ONE OF TEN WESTERN MEETINGS
TO DISCUSS PROBLEM TO BE
HELD IN CEDAR RAPIDS.
MANY RURAL PARISHES
ARE WITHOUT MINISTER'S
Leaders Of Scientific Agriculture to
Discuss Rural Industries and Rural
Religion on March STRENGTHENING of
Scope of Church Work to Be Plan
ned.
Special to Times-Republican.

Special to Times-Republican.
| Cedar Rapids, March 1s.-One of ten
big meetings to be held in the middle
western states has been arranged for
j this city, when rural industries land
the rural church and it's work will be
discussed.
The country churches in Iowa are
giving much anxiety to those respon-
sible for them. Great numbers of these
churches are vacant, having no min
lister in regular service of their peo-
pie 1t is clearly understood by church
leaders that these vacant pulpits show
the effect of disturbed social and
economic conditions
Farmers are retiring from the coun-
try to the towns and cities. They aban-
don the farms and the institutions of
the country and they give poor sup-
port to the institutions of the towns
or city. An alien population surrounds
the country church and school, both of
which have a hard struggle to maintain
even the grade of service rendered to
the pioneers. Meantime the new pop
ulation requires a better service on the
part of the church and the school
than the pioneers received.
This subject will be discussed in the
First Presbyterian church of Cedar
Rapids, of which Rev. Z. r. Burk-
halter, d. D., is pastor, by group OF
leaders in scientific agriculture and OF
the modern church. The conference
will be under the personal direction of
Rev. Warren H. Wilson, Phi. d. of the
department of church and labor of
New York.
The first speaker will be Prof.
Charles F. Curtis, dean OF the division
of agriculture of Iowa State College:
he will speak upon Changes in Agri-
cultural Life in Their Effect Upon the
Church." Rev. W. II. Horned D. D.. of
Ottumwa, will tell the story of the
inclusion in his parish Of whole
township about Ottumwa and the con-
solidation of several country churches
under the leadership of trained lay
men.
Rev. C. H. Purmort, D. D.. Presby-
terrain superintendent for Iowa, will
speak upon THE Kind of Minister
Needed in the Country" and Rev.
James NJ. Currens, of Traer, upon THE
Prophetic Function of the Country
Church" DR.. Wilson will speak brief
ly in opening and will conduct at the
close an open parliament upon The
Needed Reconstruction of Country
Churches" He viii also deliver in the
evening a. popular address upon The
Church and the Bread Winner"
The PURPOSE Of this conference is the
framing of a constructive policy by
which the service of the country
churches shall be made more thor
ough, more social and more religious.

MILLIONS OF LIVES LOST.
An Awful Toll Collected by consump-
tion-Many Unnecessary Deaths from
This Disease.

If people could only understand that
systemic catarrh is an internal disease
that external applications can not cure,
they would not need to be warned SO
often about this malady, which. when
neglected, paves the way oftentimes for
consumption, at the cost of millions Of
lives every year. Yet catarrh may be
cured. If the right treatment is en-
ployed.
catarrh is caused by a general dis
eased state of the sytem which leads
commonly to annoying and perhaps
serious local conditions, which may
prove a fertile breeding ground for
consumption. External remedies give
but temporary ease.
The only way to successfully lreat
catarrh is by employing medicine Whlch
is absorbed and carried by the plooo
to all parts OF the system, so that the
mucous membrane or internal lining or
the body is toned up and made capable
OF resisting the Infection of consump-
ton and other diseases.
We have a remedy prepared from the
prescription of a physician VINO Tor
thirty years studied and made catarrh
a specially, and whose record was d
patient restored to health in every case
where MS treatment NeiS AOiiO'N -
prescribed. That remedy is ReXaH
Mucu-Tone. We are SO positive that II
will completely overcome catarrh in all
its various forms. whether acute or
chronic, that We promise to return ev-
cry penny paid us for the medicine III
every case where it fails or for any
reason does not satisfy the user.
We want you to try ReNa1l Mucu-
Tone on our recommendation and
guarantee. We are right here where
YOU live, and you do not contract any
obligation or risk when you try ReNaii
Mucu-Tone on our guarantee we
have Rexall Mucu-Tone in two sizes, %
cents and 81. Very often the taking
of one 5o-cent bottle is sufficient TO
make a marked impression upon the
case. Of course in chronic cases
longer treatment is necessary The
average in such instances IS three IL
bottles Remember you can obtain
Rexau Remedies in Marshalltown only

Special to Times-Republican.
Manchester, March 1S-Following thu
defeat of the measure put before the
rural school precincts on Monday as
to the advisability of instituting a un-

has been ascertained that on Sunday
and Monday two agents representing

the districts to De affected by the vote,
endeavoring to secure a majority vote
against the measure, which they We're
in part successful.
On Sunday the two gentlemen hired
livery rig and drove out in the coun-
try, stopping at the farm houses and
giving literature to the farmers against
this project, which had it passed
would have been one of the triumphs
of the year in Delaware county school
business.
In some instances the clever agents
tried to offer money to several influ-
entail farmers for their vote and in
fiuence against the bill. It has also
been ascertained that the men placed
literature in the rural mail boxes, in
direct violation of the government
laws on the matter, and this has been
taken UP with the postoffice depart
ment with the idea of prosecuting the
company.
The contract entered into every third
year by the board of precinct school
directors, expires during this year

the local feeling is such that the con-
tract will probably be awarded to one
of the twenty-one competitors of the
American company, who have held this
contract for twenty successive years.
