THE PRAYER MEETING How glad we are that it is still alive! 1 it has weathered all storms and doth I yet survive; Though oft on the verge of total col I lapse, And treated with remedies by various quacks, And called by new names, such as , Midweek meeting, the Wednesday 1 gathering and the Social Greeting. 1 Through epidemics of contagious | diseases, Through spiritual famine and zero j breezes, With temperature low in the cold of the winter, And not very high when the heat did i hinder. Through summer and winter; through sold and heat; Through sunshine and shadow; through rain and sleet, It certainly has had a fine constitution To have borne all this without dissolution. It has passed through it all and doth yet survive. How glad wc are that it's still alive. The Wednesday evening prayer meeting of this week was quite well attended, there being seventeen present in the service. Wo am ghrd the interest is on the increase. The player meetings are being held at outhome during the cold weather. We kindly invite till the neighbors to attend these prapcr meetings in our j home evdfry Wednesday evening. MR. AND MRS. CHAS. ANDREWS, j Geo. H. Bright, Class Leader. j

ERROR IN NAME For some time various mistakes have been made iu the spelling and pronunciation of the name of the Rev. B. N. Covert. The correct spelling has now been learned and everyone is asked to take notice. —e TWO BIG GAMES TOMORROW The athletic hall tomorrow evening will be the scene of two big battles which assures the local fans of plenty of excitement. The feature battle of the evening will be called at 8:30 o'clock between the local high school varsity and the Richmond high school five. The visitors come to this city with the reputation of being the strongest team in their district which means that the locals will have a big job on their hands. The preliminary tomorrow evening will also be worth while, it being played between the Bryant high school bqys and the St. Joe high school five of this city. The St. Joe boys are considerable smaller and greatly overweighed but assure the fans that they will be able to take care of themselves in a satisfactory manner. The first preliminary will be called at 7 o'clock and will be played between the Dogs and Cats, two teams from the local high school.

IT WENT TO THE SPOT Lingering colds and coughs that hang on and wear one out are difficult |to get rid of. but Henry E. Campbell. It. F. D. No. 3, Adrian. Mich., writes: i"l had a bad cought for three years. Tried several cough medicines. Got little relief. I tried Foley's Honey and Tar. It went to the spot. There is no better remedy on the market.” Good for coughs, colds, croup and whooping cough—clears the passages: soothes irritated membranes; stops tickling in the throat. Contains no opiates. Sold everywhere. WHY IT SUCCEEDS Because It’s for One Thing Only,and Decatur People Appreciate This. Nothing can be good for everything Doing one thing well brings success. Doan's Kidney Pills are for one 1 thing only. For weak or disordered kidneys. . A:k your neighbor! Hero is Decatur evidence to prove j their worth. B. R. Farr, 148 N. 2nd St., says: "Doan’s Kidney Pills have always helped me when I have had attacks of kidney complaint. My back ached considerable and I had lumbago ! pains over my kidneys, that made it | hard for me to stoop. My kidneys didn't act right either. Doan's Kid- ' ney Pills soon rid me of the trouble - strengthening tr.y back and ridding me of the pains aud other forms of , I kidney complaint.” Price 60c, at all dealers. Don’t j simply ask for a kidney remedy—get ' Doan's Kidney Pills —the same that 'jMr. Farr had. Foster-Milbura Co., ' Mfrs., Buffalo, N. Y.
