REV. HUNT|NGS VERY
INTERESTING SERMON
PREACHED LAST NIGHT UPON AN
OLD HEBREW POEM THAT
MOSES SUNG.

Last evening the Rev. G. c. Hunt
ling preached in Good Time hall on a
verse of the old Hebrew poem that
Moses sang Just before his death.
The poem recited the blessings to be
given to the twelve tribes of Israel.
The verse taken for the text last eve
ming tells of the blessing that shall
come to Asher.
blessed be Asher with children;
And let him be acceptable to his
brethren,
And let him dip his foot in oil.
Thy shoes shall be iron and brass
And as thy days, so shall thy strength

AS stated above, the Durum wheats
are very hard, and for this reason are
difficult to mill. and hence very un-
popular with the millers. 1t is the
general idea also that they produce q
very poor grade of -four, but in Rus
STA, where the art of milling has
reached a high state of perfection,
this is not considered so, especially
when a small percentage of soft
wheat is mixed with them. There is
an increasing demand through the
world for these hard wheats, and If
the farmers only decide to grow them

Every Sufferer.

Nobody who has not endured the
suffering caused by nervous head
ache can realize the awful agony Of
its victims. Worst of all. the ordin-
airy treatment cannot be relied upon
to cure nor even to give relief. Some
doctors will say that IL q person 10
subject to these headaches there is
nothing that can be done to prevent
their recurrence.
Nervous headaches, as we'll as neu-
ralgia. are caused by lack of nutrition
tho nerves are starved The only
way to feed the nerves is through the
blood and It is in this way that Dr..
Williams Pink Pills have accom-.
plished so many remarkable cures.
Mrs. Addie Merrill, of 80 Union
Street, Auburn, Me-, says: "For
years I suffered from nervous head
aches, which would come on me every
five or six weeks and continue for
several days. The pain was so severe
that would be obliged to 60 to bed
for three or four days each time. It
was particularly intense over my right
eye. tried medicines but got no re-
lief. mad no appetite and when
the headache passed away I felt as If
I had been sick for a month. My
blood was thin and I was pale, weak
and reduced in weight.

Pills in a paper and decided to try
them. first noticed that they be-
