A NOTED EVANGELIST
Dr. Smiley Who Will Begin Series of
 Meetings Here Feb. l.

Rev. Francis E. Smiley, D. D., who will begin a series of gospel meetings in the Presbyterian church Feb. 1, is Q forceful and eloquent preacher. His fine spirit, tactful and genial man ner, ever commend him. He does not antagonize people. Although fe"rless and faithful in preaching the gospel he does it in such a way as to impress his hearers with. the conviction that it is the truth and must be spoken.
 During the summer of 1903 Dr. Smiley spent nine weeks in tent preaching in Philadelphia. He was en- gagged for two weeks, but so success ful was he that the committee succeed ed in securing his services for the longer period. He spoke every day at the noon hour to the men in the Bald win Locomotive Works. There tnous- ands listened to the gospel with great delight and profit Dr. Smiley has the ability to adapt himself to all condi- tiOns. He is at home in the stately church before the most cultured audi ence as well as in the presence Of the tOiling masses. In short, Dr. Smiley is an evangelist ito the manner born"
 The following opinions of pastors and newspa pers may give some idea of pr. Smiley's methods and work. In Caro-, Mich. five churches united in evangehstic meetings under his lead ership. The pastors said: "The gOs- pei has been presented faithfully and tenderly and with great power and peTsUasiveness. The churches have been led to a higher Christian life and a large number of men, women and children have become 'obedie1t unto the faith The work of the Holy Spirit las been emphasized and the Bible has been delightfully."- holored."
