Yet, concerning the multiplicity of natural phenomena open to man's investigation, direct revelation does not always specifically speak. The scientist, patient and painstaking, is earnestly at work striving to solve some of the problems on

which but little light has been thrown. The instance in point is an admirable illustration of a great truth uttered by inspiration, and of its subsequent acceptance on the basis of scientific discovery and deduction.

SOMETIME, SOMEWHERE! (For the Improvement Era).

Unanswered yet? The prayer your lips have pleaded, In agony of heart these many years? Does faith begin to fail, is hope departing, And think you all in vain these falling tears? Say not the Father has not heard your prayer; You shall have your desire, sometime, somewhere!

Unanswered yet? Though, when you first presented This one petition at the Father's throne, It seemed you could not wait the time of asking,

So urgent was your heart to make it known. Though years have passed since then, do not despair, The Lord will answer you sometime, somewhere!

Unanswered yet? Faith cannot be unanswered. Her feet are firmly planted on the rock: Amidst the wildest storms, she stands undaunted, Nor quails before the loudest thunder-shock. She knows Omnipotence has heard her prayer, And cries, "It shall be done, sometime, somewhere!" —J. H. Ward.
