Daniel ls known as strong preaoher,
and on this occasion was at his best. His
points wore clear, concise, logical, DEM
onstrating. the gospel of Christ to be
worldwide in its mission. It shall be
preached until every nation and every
individual shall hear the story of the
GROSS. The spirit of CHRIST is q mis-
sionary spirit. Tho supreme sacrifice
for the redemption of the world was
prompted by his love. He can,e to seek
and to save the lost, and commissioned
his disciples to 20 into all the world and
toach all nations. Tho anti-ynission
spirit is necessarily anti Christian. No
short synopsis can do justice to his eble
sermon. lie held tho closest attention
of his large congregation for an hour,
and o lasting impression for good was
made.
In tho afternoon ut 4 o'clock there was
a mass meeting of all the Sunday schools.
Familiar songs were sung, in which all
Joined. Mrs. Herbert and Mrs. Good
gion mado missionary talks especially
adapted to little children, though thoy
were mono tho less interesting to tho
larger folk. Stories were told them of
little children in heathen lands, showing
how unloved they are and uncarod for
and this was contrastod with their own
happy lot The ohildron wore much in
terested and showed thein close alton
ton by promptly answering all questions
asked them. In roply to tho question,
| "Wha5 is a missionary" ono little tot
answered: ga good lady who goes to
China" At tho close of this meoting
Mrs. Goodgion organized n Juvenile So
| ciety with eleven mcmhers. Mrs. s. N.
PitchfOrd was selected as lady manager.
A bcttor selection could not have been
mado. Officers were oloctod as follows:
Miss Gertrude Smith, president; Master
Charlie Pitchford, vice president; Miss
Lille Byrd, corresponding secretary;
tary; Miss Mary Pitohford, treasuror.
Tho children are much Interested in
thoir missionary society, and cannot but
mako 1t success, with tho guidance and
assistance of their efficient lady manager.
Wo fcol sure that tho cause of mis-
sions has been advanced among us, by
this district meeting. Information has
been disseminated concerning tho work
in foreign folds, and tho resources at
home that sustain the work. Agitation,
discussion and education arc tho ac-
knowledged means for bost promoting
tho interests of any popular cause. Tho
presence in our midst of gifted and de-
voted women is in itsclf blessing. Nav
their memory and influence long abide.

At eight o'clock Sunday evening DR..
Daniel spoke earnestly on tho twentieth
century movement of Mcthodism in Eng
land, Canada and tho United Statcs, MAX
ing special reference to the movement
inaugurated among tho Southern Metho-
dists to raise S1,500,000 as free-will Of
foring for tho endowment of our educa-
tional institutions. Tho imperative nc
cossitY for Christian education of tho
highest order was stressed. The age
demands tho highest typo of manhood
and womanhood, and tho training ncces-
sary to their developments can be found
only in schools, colleges and universities
dominated by tho purost religious sonti-
mont. The education of tho head, the
heart and tho hand is necessary to tho
formation of well-roundod character.
llo would not antagonizo any of tho cdu-
cational institutions supported by the
State, but he thought whatever the State
forced from us in taxation for hor insti-
tutions, the love of Christ would con.
strain us to do Us much for tho cause of
minutes, ovory sontonce bristling with
reason and wisdom and carrying convic-
ton to his hearers. Would that he could
present the cause before all our congre-
cations in tho happy manner which ho
did on this occasion. There is little
doubt that tho amount desired
will bo raised, and even tho s., 100000
mark may DO reached. Moreover, tho
season is auspicious for porvading
revival of tho religious and missi onary
spirit.
Brave Men Fall
Victims to stomach, liver and kidney
troubles as woll as women, and all feel
tho results in loss OF appetite, poisons in
tho blood, backacho, nervousness, head
ache and tired, listless, rundown feeling
But there's no need to feel like that.
