MEMS MEETING GROWING.
Movement Among Members of Diff
ferent Churches TO Hold Series Of
Special Meetings is Well Received.

The second of the series of mems
meetings started some weeks ago by
the memberships of the different
churches was held at the Baptist
church at 4:15 yesterday afternoon,
and was addressed by Rev. T. r. Egg
erton of the Congregational church.
This meeting was well attended
considering the rainy afternoon and
the interest is increasing. These
meetings are preceded by services on
the street. in which short talks are
given by different pastors, songs are
sung and prayer offered.
The services at the church consist
pening prayer, music and a short
sermon, and are closed with music.
1t is the hope Of men of the different
churches to increase interest in this
series of special mems meetings until
they will become a permanent fixture
in the Sunday services in this city. So
far the movement has been heartily
received and men of all kinds and de-
nominations are cordially invited to
join in them.

brought thee out of the land of
Egypt, out of the house of bondage"
Mr.. Editor, 1 believe that God,
whom we cannot see, but whom we
may trust, is speaking these very
words now at this moment to you and
to me and to the people of this town
and this land; to each man and
woman and child. I believe that 1
could not speak If He did not speak;
that from Him comes my power to
speak and yours to hear. I believe
but to your hearts; that in every one
of you there is that which can listen
and understand.
God spake all these words and
said, I am the Lord thy God, which
brought thee out of the land of
Egypt, out of the home of bondage.
Thou shalt have none other Gods
but me-" And the rest of these
words are found writ, Mr.. Editor, in
the goth chapter of Exodus. They
are the Ten COMMANDMENTS. They
taught the Jews what acts are con-
trary to Gods will. They teach us
what acts are contrary to Gods will;
to what sins we are inclined. Our
inclinations are not different from
those of men in the old time. These
commandments show that sins have
brought miseries on these Jews of old
this book is the record of the mis-
cries and the calamities which the
breaking of these commandments
brought upon this people; these COM
mandments show what sins have
miseries on people everywhere; they
show what sins will bring miseries on
people everywhere. And they show
that the God to whom we pray, in
whom we believe, does not wish us to
fall into those miseries, that he would
save us out of them.
The fourth OF these command
ments which God spake to the Jews,
which He speaks to us, is this: Re-

can his life be tried.

Mr.. Editor, five and thirty centuries
ago there were a set of poor Great
ures who were slaves in the land of
Egypt. They had cruel taskmasters
over them; they had lost all hope
and courage. One of the most pow
erful kings of the time held them in
bondage. One day a shepherd of
their race went to the king and said:
'In the name of the Lord God of this
people / command you to let them
CO." The king mocked him, of
course. who is the Lord God, that
should heed what he says?" King
Pharaoh paid homage to a Lord in
the sky and a Lord in the river; to
many kings who had been before
him; to some animals that were USE
full to him. There were some wise
men who told him how he should
worship these Gods, what he should
offer them that would please them.
But what was this Lord who cared
for slaves and who set his power at
defiance? Yet Moses showed the
great king that the unseen Lord who
cared for slaves was mightier than
lne pONtIS WlllSll ilS WI
the sky and the river and the beasts
-mightier than Pharaoh and his
hosts. And Moses, in the name Of
that unseen Lord led the people out
of bondage into a desert through
which they passed into a good land,
where there was no Egyptian bond
age. And yet, Mr.. Editor, we are
told that these people dsbelieved
and distrusted their God, their deliv-
erer; and this, although He continued
to save them from their enemies and
kept them alive. And then we are
told how Moses, in the name of this
unseen Lord, speaking for their God,
from out of a mountain which burned
with fire, amidst thunders and light
nings, spoke of these people, and said,
"T am the Lord thy God which

NO MAN CAN SHIRK HIS PLAIN DUTY.

telligence, is a Christian standard. He
grows up surrounded by the results
of Christianity on all sides. The law
of the land, the subtler law of ethics
and good manners which hem him in
and under which he grows, are what
they are because of Christianity.
He stands surrounded by Christian
ity, visible and alive. All these things
are facts of mans position. Neg
lect of them does not annihilate them,
Disbelief in them does not change
them. A man can do nothing with
the responsibilities of Christianity but
face them and answer for them, as
he does for all the other responsible
ties of life.
Neglect of his duty as a citizen, de-
NAL of his duty as a member Of a
community or Of family, does not
change or remove the relations, or
any of the responsibilities Of the re-
lations. A man may make his whole
life empty, fruitless, vile, by fighting
with the facts of existence, II he will;
but the facts of existence lie upon
him just the same. So man may re-
pudite the responsibilities of Chris
tianity IL he will; but It is a Christian
life that has gone to ruin.
It is not for any man in this city
to decide whether he will be a Chris
tian or not. This only is left for a
man to decide-whether he will be a
Christian in truth and reality, or
whether he will fight the purpose of
God in putting him here, and spend
his life in fruitless efforts to be as
near heather as he can. Fruitless
! efforts, be sure of that. His place is
fixed. BY the law Of Christ, and by
! that only, can a man be measured,

member that thou keep holy the Sab
bath day. Six days shalt thou labor,
and do all that thou hast to do; but
the seventh day is the Sabbath of the
Lord thy God. The Jews were told
to keep six days as days of work, one
day as a day of rest. When they for
got the days of work and the days
of rest, they forgot that they were
made in Gods image; they forgot that
He was the lord of all. The master
was hard to his servant and to his
cattle. He thought of them as his,
not as Gods.
Christians do not now rest on the
seventh day of the week as the Jews
did, but on the first. We begin with
rest, but go on to work. Yet we ac-
knowledge six days of work, and one
day of rest. And the day of rest re-
minds us that God has raised up His
Son, Jesus Christ, from the dead, and
has called us to be His sons and
daughters in Him. So our Sabbath
tells us that rest and our life are in
Him who is our Father, who has been
our fathers Father, and who will be
the Father of our children after u.s..
When we forget the day of rest and
the days of work, we forget that we
are the children of God; we forget
that our rest is in Him, and that our
strength to work is from Him. We
forget that we are one people with
those who were before us, and with
those who shall come after us.
When we forget the day of rest and
the days of work, we do not feel the
blessing of rest and the blessing Of
work; we do not feel that rest and
work both bind us to God.
We, in these United States of
America, have as much need to re-
member the fourth commandment as
the Jews had; we have need to be-
ware of the great sin which they COM
mitted. Faithfully yours,
HENRY DIXON JONES.

Pendleton, Ore, April S.-(Editor
East Oregonian)-Some time since 1
reminded the readers of your paper
that this is Christian country; Ore
ROn is a Christian state; Pendleton
is a Christian city.
In this country, in this state, in this
city man is born into the RESPONSE
bilities of Christianity, just as he is
born into the responsibilities of citi-
zenship. He cannot refuse the re-
sponsibilities of Christianity any
more than he can refuse the respon-
sibilities Of citizenship. The question
of Christianity has been determined
long since.
The great responsibilities of life no
man chooses They are imposed
without his consent. Existence, the
awful responsibility of living, is
laid upon each man whether he will
or no; civilization, a man is born into
that-he must face the responsible
ties growing out of civilization.
So all the duties and obligations Of
life are imposed. A man does not
choose them. He finds them upon
HIM. And conscience, and the COM
mon judgment of mankind, and the
law of nature, as well as the law Of
God demand that he shall bear them,
and answer for the manner of that
bearing.
A sensible man, an honest man,
faces these facts There is no chance
of shrinking. He must face them
and answer for them.
Now, as it is with all these things,
SO It is with Christianity. A man is
born into the responsibilities of
Christianity The standard of right
and wrong brought to his opening in

ANOTHER BATTLE ROYAL.

The war being waged in the far
east is not more earnest nor in
tense than the battle royal being
waged now by the merchants of
Palestine for business. 1t is not
a war of rifles or swords, but a
war of keen competition and in
telligent effort to get business,
and while good natured and fair,
it is none the less serious and in
earnest. And. the people who
spend the money are the victors.
Withoutsuch keen competition no
such business opportunities would
be possible. Palestine has fine
lot of business houses and business
men; and their trade is not local
by any means, but they sell to
people all over East Texas. This
part of Palestine's business is
growing very rapidly, and it is
due to the progressive campaigns
made by II few of the business
people. The HERALD hopes they

GREATEST QUESTION OF THE
TWENTIETH CENTURY.

The Good Roads convention to
be held in this county in Palestine
April q and %, will be in the in
terest of the most important sub
iect and be beyond doubt the most
important convention ever held in
this county. Few men have the
least idea of the far reaching i'm
portance of a good road, from
house to house, from home to
church and school, and from farm
to market. How many more fam
lilies would have the privilege of
attending church, children attend
schools and better schools, farm
ers be able to reach good market
twelve months of the year, If
there was a good road over which
they could travel. Homes would
be happier and fewer broken ties;
children better educated and more
content to live on the farm; land
more valuable and the farmer
richer; the country more thickly
populated and wealth increased;
the towns and cities would have
more manufactures; business
houses multiplied, and all classes
and conditions of men be benefit
ted if the roads of the country
were considered as important to
the country as the streets to the
town or city.
The coming of the National
Good Roads officials, government
officials, experts and practical road
builders will give information to
the people who attend this con-
yention, which will aid them in
their determination to make this
magnificent county what the Great
Giver of all good gifts intended it
should be-a home for the best
people on earth.
Attend our convention-the
farmers and their wives, the la
dies, the preachers of the city. the
professors of our schools and the
citizens of our county. We will
all be benefited. Come.

A DANGEROUS HABIT
GIadstone's Physician Gives
Warning Against a Growing
American Custom.

The growing habit amongst Amer
leans OF taking a mint tablet or some
other o-called digestive after eating
hearty meal, is something that Sir
Andrew Clarke, Mr.. Gladstone's ply
stefan advises strongly against, say
ing: at is absolutely dangerous to
take into the stomach remedies which
are popularity supposed to aid in the
digestion of food"
There is nothing known TO the
science of medicine that can perform
the work of the human stomach.
Drugs do not and cannot digest the
food. They simply decompOse it.
What can be more revolving or dis
gushing than the thought of taking
something into the stomach that is GO
ing to turn the good food you have
eaten into mass of corruption.
The only way to overcome indiges-
ton and its evil effects is to remove
all irritation, congestion and intiam-
nation from the stomach, liver and
intestines, and Mona is the only
agent known that will do this.
When Mi-o-na tablet is taken be-
fore each meal every trace of irritation
