Rev. James Benninger Of the Hamp-
ton Street Methodist Episcopal church.
preached an excellent sermon yester-
day morning on the subject Lend a
Hand" taking his text from Acts iii.
rs: And He took him by the right
hand and lifted him up"
He said il is quite possible that this
lame man could have arisen without
the assistance of Peter, as the Lord
Jesus would have been sufficient for
him. 1t has been suggested that the
apostle gave him his hand because
he could not help it. and 1t is our
duty to lend a hand whenever we can,
for God lifts us into the dignity of
being co-workers together with Him.
In the field of Christian activity there
is much lameness, idleness and many
crippled. These must be dealt with.
A helping hand should also be given
TO the regular services of the church
by hearty and loyal support. Inter
mittent attendance at church hinders
it's growth. Success depends not half
so much on the minister as upon the
members. There is absolutely no sub
stitute for the human hand There is
sympathy in the delicate and kindly
grasp OF Ihe ndnu, lneTe Is magic,
music and power in il. Estimate the
value of a prayer meeting and you
would not be without it.
Energy creates action, action keeps
the wheels moving. and we need the
constant. perpetual inbreathing of the
Holy Spirit. A helping hand should
also be extended to the Sunday school.
n the boy of today is the man OF to-
morrow the Sunday school of today is
the church of tomorrow. 1t is designed
TO ingraft into the young heart 1.-THE
incorruptible seed" of the Word of God.
Lend a hand TO this vitalizing and re-
generating power, and we shall be
amply repaid for all the time and toll
expended.
Lend a hand to the Epworth league
also. 1t has more than met the ex-
pectation of its founders. but we can
not expect it to prosper and give It no
attention. If all lend a helping hand
the church will triumph. walking and
leapinS and praising God.

FELL DOWN THE STAIRS.
As a Result John Bolaski May Be
Seriously Injured.

John Bolaski, who boards with his
brother, Michael Bolaski, in Green's
place, is at the Lackawanna hospital,
suffering from the effects of fall down
fight of stairs about $50 o'clock last
night.
In falling he struck his head just be-
hind the left ear and a confusion re-
suited. Blood flowed from the ear ana
the injured man was unconscious when
friends picked him up.
He was removed to the Lackawanna
hospital. where a cursory examination
was made. There does not seem to be
any fracture, but his condition was
such as to prevent a careful diagnosis.
Friends had been entertained at the
BolasN home during the evening and
drinks were served. This latter fact
entered into the complication of the
injured mans condition.

Nature makes the cures

Now and then she gets

helping out.
Things get started in the

Something is needed to
check disease and start the

GRAPHITE FACTORY.
Scranton Men Are Figuring on Es-
tablishing One Here.

Hon. NJ. f. Mcdonald and j. j. Mur-
ray, of Dunmore, left on Saturday for
Ration, New Mexico, to arrange for the
development Of q large graphite and
copper property which they, County
Treasurer NJ. j. Kelly and several
others from this region have secured
control of. The tract comprises 5000
acres.
If practicable, and they believe it is.
the raw product will be brought here
for manufacture. Ninety per cent. of
the digging is pure graphite and the
other ten per cent. is composed of mar
ketable material. AS the market will
be principally in the east, it is figured
that it would be economical to bring
the raw material here, where manu-
featuring can be conducted cheaper.
