DOES CURE BAD COLDS.
Also Ends All Misery From the Grippe
in just Few Hours.

There is not one grain of quinine in
Pape's Cold Compound, which, when
taken every two hours, until three con-
secutive doses are taken, will surely
end the grippe and break up the most
severe cold either in the head, chest,
back, stomach or limbs.
1t promptly relieves the most mis-
cradle neuralgia pains, headache, dull
ness, head and nose stuffed up fever

Pape's Cold Compound is the result
of three years research at a cost Of
more than fifty thousand dollars, and
contains no quinine, which we have
conclusively demonstrated is not eff
feetive in the treatment of colds or
grippe.

Future Looks Bright

The First Methodist church of this
city is planning for a great evange-
listic meeting for next year. At the
regular monthly meeting of the Off
cial board Tuesday night the pastor,
Rev. j. s. Steininger was authorized
to engage strong evangelist to con-
duct the campaign. Mr.. Steininger
has not yet decided upon the man he
will engage, but has a number Of
men under consideration, any of
whom would do excellent service. At
a recent meeting of the Brotherhood
of st. Paul, the name of the organi-
zation was changed to THE Metho-
dist Brotherhood" the name chosen
by the Methodist General Confer
ence for the mems organizations of
the denomination.
Action was taken at the above
meeting of the local Brotherhood by
which its work will be placed upon a
broader basis.
The Sunday school has been thor
oughly graded, and the excellent
graded literature of the denomina-
ton has been substituted for the uni
form lessons formerly employed.
The elementary, intermediate and
junior departments, effected by the
change. are prospecting under 1t. The
future of this strong church never
looked brighter.
