MUCH INTEREST SHOWN
In CHURCH SERVICES
Large Congregations Attended Divine
Worship Yesterday in Both the
Morning and Evening.

The Presbyterian church was
profusely and beautifully decor.
ated with lattice and festoons OF
green and white, set off by ever.
green's and [ completed with
beautiful flowers, Easter lilies,
roses, hyacinths, and other
blooms. The church has never
been more exquisitely decorated.
A picture of the interior was
taken by Mr.. Hakkerup this
morning.
A large attendance was
present at the morning service,
which was a communion service,
when eight were received into
the church. Mr.. Meyer sang
II am the Resurrection" in a
very acceptable manner. Mrs.
War6eld's organ voluntaries,
interludes and postludes, were
especially fine both morning and
evening. Mr.. White spoke briefly
on the connection of Easter With
the sacrament of the Lords
supper and the necessity for
Christian lives which show forth
Christ to the world. In the
evening the church was crowded
and numbers Of people were
turned away for lack of room.
The jury attended in a body.
Mr.. Meyer played a very fine
violin solo, Miss Boyer sang
''The Resurrection" by Shelley,
and the choir rendered the
anthem "Why seek We the living
among the dead" All the music
was especially good. The ser.
mon was an Easter meditation
from the text "He is not here,
but IS risen.''
The congregation packed the
Methodist church yesterday
both morning and evening AID
the services were Of a high order
The soloists of the day, Miss
Blanche Boyer, Mr.. belong,
Miss Buctyce Brannon, Mrs
Mabel Richie and Miss Ida
Brown, appeared at their very
best and delighted the audience
and the numbers by the choir
were fine. The story Of Patsy
by Mrs. Geo. A. Phipps Of Wy
oming, was one of the sweetest
things heard in Bemidji. She
will be great favorite with ou1
people. The offerings of the day
we're exceptionally good.

Heart
Weakness

The action of the heart de-
ponds upon the heart nerves
and muscles. When from any
cause they become weak or ex-
hauSted, and fail to furnish
sufficient power, the heart flut-
tiers, palpitates, skips beats;
and in its effort to keep up its
work, causes pain and distress,
such as smothering spells,
short breath, fainting, pain
around heart, arm and shoul-
ders. The circulation is i'm
peded, and the entire system
suffers Ion lack of nourish-
ment.
