THE REVIVAL
is GROWING
IN INTEREST AND IN ATTEND
ANcE-TWo GOOD SERVICES
HELD YESTERDAY.

The attendance upon the revival
meetings at Centenary Methodist
church was greatly improved at both
services yesterday.
In the afternoon Bro. Morris took
for his text. II. Timothy, 1912: Yea,
and all that would live Cody in Christ
Jesus shall suffer persecution" The
sermon was plea for a more self
sacrificing and courageous type of
christianity, coupled with the assur-
ance that whenever a christian
amounted to anything in the way of
taking the world for Christ he would
receive some opposition and criticism
from satan and his hosts. The
speaker declared that the christian
ity of most people was of so mild a
type that satan did not know they
were in town. A few men were
sprinkled through the congregation.
At 7:45 the text was |. Timothy,
AS: Bodily exercise profiteth little,
but Goodness is profitable unto all
things. having the promise of the life
that now is and of that which is to
come" The sermon consisted of
three points: First, that moral life.
free from sin, was better IMAM a sin
full life. Second, that moral life was
not necessarily a Cody life. Third.
that GodlinesS made this life better
in all respects, and assured of eternal
life. This, like most of the other ser
mons, abounded in Illustrations and
experiences to confirm the teaching.
After the afternoon service the
Home Mission Society held its regular
monthly meeting with the largest at
tendance and most harmonious SEES
sion that has been held in several
months. Several new members were
received.

Exaooerated Reports.

While the recent earthquake in San
Francisco was the most terrible and
the confiagration which followed prob
ably the most extensive and destruc-
tive in the history of the country, the
earlier reports were all exaggerated.
Without any exaggeration whatever,
we believe Hostetter's Stomach Bitters
will aid any sick man or woman very
materially in recovering their former
good health. Thousands have volun-
tarily written us to the effect that the
Bitters made them strong and robust
after all other remedies had failed.
You therefore owe it to yourself to
give it a fair trial at once. For 53
years it has been making stomachs
strong and digestions perfect, thus cur
ing sick headache, flatulency, sour ris-
ings, nausea. cramps, diarrhoea, indi-
gestion. dyspepsia, costiveness, or ma
laria, fever and ague. Get a bottle to-
day.

DRASTIC MEASURES
PROPOSED BY CHIEF OF POLICE STEWART IN ENFORCEMENT
 OF SUNDAY CLOSING.
Will Ask Council for an Order Clcs- ina Restaurants in Saloons
 Would Prohibit All Ingress.

Chief of Police Stewart says that in order to enforce the Sunday clos ing law against the saloons it will be necessary to close the restaurants in the saloon buildings, as it is im- possible to prevent the sale of liquor so long as people have ingress to the buildings where the liquor is kept. The chief will take this matter up with the council at the meeting Mon day night, and make an effort to secure an order closing these restau- rants, He states that without such ac order it is impossible to enforce the law. MT. Stewart says that the law provides that any saloon keeper permitting ingress or egress at his place of business on the Sabbath is in violation of the law. and he be- lieyes that the fact that restaurants are located in the same rooms with the bars does not make their opera ton legal.
 This effort on the part of the chief to close the restaurants will no doubt bring forth storm of protest ,rco, the proprietors, and it remains to ha seen whether the chief will be given this assistance by the coun- oil in his efforts to enforce the Sun day closing law.
