How Moody Got ont of 1t.

Many were the interesting expert
ences belonging to the first Northfield
conference called by d. L. Moody One
especially shows Mr.. Moody himself
in his varying phases. 1t was the con-
versation hour at noon, and about 100
men were sitting under the tent on
Round Top
Mr.. Moody, leaning sturdily against
the tent pole, led the meeting. Sudden
ly there came from him the plump
question, Brethren, how many of you
have so grown in grace that you can
bear TO have your faults told?'
Many hands went up. Quick as
flash, but neither sharply nor insult
ingly, Mr.. Moody turned to a young
minister and said:
Brother, you have spoken 10 times
in 10 days here and perhaps shut out
II other good men from speaking"
1t was true. The young man had
been presuming and officious. He had
held up his hand, but he could not bear
TO be chidden, and now he stoutly de-
Tended himself, only making matters
worse. Then another minister broke
forth and berated Mr.. Moody for his
bluntness. The latter blushed, but lis
tened until the rcproof was done. Then
he suggestively covered his face and
spoke through his fingers. Brethren,
admit the fault my friend charges me
with; but, brethren, did not hold up

The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all its stages, and
that is catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure
is the only positive cure known to the
medical fraternity. Catarrh being a
constitutional disease, requires n con-
stitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure is taken internally, acting di-
rectly upon the blood and mucous sur
faces of the system, thereby destroy
ing the foundation of the disease, and
giving the patient strength by build
ing up the constitution and assisting
nature in doing its work. The pro-
pIietors have so much faith in its
curative powers that they offer 800
