LIFE'S GREAT MAGNET. Rev. Joel B. Slocum, D. D., Says It is Found in the Personality of Jesus Christ. Life's great magnet is found in the personality of Jesus Christ, said Rev. Joel B. Slocum, D. D., in his shop talk at the International Sllver company Tuesday noon under the auspices of the Y. M. C. A. Mre. George T. Lord ren- dered several vocal solos. Trere was a report some time ago of an interesting experiment that was made at Willett's Point by Captain King of the United States army, said Rev. Dr. Slocum. He took an old cannon 16 feet long, wrapped it with 10 miles of copper wire and khen connected it with an electric battery. The result was astonishing. The oid gun that had been a mighty force for repulsion now became the source of great attraction. The iron and steel which it used to repel is now enticed. In a word, the old disused gun became the most wonderful magnet in the world. People went to see it and be- came greatly Interested In its marvei- ous power. When the power was turned on it would raise as much as 22 tons. Cannomballs which no man could lift would rise from the ground to the muzzle of the magnet. One of the most interesting experiments was to place a soldler about a foot from the muzele of the gun and then turn on the current. Great iron epikes would jump from the ground and at- tach themselves to the soldler, who bristled with them like a porcupine. Even great cannonballs would leap up and hang upon him. But when he moved away from the magnet the iron would fall to the ground, becausc the power was not in himself but in the et. Life's great magnet is found in the personality of Jesus Christ, who lived on this earth, and who, when he was about to leave the world, said: “And It I be lifted up will draw all men unto myself.” The work which He did still draws the world towards Him. The qualities of His character are the greatest forces today in human society. And He wants us to become magnets that will draw men towards Himself. A story will illustrate one way by which we can appiy this la wof at- traction. A lawyer bought a farm where there had been a lawsuit go- ing on for many years with a neighbor about a boundary line. The lawyer went to see the obstinate neighbor at W’- ——————— I HAIR COMING OUT? | causes a t'h"mh:hsr frrita- e of the scalp, e roots -::nk, loosen and then the hair comes out fast.
