frail tools against the conviction that
arises out Of the beauty Of their melody.
The churches appreciate this. uncon-

Music and the Eev. Billy Sunday.
Nobody better appreciates the part
that music plays in religion than thr
popular Rev. Billy Sunday. He woulc
no sooner think OF entering a city which
to his mind is in need Of salvation with
out a carefully trained choir. than he
would for moment karhor the thought
that all who hit TIE Sawdust trail under

haven Of the blessed. Only with him
the tenor OF the music is not conduc'H"
to rest and peace. Knowing the power
! Of the warhled note he trains his fellow
workers in the singing Of those songs
which will most rouse the spirit To a
state of appreciation of what the future
has in store. |: is the singing OF music
that urges on 10 renewed efforts in gain

the reported Socialist control can be

will be able to bring these forces again
under his power is something which
the state department is eagerly await
ing later dispatches to learn. Ann
bassador Francis messages all came
together. They were dated November
Is. IL and 8, and paralleled reports Of
the safety of Americans in Petrograd
and Moscow and of the deaths of hun
dreds in the fighting, including many
women. That sent on November IL

office on the border.

In the fact that not a single message
concerning kerensky has been allow

Rolshesiki still have full control of
the telephones and teiegraphs around
Petrograd and Moscow and nothing
would be allowed to come out that
would give any hint that Kerensky
had not been completely overthrown.
The state department has been send
ing daily cables to the ambassador,
but seemingly, from the replies re-

that the last message he received
from Washington reached him on No
vember 8. Regarding the status of
the supposed Socialist regime. a high
official said undoubtedly there would
have to be some communication be-
tween the new Russia and this gov
eminent but that 1t had been made
quite apparent that this government
would not recognize the Socialist rule.
Moreover. the thousands of persons
who have deserted the United States

not be allowed to return to this coun-
try. They went away, the greater part
OF them, without obtaining PASSPORTS

method of curing the nervous

DR.. Ernst Bayer, head Of

of electrical treatment. which
1t lis claimed. often effects q
complete cure In a few days,
and is almost invariably ef-
fective within a period of
three weeks. The news
papers describe his method
as follows:
by the application OF q
gentle electric current, which
causes no pain whatever, good
results have been obtained In
a few minutes or. at the long

course of treatment Is requir-
