A Profitable Revival.

The special services held during the
last two weeks have been, we believe,
the most profitable ever held in Will
mar. Without any sensationalsm or
excitement, the audiences have stead
lily increased till the church has been
taxed to its utmost capacity. The
Gospel has been preached with intense
fervor and plainness by a living wit
ness of its power, and a goodly num-
Der have publically declared their in
tention of henceforth living the Chris
tian life, and others who have grown
cold and careless have renewed their
allegiance to Christ. These are some
OF the visible results and only eternity
will reveal all that has been accom-
pllshed. Let the revival spirit con-
tinue and the revival 90 on in all the
channels of our church life. -Presby-
terrain Church Bulletin.
These special services are being con-
tlnued this week, it being the wish of
majority Of those interested in the
meetings which are 50 successfully con-
Quoted by Mr.. Mackey that he remain
here another week. Mr.. and Mrs,
Mackey's great earnestness in the
Christian work has won for them many
friends among the church people of
our city.

Death Of Mrs. G. N. Leaning.

The death of Mrs. Lille Adella
Leaning, wife of G. M. Leaning, at
the family home Wednesday evening,
March 6, 1907, has cast gloom over
the entire city. The people were not
generally aware that her illness was
of serious nature. Death was due
to Bright's disease. Mrs. Leaning
had not been in good health all winter,

was united in marriage to MIR. Lean
ing on January l., 1890. For number
of years she resided with her husband
in Union Grove and about eight years
ago removed to this city. In early
life Mrs. Leaning was a member OF
the Methodist church, but during her
residence in this city she affiliated with
the Presbyterian church. She was a
member of the Women's Relief Corps
of this city, whose members will attend
the services at the house in a body.
Mrs. Leaning is survived by her
