Among the citations which comprise the lesson-sermon is the following from the Bible: "Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not of things which do appear" (Heb. 11). The lesson-sermon also Includes the following passages from the Christian Science text-book. "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," by Mary Baker Eddy: "Substance is that which is eternal and incapable of discord and decay.

Truth, Life, and Love are substance. as the Scriptures use this word In Hebrews: "The substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. As material knowieage aimin- lshes and spiritual understanding Increases, real objects will be apprehended mentally Instead of materially." (S. and H. p.

468 and 96). Seventh-Day Adventlst. Service at the Seventh-Day Ad- vcntlst church. Missouri avenue and Frederick street, will be of special interest Sunday night. The pastor, J.
