eooa words for a Good Thing.

The papers are so full of exaggerations about all sorts of things, that it is hard to tell what to believe. Yet all things are not hum- bugs, nor are all statements lies Dr. David Kennedy's "Favorite Remedy" is exactly what it claims to be- and deserves the praises that are showered upon it from all who have used it. Hear word from MT. Israel H. Snyder of Saugertles, N. Y. He says My little daughter was covered with Salt Rheum from head to foot. 'Favorte Reme- dy' cured her altogether and the disease has never since appeared. This was two years ago." Such words go to the point. Get "Fayorite Remedy" of your druggist or write to the Doctor at Rondout, N. Y.

 The band entertainments are progressing finely, and will probably be produced on the ,venings of Dec. 22nd and 23rd. The concert, :or the first evening, which is being arranged oy Mir. W. W. Underwood, will be rare mu ncal feast by the best talent available-and y the way, there is some frst-class talent ,ere, too, as everybody knows = consisting of vocal and instrumental music, violin and cor net solos, etc with selections by the band Che dramatic entertainment on the second evening will be enjoyed by all lovers of fun, nd large attendance is assured.
 The Rev. Mir. Mackey's sermon in the Methodist church next Sunday evening, will probably be most interesting one. It will oe addressed especially to Honest Doubters, md as MT. Mackey invariably deals with such subjects both without bitterness and without ,eating around the bush, some pretty snug
 ruths may be expected. The text selected. s John VII: 17:-"If any man will do his will, he shall know of the doctrine, whether it be of God, or whether I speak of myself. <" As an introduction, Mir. Mackey gave last Sunday night his definition of the term 'hon- est doubter," and also those who doubG, and yet are not honest doubters. Among the lat ter he classed those who, with fixed deter- nination to remain doubters, seek to fortifY themselves against the truth by reading Paine, Voltalre and such authors in search of argu- nents against the bible those who read the bible extensively, over and over again, in search of contradictions, deliberately passing over ten thousand harmonies to find two pas sages in discord As reasonably might man shun the sunlight by going into the cellar and digging deeper and deeper into the earth, and then doubting the existence of the sunlight because Il can't find any down here, and I'm digging all the tlme." Such men are doubt CTS, but they are not honest doubters. The speakers conception of an honest doubter is, one who, having surrendered himself to the evidences of religion, finds that it does net fulfill all that is claimed for it-that it does not pass the. test. The sermon next Sunday evening will be worth listening to-, and those who are sceptically inclined, and yet, as they boast, ''open to conviction" can show their honesty in no better way than by attending, if for no other purpose than to lis ten to healthy deviation from the average tone of orthodox sermons.

Presidents Message.

The last session of the 46th Congress com- menced last Monday, and the President sub. mtted his last annual message. The mos, notable thing about it IS his change of policy in regard to the South. Howard the South the Springfield Republican says, 'he is un- expectedly and unwisely stalwart upon civil service reform he is still gallantly strenuous, while on fnance.he takes dubious attitude in favor of larger silver dollar. In regar' 1 to the South, he swings over to the Boutwel policy to degree which will disappoint many of his warmest supporters. He thinks some ''irm and well considered action" is necessa- ry on the part of Congress to reduce the op- position in the South to the operation of Jht constitutional amendments, although he ad- mits that such opposition under his own pa | cifc policy has diminished. He also calls up on the House of Representatives and the Sen. | ate in judging of the qualifications of theil own members to see to it that every case o' violation of the letter or spirit of the 18th amendment be thoroughly investigated and to take care that no benefit shall accrue to any person or party therefrom. We regard this attitude as unfortunate mistaken, and likely to prove inauspicious to Gar6eld's administra tion. A general exhortation to Congress tt revise the lists of southern senators and mem- bers upon the assumption of violations of the spirit of the constitutional amendments is mis chievous at this time. It is not needed. There is no danger that partisan feeling, always stronger in Congress than in the country, will not act promptly to unseat every member oi the House whose title to his seat can be proven invalid, while the presidents attitude seems to invite procedures against state Leg islatures and senators chosen by them or vague grounds of not conforming to th spirit of the constitution He recommends that the silver dollar should be made equal in value to the g Id dollar, and that Gen. Grant should be made Captain General.
