own Way.
ANY honest physician will tell you that
there is but one way to get increased flesh;
all the patent medicines and cod liver oils
to the contrary, Dotwithst anding.
Nature has but Cne way TO increase flesh,
strength anu vigor. mind ana body, and that
il through the stomach by wholesome food,
well digested. There is 70 reason, or com-
mon sense in any other method whatever.
People are thin, run do WI, nervous, pale.
and shaky in their nerves, simply because
their stomachs are weak.
They may not think they have dyspepsia,
but the fact remains that they 90 not eat
enough food, CT what they eat is net quickly
and properly digested, as 1t Should be.
DR.. Harlandson says the reason is be-
cause the stomach lacks certain digestive
acids and peptones, and deficient secretion
OF gastric juice.
Natures remedy in such cases is 10 sup
ply what the weak stomach lacks. There
are several good preparations which win do
this, but none so readily as Stuarts Dys-
pepsia Tablets, which are designed especial
ly for all stomach troubles, and which cure
all digestive weakness on the common sense
plan of furnishing the digestive principles
which the stomach lacks.
stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets give perfect
digestion. First effect is to Increase the
appetite and increased vigor, added flesh,
pure blood, and strength off nerve and
muscle is tie perfectly natural result.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is the safest
tonic known and will cure any form of
stomach trouble except cancer OF the stom-
ach. May be found at druggists at so cents

His TEXT FROM TIE TIMES
Rev. Ernest Drewitz Talked on Tai
mage's Response to Miss Wilbur.
He Compared the Words 'I Have
Nothing to Give" with Christ's
Example and Teachings.

The story of the workings of charity
In the District, recently published in The
Evening Times, furnished the subject
OF an eloquent sermon, preached in German,
at the morning services OF Concordia Church,
yesterday, by Rev. Ernest Drewitz, pastor
Of the church.
The experience OF Miss Sibyl Wilbur
with Rev. Dr.. Taimage, and his reply to
her appeal for aid with the words II have
nothing to give" be Ipade his special
theme.
Mr.. Drewitz chose his text from the
tenth chapter, thirty-eighth verse OF Acts,
He went about doing good" After re-
ferring to the story, and TO the great
minister's cold response to woman's
appeal for charity, he spoke OF the 'loiDgs
or the Saviour, and of the time of Epiphany
bearing the impress OF his works, and said
that the glory of Christ should be mani
tested in US.
1t is not by wealth that the love that
goes not only into life but into eternity,
is shown. 1t is with the eye, the heart.
and the hand that We extend our love
and charity.
We may have the wealth and position
that will enable us TO do good; may give
to the poor and help charity, but unless
our heart is filled with that love, we
shall find confronting US across the gates
OF eternity the inscription, weighed and
found wanting"

Dr.. Williams First Sermon at
the Metropolitan Baptist.
ELOQUENT ADDRESS ON HOPE
He Declared 1t the Only Stimulant
to Great Deeds or ii Righteous Life.
Large Congregation Present to We'll
come Him-Recognition Service to
Be Held Tonight.

Rev. Granville Williams, recently chosen
pastor OF the Metropolitan Baptist Church,
TO succeed the late Green Clay Smith,
preached the first sermon OF his pastorate
there yesterday morning.
DR.. Williams, who is iall aud slender,
is just "a the prime of life, earnest and
vigorous. His delivery is easy, but full
Of nervous energy, and his points are en-
forced rather by the strength OF the action
accompanying Than by grace and finish.
He speaks without notes, and If he COL
ciudes IL is worth the while, writes his
sermons afterward.
The text yesterday was Paurs words to
the Romans; but we are saved by hope"
There was, he said, "a very wide as well
as very intensely practical truth con-
tanned in this thought. The inspiration OF
hope is very often the most potent factor
In achieving success. The man who does
not hope TO succeed is almost sure to fail.
1t is he who goes out enthusiastic eager,
earnest, full OF life and hope that moves
the world and accomplishes something.
WALT WHITMAN'S DEATH.
He told of the burial of an American
poet recently at which there was no word
OF hope. Itwas cherries, dismal passage
into an unknown, despairing eternity, so
lar as tue Worus SPOKEN dt tne grave were

Whitman.
Even the granite shaft which marked the
last resting place, he said, faced the setting
sun with its darkness or night. There was
no preparation for dawn OF another morn
ing; no promise OF resurrection to new
life. This was the true symbol OF III
fidelity.
On the other hand, the religion of Jesus
was full of hope. Every word was a prom
Use OF good to those who love and serve
their Lord and Master. Christianity faces
the East and is looking for Il glorious morn
ing in the resurrection to a life beyond
the grave. Meantime, 1t is full OF activity
