Congressman Bill McAleer has
been defeated for denomination in
Phila. This did not please Colonel
Bill Singerly who had hoped to work
his harmony scheme. Bill No. got
what he deserves. He was some
thing and he was nothing. He claim
ed to be Democrat and a Republi- =
can ut the same time. Bill No. 9 is
furiously mad. The one Bill is past
defeat and the other one is expecting
it.

over the doctrine of "Divine heal
ing and "Sanctification." 1t ap-
pears that some of their pastors,
such as Revs. T.. G. Pauling and A.
$. Barner advocated the idea that
their parishioners should cure all
manner of diseases by faith and
prayer. The committee from the
church denounced these men as
heretics.
The moon was full on Saturday
night and had an eclipse on it-so
were n good many fellows in this
place full and had an eclipse over
their eyes.-Wc VeytOacn JOundi.
We thought the Lord treated His
people all alike, but since he gave
us the eclipse on Friday evening
and the McVeytown people one day
later, it seems such is not the case
or perhaps His people don't live al
McVeytown.
