HOUSED UP,-For the last three months
a great many people have been housed up,
because they have not felt able to with
stand the stormy winter weather that has
prevailed. But unfortunately the confne-
ment and the close air of modern houses,
during the winter season, is very enervating,
and the system needs help to enable all the
organs to do their proper work. If these
organs have been inactive the consequences
are showing themselves in the bilious condi-
ton of the system, or in constipation of the
bowels or in disorders of the kidneys, with
all the aches and pains that accompany
these complaints. II You are in this condi-
ton from any cause you should make a
faithful trial of that well-known remedy,
Kidney-Wort. 1t acts at the same time ON
the kidneys, liver and bowels, and is, there
fore, especially fitted to correct this torpid
condition of the system.
SEE what is said Of it by those who have
used it, DIR. b. III. Birney, jefferson, Dakota,
says: 81 have used Kidney-Wort in several
cases where it has showed its undoubted
virtues for the cure of diseases for which IL

RJRLE TRANSLATION.

At the Assembly grounds Wednesday
morning Mr.. DuBose addressed the Sunday
school Teachers class on "Bible Transla.
ton and Revision" The following il 0
short synopsis of the lecture;
"The literal translation of the classics
has been found difficult task; and this
difficulty has Increased in the translation OF
the Holy Scriptures on account of the scope
aud variety of its subjects and writings but
the task is now well nigh accomplished.
The four principal translation of the Bible
into English are the Tyndale, Coverdale,
Bishops Bible, and King James Transla-
ton was made then known as the Received
Text. A revision of this translation has
since become an apparent necessity; not
that any doctrine or part has been obscured
but TO correct mistakes of grammar, style
and diction, and to remove some evident
interpretations. Scholars are now in posses
sion of three very ancient manuscripts I'M
known to King James translators, viz:
The Alexandrian Codex, the Vatican Codex
and the Sinaitaeus Codex. This latter was
discovered by Tichendorf about twenty
years ago, and is the oldest manuscript of
the New Testament extart, belonging prob
ably to the Fourth century. These discov-
cries make it possible to construct Greek
text of the New Testament that will give in
every instance the very words of Apostolic
writers.
No man or woman need be afraid to look
into the history of Gods word; none need
be afraid of the Truth, for Goo Himself
has said My Word shall not pass away.

Reecherss Greed.

SO much has been written and pub
lished concerning Beecher's creed,
that we feel justified in giving it a
place in the columns of the Banner,
so that none of our readers need be
behind the times:
The foundation doctrines, as hold
them, are: a personal God, Creator,
and ruler over all things; the human
family universally sinful: the need
and possibility and facts of CONVEX
sion; the divine agency in such a
work; Jesus Christ, the manifesto
ton of God in human conditions
His office in redemption supreme. l
| do not believe in the fall of The hui
man race in Adam, and of course do
not hold that CHESTS work was to
satisfy the law broken by Adam for
all his posterity. The race was not
lost, but has been ascending rapidly
from creation. 1 am in hearty accord
with revivals and revival preaching,
with the educaticg forces of the
church, and in sympathy with all min
listers who, in their several ways, seek
to build up men in the image of Jesus
Christ-by whose faithfulness. gener-
osity and love / hope to be saved and

Baily asked Mr.. Barr II he had exaggerated
the charms OF San Marcos scenery; Mr..
Barr in reply, said the half had not been
told him; that he had travelled over great
part Of the United States, and that even
Central Park ut New York City could show
nothing equal to the San Marcos River

above. He CAME here expecting to remain

w AhhiAuIoh, aug 10 iooo'
ED. FIRE PREss - The work in all
the departments has not been for
years 80 we'll systematized and pushed
as at present. This il IL the COM
ment OF all who have long had bust
ness with pension, patent land, In
dian and other bureaus OF tho gov
eminent service. Methods have been
improved, abuses eradicated, barna-
Giles have been scaped OF; compe'
tent men have been appointed in
place OF drones and shirks new life,
new energy, and old fashioned hon
esty have been infused into the com
plicated and labyrinthine system
through which the affairs OF 10000
900 people are administered.
The wonderful changes which can
be effected in a government Office by
the introduction OF the thoroughly
business methods in place OF the
methods formerly in vogue, is strik-
ingly apparent in the pension office
ut this time. The working force OF
the bureau il ITO short of the full
number employed under the old ad.
ministration. Besides this, 2l4 OF
the clerks are absent on their annual
leaves, and there 30 absent, sick. Not
withstanding this decrease in the
working force, amounting altogether
to 355 clerks, the amount of work be-
ing done at the present time, without
any heightened hours or overworking
of the force, is MS large as was done by
the full staff of clerks under commits.
sioner Dudley, and il is rapidly aug
menting. Recently there have been
one or two clerks, both democrats and
republicans, dismissed, because they
relied too much on their influence
and not enough upon their record
but beyond this there have been but
few changes recently.
The loud and braggart gIorifica-
ton of the republican party, when
the count of money in the treasury
department showed no loss, has not
yet ceased to reverberate in the land /;
but that is not the way the truly good
officials of the truly good party have
replenished their exchequers. Inves
LEGATIONS now pending, and others
that the country will hear offsoon,
will convince the most skeptical that
an examination of the books and an
elimination of the the crooks have
come none too soon. The republic
ans are trying to take political COM
fort from the fact, as they put it, that
the implicated officials who were late
ly dismissed from the coast-survey Of
fee were all democrats. This is not
true; but even if it were SO, it is not
easy to see how the cause Of repub-
licanism is helped any by the discov-
cry. The fact remains, that what
ever irregularities existed were con-
tinued under republican rule, and
that it remained for democratic adj
ministration to expose them, and ap-
ply the necessary corrective. The
country is not so much concerned just
now about the politics of individual
rascals as it is in having rascalities
stopped. 1t is upon the latter point
that the record will be made up.

The summer normals had an at
tendance this year of 1914, as against
1870 last year. Certificates granted
were Oh, falling off of 1873 from
last year, on account of more rigid
examinations. Nearly two-thirds of
those who passed the examinations
of last year took tirst-class certificates.
This indicates very superior degree
of scholarship, as the examinations
for this class were very rigid, extend
ing TO the higher mathematics, and
requiring full 80 per cent OF ques-
tons correctly answered to pass.
The benefits of the summer normal
rs an efficient ait, to training of our
public school teachers was never
more fully demonstrated than during
this summers course. Not least
smong its benefits will be the raising
of the standard of scholarship among
the state teachers, which will neces-
sarily be followed by the raising of
the school standard. Well trained
and educated teachers will not be
satisfied with low grade Of scholar

Rev. Edward Everett Hale, of Bos-

ing on Parrish Work in Cities, speak
ing especially of the use of the church

main open not simply three hours on
Sunday, but on all the days and
nights of the week, for exercises and
gatherings which would promote cul-
ture and sociability as we'll as relig-
ious life. The church should hold

the university, of Plainfeld, N. j., who
explained the system of instruction,
which embraces all the branches of
college study, and is designed to as
sist people who are not able to at

a full college course at their homes by

teachers, either in four years or six
