Thomas—O'Hair.
Wedding bells rang joyously at the home of Ellsburg O'Hair, of Brick Chapel, on Wednesday after noon, December, 4th. The occasion was the marriage of Miss Gertrude O’Hair to Alva Thomas, of Morton. At 4:30 Miss Zoe Thomas began the rendering of Wyman’s Wedding Bells, and immediately the bridal party entered the parlor, led by the officiating minister Miss Dessie O Hair, sister oi the bride, was bridesmaid, and Mr. Ott Thomas, brother of the groom, was groomsman.The bride was attired in a beautiful white silk trimmed with pearl passementerie. The groom was neatly dressed in black. The bridesmaid wore a white silk similar to that ot the bride, and car ried in her hand a bouquet of cream roses. Immediately after the ceremony, a bounteous supper was spread, after which formal congratulations were given accom panted by many earnest wishes for a happy and prosperous life to
the young couple.
The wedding was private, only the nearest relatives of the bride and groom being invited. However, the secret leaked out, and tour uear friends from Greencastle, “un bibben came,” and their presence added much to the pleasure of the occasion. Mr. and Mrs. Thomas took the evening train for St. Louis where they will spend a few days. The Banner Times wishes them a
life of success.

Going Bark to Christ. Evangelist Boyer’s sermon last night was truly a marvel in its clear presentation of the points of difference between the New Testament church and the churches of today He said “the church of Christ does not have to explain the origin or meaning of its name, as is true of every other religious body. All other names misrepresent. We all believe there is more in the Baptist church than a baptistry, more in the Methodist church than a method. These names are too narrow. This can not be said of the name “Church of Christ.” The Church of Christ stands for a great many things in common with all other churches, such as a belief in God, and Christ and the Holy Spirit, sin, atone ment, redemption, the inspiration of the scriptures, the ordinances of the Lord’s house such as the Lord’s ■upper and Christian baptism. I. The churck of Christ stands for the unity of all of God’s people. This is peculiar to them. Other churches “thank God for divisions.” The apostolic church was a united church and it had power. On Pentecost they were “all with one ac-
cord.”
II The church of Christ does not add another to the already too long list of churches and say “come and join our church and let’s unite.” The creed basis of the New Testament church is not the apostles creed, the Atbanasion creed, the confession of Font, the 39 Articles, the Augsburg confession or the 24 Articles. The creed of the church is personal not doctrinal. -‘These are written that ye might believe in Christ.” The orainances appointed by Christ have been multilated and changed. We seek to restore them just as given by Christ. The Lord’s supper was observed “ on the first day of the week.” The first day of the week comes 52 times a year, not once a quarter. Baptism is unduly emphasized. Nowhere in the Bible are any but penitent believers ever baptized. The church of Christ pleads tor a return to the name and discipline of the New Testament church. Tonight, “How to be Saved and

Holiday Calendar*. The holiday season, when the purse of the people is freely opened, and everyone feels the general good will so universal at that time, is close at hand. The shrewd merchant avails himself of the opportunity to present his patrons with a holiday souvenir, prized for its beauty and elegance, and which will, if in the shape of a Calendar, prove an advertisement of his business throughout the entire bucceeeding year, and therefore a money maker.

Something to pattern after.—When the cold wave struck us Friday, big hearted George Hurst saw the widow of Charles Parrish, a veteran of the 143 Ind. VoL, out in the cold gathering up limbs and brush to try to keep herself and young daughter warm. Her only ■on died last spring with consumption leaving her with only her small pension to support her. When George kIw her gathering limbs he could not stand idly by and do nothing. Wish language that is peculiar to him when he it in earnest he said, “Boys, this won’t do in a Christian coMsaunity; 1 hare two teams, two hands, saw and axes; now, who will help get the widow woman some wood?” Hardly s nun refused. After getting the men the next thing was the timber. He saw Joshua Staples who generously donated it. Tuesday, the time set for chopping, shout twenty men and four teams gathered for the work. It was a frolic for them. They all entered with a spirit, and their hearts were light and happy. The timber fell, the saws run and axes rang. In a little while a team was loaded, then another and other until twenty cords of solid stove and heating wood was in the widow’s yard. When the teams cam* back and reported Mrs. Parrish crying for joy, if possible, it put more nerve in the axes and saws. All were happy. No doubt if the men could have heard the prayers that Christian mother and daughter sent up for those that night that one blacx mark would have been rubbed off that

These ears are the ftnest that have ever been turned out of the Pullman simps, and are duplicates of the magnidcent cars oil the New York and Chicago Limited. They are divided into nine roams, each room containing a double lower and upper berth of the pattern used in the open sleeping car. The rooms are much larger than the staterooms in the largest steamships;, each room being furaished in a different colored tapestry from its neighbor, and containing a wash-stand which ia built into one corner. This wash-stand is arranged so that it is really a receptacle for hats, bonnets and sssaII articles; siso containing a clothes brush, hair brush, comb, etc., and by pulling down the metal handle a large silver wash basin is brought into position, and right above the baton are two faucets, one for hot and the other for cold water. In addition to this ia a faucet connecting with a drinking fountain of ice water. In the other corner of the room is a handsomely cushioned seat which can be turned to one siile, exposing the closet.
