FAREWELL SERMON
OF DR.. ELLIOTT
Quincy Pastor Who Comes to keoku&
breaches His Farewell Last
Sunday.

Quincy Journal, July 1: Dr. Chas.
+. Elliotts discourse yesterday morn
ing was the last that he will deliver
as minister Of the Unitarian church OF
Quincy. In this farewell sermon, DR..
Elliott briefly reviewed his ministry
and the work of the church during
the six and half years that he has
been here; discussed the principles of
Unitarianism; noted the losses the
church had sustained by the deaths Of
some and the removal to other cities
of number Of the prominent mem
bers; spoke of his pleasant associa-
lions with the people Of the Gem
City, with many personal illusions.
DR.. Elliott said that he was not in
sympathy with the older sort of Uni
tarianism, but that he accepted the
position defined by the Western Uni
tartan association, which requires no
declaration of religious belief, bat
only love and pursuit Of the truth as
a qualification for membership. Trde
religion, he says, does not consist o.
/ dogmas, but it is an expression Of
. :
mans relation to the universe aud
manifests itself in character and con
duct, in moral enthusiasm and spirit
Eual aspirations. DR.. Elliott paid a
tribute to Quincy by saying that in
the city he had found many indivisl-
uals and social circles in which are
all the graces of culture and the
ethical spirit, but he thought that The
average intellectual life in Quincy is
not as high as it should be consider
ing the wealth and the material al
vancement Of the city.
The discourse was replete with sim
pie elouuence and pathos and it re-
ceived the closest attention and svl-
IDENTITY made marked impression on
those who heard 1t.

delegate from Iowa voting for Lewis
because, he explained later he liked
the color of Hams whiskers, and be-
cause all dark horses elected in his
tory had some sort of weak limitations
of Lewis beard. Lewis face got as
pink as his whiskers when the vote
was cast for him. and raising an ele-
gantly jeweled hand, he covered his
bushes.
When Lewis is in the chair, some.
body usually starts disturbance just
to hear the Chicagoan's modulated
tones strike on the air: Let Ger
geant-at-arms olear the aisles-let

one hand delicately brushing the air.
They are counting Lewis costumes
now. Already he has changed his
suit at least twice daily, and so far
as anyone can remember he hasn't
yet worn suit the second time The
same applies to vests and neck ties.
Chairman James is the very anti
thesis of Lewis. He hasn't any frills,
he Is brobidiginian in simplicity.
He has already busted a square of oak
two inches thick banging with his
gavel His voice is hoarse. To get
"Ollie" worked up SO that he will
wave that mastadonian hand, as big
as battercake, before convention
time, and hoarsely rumble for order,

A GOOD COLOR.
The Badge Of Health in
Cheeks and Lips.

The fact that one woman is bright
eyed, rosy checked, strong and cheerful,
while another is pale, weak and de-
pressed is due more often than other
wise to the condition of the blood. The
way to remedy this condition is TO build
up the blood and for this purpose there
is no better tonic than DR.. Williams
Pink Pills. They are for both men and
women but they benefit the latter in
special way.
Ii your daughter is languid, has a
pale, sallow complexion, is short Of
breath, especially on going upstairs,
has palpitation OF the heart, tendency
to faint and a poor appetite, she suf-
fers from lack of blood. Mistakes or
delay in the treatment may result in
such serious impairment Of her health
that she will be weak and sickly during
the rest of her life. The tonic must be
safe and harmless as well as effective.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills for Pale Peo-
pie possess the qualities. They are
recommended by one who has used
them as follows:
Miss Jessie Johns, OF Gladstone, Ore, !,
was cured by Dr. Williams Pink Pills
after suffering year and half. She
says:
Wisconsin, / was greatly run down in
health. / did not seem able to get back
my strength but was weak all over. /
was thin, pale and nervous. wasn't
able to do much of anything and had to
give m teachinp school.
II was treated by three or four doc
tors and they said they were afraid /
was going into consumption. They did
not help me and | finally gave up their
treatment to try DIR. Williams Pink
& Pills. The pills helped me from the
start and / kept on with them until
felt entirely we'll. regained my
strength and my health has been quite
good since then.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills are guaran-
teed by the manufacturers to contain
no opiate, narcotic or anything that
could injure the most delicate system

day the Americans abandoned their
