lEMPTY Headed WOMEN
AND THE CHURCH.
Mrs. Helen Cougars caustie Refer
enoe to Church Movements.

VIII You please listen to thls
The majority OF the women found
in the churches are there because
they are empty headed"
This is che statement Of Mrs Helen
M Cougar 70 Is an answer-an op-
posing answer to the sensational ser.
mon recently preached By the Rev.
W. b Leach, who declared there
would be few il any men in heaven,
the promised land to be peopled by
women. Says Mrs. Cougar
TO be sure, there are more women
han men found in the churches, but
this does not signify that these wo.
men are more pious and more given
TO religious work that counts than the
men who remain outside The pews. The
majority Of The women found in the
churches are there because they are
empty headed They do not care a
rap for true religion, and nine-tenths
Of them could not repeat a thought ut
tered by the pastor in the hour they
have dozed in the pews. They go to
church for a mild and easy sort Of
entertainment, for they are not men
tally strong enough TO apply them
selves to self entertainment, and they
go to church to see and be seen, and
to prevent being bored to death by
themselves.
"Not one woman in a hundred can
tell the first tenet Of the church creed
20 which she has subscribed for years.
Surely, il her religion was well found
ed she would know her creed. If she
happens to know anything of it she
learned It, like a parrot, in a Sunday
school when a child. and she can give
no intelligent elucidatlon Of the same

American locomotives are hauling

lean steel rails. Our machinery is sold
all over the world. A great American
remedy, Hostetter's Stomach Bitters

parts of the globe where dyspepsia
and indigestion thrive. Like all Amcri
can products, it is honest. and does just
what 1t claims to do. The most stub
born cases of constipation, biliousness
nervousness, liver and kidney troubles
must yield to it. 1t is the most perfect
remedy ever devised for weak stom
