We have announced to the public
that the Blue Seal flour was not made
or put up in any other brand. rms
was our rule, but we have varied it IN
one instance. We have agreed, to
manufacture this flour and allow
Messrs. Cook & Moore to sell under
their private brand, the "Everlight."
So when you get the ''Biue Seal" or
"EverIight" you get the same flour,
and that means that you get the Oery
best flour that is sold4in this market.
Nobody handles the "EVerllght' Du'

GERS handle the "Blue Seal" BE
sure and call for it. If your grocer
happens not to have it make him get
it for you, for he cannot equal it with
any other brand. There is no other
flour in the market lust as goou.
The BluenSeaI is the best, and the

Dir. Lambuth's Interesting Missionary
Lecture.

T..
Lecture.
Rev. DIR. Walter Lambuth, the we'll
known missionary, delivered an adj
dress on the Chrysanthemum Episode
last Sunday morning, and preached a
missionary sermon in the evening oil
the same day, at the Methodist
church.
DIR. Lambuth Is the son of a mis-
sionary and was born in China. HIS
life has been spent in missionary work
in China, and Japan, where he Is
now stationed. He is a man of
marked ability and elOquence. The
congregation were large aud appre-
eiative on both occasions, many peo-
Pile coming in from the country I"
hear Inn, attracted largely by reason
of the fact that he Was to speak par
ticularly of the missionary labors OF
Miss Katie Harlan. DIR. Lambuth
gave gratifying report of her noble
work. The first few months after her
arrival in Japan, she devoted to the
study of the language OF the country.
While thus occupied, there came an
urgent call for a missionary from a
.ity about 300 miles from Kobe, the
Headquarters of the Southern MethO-
dist missionaries. They were uuanle
to send a minister a. they wished. IL
became necessary to secure one from
the United States. How should the
place be held in the meanwhile, was
the question that the missionaries
were unable to answer satisfactorily
At this iuncture Miss Harlan came
forward and volunteered TO go her
self. alone, and hold the place unit
the desired missionary could be sem
ont. The self sacrificing herolsm o
this noble act can hardly be rea'lzed
Already IA converts have been th'
fruit of her labors.
DIR. Iambuth described in graph!
style, some of the most striking physl
cal characteristics OF the Japanese
Empire, the most important epochs II
its history ana the most lnterestln
phases in the life and character oil II
people. a..
The wonderful progress which the
are making in the Introduction oil TN
Western civilization was vlvldl,
brought to the attention of his aud
ence, and the intense desire OF I'll
Japanese for christian preachers an
teachers was shown with force TINS
few men can equal. He. made apoWei
ful appeal to the missionary splrI
. of christian people, and we doubt M
an availing appeal. With the eXampl
of q noble woman who has gone oil
i from our midst and the elcquel
words Of q man of God whose Whoi
life has been a sacrifice to the mi
sionary cause, the result will be
arouse missionary enthusiasm hei
which has never been known DeIor

The Second Presbyterian Church

one of his ablest sermons, from the
text: 1.-THE sting of death is sin; and
the strength of sin 81 the law. But

Christ"
The natural eloquence of the
learned Divine, the clear and logical
developing of the subject from 1.-The
sting of death" &c, to the grand
| climax, "But thanks be to God who
giveth us thesvictory," would at any

intelligent congregation.
The subject however, was singular

upon the natural cllnging to life, thu

by the loneliness of that journey
