TOO FEW PEOPLE
ATTEND CHURCH
Rev. A. F. Ernst Analyses the
Situation in His Sunday
Morning Sermon.
TOO MANY SEEK EXCUSES

Why don't more people go to
church, Rev. A. F. Ernst, pastor
of Lowe Avenue Presbyterian church,
asked and answered this question in
his sermon Sunday morning.
Probably 800 church services are
held in Omaha every Sunday, and |
doubt il one person in every ten IN
Omaha attends any church service"
he said. This applies equally to
other cities. In Europe it was esti-
mated before the war that only one
person in every 1870 went to church.
Especially are the evening serv-
ices neglected. In New York City
some time ago it was found that even
in the great churches with many
members there were only thirty, forty
or fifty attendants at evening services,
in spite of the fact that ministers
were able and music extraordinary.
Church Not a Failure.
This does not mean that the
church is failure. Far from it. The
church never had finer equipment,
better organization, more able min
listers than il has today, and be-
lieve more people are attending
church today than ever before. Espe-
cially noticeable is the increased in
terest among men. The fact re-
mains that the majority of the peo-
pie do not attend.
1.-THE great variety OF amusemcnts
which are open on Sunday is, per-
haps, partly responsible for small
church attendance. But the great
reason is that people do not want to
attend They seek excuses for re-
naming away, but do not give good
reasons. The men in the parable who
were invited to the feast excused
themselves by various means. Today
they may excuse themselves by say
ing they have bought an automobile,
they have taken up golf or they are
entertaining company Sunday eve
nings.
To Church to Develop.
MAN needs to develop the spiritual
side of his nature just as he must de-
velop the physical and mental sides.
And the best place to develop the
spiritual is in Gods house. There
are many good men, splendid citizens,
Omaha daily bee., 1916-11-21

who don't go inside church from
one years end to the next. They may
not notice that thew arc stunning their
spiritual natures, but that is what
they are doing.
"A great need of the church today
is greater personal regeneration,
instead of too much sociology and
social service, things all right, but
incidental to Christliness. Men and
women need, also, greater telling of
personal responsibility. We do too
many of our duties by proxy nova
days.
People can't afford to neglect the
church, 1t is the great instillcr OF
the civic conscience. Would you
want to live in community where
there are no churches and no people
who so to church? 1t has been
found that So per cent of all the peo-
pie engaged i'll public charitable work
are church members and the others
are inspired by the church of
Christ"

Kidney Disorder
(By DR.. L. C. Babcock.)

Simple methods are usually the
most effective ones when treating
any disorder of the human system.
The mere drinking cup of hot water
each morning, plenty of pure water
all day, and little Anuric before
every meal has been found the most
effective means of overcoming kid
ney trouble. Death would occur if
the kidneys did not work day and
night in separating poisons and uric
acid from the blood. ...
The danger signals are backache,
depressions, aches, pains, heaviness,
drowsiness, irritability, headaches,
chilliness, rheumatic twinges, swollen
joints, govt.
1t is such a simple matter to step
into your favorite drug store and OBJ
tain Anuric, which was first discover
ed by DR.. Pierce, of the Surgical In
stitute, Buffalo, N. Y. Every druggist
dispenses it.
All people in America and especial
ly those who are past middle age are
prone to eat too much meat, and in
consequence deposit uric acid (uratic
salts) in their tissues and joints. They
often suffer from twinges of rheu-
matism or lumbago, sometimes from
govt, swollen hands or feet. Such
people are not always able to exercise
sufficiently in the outdoor air in
order to sweat freely and excrete i'm
purities through the skin. Anuric will
overcome such conditions as rheuma-
tism, dropsical swellings, cold ex-
tremities, scalding and burning urine
and sleeplessness due to constant
need of getting out of bed at night,
by carrying off the uric acid poison.

HAPPENINGS IN
THE MAGIC CITY
RevH r. L. Wheeler Discusses
Prospects of His congrega-
ton Getting to Heaven.
MAYOR ANNOUNCES CLERK

What sort of people will get to
Heaven and what sort won't, was in
substance the subject of DR.. R. L.
Wheeler's sermon Sunday morning
at the Wheeler Memorial church.
DR.. Wheeler denounced infdelity
of church members today referring
to the Apostle Paul, who after con-
version, really 'practiced what he
preached"
II have seen many of you men,
the pastor said, leave the grave of
your wife, mother or children with
tears in your eyes, realizing the great
wrongs of the world and your own
guilt, make promises to live better
life, and yet you never have. All of
you fall into the same practice doing
aeither what the Savior had preached
nor improving on your former con-
duct. The fact of the matter is that
this world has become so ridden by
commercialism, the love for money,
that the church stands in uncertain
position
Il am myself a thousand leagues
from the gates of Heaven if the
distance could be estimated. Yet we
ministers are builders on the wall.
We build and build, hope and hope
until our hearts are worn to nothing.
The inaction of unbelief has made our
problem harder yet ever we are build
ers on the WALL And so you must be.
God Almighty gave the peoples of
the earth the world. They are his
gift. He created them We only make
the things we have. It is only by
sin that a few come to have much
and the many to have little. So l
say unto you forget your>thought of
commercialism and come unto Christ
for he can give you rest
Learn to Blow Glass.
Glass blowing is one of the Unique

Of Mayor Dahlman to be clerk of the
South Side police court in the place
of Jerry Fitzgerald, who is now
county assessor-elect. The mayor
made a proposition to Wheeler before
election that if Jerry was elected he
could have the place if he wanted it.
Perry lost no time in accepting. He

Says Indigestion comes from an
excess Of hydrcchloric
- 5a4 acid. .s =s's'S 80

A well-known authority states that
stomach trouble and indigestion is near
ly always due to acidity-acid stomach
and not, as most folks believe, from
a lack Of digestive juices. He states
that an excess of hydrochloric acid in
the stomach rctards digestion and starts
food fermentation, then our meals sour
like garbage in "a can, forming acrid
fluids and gases which initiate the
stomach, like toy balloon. We then
get that heavy, lnmpy feeling in the
chest, we eructate sour. food, bclch gas,
or have heartburn, f1atulence, water
bTasll, or nausea. .. 3: .,
F. He tells us to lay aside all digestive
aids and instead, get from any pharmacy
four ounces Of Jad Salts and take a
tablespoonful in a glass of water before
breakfast while it lis effervescing, and
furthermore, to continue this for one
week. While relief follows the first
dose, it is important to neutralize the
acidity, remove the gas-rnaking mass,
start the liver, stimulate the kidneys
and thus. promote a. free flow of pure
digestive juices. sts =.
Jad Salts is inexpensive and is made
from the acid Of grapes and lemon
Juice, combined wifi, lithia and Sodium
phosphate. This harmless salts is used
by thousands Of people for stomach
trouble with cxcellsRt results.

WOMEN TO GET

Winnipeg, Man., Jan 12.-Manitoba
women will be granted the right to
sit in parliament Premier Norris
has so promised and the cabinet, to
a man, supports him. What the
Liberal members of the legislature
will do when the bill reaches them
is an open question. but so far as the
Norris government is concerned. 1t
is solemnly pledged to full equality.
The pledge was obtained by the
women when they waited upon Pre-
mier Norris and his cabinet They
represented the Manitoba Political
Equality league, and they say Pre-
mier Norris agreement to support
the full equality bill was very clear
and distinct.
Every member of the cabinet sub
scribed his oral assent that full
equality with men should be accord
ed in the new suffrage bill which will
be drawn up and brought in at the
current session of the legislature
Some time ago the women of the
province presented a petition to the
Norris cabinet, asking that suffrage
be granted, and it was such a tre-
mendous petition that the cabinet at
once assented. Until the last few
days, however, it had been supposed
that the granting of the vote cou-
pied with it the right to hold pro-
vincial office. Lately, it was learned

ing the expense Of a special primary
election n'April, is occupying the at
tention of many republicans Of the
State.
Rank and File Favor It.
Some opposition has developed to
the plan OF agreeing upon list Of
delegates so they can be elected at
the regular primary election on June
6, and their credentials wired to Chi
cago in time for. the delegates agreed
upon to take their seats, hut so far
as general sentiment can be gagged
by the expressions of newspapers
printed in different localities, the
great majority of republicans will be
satisfied to have the delegation to the
national convention selected in this
way without a special primary cleo
ton being called. <s. ~
For cummins If;He Has a Chance.
So far as can be ascertained there
is not much opposition among repub-
lican: leaders to the delegation sup
porting the candidacy of Senator A.

the office OF president ii it develops
by the time the national convention is
held that the Iowa man stands reas-

Those opposing the holding of
special primary election do SO entire
ly on account Of the cost, which is es-
timated may run as high as $4,000.
1t is feared that If this expense is in
Cured the opposition will strive to
make campaign material of it. Again,
the republican leaders who oppose
the special primary wish to save the
taxpayers the sum which special
primary would cost. The special pri-
mary would have to be called solely
for the purpose of electing delegates
to the republican and democratic ma
tional conventions, and there would
be no escpae from holding the reg
ular primary election in June, thus
making two primary elections in
