I can't see that ministers as class
in private conversation with laymen
discuss to any degree the subjects Pc
culiar to their profession. When my
pastor meets me, for example, it's
How are you?" and then some COM
ment on the news Of the neighborhood
or in the morning paper He never
ventures an inquiry or remark that
has any bearing upon my personal re-
ligious condition"

Bladder troubles almost always result
from arrangement of the kidneys aud
= cure IS obtained quickest by proper
treatment of the kidneys. If you are feel
ing badly you can make no mistake by
taking DR.. Kilmer's Swamp Root, the
great kidney, liver and bladder remedy.
It corrects inability to hold urine and
scaiding pain in passing it, and over
comes that unpleasant necessity Of being
compelled to go often through the day,
and to get up many times during the
right. The mild and the extraordinary
effect of Swamp Root is soon realized.
1t stands the highest for its wonderful
cures of the most distressing cases.
Swamp-Root is pleasant to take and is
sold by all druggists in fifty-cent and
one-dollar size bottles. You may have a
sample bottle of this wonderful new dis
covery and book that tells all about it,
both sent free by mail. Address, DR.. Kill

offer in this paper. Don't make any
mistake, but remember the name, Swamp
Root, DR.. Kilner's Swamp Root, and the
address, Binghamton, N. Y. on every
bottle.

President G. Stanley Hall of Clark

ever, we see. of the absolute, urgenG
necessity for somehow getting more
religion into the school education OF
American boys and girls. He said TO
the council:
II the state Will not have Scripture.

method Of introducing carefully Sc
lected ethical writings made up by re-
ligious men Of the best proverbs and
most inspiring classics from all Bibles
of other religions. Inc state
will never tolerate again any creed OF
confession It's religion Is patriotism
and the school is now it's nursery as IT
was that of the church. Science Will
never assent to the dogmatic method,
but Christianity should not be expur-
gated from the art, religion, history
and humanities which 1t has done so
much all these centuries to create anu
without which even they cannot be
rightly understood and without soma
knowledge or feeling for which our
children are like deaf mutes studying
music.
To Revive "PastoraI Oversight"
When a pastor meets a member OF
his congregation, should he talk OF
politics and the weather, or bring the
conversation to bear upon the mem
bers spiritual condition? This spiritual
pastoral oversight which formed an
important element in the vocation OF
a minister of past generation, is
practically laid aside by many clergy
men nowadays without substitute.
The spiritual loss occasioned thereby
lis frequently lamented by religious
Journals; but the remedy Is not easy
to find, since, it is alleged, "the young
err lay element in the church" prefer
the minister to "be a man among
men," q "hail fellow well met" Real
pastoral oversight" declares The
Lutheran (Philadelphia,) lis not de-
sired as a rule, and, when offered, 1T
seems almost like an intrusion If not
an impertinence." Whatever the cause,
the fact remains, so The Lutheran as
secularization, the pastoral office is
not exercised as it should be-" We read
further:
"That similar state of affairs ex-
lists in communions where considerable
emphasis Of certain kind is placed on
conscious spiritual experience is made
