Condition Of the Am. f. Church.


Mn. EDIron IF you will allow me space
in your valuable paper to give q short sum-
mary Of the condition of the African Meth
odist Church OF this city, I shall bo obliged
to you. In September 1884, I took charge
Of the above named church, and found IL
numbering @ membership Of fifty souls.
The condition Of the church was poor both
temporal and spiritual and I might also
add that the church was financially om-
borrossed A debt of nine hundred dollars
hung over the church and is yet unpaid
The membership is small and the people
poor They do willingly all they can TO
meet the expense Of the church, and rs
they have failed in this it makes it a known
fact that they are unable to meet their in-
debteduess. They are not able 10 give the
pastor living support, and, while he has a
family to support, he has been os lenicut
with them as he could under the condition
of affairs We are very willing to make
sacrifices to pay our debt, if at the same
time our children be not starving. A large
! Ntol anu not hple 10 meet our current eA-

win the people-tho good citizens Of
Hillsboro-aid us as much as they can in
the payment of our honest indebtedness,
should we be compelled to call upon them ?
Our church is freely opened to all who
may desire to come in and hear the gospel
Of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ
Come in, hear, believe and be saved. The
gospel must be preached If our debt
usurp our church, We will still 60 on in the
strength of our God believing that Heaven
will bless the poor May we not depend
upon you to assist us in paying our debt ?
God will bless you for your good deeds.
My family depends upon me for support,
aud though the church has paid me all il
could, it will not and has not supported my
family. If il were not for the assistance OF
my sons, could not remain in this church
or this charge.
I am very truly your obedient want

II want to get rid Of the MOLE" he
said, when young doctor came out and
asked him what the matter was.
"Step right in, and I'll do it," the
doctor responded, as he reached for
large mahogany box containing a pol
ishej electrical machine, with insulated
wire running from the battery TO neat
carved handle. The doctor sat the pa
tient down in an easy chair, threw his
head back, and dressed the mole deity
with local anssthetic that gradually
bcnumbed the nesh until it wal robbed
OF all sensitiveness. Then the doctor
ntteG tiny strip of platinum into the
handle and turned on the full force oi

with 5 pure white heat in II twinkling.
The doctor drew it slowly and carefully

Of the intense heat through his cheek,

Advice 10 Smokers.

The assertion being very general that
the cancer from which General Grant
Il suffering was caused by excessive
smoking, many veteran smokers have
reduced their daily consumption Of the
fragrant weed, and an evident spirlt Of
inquiry has been set snost ~ 10 the Of
fseti Of the psisOaous nicotine. Advise
to smokers is generally 8 ready somms-
dity, but NE commend TO intslligsnt
ones these simple preeepts, which Mr..
Dana, OF the New York Sun, thinks are
too gsed to keep:
In the nr.t place, smoke light-eolored
cigars. They are less strong than the
darker shades. Select the boxes mark
ed Clsro and Colorado Clsro, and avoid
those marked Asduro or even Colorado
Naduro. ...
Secondly. never smoke on IN empty
,tonsch. Smoke after luncheon, or
after dinner or supper, but do not
smoke long after ysu have taken food,
or early In the msrning. 4 light cigar
sn.rs hearty meal frequently sids d.
scstion, but II sss smokes jus, before
eating ths appetite will be lesssned and
fosd will lose its relish.
Thirdly, do not smoke the whole OF
ID, cigar. Sacrifice . fosrth or hftb,
because in the stump the poisonous oil
Or sisetine of tobacco becomes coDcen-
trSted.
Fourthiy, 10 net smoke more than
thre. or four cigars = day. And In the
last place, after smoking cleanse the
teeth, and thus avsis their diicolorstion
and imprssnstion with the fumes Of the
tobacco. A moderate and careful use
Of tobacco doe. net harm the teeth, but
when excessive it causes the suBs 70

with Tie blseheninE oil Of the leaf.
These rules srs few ssd simple, but
