LOCAL PREACHERS LEAVE
AFTER A SUCCESSFUL SESSION AT
ASBURY CHURCH.

FAREWELL SPEECHES WE'RE |
Made LAST NIGHT-oFFICERs
ELECTED FOR THE ENSUING
YEAR.
The National Local Preachers Asso-
citation, which has been in session I'M
Asbury M. e. Church for the pas four
days, adjourned last night.
A resolution on temperance, prepared
by Revs. S. H. Cummings, A. II. zim-
merman, James North, d. II. Kemey,
Richard Emmons and G. w. Unl0.e,
was submitted to the convention and
adopted. The resolution appeals to the
General Conference Of the M. e. Church
to call national conference for the
purpose of discussing the best aggres-
sive pans against the liquor traffic.
The report of the Mutual Aid Asso-
citation was presented, but the failure
i'm the financial PLAN of assessments
adopted by that society was apparent.
The association fixed it's plan in ac-
cOrdance with the statistics obtained
from the beading lie insurance com
panies, but it did not take into con-
slderation the advanced age OF its mem
bers The result has been that the
funds of the association have been
growing less annually. The afternoon
was taken up in discussing the future
Of the Aid Society, and the decision
was that new plan Of assessments be
adopted.
In the evening farewell speeches were
made by all the delegates present. The
committee on nominations made its re
port, and the following officers were
elected for the ensuing year:

A LITTLE SUFFERER

Face, Hands and Arms Covered With
Scrofulous Humors How q Cure
Was Effected.
"When five years old my little boy had
scrofula on his face, hands and arms. 1t
was worst on his chin, although the sores
on his cheeks and hands were very bad.
1t appeared in the form of red pimples
which would tester, break open and run
and then scab over. After disappearing
they would break out again. They caused
intense itching and the little sufferer had
to be watched continually to keep him
from scratching the sores. We became
greatly alarmed at his condition. My
wife's mother had had scrofula and the
only medicine which had helpd her was
Hoods Sarsaparilla. We decided to give
g it to our boy and we noted an improve
ment in his case very soon. After giving
him four bottles of Hoods Sarsaparilla
the humor had all been driven out of his
blood and it has never since returned"

You can buy Hoods Sarsaparilla OF al
druggists. Be sure to get only Hoods.
