AND SCIENTIST. WILL SEND FREE, TO
THE AFFLICTED, THREE BOTTLES

EDiEs TocuRE CONSUMPTION
AND ALL LuNoTRoueLEs.


AND ALL LUNG TROUBLES.
Nothing could be fairer, more philan,
thropic or carry more joy to the afflicted,
than the offer of r. A. Slocum, M. c., of
1888 Pearl street, New York City.
Confident that he has discovered an alb
solute cure for consumption and all pull
nlonary complaints, and TO make its great
merits known, he will send, free, three
bottles of medicine, to any reader of The
Midland Journal who is suffering from
chest, bronchial, throat and lung troubles
or consumption.
Already this "new scientific course of
medicine" has permanently cured thou
sands of apparently hopeless cases.
The Doctor considers it his religious
duty-a duty which he owes to humanity
to donate his infallible cure.
Offered freely is enough to commend it.
and more so is the perfect confidence of
the great chemist making the proposition
He has proved the dreaded consumption
to be durable disease beyond any doubt.
There will be no mistake in sending
the mistake will be in overlooking the
generous invitation. He has on file in his
american and European laboratories tes-
timonials of experience from those cured,
in all parts of the world.
Don't delay until it is too late. Address
T. A. Slocum M. c., 9S Pine street, New
York. and when writing the Doctor, please
give express and post office address, and
mention reading this article in The Mid
land Journal.

THE GIRLS ALLOWANCE.
1t Is Her Right and, at the Same
Time, Teaches Her the Proper
Use of Money.

Every self-respecting woman, be
she maid or wife, has natural and
intense dislike to ask her father or
husband for every penny she needs, :"
says Edward Box, writing in the La
dies Home Journal, on Giving Allow
ances to Girls" Nor is the feeling
lessened by the fact that the money
can be had for the asking and is al
ways given ungrudgingly. 1t is the
asking which women dislike. They
justly recoil from it, and men ought to
understand 1t better than they do.
1t should be said that the husband
who refuses to give his wife regular
allowance is rapidly becoming the ex-
ception. But there are still too many
fathers who withhold an allowance
from their daughters. If it be true
that the average girl has no idea of
the value of money, how will she ever
gain better knowledge of its worth

AMERICAN WOMEN IN THE PULPIT.

"TOAfEN as ministers is the subject of
w an interesting article in the Chau-
tauquan by Rev. Anna Howard
Shaw DR.. Shaw writes without any feeling
in the way of resentment against the
churches that exclude women from their
ministry. She is merely telling facts.
By the beginning of the twentieth CEN
fury DR.. Shaw believes there should be at
least 1900 women preaching the Gospel in
the United States. It is claimed by the
United Brethren that it was their denomina
ton that ordained the first woman in the
Christian ministry. She is Rev. Lydia Sex
ton. Miss Sexton was given holy orders in
1851 and worked in the church as minister
until 1890. But it is generally accepted that
the first ordination of woman was that Of
Antoinette Brown, who was graduated from
the theological school at Oberln in 1850. but
who was refused license to preach. OF
women ordained by the Congregational de-
nomination attention is called to Rev. Annis
Ford Eastman, now assistant to Rev. T. R.
Beecher in Elmira.
There are but three ordained women in
tie regular Baptist church-Mary G. Jones,

of the state of Washington, ordained in 1882;
Frances L. Townslcy, Nebraska, ordained in
1885, and Edith Hill Booker, Kansas, or
dained in 1894. The Baptists, says DR.. Shaw,
discourage women from entering their min
istry. Mrs. Booker was for three years pas
tor of the First Baptist church of Pittsburg,
Kan, before her marriage with Mr.. Booker.
The Free Will Baptists have II ordained
and nine licensed women ministers. Women
have preached in this denomination ever
since the beginning of the century. AS early
as 1915 Clarissa Il. Danforth was licensed
preacher, but the first regularly ordained
Free Will Baptist woman minister was Miss
Anna Bartlett, of Paw Paw, Mich. Rev.
Ellen c. Copp is the principal of Hillsdale
college, and is very popular with the stu
dents.
The Christian church has but five or six
ordained women preachers. The Presby-
terrain church refuses to allow women to en-.
ter its ministry, but accepts the work OF
women in all other departments of church
work. The Methodist Protestant church has

ordained several women, and women are
admitted on equal terms as lay delegates to
the general conferences. DR.. Shaw herself
is a graduate of the theological school of the
Boston university, and on being rejected as
a L.inister by the Methodist Episcopal
church she was ordained for the Methodist
Protestant church in Tarrytown in 1880.
The Methodist Episcopal church, although it
never ordained women, licensed them until
1880. Even this concession was then re.
pealed. Women, however, have acted and
now act as evangelists and missionaries in
the Methodist Episcopal church. Con-
spicuous among these workers is Elizabeth
W.. Greenwood, national evangelistic super
intendent of the w. CT. U. DR.. Shaw says
that it was the life desire of the late Frances
E. Willard to be minister. but her church
would not permit it.
