god to put something into my heart to say tha will be right and good I 1 dont ever haying buch a blank mind ai I 1 have this afternoon my mind leals uie to wonder what ha brought this vast assembly out which causes mo to think of a n mirk that a druggist me boid mp llevad ot ali tae thin he meat was dit ccora aind religion 1 l aclis ot aur faith ly amling fur them and many times they do nut go ant send advice and prescript ama etc when we break a if 0 o abend for a doctor and call him llie best fellow on barth but when be sends in his bill w a little doubt whether he ia realty itie best fellow or not I 1 ana once at shoshone falls idaho waiting in an engine room when word came that a man had his foot crushed n the rs which pleased the doctor and lie it once cut the mans foot off thus eavin his life soon we went to where a lady waa guttering with lie extracted the tooth and the jadv way lad that there wre doctors tin next morning a baby was bitten by si d and ms n biad his leg broken the doctor attended to both cases ami fiade these people glad that there were doat ra next day wo were stopped twice to attend to simi lar cases and people were glad that there worn doctors we have not all faith unto restoration so here is a provision for us lo 10 be made whole as the Doctrin rt and covenants says drink depp or taste not of he hyperion spring A li lie knowledge is danger

pion being a fraud what is it paid my won i s arnth A time aio we bieard of the cars running without steam engines horses or mules or s the chinaman says no liars eno pe no nesbee no dull ee but coee lakee bellee he it is in every bense and because we cannuci see spiritual and infinite manifestations is no reason that there is no truth in the unseen so with the black plague in europe could not be seen and hundreds of thousands of people were devoured by have faith and in it there is intelligence that will eive us aid for as our messages are transmitted over the land and under the ocean unseen so will god hear our prayers he is observant of ayery act of ours and lia power is as high above ours as the stars are above alie earth it is an invisible fact that to enter a close room with a shovel full of charcoal embers and close the doors the fumes will extract llie oxygen from the air resulting in the death ol 01 the occupant so the unseen caused the death of that person and in all of our elivea are theao unseen elements some every power and influence of god is and unseen I 1 testify in the name of god that there is a spirit in man and that there will be a tion of the dead some to one glory and some lo 10 another we are all in the hands of the lord and he can knutt out candle of life at any moment he desires as did he alio re belled in earthly power and splendor if you woud be better than your fellow beings do better than they and if you would be happy live temperate lives use all bilings in wisdom for god will bless you in using what lie has riven for your good I 1 keep the best brandy and whisky that is made and if you want a drink I 1 will give it to you but I 1 keep it for medical purposes I 1 ask you to stop your smoking blasphemy and drinking and like jeseth of old everything will prosper in your hands we need men to preside over stakes tj act as bishops ino to lill kotlier responsible pos lion but a man who is like a watch missing one hand you cant depend on and he is of no use get married for a man is the moat natural when he keeps the first commandments A multitude of people will come up for judgment who have destroyed dis troyed their power to fulfill the command of god and it will be told then a murderer mur derei hath no part in alie kingdom of god you might ask why 1 can bbate that I 1 know the gospel is true I 1 10 lo it as john has said in hia ath chapter if yon will do the will of the father you shall knor of thy doctrine whether it be of god or of men were the words of christ dont he ashamed of the truth nor allow the blush of shame to over your brow conference adjourned for three months the choir eana an anthem benediction by HII H II duff |
