er, were al! present. There were present also Mrs. A. C. McKinsey, of

Thorntown, Ind., conference secretary,

and Luella M. Mastrees, M. D., of Thorntown, medical missionary to Foochow, China, besides delegates from

Mount Pleasant, South Bend, Laporte, Plymouth, Kewanna, Rochester, Delphi, and other places. These visitois were

gladly reeeivtd and hospitably enter tained by the people of Argos.

Such a meeting is for the transaction

of much routine business relating to

the work of the society in this large

district, and, also, especially for drill in

the methods of practical work required of the society. Very excellent papers

were read by Mrs. Gould, of Kewanna,

and Mrs. Wallace, of Rochester.

Mrs. L. S. Smith, of Delphi, district

delegate to the Northwestern branch

meeting recently held in Appleton, Wis., and which represents the four states of

Indiana, Illinois, Wisconsin and Michi

delightful report of that great meeting.

a year or two at home in post graduate

Harret t Law Constitutional. The Barrett law was Thursday held

to be constitutional by three Marion county superior court judges, sitting together, Judges Carter, McMaster and

Leathers, in a decision handed down

overruling the demurrers of the defendants in the Irvington street improve

ment cases of Indianapolis. The constitutionality of the Barrett law, which was attacked so far as the lower courts are concerned was thus upheld.

AT THE CHURCHES.

PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH. The attendance upon all services was

exceedingly encouraging, and the day

apparently was spent with much profit.

The pastor preached from the words,

"I can do all things through Chri6t

which strengtheneth me." Tne thought

is that he who abideth in Christ is equal to all things. Man laboring with the strength which comes from abiding in Christ has accomplished great things,

both in his own heart and in the world around him. The power of Christ at

work in men's lives is the great leveler.

It digniGes labor, betters the material

condition of the lowly classes, makes it

possible for tho6e pressed down to rise and convinces mankind that in God's

sight at least the soul of one man is as

precious as the soul of another. This power working in man's heart makes of

him the hero as described by the great

Apostle Paul, who knows how to be

abased and how to abound everywhere

and in all things. So it doth appear

what is the mission and purpose of the

christian rehorion. it is to bring the

world to the feet of Jesus and in so do

ing give man a personal victory over

himself. It will help him bear his bur

dens, endure his pains, overcome his enemies, and as well achieve success

and enjoy prosperity.

The evening sermonwas upon

Thomas as the doubter. Many prac

tical lessons were suggested by the

theme.

The Sunday-school wa3 more largely

attended than usual. These were a

number of star classes. The interest

was good. Plans wer considered by

the superintendent and teachers look

ing to earnest and aggressive work along

certain lines. This is a good sign the

work will be done.

Death of Florence Runt. Florence A. Rust died at 5 o'clock Sunday night of congestion of the liver. She was the daughUr of Charles Rust who lives a mile and a half northeast of Donaldson, and was 1G years and 13 days old when she died. She was one of West township's brightest and most promising girls. She graduated from the district school last spring and was

There were large congregations at the Methodist church Sunday at all the services. The quarterly love feast was

a season of grace. The pastor was as

8isted in the public service by Revs. Smith and King. The sermon was from Pea. 40: 2, 3. A picture of a man

himself, God brought him out. He goes to tee bottom of the deepest pit

and brings to the top. There is nothing

superficial about God's salvation. lie

to sold rock. He becomes established in righteousness. He is God-directed. He has a new heart, consequently a new song. His is a joyful salvation. The sacrament of the Lord's supper was administered after the sermon to a

large number of communicants.

There were more than two hundred at the Sunday-school. Prof. Redd's lecture class has grown too large for the Sunday-school room and has taken

up quarters up stairs. The Epworth league devotional meet

ing was largely attended. Mrs. Dr. Brcwn led the meeting as though she

had prepared for it. The evening service was well attend ed decidedly the largest since confer ence.

UNITED BRETHREN. The day being fine it was a pleasure to meet in the sanctuary. The morning theme was based upon Matt. 10: 18. "Upon this rock shull I build my church and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it." There is a difference of opinion as to what the rock is, whether Peter, or his confession that Jesus was the Christ, or whether it be Christ himself. But this much is sure that the church is impregnable and al) its foes witbin or adversaries without have been unable to shake it and through ill the

I v t St

ages the kingdom 01 uoa has ueen marching steadily forward.

The text at night was 1 John 5: 17. All unrighteousness is sin." Sin is a

violation of God's law. All have sinned and come short of the glory of God. Our sins are like so many debts of which God keeps an account and will call us to a settlement. The consequences of sin is death but through God's

gracious provisions we may be absolved

from our sins and saved from their

fearful consequences.

A good interest was shown in the

Sunday-school and in all the services.

Next Sunday is announced as Rally

Day in the Sunday-school at which time

in addition to the regular lesson there

will be recitations by some of the

scholars.

THE SECOND ENGINE.

V ......

DI

in CI

Extra Engines are 1'hh1 on Steep Grade by Mont Kailway Companies. All the larger railroads use an extra

engine to help heavily loaded trains up

steep grades. Through mountainous country it is impossible for one engine to pull a load up the inclines.

A number of companies are now en

deavoring by a new survey to avoid the

hills, and will make a new road bed to

do away with this extra expense and

loss of valuable running time. Year in and year out the second engine has to be employed to assist in taking the load up the grade. This help does not make the one locomotive any stronger. Every time the grade is reached the wheels refuse to work, and more strength must be employed to carry the heavily loaded freight to its destination. The only way to abolish the expense is to remove the cause, make a new survey, and go round the hills. This is logic. For years some people have been drugging the 6tomach, with a view to assisting that organ to digest the food. After every meal a dose of some concoction is taken to help the digestion of the food and to relieve the suffering caused by indigestion. It has been found, to the sorrow of these unfortunate creatures, that the use of the drug, which acts only as a stimulant, did not make the stomach any more independent than before, but on the other hand, produced a weakened coddition of the digestive organs and the dose had to be increased from time to time. Every time the grade was reached, the stomach refused to do its work unaided and the poor victim became a slave to a drug. As in the example of the engine, remove the cause. Place the stomach in a natural, healthy condition and it will work as nature intended. The first cause of dyspepsia is a weakened and impoverished state of the blood. Make the blood pure, and the liver active, and there will be no Buffering from dreaded dyspepsia. Knox Stomach Tablets are a new combination ot thoroughly tried and tested remedies that purify the blood, rlace the liver and stomach in an active natural, and healthy state. They cure dyspepsia and all forms of stomach troubles by removing the cause. A single box, containing fifty tablets, wi'l be worth morethan gold to the sufferer. This new remedy builds up the system and makes of invalids strong, healthy men and women. Knox Stomach Tablets are sold by druggist at fifty cents a box. If your druggist does not sell them, send your address and that of the dealer with fifty cents to the Knox Chemical Co., Battle Creek, Mich., and a box will be sent postpaid. Notice. 1 have determined to remain in Plymouth, and m old clients and friends will lind me in the Wheeler block fully prepared to do any kind of law business.
