,. The Greatest Work in the World ||
(By Evangelist H. C. Buckholz)
Without a doubt the greatest work
that one can do is to win souls. "He
1 that winneth souls is wise." I would
1 rather be a soul winner than to be ^
? the sovereign of the greatest nation
i on earth. I would rather experience
J the conquest of one soul for good than pp
to have been Alexander, Ceasar or:
Napoleon in their conquests of the pa
1 world. In the last day I would rather
have a soul come to me and say:
"Under God, you were instrumental
? in leading me into a knowledge of
the truth," than to have climbed to ^
* the topmost round in the ladder of ^
fame. Du
"And perchance in heaven to me one!*
s , ian
ay' j yo
Some blessed Saint will come and Lj0
say: ! ,
'Al! hail, beloved, but for thee, we
s My soul to death had been a prey; je<.
And Oh, what rapture in the thought, ^
One soul to glorv to have
[ brought!' ? ' 2
To win souls, however, is not an to
s easy task. It is the most difficult sei
work to which one has ever addressed
v himself. Harder is it than to build ^
e railroads, than to project great com- ^
j mercial enterprises, than to conduct a
0 a successful war. than to raise the ^
s price of cotton or tobacco. It ref
quires consecration of life. None can jj
s be a successful sou! winner who points ^
. to the atoning sacrifice with a hand ^
t leprosied by sin. It requires a burn- yQ,
j ing passion for souls. One's heart
s must be on fire with love for souls pe
e if he would win them. It requires' pa
r tact. To go rough-shod for one;
J whom you are trying to win is u>:
i drive them farther away. Tact, or
.'wisdom, is nor manufactured. but it
is promised to the one who sincerely
s asks for it. "If any man lack wis- m(
e dom, let him ask of God. who giveth an
to all men liberally and upbraideth
not" Soul-winning, to be fruitful 0f
must be accompanied by personal effort.
Hand-picked fruit is the best. tjr
I We do not sweep jewels into the King- pgj
j dom; we must cany them in one by ,
| one. Some of the greatest trophies m{
of salvation, like John Gough and D.
L. Moody, were the result of personal jov
effort. The early deciples were me
brought to the Master one at a time. <
Each soul must be won by one. Oh,
that this might be the time when the -q
Christians of Kingstree shall give
themselves to the work of soul-win- gU(
ine. If each Christian will try to
influence iust one person to come to C0I
*? in fliO
the meetings now in (iivgicoo ? w.~ ]n^
s Baptist church and then will pray jjjj
t earnestly for that one and back it pr
s by personal effort, many souls will 0f
be reached. Shall we not try? thi

"I just think the world of Tanlae

said Miss Lila Shelton, of No. 6 Saco j
street. Greenville. "I took Tanlac for
a generally run down condition and
chronic appendicitis. I had been in
bad health about two years and I
suffered a great deal from indigestion.
Also I was as nervous as I could be.
I hardly ate anything at all and, in
fact, I ate just like a bird, a little at j
a time. I suffered awfully from head- j
aches, too.
