FOR THE THIN AND sCRAwNY.
Samose VIII Make You Plump and
Rosy, Says Miller Drug Co.

II you are getting thin, you are sick,
although you may not know it. If you
are losing weight steadily. there is
something wrong that needs looking
after. If you have always been thin
it doesn't follow that you are sick. but
you may not be healthy. You cannot
be strong If you are thin.
Try then TO be healthy and plump;
it Is not difficult If you know how.
The only way ~ increase the weight
and gain health and flesh is by using
Samose, the standard flesh forming
food and tissue builder. II mingles
with the food you eat and is assimi-
lated so that all the flesh forming and
tissue building elements OF the food
are retained in the system. This ex-
plains the great value of Samose.
Fatness, happiness and health they
all 90 together. How seldom you see
fat person who is not happy. On
the other hand, thin people are un-
happy and nervous. Use Samose and
be well and fat and happy.

Rev. J. N. Brown, Favorably I'M
presses Large Congregations at
Morning and Evening Ser
vices at Trinity.
SERMONS APPROPRIATE
Excellent Successor to Or. J. w. Pot
ter Has Been Found In New
Pastor Of Methodist Episco-
pal Church.

First Impressions count most. One
of the hardest problems life propounds
for a clergyman is what to say to his
new congregation on the initial ap-
pearance of his pastorate. Il he sue
ceeds in reaching" his hearers on
the occasion of his first Sunday SER
vice or Wednesday prayer meeting,
he has accomplished all.
Rev. ]. NJ. Brown, the new minister
of the Trinity M. r. church, has made
good" in every sense of the word with
his people" and those whose privil-
eye 1t was to hear him morning or
evening or at both services yesterday,
expressed their opinions candidly,
that Dr. Brown is logically suited to
occupy the pulpit made vacant by the
leaving of Rev. j. W. Potter.
A great difficulty confronts any min
lister when the matter of choosing the
text and context of his first sermons
to a new lay are at hand. Thus it
was the sermon Of diplomat, that
Mr.. Brown preached at the Sunday
morning service and again second
sermon In the evening.
The speaker who talks for Christ
must remain in the shadow of the
cross. that his words, not himself.
may be the more important and that
the minister may be forgotten during
his delivery.
Full congregations attended the
morning and evening worship hours
at Trinity church. and both themes,
adopted by the new pastor for the
opening of his work here, were well
suited for the first occasion.
DR.. Brown is a man who in speak
Ing, backs his words with force that
Is irresistible, yet with an under cur
rent Of beaming brightness that holds
his hearers aloof from the dryness of
a cast and moulded sermon. In that
respect he is greatly like the departed
DR.. Potter, who without his humorous
remark, even in the depth of scrip
tural passage, was not himself.
