the best in the religious field to-day.
Evangelist S. NJ. Sayford is one of the
leaders and his services are sought for
throughout the country. His record in
Christian service is an enviable one.
Converted when business man in Har-
risburg, Pa. he at once entered religious
work as Y. NJ. C. A. secretary at
Lockport and Syracuse, N. Y. From
this he was called to take the State Y.
NJ. C. A. secretaryship of Massachusetts,.
Meanwhile calls for evangelistic work
multiplied so rapidly that he was led to
devote his life to evangelism. The great
revival at Springfield, Mass, in 1884, was
under his leadership.
Then for twelve years he made a
speciality of evangelistic work among
college students and in these years it is
said that he led more college men to
accept Christ than any man in the coun-
try. Thirty thousand students were
through his ministry brought out of be-
setting sins and converted to cleaner
and better life. In 1900 he was called
to reorganize the evangelistic association
of New England and became its general
secretary. Under his administration
the work has steadily improved and en-
larged, the character of the workers
strengthened and their efforts pushed
into the smaller towns and hamlets of
New England, and Oxford County has

The Mighty Power Of Mi.o.na'

Mi-o-na, that extraordinary and per.
feet stomach tonic, will relieve dyspepsia
in twenty-four hours.
1t will cure, and is guaranteed by f.
a. Shurtleff & Co. to the readers of the
Oxford Democrat to cure the most pitt.
full cases of dyspepsia, if taken accord
ing to directions.
Mona tablets not only cure dyspep'
STA, but all stomach disturbances, such
as vomiting of pregnancy, sea or Cal
sickness, and the stomach sickness after
excessive indulgence.
Mona cures by strengthening and in.
MIGRATING the fabby stomach walls, and
after course of Mi.o-na treatment, con-
stipation, If there is any, will entirely
disappear.
Read this from the president of New
York corporation:
IL have been terrible sufferer from
dyspepsia and gastritis for two years.
The most eminent physicians prescribed
for me with no effect. VI have been alb
solutely cured by your Mi-o-na tablets.
The first one gave me relief almost in.
credible. Herbert H. Taylor, sol West
143 Street, New York City.
Mi-o-na Is q most economical treat
ment-a large box of tablets only costs
so cents at F. A. Shurtleff & Co.'s and
the dyspeptic, nervous or otherwise,
who does not give them a trial, is losing
an opportunity to regain health.
Oxford Democrat. [volume] (Paris, Me.) 1833-1933, 1908-09-29

The people have already demonstrated
that they would rather trust man who
is mutually honest, than one who was
honest only because he had to be.
F. A. Shurtleff & Co. have firmly
established reputation for square deal
ing and sterling honesty. When they
told the people that Rexall Remedies are
the purest and most dependable RENE
dies that it is possible for modern science
to produce, and that they would tell the
public exactly what each one of these
300 remedies contained, and that they
sold Rexall Remedies on their own per-
sonal guarantee that they would give
entire satisfaction or the medicine would
not cost the user single cent, they were
believed.
Ever since this announcement the
store of f. A. Shurtlef & Co. has been
crowded by people buying Rexall Rene
dies; all of which proves that +. A.
Shurtleff & Co. have the confidence of
the people, and that honesty is the best
policy.
There is no "cure-all" among the Rex.
all medies-there are 300 different and
separate medicines; one for each human
i'll, and each unquestionably the best of
its kind.
Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets are particu-
larly recommended for the positive cure
of stomach irritation, indigestion and
dyspepsia. They are rich in Bismuth,
Subnitrate Pepsin and Carminatives, and
are prepared by special process which
perfects and enhances the great curative
value of these well.known medicinal
agents. This remedy sells for 25c. a
package. Everyone suffering from a
stomach disorder should try Rexall Dys-
pepsia Tablets, inasmuch as they cost
nothing if they do not satisfy.
+. A. Shurtleff & Co. are certainly
fortunate in securing control of the sale
of these remedies, and we urge everyone
in need of medicine to investigate and
take advantage of their frank and gener-
Gus offer.
Oxford Democrat. [volume] (Paris, Me.) 1833-1933, 1908-09-29

shared in the advantages offered by this
association twice in the last three years.
Mr.. Sayford has pleasing personality,
tactful, patient, free from studied emo
tional effects and is intensely interesting
as a speaker. He was called to Phila-
delphia in April to assist DR.. j. Wilbur
Chapman in the great simultaneous
evangelistic campaign there, and the
papers were enthusiastic over his work.
Mr.. Lewis E. Smith, the Gospel sing
or, is no stranger in this section of the
country. In 1905 and 1908 he held meet
ings in many of our villages under the
direction of the evangelistic association.
The story of his life and conversion is
both of interest and profit. Born in
Portland, of this state, until early man.
hood he lived as so many young men do,
careless of the claims God had upon
him, a life that finally brought trouble
to himself and sorrow to his many
friends throughout the state. Suddenly
God called him and his conversion is one
of the most interesting stories ever
heard.
This was fifteen years ago. He at
once became busy in special Gospel
work and his ability as singer and
natural aptitude for this special line of
effort quickly opened for him larger
opportunities and his record has been
steadily upward. There is hardly an
evangelist of note in the country but
with whom he has sung. He made the
music of the great meetings in Boston
with Gypsy Smith recognized factor in
their success. For eight years he has
been associated with Mr.. Sayford and
their united work has been fruitful and
a blessing to the churches with whom
they have labored.

Mrs. Louisa F. Stri, kIand.

Mrs. Louisa +. Strickland, who passed
away at South Paris, Sept. Is, was born
in Kingfield, Me-, May 20, 1916. She
was one of family of six children, two
of whom, brother and sister, are still
living. In 1862 she was united in mar
riage to Nathan +. Strickland, who pass
ed away in 1904.
Four children were born to them but
two only survive, Wallace, who lives in
South Paris, and Roy Elgin of New
York. In early life Mrs. Strickland was
led TO embrace the Christian religion
under the ministry of "Campmeeting
John Allen" and at once identified her
self with the Methodist Episcopal
Church, of which she remained loyal
and faithful member, manifesting in life
and character the genuine quality of her
faith. In her home life she was all that
a Christian mother should be, always
kind and sympathetic, endeavoring to
train up her children in the way they
should 90, if she erred at all it was al
ways on the side of leniency and mercy.
As a neighbor and friend she was social,
entering into the sympathies OF Others
and willingly gave those ministries of
helpfulness that won their esteem and
confidence.
Nine years ago she had shook from
which she never fully recovered and
which deprived her of the privileges she
had formerly enjoyed, but in the midst
of suffering she was accomplishing and
showed the same self-sacriticing spirit
for the good of others. She has passed
away to the larger life, but the in
fiuence, memory and fragrance of her
life here abides with us. Blessed are
the dead which die in the Lord from
henceforth: Yea, saith the Spirit, that
they may rest from their labors, and
their works do follow them.
