Gludness Comes

vx/ith better understanding Of the
w transient nature of the many phys
ical ills which vanish before proper eff
forts gentle efforts-pleasant Efforts
rightly directed. There is comfort in
the knowledge that SO many forms of
sickness are not due to any actual dis
ease, but simply 10 constipated condi-
ton of the system, which the pleasant
family laxative, Syrupof Figs, prompt
ly removes. That is why it is the only
remedy with millions of families, andis
everywhere esteemed so highly by all
who value good health. It's beneficial
effects are due to the fact, that it is the
one remedy which promotes internal
cleanliness, without facilitating the
organs on which it acts. It's therefore
all important, in order to get its bene-
fetal effects, to note when you pur-
chase, that you have the genuine article,
which is manufactured by the California
Fig Syrup Co. only, and sold by all rep
utable druggists.
If in the enjoyment of good health,
and the system is regular, then Iaxa-
tives or other remedies are not needed.
If afflicted with any actual disease, one
may be commended to the most sl1illful
physicians, but if in need of laxative,
then one should have the best, and with
the wel-informed everywhere, Syrupof
Figs stands highest and is most largely
used and gives most general satisfaction

Of Rev. H. W. Peck, the pastor, to
preach the dedication sermon and the
church was crowded by representative
people to listen TO his able discourse.
The altar rail was most artistically
decorated with fragrant and beautiful
flowers and the chancel wall back of
the pulpit was covered with three large
palm branches; from the center one a
bunch of white Gala and Easter lilies
hung gracefully. Potted plants were
numerous all over the platform. A
very refined decorative taste was ex-
hibited in arranging the flowers.
Officiating at the services besides
DR.. Ollie and Mr. Peck were the ven
cradle missionaries DR.. Hiram Bling
ham and Rev. Serene Bishop. The
japanese Minister, Rev. H Kihara,
occupied a chair at the right Each
took part in reading passages from
the scriptures or in announcing the
hymns TO be sung by the congregation.
The dedication sermon by DR.. Ollie
was upon the "Certainties of Religion"
The speaker held the attention of the
audience for fifty minutes by his elo-

born in Illinois and when II years OF
age entered the Northern army, join
ing as a private soldier, the 150th In
diana volunteers
After the close of the war he entered
college from which he graduated. At
forwards he studied law. but never
practiced. Preferring theology, he
studied and became a minister in Hi
nois and ordained by Bishop Simpson.
Twenty-three years ago he was trans
ferred to California on account Of the i'll
health of his wife. During his residence
in that state he has earned a reputa-
ton, as an exponent Of the Gospel, sec
ond to none on the Pacific coast.
He is a trustee of the University OF
the Pacific and will preach the bacca-
laurate sermon there on May %. He
was invited to the presidency OF the in
stitution but declined.
DIR. Ollie is prominent in G. A. R.
matters and Past Department Chap
lain of the corps in California
During his stay here he will deliver
three lectures, all of which are popular
on the coast. His first will be on Abra-
ham Lincoln and the Civil War, be-
ginning with the early life of Lincoln
and continuing until the close OF the
war. This lecture will be illustrated
with slides from views taken by Brady
during the war There are a number
of the battle of Gettysburg, which will
/ be Of intense interest to the members
I of the G. A R. Besides battle scenes
there will be portraits of the leaders OF
/ the war. To make the lecture as real
istic as possible old war songs will be
rendered by good singers.
| Another lecture, one which has be-
come very popular in California, and
wherever else Dr. Ollie has delivered it,
is the Pilgrimage to American
/ Shrines." This begins at Old Plymouth
going through towns and buildings that
have been immortalized by famous
writer's and through association with
events in the olden days. II will show
views of the haunts of Hawthorne and
| Emerson. The lecturer will exhibit
twenty views of Concord, the scene of
a famous battle in the revolution which
will be celebrated by the Sons Of the
American Revolution at the residence
of Chief Justice Judd tonight.
DR.. Ollie delivered this lecture at the
request of Mrs. Stanford before the
Sons and Daughters of the American
Revolution in the Occidental Hotel
some time ago and quite recently before
an audience Of 1.5O0 people at the Met
ropolitan Temple, San Francisco. Dur
ing his visit at Concord he was the
guest of Mrs Daniel Lathrop at Way
side House"
His third lecture will be on Love,
Courtship and Marriage" a subject
most of Honolulu is familiar with.
DR.. Ollie is the organizer of the Civic
Federation, a reform organization in
San Francisco, which aims at purifying
politics The success Of the movement
has been most gratifying.

THE
Success
is THE
PERFECT FILTER +!
BECAUSE:

First-The filtering medium is Tri-
poll Stone which does not receive into
its pores the filth and germs it extracts
and which is always the same, no
matter how long in use.
Second-The action of the filter
downward, from an upper to a lower
jar, passes the water, drop by drop,
through the air, restoring the oxygen
thereby which the water may have lost
from stagnation, confinement, or other
wise, and imparting to it freshness OF
taste, sparkle and vitality.
Third-Its action is as rapid as is
consistent with efficacy. A too rapid
filtering does not wholly remove i'm
purities.
Fourth-Eyery part is accessible for
cleaning, and without laborious effort.
Thorough cleanliness is the chief reQu-
isite of any good filter.
Fifth-The jars being made either OF
stoneware or porcelain insures water
being kept pure and uncontaminated
after being filtered.
Sixth-Stoneware for those who de-
sire an efficient yet low-priced filter,
and the finest porcelain, decorated to
suit, enables the SUCCESS to accom-
modate itself to the wants Of all in
the matter Of price.
Seventh-Its construction admits
also of its capacity being adapted to
suit the wants of all, from the indi-
vidual tourist to the largest hotel or
laundry.
Since introducing the Success Fill
ter, we have sold a large number of
them, and they give perfect satisfac-
ton.

duence and in illustrating his subject
by relating instances which have come
before him in his life's journey and
using them as comparisons with the
words Of the Bible. He spoke of
God and religion as easier TO become
acquainted with, if ones heart is right,
than even an intimate friend. His
word pictures were interesting in the
extreme.
Speaking of the church DR.. Ollie
said il was here to remain, as any other
church, was expected to; he never
heard of a Methodist church going
under once it was built. AS to this
particular church, the fact that it was
10 be dedicated free from any indebted
ness. and with probably a surplus
10 the good, was something phenom-
email. For that reason he was sure
the church would stand and the con-
gregation would grow differently from
that Of a Presbyterian church in Ne
vada where the membership decreased
TO one old lady. One Of the Board
OF Missions visiting there saw the state
of affairs and notified the old lady
that he thought il best TO disband the
church. But the only remaining
member was faithful and refused to
disband.
At the close of the sermon Rev. H.
W Peck and the congregation read
the 12sth Psalm Issponsively.

TEETH MAKE MANY ILLS.
The Evils Which Follow Imperfect Mas
tica,ion May Be Avoided.

"It would take too long to emu
merate the many ills which may spring
from imperfect teeth" said DIR. Der
by. "Of course one who has good
teeth knows their value, but not
enough people know what to do to
keep them always in proper condition.
Neither can you tell one just what is
necessary at all times. The removal
of all foreign substances from any
contact with the dentine is of course
the primary necessity in considering
the preservation of the teeth.
conc of the first reasons why one
should have perfect teeth is the infu-
ehce they exert over the digestion.
To secure proper assimilation the
process of mastication should be
thorough. Nothing less will accom-
plish the results intended. If this
process is incomplete, all the attend
ant evils of indigestion are likely to
follow. Thus the question of health
is interposed as primary one. Free
dom from aches and pains and ap-
pearance take secondary places.
"Of the many forms of neuralgia
which cause such excruciating suffer
ing a great many owe their existence
entirely to the presense of faulty teeth.
They can be remedied only by the
proper treatment of the diseased roots.
When this is done, a number of nerv-
ous disorders respond readily to the
ordinary medical treatment. Tooth.
ache, pure and simple, must be con-
sidered as an attendant of Improperly
cared for teeth. 1t is an old saying
that the man who finds an absolute
relnedy for and preventive of tooth
ache will make big fortune.
"Of course the primary instruction
to one who is suffering from bad
teeth is to see dentist. The expos
ed surface of the teeth, the enamel,
must be kept perfect and whole. Any
breaks in it must be Immediately re-
paired and any wearing away or de-
caying of the structure must be built
upif one expects to secure all the
perfect results for which the teeth
were designed by nature. Constant
brushing and cleaning and any good
nonacid wash will do much to keep
the teeth in good repair.
"Of course YOU know the story of
the man who, when his teeth were ad-
mired, gave the following reasons for
their perfect condition l always
brush them, night and morning and
after eating, and leave them in a glass
of salt water while l am asleep. -
