In a $1O,5OO Sultan Interesting
Case
Bridgeport, March est leaked out
to-day that James Staples, executor OF
the will of the late David Wakeman,
had made a settlement of the suit for
$10,500 instituted against the estate by
Mrs. Annie Burdette, who was the tes-
tator's common law wife. Mrs. Bur
dette lived with Wakeman for sixteen
years. She had one child by him and
this boy was remembered in the will Of
the testator Wakeman did not men
ton Mrs Burdette in the instrument
He intended to marry her, though, but
he died while she was returning from
the town clerks office with marriage
license. Upon his death she sued his
estate.
Mr. Staples settled her claim by deed
ing to her the homestead in Southport
and giving her $1,000 in cash. Toomey
& Lynch, her counsel, are indignant
over the settlement, because it was
made without their knowledge.

LIVER cLoeeINc.
When Your Stomach Clogs Your Liv-
er, See TO Your Digestion.


Not one person in a thousand knows
that the cause of biliousness Is the
clogging OF the liver by the poisons of
indigestion. Not that the only proper
cure for it is a tonic to aid the stom-
ach But modern medicine declares
the truth of it, And the Shakers have
proved it by the wonderful success of
their Shaker Digestive Cordial.
One of the most important uses of
the liver is to arrest and destroy all
poisons which try to find their way into
the blood. When it's clogged, it can't
do this.
Undigested food ferments and pu-
trifies in the stomach, and the poisons
of putrifaction clog and paralyze the
liver, after which they find their way
into the blood.
Here is the true explanation OF all
the distressing disorders and compli-
cations caused by indigestion.
Shaker Digestive Cordial is the only
tonic cordial which aids the stomach
i'll natural way to digest it's food.
By this means, it cures indigestion,
restores the liver, and frees the body
from poison and disease.
Headache dizziness, neuralgia, men
tai depression, weakness, bad taste,
fever, flatulence, constipation, loss of
appetite, anaemia, rheumatism, and
many other disorders are relieved and
cured by Shaker Digestive Cordial.

AT THE MINISTER'S MEETING.
What the Laity Said to the Clergy-Ar
Interesting Discussion

hHLSh Sh7IiiiSo CioSuoolOii
The order of the day, at the minis
tiers meeting on Monday, was a SYM
postum on the topic; What the Pew
Expects of the Pulpit" Some of the
more significant thoughts are presented
below
w. III. Douglass urged the point that
the ministry should devote itself to
proclaiming the gospel of Christ rather
than attempting to discuss sociological,
economic and political questions, which
specialists could do better. And he
would have enthusiasm in the minis
try. If | am Indifferent in my business,
said the speaker, the men whom l EN-
ploy will be Indifferent
H. G. Newton would have the minis
ter enter his pulpit with some distinct
object to effect; would have him mani
fest an interest in his own sermons, as
though he believed in what he was
preaching; and would have him possess
a sense of the interesting, if he can.
Burton Mansfield thought the clergy
should discourage financial schemes
masquerading as social privileges. The
preacher should be neither sentiment
talist nor a doctrinaire: he should
preach the gospel, regarded as love-
fully, fearlessly, applying it to all the
relations of life. If there is a growing
disregard for the pulpit, 1t is because
the pulpit fails to present the gospel.
c. III. Plat would be displeased If
text Were distorted and the distortion
made the basis of sermon AS
fisher of men, the preacher should re-
ti,,o ipto Al, L;
bait tempting 1t is well that nearer
be able to carry away few truths, but
far better that he be induced to apply
them to his heart and life.
Simeon E. Baldwin said: 1.-THE pews
expect about what they get, and get
about what they want Not all hear
ers have the same requirements De-
nominations have different ways of
looking at things, which is the occasion
for their separateness. And a city con-
gregation may need a different minis
tration from a mining camp, and per-
haps western city may differ from an
eastern The clergyman should avoid
making erroneous or doubtful state
ments, should be sure in regard to
facts. Points in controversial theology
L
to inspire men and women with the
life and teachings of our Savior, and it
is not essential for this purpose to de-
fine the atonement. Moreover, people
should be addressed in the language of
the heart and the language of our day.
The speaker counselled the disuse of
hymns embodying discredited theology,
and would have such chosen as can be
sung. with the spirit and with the I'M
derstanding also. The application of
greater thought to the choice of hymns.
the selection of Scriptures, and prepa-
ration for public prayer, would be re-
warding.
According to the testimony offered by
these representative laymen, congrega-
lions desire their ministers to preach
that which is most central and essen
tial in Christianity. To exalt the Re
deemer is to draw men unto Him.
