OBSERVATIONS.

Des MOines, April ID, 1919.
Dear Editor Bystandcr:
now find time to make another re.
port from the Western Field.
While my stay at home 1 visited my
home church, Corinthian Baptist. The
church is progressing nicely, both spir-
itnally and financially. This was not a
regular visit, but the pastor would have
me. make few brief remarks respect
ing the work, which / did. An after
collection OF $50 was given. Will
make my official visit later, when this
church will be among the leading ones
Of The Western Convention
MY next visit was MT. Zion and
Tabernacle Baptist churches, Buxton
These churches have always been loyal
to the demands of the Baptist, whoever

the representative be. Ny visit 10
these church was during big rain and
those who know this place realize what
it Is to get out after rain. Mt. Zion
is now without q pastor, her pastor,
Rev. F. b. Woodard, resigning after 10
years and 5 months OF faithful service.
He has accepted the call to Mt. Zion.
Cedar Rapids. This is one of our best
churches in the state. This church has
had only two pastors in eighteen years,
both resigning. The Tabernacle Baptist
church has always had q struggle until
since il called Rev. E. G. Boiling. The
church is progressing both spiritually
and financially.
My next was at Clinton, Iowa. The
Second Baptist church is going nicely,
having recently called Rev. VIM Bates
of Quincy, Ill, as pastor. This was the
first time Of meeting him since have
been field secretary, but he spared NO
pains to make it pleasant while in his
city. We welcome such Baptists in our
state. Wednesday morning found my
self ienroute to Davenport, where /
spoke at Third Baptist church that
evening on t.Christian Service. = The
Rev. f. X. Nichols, the pastor, is one
Of those men who tries to make things
pleasant for a representative. Here the
pastor has had the fight of his life. 1t
seems that because the officers and pas
tor uncovered some dishonesty in hand
ling the finances, the fight was waged
against the pastor, though it seems that
the church is with him. The collection
this year is away ahead Of last.
Leaving this point found myself in
Sioux City, Iowa. Here Rev. j. w.
Crushon is pastoring. This being a
rainy night, not over twelve persons
were out, though the collection was ten
dollars Had it not rained Sioux City
would have gone over the top. The
next night visited the new church, re-
Gently organized. This was another
raipy point. Collection $500.
Thursday morning left for Yankton,
s. d. Here / was met by Rev Hery-
ford, the pastor. / spoke that night to
about two dozen people. AS most OF
them live in the country word did not
reach them. I must say they are loyal
Baptists and willing to give aid TO the
cause. Collection $500. I left Yank-
ton Friday for Ciarinda, Iowa.
On the first Sunday / found myself
worshipping with the Second Baptist
church, clarinda, Rev. J. II. Reynolds
of Des Moines, Iowa, pastor. He is one
of the young preachers of this state
and promises TO be strong preacher.
Here we spoke afternoon to splendid
audience. My lecture seemed to hit the
spot here as everywhere. This is al
most female church, only one male
member belonging to the church and he
is chairman Of the deacon board. This
is the first church / ever saw whose Off
GERS are women, deacons and trustees.
The collection here was $4,000.
On Monday stopped off at Bedford.
This is small church, though it has
been the most loyal chruch in onr state.
For three or four years this little Sun
day school took the banner. Ny next
report will be from Illinois or Ohio.

Fever sores and old chronic sores
should not be healed entirely, but should
be kept in healthy condition. This can
be done by applying Chamberlain s
Salve. This salve has no superior for
this purpose. 1t is also most excellent
for chapped hands, sore ipples, burns
and diseases of the skin.

Don't You Forget Il.

Bear in mind that Chamberlain s
Tablets not only move the bowels but
improve the appetite and strengthen the
digestion. They contain no pepsin or
other digestive ferment but strengthen
she stomach and enable it to perform it's
functions naturally.

who had heard of her remarkable
recovery, called at her residence,

Since l have gotten we'll" con-
tinued Mrs. Cotton, my neighbors
tell me they used to expect every
morning 10 hear that I had passed
away Ny health had been failing
me for seven years. I had no ap-
petite and what little 1 did eat
would sour on my stomach, causing
nausea and intense suffering. 1 also
suffered. like l believe thousands of
other women are, from going
through that period in life that
taxes a woman's strength almost be-
yond endurance. 1 was unable 10
do any work and would get so dis
couraged at times that l would al
most give up in despair. I was very
dizzy and so nervous the least noise
would nearly drive me distracted,
and while 1 spent hundreds OF dol
lars trying TO get relief nothing help
me. Ny back and head ached all
the time and no one knows how ter
rible my suffering was. because I
just can't fully describe il. No one
thought l would get we'll and I had
about lost all hope myself
But here I am. after taking eight
bottles Of Tanlac. able 10 do all my
housework and everybody who knew
how bad OF I was is surprised at
my wonderful recovery. Ny son.
who had taken Tanlac. wrote me
from Omaha, Nebraska. begging me
TO try it, Well. il commenced help
ing me almost at once and by the
time I had finished my second bottle
I noticed a great Improvement. Ny
appetite got better. I was less ner-
vous and the pains in my back and
head did not trouble me so much.
7 can eat anything I want now. ev-
/ ervthing agrees with me perfectly,
and I have gained ten pounds in
weight. I can sleep eight or nine
hours every night and can say that
my health is just splendid. and my
neighbors come 70 see me and go
away praising Tanlac. Will al
ways praise 1t for what il has done
I for me and never expect TO be with
out it"
Tanlac is sold in South Bend by

The vast distances separating the nat

support 100000 animals
The value Of reindeer, introduced

OF the Alaskan reindeer. IL is proposed
by breeders that the animal imported

The development Of the industry on a

At present, although reindeer supply
a small local demand. there is no big
market for meat and hides. Incentive
and progress in consequence Is but
slight. Development of the market In
the United States can only come
through the government or by the big
packer concerns which may attempt 10
