FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH.
Provision Made to Meet It's Years
Indebtedness.

The Board of Trustees of the First
Baptist Church, in summing up their
accounts incidental to entering on the
work Of the new year, has found that
during the year just closed there had
accumulated an Indebtedness to the
Treasurer and others of $50.
The offer of the pastor at the Sun
day morning service to reduce his sal
ary was promptly refused by the
church, and means sufficient to cover
the entire indebtedness were at once
provided. The enthusiasm displayed
speaks louder than words, as showing
the love and esteem in which the pas
tor is held and the financial and spirit
ual standing of the church.

ond decade was usually hot in the
southern part of the State, with thun-
derstorms and high winds.
September was cooler than usual with
widespread winds The grapes upon
the drying trays were frequently IN
danger, and many rain warnings We're
issued general rain occurred on the
last day of September. Fruit was
nearly all cured
The first crop Of grapes was unuSu-
ally heavy. Flowing and seeding began
in the Sacramento and San Joaquin
Valleys. Seeding on summer falloW
was in progress. Citrus fruits began
to color. The mean rainfall was more
than one inch above the normal.

December was unusually dry and

absence of rain and such protracted
cold were unusual at this time OF the
year The following table shows the
lowest temperatures so far as known
at different points. An average section
minimum is also given, showing the

In some localities it was only by con-
tinued and energetic work with
smudges that the oranges We're saved
There was a general concensus Of opln-

the greatest value. There We're num-
Der of records where the temperatures
were raised from % to % dgees.
From a careful study of reports, II
would seem that while the minimum
temperatures recorded during the cold
period were not quite so low in most
sections as those of 1890, yet its Ions
continuance would seem to make the
condition equally severe. The fact that
the damage is reported as less than IN
1895 is probably due to the more eX-
tensive efforts at protecting.

The time that 1t costs to get
help when you are sick some
times counts. But when you
can get the help that you
know you want before the
case gets very bad you ought
to do it. You have weak and
faltering limbs. HUDYAN will
cure them. If you use HUD-
YAN your walk will be as
firm and straight as that of
any one on earth. You have
noises in the ears. That
means nervous exhaustion.
But HUDYAN stops that in
a week. You find that you
are suffering-as you knew
you would. suffer when you
did wrong years ago. HUD-
YAM will undo all the wrong
that you have done yourself.
To-day you are all run down.
Use HUDYAN and see what
a different man you will be in
a week. All the drains stop
almost Immediately. But you
must remember that you can
get HUDYAN only from the
Hudsonian doctors. Circulars
and testimonials telling you
all about its grand work are
yours for the asking. And it
doesn't make any difference
as to whether you write or
call at the Institute. If you
can call do so. If you can
not, write. Let no one tell
you that your case is hope
less. 1t is not. HUDYAN is
equal to the task. They tell
you that you have had
chances and faculties, and
that having abused them you
are to remain a poor, puny
mortal. That; is all nonsense.
HUDYAN viii make man
out of you again in a week.
Try and find out about it. 1t
has done 1t for others. You
are no different TO the ordi-
nary run of men.
