A CONTINUAL STRAIN.

Many men and women are constant
ly subjected to what commonly term
ga continual strainn because OF some
financial or family trouble. 1t wears

of constipation, loss of appetite, sleep

NEW poRMIToRY.

At London, KY, the plans for
the new dormitory are rapidly
maturing, but they have barely
enough money for the erection
and none for the furniture. Thir-
ty dollars will furnish a room
very plainly. Any person or
auxiliary contributing that much
can name a room and a plate will
be put on the door. All money
for this purpose must be sent by
November direct to Miss Belle
H. Bennett, Richmond, KY, stat
ing name to be given the room or
hall. When completed there will
be "a bed rooms and 3 halls thus
giving accommodations to fifty
boys.
WHO WILL FURNISH A ROOM?
Let this call from our president
be responded to by the women of
Southern Methodism, make a
sacrafice. In the early dawn of
the Christian era, King David
uttered these splendid words:
"Neither viii / offer unto the
Lord sacrifices of that which doth
cost me nothing" But think of
the weary years of self-denial
practiced by the mothers of some
of the mountain boys who will
come to abide for a time in this
dormitory. Which of the 1875
auxiliaries will invest thirty dol
lars in furnishings for the new
Dormitory.

Hale be enjoined from interfering

sence of the latter, who is holding

temporary injunction will be made be-
fore Judge Page Morris at Duluth

master Hale Was instructed to hold all
mail addressed to the concern and to
return it to the writer's if they could
be ascertained. Hathorn will set up

is unconstitutional.

his wife and baby, he came to Mime
apolis where he thought his brother
could help him find work. Employ
ment was hard to find, and last night
he had a falling out with his brother
on that account. He decided not to be
further object Of his charity and
with 1 cent in his pocket he started
out OF the house.. In the evening he
wandered into a South Minneapolis
church where a young man was MAX
ing an earnest plea for money to take
him to the orient and Elbery parted
with his penny.
/ Tho late in the evening he began
to look for chance to earn his lodg-
ing, but finding none, he slept in the
tramproom and was arrested and
hustled to court as he was walking out
this morning.
