Rebates and Reunions.

The Presbyterian reunion, the first OF
the four big church gatherings scheduled
to be held at Pen-Mar Park this summer,
will take place on Thursday, July IL.
There will be the usual business meeting
at l1:20 O'Clock ia the morning, and
the reunion exercises proper will be held
in the large tabernacle, beginning at
l:30 o'clock in the afternoon. There
will be two fixed addresses-"Diluted
Presbyterianism," by Rev. E. I. Jefiers,
president Of York Collegiate Institute,
York, Pa, and "The Emphasis in Ideal
Education" by Rev. DR.. ]. Gray
McAllister, president Of the Hampden-
Sidney College, Virgins.
By some it is believed that the re-
unions of the various churches which
have been held annually at Pen Mar for
many years will cease with this summer,
on account OF the ruling of the Interstate
Commerce Commission, which compels
railroads to refrain from giving rebates
or commissions to the different commit
tees. These rebates have been the only
source of revenue for the committees
conducting the reunions. This being
withdrawn, the committees will either
have to look elsewhere for funds or cease
their work. Il is stated that after this
years gatherings there will not remain
in the treasury of the Presbyterian re-
union committee q sum sufficient to
warrant the holding of gathering next
wear.

GIN from President Roosevelt.


The lectern which President Roose-
welt will present to old Buton Psrish
Church at williamsburg, to support the
Bible which King Edward will give. has

the angel of peace, draped form whose
appraised hands and folded wings support
the desk of the lectern. The figure
stands on globe, with one foot resting
on Great Britain and the other on the
United States. The globe itself is sup
ported by the British lion and the Amer
lean eagle. Between these figures is the
coat-of-arms OF the English Washington
family.
Each of the three tablets at the base Of
the lectern bears an inscription. On
that 10 the front are the words, "To the
GLORY of God" The tablet to the right
bears the legend, "And Commemora-
tive of the Three Hundredth Anniversa
~ of the Permanent Establishment OF
English Civilization in America. 1907
1907" On the other tablet are the
words, Presented by Theodore Roose-
Welt, President OF the United States"

The Doctor Away from Home when
Most Needed.

People are often very much disap-
pointed to find that their family physi-
clan is away from home when they
most need his services. Diseases like
cramp collie and cholera morbus require
prompt treatment, and have in many
instances proven fatal before medicine
could be procured or physician sum-
moned. The right way is to keep at
hand O bottle of Chamberlain's Collie,
Cholera and Dirahoea Remedy. No
physician can prescribe better medi-
cine for these diseases. By having it in
the house you escape much pain aud
suffering and all risk. Buy 1t now; 1t
may save life. For sale by w. F.
