PiTTSBURG PASTOR
Occupies Pulpit of Winthrop Street
Baptist Church Sunday Evening.

Rev. w. +. Meyer, pastor of the Oak
land Baptist church of Pittsburg, Pa
occupied the pulpit of the winthrop
Street Baptist church Sunday evening,
Mr.. Meyer is a brother-in-l law of Rev.
B. P Hope, the pastor of the church
Mr. Meyer took the first Psalm as
the basis of his remarks and preached
practical and helpful discourse
which was listened to with close at
tention by an audience, which COM
pletely filled the vestry of the church.
He said in part:
1T is fitting that this Psalm should
be called the first Psalm for it tells us
of the way of life and the way OF
DEATH 1t begins by warning against
progress in the wrong direction. The
righteous man delights in the law )f
the Lord and in God-like manner of
living. consequently he is not caught
in the drift that takes a man away
from his purpose and aim in life.
1.-The righteous man is planted like
tree. God knows how to make us
prosper He knows what is good for
us in the long run. Whatever this
righteous man doeth shall prosper.
The failure is only seemingly SO. The
urgedly shall not prosper in the judg-
ment, for that is the crisis, the testing

Weigh Yourself Before Using

Weigh yourself before commencing to
use Samose, the great f1esh-forming food.
The wonderful sale on this preparation
since first introduced in Augusta and the
remarkable results following it's use have
made Bowditch. Webster & Co such en-
thusiastic believers in the great value of
Samose that they give their personal
guarantee to refund the money if Sa-
NOSE will not make thin people fat and
restore strength and health to those who
use it,
This is strong guarantee, but Bow
ditch, Webster & Co. have seen SO many
of their customers who a few weeks ago
looked like walking skeletons become
plump and well, solely through the us ,
of Samose that they feel they cannot say
too much to induce people to try it.
This marvellous fiesh-forming food is as

up the weakened system. helps to as
