RUGGLEs CAMP
(By J. H. RICHARDSON.)

Ruggles Campgrounds, August 8.
After an all-night rain this last Sun
day morning dawned most unfavor-
ably The Board of Directors felt
rather blue over the outlook. And the
weather has been threatening all day
with occasional showers. But we have
had almost an average last-Sunday
crowd, We have come to believe that
folks are coming here rain or shine.
Despite the rain the grounds soon got
in good shape and have been very nice
all day. The crowd has been a very
orderly one. The tabernacle has been
filled at every service, and at this af-
ternoon's service when the children
sang the tabernacle was filled to over
flowing and great crowds standing
round the outside.
After hearing DR.. Miller preach we
are fully persuaded that the preaching
this year, taken all in all, has been the
best we have ever had. The whole pro-
gram of the campmeeting has been Of
higher order than usual.
The day began with the usual early
prayer service led by Mr.. John Walsh
Mr.. G. N. Harding led an enthusiastic
praise service. At 1890 DR.. Miller
gave one of the greatest sermons ever
preached ON Ruggles campgrounds.
His audience sat spell-bound with the
power of the message. His subject was
"a Separated Life" the burden Of his
sermon being plea for Christians to
come out entirely from the world and
live wholly for God, Mrs. Miller, wife
of the preacher sang a beautiful and
touch solo before the sermon.
For the afternoon service DR.. Jolly
was the preacher 1t is needless to say
that we had a fine sermon-always do
when DR.. Jolly breaches. The music
was furnished by the children, more
than one hundred of them occupying
places on the platform. And they sang
as beautifully, it seeded, as an angel
choir would sing. Following their pro-
gram of song the apollo" quartet
CHATS what Rev. Harrop' has budded
our male quartet sang two selections,
one being Swing Low, Sweet Chariot"
for which requests had been made
At the closing service this evening
DR.. Miller again preached a sermon
tLat was fitting close to the splendid
series enjoyed during the campmeet-
ing. At the close of the sermon a
touching appeal was made for the liv-
ing of better lives and be ready next
year for better campmeeting even
than the present one has been. Many
testimonies were given as to the good
the meetings. had done and the great
blessings received. During the singing
of God Be With You Till We Meet
again" all came forward for a final
handshake and goodbye The benedc-
ton was then said by DR.. Miller.
The Board of Directors will meet

note that Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege-
