Squibs From Webster.

Let the churches return to |
Gods plans and methods and |
they will find great success
along all lines of the Lords
work.
Plans and methods-We are
living IN an age of planning and
research, but the
best plans and the most approx
ed methods of doing the Lords
work have failed, because the
Lord was not in them.
We know churches which
have planned for revivals and
upbuilding and have used the
most approved modern methods,
and thereby added great mum
bers to their membership that
are dead. They have built
with wood, has and stuble."
Let the churches begin by
repentance toward God, not
toward themselves like Esau,
and have faith in the Lord
Jesus Christ. and there will be
a great revival Of Glove, Joy
and peace" flowing into their
souls from the Holy Spirit, aud
sinners will be converted unto
God.
If some of the churches had
as much faith in the Lord Jesus
Christ, as they have in their
preacher, they would be Il
power for good in this world,
and they would not be so often
changing preachers, and if the
ministers had more faith in the
Lord Jesus, they would not be
so often seeking new fed S.

A FEW REASONS
Which Are Rapidly Making a
New Catarrh Cure Famous.

StuaIt's Catarrh Tablets, the new ca
tarrh cure, has the following advan-
tages over other cataiTh remedies:
First These tablets contain no co,
caine, morphine on any other injurious
drug and are as safe and beneficial for
children as for adults; this Is an i'm,
portant point when II is recalled that
many catarrh remedies do contain
these very Objectionable ingredients.
Next: Being In tablet form this
remedy does not deteriorate with age,
or an exposure to the mir as liquid
preparations invariably DO.
Next; The tablet form not only pre-
serves the medicinal properties but
IL Is far more convenient to carry
and to use at any time when the tab.
let will entirely supersede liquid medl-
clnes as 1t has already done IN the
medical department of the United
States army.
Next: No secret is made of the COM
position of Stuarts. Catarrh Tablets;
they contain the active principles of
Eucalyptus bark, req gum, blood root
and. hydrastin, all harmless antlsep-
ties which, however, are death to ca
tarrhal germs wherever found, be-
cause they eliminate them from the
blood.
Next: You can not cure catnrrR
by local applications to the nose and
thront, because these are simply local
symptoms and such treatment can not
possibly reach the real seat of catarrh-
nj disease which Is In the blood; for
this renson inhalers, douches, sprays
and powders never really cure catarrh,
but simply give Temporary relief which
dose of plain salt and water will do
just AS well.
Catarrh must he driven out Of the
system, out of the blood, by an in
ternal remedy because an internal
remedy IL the only kind which
can be assimilated into the blood.
Stuarts Catarrh Tablets do this bet
ter than the old form of treatment be,
cause they contain every safe specific
known to modern science In the anti
septic form of the disease.
Next: The use OF inhalers, and spray
Ing apparatuses, besides being mef-
fective and disappointing, is expensive,
while complete treatment OF Stuart 3
Catarrh Tablets can be had at any
drug store In the United States and
Canada for 80 cents. l-f-'

PLEASANT
Surprise at the Grand

A Show That Was First Class All
Through.

The Dewey Extravaganza COM
pany fully lived up to the standard
set by the glowing press notices that
had preceded its appearance here, and
gave performance at the Grand,
Friday night that was first class in ev-
cry respect.
The musical features were excellent,
the girls of the chorus pretty and
tuneful, and the costumes and scenery
for the second part were handsome.
The first part consisting of vaudeville
acts did not contain weak number,
and the earnest efforts OF the artists
were met half way by highly appre-
ciative. though small audience
Acrobatic turns, musical acts and
funny sklts made up an olio that has
never been excelled here In an or
ganizaion Of the kind, and despite
the meagerness of the house, a show
was given that satisfied every one.
