Mr.. Sinclair is the sixteenth earl of

On Sunday morning the congrega
tion of that church, by unanimous
vote, extended call to Rev. John Sin

states that the congregation is we'll

the preacher, and feeling that Mr..
Sinclair's ministry of the gospel will

an all artists combination, presenting
such singers as Mabel Gjertsen, Julia

It isn't much trouble
for a really healthy man

tor really healthy man
to be good humored
Jo1lity and exhuberant health are a pro-
verbal combination. The hearty man who
is always laughing doesn't have any trouble
with his digestion. It has been said that
laughing makes people healthy. The truth
is that health makes people laugh.
1t is impossible to estimate the tre-
mendous influence of health upon human
character. A man with headache will
not be in happy, contented frame of
mind. A man who suffers from weak
stomach and an impaired digestion will sit
and grumble through the best meal ever
prepared. A bilious man who is not a
bore, is deserving of place in museum.
A nervous man who is not petulent and
fault-fnding is curiosity. All these con-
ditions lead to grave diseases, when the
victim becomes not only disagreeable, but
dependent as we'll. A wise wife will real
ize that while the old saying that "man's
heart is in his stomach" is not literally
true, it is fact that his stomach sweetens
or sours his character according as it is
healthy or unhealthy. DR.. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery is the best of medicines
for the conditions described. It makes
the weak stomach strong, the impaired
digestion perfect, invigorates the liver,
purifes and enriches the blood and tones
the nerves. It tears down half-dead inert
tissues and replaces them with the firm
muscular tissues of health. It builds new
and healthy nerve fbres and brain cells.
1t dissipates nervousness and melancholy
and imparts mental elasticity and courage.
1t is the best of all known medicines for
nervous disorders.

you studied while preparing for the
ministry in London.
But now, to be serious, if you believe
you are right in your notions, what an
opportunity presents itself. You clear
ly discern the trouble, and as you have
a smattering of theology already and
know just what causes the empty pews
in so many churches, suppose you
embrace the situation to immortalize
yourself and place Christianity on
the sight track. Why not formulate a
sect on these lines you seem to favor
for instance, the foundation should be
the general doctrines of Christianity
as now accepted, excepting as the
same as are modified by the following
three tenets:
First-No members shall be admit
ted except they are Populists in the
most radical sense.
Second-The members of this
church are expected to avoid "Phara-
saical fads' and are advised, even in
"meeting," to chew Battle Ak, Climax
or any other brand and eat what they
wish, or drink what they wish, especial
ly the latter.
Third-No resurrection for us.
Good-by, empty pews when this
sect would be firmly established. As
TO a name for it, "The Arnoldites'
would not only be fitting and proper
but also euphonious. The movement
would do much to redeem the name
from the stigma cast on it by one
Benedict in past days. From close in.
tjmacy and bosom friendship Youl
Uuncle 10 would, of course, be entitled
to the position of presiding elder. The
doctrine Of no resurrection would es
pecially be agreeable to him. He is
known to hate "Pharasaical fads.
Paul Koska would make an excellent
"John the Baptist" to herald the ad.
vance of the new salvation. He is
we'll qualified for the advance work
He has the foresight of an owl, and
his voice would be we'll adapted. to
work in the wilderness. He, too, is
strongly opposed to "Pharasaical
fads." Under the sway of the new
evangelism the world would soon be-
come so virtuous that it might become
necessary occasionally to offer ere
ward for thieves" The rapidity of
the spread over the prairie of such a
sect would put to shame even the
Russian thistle or the hog cholera.
By all means, James, do not let this
idea die with you undeveloped. 1t is
good thing, push it along.

REPLY TO.HRNOLD'S KICK.
The Vesta Sage Took a Fall Out OF
Preachers Generally In a
Minneapolis Paper.
Whereupon "ObserVer" Advises
Uncle Jim to Start Church
of His Own.

In recent issue of the Minneapolis
Times James Arnold of Vesta offers
an explanation as to why women go to
church, and men don't. Mr.. Arnold
uses himself for subject, and after
stating that he was reared by pious
parents, drilled in the moral law, mem
orized portions of the scriptures, and
still believed the Christian religion
the best and purest on earth, he says
that now be only goes to church to
attend funeral, and that this attend
ance is out of respect to the dead.
Then he gets down to business in
his peculiar style, by giving his.'reasons
for not attending church. Broadly
stated, he contends that nearly all, or
all of the preachers uphold theft and
robbery. One of the thefts, he says,
is the competitive system of business
as now practiced; another is the "tariff
system upheld by all of the preachers
of the same stripe as our Christian
President;" the National bank system
is another evil, according to James,
wherein the National government acts
as the hold-up for the bankers SO that
the latter may tax the wealth produc-
ers; private monopolies is another sys-
tenn that James don't like, and that
the preachers uphold. He says that
the preachers seldom or never lift
their voices against the ASSORTMENT
by few individuals or corporations
of all the natural rights of man to ma
ture's general gifts, and then takes a
fall out of the heads of churches, as
follows:
"Why, we have land-grabbing bish-
ops even, fawning, sycophant
preachers who bow the knee to greedy
oil kings ct al, because they support
churches, colleges and universities.
Do not these worship at the shrine of
mammon rather than at the cross of
Calvary?"
Mr.. Arnold gives as second reason
why intelligent men do not go to
church is because of the Pharasaic
fads there advocated. The fads, be
says, is the dragging into religion such
matters as the use of tobacco, certain
meats, drinks, ETC., and begs to remind
the editor that it does not make sc
much difference as to what a man
puts into his mouth, as what comes
out of it from the heart The preach
ers condemn these fads, but uphold OF
fail to condemn the unjust laws, cor
poration grabs, ETC., and intelligent
men will not be bothered by the form.
err trash.
A third reason given by the sage oi
Vesta for not attending church is the
inconsistency of preachers, wherein
one preacher will contradict himself
For instance, he says, he recently at
tended the funeral of very estimable
old lady in Sheridan. The preacher
was supposed to be great gun in
theology. He was first reminded, he
says, that man was mortal, and then
that we had immortal souls, flat con-
