Not TO be Trifed With.
lFrom the Cincinnati Gazette.

From the Cincinnati Gazette.l
Win people never learn that "cold" is
an accident to be dreaded, and that when
it occurs treatment should be promptly
applied? There is no knowing where the
trouble will end; and while complete
recovery is the rule the exceptions are
terribly frequent. and thousands of fatal
illnesses occur every year, ushered in by
little injudicious exposure and SEEM
ingly trifing symptoms. Beyond this,
there are to-day countless invalids who
can trace their complaints to "colds,"
which at the time of occurrence gave no
concern and were therefore neglected.

berlain's Cough Remedy 1t is prompt
and effectual. % and 80 cent bottles for

There is a whole sermon in the
following brief paragraph from a
contemporary: People sometimes
think they can turn their backs to
old friends and make new friends at
will, only to find when it is too late
that there are no friends like the old
friends. If you have friend stand
by him; he has spoken good word for
you when you did not hear it; he has
done you kind act when you did not
perceive it; he has extended helping
hand to you when you needed help; he
has thought kindly of you when no
one knew it save our God. No, don't
go back on your friends because they
may not do exactly as you would have
them, or agree with you on every
point. One of the most common sins
of these times is the sin of ingratitude.
Many people not only forget their
best friends; but even go and speak
evil of them to a common enemy,
adding treason to ingratitude. If
you will not stand by your friends
who will stand by you in your darkest
hour? Certainly not your enemies"

A canvass among the druggists reveals
the fact that Chamberlain's are the most
popular of proprietary medicines. Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy, especially, is
regarded as in the lead of all throat
trouble remedies. and as such, is freely
prescribed by physicians. As Group
medicine it is also unexcelled. and most
families with young children keep bot
tie always handy for instant use. The
editor of the Graphic has repeatedly
known Chamberlain's Cough Remedy to
do the work after all other medicines had
failed.-The Kinball Is. D.)Graphic.

POLITICS IN PULPIT.
B. Fay Mills Creates q Sensation at a
Christian EndeavOr Meeting by
Reference to Mckinley.

Washington, July IA list OF thirty
meetings arranged to be held in the
tents and churches this afternoon Of
fered varying attractions to the four
thousand Christian Endeavor delegates
In attendance here upon the fifteenth
international convention. These We're
mostly denominational rallies and they
drew crowds according to the numerical
strength Of each particular denOmina-
tion. The Baptists, Presbyterians and
Congregationalists occupied the three
tents on the white lot. Speeches were
made at these rallies by prominent
members Of the several denominations.
Following these rallies Evangelist B.
Fay Mills, of Fort Edward, New York.
addressed large audience OF citizens
In tent Washington. He created a mild
sensation in the middle of his sermon
by a pointed reference to candidate Nc
kinley.
Speaking of the extension Of the prin-
ciples Of socialism as set forth in the
sermon on the Mount, he showed the
need in the present time Of Christian
leaders in American politics. Our can
didates for public Office. from president
said Mr.. Mills, by the spirit Of the
lamb that was slain. They do pretend
to be or they would not get our votes
II they came forward honestly and
made known their motives for running
for Office. we would not support them.
Suppose Mckinley should step up
before you and say: Fellow citizens I
wish to be your president so that I can
pay my debts (sensation). or suppose
Bryan should say: L will be your
president for my own good Why, we
would not chose either Of them to take
care Of stray dogs. What they say is:
Fellow citizens. I am ready to be sacri-
feed upon the cross of public duty.
am ready to be president or constable
as my country calls me- That is Chris
tian. That Is the spirit of the lamb
that was slain. 1t is pity that 1t Is not
always said in sincerity"
A Sabbath observance meeting was
held also in Central Hall. Mr. William
Shay, of Boston. presiding. Speeches
were made by Wilbur F. Crafts. of
Washington; Mrs. Henry T. McEwen,
Of New York, and others.
Tonight at seven o'clock Christian
Endeavor meetings were held In all the
churches Of the city.
Tomorrow is the closing day of the

In tents Williston and Endeavor. two
meetings Of the worlds union of Chris
tian Endeavor will be held at $50
o'clock at which delegates from Eng
land, Persia, India, Africa, Germany
China and Aremnia will speak. Tent

ly at the tomb of Washington for
service Of song and praise.

END OF THE STATE LEAGUE.
Pennsylvania Apparently Cannot Sus.
tain an Eight. Club League.

The State League has had its usual
experience. The organization began its
existence this year with good prospects,
only to meet a premature death before
the schedule was played out Apparently
Pennsylvania cannot afford an eight
club league Of it's own. They all go to
the wall sooner or later, lack of patron
age being the reason.
This year the league was conducted on
the best of lines. and the stumbling
block was In the fact that two of the
teams were so much stronger than the
Others so that the heart was taken out
of the fans In the majority Of the cities.
The reason for this Is apparent In no
two seasons is the organization made
up the same, and the managers have to
take big chances on signing players.
Before they can get their team working
well the race is under way and some
one. usually the teams which have been
together more than season, have pro-
fitted by their weakness. Then the
home crowds drop off until the owners
find they are losing money too fast. and
one after another the clubs drop out.
until disbandment IL the only course
left.
With the Athletic and Lancaster
teams In the Atlantic league interest
should not only be revived in these two
cities but their advent should have
stimulating effect on the six clubs
which have been battling among them
selves all season for the pennant Of the
organization. Philadelphia has shown
that she will take kindly to club in
minor league, provided good ball Is
played. for the Athletics have lost Moth
ing by their season here. The club,
however. suffered during the past
month by the drop of the Phillies and
it must be remembered. besides, that
the cranks have to be educated to minor
league ball.-Philadelphia Press.
