Ror the covenant of the Lord stood firm on
dry ground in midst of the Jordan,
and all the Israelites passed over on dry
ground, until all the people were passed

crossing was pronounced impossible, but he

lespont with 2,000,000 men, but he dil it by
bridge. The Israelites crossed the Bod Sea,
but the same orchestra that celebrated the
deliverance of the one army sounded the
strangulation of the other. This Jordanic
passage differs from all. There was no sac-
rifice of human life—not so much as the loss
of a linchpin. The vanguard of the host,
made up of priests, advanced until they put

for you, first, that ohstacies, when they are

these priests came down and touched the
water—the edge of the water with their feet
—the water parted. They did not seade in

water it vanished. And it makes me think
that almost all the obstacles of life need only

family parting, no gloomy obsequies. It
wouldn't take five minutes to go from bank

together forever, Wouldn't it be pleasant
for you to take all your family into that
blessad country if you could all go together?
I remember my motoer in her dying hour
said to my father, “Father, wouldn't it be
pleasant if we could all go together?” But
we cannot all go together. We mustgo one
by one, and we must be grateful if we got
there at all. What a heaven it will be if
we have all our families there to look
around and see all the children are present!
You would rather have them all there, and
you go with bare brow forever, than that

Takes Two Rascals to Work It.
Land values increase so rapidly in
New York that it is easy to mortgage
such property pretty well up to the
selling value, and this fact has opened
the way to an ingenious method of
something very like swindling. A,
representing himself as the agent of
B, purchases desirable vacant land
for say $175,000, and before papers
pass, B sells the same to A at 8225,
000. B then, upon the strength of
this transaction, obtains a mortgage
of $200,000 upon the property. Of
course A and B are in collusion, and
the original purchaser really repre.
sented both, while the second trans
action was solely for the purpose of
establishing a price upon which the
mortgage could be obtained.
