toward evening'
Two villager having concluded their Jerusalem to Emmaue will soon be end
errand In Jerusalem have started out ed Our Bible our common scrse our
e on their wav observation reiterate In tones that we
at the city gate and are on their way rn3take knd ougnl nol lo d
to Emmaus the place of their residence j nt)irm jt ig toward evening
They g with a sad heart Jesus who The words of the text are pertinent to
had been their admiration and their us all from the fact that we are near-
i MM the evening or deatn 1 nave nemo
joy
tombed As with sad face and broken
heart they pass on thslr way a stranger
accost them They tell him their anx
ieties and bitterness of souL He In turn
talks t thorn mUhtUy expounding the
Scriptures He throws over them the
fanclnatlor of Intelligent conversation
They forget the time and notice not the
objecta they pass and before they are
aware have come up In front of their
house They pause before the entrance
and attempt to persuade the stranger to
tarry wi'h them They press upon him
their hospitalities Night Is coming on
and he may meet a prowling w ild beast
or be obliged to sleep unsheltered from
the dew He ran not go much further
now Why not stop there and continue
their pleasant conversation 7 They take
him by the arm and they Insist upon his
coming In addressing him In the words:
"Abide with us for It is toward even
ing" The candles are lighted the table is
spread pleasant socialities are en
kindled They rejoice in the presence
of the stranger guest He asks a bless
ing upon the bread they eat and he
hands a piece of It to each Suddenly
a with overwhelming power the
thought n-tshes upon the astonished
people— It Is the Lord! And as they
sit in breathless wonder looking upon
tlp resurrected body of Jesus he van
ished The interview ended He was
Atone
With many of us it Is a bright sun
shiny day of prosperity There is not a
cloud in the sky not a leaf running In
the forest No chill in the air Hut we
can not expect all this to last He Is
not an Intelligent man who expects
perpetual daylight of Joy The sun will
after awhile near the horizon The
shadows will lengthen While 1 speak
manv of us stand In the very hour de
scribed in the text "for it is toward
evening" The request of the text is
appropriate for some before me For
with them It Is toward the evening of
old age They have passed the merid
ian of life They are sometimes startled
to think how old they are They do not
however like to have others remark
upon II If others suggest their approx
imation toward venerable appearance
they say "Why I'm not so old after
all They do Indeed notice that they
can not lift quite so much as once They
can not walk nuke so fat They can
not read quite so well without spec
tacle They can not so easily recover
from a eutigh or any occasional ailment
Thy have lost their taste for merriment
They are surprised at the yuick pass
age of the year They say that it only
se'-ms a little while ago that they were
boys They are going a little down hill
There Is something in their health
something in their vision something in
their walk something in their changing
associations something above some
thing beneath something within to re
mind them that It is toward evening
The great want of all such is to have
Jt-sus abide with them It is a dismal
thing to be getting old without the re
juvenating Influence of rel'glon When
we step on the down grade of life nd
see that It dips to the verge of the cold
river we want to behold some one near
who will help us across It When the
eight loses its power to glance and gath
er up we need the faith that can illu
mine When we feel the failure of the
ear we need the clear tones of that
voice which In olden times broke up the
silence of the deaf with cadences of
mercy When the ax-men of death hew
down whole forests of strength and
beauty around us and we are left in
solitude we need the dove of divine
mercy to sing In our branches When
the shadows tteirin to fall and we feel
that the day Is far spent we need most
of all to supplicate the strong benefi
cent Jesus in the prayer of the villagers
"Abide with us for it is toward even
ing
The request of the text is an ap
propriate exclamation for all those who
are approached In the gloomy hour of
temptation There is nothing easier
than to be good-natured when every
thing pleases or to be humble when
there is nothing to oppose us or forgiv
ing when we have not been assailed or
honest when we have no Inducement to
fraud But you have felt the grapple
of some temptation Your nature at
some time quaked and groaned under
the Infernal force You felt that the
devil was after you You saw your
Christian grace retreating You feared
that you would fall in the awful wrestle
with sin and be thrown into the dust
The gloom thirkened The first indica
tions of the night were seen In all the
trembling of your soul In all the In
fernal suggestions of Satan in all the
surging up of tumultuous passions and
excitements you felt with awful empha
sis that It was toward evening In the
tempted hour you need to ask Jesus to
abide with you You tan beat back the
monster that wt uld devour you You
can unhorse the sjn that would ride you
down You can sharpen the battle-ax
with which ytiu split the head of hel
meted abomination' Who helped Paul
shake the bnuen-gated heart of Felix?
Who acted like a good sailor when all
the crew howled In the Mediterranean
shipwreck? Who helped the martyrs to
he firm when one word of recantation
would have unfastened the withes of
the stake and put out the kindling Are''
When the night of the soul came on
and all the denizens of darkness came
riding upon the winds of perdition—
who gave strength to the bouI? Who
pave calmness to the heart? Who broke
the spell of Infernal enchantment He
who heard the request of the villagers
"Abide with us for it is toward even
ing
The prayer of the text Is appropriate
for all who are anticipating sorrow The
greatest folly that ever grew on this
planet is the tendency to borrow trouble
but there are times when approaching
sorrow Is so evident that we need to be
making special preparation for Its com

One of your children has lately jecome

victim of rnmrnk
Death At Chicago of the Hon
William Henry Smith
Of
it said that we ought to live as though
each moment were to be our last 1 do
not believe that theory As far as
preparation Is concerned we ought al
ways to be ready but we can not always
be thinking of death for we have duties
in life that demand our attention When
a man Is selling goods It Is his business
to think of the bargain he is making
When a man is pleading In the courts
It Is his duty to think of the Interests
of his clients When a clerk Is adding
up his accounts It Is his duty to keep
his mind upon the column of flguses
He who fills up his life with thoughts
of death is far from being the highest
style of Christian I knew a man who
used often to say at night: "I wish I
might die before morning!'' He became
an infidel
But there are times when we can and
ought to give ourselves to the contem
plation nf that solemn moment when to
the soul time ends and eternity begins
We must go through that one pass
There is no roundabout way no by
path no circuitous route Die we must
and it will be to us a shameful occur
rence or a time of admirable behavior
Our friends may stretch out their hands
to keep us back but ne imploratlon on
their part can hinder us They might
offer large retainers but death would
not take the fee The breath will fall
and the eyes will close and the heart
will stoo You may hang the couch with
gorgeous tapestry but what docs death state
care for beautiful curtains? You may for a
hang me room wnn ine iiiiest woiks
of art but what does death care for
pictures? You may fill the house with
the waitings of widowhood and orphan
age does death mind weeping?
This ought not to be a depressing
theme Who wants to live here for
ever? The world has always treated
me well and every day 1 feel less and
UM like scolding nnd complaining But
yet I would not want to make this my
eternal residence I love to watch the
clouds and baihe my soul In the blue
sea of heaven but I expect when the
firmament is rolled away as a scroll to
see a new heaven grander higher and
more glorious You ought to be willing
to exchange your body that has head
aches and sldeaches and weaknesses
Innumerable that limps with the stone
bruise or festers with the thorn or
flames on the funeral pyre of fevers for
an incorruptible body and an eye ihat
blinks not before the Jasper gates and
the great white throne But between
that and this there Is an hour about
which no man should be reckless or
foolhardy I doubt not your courage
but I tell you that you will want some
thing better than a strong arm a good
aim and a trusty sword when you come
to your last battle You will need a bet
ter robe than any you have In your
wardrobe to keep you warm in that
place
Circumstances do not make so much
difference It may be a bright day
when you push off from the planet or
It may be a dark night and while the
owl is hooting from the forest It may
be spring and your soul may go out
among the blossoms apple orchards
swinging their censers In the way It
may be winter and the earth In a snow
shroud It may be autumn and the
forests set on fire by the retreating
year dead nature laid out In state It
may tie with your wife's hand in your
hand or you may be in a strange hotel
with a servant faithful to the last It
may he in the rail train shot off the
switch and tumbling In long reverbera
tion down the embankment crash!
I know not the time I know not the
mode but the days of our life are being
subtracted away and we shall come
dow-n to the time when we have but ten
days left then nine days then eight
days then seven days six days live
days four days three days two days
one day Then hours three houss two
hours one hour Then only minutes
left five minutes four minutes three
minutes two minutes one minute Then
only seconds left four seconds three
seconds two seconds one second -Clone!
The chapter of life ended! The book
closed! The pulse at rest! The feet
through with the Journey! The hands
closed from all work No word on the
Hps No breath in the nostrils Hair
combed back to He undlsheveled by any
human hands The muscles still The
nerves still The lungs still The tongiie
still All still You might put the sfth
oscope to the breast and hear no sound
You might put a speaking trumpet to
the ear but you could not wake the
deafness No motion no throb no life
Still' still'
So death comes to the disciple' What
if the sun of life 18 about to set? Jesus
is the day-spring from on high the per
petual morning of every ransomed spir
it What if the darkness comes? Jesus
is the light of the world and of heaven
What though this earthly house does
tyumble! Jesus has prepared a house
of many mansions Jesus Is the anchor
that always holds Jesus is the light
that is never eclipsed Jesus Is the foun
tain that is never exhausted Jesus is
the evening star hung up amid the
gloom of the gathering night!
You are almtst through with the
abuse and backbiting of enemies Thy
will call you no more evil names Your
good deeds will no longer be misinter
preted nor your honor filched The
troubles of earth will end in the felici
ties! Toward evening! The bereave
ments of earth will soon be lifted You
will not much longer stand pouring

The following reply has been kindly fur
nished by the Harrodsburg correspondent
of the Courier-Journal:
When the late Lr Graham owned
and operated the "old Graham
Springs" (a great summer rt-Hort
In his day) there were two spriigb which
gave this place great celebrity One was
known as Greenville Sprint: talrg its
name from its close proximty to the then
famous female college then called Green
ville afterward Daughters College The
water of this spring was chalybeate ami
said to contain line medicinal Qualities It
baa been abandoned years ago sold to a
private party and is not used at ell now
by any one In faet it is ctred up 1 be
lieve The other and perhaps most poted
Is still in use by the people of Harmds
burg and often by summer visitors who
come hera procure boarding in pi ive te
families and visit the spring or have Its
Water delivered to them Its chief medici
nal constituents are iron and magnesia it
ia said to have great efficacy in kidnpy
diseases and consumptives imagine they
derive some benefit from free use of It
Til's spring is now located In the city park
It is free to everybody and is a favorite
resojt Qf our people eany m ww
Inge awl late in the afternoons The name
"Greenville Springs" years ago was com
monly applied to both or to the Graham
Springs the latter going by both name
The property was all sold to the United
States Government and a Soldiers' Home
established here in the Graham buildings
which were ail destroyed during the war
Later on the Government sold it and still
later Col Bennett Young organized a
company which bought the property laid
ofl' a park which included the ion spring
and donated It to our city and surveyed
the rest into lots and streets and it is
now known as the Asylum addition to
Harrodsburg and pretty well built up with
resdences

Baldwin Ky— If you shoot a ball from
a cannon pointed towards a rifle which Is
loaned with a bullet and shoot both at the
same time the cannon ball and the bulb t
strike each other and the ball carries the
bullet on with It WOUld the cannon ball
stop any length of tma as soon as it struck
the bullet? We know that the bullet stops
before It starts back M L Y
For a certain time after the bullet meets
the cannon bail it -'an not be considered
as a whole since the impact changes its
shapfl or in other words the relative po
sitions of the particle? which compose it
Th's change of course InvoH es move
ment of the particles among them
selves But finally the particles of
the bullet which were all mov
ing in one direction begin to move In a
directly opposite direction As for the can
non ball on the other hand neglecting
whatever slight change the impact of tho
bullet may make in its shape the only dif
ference In its state of motion Is that its
velocity Is suddenly diminished so as to
become equal to the quotient of the dif
ference between its original momentum
and the original momentum of the bullet
divided by the mass of the larger body
Therefore the cannon ball does not stop
If the bullet or any particle of it stops
for any length of time it must be for that
time during which the velocity of the one
is equal and opposite to the velocity of
the other and this can only happen if the
original velocity of the bullet was the
greater of the two and the bullet or some
particle of it pierces the cannon bail to
some extent

Henderson Ky— What is meant in
speaking of books by "a Tauchnitz?"
R R
An enterprising publisher of Leipzig
Germany by name Tauchnitz took to
printing and publishing all over In
Germany and the Continent of Europe
editions of the most popular English books
As there was no copyright agreement be
tween Great Britain and those countries
these editions could be printed without
payment of any royalty to the authors
The books were sold cheap and were very
largely bought b-y British and American
tourists so that Tauchnitz grew rich But
the law forbids their importation into the
British Empire and attempts to Binugyle
them in give the customs officials con
siderable trouble
Savanna L T— Kindly tell me If the
name of Gov JameB Garrard was pro
nounced In the early part of the century
as it is now viz: with the G soft as If
spelled Jarrard? G D C
So far as we can ascertain the name
is pronounced "Gerard" or "Jorard"
with the accent on the second syllable by
some few people In Garrard county and
the vicinity but Garrard with the G hard
and accent on the first syllable Is more
common It is possible that the unnatural
pronunciation was the original and that
the name was spelled Gerrard or Gerard
This is only a conjecture but it Is borne
out by the theory advanced by good au
thority about the name now spelled
Desha that the unnatural pronunciation
of it which is the commonly accepted in
dicates an older and more correct spelling
of tho French name Dechene Dechesne
