After speaking of the losses which
the church has sustained he referred to
the growth Of the conception of Chris
tian giving. Not many We're giving out
of competency, but many gladly if
not largely We're learning the luxury
of giving because of guiding their con-
duct by Bible models.
He then spoke of the formation and
growth of spiritual ideas. The trans
formation of the prayer meeting has
been a marvel TO many, and there is a
force of consecrated workers, today, of
which any church might well be
proud. There is no reason for discour-
agement under such conditions. for the
church is strong and is accomplishing
the work for which it exists when it
is developing spiritual life in the man
ner indicated. We live for the purpose
of advancing the Kingdom of Christ.
Its processes are slow. often taxing
patience to its utmost. developing the
very qualities most essential to its life.

It Happened in a Drug Store.

'One day last winter a lady came to
my drug store and asked for a brand
Of cough medicine that 1 did not have
in stock" says Mr. c. r. Grandin, the
popular druggist Of Ontario, n. Y. She
was disappointed and wanted to know
what cough preparation I could recon-
mend. l said to her that 1 could freely
recommend Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy and that she could take
bottle of the remedy and after giving
it fair trial il she did not find it
worth the money to bring back the
bottle and I would refund the price
paid. In the course Of day or two
the lady came back in company with
a friend in need OF cough medicine
and advised her TO buy a bottle OF
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. I con-
slider that very good recommendation
for the remedy" The remedy owes its
great popularity and extensive sale in
q large measure to the personal recon-
mendations Of people who have been
cured by its use. 1t is for sale by Jno.

rev. MT Wyman has not yet accept
ed the cail to become pastor of the
Marlboro church, to which he has been
given cali, as he will sever his con-
nection with the Free Baptist church
mere pefore taking any steps in that
direction. He will probably enter his
new labors the first of December.
Rev. Mr.. Wyman came to this city
II years ago from Roslindale Mass
his first pastorate after graduating
from the Newton Theological school
in 1854. Previous to that he graduated
from Colby in 1881.
Since being in this city he has not
simply been pastor Of the Free Rap-
list church, but has been one of the
most loyal citizens Of Augusta. He has
not only identified himself with the re-
ligious work of the city, but also with
the educational life. for he was at orc
time member of the school board. He
was also chaplain of the Insane Hospi-
tai for number of years Concerning
his report as member of the school
board. the Maine Farmer said at the
time it was issued:
THE report of the Augusta schools
prepared by Rev. j. NJ Wyman. for
several years supervisor of schools in
the rural districts. has just been issued
from the press of the Maine Farmer
1t is the most complete and elaborate
report on the subject ever issued from
the educational department of this city.
II will stand as a lasting monument to
Mr.. Wyman's devotion to the duties of
the position and of his capacity to dis
charge its duties. We trust this vol
ume will find its way to the homes of
the people. who, after they have read
it. will agree with us in our estimate
Of its value
Although many of the older members
of the church have died an unusually
large number Of Pensioners have
moved away from the city, the mem
bership is kept up so that II is larger
now than when he assumed char. , OF
the parish. While the church will re-
gret losing him as a pastor, the city
will also regret that il is to lose him
as one OF its citizens.
He said. yesterday, that he should
always feel strongly attached 10 the
city and its people. for some Of his
children have known no other place Of
residence. Mrs. Wyman. too. has won
for herself place in the hearts of the
people in the parish as we'll as in the
city. and has been of great assistance
to Rev Mr.. Wyman in his work.

Mr.. Ross says that the hunters have
been having hard luck down his way
so far-not from any lack of game, but
on account of the weather. For the
first few DAYS of the season it was so
noisy that it was little use to try TO
track the woods. Then came the rains
and so heavy was the downpour that
since then the swamps have been knee
deep and the best hunting grounds
have been almost impossible. But now
that the drought and the flood are past
he is looking for good amount OF
game to be taken. Moose nave not

times in connection with discussions
of the representation of the district in
the future.
William Mccormick, who led the
Campbell forces in the Ohio county
delegation; John Kindelberger, Camp
bell Richards and Carl Hamilton were
conspicuous throughout the big row,
and Emanuel Buckman, as chairman
of the delegation, was on the floor
nearly all the time, but generally in
a peaceful role. His declarations that
he wanted to make statements under
the plea of personal privilege were
timely and effective till Chairman Sha-
nor discovered the intent to harry
Bradley, when Buckman's usefulness
as an opposer ceased.
Dovener, in his speech after the
convention, said he would speak in
every county in the district, and he
openly invited Democrats to ask him
as many questions as they could. This
is mentioned merely that the captain
may not forget that he gave such an
invitation and become testy, as he has
been known to do, when Democrats
take him at his word.
