An oysrcoat Thief.

There is an overcoat thief prowling
about Portland and it behooves gentle
men to be careful where they put their
outside garments. Sunday Rev. Mr.
Hughes, of Chestnut Street church, and
the sexton of the same church had their
overcoats stolen. Later, probably the
same thief took the overcoat belonging
and Rev. Canon Sills's coat, which the
latter had left in the vestry of St. Paul's
where he had been officiating.

Honest Ensugh to Conrs.. IL.

DR.. Hamilton, OF Tiffin, Ohio, writes:
Had very peculiar case OF la grippe
with high fever, raging headache,
bones aching, watery eyes, with a com
plication OF throat trouble different
from anything [ ever saw before,
which caused me considerable uneasi-
ness for several days, as it did not
seem to yield in the least to any treat
ment | could devise. Unknown to me
neighbor brought in a bottle of
Persian Cough Syrup and administered
a dose and after several doses was
greatly relieved. Expectoration
became free, headache relieved,
breathing free and easy, temperature
reduced, and at my next visit found my
patients condition much improved
l was then shown the medicine and
told what had been done. l simply
had TO acquiesce, as an honest man
should, and say, go on, and after using
two bottles she was cured. After u
careful analysis of your medicine must
confess | never saw its equal and its
merits are simply wonderful-the peer
OF all. Sold by A. r. Champney.

The New Church.

We were little mistaken in saying
the main entrance to the new Presby-
terrain church was on ELM street. 1t
is the Second street entrance which
opens into the vestibule from which
are stairs leading to the gallery also
an entrance to the auditorium. The
church was well filled last Sunday, and
Rev. Adams sermon was full of thank
fulness for the gift of God, through
His people, of this house of worship.
His words showed plainly that his
heart was full of gratitude to all who
in any way assisted in the work.
AS we intimatcd last week, the
acoustics of the building are excellent.
The slightest sound can oe heard in all
parts of the ediIice and there is no echo
so frequently heard in large buildings.
Although the services were attended
by many people who were non-members,
there seemed to be IL feeling of pleasure
among all present over the fact that
the work had been accomplished and
that once more this congregation were
permitted to worship in IL house suit
able for the purpose.
