A GOOD CIRCUS.
Everything That Was Advertised Was Acted
Well

All the people who attended the Walter
Main circus yesterday and last evening
were we'll satisfied with the entertain
meuts given. There were no features
advertised that were not carried out. No
rubbing games or s~windling devices Of any
were permitted; there was no drunk
enness and no noise or any unseemly acts
to mar the pleasure of any one.
The parade In the morning was excep-
tionally fine and drew a large number out
TO see it. TIE animals were well selected,
so as to show as great a variety as possible,
aud the performances given we're full of
Interest. In fact, during the entire two
hours, the circus people were crowding
every second, having sometimes three aud
always two performances going on at thu
same time in order to present the full
program.
No circus that ever came here gave bet
ter satisfaction, when all things are con-
sidered. The manager promises that the
will return next year, and IL it does,
the crowd will be one half larger than
this season.-Oroyilie Daily Register, Aug
10th, 1897.

opening service Of the Presbytery Of Santa
Re, last night. MRS. wheelock sang the
beautiful solo "AbIde With Me-" Rows.
Moffett, skinner and Gilchrist we're ia the
pulpit. Mr.. Moffett preached from the text;
1.-THE Kingdoms OF this world are boo ONE
the kingdom OF our Lord aud bis Christ.
Rev.1l:l5. Theme; The redeemed world
or the coming kingdom. Christ Is to rule
and OF his kingdom there shall be no end.
In this earthly part of the divine kingdom,
ws, the Lords followers, are the workers.
Does Christ rule to-day2 Yes. This age
10 remarkable, and particularly the past
twenty FIVE years are without parallel in
the lines OF scientific research. Among
students the age has been one OF progress
along the line Of inductive study. Darwin's
theory of evolution is considered by many
asa point Of epoch making history. All the
development or progress in science has had
its effect upon the Christian church. while
ChrIst's kingdom itself has caused much
study and opened Christian work on many
hitherto unoccupied lines. Higher criti-
cism Ia a product OF this country that has
aided the student; a moro searching study
of the Bible marks the day. The church
has entered on sociology and kindred lines,
good citizenship aud other duties of the
Christian, while the kingdom itself is &C.
cupying the thoughts of many.
There is a new meaning and greater
breadth in ideas as to Christian doctrine,
as ever there is need OF personal work and
preaching to win souls to Christ, but just
as truly the church has duties in social and
civil reforms, and has entered upon.soms
of these duties.

tor, Rev. R. M. Craig, temporary clerk and

slant theme of his was the shame of

theater, during his calls. whenever he
could get our attention, he harped up
on his fateful subject, until we became
50 bored, and perhaps too, a little
frightened, that we readily agreed to a
proposal of his. Itwas that We should,
all of Us, wear loose clothing, entirely
free from anything like pressure, for
three months, when he would promise
Us never to recur to the subject. OF
course, at the end of that time, it was
simply torture to go back to the old
way of dressing, and the health system
has had three devoted converts ever
since, though the experiment was tried
several years ago.

maximum quantity needed Is reached.
He is ordered to drink one or twor
glasses upon rising two or three glasses
between breakfast and dinner, the same

of glasses before going TO bed. The pa

wants it or not. He may say that he Is
not thirsty. but that makes no differ

The quantity is increased until we have
