Sermon on Prayer.

Bishow Brown preached beautiful
sermon at the ST. Peters Church Sun
day morning on the subject of
prayer. +" the necessity and comfort
of it, etc. There can be no religion
without prayer, he said. 1t is as vital
to the religious life as air is to the
physical. While he was optimistic,
and believed that tie world was grow
ing better, there could be no doubt
that prayer is being grossly neglected IN
this modern life. and especially here
in America. He deplored the fact,
and said the reasons of the neglect of
prayer was the engrossing commercial
ism of the age, worldliness, lack of
faith in God, and the belief in the
goodness of God which makes prayer
None of these reasons
were at all justitiable, and the only
logical. one was the last named, and
that was utterly lrreconcilable with
the teachings of Christ and his
apostles.

Peruna.
! Peruna is of national fame as catarrh
remedy. 1t is the only internal sys-

all these organs, because two-thirds of
the ills of mankind are due to catarrh.
With healthy mucous membranes cli-
matte diseases lose their terror, the sys-
tenn is enabled to throw off contagion,
and health follows inevitably.
Mr.. A. Il. Wood, Mt. Sterling, KY,

UNCONSCIOUS
INFLUENCE. y
Subject of a Plain but Powerful
Sermon by Bishop Brown,
of Arkansas
BEFORE INSTITUTE
GRADUATES.
ut is Not So Important That You
Should Say and Do Great Things,
As That You Should Say and
Do Right Things

A large congregation heard the Com
mcncement Sermon at st. Peter S
Church Sunday night delivered by the
Right Reverend William NJ. Brown,
Bishop of the Diocese of Arkansas,
before the young lady graduates and
undergraduates of the Columbia Insti-
tute. The sermon was eloquent in its
simplicity, extremely practical and
helpful The subject was "Uncon-
scious Influence.
=" heard them say, let us go to
Dothan. "-Genesis 81 IL.
There are two kinds of influence,
conscious and unconscious. said the
Bishop. Conscious influence soon
merges into the unconscious. This is
evident from an incident in the life of
the Patriarch Joseph. lyon will re-
member that when he was mere boy,
Jacob, his father, sent him on an
errand to his elder brethren who were
herding the cattle at some distance
from home; that when he came to
the valley where he expected to find
them he was disappointed; that
certain man, as he is designated in
the sacred narrative, found the boy,
half bewildered, wandering about and
kindly informed him that his brethren
had removed to Dothan; and that
Joseph went after them and found
them there, shortly before the band of
merchantmen came along who carried
him to Egypt. AS for this certain
man, history has handed down to us
only the single circumstance of his
meeting with Joseph and the brief
with him. His name,
his nationality, his position among
men, his burial place have been I'M /
known for thousands of years; and as
his name is not given here. even
though he may be well known IN
history, in other connections. he can
never be identified.

of his instrumentality in helping the
lad, Joseph, to find his brethren and in
promoting his happiness by this
simple service; but he could not
have dreamed of the momentous, far
reaching consequences of that help
which he gave to the beloved son of
Jacob and Rachel. which led to his
becoming the first man, next to
Pharaoh, in Egypt. and so prepared
the way for the occurrence of some of
the most important events in the whole
history of man.

EXT MPTION is
Unconstitutional.
Continued from page 1.

no error in the Judgment of the su-
preme court, and it should stand.
One of the main arguments to prove
that the legislation was special, was
because it was left entirely to the
discretion of the municipal authorities
whether they will have a fire depart
ment or not, how many shall belong
10 it, and who they shall be.
It was held that the law only gives
the few the advantages of the exemD-
tion, and ii the exemption is by way
of pay, then in particular it is special,
because those who do not OWN prop
erty do not get any.
1t was argued that a man under the
exemption act could serve as n fireman
for seven years, and have his proper.
ty exempted for the rest of his life.
Firemen who do not own property are
not paid anything for their services.
"Why pay one, OF two. or ten firemen
and let the others 60 unpaid?" 1t was
asked.
The effect of the decision of the
court of errors and appeals will be tc
prohibit the firemen and soldiers from
receiving the exemptions.
