One hotel extends an unusual cour-
tesy-if 1t be courtesy-to its guests.
Over the desk where most Of the bust
ness Of the hotel is done hangs a sign
which says. '"The clerk now on duty is
Mr.. Smith," or Mr.. Jones, as the case
may be. Whether the sign is intended
to save the feelings Of guests or clerks
isn't quite plain. 1t saves the clerks
from being addressed as Hey, you."

their antiseptic and blood cleansing infiu-
ences the complexion retains its freshness

and feel ten years younger" Smiths Pine
apple and Butternut Pills always make old
age comfortable, and promote digestion and
nutrition by their specific action on the

many ills.

First Aid For ivy POISONING.

The remedies prescribed for poison
ivy are various, but are of such ma
ture that their use without the advice
Of physician is risky. If one realizes
at the time that he has come into con-
tact with poison ivy he should rub the
hands at once with fresh, moist, fine
soil, and this may remove the irritat-
ing oil before it becomes absorbed, but
the work must be done very quickly.
If the first sign of the disease is the
itching which heralds the coming Of

suited at once but If none be at hand

A FoREeLEAM OF THE KINGDOM.
International Bible Lesson for July "a,
'1o-(Matt. II: 1-s, 1920.

Life. to most people, has a remark
abe resemblance to the geography of
the planet. 1t is characterized by
stormy seas. and verdant fields, by
peaceful valleys and vast prairies, by
Saharas of barrenness and oases of
plenty, by monotonous plains and
mountain ranges. But, while in the
natural world, millions are shut in by
their environment, and are compelled
to remain within the bounds of their
habitation," in the mental and spiri-
tual world no such barriers exist. The
mind Is Independent of locality. The
body may be chained to the dull,
treadmill existence that knows no
change from years end to years end,
but the spirit, on the wings of in
spiration may fly away from corrod-
ing care to revel in inspiring scenes
and to drink at life's eternal fountains
Such an exalted experience was
that of Christ at his TRANSPORTATION.
1t was a mountain top incident. 1t
was luminous moment. Taking with
him the three mighty ones, Peter,
James and John, the triumvirate upon
whose shoulders was to rest the bur-
den of his church In after years most
largely, he left the dreary plain and
climbed the rugged sides of snow-cap-
ped Mt Hermon, lifting its mighty
bulk 10000 feet above the sea, and
the portals of eternity opened. There,
surrounded with supernatural beings,
His face did shine as the sun, and
his garments were white as the light"
1t was a foregleam of what shall be.
Wrapped in a glorious cloud, in an
ecstacy unutterable, shaking off the
weight of care and trouble the soul of
the Perfect Man claimed it's rightful
heritage and revelied in conscious vic
tory.

MILFORD, Del, Nov. 4.-Milford is
now experiencing one OF the most re-
markable religious revivals in its
history, and it continues unabated in
zeal and interest. The Methodist
Protestants are conducting It. They
decided late in the summer to invade
Milford. The Rev. ]. A. Bennett, pas
tor of the NJ. P. Church at Harring-
ton, came here and started services
in a tent. They grew in attendance
and interest. In a short time the re-
ligious fervor seized the services and
revival fires were kindled. Dozens OF
persons went to the mourner's bench
and professed conversion.
The next move was the building Of
a temporary church. A lot was pur-
chased on Front street and there a
frame chapel was erected a few weeks
ago. It was put up at practically the
cost of the lumber. Members of the
church did the carpenter work, and
other furnished the services Of car
penters. The result was an attractive
little edifce.
It was paid for in one day. Pastor
Bennett asked for contributions, and
when he got enough money to defray
the expenses he quit collecting, say
ing he didn't want any more money.
