become weak from the overwork; they
get sluggish; the eliminative tissues clog
and thus the waste is retained IN the
blood to poison the entire system.
When your kidneys ache and feel like

Harrisburg telegraph. [volume] (Harrisburg, Pa.) 1879-1948, 1916-12-02

Next Monday afternoon and evening
will mark an epoch in the history of
the City Rescue Mission, when George
Long, superintendent and founder of
the lnasmuch Mission of Philadelphia,
and his wife will speak at the second
anniversary of the organization of the
mission
The mission will observe this event
with two big mass meetings, one in the
afternoon at o'clock in the Zion
Lutheran Church for women only and
one for the general public in the even
ing in the auditorium of the Technical
high school,
The afternoon meeting for women
will be in charge of Mrs. Long and
Mrs. Fulton. assistant superintendent
OF the City Rescue Mission. Mrs. Long
will address the women on the subject
of Some Things a Woman Ought to
Know and Mrs. Fulton will have
charge of the singing.
AT the evening meeting at o'clock
in the Technical high school audi
torium George Long will give to the
people of Harrisburg some facts as to
his past history, leading up to his con-
version, and the remarkable success
he has had in mission work since that
time.
Mr.. Long was at one time pam
handler and dope fiend in the streets
of Harrisburg and frequented the old
Lafayette Mission in State street, not
to receive spiritual benefits, but simply
for "hand-out." When in Roches-
ter, N. Y, he was so worthless that
he became public nuisance and the
authorities "drummed" him out of
town. but while recently visiting that
city he was made the lion of q great
municipal reception held in his honor.
After his wonderful conversion, start
ing with a capital of 81 cents, he
founded the Inasmuch Mission of
Philadelphia, which after three years
service represented 100000 mission
investment.
The Philadelphia Evening Telegraph
recently made the following comment
on his work at the time of the cele-
bration of the fifth anniversary of the
mission:
George Long is fair target for a
whole city's congratulations on the oc-
casion of this the fifth anniversary of
his founding of the Inasmuch Mission,
of which he is and has been since its
inception the superintendent. But
George does not want congratulations.
The work that he is doing is so in
tinitely greater than any individual
that it rightly overshadows the men
engaged in carrying it out, and he is
big enough to see and appreciate this
clearly.
For it is a wonderful thing, this
reclamation work, this diving down
into the human substratum and fishing
up living beings so encrusted with
drink and drugs and crime as to lose
almost all human semblance. and then
washing and nursing them back to the
birthright they were letting slip from
them-if not actually throwing away
and George Long knows it is won
derful, but he doesn't think that his
part in 1t is any more wonderful than
that of leather rein because it guides
horse in the hands of a skillful
driver. He just gives all the credit to
the God he is serving and goes right
ahead with the days work, offering a
