Ma. EprroR: Our series of meetings
have just closed, having continued fifteen
nights and the result was thirty Ave con
versions. I was assisted by Bro. John
Hunt and r. P. Rudder, whose Iabors have
been appreciated. When I commenced
preaching there the state of religion had
gone down to fearfully low degree, but
iatterly very promising Sabbath-school
had been organized there, with 3. F. Sterl-
ing superintendent, q very worthy young
man, and by means employed for maturing,
the field had become already whited to
harvest, and ON our first appointment on
Monday night, of the LIST inst, the house
was crowded. and l don't think ever wit
messed g deeper work of grace than mani
festly per7aded the entire congregation All
denominations united their efforts and the
work went on without hindrance so much
SO, that to witness from five to seven con-
versions on single night was nothing I'M
common. During these glorious seasons |
beheld some as happy souls as we are ever
in the midst of in this world. 1t largely in
creases my desire for the home beyond
am happy to say that the most of the un-
| converted part of my school have been
changed and are among the number of the
converts, and all are in the midst of PROM
Using sabbath-sehool where they may have
/ the necessary training to make them useful
in the divine life. AS there is no church
organization at Midway the converts will
! look ont for homes elsewhere in different
churches. ! expect to commence series
Of meetings at Valley Grove, on Friday
right before Christmas, where was form
erly pastor, and may the Lord continue to
bless our labors in the latter as in the form

That mark the path from the church-yard

From sleep by the Christmas bells and light
Ring sweetly, chimes! Soft, soft, my

Their beds are under the snow.

What are the wraiths of mist
That gather anear the window-pane
Where the winter frost all day has lain?
They are soulless elves, who fain would peer

Ring feetly, chimes Swift, swift, my

They are made of the hooking mist.

Cease, cease, each Christmas bel
Under the holly bough,

Ere the greens were sere last Christmas tide !

A WRONG IDEA,

Many persons having gotten the wrong
idea that hops are Strengthening, have taken
to drinking beer and ale very freely. The
consequence is they feel better for short
time, but when the reaction comes they are
much weaker than before Reader, if you
value life, Lay aside all malt and alcoholic
beverages and put your trust in that tenn
perance preparation of iron and vegetable
tonics called Browns Iron Bitters. It gives
real health and strength to every part of the
body, refreshes the mind, and restores the
nervous system to its proper standard.
Over 1,O0o, 600 bottles have been sold this
year.

DISEASED LUNGS ARE GREATLY ON AN IN
CREASE IN THIS CoUNTRY.-The sudden
changing of weather has done much to give
rise to Consumption. But there are thou
sands of cases who bring it on by their own
imprudence-sueh as wearing damp cloth
ing, aud going, from the warm room into
the cold air, and checking the perspiration,
which causes irritation of the lungs, and
then matter or phlegm will collect, which
nature will try to relieve by coughing il up,
to prevent pustules from forming. If ma
ture does not raise the matter with ease,
and stop this Inflammation, tubercles will
soon form, and consumption will soon fol-
low. ALIENS LUNG BALsAM will cure and
prevent thousands of cases of Consumption
if it is only taken in time.
