have specialists trained to promote it. The plan of paying teachers Is favored by the clergy so far as I know. I have never heard any objection to 1t. and have heard many churches regret that they have not the funds to adopt 1t. The rich churches of New York and other cities find paid teachers more ef- fective than volunteers, and have dis covered the advantages of having trained men and women who will and can devote their entire time to their work. For example, not long ago we received a request from one of the largest churches in New York to send them a man who was competent to or- ganize and direct its Sunday schools and mission schools, to take charge of teachers meetings and to organize normal classes for the Sunday school. We had another application from a large city church for young man as superintendent of their Sunday school at a salary of $1,000. One of the larg- est Presbyterian churches called on us to furnish a competent man for su- perintendent of its Sunday school, and another church offered $1,200 a year for a man of experience in Sunday school methods to assist it's pastor in Sunday school and mission work"
 What sort of an education do you give?"
 We have four courses. The first leads to a degree, covers three years of study and is intended to give thorough preparation for advanced lines of work in religious education. The second leads to a teachers diploma and is in- tended to equip graduates of high schools and normal scnools. who may have had some practical experience in Christian work, for salaried positions in connection with religious teaching. This course covers two years;s and the graduates receive teachers diplomas. The third course is for deaconesses and covers two years, giving a thorough preparation for mission work, while the fourth Is for volunteer church. workers and covers one year.
 Tn order to confine the work of our school to a distinctive field and to avoid being brought into competition with theological seminarles we ac- cept no one as a student who intends to enter the ministry. We are inter- denominationaI and confine our work to training Sunday school superin- tendents and teachers. city, home and foreign missionaries. volunteers in re- ligious work. and superintendents and teachers of reformatory and charitable institutions"

 When women are troubled with irreg- ular or painful lmenstruation, weakness. leucorrhea, displacemento or alteration of the womb, that bearing-down feel ing, inflammation of the ovaries, back ache, fatulenee, general debility, indi- 0estion and nervous prostration, they should remember there is one tried and true remedy. Lydia E Pinkham's Veg etable Compound at once removes such trouble.
 No other medicine in the world has received such widespread and unquali- fed endorsement. No other medicine has such a record of cures of female troubles. Refuse to buy any other medicine:
 Mrs. Pinkham invites all sick women to write her for advice. She has guided thousands to health. Address, Lynn, Mass.
 Health is too valuable to risk in ex- ueriments with unknown and untried medicines or methods of treatment. Remember that itis Lydia B. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound that is curing women, and don't allow any druggist to sell you anything else in its place.

This story was ap- pointed for the subject of our next meeting.
 Professor Berry principal of our public school, having kindly offered the chapel of the institute for our meet ings during the summer, on May 25th quite a number were present. We found that our director in keeping with the evenings program, had on the wall. a beautiful picture of Sam Davis fram- ed, with wreaths of Ivy and Confeder- ate flags above. while below was our motto Gloria Victis," in large German letters also framed with three painted Confederate flags. On the presidents desk were vases of flowers bearing the Confederate colors.

Trial of Self Declared Elijah
 at Auburn.
OY'SDEATH CAUSED IDEAS
Frank w. sandford, Leader of Re- { Iigious Scot, Charged With Death of Young Bartlett by starva-
 tion-Denfed Medicine.

tkOn-DCnteu
 AUBURN, Me, Oct. 6.-At the Sand ford trial here, in his opening to the jury, County Attorney Crockett said that the state would show that Frank W. Sandford five years ago declared himself to be Elijah; that he was re- spected in the community for the au- thority he assumed in that character; that Leander Bartlett, aged twelve, was a member of the community in 1903 and was taken i'll of diphtheria and died.
 During the boys illness, he said, Mir. Sandford ordered fast which the sick were compelled to observe. that Lean- der Bartlett was denied medicine and even prayer, which is believed at Shi- loh as efficacious to heal, and that Sandford said in the chapel, T would not care If I saw Leander Bartlett's dead body lying before me-"
 The boys death, he said, was due to orders given by Sandford, and hence Sandford was responsible.
 The first witness was George A. Bar ton of Auburn, who testified to Sand fords paramount authority at Shiloh. as head of the Holy Ghost and Us,' of his ordering the punishment of chill dren and their parents, of lasts ordered Sandford and of his attendance on Bartlett. He said he heard Sandford say that he would not care if he saw Leander Bartlett's dead body lying in front of him."
 Sandford, he testified, was vexed with Bartlett because he had been disobedient. Later Sandford ordered the fast of Minveh, which lasted from Friday to Sunday. Bartlett lasted with the others and died on the day the fast ended. The cross examination brought out that Leander Bartlett's mother attended him during his ill., ness.
 Mrs. George Barton, wife of the pre- ceding witness, testified that she heard Sandford command parents to punish their children and that his orders were obeyed implicitly. They were denied the use of medicine, and babies were denied food when orders to fast were issued. Hf
 MT. Sandford," she said, twas show ing the wrath of God in his sugges- tions about Leander Bartlett lying dead before him."
 Fred McGregor, the man who gave Sandford white chariot, testified that the Shiloh leader on one occasion pray ed for three hours that he (McGregor and his family might be forever damn ed because McGregor's daughter was to be taken from the colony by her ia ther. The witness said Sandford once ordered him to fast for ten days.
