them become satisfied that one of the

England was not acting exactly fairly

REV. {. |. PELL'sLEcTuRE.

From Bethlehem to Calvary" An En-
Pertaining and Instructive Lecture
Heard by Large and Appreciate
Audience,
Rev. Edward L. Pell at Central Meth
odist church last evening delivered his
illustrated lecture, From Bethlehem
to Calvary" The audience was the
largest that has attended a lecture
here since Sam Jones appeared. And
they were heartily appreciative.
The lecture was an effort to present
the footsteps of Jesus in their order
from Bethlehem all the way to Calvary
and to impress upon the mind through
the eye and ear a realistic picture of
the Nazarene and of his life.
Mr.. Pell, in a forcible and earnest
way, presented vivid word-picture of
the life of Christ on earth. At times
he rose to eloquence and thrilled his
hearers.
"On this very night, at this very
hour" he said, ''the Savior gathered
his disciples together, in the upper
room, at he Last Supper, and in
stituted the holy sacrament" He then
pictured the scene of the Last Supper
and the midnight in the garden of
Gethsemane.
This was peculiarly effective, and
appropriate, last night being the ami
versary of that sacred occasion
The lecturer was assisted by an
operator, who with a powerful stereop-
ticon, threw upon the screen numerous
dissolving views of the places Jesus
visited, and also reproductions in full
colors of great paintings illuminating
the main incidents of his life. Among
the latter were "The Announcement
to the Shepherds" ''1he Wise Men
from the East" ''The Wedding in
Cana "The Paralytic Healed" Rails
ing of Jairus' Daughter" THE Trans
figuration,' ''The Good Samaritan"
Jesus Blessing Little Children, +" Rails
ing of Lazarus, . Christ Before plate"
Christ Bearing His Cross" "The
Resurrection, 1.-THE Ascension" and
many others.
Thes paintings by the masters were
finely reproduced in all the colors of
the original; the dissolving lime-light
makes very effective picture. The
views were all of famous paintings and
these formed an art gallery in them
selves.
This lecture was one of the most en-
tanning and instructive ever heard
here.

Wrong and Right Eating.
One Makes Us Weak; the Other Makes
Us Strong.

Wrong eating makes us weak, be-
cause it doesn't nourish us. 1t pois-
ons su, because it sets up poisonous fer
mentation in our stomach, and the
poisons 60 into our blood.
Wrong eating is eating indigest-
IDLE food, or eating more than our
stomach is able to digest.
Right eating is eating digestible
food, food that the stomach is able to
digest, food that viii nourish YOU
when it is digested.
Right eating strengthens and invig-
CRATES the body, gives endurance, I'M
creases weight and restores health.
Wrong eating can be made right by
taking the Shaker Digestive Cordial.
This preparation. made by the Shak-
ers from simple herbs, roots and wine,
is delicious, refreshing, and strength
ening to the body. It is a powerful
aid to digestion.
1t does not act by strongly stimula-
ting the stomach, but with its own di-
gestiye ferments acts on the food in
the stomach, and reduces, instead Of
increasing, the work which the stom-
ach has to do.
This is why it increases your
strength, why it will cure you of all
the bad effects of indigestion and of in
sufficient nourishment, and purifies
your system of all dangerous indiges-
tive poisons, when nothing else has
been found to relieve you.

Mr.. Charles T. Williams, chief clerk IN

people along the line Of the Raleigh and

the local stops, arriving in the morn
ing, without depending upon the un-
certainty of freight schedule, and a
coach is provided upon the through
freight leaving at 1880 in the morning,
for the accommodation OF passengers
returning. This means great deal
to Raleigh" said Mr.. Williams, "and it
is the intention of the road to thorough
iy advertise this service to people along
the Iine.''
Mr.. Williams also spoke of the new
Baltimore Fast Express which, under
the change of schedule, brings Balti-
more and Raleigh nearly twelve hours
nearer together. He intimated that fur
