"WON AT DEST" WHEN SHE THINKS OF OTHERS' NEEDS New York Police Solve Murder MRS. FRANK LAND RETIRES FROM BOARD OF SCIENCE SOCIETY

To a large assembly, of women yesterday at St. Paul's Episcopal church, Dr. Mallett preached on the subject, -Woman at Her Best." "When Is woman at her best? When she Is occupied In - olng for others, when she is forgetful of self and thinks only of the needs of others. Every office is dignified when graced by the touch of a woman who Is prompted by a deep religious spirit Woman is by nature religious. An Irreligious woman is a monstrosity."The missioner- urged mothers to study their children at each successive stage of their growth. "The boy of eight or nine is not the same boy be was at four or five." ' To Illustrate this he told the story of a good devoted mother who always said to her boy the last thing, "Goodnight, toy precious lamb." One ntght when the boy was about nine years old, after his mother had used the same formula the little fellow said, "Mother, don't call me "lamb call me billy goat.' " Thus Is it that the child Is ever

changing, making It impossible to lay down an iron rule to go by. Woman Is at her best when she can get so close to the sufferings of others that she feels them as if they were her own sufferings. Although weather, conditions greatly interfered with the attendance at night, a largo and a most appreciative congregation was present. The missloner's subject was, "The-Literary and Devotional Value of the Bible." After showing forth its value as a literary study, he laid stress on its use devotionally. "The Bible, not one book, but a library of books, containing history, poetry, from which all the great

nofts have drawn their inspiration.

The preacher urged that the direct-

Ions given in the Collect for the second

Sunday in Advent be followed literal

ly. That Is, that we should literally mark, and read and learn. Otherwise we lose the force of the mission of the Bible to mankind, 1. e. Ood's word to

the world.

SAY LYNCH

Continued From Page .One "Lynch will not carry a township in Wayne county; It is also apparent that he will lose his - own county.

as follows: "With a unification of the Repub

lican party in Wayne county as the result of the 1914 contest, at this hour with practically the united support of

former Progressives in that county and elsewhere in the district, my friends and neighbors who have shown their confidence In me in this county of Henry will be prqud to knov that Wayne county will give me in this primary election her vote by a handsome majority. I will carry Wayne county in this nomination. Inquire of Anybody. "Anyone that doubts this and who wants to know the exact truth can very easily phone or visit Cambridge City, Hagerstown, Greensfork, Webster, Bethel, Whitewater or, last and by no means least, inquire of almost any citizen in Richmond and this Statement will be confirmed. "I ask my friends and neighbors in Henry county on March 7 to speak their kindly wishes for me through their ballots and with a large major

ity here and with Wayne county Ainlted in its support the contest for Congress In the fall of 1916 in this District as between the Republican candidate and

the Democratic candidate will -have

been practically settled through theLre-

est counties of the district, adequately supported by the majority which I will

receive in the counties where I campaigned most in 1914, the counties of

Franklin, Shelby, Rush, Fayette, Hancock and Union. In these counties I have in this campaign yisited every place that I visited in 1914 and have

renewed . my acquaintances made in

that campaign and as they supported me in 1914, these same good . friends say there is no reason why they should not support me' in 1916," :. ,

FIRST DOSE ENDS INDIGESTION, HEARTBURN, OR GAS ON STOMACH. The question as to how olng yoi are going to continue a sufferer from indigestion, dyspepsia or out-of-order stomach is merely a mater of how soon you begin taking Tonoline Tabs. People with week stomachs should take Tonoline Tablets occasionally, and there will be no more indigestion, no feeling like a lump of lead in the stomach, no heartburn, sour risings, gas on stomach, or belching of undigested food, headaches, dizziness or sick stomach; and besides, what you eat will not ferment and poison your breath with nauseous odors. All these symptoms resulting from a cour, out-of-order stomach and dyspepsia are generally relieved five minutes after taking Tonoline Tablets. Go to your druggist and get a $1 box of Tonoline Tablets and you will

always go to the table with a hearty

appetite, and what you eat will taste

good, because your stomach and intes

tines will be 'lean and fresh, and you will know there are not going to be any more bad nights and miserable days for you. Tonoline tabs freshen

you and make you feel like life is

worth living. For sale by M. J. Quig-
