep just when they ought to bo
awake with lumps full of oil. trimmed
nnd bnruing; they are resting and sleep?
ing in Zlon. If you undertake to whin
i er the messatte, or urge them to receive
the Holy Spirit, in order to bo ready
when lie come", they will say "Oh, we
have heard that over sinco we can re
nieint'cr and He isn't here yet. I'm all
rieht air: way" -virtually Baying what
?2 Pet., 8:4. Oh, heioved, If you have
said this iu your heart, or with your lips,
when the message has come to you?"Be?
hold, the Bridegroom cometh"?beware,
lest you seal your owu 100111. 1 believe
the Lord will somehow get the testimony
before every one of Ills possessed follow?
ers. I bei ice that every one of tho vir?
gins, wise and foolish alike, will hear
the cry from some quarter, as in is ring?
ing around tho world to-day?"Jesus it
coming."
Oh, I beseech you, listen. Go straight
to God about it, whether you understand
it or not. Ask Him to lead you iuto
His will regarding the Lord's return.
Pray in faith, und He will surely
lead you Into this "Blessed Hope." Let
the Holy Ghost possess you aud He will
make this, oh, so plaiu to you. Know?
ing it, or seeming to believe it in your
head will only add to your condemnation.
A "pre.millenlalist." or "nost-millen
?allst" will matter litt le, unless the Holy
Ghost has mode you ready for His com?
ing, for whom we have so long and so
lonulugly looked. The timo is shorter
aud growing snorter every day. Any'
moment now the Lord may come for His
Bride. If you have not received the Holy
Ghost you have no oil iu you lamps and
you cannot go into the marriage supper
of the Lamb. Jesus has said it. Oh, I
beseech you, receive this testimony of
His iittlo ones. Ob, rouse yourself, re
ce've th> Holy Ghost. He will teach you
how to watch.
Oh, beloved, let us keep humble, right
down at the foot of the Cross, bearing
faithful testimony us Ho shall give it to
us. Walk in simple, child like obedience,
as He shall make His will clear to you
?nothing more, nothing less. What
more shall I sav at this time? Beloved,
"Watch and pray, for behold, the Bride?
groom cometh."?Baptist.
GIRL HELD FlDRiTRIME.
Mary Jarrell is Charged With Com?
plicity in Murder.
Huntington, W. Va., Nov. 20.?Miss
Mary Jarrell, a charming blonnc, aged
24, antl who comes from one of the test
families in Southern West. Virginia, lan
gnishes behind tho bars at the county
jail here to night, it being alleged that
she was an accomplice in the murder of
Lazarus Vinson, the wealthy timber mo n
of Kastern Kentucky, at Catlettsburg on
the night of May 25, 1805.
Miss Jarrell was reared a neighbor to
the Vinsons and was ati ".intimate friend
of the family. She graduated with .hon?
ors a few years ntto and was at one time
prominent in society. It is alleged that
she followed Vinson to Catlettsburg,
where he sold a quantity c( timber, ami
lured him to n lonely spot in tho out?
skirts of the city, where tboy were met
by Charley Martin and David Justice.
There, it is alleged, the murder \vs com?
mitted and more than if."i,00U in money
was secured.
Vinson's body, it is alleged, was placed
iu a closo carriage and taken to the Big
Sandy railroad, four miles away, where
It was thrown near the water's edge,with
a hope of misleading officials. Detectives
have been constantly at work on the case,
and to-day the llrst. arrests were made.
Justice and Martin are in Catlettsbmg
jail, but Miss Jarrell is here awaiting
requisition papers.
The girl proclaims her innocence, and
says she will have no trouble in proving
her whereabouts the night the murdei
was committed. Vinson was a brother
cf ex-UnittdStates Marshal Sam Vinson,
of West Virginia,ami was for many years
uctive in Democratic politics in Kastern
Kentucky.
The crime, according to the story of
the detectives, is cue of the most horrible
known in this section in the past decade.
Miss Jarrell has traveled extensively and
is ti younu woman of lino Intellect. She
is weakening rapidly to night, and many
believe tlint her confession is only a itunt
ter of a very short time. Feeling is very
Strong against Justice and Martin, and
some prudict trouble at the preliminary
hearing.
MONEY LOST BY GAMBLING.
Indiana Supreme Court Holds the Wife
May Recover at All Times.
Indianapolis, Ind., Nov. 20.~The su?
preme court held in the case of John R.
Ervin against the Stale in relation of
Nellie A. Walley, appealed;from the cir?
cuit court, that, the stittuto making it the
duty of the prosecuting attorney to "sue
for and recover in the name of the State
for the benefit of his wife or minor chil?
dren all sums cf money lost by any per?
son at gambling, for which he neglect:' |
to sue within s'x months, is constitu?
tional. The court says that tho title to
money won at gambling never vests in the
winner: also that giving the 'property to
tho loser's wife instead of himself, when
it is recovered, does not infringe his
right, because be cannot be entitled to
compensation for property to which he
lias no right.

It ought to interest everybody to
know that the terrible affliction
called Scrofula is the forerunner of a
still more terrible disease. Scrofula
is the seed of consumption. It is so
deep-seated and obstinate that not
one doctor in a hundred can cure it.
To cure Scrofula, you must cure tho
blood. You must go down to tho
roots and reach deep. A glossing
over with mineral poisons is not
only useless, but makes tilings a
great deal worse.
S^%?ift's Specific cures Scrofula
when nothing else will. It purifies
and vitalizes tho blood. It drives
out the poisonous elements. It stops
the accumulation of morbid deposits.
It is purely vegetable, and, is the
discovery of an eminent scientist.
It is for the blood alone;?that is all
it is good for. If you have Scrofula,
Catarrh, Rheumatism. Cancer. Ec
zema or any other Rlood Disease,
S. S. will cure you, no matter how
many doctors or other medicines
have failed.

TIRED MOTHERS.
A little elbow leans upon your knee,
Your tired csnee, that 'has so much to
beat;
A child's dear eyes, looking lovingly
From underneath a thatch of tangled
hnir.
Perhaps you do uot heed the velvet touch
Of warm, moist ilue.ers, folding vours so
tight;
You do not prize this blessing over much,
You almost are too tired to pray to night.
Hut it is blessedness. A year ago
I did uot see it as I do to-day.
We are so dull and thaukiess, and too
slow
To catch the sunshine till it ?Ups sway.
And now it seems surpassing strange to
me
That while I wore the budge of mother?
hood,
I did not kiss more oft. and tenderly,
The littlo child that brought, me only
good.
Anil if. some night,when you sit down to
rest,
You miss the elbow from your tired knee,
This restless curling head from off your
breast,
This lisping tmigue that chatters con?
stancy;
If from your own the dimpled bauds had
slipped,
And ne'er would nestle iu your palta
again;
If the white feet into their grave hail
tripped,
1 could not blame yon for your heart ache
then.
I wonder so that mothers ever fret.
At little children clinging to their gown;
Or that th?i foot-piints, when the days
are wet.
Are ever black enough to make them I
frown.
If I could find a little muddy boot.
Or cap, or jacket, on my chamber floor;
II I could kiss a rosy, restless foot.
lYod hear its patter iu my home once
more;
If I could tuend a broken cart, to-dar.
To-morrow make a kite to reacV the sky.
There is no woman in God's world could
say
She was more blissfully content than I.
Hut, ah, the dainty pillow next my own
I Is never ru'iled by ;i shiny head;
My singing bildling from its nest is down,
The little boy 1 used to kiss is dead.
