ALL IS WELL.

ALL Id w GAA.
AS the days are swiftly passing
And wepause to backward look,
We can read on mem'ry's pages
Clearly as on any book:
Many are the joys recorded,
Sorrows deep they often tell
But above them hear the Masters
Tender accentS-"All is well.''
When our lives were sad and dreary,
And the rain was falling fast,
When our hearts with grief were laden,
Bending low beneath the blast,
How that gentle voice still soothed us,
We would DER the story TELL
OF the Savior who has led US.
And has taught us Cali is WE'LL"
What King and what Savior,
He who came in lOwly birth
To redeem poor fallen sinners,
And to heal the wounds of earth!
Shout with gladness, sing his praises;
Louder let the anthem swell;
Jesus came, and Jesus saves us,
"All is WE'LL" yes, "All is WE'LL"

A LARGE BODY.
The Southern Baptist Convention is
perhaps the largest religious organiza-
ton in the world. Certainly it IS one Of
the largest. For some time the question
Of free entertainment 10 the delegates
has been something OF a problem, until
now Invitations, accompanied by assur-
ances that the members Of the conYen-
ton will be entertained at private houses
are not very numerous. Last year the
convention met in Washington, and the
members of the convention had to secure
quarters and entertainment at the hotels.
IL is thought however. that the hospi-
tally of the Chattanooga people will be
equal to the occasion, and that the mem
bers OF the convention will find warm
welcome there.
Ia the convention the Baptists Of the
following States are represented: Alaba-
ma. Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Ken
lucky, Louisiana, Maryland, Mississippi.
Missouri. North Carolina, South Caro-
lima, Tennessee Texas ana Virginia. Also
Indian Territory. and the District Of
Columbia. There are about LOO MEM
bers. includ x both preachers and lay
men. In addition to members Of the con-
yention there will be a large number Of
the members OF auxiliary organizations
present In Chattanooga, as well as many
visitors, so that it may be estimated that
the convention will carry TO Chattanooga
something like 5000 people IN all.

American Baptists was the General

organization was celebrated In Washing

nerienced various degrees OF prosperity
and adversely since its organizations OUT
nerseverepce, energy, and faith encreased
its influence and strength until now it
is one OF the most powerful agencies for
the Christian cause In existence. Under its
fostering care have been established and
maintained the Foreign Mission Board,
with HEADQUARTERS in Richmond, the
Home Mission Board. with its headquar-

In 1859 the Baptist Theological Semi

Sunday School Board was also estab-

another Sunday School Board was created
and sent 10 Nashville. Tenn. and In 1893
