81. bOrS.

AT a prayer-meeting held at the
southwest corner of Michigan and
Dearborn streets some sixteen years
ago, over which Mr.. Moody presided,
several young people were converted.
AT the close of the regular meeting, a
second meeting was held in the ante
room, the number constituting that
meeting being seven. Three of that
number were Christians; the remain
ing four were promising young men.
Mr.. Moody made an earnest appeal to
them to abandon sin and follow in the
footsteps Of their Savior. He drew
that appeal to a close by suggesting a
covenant to be drawn up, which he
hoped all present would sign. Below
is the covenant and names of the
signers:
COVENANT OF THE SEVEN.
CHICAGO, H., Dec. II, 1880.
In the presence of the same Heavenly
Host who many hundred years ago pro-
claimed the birth of our blessed Savior, we
the subscribers do solemnly promise to
pray. Gaily for each other until the Lord
shall call us home to glory; and that we will
preach Christ and Him cruciaed, and follow
in the footsteps of our dear Redeemer until
we all join that blessed company in the Man.

EAST MrppLHBoRo', Mass, June Q, 1864.
MEssRs. BURNETT & Co.:
3 When my daughters hair came off she had been
afflicted with neuralgia in her head for three years.
She had used, during that time, many powerful APP
plicatons. These, with the intense heat caused by
1907 it all came off and for two years after her head
smooth as her face.
Through the recommendation Of a friend, she was
induced to try your CocoArNE, and .the result was
astonishing She had used half the contents of
bottle before her head was covered with fine young
hair. In four months the hair has grown several
inches in length, very thick soft and fine, and Of
darker color than formerly.
With respect, WIN. S. EDDY.

Young MI. Gadsler has only been
married a week. and yesterday his wife
sent him out to do the marketing. 1t
was Mr.. Gadsler's first experience, and
he put on an expression Ct the most
profound wisdom over everything he
bought. He got roast of beef bigger
than the one the steward Of the Barret
House had just bought, he ordered a
bushel of onions for dinner, and got
two dollars worth of salt; and finally
he wanted gallon of vinegar. The
grocer had some prime cider vinegar
he said. Mr.. Gadsler looked at him
very knowingly, and said he would
just taste it. The grocer handed him
a pint measure with some in. Mr..
Gadsler tasted, screwed up his face,
and handed back the measure, while
he regarded the grocer with a look of
lofty dislain. "You can't play such
stuff as that on me-" he said, sit's
soured." The grocer l,tmbly apollo
gized, and said the thunder must have
done it.-Burlingt0n HACK Eue.

was remarkably brilliant. He was ad-

the more active iron business. He has
been identified with many excellent

claim his attention, Mr.. Hewitt shows
