chest after eating palptation Of the heart
etc, are but symptoms Of indigestion To
relieve these sutlerings has been the study of
the Shakers and they have succeeded The
reason the Shaker Digestive Cordial has such
an immediate and salutary effect is that It
causes the food eaten to be digcsted for It is
uudigcsted food that causes the distress. The
Cordial causes the food to be digested befor5
there is time for it to femcut and sour on
the stomach. When the food is so digested it
gives strength aud vigor to the feohle body,
makes ode feel bright and cheerful, and
makes one gain in flesh.
The Digestive Cordial is so prompt in its
action that the very first dose will have a
perceptibly favorable result It gives inn

as a breaking of the machine" 1t
was claimed as a victory for the more
liberal branch of the church, and was
in line with the election of DR.. Withrow
last year.
When the ballot was declared Drs.
Spinning and Hayes were appointed a
committee to escort the successful can
didate to the platform, where he was
welcomed with a few remarks by DR..
Withrow. The new moderator re-
sponded briefly, and after a few notices
the assembly adjourned until evening,
when the sacrament of the Lords sup
per was celebrated. DR.. Withrow pre-
sided. He was assisted by DR.. Stephen
w. Dana, of Philadelphia, who admin
isteTed the bread, and DR.. Wilson
Phraner, of New York, who served the
cup. The elements were distributed by
20 elders. headed by ex-President Ben
iamin Harrison and Mr.. John Wana-
maker.
DR.. Sheldon Jackson, the moderator
Of the Presbyterian general assembly,
was born at Minaville, N. Y, in 1884
He was graduated at Union college in
1866, and three years later at Princeton
Theological seminary. With the ex-
ception of portion of the period Of the
civil war, when he was engaged in
hospital work in Tennessee, and in the
employ of the Christian commission OF
Alabama, the whole of his life has
been spent in the home mission field in
almost every state and territory west
Of the Mississippi river, as Presbyter-
ian and synodical missionary. In 1877
he went to Alaska, and was the father
of the missions in that region. Subse-
quently he became United States COM
missioner of education for Alaska, and
