BANEFUL INDiG ESTloN.
The Disorders 1t Causes and the Poi
 sons it InstiIs In the Blood.

sons 1t lnSt1ls Tn the BlOOu'
 If we only knew how dangerous, in- sidious and ruthless 0 disease indiges- ton is, we would not wait as we do before endeavoring to cure it.
 The longer We wait, the more danger ous it Is likely to become.
 So the sooner we take Shaker Diges- tive Cordial the better it will be, and the better we will be.
 Indigestion Is dangerous because it creates poisons in the stomach which are absorbed by the blood and by it carried to all parts of the body.
 Could anything be worse than this?
 These poisons would not be formed if the stomach could digest It's food. When 1t can't, Shaker Digestive Cordial will help it to do so.
 Nothing will help the stomach so well as Shaker Digestive Cordial. nothing else cure indigestion so quickly, or so positively
 The reason Is that it purifies the stomach and the blood, and makes your food strengthen instead of poison you.
 It is not medicine but an aid to di- gestion, a pleasant cordial for weak stomachs.
 Sold by druggists. Ten cents for a trial bottle.
 Address for interesting book. The Shakers, 30 Reade street, New York.

who he was, And he answered, as is mentioned in the gospel, that he was not the Messiah. The Jews expected a different answer, so that they might deliver him up to the law as an impos- tor, for they believed that their Mes siah was yet to come and that when he came he would come with great power and majesty, surrounded with the courts of kings and all the magnift- Cence and grandeur that wealth and riches could bestow, and not in the humble garb of that of John or of Christ born at Bethlehem.
 And brethren, at this season of the year it might be well for us to prepare ourselves for the coming of the Lord and ask ourselves who we are. Unfor- tunately there are Christians who, be- ing baptized in the faith in their youth, have lived strictly in accordance with the teachings and practices of the church but in advanced years, owing to the cares of the world, have become negligent in minor things and then in greater requirements in the perform ance of their Christian duties in receiv- ing the sacrament at Easter, content
 
 sionally the divine service on Sunday, Another class there is who, though at tending to their duties, have neglected the obligation of fasting and attending on holy days of obligation. A third class there is also who have fallen away entirely from the faith and it's practices by coldness and indifference, hoping that they will have sufficient time to make atonement for the past when their final summons shall be giv- en them and in the words of the gos- pei, the Lord shall ask them, Who art thOu?'
 II pray, brethren that you may not be among the number of Christians have mentioned, and if any of you are God will give you the grace to become good and practical Christians in this holy season of Christmas--a blessing which l wish you all"
