Lincoln and Ills Power. IRev. Dr. Gladden. at Chicago,1

We who watched Lincoln during his prssi- dency found him, month by month, worthier of trust, more deserving of horror. His con- sscration to the cause of his country was as perfect as that of any martyr who ever lived. He kept in touch with the people. He knew what they were thinking about, and he took them into his confidence. But there WAS much he did not tell, which has come to light within the past few months, and which makes him even greater than we ever thought him. We did not know with what marvellous diplomacy he kept the warning clements about him at peace, and his great name gains new luster with every revela- tion. Steadily he led the people on and on, out of the gloom of disaster and doubt, up to the summits of victory. All the world hailed him as the man of men. Was there ever an hour when he seemed go great, so good, as when he stood on the steps of the White House and answered in simple words war was over? Had we eueried what gave him his power we would have found that the people believed in him and trusted him be- cause he was honest and true, because they could understand him. He had 8 marvellous art of putting things. His words were put together with masterly skill, but they were also luminous with perfect sincerity. Then his magnaminity drew the people to him; his tenderness was one of the sources of his power and the foundation on which the whole character was built; the very sub stance of which it was compact was fidelity, absolute fidelity to truth. In morals he was a thorough going idealist. The deepest se- cret of Abraham Linceln's power over men was his ethical thorou1hness

The Indian Terri tory is near by, where there is employed large number of brave and hardy men as Deputy United States Marshals who appear periodically in the largest city most con- venient to their working place, so that Wichita is often called upon to entertain visitors of almost as much notoriety as ''BilIy, the kid," or Jesse James.

 text: s'To whom shall we go?" Among otn-
 CT things the speaker said:
 This is the question of the ages. It is
 spiritual question and involves the peace or
 the soul, God is essential to human life, and men feel the need of something outside
 of themselves;and everywhere there IS an Mo ar ticulated cry, snaothered prayer, 1o whom shall we go2" and ''Shsll we go to an- cient philosophys" Ancient philosophy Is embodied in the one work: Plato. What does Plato offer uss Plato felt that his mis- sion was to draw the Athenian mind away from the deeting and uncertain, and so lead men to the contemplation of an eternal truth the supremely good. But he mourned the inability of mere human teaching to stem the current of evil and save tihe young men from ruin. Men cannot rise to purity alone. Vlr- tue is not natural. It comes only by dl- ture? To some people this panacea for all the ills of life. do not say word against culture. I love the beautiful in architecture, in art. in all things. The truly beautiful is reflection of heaven. But cnl- ture does not suffice. It cannot go deep
 
 And with all our philosophies and culture men everywhere are crying: .'To whom shall we go2'' "Shall we go to Christianity? Christianity is Christ and Christ is Person. What is Christ more than Plato? Christ proposes to conquer this world by love; and to do what Plato failed to do. Christ new- makes men. Men can only become good by destroying the evil that is in them. He made the leper clean. He opened the eyes of the blind. He cast out unclean spirits He made men happy for he made them holy.

CATARRH TO CONSUMPTION.

Catarrh in it's destructive force stands next to and undoubtedly leads on to consumption. It is therefore singular that those afflicted with this fearful disease should not make 1t the object of their lives to rid themselves of it. Deceptive rsne dies conceded by ignorant pretenders to medical Knowledge have weakened the confidence of the great majority of sufferers in all advertised reme dies They becoms resigned to life of misery rather than torture themselves with doubtful palli atives.
 But this will never do. Catarrh must be met at every stage and combatsd with all our might In many cases the disease has assumed dangerous symptoms. The boHes and cartilage of the nose, the organs eff hearing, of seeing and of tasting so affected as to be useless the uvula so elongated, the throat so unframed and irrtated to produce constant and distressing cough.
 Sanford's Radical Cure meets every phase of Ca tarrh from simple head cold to the most loath- and destructive stages It is local and const tutional. Instant in relieving, permanent in cur ing, safe economical and nevertailing.
