A Friend Worth Knowing

We make many acquaintances, some
OF which develop into friendship, but
not all prove themselves true friends.
1t is just as essential that we have a
reliable friend in the form Of medi-
cine as personal friend, so that when
we are afflicted with various ailments
we can have something we can abso-
lutely depend upon.
The next time you have any stomach,
liver or kidney trouble, apd you are
not already acquainted with the won
derful merits of SEVEN BARKS, ma
lures remedy of roots and herbs, we
urge you to give it trial, and we will
predict that it will become one of your
most valuable friends from medical
standpoint.
For nearly half century SEVEN
BARKS has been valuable and timely
friend to all sufferers of stomach and
liver disorders. A trial will quickly
prove its wonder efficiency, and after
that you will never be without it and
gladly recommend it to ysur friends.
Doctors bills these days run into
money fast, and can often be saved if

Popularity of Dyspepsia in These Days
of High Prices.

Consider now that jolly good fellow
the dyspeptic. Time was when he was
about as welcome at a dinner party as

the best bet on the invitation list Any
man with stomach that demands
careful eating should preserve the dis
order, should encourage each little ache
Dyspepsia is the one sure road to pop
ularity.
In these times of short food and
long prices the dyspeptic is the ideal
dinner guest. Any host will welcome
him with open arms and cup of hot
water What man can but feel kindly
toward one who waves aside tenderloin
steak, French-fried potatoes and little
peas, to ask for a cracker?
Poor bankers who crave company
but cannot afford to put on a spread
for healthy friends, will find solace in

For the purpose OF seslringrecognition
in practical way of then services rem
dered in the great war, former soldiers
and sailors Of Wilmington are organizing
what is to be known as the Ex-Service
Mems Voters Club.
The direct object of the organization
is to secure legislation for land and meas

orwholly incapacitated while serving under
the flag. The movement is to be strictly
non-partisan. Those sponsoring the move
ment say that it has no connection with

fault To be found with the board, and in
fact one Of the real Cruises of the lack Of
interest on the part Of influential alumni
of the college for years, is the self per-
pctuating feature Of the board, which has
for years made it sort Of n closc corpora-
ton, with very little recognition being
granted the alumni. II in believed that the
alumni Of the college will make strcnu-
ous demand for change in the method Of
selecting the members Of the board, IN
order that more progressive spirit may
be injected into the management, and IN
order also that the alumni OF the college
may be brought into closer contact with
the real interests Of the school. Former

of n protest that they were trcspassing on
another's preserves. Think of it, legal
technicality, an evasion of the truth,
offered as an excuse by those setting out TO
worship Almighty God, and that too,
priests of the church and guardians OF the
law"
Referring to the character of the
services engaged in, and the auspices under
which they were conducted, DIR. Richey
says ''the gravesL of all questions !. g.,
that of keeping the vows taken ut ordlna-
tion to the priesthood, is raised. The
services engaged in, and which the parish
toner's of the three parishes were urged to
support, We're not special services OF this
church, but what are called union services,
engineered, however, by ministers OF the
Presbyterian body and whose form of
worship, so far as there was any, was of
their devising.
"Now let il be noted that there is here
no simple matter of individual Chris
tians just meeting together to pray. These
services were public acts of worship of
other ordering than that of the church to
which the rcctors and people of the
parishes involved belong. The avowed
object of these services was united
worship which should eliminate any
trace of concern for an order of worship,
which harked back to the thought of its
connection with any definite and distinct
religious organization. In other words
there was deliberate intention to deny
the connection between worship and faith
and order. Priests of the church and their
people were to stand before God and wor-
ship Him while suppressing the truth as
to the way of approach TO Him. The ethics
of clerical subscription is an old theme, but
generally discussed with reference to
intellectual Interpretation of the creeds
rather than worship, and much befogged
by dragging philosophy into religion.
"The matter, however, of testing ones
ordination vows as a scrap of paper is, or
ought to be discedited in these days and
yet it seems that there is a great tempta-
tion to do so, when the dazzling bauble of
popularity is dangled before mems eyes,
