GREAT QUESTIONS.
Rev. Mr.. Nuiiing breaches His Second Sermon In
The Series on Timely Topics.

At the Union Congregational church
last evening. a large congregation
heard Rev. Wallace Nutting preach
his second sermon i'm the series on
Great Questions" and he said in part
that purpose in order and arrange
ment appears as we look about us.
This is the argument Of the end, prob
ably the strongest intellectual argu-
ment. This. however, doesn't prove a
conscious intelligence i'm the order of
the universe 1t doesn't prove eternity
or an infinite God. Nevertheless, IL is a
very satisfactory argument TO great
many persons.
with others 1t may form a great
wave of cumulative testimony. What
appears to me the strongest argument
is what is called the argument from
the nature of mantle anthropological
argument This takes US to personality.
Disinterested love needs 10 be explain
ed. We must explain not only the low
est. but the highest man. You go down
10 the shore and find an oyster You
might make somebody believe the oys-
ter made itself but / don't think YOU
could make good man believe it.
Somebody has said Conscience is an
invisible Moses speaking from an eN-
ternaI Sinai Conscience rs rcgnant
power. 1t cannot be- explained except
bV the existence of a good God.
Then there is the moral argument.
When you can get an argument that
proves a personal being of intelligence,
YOU must crown that being with con-
science and holiness.

EVENING SCHOOL ATTENDANCE.
A Marked Falling OF Noted, Particularly in The
toher Grades Nj. NhllsmOres RepOH

According TO the figures furnished by
the school department there is fall
ing off i'm the attendance at the even
ing schools. particularly in the higher
grades. 1t is found from the record of
the eighth week i'm the schools that the
high school is pa short of last year.
the advanced schools are 20 short, and
the common schools are a triie more
than last year i'm attendance. The cook
ing schools are not kept up at all this
year, making 265 short in that direc-
zion.
According to visiting Principal Whit
temore, the recorded average attend
ance in evening schools this year does
not show what the attendance really
is, for the reason that on several weeks
there has been weather on one evening
and sometimes on two evenings in the
week which made IL practically mpos-
sible 10 attend school. The natural ue-
crease in attendance as the year ad-
Vances will result at the end of this
week in the cutting Oft of several of
the teachers. Six of the teachers Will
go into the day schools on new ap-
pointments and a dozen or fifteen more
will be dropped at the end OF the week,
i'm order To reduce the force of teachers
After that probably no more Will be
dropped until the end of the year.
1t has been decided that on account
of starting late. the common evening
schools will run about a month later
than usual this year, while the highest

will run over a month later Ii VIII

viii Enable Them TO Regain Strength.
Try This Scientific Rebuiider, and See u
What We Claim for II Is Not So.
" You are Not thoroughly Satisfied
with the Action of Vino, We Will
Return Your Money

When any one has reached an age
where they are ON the downward path
or life, something should be given To
help Nature husband the declining
strength. Old people frequently resort
10 stlmulants for this purpose. ~-Stimu-
.lants are useful sonnet mes in cases Of
the most extreme weakness, but there
is always that awful atter-eifact.
What is needed more particularly is
tonic that brings renewed vigor. and
one that directly aids in the creation Of
new and healthy tissue. fhe one tonic
above all others that viii do this, and
do il surely. is Vinol, Wine OF Cod Liver
oil. Vinol, by it's favorable action
upon the stomach. enables this organ
20 obtain the proper nourishment from
the food TO make new and healthy flesh,
rich. pure blood and sound muscles.
The effect of Ninol you will find To
he sure and very quickly perceptible.
The fact that Vinol is most delicious
20 the taste, and unlike all cod liver
oil preparations. contains no fat or
grease. makes il an appetizing luxury.
Mr.. +. II. Story, 2l0A School street.
SOmerville, Mass, says: II had been
confined to the house most of the win
ter. My doctor recommended that |
should try Ninol. Let me say right
here that Ninol is all right as far AS
taste and smell goes. So pleasant did
Vinol taste that | could not conceive
how il would do any one any good. II
has done me good. however. | am now
gaining flesh and eat and sleep as a
well man should. / feel like a boy
again. Your Vinol deserves good luck"
This is only one case of many that
we have heard OF. We have every rea-
son to indorse Vinol as thoroughly as
we do. We will refund, 70 any one who
is not sat sfied that Ninol does all we
claim for 1t, the money they pay for the
remedy.

The big towboat Charlie Mcdonald,
built at Pittsburg in 1871 by John V.
Mcdonald and John Wilhelm, Jr., was
cut down by the ice at Galconda, Ills,
Tuesday. She is in the water up to her
hurricane roof. The boat is a good
one, and is at present owned by the
Barnetts, of Cincinnati. Capt. /. n.
Bunton, who arrived this morning from
Louisville, brought the information to
Pittsburg, and much regret was eX-
pressed. So far as could be learned
the boat was lying at tie bank, having
tied up on account of heavy ice. The
Mcdonald had the same power as the
towboats Cruiser and Enterprise. 1t is
not known if the boat can be f1oated,
but it is doubtful, on account of the
heavy ice floating in the river there.
The Pittsburg towboat Smoky City is
