Temptation
“As the fishes are taken In an evil
net. and the birds that are caught in
the snare, so are the sons of men
snared in an evil time.’’—Ec !>:1-.
Tiie very pxistnnee In the world Is
the fullest proof of the existence of a
devil: evil is the biggest part of hi
name; take "evil** out and he is harm
less: the presence of the devil is the
only reason of temptation.
Men are not wise enough to e-cape
It: they are caught as fishes in a
bunch: or a bird, singly : they rush into
the thing blindly or are fooled by the
desuit of Satan.
As men set snares for the bird so
the devil sets snares for men. and lie
always cause men to do his dirty dork.
He i- too much of a gentleman to on
*age in some of the low down, eon
temf.ible work we see men engaged in
sometime. Many a gambler lias been
made in the fashionable parlor, with
the aid >f a beautiful woman Many a
drunkard was first caught by the glass
of wine in the hands of some bewitch
Ing damsel, and many a soul has I teen
trapped by the smile and caresses of
a Magdalene.
The net is too often in sight. The
snare is covered, the victim set's not
the danger until it is too late, then alas
he finds himself powerless to overcome
the enemy, now so firmly entrenched
within.
Sad picture, this, but a true one
But there is a ray of sunshine that
pierces the gloom that overhangs it
Kn sin. habit or vice has ever stood
unbroken in the presence of Jesus
Christ. He breaks the chain of habit,
he opens the prison of doubt, bo breaks
the snares and nets. Invite him Into
your heart and life and liberty and
victory is yours.
Do it today.

CREW ARRESTED
IN EL DORADO
Secret Service Agents I'ncover Scheme
Of Raising $10 Notes.
Memphis. Tenn., .Inly 3.—With the
arrest of two men in El Dorado, Ark.,
today, on charges of counterfeiting, fol
lowing the arrest of three others in
I, tile Hock recently on a similiar
charge, John C. Marsh, chief of the
I nked States secret service bureau
here declared that thousands of dollars
.a spurious Sin note, have been passed
recently in Texas, Louisiana and Ark
ansas
Chief Marsh said that counterfeit
ing outfits were eaptuyed in both Little
Hock and El Dorado and 'Jie counter
feiting scheme consisted of raising $10
notes to those of $50 denomination.
The first arrest occured several days
ago in Louisiana when J. Allenhoff
was taken into custody. Names of the
two men arrested in El Dorado were
not divulged by Chief Marsh, the three
arre fed ;n Little Rock were L. P. Per
kins and Hoy Perkins, brothers and
Glen McElroy. The officials charge
that the alleged counterfeiters have
been traveling through the three states
remaining only a short time in eacii
city and that they have manufactured
the supurious $50 notes in their hotel
looms.
Bees Eaten for Revenge.
Bees are usually employed as manu
farturers of honey, which Is every
where considered a delicious food, bm.
there are places where the bees them,
selves serve as a food.
The negroes of Guiana, when stung
by a bee, proceed to catch as many as
they can and in revenge eat them. It
would be interesting to know what
happens as an effect of the sting thus
taken internally.
In Ceylon the natives hold a torch
under the bee swarm hanging to a
tree, catch them us they drop, then
carry them home, boll them and eat
them.—Popular Screucii Monthly.
What She Was Afraid Of.
A little four-year-old remarked to
her mamma on going to bed: "I am not
afraid of the dark.” “No, of course
you're not,” replied her mamma, "for
It can’t hurt you.” ‘‘But, mamma.
I was a little afraid once when I
went to the pantry in the dark to get
a cooky.” “What were you afraid of?”
asked her mamma. “I was afraid 1
couldn’t find the cookies."—Pacific Ka
ra! Press.
Collecting Overdone.
Miss Madge was making her first
trip In a train
The ticket collector came along and
called for the tickets. Madge readily
gave up her ticket
But later they stopped at a station
and a station hov came down the plat
form calling:
"Chocolates!”
“Never!" cried Madge bravely.
"You can take my ticket, but not my
chocolates!"
