The special visitors last evening were the pupils of the grammar school nnd the sixth grade, who came in a body, accompanied by their principal and teachers. They sang two songs, "Hail and Crown Him King" and "I.ift Up the Banner," with Miss Bessie Bear as their leader. The opening prayer was offered by R. C. Weeber, secretary of the Carlisle Y. M. C. A., and the Scrip ture lesson was read by the Rev. C. F. Raach. Just before the sermon Miss Cree sang " I Want to Co There, l>on't You?" When Mr. Miller rose to preach, he asked all who want to go to heaven to raise their hands, —then all who are ready to go. Again he asked for brief requests for prayer for unsaved friends, and many were made. After a brief prayer for these unsaved ones, the evan gelist preached on "Heaven." He gave a* his reasons for believing in heaven, the universal. God-implanted yearning for heaven, the fact that no one has heaven on earth, and She fact that God savs there is a heaven. He showed that heaven is a real place, a place of magnificent size and of wondrous beau ty, that heaven is a city of gates, that its gates are at the end of the straight and narrow way, ami, that they have been opened only through the death of Jesus Christ. "The pearls of the gate of heaven were formed from the shed ding of the li"e blood of Jesus Christ; there was no gate until that blood was shed, and the gate will never be opened for you but through your acceptance of tlie sacrifice of that biood. The beau ty of heaven is not in the walls of Jasper and the gates of pearl, but in the presence of Jesus. Are you ready to meet Him there!" Although, xxwing to the inclement, weather, the attendance was smaller than it has been on any previous even ing but one, the number of penitents was larger than on any previous even ing. Forty-five persons came forwardl to confess their sins and pledge them selves to Christ. To-night Mr. Miller will preach on "Excuses Answered." Friday will be "Merchants' Day."

RECIPE TO DARKEN GRAY HAIR By a Specialist A very satisfactory preparation which darkens gray hair aud acts as a corrective agent for dandruff and other diseases of the scalp can be made at small exjiense anil in your own home by dissolving a small box of, Barbo Compound in 7 ounces of water and then adding an ounce of bay rum and a quarter ounce of glycerine. Any drug store can furnish these ingredients. This is to be applied once a week until the hair is sufficiently darkened, then every two weeks to keep the hair soft and glossy and the scalp in ft healthy condition. It may be used with equal success in darkening the beard. This is a preparation that gives splendid results, both as n hair darkener and a remedy for all scalp disorders, and us well worthy of a trial.

Wilks, -the famous horticulturist, who developed the Shir- j ley poppy: If you. cross pure yellow or pure j green peas either way—it matters not I i which is seed bo-trer and which pollen | bearer —you will net all yellow sceils. j j If you sow these hybrid seeds each will, 1 j if it germinates, produce a plant vvhicn ! will bear, say, forty seeds, thirty of which will on the average be yellow j and ten green. The green, if sown and j sown for countless generations, will al : ways bear green seeds true to tiie orig- ! ; |inal' parents (barring the always pos j silde intervention of insects). Not so the thirty yellow. These i , j when sown will on the average produce j I ten plants bearing all pure yellow seeds,! > which will bo constant and true to the I | original yellow parent for countless j generations. The remaining twenty j plants will be impure yellow, each plant I j producing, on the average, one-quarter j of its seeds pure yellow, one-quarter I I pure green and one-half impure yellow, I j which last will repeat the process and j I proportion practically forever.
