A mother had told her little girl to
be very polite when the minister came
to dinner. The little girl wanted some
butter that was just in front of the
reverend gentleman, so she said:
"In the name of the Lord, dear
pastor, will you please pass me the
butter?"

A Pilgrim in Name
and in Fact.

There lives in Marietta on Washing.
ton street one of the Oldest women in
Cobb County, Mrs. Rebecca Pilgrim
ohe is now 50 years old and has lived
IN Marietta IS years. Her father
moved from Spartanburg, S. c. to
this place in 1915, and she has never
lived out of the city since her coming
mere. During the four years of the
war between the states she remained
at nome, where she lived unmolested
during the months Marietta was in
possession OF the Federals. Some Of
the soldiers of the army boarded at her
mouse. They treated her with the
utmost respect, and guarded her home
and possessions with scrupulous care.
some OF the younger men who board
ed at her house addressed her affec-
tlonately as Mother Pilgrim. Some
years ago one of them, a citizen of
illinois, returned to Marietta to visit
her. He became so devoted to her
that he has ever since sent her. es-
pecially at Christmas, some token of
his esteem.
Mrs. Pilgrim has been a member of
the Methodist Church 70 wears. Verv
few, if any, can be found who have
been pilgrims" for so long a time.
She is Methodist Of the old type. be-
lieving heartily its doctrines and adj
herring strictly to it's discipline.
When she meets her pastor or any
OF her Christian friends, her converse.
ton is wholly about religion. She
impresses one as a pilgrim who has
long been seeking the Celestial CITY.
Mrs. Pilgrim retains all of her
faculties and vigor to a remarkable
degree, and instead of repining and
complaining of the infrmities of old
age, she manifests a bright, cheerful,
hopeful disposition. She illustrates
the doctorine of the Bible that the old
age of the righteous is blessed.

THERE'S NO RISK
II This Medicine Does No
Benefit, You Pay Nothing.

A physician who made h specially
of stomach troubles, particularly dys-
pepsia, after years of study perfected
the formula from which Rexall Dyspep-
STA Tablets are made.
Our experience with Rexall Dyspep-
STA Tablets leads US to believe them TO
be the greatest remedy known for the
relief of acute Indigestion and chronic
dyspepsia. There ingredients are
soothing and healing to the inHamed
membranes of the stomach. They are
rich in persin, one Of the greatest diges-
tive aids known to medicine. The re-
lief they afford is almost immediate.
Their use with persistency and regu-
larity for short time brings about a
cessation of the pains caused by stom-
ach disorders.
Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets will insure
healthy appetite, and digestion and
promote nutrition. AS evidence Of our
sincere faith in Rexall Dyspepsia Tab
let's, we ask you TO try them at our
risk. II they do not give you entire
satisfaction, we will return you the
money you paid US for them, without
question or formality. They come in
three sizes, prices 25 cents, so cents and
81 90. Remember you can obtain them
only at our store,-The RexAll Store,

Church Attendance
Falling Off

DR.. VIM. King, father.in-law of
the I lamented Henry w. Grady,
writing in the last number of the
Wesleyan Christian Advocate, de-
ploresssthe decline in interest and
attendance on Church services in
the following language:
Il have heard it intimated that
the usefulness of the prayer meet
ings has waned, they are no longer
needed as a Church service. Their
decadence is seen and grieved over,
but it is no wonder if the preachers
as a rule hold that opinion Our
class meetings have lost their pow
er and usefulnes. | have not heard
of and therefore not attended a
love feast for years. How comes
it ? What has become of the spirit
that filled the Wesleys? Their
coadjutors and successors, who
turned the world upside down {?
Has it departed to other Christian
denominations whose faith and
consequent earnestness is greater
than ours? Our Church papers
complain of the want of interest in
the work of the Sunday School, the
Christian Endeavor, the subsistence
of the interest in most Church
work. The Sunday morning con-
gregations, though attendance is
fairly good, are not as they should
be. The young are notable for
their absence. The night congre-
cations are almost a farce every
where. In all there are so many
vacant pews-those at the front
presumed to be for the members OF
the Church are rarely full"
The air is full of complaints like
the above. They come to US in
nearly all the Church papers. The
neglect to attend Church punctual-
ly is peculiar to no section of the
country, East, West, North or
South. 1t is very easy to form the
habit of staying away from Church
services and to imagine that we
have good excuses for our neglect.
The indifference of the members of
the Church towards the services Of
the sanctuary is becoming a griev-
GUS. and sadder still to say, an
almost universal complaint.
