PROGRESS OF WORK
IN SOUTH AFRICA

Short Street, No, Is, East London,
Cape Colony. South Africa. Nov. 20
The work in Africa is progressing
slowly but surely and converts once
made have the faculty for holding
fast the Iron rod" and an intense
desire to gather TO Zion.
In some towns the elders have to
face great opposition and even violence
yet. upheld by the spirit of the Lord
they fear not but continue TO preach
the true word of God in face of all,
not only by word but by example.
Pleasant at all times, and ever ready
TO help the needy and afflicted with
the power of their priesthood or their
purse. the lives they live may be
held up to the world az shining eX-
ample of how men should live. 1t has
been my privilege to see them heal
the sick and In one case child of
years old (mY wife's sister) mad
canker in the cheek and the hospital
doctors could do nothing for her but
express their sorrow and say that at
the best the child's face would be
eaten away and she would be terribly
disflgured. Her mother brought her
to the elders who administered to her.
Her face at the time had great sore
about an inch and a half across
which was gradually growing larger.
Two days after they had administered
to her the sore had practically disap-
peared and today she has but small
mark such as surgeons lancet
would make The elders who admins
tered to the child were Elder VIM.

Elders Miller and Boyce report the
meeting of many friends and the hold
ing of some good meetings west of
Frederick. Okla. Similar report comes
from Elders Fullmer and Nuttall OF
Maiden, Mo.
Elders Murdoch and Casper of the
Independence conference, after being
denied lodging several times were very
heartily welcomed by a friend who
has extended such kindness to at
least seventy Mormon elders. Tho
brother Is pleased with the company
of the elders and the influence which
they bear. His home has become
known as the Mormon Headquarters"
Elders H. NJ. Bishop and e. c. Neb-
eker give Gn interesting account OF
having been selected as easy game by
a sectarian preacher and his friends
The game was landed all right, but
was found rather too wary, for the cap
tors were soon glad to let loose. The
elders claim no praise to themselves
but say the Lord makes the weakest
of his servants strong against the wis
dom of man.
News comes from M1dlsonville. TEX"
that our little church built at that
place by the saints and friends of that
vicinity was burned. 1t is very clearly
a case of incendlary origin. We are
very sorry for the occurrence but be-
Hove that the saints will rally and re-
build, and that 1t Will not be long ere
they are worshiping In new house.
They burn our houses. but thank God
they can't burn our religion" is the
language of one informant.

that place and have held their meetings
there for long time. but the Socialists
have been trying to take 1t from them

fere and protect the elders In their
priority and in the use of their permit,
but say that II the elders want the
place they must beat the Socialists to
IT." The matter remains unsettled but
the elders have succeeded quite we'll in
getting the place. The peculiar feature
about II Is that the elders are restricted

DIABETES

From late figures the hope of recoy-
cry under the new emollient treatment
seems to be about as follows:
In people OF sixty and over results
arc quite uniform. probably nine
tenths recovering. While at fifty and
over largo majority of all cases Yield
TO the treatment, below fifty and ap-
preaching forty the disease gets more
stubborn, and between thirty and
forty the percentage Is not high
probably not much over half yielding
Under thirty the percentage is less
and in children recoverles have been
very few and most of those were OBJ
tained with tho aid of skilled physi-
clans forcing nutrition. with alkaline
treatment to prevent formation of
acetones.
The new emollient treatment is
known as Fulton's Diabetic Compound.
