among other things, as follows:

LIVING as FRIENDS OF GOD.

Il Is d high honor to be a servant
Of anobIe earthly master. To be a ia
vOrite servant of a sovereign is in
deed a distinguished honor. But our
divine Master calls us, not servants,
but friends. We are his friends if
ne do whatever he commands us.
What an exalted privilege is ours, OF
being our Saviour's friends! Can

Can Be Cured,
Statement of a Noted Physician.

The astonishing statement that
Asthma can be cured, coming from
so we'll known an authority as DR..
Rudolph Schiffmann, will be of in
terest to sufferers from Asthma,
Phthisic and Hay Fever. The Doc
tors offer, coming as it does from a
recognized authority, who during a
practice of over 80 years has treated
and cured more cases of Asthma
and it's kindred than any living doc
tor, is certainly a generous one and
an innovation in this age of count
less fraudulent nOstrums. Believing
that the honest way to sell a remedy
is to let those who would buy con-
vince themselves of it's merits before
purchasing, DR.. Schiffmann has au-
thorized this paper to say that he
will send a free trial package of his
remedy, "Schiffmann's Asthma
Cure" to any sufferer who sends his
name on a postal card before March
10th. This remedy has cured thou
sands of cases that were considered
i~ncurable. Being used by inhala-
ton it reaches the seat of the disease
direct, stops the spasm instantly and
insures sweet and refreshing sleep.
A free trial package will convince
the most skeptical. Those desiring
to try a free sample should address

also cured. Altogether fol my whole
family we have used nineteen bottles of
Peruna, and have thus saved $500 in
doctors bills. I am . contractor and
mason by trade, and am known all over
Nebraska. Ihave had q stomach trou-
bic which has been greatly relieved by
your remedy, Peruna, for which I am
still taking it. We thinktti is the great
est medicine on earth."-C. T. Roberts,
Falls City, Nebraska.
MI. T. G.. Walker, Carneiro, Kansas,
writes: "It is with pleasure that 1 re-
port hat I am better than I have been
for many years. I believe Peruna is
without a doubt the best medicine that
was ever used in q family. Ithas cured
my nervousness, with which I had been
afflicted for = great number of years."

By a lucky arrangement, however,
we are prepared to offer this choice
collection of books and magazines,
enough good literature for a years
reading, matter of interest and value
to every member of the family, at a

the world about them can afford to
neglect it.

DO YOUR BEST.

Christ never asks for anything we
osnnot do. But let Us not forget that
he always does expect and require of
each of us the best we can do. The
fsithfulness Christ wants and APP
proves implies the doing of all our
work, our business, our trade, our
daily toll, as we'll as we can. Let no
one think that religion does not APP
plv to private life. 1t applies to the
a you do your most common work
Just as really as to your praying and
keeping of the Commandments.
Whatever your duty is, you cannot
be altogether faithful to God unless
o do your best. To shun any task
is to do Gods badly. To neglect it
is 10 rob God. The universe is not
quite complete without your work
we'll done, however small that work
may be.
The faithfulness which Christ re-
0uires must reach also to everything
we do. 1t takes In the way the child
gets his lessons and recites them,
the way the dressmaker and the
tailor sew their seams, the way the
blacksmith Yields the iron and shoes
the horse, the way the plumber puts
in his pipes, the way the carpenter
builds the house, the way the clerk
represents the goods, and measures
or weighs them. How soon it would
put a stop to all dishonesty, all
fraud, all skimping, all false weights
and measures, all shams, all neglects
of duty, if this lesson were only
learned and practiced everywhere

ment that so many otherwise sensible
and provident people will, for the
neglect of SO simple a precaution as to
have a bottle Of Peruna at hand, bring
upon themselves the needless suffering
and foolish expense that a practitione,
of medicine is forced to witness ever,
day.
AS DOE as the value of Peruna is
fully appreciated by every household,
both as a preventive and cure of these
affections, tens of thousands of lives
will be saved, and hundreds of thou
sands of chronic, lingering cases OF
disease prevented. Peruna is house,
hold safeguard.

All decline in the vigor of religious
life is likely to be gradual. A man
does not fall at once from the heights
of holiness into the depths of sin. In
the eyes of the world he may appear
to do so but the fact is otherwise.
Always there is an inner decay of
conviction and principle before there
is an outward lapse from righteous
ness. Overt wrongdoing is the legiti-
mate product of a lowered spiritual
tone. When fellowship with God
begins to be spasmodio and uncer-
tain, then it is time to look out for
wide departures from the require
ment7 of the moral MISUNDERSTANDING
Christian Advocate.

Correspondence of The Progressive Farmer.
Orange County Alliance met with
COUGHS Sub. on Thursday, January
10th, with our worthy President,
J. J. Squires, in the chair. A very
good crowd of representative farm
mers was present, and much enthu
siasm prevailed.
The paramount issue for discus
sion was the "Re-organizatiOn of the
Alliance" and from the informa-
ton received, it is evident that sew
eral Sub. Alliances will at an early
date be reorganized in this and Dur
ham counties ; several brethren were
present from Durham county. In
teresting speeches we're delivered by
Bro. T. J. Oldham, T. M. Robinson,
Jno. T. Couch, and our esteemed
President, which were greatly en-
joyed by all present.
After the business of the Alliance
was transacted, it was discovered
that Bro. Oldham was getting hun
grv, and Bro. A. ]. Crabtree, Presi-
dent of COUGHS Sub. announced that
dinner was on the ground. The AL
lance then adjourned to meet with
Chestnut Oak Ridge Sub. on Thurs
day, April II, 1901.

carefully prepared by the good

faithful few who will never give up
the organization. The secretary was
instructed to try to secure, at an
early date, the services of Bro. Par

in the county.
The Alliance was saddened to hear
of the death of Bro. W. T. Moffitt,
