other remedies: Paine's celery compound
is best known from the mouths of men
and women whom it has made ~well-they
are in every city. own and village in the
country.
No one can pass the newspaper bulletins
without being reminded by how slight a
thread the best of men hold on to life.
The slight Ups and downs in health from
which people recover make them forget
that there is a limit to the body's elias
ITCHY and endurance. The habitually ex-
hausted nervous system at last loses it's
power of recovery and offers no resist
ance to disease.
Prevent disease is the watchword of
the best medical thought OF today. Care
full men and women do not wait until they
are fiat on their backs as people once
did. The more Intelligent part of every
community has found out the inestimable
benefit to be derived from Paine's celery
compound, when one is wornout, nerve
tired and '.out-of-sorts.'
The little ills, the beginning of neuralgia
and rheumatism, the ~''all-gones and tired
feelings show the immediate need of puri-
flying the blood and refreshing the nerves.
The direct and energetic way Paine's
celery compound overcomes sick and
nervous headaches, dyspepsia and heart
troubles, as it does all other nervous dis
orders, has compelled the admiration of
the medical world from the start.
Headaches, rheumatism, neuralgia, life
less feelings, and debility cannot persist
when in~telligently met and corrected by
this greatest of nerve and brain strength
eners. No remedy ever kept the conf
dence of so large a body of inquiring men
and women TRY il

Methodists are to have a church congress.
This is a new departure, and is said to be the
idea of Bishop John II. Vincent. of Chautauqua
fame. Its object is to bring together the young
people of the Methodist communion. These
young people are to be asked to give their
best IDEAS on tHe relation St Metnouish TO the
current social and intellectual conditions of the
times, and are not to touch upon church polity.
No Methodist is to be allowed to belong to it
unless he or she-for it is for Methodists of
both sexes-has completed, a college course OF
study or has become a specialist in scientific,
literary or professional lines. There is intended
to be a large social element to the end that the
young thinkers OF Methodism may know each
other personally. The congress is TO sit for
fye days, beginning on November 21 next, and
to mees in Pittsburg, Bishop Ninde, who is a
member of its Executive Committee, says the

MUSICAL MATTERS.


There have been so many applicants for
piapoforte instruction at the Hasbrouok School
of Music that the time of Mr. Victor Baier
and Mr.. G. L.. Becker was completely engaged
within ten days of opening. In view of the
number Of subsequent applications. 1t has been
decided TO add one more to the pianoforte
faculty. The School has engaged Mr.. Edward
J, Groebl. of New York City. who has made
a fine reputation there as teacher, organist
and conductor. He was for several years or
ganist and choirmaster of St. Augustine's
Trinity PARISH. st. Peters and DR.. Sabine's.
Mr.. Groebl comes naturally by his musical
ability. his mother being. previous to her mar
rage with Professor Groebl. an authority on
harmony and theory of music. the celebrated
European pianist. Mile. Marie Bonsifet de
Morieourt, who was regarded as a phenomenal
sight-reader by List. who. with such authori-
ties as Eduard Hauslick, placed her in the
highest rank of European musicians. Mr..
Groebl's sister. Miss Marie Groebl. sang.
with much success, in opera in England and
on the Continent, creating the leading role in
AIvanhoe" for Sir Arthur Sullican. Mr.. Groebl
was a pupil Of the celebrated English organist,
Frederic Archer. and often took his place.

partment of physical culture, Woman's
Christian Temperance Union, Vermont.
wrote on May 16, last:-
1T affords me pleasure to add my testi-
mony with others regarding the healing
effects of Paine's celery compound upon
an exhausted nervous system
Aug. II, 1897, she wrote: ssAs a rule 1 do
not endorse medicines, but | believe
Paine's celery compound to be of a differ
emit order from the ordinary medicines.
Facts eannot be disputed. I have derived
so much benefit from the compound that
1 am glad to heartily recommend it,
hoping others similarly afflicted may be
relieved. Any medicine that will relieve
suffering humanity is a blessing to the
world
A blessing to the world!
Paine's celery compound has been
proven to be the one great remedy that
really makes people well. This estimable
woman, whose Christian work is earnestly
directed toward the betterment of others,
and whose eminence in the w. G. 7. U.
makes her advice of great value, plainly
indorses Paine's celery compound.
The amount of poor health on every
hand is something shocking to everyone
who stops to think. Hundreds of men and
women in every neighborhood are today
carrying about with them a needless load
of ailments that a thorough refreshing
of their nerves. a purifying of their blood,
more sleep and more regularity in the
bodily functions would completely do
away with. Paine's celery compound will
do all this for sick and ailing men and
women.

Protestant Episcopal.
Hoboken churches have opened their season
of social events. Nearly all the church people
who have been travelling or spending the sum-
mer in the country have returned and have
begun an active interest in church work.
In the Church of the Holy Innocents the mem
bers of St. Joseph's Guild and the Guild for
Holy Childhood are arranging for their first
meetings since the summer vacations. st.
Joseph's Guild will meet next Monday after
noon and the Guild for Holy Childhood will
meet next Tuesday evening at eight p. M.
Arrangements have been made to have Rev.
Father boiling. formerly of ST. Agatha's
Church, Portsmouth. England, to give special
lectures in the Mission Hall every evening for
ten days. commencing on November l3. Father
Doliing is a very interesting speaker. While in
England he spent much of his time conducting
missions among the sailors in the various ship
ping centres and he will relate his experience.
On some days he Will talk exclusively to men,
on others to women and on other occasions to
young people. The fourteen large handsome
panels. representing the Stations of the Cross,
which were recently purchased in Paris by
Mrs, Martha B. Stevens of Castle Point, have
arrived and will soon be erected in their place
in the church opposite the altar. They viii
be blessed on the evening of October 81 This
will be All Saints Day.
A series of lectures on the "Klondike.' with
musical accompaniment, will be given in St.
Mary's Hall, Hohoken avenue, October Is, 10,
20 and 81, at eight o'clock in the evening.
Baptist.
The Ladies' Aid Society of the First Baptist
Church. Hoboken. has engaged Miss Melanie
Stewart, a talented elocutionist. to give a per-

evening, October IS. Miss Stewart will Illus

lian Quartette of New York viii also be on the

UniVers2Ifsf
Universalists have some very important mat
inters to consider. They meet in biennial SEES
sion in Chicago next Tuesday, and some of
the sessions may possibly prove stormy. Two
years ago a modification of the profession of
faith was made, and it comes up for final pas
sage at this time. The element that tends to-
ward unitarianisrn favors the change. and
the other element opposes it with great earnest
ness. A second matter is ministerial surveil-
lance. That is, the unconditional right to
examine more closely than can now be done
into the theological tenets held by applicants
for orders and by regular preachers. A third
matter is the basis of representation. The
general body Is now quite small, there being
only about $50 delegates. 1t is likely that 4
larger ratio will be adopted, one that will
make the general body contain about 300 MEM
bers.
