Brown was going to Boulder this week
but he received word that the minis
ters would postpone their meetings one
week and, with the consent OF Butte.
thus gave him another week in Ana
conda- The Butte pastors left the
matter for Mr.. Brown to decide and he
himself left IL to the meetings OF yes
terday. The decision, by a large ma
jority. was that he should remain In
this city another week.
About 700 men attended the after
noon meeting for men only and in the
evening the house was filed to its ut
most capacity. The rear of the hall
was occupied by men standing and
more were turned away. unable to get
inside the hall.
Mr.. Brown labored under the disad-
vantage of hoarseness and bad cold.
but said he would do the best he could
and God never asked anyone TO do
better than that
The sermon was founded upon the
story of Naaman. the leper. and his
cleansing. 1t was brought about by
the captive maid, who was not
ashamed TO own her God and tell or
the wonders he had done. Not every
Christian to-day has the heroism OF
the captive maid. There are more
church members. people who belonged
To the churches and were active MEM
bers down East. than there are within
the churches of this city to-day.
Leprosy is a loathsome disease, typi-
cal of sin. II is contagious and sani-
tary measures have been adopted in

apart from the world, not only those In
whom the disease could be seen, but
those whose parts were covered by
clothing.
Those able TO conceal 1t were the
most dangerous. and ii is so with sin;
those concealed are the most deadly.
Naaman did not want to wash in the
river Jordan, as the prophet directed;
he had his own wa4 of thinking how
the healing should be done; but he
never would have become well IL he
had not followed the directions. God
never saves a sinner except in His own
way, and not until the sinner exclaims
with Saul of Tersus. Lord. what wilt
Thou have me to do?"
This work was brought about by a
little maid, a weak girl, but strong in
the Lord. We have so many weak
women in these times. The girls are

Naaman was cleansed without none,
and without charge; so may every sin
