he general convention.

the general convention.
This law provides that on special
occasions rectors may invite other
than Episcopal ministers to occupy
Episcopal pulpits, provided the bishop
of the diocese gives his approval.
These other men are described in the
new law as "so-called christian men." "
This description has been much criti-
cised. within and without the Episco-
pal church. Disputes have arisen
also as to what are and what are not
special occasions.
What course the bishops will pur-
sue in the matter is problematical.
While it will have very real bearing
upon the high and low parties, the &C
ton of the bishops, it is said, will not
be determined upon party lines. There
is likely to be dignified discussion,
and decision either to lay on the
table or to give the Interpretation as
desired Whatever the outcome, the
agitation is certain to go on until the
| fall of 1910, when the general conven-
ton again meets, and when there are
certain to be efforts to amend the
present unsatisfactory law, which is
being denounced alike by both the
high and low church elements.

MEN HELPLESS AS CHILDREN
When Taken Suddenly lII-Here Is
common-sense Safeguard.

81 H. y
Big, strong man is as helpless in
FAINT when he is suddenly i'll.
The sturdiest chap in town usually
loses his self-control. and is utterly
unable to regard his condition with
the common sense that characterizes
his everyday actions.
For example: He comes home tired,
cats a heavy dinner and sits down to
read and smoke away quiet eve
ming.
Suddenly he notices weight on his
stomach; then sharp pains around his
heart, and a feeling of suffocation.
Thoughts of heart disease" rush over
him. and in his agony he fears the
worst.
His trouble was acute indigestion,
brought on by overlooking his tired
stomach.
A couple of Rexall Dyspepsia Tab
lets would have given him instant re-
lief-would have saved him hours of
suffering.
Garry package of Rexall Dyspep-
STA Tablets in your vest pocket or
keep them in your room. Take one
after each heavy meal, and Indigestion
can never bother you.
RexalI Dyspepsia Tablets cure
stomach troubles by supplying the one
element, the absence of which in the
gastric juices. causes indigestion and
dyspepsia. They enable the stomach
to digest all kinds of food and to
quickly convert it into rich red blood.
We know what Rexall Dyspepsia
Tablets are and what they win do.
We guarantee them to cure indiges-
ton and dyspepsia If they fail, we
