FIGHTERS IN THE MAJORITY
Tired Of Part He Had Been
Playing.

Representative Harry Maynard of
Virginia tells the story of how a re-
ligiOus old negro in his district put a
stop to the exercise of Christian char
ity in the congregation of which he
was a member. 1t seems that it was
a practise in the church tt excom-
municate for one year any member
who had been guilty of a blood fight
that is, any man who had attacked
another with a pistol or a razor.
At the end of the year, if the Of
fender wished reinstatement, he could
go to the "mourners' bench" rise and
declare his repentance, and be forgiven
by the congregation. This went on
for many years. At last a young
darky who had been in a particularly
Objectionable broil appeared for rein
statement. The pastor made an elo-
quent appeal to the congregation and
everybody began to shout and say
Amen"
1t was at this point that the old
negro arose and said holly:
Look hyah, pahson; eber since l
been a membuh of dis congergashun,
dar ain been nothin' but fightin' an
fuhgivin'-an' l been doing all de
fuhgivin':: Use tired of it.'

BABY'S SCALP CRUSTED

"Our little daughter, when three
months old, began to break out on the
head and we had the best doctors to
treat her, but they did not do her any
good. They said she had eczema. Her
scalp was a solid scale all over. The
burning and itching was so severe that
she could not rest, day or night. We
had about given up all hopes when we
read of the Cuticura Remedies. We at
once got a cake of Cuticura Soap, a
box of Cuticura Ointment and n bot
tie of Cuticura Resolvent, and fol-
lowed directions carefully. After the
first dose of the Cuticura R~esolvent,
we used the Cuticura Soap freely and
applied the Cuticura Ointment. Then
she began to improve rapidly and in
two weeks the scale came off her
head and new hair began to grow. In
a very short time she was well. She is
now sixteen years of age and a pic
ture of health. We used the Cutl-
cura Remedies about five weeks, reg
ularly, and then we could not tell she
had been affected by the disease. We
used no other treatments after we
found out what the Cuticura Remedies
would do for her. j. Fish and Ella M.

the good sister said that the horse
had taken fright at a passing train
and bolted and that the wreck of the
rig had prevented her from being on
time.
My dear sister, such little things
should not make you late for divine
services. You should trust in the
