recommending 1t to all sufferers from
maladies of this kind" One Minute
Cough Cure affords immediate relief

Point Which Pre-.
vents Unity.
"A Basis For a Chris
tian UniOn."
Rev. J. 6. SIayter Speaks on a
Great Question.

The subject of Rev. ]. G. Slayter's
sermon Sunday night at the First
Church of Christ was "a Basis for
Christian Union" This was the last
of a series of Sunday evening ser
mons on The Church" The audience
present completely filled the auditor
ium and overfowed into the Sunday
school room. Rev. Sayter said in
part:
This basis Of Christian Union can
never be n compromise. 1t was at
tempted to settle the slavery question
by compromise, but it finally took the
Civil War to settle 1t. You can never
settle moral or religious question on
compromise basis. These questions
are right or wrong. and nothing is ever
settled until 1t is settled right.
First of all we must find basis
of union In which we can all believe.
| honor all who have desired and en-
dcavored to bring about the union of
Gods people, for one of the saddest
things today is Gods people torn asun-
der and disunited But all creeds that
have been presented by men have
made the opinion of these men the
basis for union. Instead of these
creeds helping to unite the church they
have invariably resulted in dividing
the church. Human made creeds will
never settle the question of church
division. If the church is ever brought
together it must he upon some basis
other than the creeds of modern times.
Christ and his apostles insisted on
the people believing but one thing
faith and loyalty to Christ. The early
disciples without a, single exception
preached faith in Jesus Christ. Every
Protestant church today is preaching
this, and since we all believe and
preach this, 1t seems to me that here
we ought to find a sufficient basis to
meet one another as Brethren.
Can we agree as to the methods of

MINERS.
They May Soon Return
to Work.
Long Strike Is to be Broken at
Last.
Especial Correspondence


Columbus, Dec. At now seems
probable that the big coal strike which
has been on in Columbiana county
since last April will be settled at a
date not far distant. The operators
have agreed to meet with the men,
and hope is expressed by the officials
of the miners organization here that
this joint conference will result in a
settlement of the trouble.
In the neighborhood Of 500 men are
on strike and they have been re-
ceiving about $1,000 monthly from the
union. For time 1t was feared the
strike would extend to the Massillon
district as the operators there control
the output of the Columbiana county
mines, but 1t seems the danger of the
trouble assuming such proportions Is
past.
The men struck because the opera
tors refused to pay them for dead
work" The claim set up by the opera
tors was that this kind of labor was
not paid for elsewhere and for this
reason they objected to granting the
demands of their employees.

WORRIED
Look on Janitor's
Face
Transformed to Joyous,
Beamins Smile.
School Board Gave Him a Long
Expected Raise.

The janitor Of the Miller school at
tended the meeting of the School
Board, Tuesday night, and during
one part of the deliberations, his face
was an accurate mirror of his
thoughts, and his hopes and fears.
The way it happened was this:
Mr.. Davis recommended that the
salary of the Miller school janitor be
raised from $50 to $50, and that Of the
North Hill man who now also receives
$50, be raised to $50. These same
recommendations had been made at
other times, and the committees had
failed to act In the manner desired
by the janitors themselves. 1t seems
that the Board had failed to set the
salaries for these schools when the
janitors were hired.
At that time only few rooms were
in use and the understanding was
that when the schools should be in
creased in size, the salaries for the
janitors would be increased accord
ingly. The latter matter was never
attended to, and the Miller school
janitor was naturally anxious that
something happen.
The members of the Board were
divided as to the advsability of the
increase. They were afraid that the
janitors of the other schools would
also find that their salaries were too
small, once increases in wages began.
Half of the members talked in the
matter before it came to a vote, and
the janitor's face was a study. When
1t finally carried, his satisfaction
could not be repressed, and he left
the building with most expansive
smile.
The salary of G. o. Kerstetter, prln-
cipal of the night school, was also
increased from 50 per night, to $3.50,
ut this meeting.

are usually worked-out people. They
are worn'out because they are using up
iuore energy than they can store up
every day. Human energy comes from
food. Food is the fuel of the body, and
its heat is converted into motion. When
the fire under the steam engine dies
down from want Of fuel the power gives
out, the engine slows down and ul-
timately stops, When the food fuel of
the engine of the body Is reduced the
power gives out, and III time the body
stops activity, because it Is starved. But
If there be abundant fuel in the fire-box
OF the steam engine without proper COM
bustion, there is a loss of power Just the
same. And that's the way it Is with the
man. He may have abundant food, but
yif II Is not properly digested and assimil-
ated, and 30 converted into blood, the
power gives ont, the strength fails.
Food digested and assimilated furnishes
the power that runs the heart, the lungs,

admission into the church? Men differ
little as to how faith comes. but no
one doubts as to faith being necessary.
We all believe that repentance and
baptism are necessary. There Is no
real difference as to the steps neces-
sary to get into any Protestant church.
1t takes faith, repentance, baptism.
Since we all require the same things
it seems to me that We should not
keep apart.
'"There is one knotty problem, and
that Is baptism. Some say 1t should
be performed by sprlnkling, some by
pouring and others by immersion.
Each one is honest. Supposing per-
son should bring a letter to this church
stating that John Brown has confessed
Christ ten years ago, had been
sprinkled and had since then lived
consistent Christian life, we could not
accept him until he had been i'm
mersed, neither would any Baptist
church accept him. But supposing he

fessed Christ ten years ago, had been
immersed and had since then lived a

Protestant church in this city,
but what would accept him. There is
no controversy regarding immersion;
we are united on that but divided on
sprinkling and pouring. AS n basis
of union we are all united on that
point. IF we want to.unite the church
we must unite upon the things we are
not divided upon-these are faith, re-

II is that 1t is waste of time, money and
