AT THE CENTRAL Y. M. c. A
REV, DIR. J. F. TWITOHELL'S EL0- oUENT ADDRESS TO YOUNG MEN.

General Secretary E. F. Mcintosh Alter Elexen Years of Service, Retires From the ofIice.
 At the Sunday afternoon meeting of the Central Young Mems Christian as- sociation, Rev. J. p. Twitchell address, ed an audience of young men, who lis- tened with rapt attention to his intense ly interesting and touching remarks, which were in brief as follows:
 "There is feeling of sadness in my heart this afternoon, friends, which is caused by this being the last meet ing with our brother and secretary. He has severed his official connection with this Christian association, where he has wrought so many years. remem- Der well when he began his work here. have been thinking of this fact-of the large number of young men he has met and helped in these eleven years. They have been coming and going all the
 
 years have been fruitful and the inf1u- ence must go on. There are two ways of attempting the work of life. One way is to put yourself in touch with God and keep in touch with Him, so that He will help you. I am here to commend this way. I wish to know you better. Oh! how many of you are now rejoicing in Christian home-the sympathy of friends. The most of us were born in Christian homes. We were in home and had mother and there is nothing in the world so strong as the mothers care and the fathers, whose interest we depend upon. Shall human mother and father put to shame the great Father of us all? We must know and be cheered by the belief that He is ever seeking the highest and best in us.
 we must believe in the power of prayer. If we are to have the strength, we must believe that it can be pur- chased. If we seek we shall find. By the way we are living we are making history, which we are to read time af- ter time. It is said that nothing ever wholly escapes the memory of man It may seem as if gone forever but some time will come back again Drowning men find their whole life flashing before them, as it were, in an in. stant. The opportunities for youth and manhood are boundless. Think ot Spain or Austria or Germany or ever England, and thank God that we livt to breathe this free air and live in this stimulating land of America. I would like to be able to stand a young mar in this fast approaching century. Witt these messages I come to you: Believe in God as a person that loves you ant cares for you; believe in His provi dence; believe in the power of prayer in the history that each one is making and may God keep you faithful ant truthful. Make your lives to be sucl history that we shall be glad to reat the pages over in the better world.''

sons 1t Instils In the Blood.
 If we only knew how dangerous, in- sidious and ruthless a disease indiges- tion is We would not wait as we do be- fore endeavoring to cure 1t.
 The longer we wait the more danger ous 1t Is likely to become. So the sooner We take Shaker Diges- tive Cordial the better it will be, and the better we will be- Indigestion Is dangerous because it creates poisons in the stomach which l are absorbed by the blood and by it car ried to all parts of the body, Could anything be worse than this?
 These poisons would not be formed if the stomach could digest it's food. When it can't Shaker Digestive Cordial will help it to do so.
 Nothing will help the stomach so well as Shaker Digestive Cordial, nothing else cure indigestion so quickly or so positively.
 The reason is that it purifies the sto- mach and the blood, and makes your food strengthen instead of poison you.
 It is not medicine, but an aid to di- gestion, a pleasant cordial for weak stomachs.
