THE GOSPEL OP TRUTH AND PEACE. 



Our Father which art in heaven. 



Here are two good things to believe in, a Father, who has promised to 

 withhold no good thing from them that walk uprightly; and Heaven, a 

 haven of peace and rest to look forward to. 



Hallowed be thy name. 



Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain. Some kind 

 neighbors once said: "We prayed that your child might live, but we did not 

 expect she could recover." Is prayer without faith efficient? But there 

 was prayer with faith, and the child lived. 



Thy kingdom come, 



Thy will be done on earth, as it is in heaven. 

 Give us this day our daily bread. 



We see thousands of anxious faces daily, careworn faces, people who 

 are striving — not for this day's bread — but for more than they need. But 

 seek ye first his kingdom, and his righteousness; and all these things shall 

 be added unto you. 



And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. 



Have we forgiven the man who wronged us, the man who gave short 

 weight, he who deceived? It is good to hope for forgiveness — let us pave 

 the way by forgiving. 



And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. 



Here, too, there is something that needs doing first— clear life's path of 

 temptations for others, and we will find it clean for our own feet to 

 tread. "Where every prospect pleases, and only man is vile." Let us elim- 

 inate the last clause in speaking of our home land — banish saloons and 

 vice, and all that may tempt others, and we shall not then be tempted. 



For thine is the kingdom, the power, the glory, forever. 



And we are offered a share in this kingdom, without money and with- 

 out price. Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall iind; knock, 

 and it shall be opened unto you. 



And they shall teach no more every man his neighbor, know Jehovah; 

 for they shall all know me, from the least of them unto the greatest of 

 them, saith Jehovah. 



Let us hasten the coming of that time.

SAN DIEGO HARBOR. 



"I have visited every harbor from Portland, Maine, to Seattle and San 

 Francisco, and nowhere have I found a more ideal natural haven than here 

 in the bay of San Diego."— John A Fox, of National Rivers and Harbors 

 committee.

METEORITES FROM ARIZONA. 



The extraordinary deposits of meteorites near Canyon Diablo, Ari- 

 zona, which have occasioned much comment and discussion among leading 

 geologists of the country, is being nrcide the subject of a study by Professor 

 George P. Merrill and Wirt Tassin, of the department of geology of the 

 United States National Museum. The Smithsonian institution last spring
