On bright September morning reporter
OF the Erie Dahl Times drove up to the cozy
residence of Luther Salisbury, about three
miles from East Springfield, Pa, and one
half mile from sherman Corners. Mr. SAILS
bury was Mt home aud graciously received the
reporter led him TO a coy sitting room, and
begged him to be seated. Mr.. Salisbury Is "a
years of age, with long snowy white beard,
and steady walk He was born in Conneaut
Township, about nine miles from where he
now resides, and is one of the best known far
mers in that section of the country. At the
age of q he moved to Indiana with his parents.
Mr. Salisbury was always n very healthy
man, and never knew what ii was TO be sick.
After living in Indiana about fifteen years, he,
with his aged mother, moved back to their
former home. About seven years ago Mrs.
Salisbury had the misfortune to fall and break
her hip. Luther, who witnessed the fall from
the porch, ran to her assistance, and lifting
her gently carried her TO the house. In some
manner he wrenched his back, and hurt him
self internally, causing rheumatism to set in.
He did not pay any attention TO II until about
six months afterwards, when he noticed a
peculiar feeling between his shoulders, and
the shoulder blades became very numb, He
went to see physician and was informed he
had what is known as creeping paralysis. He
doctored about two years and was pronounced
cured.
About year after he quit doctoring, the
same feeling came over him again, and he
made up his mind not TO see doctor but try
to cure himself Mr.. Salisbury was always
fond of fishing, and while on the way to his
favorite pond he'notced q newspaper lying on
the ground. He picked 1t up, and his eye

NORTHERN INDIANA.
Report of Progress In Missionary
Work Ih-re-uore Elders
wanted.

Wuutfu
3I6H MARKET ST., Logansport, Ind,
May 9Th, 1897.
To the Editor:
Your valuable paper reaches US regu-
larly, and we appreciate your EFFORTS III
dispensing Gospel truths
] have seen but little in the columns
devoted to correspondence from mis-
sionaries regarding the Northern States
mission, and nothing a, all The Northern
Indiana conference. This fact induces
me to write you. There are reasons
why the Northern States mission is not
heard from as often as some other sec
tons. One is, that we have not the
time to spare. The work to be done is
so great and the laborers SO few, hat
our time is well taken up. We need
more Elders. Among the people OF the
Northern States are many who VIII hear
the voice OF the true Shepherd when the
chance is offered them. Our Elders are
reaching all classes OF people, and hon
est souls are being admitted into the fold
every day. Blessed, indeed, is the
young man who is honored with call
from God, through His divinely appoint
ed way. And thankful should he be ii
he is SO favored as to be counted worthy
TO labor in the Northern States.
The Northern Indiana conference con-
vened on May Ist and aud, in very fine
hall at Losansport, Indiana. The presi-
dent OF the mission, Elder l.. A. Kelscn,
was with us. Our meetings were very
well attended. The prospects. as COM
pared with six months ago, are very en-
couraging. There were four baptsms
last month, and quite number Of chill
dren blessed. And now comes the joy
full news that others have applied for
baptism; and, further, the prospects are
very favorable for branches OF the
Church to be organized in at least two
places. We have only eleven Elders in
our conference at present, but have the
promise OF three more soon. We need
them.
There are great number of cities in
the Northern part of Indiana, ranging
in population from ten to fifty thousand,
and in these cities there has been no
sound OF the Gospel, heard from humble
Elders commissioned to preach it, for
many years. Send us more laborers,
qualified to present the Gospel in plain
ness to an enlightened people, living in
healthiul climate, and their labors will
be crowned with success.
The Elders who are laboring in this
conference are a united band OF ener-
getic, faithful men, and as others come,
they will be heartily welcomed by us
here. Our addresses for the present
are:
Ernest NJ, Boyer. Logansport, Ind.
Joseph E. Carbon, Indianapolis.
Hyrum 5. Arnoldson, Muncie.
John Foote and Geb. Barton, Ander-
son.

alcohol, accompanied by a package OF
grit that ought never to be used on
your teeth at all.
Is 1t a powder? Ten to one again 1t
Is absolutely worthless and you are be-
ing duly taken in through your lack Of
interest in a really important matter.
Is 1t paste? Put it between your
teeth dry and bite on it, Do you not
find 1t loaded with grit? Besides, is its
flavor not sickening?
Paste is the best form for it is the
only form that will accept all the prop
critics essential to the mouth. The
trouble is there is only one paste in the
world that comes up to the ideal stand
ard This one paste is Pearlo-dento,
You will not compare Pearlo-dento
