WINTER PRUNING FOR WrTHERTIp
(By II. S. FAwCErr.)

Withortip is one OF the worst fungus
diseases Of citrus trees in Florida L.,
the winter season, diseased trees may be
distinguished by the ycllowing and
falling of their leaves, the dropping OF
their fruit land the dying of their tiwgs

with withertip will begin to lose its
inside leaves. The outer leaves then
turn yellow and fall, leaving many bare

How To Prune.
The important thing in pruning is to
CIT out enough of the wood, in order
toEct rid. not only of the bare branches,
but also of all the branches that show
even a slight sign Of the disease. In
severe cases Of withcrtip, there are seen,
in addition to bare branches, many
limbs on which the ycllowish leaves are
about to fail. Close examination will
show that the disease is slowly making
it's way bacl; and poisoning these limbs,
This poisoning may start from an in
lection at the tip or from an infection
on 4 side branch lower down, from which
the poisonous effect has spread to the
main limb Somctim IS only one side Of
a tree. or only one branch, is severely
affected while the remaining part Of ;nc

When pruning, care should be- taken to

Of a branch or limb, so as not to leave

RESULT OF REVIVAL MEETINGS
Many Declare they Desire to Lead Christian Lfe-Ad- dresses Electric Railroad and On The Inside-Dr. Stoushs Son Has Fighting Chance. :.

On Sunday the union evangelistic campaign in this city entered upon it's third week and two impressive meet ings were held under the leadership of Rev. F. O. Cunningham, which bore fruit in about twoscore of persons ex- pressing desire to lead a Christian life, when the invitation was extended by the evangelist. Both meetings were held in the armory, one at o'clock for young people, with an audience of from 500 to 500, and the other in the evening, when about 2,000 people were present.
 A telegram was received during the afternoon by MT. Spooner from Dr. Slough, in his home in Illinois, giv- ing a somewhat hopeful message re- garding Dr. Stough's son, whose seri- ous illness with pneumonia called him away last week. The telegram read: Crisis passing. Fighting chance. Ask prayers in all the churches. This news was announced in both the meetings.
 At the services on Sunday, the work of the volunteer chorus choir under MT. Spooner was a specially inspiring feature and practically all the seats provided for them on the platform were filled each etinne.
 Afternoon Meeting.
 The afternoon meeting opened with a song service led by the choir, and prayer was offered by Rev. J. R. Very of the Third Baptist church. Rev. w. T. Thayer of the First Baptist church, chairman of young peoples work. pre- sided, speaking few suggestive words of the change in attitude in fifty years. They were the days of reverence and conscience fifty years ago, he said, when the Bible was the textbook of the home, but irreverence was the sin of the young people today, and we had come together to be led back to the secret place where we may hear God speaking.
 After prayer by Rev. Dr. L. L. West of the Second Congregational church, the sermon of the afternoon was giv- en by Rev. MT. Cunningham in a per- suasive discourse upon the theme, Electric Railroads. This was preced- ed by a finely rendered tenor solo, The Prayer, by George E. Turner, while the collection was taken.
 Electric Railroads.
 Referring to the use Jesus made of the common things of life, to illus trate the spiritual lessons he was try ing to teach, the speaker made use of the parts of the railroad for his saying that the rails were the shall's and the shalt not's of God, the precepts and the prohibitions of the word. of God to fit the flanges of human character. The road is bal lasted with the glorious promises of the word of God and the restrictions of the track mean safety, lesson es- pecially needed for young people. The railroad is straight, for the curved line into the bypaths is not the line of Christian beauty. The car, too, must be fitted to run upon the rails, and the fundamental need is a new heart, a transformed life to reach up and take hold on the power of the holy spirit
 The source of all power is God him. self and the place of contact with the power he furnishes is the open tomb of Jesus Christ. Young people need

TRUTH ABOUT CAIARRH
Sensible Methods Will Cure It. The Lee & 0SgOod Co. Guarantees
 HYomei to Cure Catarrh

Catarrh can never be cured by talk ing medicines into the stomach nor by sprays, atomizers 0r touches.
 Intelligent physicians have long ago discarded such ideas and not one Of them would be worth consideration were 1t not for the fact that unscrup- ulous persons prey upon the ignor- ance of the people in regard to new discoveries.
 Catarrh is caused by germs and just as long as these germs thrive In the folds, crevices, hooks and corners of the mucous membrane that line the nose, throat and chest, just so long will you have catarrh.
 There is only one way to cure ca tarrh, and that Is to kill the germs.
 There is only one remedy that win kill the germs when it gets where the germs are, and that is Hyomei.
 Hyomei is made chiefly from Aus tralian Eucalyptus and Eucalyptol combined with other germ killing an- tlseptics. Just breathe it in through the hard rubber inhaler that comes with each outfit and relief is imme- diate. Used regularly for a few weeks Hyomei Spronounced High-o- mel will cure chronic catarrh.

BAZAAR FOR CHURCH BENEFIT
Sum of $165 Realized for MontviIIe
 Center Church.

The second and closing day of the bazaar held in Palmertown in aid of the funds of Montville Center Congre- gational church proved even more successful than the first. On the second afternoon and evening the attendance was larger than the first day. and the patronage of the booths proved so gen. erous that when closing time arrived there were very few articles remain ing unsold. The net result of the two days is that $165 will be handed over to the treasurer of the church.
 To the untiring efforts of Mrs. Eliz- abeth Burchard of Palmertown is largely due the success of the under taking, and her work as chairman of the committee was ably seconded by Miss Anna Robertson as assistant and by every member of the committee, which includes John c. Fellows, Miss Jessie Scholfield, Mrs. Paul Glassbren- ner, Miss Carrie Parker, David A. Johnson, John Lynch and Fred w. Chapel

the perception of the track, the pur- post to put them on it. and then the power to follow Gods precepts. The promise of all power is not the exclus- i've property of pastors and deacons, but it is for the young people to re- ceive 1t and attempt the heroic things to which they are called and be a blessing to the community i'll which they live.
 The sermon was followed by num- Der of hands raised, when the invita- ton was given, to indicate desire Tor a Christian life. The baritone solo, Is He Yours, was expressiyely rem dered in the fine voice of MT. Herring, and prayers were offered by Rev. c. H. Ricketts, Rev. Jerome Greer ana Rev. MT. Cunningham. containing pe- titions for Dr. Stough's. son.
 For the evening meeting the armory was filled nearly to it's capacity. While the collection was taken the chorus was heard, and MT. Herring sang The Nine ty and Nine with admirable expression
 Dr. West addressed few earnest words to the congregation upon the i'm pcrtance of prayer that all might Le realized which had been expected from this evangelistic campaign.
 On the Inside.
 "On the Inside" was the theme of Rev MT. Cunningham's practical and forceful sermon from the text, "Of him are you in Christ Jesus who is made unto us wisdom and righteousness, and qualification and redemption" It is a central truth of the gospel that re- ligion worth having goes beyond the superficial and brings the soul into touch with the heart of Christ. In the ordinary walks of life it is always the people on the inside who get the most value and it is so in religious affairs. Mere contact with the gospel produces conflict, but acceptance brings light ano peace and joy that is resident and resonant in the heart producing com prehension of it's beauty and loveliness that is impossible to one refusing to accept it.
 On the inside is to be in the place of comprehension and the place of safety, for there never was but one man in whom neither earth nor heaven or hell could say there was no flcM. That man was Jesus Christ and through him We are to have righteous ness if any. On the inside is also ihe place of character, the kind we need to GO his work and be useful to him. It is lastly the place of redemption, for Jesus bought the right of freedom for you and me by his crucifixion to shut oI.t our sins from the face of the fa- tier. and he is waiting for our ac,,i-- ance cf his invitation to come Un the iasice.
 Many rtsl onses were re- vel ts ;he i7e'ia. uT to indicate a ds,l". for Christian life. A short after meeting concluded the service.
 The following were the announce ments for the week: Meetings at the armory every evening but Saturday; Monday night topic, A Man of the World; cottage prayer meetings Tues day and Friday at g o'clock; meetings Tuesday and Wednesday afternoons at Central Baptist church; Thursday to be Bible conference day with meeting at armory at 10 a. m., and 7.SO p. m.; Friday to be mothers day.

TRoURLEIN TRAMPs' ROOM.
Local Characters, with Bottle. Had a Fight with Some of the Out of Towners, and Police Interfered.

There were a dozen in the tramps' quarters at police station Saturday night. All went well for a while, but about midnight there was trouble and Captain Linton was obliged to quiet them several times. Finally it became necessary to place two or three un- der arrest and two of the local char acters, who had been given place to sleep. were locked up in cells and the trouble ceased. One of the two, John Cantwell. had pint of whiskey in his pocket. which was half gone, and that is supposed to have been the cause of the row.
