his text, "If thou believedst, thou
should see the glory of God" John
.11:40.
Mr.. Taylor drew from this text the
lesson that while some of Gods
promises were unconditional, by far
the larger portion of them we're
conditional. There is an eff" con-
nected with them, and if a man is
to enjoy them he must do his part
in the fulfilling the conditions. Gods
mercies may prove blessing or
otherwise, according to the use that
we make of them.
Mr.. Taylor spoke very strongly
against Incidence and Indifference
posing as faith That the reason
why the windows of heaven were not
opened and blessings poured out un-
til there should not be room to con-
tain it is because Christian people
are not bringing the tithes into the
store-house; because they are not
willing to work for God. If there is
to be great blessing poured out in
these meetings it will be necessary
for the Chritian people to comply
with the conditions. When Christ
raised Lazarus from the tomb, He
told those standing about to roll
away the stone from the door of the
tomb. He did not tell them to put
life into the dead body because they
could not do that, but he expected
them to do everything that was
within their power. The same pow
er that raised Lazarus from the
dead, that tore in twain the veil of
the Temple-could have torn off
those grave-clothes, but that was in
the power of those standing by, and
so Jesus expected them to do it, The
people of Salem must roll away the
stones of Incidence, Indifference,
sefishness, pride, etc.
Mr.. Taylor said that there were
some who were afraid of his meth
DDS. These methods were the re-
suit of years of experience, and sue
cess. He said that if he could find
any other methods that would give
better results he would gladly use
them, or, to use his own expression
he was always ready to trade tackle
with any man who has a longer
string of fish tha he has.

down for a few days this winter due
to high water and it is probable that
the same trouble will occur again.
River Farmers Busy.
Ranchers residing along the Will
lamette both north and south of this
city, are preparing to move their
stock to higher grounds and are
busily engaged in placing their farm
implements and household goods in
position to be hauled out of reach
of the water should it continue to
rise. Last Thanksgiving Day, many
farms north of Salem were sub
merged and many head of stock
were lost by drowning. On the low
lands south of here, the farmers
have taken due precaution at this
time and many Of them have already
moved to higher ground.
There is a great difference of opin-
ION as 10 the eileCl lHt CHluOOh WILL
have upon the condition of the Will
lamette. Some of the farmers in
the lowlands are already preparing
for one of the biggest floods in the
history Of the country, but most of
those who have lived here for any
considerable number of years, de-
clare there is no danger whatever,
They say the very fact that the snow
is from four to ten feet deep in
the mountains makes 1t impossible
for any floods to result unless the
should continue for three or four
days or be accompanied by two or
three days rain. They say that the
great amount of snow makes it pos
sible for IT to hold the water, after
it has started to melt and that for
this reason there can be nothing
more than gradual rise. The wa

to these prophets, but they think

TAKE OFF THE FAT
WHERE IT SHOWS

Most women suner much humilia-
tion because of great quantities of
fat, so located that, no matter how
they dress, everybody sees that they
are abnormal. This is the day of the
slender figure, and fat women are
simply not tolerated either in busi-
ness or social affairs. Women may
not know it, but when men see fat
woman pass them on the street make
all manner of sympathetic remarks
about her. They do not mean to be
unkind or to seem unmanly, but it is
natural for a man to dislike fat on
a woman. Where fat shows the most
there is where it must be removed,
and as quickly as possible. The hot
weather dresses seem to be made for
the fat woman's misery and the slen-
der womans delight. They expose all
the charms of women and her ugli-
ness as we'll. Exercise and diet will
not remove fat. This has been proved
The famous Marmola prescription,
which has has met with such phenom-
email success and has so many of our
society women as it's sponsors, is now
being sold in tablet form to meet the
demands of the public for this style
of treatment. These little tablets go
into your system just like food. They
stop the stomach and digestive ap-
paratus from producing fat and re-
duce the fat upon the body at the rate
of from 2 to Is ounces a day. They
are harmless and can be carried in
your purse and taken even after you
have INDUCED in a nearly meal away

ing carmen to arbitration, a general
strike may be avoided.
1t is not likely that they can be
forced to recede from their refusal
to arbitrate or that they will, of
their own volition, consent to arbi-
tration.
Assured of a general response 10
their demands, labor leaders are
perfecting their plans for call out
of the unionists next Saturday.
Philadelphia is torn by dissentions
both politically and industrially. So
many conflicting interests of trade
and politics are involved in the set
tlement of the street car strike that
the leaders on each side are fearful
of being compelled to accept unfav-
orable terms. The political leaders
also are cautious about it, as both
sides have power politically.
There is only one view point for
the company; that of absolute sur
render by the men and return to
the company as individuals and not
as unionists.
The view point of the men is that
of fair wages and recognition of the
union organization. The men may
recede on the wage question in the
interest of peace, but they say they
cannot renounce the principals OF
unionism in which they believe their
greatest protection from injustice
lies.

The case of Simmons VS.. Curtis, a
breach of promise suit, was tried
before Judge McNary in the Circuit
court room last evening The jury
found for the plaintiff in the sum of
$500 Is was a very interesting
trial and well conducted by the at
torneys in the case. The plaintiff
was a buXom young girl of ninteen
years and the defendant was an en-
bryonic lawyer of twenty-five. The
plaintiff testified that she had gone
with the defendant for about three
years, that he had been very atten-
tive to her and sepnt money freely,
that he proposed marriage to her,
she accepted and the date was set
for February /, 1910. That little
while before this date she and her
father went with Mr.. Curtis down
town where he bought a lot of fine
furniture which he had placed in a
house on State ST., which he had in
herited from his father. She al
legged. corroborated by her father,
that all preparations were made for
the event, the guests arrived, ETC.,
but the bridegroom did not put in
his appearance. She told of her
mental anguish and disappointment.
For which reasons the plaintiff
prayed for $4,000 damages. The
defendant acknowledged knowing
the girl and having talked about
matrimony but denied having asked
her to marry him. He posed as a
green country boy He said his
father sent him to law school be-
cause he did not have enough sense
to feed the hogs. The defense in
troduced a letter purporting to show
the intimate relations of Miss Sim

intended to marry him, also that she

you must know that the modes of the

takes women of the Cleopatra and Di
Vernon type to do them justice. No;

The Di Vernon style. fguratively

the Vatican gown unreservedly. but
little by little the different phases of
