MEDICAL CARD.
DR.. C. M. Williams,
pscycEopATTc PHYSICIAN,

:" "OULD respectfully, announce to the sick
w and afflicted, that he will devote his per-
sonal attention, and the results of long expert
ence to the treatment of those who may be suf-
lering from organic imperIectiOns and Chronic
Diseases DIR. Williams claims especial skill in
treating all forms of disease peculiar to the Fe-
male constitution, one of the most distressing
and depressing is Prolapsus of the Uterus, with
which most American women are more or less
magical and mysterious agencies, but to effect a
cure in Harmony with natures laws and the rem
edy dictated by common sense. BY this New
Method the muscles of the abdomen are restored
to a healthy tone, the internal machinery is brO't
into proper position, and the organs resume a
healthy functional action. 1t takes but few
treatments to cure the worst cases. A single
treatment often effects permanent cure.
No Calomel. No Poisonous Drugs. No Abdom- =
porary relief, but aggravate the trouble in the
end. No loss of time while under treatment
Remedies agreeable to the taste, removing the
source of suffering at without the least harm
or inconvenience to the system. And when
cured, the patient will also have learned how to
keep we'll. But there is one disease to which in
dividualS of both sexes are liable in medical
medicine Known to medical science, for which
DIR. w Williams New mode of treatment seems to
be a specific. 1t arrests at once the upward ten
dency of the nerve force and wards of the fit, and
| if followed up effects a lasting cure. Where all
| medicines are confessedly pOwerless to afford re-
lief this will succeed il the disease has not pass
ed to the incurable stage. Previous to this stage
es will be made for examination without treat
| ment. Terms cash but always reasonable.

WEDNESDAY Aug. 27, 8 am.
After devotional exercises, the follow
ing topic was taken up: "The family-its
religious mission;" led by L. f. Drake.
The speaker referred to the marriage VOW,
and the duties this VOW creates between
the husband and wife. The husband prom
ises to love, comfort, honor. provide, and
care for in sickness and in health, and to
forsake all others. etc. The wife promises
to love, honor, obey, etc. st. Paul says:
Let the wife be subject to her husband
in everything.'' Husbands are to render
to the wife due benevolence." Husbands
are to love their wives, and be not bitter
against them.''
Parents are to provide for their children.
''If a man provide not for woman. specially
for those of his own house, he hath de-
MED the faith and is worse than an inf
del.''
To educate them, etc; to correct them.
"He that spareth the rod bateth his son
but he that loveth him chasteneth him be-
times"
Children are to render due obedience
''Children obey your parents in the Lord,
for this is right
They are to honor their parents. Hon
or thy farther and MOTHER etc.
The religious mission of a family is to
spread Scripture holiness in the family,
and to be light unto their neighbors; and
no family can do this successfully without
daily family prayer. Pious children are q
blessing to the world; but wicked children
are curse, etc.
