Nearly everyone who uses g. s. s. for the

untold suffering as the result Of mere
pimple or small blood rising. host of
people did not realize, until too late. what
may result from a slight skin abrasion.
But they recovered II they used S. 5. y.
and in almost every village and hamlet,
every crossroad and away back OF the road
is someone who will tell you how S. s. s.,
the famous blood purifier, restored his
health.
1t Is a most interesting fact that this
remarkable vegetable medicine oyerhauls
the blood in a manner that excites curious
minds.
But it acts In accordance with accepted
physiological laws and yet its effect is
almost beyond comprehension to those who
are welded to such drugs as mercury. cal
omel, arsenic, iodde of potash, copper and
other baneful influences which all the world
bears silent testimony to their destructive
tendencies.
s. s. S. Is indeed a natures tribute TO
what we need and 1t Is worthy OF note that
in almost any drug store throughout the
country you will find 1t regularly In stock.

among all the delegates to the one hum
dred and thrty-first annual Baltimore
conference of the Methodist Episcopal
Church. South, today over the speeches
of President Wilson and Secretary
of the Navy Daniels. who dropped
,in at last nights session for hurried
visits, during which the Chief Execu-
tive took occasion to declare that
churches were the stablizers of the ma
ton, and that he had little fear of the
effect Of those in the country today
who are trying to rock the boat OF
national policies"
The President was introduced by
Bishop Gambler who declared that there
are 100000 Southern Methodists who
are praying that the nations President
be given proper guidance.
President Wilson said:

This is council of peace. not to

better ministers are needed not only In
the Methodist Church.. but in other de-
nominations. We must meet the sneer-
ing impression OF the Goddess that a
minister Is merely a man of animated
smile and a white cravat who goes
about kissing babies and shaking hands
with the brothers and sisters"
DR. Bennett spoke at length OF the
advantages offered by the Gambler
School of Theology.
The Rev. James Cannon, president Of
the Anti-Saloon League Of Virginia,
by the prohibition!sts last year when
that state went dry" He predicted
that the District of Columbia would
soon become dry" territory, saying
the prohibition workers who managed
the campaign here last session had as
surances from Senators and Congress
men that when the question comes to a
vote, probably at the approaching ses-
sion. the prohib!tionists will win.
Money Poured Into Virginia.
DIR. Cannon charged that the organ

into Virginia last year. and 1t was the

HOW FRENCH PEOPLE
CURE STOMACH TROUBLE

A household remedy of the French
peasantry. consisting OF pure vegetable
oil. and said to possess wonderful merit
in the treatment of stomach. liver and
intestinal troubles, has been introduced
in this country by George II. Mayr, who
for twenty years has been one of the
leading downtown druggists of Chicago
and who himself was cured by its use
So quick and effective is it's action that
a single dose is usually enough to bring
pronounced relief in the most stubborn
cases, and many people who have tried
1t declare they never heard of anything
to produce such remarkable results in
so short a time. 1t is known as Mayr's
Wonderful Remedy and can now be had
at all leading drug stores. 1t is sold
with the positive understanding that
your money will be refunded without
question or quibble If ONE bottle fails

URGES MORE AND
BETTER PREACHERS
Rev. DR.. Bennett, of Atlanta,
Makes Plea Before BaIti-
more Methodist Conference.

With an admonition that the church
must have ''more and better preachers"
to Offset the impression OF Goddess critics
that a minister "is just n man with an
animated smile and white cravat, who
goes around kissing babies and shaking
hands with the brothers and sisters
the Rev. DR.. r. II. Bennett, of Atlanta,
addressed the business session of the
Fist session of the Baltimore annual
conference NJ. L. Church South here to-
day.
The conference transacted a great
sion. and also heard addresses from
several divines. DR.. Bennett, however,
was especially emphatic i'm his regrets
that not enough Methodist ministers
have theological training. All denomi-
nations. he said are in need of more
and better preachers. although, he as
serted. this did not mean there are not
able and good men in the ministry.

hopes that the end OF the present war may find
