The guests are gone the smile slips from
the face Of the hostess and she gives up
to the pain which racks her body Many
a woman entertains and wears smile
while her back aches and her nerves
culver with pain. Surely any medicine
which offers relief to women would be
worth trial under such conditions. But
when the woman's medicine, DR.. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription, is offered with the
proof of efficacy in thousands of well
attested cures, what excuse can then be
offered for suffering longer?
DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescription
makes weak women strong and sick
women well. 1t dries enfeeb1ing drains,
heals Inflammation and liberation and
cures female weakness.

REPENTANCEs ON DEATHBEDg.
Local CIerEymen Disagree With DIR.
Hnrcnurf rs to Their Value


Hurcourt AS to Their Value
Many Washington cIergymen do not
agree with the Rev. Dr.. Harcourt, of
Baltimore, who, in an address delivered
10 Medical students of the Monumental
City, advised them to exclude cIergymen
from sick rooms. because their offices to
the peniteut dying were of no avail. DIT.
Harcourt declared that the supplications
for the dead was useless puff of pray
eT- The statement caused no end of
comment in eccIesias ticaI circles of all
denominations. A number of local preach
ers say Dr. HarCOUTts argument IS alb
surd, and that it should not be advanced
/ By a disciple OF Christ As to the real
value Of what might be termed death
bed repentance there is an apparent diff
ference of opinion There is a consen-
sus of sentiment, however, to the efct
that IF repentance is sincere il is sufi-
Gent TO save al any time
The portion of Dr. Harcourt-s address
to the yUuns physicians which has caused
so much comment was as follows.
The sick bed IS not the place for the
transformation of the lives of individuals
II Is character which tells here and here
after. and not The little puff of prayer at
the last few moments which goes I'd
when preacher IS called To prepare a
man for death
I urge you to be careful about allow
ing clergymeH IT the sick room They
are 4 great cause of alarm tiptoeing
around with little black books under their
arms and whispering to the sick and
! dying person Are You ready ."
The Rev o b RamsdelI. Of the North
Presbyterian Church, was amused at the
! detineau0B of a preacher in the sick room
presented by the Baltimore divine
DIR. HaTCOUrtS representation of a
/ clergyman in the sick room is rather a
( caricature, said Mr. RamsdeII The
preacher of today seeks to comfort and
( encourage the suffering Physicians are
usually glad TO have a minister in the
: sick chamber As to the value of death
bed repentance. it is not considered as
1 satisfactory Occasionally a case of
genuine repentance occurs. When death
( approaches man he is physically weak
/ and has, as a rule, lost interest in things
He cares little about the future.
/ The Jewish rabbi Is neither expected
/ nor required to visit the dying for the
( purpose Of hearing Il repentance" said
Rabbi Stern, of the Washington Hebrew
Congregation There is no mediator be-
/ tween the Jew and his God. 1t is custom

and such prayers as are prescribed in the

Can Sing Religious Hymns.

(Wm. E. Curtis in Chicago Reeord)
The school board of the District OF Co
lumbia has been agitated for several
months bv u protest from certain agnos-
tics and other citizens against the use
of a song book known as THE Students
Hymnal," which contains several familiar
religious hymns Us we'll as patriotic songs
and choruses appropriate for children s
voices. The" object to the use OF any
book which contains religious hymns, but
protest particularly against those which
are most popular among the Christian
denominations, such as Nearer, Ny God,
to The proposition of those who cntend
Looks Up TO Thee" and particularly that
hymn beginning:
Holy, Holy. Holy, Lord God Almighty
Early in the morning my song shall rise 10
thee"
because il is addressed 10 the Trinity and
IS therefore offensive to all who do not be-
lieye in that dogma.
After Ions discussion in the neWspa-
pers and elsewhere the board Of education
laid the protest upon the table and adopt
ed an elaborate report i'll which it agrees
TO the proposition of these who contend
that -sectarlan religion should not be en-.
braced in school exercises" but do net
agree. With those who insist upon eS-
Guiding every formal recognition of divine
providence from the schools" 1t quotes at
length from the decision of the Supreme
court OF the United States in the Warren
case. which held that Christianity was
the religion of this nation
