ONE GOD AND One CHURCH
Opportunity of the Episcopal Creed
Discussed at Epiphany.
Rev. DR.. Huntington Develops the
Idea OF Christian Unity as Pos
sibility OF the Future.

The entertaining and popular theme OF
Christian Unity was discussed last even.
ing before very large assembly at Epiph-
any Church by W Illiam K. Huntington,
ID. D., d. c. L., the learned rector of
Grace Church. New York.
BY Christian unity the speaker con-
veyed the idea OF unification in creed
and practice of all those who in sincerity
st. Paul. f..
After speaking of the simple and beau
tiful origin of the Christian faith, and told
ing that it was not to he expected that We
should return TO the primitive form es-
tablished when St John founded the re-
ligion praciiealiylb by saying Behold the
Lamb OF God, the preacher said lifat the
true question was not the acceptance OF
this or that non-esseptia1 in doctrine, but
who shall be the oracle, who and what
shan be the supreme authority i'll matters
touching faith. -s,--lt-.sFg
DR.. Huntington referred next to the
subtle and pervading work OF the KUman
Catholic Church, which now had at Rome,
as ii always has bad, it's court OF final
appeal on all questions touching faith and
morals.
II would be a fIippant tongue, he said,
that could underrate or cast ridicule on
the assent OF the Holy Catholic Church to
that of Rome, he said, was based on the
facts that the former had its final appeal
in the Scriptures and in the general coun-
ellis. This brought him TO the discussion
OF the immense force and power of an
ecumenical council which could formulate
an ecclesiastical government. founded not,
as in the Roman Catholic Church, on edicts
and emissaries, but on the two forces re-
fcrred to.
DR.. Huntington expressed the opinion
that what was wanting was not an Ameri-
can church, for by its very terms the Holy
Catholic Church could have no territorial
limitations. At the same time he said il
was not TO be held that all that was good
and true was contained in the doctrines
OF one church. The Northern nations OF
Europe were Protestant, while the South
ern nations were papal, but it would be
unT cas- sonable TO suppose that the one
other was wholly wrong.
After its three ages Of infancy, adol
escence, and maturity, the opportunity Of
the Episcopal Church had arrived, and
should report for duty, and what was
most needed in this hour was leadership.
He saw nothing TO prevent the adoption
of the Anglican Church as the leader to
bring about the contamination suggested
by the subject, Christian Unity
DR.. Huntington took high aud liberal
grounds on all of his propositions. dis
cussed them with force, and was heard
with evident satisfaction and close at
tentton.

Is IT A TRIFLE?
That Common Trouble, Acid Dys-
pepsia or Sour Stomach.
Now Recognized n Cause Of Serious
Disease.

Acid dyspepsia, commonly called heart
burn or sour stomach, Is form of IEdiges-
tion resulting from fermentation ar the food.
The stomach being TOO weak to promptly
digest il. the food remains until ferfncnta-
ton begins, filling The ST omach with gas, and
bitter, sour. bnrnjag taste III the mouth Is
often present. This condition soon becomes
chronic and being an every day occurrence
is given but little attention. Because dYS-
pepsia is not Immediately fatal, many pco-
pie do nothing for the trouble
II is now well known among able physi-
clans that [ ne whole constitution is gradual
ly undermined and weakened, that the
nerves and vital organs are seriously af-
feCted by any form of dyspepsia. This Is
plain, as every organ. every nerve in the
body is nourishtd by the blood and the
blood is replenishtd from he food digeSted.
If the food is PROPE ERLY Y digesed the
blood is pure, the nerves steady, but If
supplied from n sour, fermenting. decaying
mass, the blood is vitiatod. poisoned, anu
the result is shown in sleepleSsness, lack
of energy, poor appetite. nervousness.
Every trlfle is magnlied and the dySpcptlc
sees nothing but I he dark sid de ofeverythine.
Within recent period ii remedy has been
discovered prepared SolelytO cure dy Spepsa
and stomach troubles. 1t is known as Stu
arts Dyspepsia Tablets and it is now be
coming rapidlyused and prescribed edas aradi-
cal cure for every form OF dyspepsia.
1t is not claimed to cure anything except
dyspepsia and stomach weakness in its var
ious forms, but for this it has been shown to
| be unequalled. The eminent specialists,
Reed and O'Leary, have recently stated that
| they considered Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets
an unfailing specific for disorders OF the
| digestive organs, and the remarkable cures
| made in cases OF long standing dyspepsia
proves that this remedy has extraordinary
| merit.
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets have been
| placed before the public and are sold by
| druggists everywhere at so cents per pack
| age. 1t is prepared by the Stuart Chemi'
cal Company, Marshall, Mich, and while 1t

! Gus digestion, at the same time is perfectly
harmless and will not iniure the most deli
