Text Appearing Before Image:
" It's fall was the crash our ears heard when we beheld the
Angel descend from the cloud. Nevermore shall its stones be
set one upon another. "
" Nevermore, " answered Minister Good. " And now the
Master Himself may soon appear. For this we must pre-
pare. "
" Yes, all must be ready for Him, for 'of that day and hour
knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father
only,' " answered the prophet.
The Good Angel had undertaken a journey throughout the
earth, and everywhere behind her the fires of purifying fell
upon the people; everywhere the kingdom of Jesus upon its
own foundation was being built up, and the glad day of His
redeemed came in peace and power.

THE CASTLE OF THE ENEMY IS DESTROYED

Man-of-the-World with Hypocrite and Whole-soul, return-
ing from a church service, came to the spot where it was told
them by Evangelist that Satan had been entombed; and as they
stood in their rejoicing with faces toward the Hill of the Cross,
the eyes of the former glanced toward the castle, and lo! it was
not there.
Text Appearing After Image:

" For a thousand years thou shalt await the day
of the doom. " SAVED AS BY FIRE

" What lias befallen the castle? " cried he.
The eyes of the three turned toward the spot and though
thev could trace the winding path up the mountain, none could
see the castle of the Enemy of Souls.
" Let us go and behold what desolation hath been wrought, "
said Whole-soul.
Together I saw them climb the hill, and lo! when they
reached the summit they beheld only the ruins of the Arch-
fiend"s stronghold.
" The Enemy in chains and his habitation demolished! Both
have been wrought by the hand of our God! " cried Whole-soul. "
He hath gotten us the victory, " assented Hypocrite.
" The victory through our Lord Jesus Christ, against whose
kingdom the gates of hell were powerless to prevail, " added
Man-of-the-world.

CHAPTER XXIII
THE OPENING OF THE HEAVENLY GATES

The heavenly chimes are ringing
From the Temple's tower afar,
And the stars are candles shining
Through the Gates of Pearl ajar,
Saying, ' Come where souls find resting,
And earth's heartaches ever cease;
Come toward Heaven, the Holy Cityn
Where the bells are chiming peace ' "
