rising of 1900 and declared it might
have had at the bottom of it a spirit
of patriotism. He said it appeared to
the people that the foreign nations
were forming plans to divide out the
country, and in their ignorance they
felt the time had come to rid the land
of such undesirable inhabitants. After
the Boxer trouble subsidized, said the
speaker, the foreign influence was
found to be much stronger than ever.
In consequence there were many peo-
pie who applied for membership in the
church.
After the Boxer trouble was over

carrying out their work than before
the uprising, Mr.. Hendry said. The
missions have determined not to take
side in any further complications that
may arise in the country. He de-
clared that the missionaries were
meeting with much greater success
now and last year the Methodist Prot
estant Church, South. received 240
members. He said the people were
becoming more interested and the
missions had much to hope for.

Large Congregation Attended Ser
vice at Duffy Street Church.
From the text taken from jeremiah,
xiii, 80 "If thou hast run with foot
men and they have wearied thee, how
canst thou contend with horses?" Rev.
S. R. C. Adams preached the fourth of
his series of revival sermons at the
Duffy Street Baptist Church last night.
A large congregation was in attend
ance and at the close of the service
many went forward for prayer, and
later professed Christ.
IF these times are so troublesome, "
said the speaker, chow are we to meet
and face the great and holy God un-
less we have made our preparations
for that day. And what are the foot
men that weary us in this world?" The
footmen he characterized as the wor-
ries and troubles which assail men
each and every day, are providing
for his family, caring for his mercan-
tile business, laboring in the sweat of
his brow. All are hard to overcome
The minister, the merchant, the law
yer, and the doctor all need our SYM
pathy, he said. The social drink
was roundly scored and it's conse-
quences dwelt upon.
In closing Mr.. Adams said: 1--WE
must either be subjugated in this
world by Gods love, or subjugated In
the world to come by His power. There
is no peace for the wicked, for no man
can have peace other than the peace
of Christ. God cannot be deceived
You may laugh at the vision of the
horses seen by st. John, and yet you
testify to the presence of the white
horse in every act. Do not your Gem

Colds, Grip and Catarrhal Diseases

" OIDS are considered one of the
necessary ills of life. One is

Colds are always dangerous and

A cold is the beginning of catarrh.
1t may cause catarrh of any of the in

lungs. stomach and pelvic organs. A
remedy that will cure a cold. then.
would cure all these direct affects of
colds.
Peruna is such a remedy. We have
