DR.. Talmage's Testimony

All right thinking men are ready to give
their sympathy and encouragement to
whatever promotes the health and happi
ness of humanity; that lifts up the fallen
and enables them to help themselves. The
church can never be jealous of the good
that temperance societies, charitable or
CARNATIONS and the like are doing to de-
stroy drunkenness and relieve suffering.
She has her work to do and they have
theirs When they have done their best,
the church's spiritual mission remains un-
disturbed. She alone can teach men about
heavenly things, the divine life that comes
from above, and the heaven hereafter
Science, rightly directed, is a powerful
ally of the church. Science that seeks
for the cause of disease and then applies
the remedy, that discovers the secret
forces OF nature and utilities them for the
good of mankind--surely this is a most
laudable work. The church bids all such
godspeed.
Kelley work than the ministers of the
gospel. We don't know of a single one
who is not in hearty sympathy with it.
DR.. T. Dewitt Talmage, who breaches to
more people than any minister in Amerl-
ca, his sermons being read by millions, in
addressing the patients at the Kelley In
stitute Dwight ILL.,, a few years ago,
said:
In my church in Brooklyn, there are Sit
ting before me Sabbath by Sabbath men
who once were under the serfdOm of
strong drink, but are now clothed and in
their minds. and when | say, What has
been their history?" they say, I'VE were
restored through the Kelley Cure.
| am nightly impressed with this whole
Kelley Cure.
There will not be neighborhood in the
United States or in the world that Will
not be blessed by it.
What very unfair thing it is to con-
denim a whole system because one man
fails in it,
Hundreds of thousands of men who be-
long to the church have fallen. is that
anything against the church? No. And II
fifty per cent, il seyenty-fiye per cent,
under this cure went back, and only
twenty five per cent. were sayed-such a
discovery and such a cure, ought to be
extolled throughout all the earth and all
the heavens.
This world has so many troubles, so
many struggles, it wants all the help 1T
can get, human and divine. We want
the grace Of God and we want surgery
and we want the Keelev Cure.
There are certain things that the grace
of God doesn't propose to do.
Never let the time come in my history
when cease to extol the grace OF God,
but there are other men who need some
thing besides that DR.. Kelley struck the
keynote when he said This evil is a
disease"
I have now in my mind a young man
who had broken his fathers heart and
his mothers heart. He was bolstered up
and lie fell--he was put in an inebriate
asylum and fell; everything tried with
him possible. He became a converted
man, joined the church; but this awful
disease drew him down and down, and
there seemed no cure. He is redeemed
today. The Kelley Cure saved him, and
nothing else under heaven would
We cannot read it down, we cannot talk
it down; it will become triumphant and
be recognized in all the land and all the
lands Of the earth. 1t has on it the mark
of the approval Of the Lord God Almighty
DR.. Keeley's finger is on the world, and
I shall do all in my power to tell the
world so. l am satisfied now, for have
seen Kelley, Dwight, and the Double
| Chloride of Gold Cure.
DIR. Talmage's prophecy is being happi-
| ly fulfilled There are few communities
in our land in which DR.. Keeley's won
ance, sunshine and happiness to victims
of whiskey and morphine. 1t has succeed
ed where family pride, resolution and
other means have failed because it has
struck at the root of the trouble. Drunk
enness is physical disease and must be
treated as such. Dr. Kelley did not put
the virtue into the chemicals which he
combined so skilfully. Who put it
there? 1t cannot be dishonoring to God te
avail ourselves of the remedies which He
has put within our reach and given us
intelligence to understand instead Of ask
ing Him to work miracle for our bene-
fit.
The Kelley Institute at Greensboro is
second to none for the high character OF
it's work. There is nc better place in the
country to take the treatment. All the
surroundings are pleasant and home-like
Men are born with two eyes and only
one tongue in order that they should
