The Week OF PRAYER.

The week of prayer as set apart by the
Evangelical Alliance is at hand, but 1t is
certainly not greeted by the churches
now with the interest which it once
awakened. ltno longer means great over
flowing assemblies, men and women
crowding eagerly in, as If to share in a
common joy; the words or praise rising
from thousand voices; the prayers of
earnest and devout men; the commun-
ings by the way under the conscious in
fluence of the Holy Ghost, and the JOY
of harvest as men told of Gods gracious
power was affecting in places far and
near All this is gone. Perhaps 1t could
not be perpetuated, in the power OF its
early days. We may regret this, and
some may mourn over 1t as a sign of de-
clining piety, or of waning faith in the
power of prayer.
Give the week place in your services
IL you can. Gather those who love Christ
with you, or go where they are praying.
Shut out the world with a determined
hand Lift up the heart and voice to
gether. Who knows whether the set
time to favor Zion may not be Gomez
The First Nj. E. Church. Rev. w. l..
Mcdowell, pastor, will begin next week
a series of religious services which every
one should attend. The Presbyterian
Church being without pastor at this
time there will be no services at this
church except their regular weekly pray
er meeting, and the members of that
church should attend the services at the
other churches, during this week OF
prayer.

Queer worlds Queer reoplei Here are
men and women by thousands suffering
from all sorts of diseases, bearing all
manners of pain, spending their all on
physicians and getting no better, but
rather worse" when right at hand
there's remedy which says it can help
them because it's helped thousands like
them. Another patent-medicine adver-
tisement,' you say. Yes-but not of the
ordinary sort. The medicine is DR..
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, and
it's different from the ordinary nostrums
In this
1t does what it claims to do, or it
costs you nothingl
The way Is this: You pay your drug
gist $1.00 for bottle. You read the d.
rections, and you follow them. You get
better or you don't. If you do, you buy
another bottle, and perhaps another. If
y don't get better, you get your money
back. And the queer thing is that so
many people are willing to be sick when
the remedy's so near at hand.
