THE POWER OF TRUTH.
Rev. DIR. Mackay-Snith's Sermon at
st. Michael and All Angels.

The Rev. DR. Alexander Mackay- Smith,
of ST. Johns Church, preached an inter
esting sermon last evening at the Mission
Chapel, st. Michael and All Angels. The
discourse was q forceful argument on
the power of truth, based on the text tai ken
from Genisis xl:22, And Reuben an
swered them, saying, do not sin against the
child
DR.. MackaySmith told interestingly
the history of the lives OF Joseph and
Reuben. and drew beautiful simile be-
tween them and other men. The spirit
OF conversion is the same now as it was
then, he said, and the awakening or the
conscience, too, also the same. Now, as
then, there is no escape from sin, so 1t
behooves all to base their hopes on the
goodness and forgiveness OF our Lord
rather than on the vain glory of earthly
power, For power, he said, based on
wrong, can never last, but sooner or later
Will he ovcrthrown and become subseryi-
ent to right.
Before his sermon Dr.. Mackay- Smith an
nounced that the Rev. W. X. Turner, now
assistant rector of Epiphany Church, and
formerly OF Grace Church, has been ap-
pointed to the rectorship Of st. Michael
and All Angels, and would, in all proba-
bility enter upon his duties at pastor about
the first of March
At q meeting of the vestry of the Church
Of st Michael and All Angels held yester-
day that body ratified the choice by the
vestry OF st. Johns Church of the Rev. w.
Il. Turner as rector of the first mentioned
church He has for two years been as
sistant rector a the Church OF the Epiph-
any, at which his style and ability in the
pulpit baye become pleasantly familiar
to very many Washingtonians.

Cleveland's first Inauguration gave

weather" Never since Washington be-
came the capitol had there been such
perfect day for an inauguration as
that was. The crowd was the greatest
ever known here and the procession
likewise was of great length and mag
n1tlcence. Harrison, who succeeded
Cleveland, brought with him the whole
SEVENTEEN Indiana regiment, which he
had commanded during the war; and
the procession was imposing, though
labOring under the handicap Of partic-
ularly bad weather The rain came
down in heavy showers, spelling the
decorations out of doors, and drench-

his speech in the open air, sheltered

CleVelands last inauguration was
also conducted under discouraging
weather conditions, alternating between
rain and snow, yet the military display
was very effective, particularly in the
impressive showing made by the ma

New York, Pennsylvania, and other
nearby states. Mr. Cleveland also in

WHY THEY BREAK DOWN.
Not Only Animals, but Men. A Strong
Object Lesson.


Object Lesson.
HE was a splendid racer once, but is all
broken down now" was the remark of gen.
tleman who saw a well-known horse hobble
by. The horse has been overtaxed and broke
down." The man of business strains his
energies and breaks down. The wife, mother
or working woman goes beyond her strength
and breaks down. The world seems filled with
broken down people, and unfortunately, it
generally seems to be their own fault. When
nature begins to give way assist her. Do it
gently, and do it sensibly. Stimulate her
weakening powers with pure whiskey taken
as medicine, and not as beverage. Nine
times out of ten, the breaking down will
cease and health will return.
1t is necessary, however, that only pure
and medicinal whiskey be used, and doctors
all agree that Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey is
the only pure and reliable preparation in
America. 1t has the Endorsement of clergy
men, owing to its great medicinal qualities
1t is used in hospitals, In cases Of fever and
where reliable stimulant is required but
its great power is in restoring the broken

and giving new life to the aged. Do not per
nit any dealer to sell you a worthless article
claiming it is as good Duffy's, which is the
only medicinal whiskey before the public.
