Power in Your Life.
"There is power in the life of the
man or woman who abhors sin. Those
who never cease to hate sin have great
power in the church. Those who would
die before they would knowingly
trample Gods will under foot have
great yower. The world can always tell
whether you are led by the flesh of by
God. Jesus Christ had his struggles,
greatly lessened his struggles and his
suffering if he had adjusted his man
ner of living to satisfy his enemies, but
he would have lowered Gods standard.
You can not serve God and mammon.
You con not serve God and the devil.
I could win the friendship Of the sa-
loon by preaching a sermon in favor

so quickly it would make my head
swim.

to empty themselves of things of the
world so that he can fill them up with
his power God does not need more
of us, but we need more of him.
Avoid Questionable Things.
There is great power in the life of
the man or woman who avoids ques-
tionable things. You christians, you
church members, live so that you will
be above suspicion. You can not be a
power for God and play cards. CAD to
the theater, or the card party or dance.
You may not become a gambler,
neither may your som but perhaps
your neighbor can by going to card
parties. Your influence, that is what
counts, and it is one of the things for
which you are responsible. There are
many to whom you are an inspiration.
Yoy We're not born to wrap things
about this world by your influence.
Be Positive Christian.
There is great power in the man or
woman who leads a positive christian
life. o how much power there is in
positive religion. o how much power a
christian has who has a Strong, bright
and shining face. The secret of shin

YOU CAN NOT SERVE

Be a Witness for God by tho Live. You
Lead, Advises the Evanselist-The
Man or Woman Who Abhors Sin,
and Who Lives Positive Life Has
Power.

How to have power for God was the
theme of Rev. Mr.. Sundays afternoon
sermon at the tabernacle to an audi
ence Of 500 people. AS are most of his
afternoon sermons this one was di-
rected at church members, and the
evangelist told them not only how they
might be powerful for God, but why
they were not so. He depicted the life
the christian must lead if he would be a
power in Gods cause.
He also showed some Of the
things which rob the church
member and christian of the
much needed power. His tex:
was Acts 1, IS. "But ye shall receive
power, after that the Holy Ghost IS
come into you: and ye shall be wit
nesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and
in all Judea, and in Samaria, and unto
the uttermost part of the world"
False Witnesses.
His sermon, in part, was as follows:
Jesus Christ staked mis- life on the
utterances of his claims of being the
son of God. That he was is witnessed
by those who have accepted him.
Amidst all the chicanery of The
law and the bribing of judges and jur-
les there is one thing that they mus:
have and that is witnesses. "a witness
is one who has information which other
people are not supposed to know. It is
la sad thing to see persons testify to

go upon the stand and prove that they
We're testifying to a lie. It's sad
thing for you to testify that you are
a christian and have some one else go
upon the witness stand and prove that
what you said was a lie. It's bad for
you and it's bad for the cause of Jesus
Christ.
Christians Are Watched.
THE eyes of the heather nations are
turned toward the christian nations, to
which they look for the truth. The eyes
of the world are upon those who pro-

Be Gentle and Self Sacrificing.
"There is power in the man or wom-
an who lives a gentle, unselfish, self
sacrificing life. Do not live for self
alone. Do for others, and help others.
1t takes something like this revival to
bring out the real man and woman in
some people and the real dog in 9TH
ers.
Let the church Of Jesus get out Of
its miserable hide bound conditions and
the chasm between it and the working
world and the lowly people will be
bridged over
LET it go out and bring unto itself

should come to this city where do you
think he would go? believe he would
go to your submerged DISTRICTS to your
red light district and speak to those
who are down and who yearn for q
kind word of encouragement.
"The church lives in its beautiful
home away off there, with Its skirts
drawn close about it, and it makes lit
tie or no effort to reach the unsaved
who are away over here. When the
church goes out and extends the glad
hand to the sinners it will be accom-
plishing its purpose.

no guage whatever to the actual con-
sumption of cotton. The reduction Of
consumption is enormous. Most of the
Liverpool brokers, he states, are now re
selling cotton for spinners on account of
the paralysis of the cotton industry in
England and all other cotton using cOun-
tries brought about by the exOrbitant
price Of raw material.
THE secretary Of the Arkwright club
reports a continued large reduction in
consumption in America. ShOrt-time run
ming agreements in home continental
countries have terminated. but, follow
ing the lead of England. spinneTs are get
ting these extended into next year.
Sir Hesketh Bell, high commissioner Of

siOner Of Uganda, speaking yesterday at
Manchester said the cotton shipped out
Of Uganda amounted to S250, $50 in value.
In ten years time 1t would be ten
times that amount. The natives wanted

realized they could not got these things

Next Years Pageant.
The great pageant, ''The Story Of Lon
DON" to be held next summer at the
crystal palace, is to be conducted on a
colossal scale, the STORY being told by
the help of 1000 performers.
Perhaps the most interesting feature
OF the whole affair VIII be the introduc-
ton OF the cloud curtain for definitely
marking off the various scenes. For so
huge an amphitheatre-it will be designed
on the lines OF those Of ancient Greece
the raising and lowering of a curtain
would be impossible: and even If II were
not, the effect would be theatrical.
While the spectator is gazing on, say,
cluster of ancient Britons returning
from the chase, a dense white cloud will
rise slowly between him and the actors.
1t will be quite impossible for any eye
to see through the cloud. and when il
has dispersed another scene win be IN
readiness, and fresh characters will have
taken their places
The cloud curtain is a development Of
the steam curtain invented by Wagner;
and 1t is intended at the evening perform
ances to produce some beautiful effects
on 1t BY means Of cOlored lights.

New Station at Plymouth.

A large force of workmen are busy
clearing away the ruins of the railroad
station and Pemigewasset House at
Plymouth, N. H.. which were burned
Wednesday. Monday morning work
was commenced on the temporary
structure for railroad station directly
south of the lot on which the Pemige-
wasset House stood and the building
will be large enough to take care of the
ticket Office, telegraph and express bust
ness, besides giving ample room for the
conveniences of the travelling public.
Contrary to all rumors The Weirs will
not be made a stopping point for trains,
other than the usual schedule, and that
no restaurant or dining rooms will be
operated by the railroad there. declares

Automobile Notes.

The latest automobile fad, and one
that bids fair to become widely popular,
is the radiator image" These are
made of different metals and represent
a variety of objects. There is the eagle,
the bulldog, policeman, Gabbo, Billiken
and many other well-known figures.
MANY cars may now be seen on the
streets of St. Louis with one of these
little forms firmly attached to the
radiator cap
According to a prominent automobile
supply house, the demand for these
radiator decorations is so brisk that it is
difficult to keep a supply on hand.
There is something fascinating about
one of the images poised at the front of
the car" said a motorist the other day.
One who had Ga5bo fastened to the
radiator cap of his car said he had not
been arrested nor had any tire trouble
since he put the idol on the car.
And another fad. The automobile
enthusiasts are ransacking their brains
and historic and NEUROLOGICAL libraries
for names for their machines. Every up
to-date automobile has it's definite name
the same as every Pullman car. They
run from the sublime to the ridiculous
as, for instance, THE Mimi" which
means-not Margaret Anglin in Henry
Miller's 1.-THE Only Way" but signifies
that this particular car can run a Mile a
Minute, if you please.

time. More prominence is given to the
movement than to the shaping of letters
but many of the pupils now write a

great help to them in the future. Most
of the work in this grade and in the

Eczema Lodges in the Skin.
Not Blood Disease-Cured by Oil of winter
green Compound.

For many years eczema was supposed
to be blood disease and was erroneous
ly treated as such, but now the best au-
thorities agree that eczema is only skin
disease and must be cured through the
skin. The eminent skin specialist, DR.. D.
D. Dennis, first discovered the eczema
germ and his discovery was quickly
taken up in both Germany and France.
To kill the eczema germ and at the
same time heal the skin, DR.. Dennis COM
pounded oil of wintergreen, thymol, gly-
cerine, etc. The remedy is a liquid, not
a mere salve, hence it sinks right into
the pores of the skin. Washing with
this oil of wintergreen compound seems
to take the itch away at once; soon the
scales drop away and the disease dis
appears. c. c. Bingham, St. Johnsbury,
and 0. B. Cutting & Son, Concord, VT,

fact that the American Liver Tablets

eating coarse food, physical exercise,
regularity in habit, will cure large
percentage of the cases. Yet many
require laxative at times and every
home should contain The American

ment. The dose is one or two at night
