ViGiSsitudcs of the Church.

That the lone Body" is the city Of
refuge, the palladium of safety, the
ark of salvation is evident to every
faithful student of the faithful script
ures. That Jesus Christ, under God,
is the Trainer and builder thereof is
conceded. After it was fully organ
lied, properly endowed, and set in
motion, by and by the corroding
hand of time, and the assumption and
presumption of man, inspired by the
spirit OF the devil brought about adj
ditions here, substractiors there,
multiplication of rites. observances.
and ceremonies, and the division of
honors, emoluments, and pludered
spoil. An admixture of oriental
philosopy, and aesthetic mythology,
and idolatrous practices in general
caused the wheels of progress to roll
backward and crush out the simplic-
ity and purity of the faith Ecclesi-
astical and secular history, as well as
the divided distracted condition of
the whole of what is called Christen-
dom, all unite and agree that there
has been universal falling away, or
wholesale apostasv from the Christi
anity Of Christ and the Bible.
In the English homilies on tie
perils OF idolatry it is acknowledged
that the whole world for eight humid
red years and more, was buried in
the most abominable idolatry.

OF the various sects of Methodism, to

Ecstatic bliss today we bring

Long shalt thou live, our peerless spring,
And KLONDIKE be thy name.

ELECTRICAL TREATMENT.

Electricity when properly and scien-
tifically applied, is a powerful and
most valuable remedial agent in the
treatment of certain chronic and ner-
vous diseases, which have been looked
upon as incurable. Electrical treat
ments have been specially valuable in
treatment Of certain Nervous Diseases,
rheumatism, Diseases of Women,
Stomach and Kidney Troubles, and in
many cases where the system is run
down, producing feeling of weakness,
lassltude, dependency, etc. Drs.
Downing & Co.'S. offices are supplied
with the most perfect Electrical Appli-
ances made, which they use with mar
velous results in cases requiring Electro
cal Treatment. If you are afflicted
with any long standing disease or
weakness you should consult these
physicians at once; don't wait until
the opportunity to obtain treatment
from Drs. Downing q Co. is gone.
They cure after other physicians fail.
A course of treatment may add years
and happiness to your life.
