A few years ago I had n cancer on
my tongue as big as the end of your
thumb and was, as the oculists
thought, incurably blind in one eye,
but God restored my sight in one
night and took the cancer away, leav-
ing absolutely no trace of it. These
miracles were worked I'm answer 10
prayer, but that Is not all. Shortly
afterwards suffered a compound
fracture of my right leg above the
knee and without the assistance of
bandages or the services of earthly
physicians, God enabled me to walk
I'm three days. A doubling surgeon
applied the X-ray and discovered TO
his astonisbment that I was telling
the truth. God left the marks In
order to confound the infldeI.-Rev.
3. s. Boyles, pastor OF the Church
OF the Apostolic Faith, otherwise
known as the Holy Rollers.
The Church OF the Apostolic Faith,
which lays claim to the distinction
OF having for It's members children
OF God on earth today, began a series
OF revival meetings at the old Beth
any Presbyterian church this morn
ing. The proceedings were enlivened
by the arrival of Rev. M. L. Ryan,
who Is to pilot twenty Spokane mis-
slonares across the Pacific on the
Minnesota when she sails next
month. Their mission will be to pro-
mulgate the doctrines of the new sect
In the orient. Ryan concluded the
service this morning and fully con-
frmed all that the local pastor laid
of various infirmltles to being healed
ofvarious infirmities by an appeal 10
prayer instead OF TO the physician.
Outlivcd Usefulness.
"All the churches have outliyed
their usefulness and should either
get the power and join this new
or retire and let us have
the field" said Ryan. "There Is too
much money wasted on splendid edl-
fees. within whose walls error is
taught instead OF the truth. The
time has come when the faith OF the
apostles instead of the error of creeds
must prevail. and soon you will find
us raising the dead. casting out devils
and doing all the things that the
apostles and the Master did.
I'VE are sending missionaries TO
The orient In order TO preach the true
gospel instead OF the gospel OF err
rors and schisms and bigotry, as you
viii find In the church today"
Here the preacher was interrupted !
by cries OF "Hallelujah," Amen" and |
GLORY be to God" Men clasped
their hands and groaned abound. sew
eral women rolled on the floor and
spoke with tongues" while the
nelghbors In the vicinity either lock-
ed their doors and retired to their
rooms or took In the scene, or rather
noise. from a distant as the humor
might strike them.
Sur of the Power.
81 am sure" shouted the pastor
above the din, that somebody will
get the power this morning. Hang
onto God, brethren, and get the Holy
Spirit TO help you. That's right, cry
aloud and speak the tongues.
II getting the power meant In
crease In the volume OF noise. the
pastor must have highly approved the
demonstration that he had provoked.
II was feared for time that an am

Il was explained that God would take
care OF the body while the soul was
striving after the light,
