sufficient to give the honest inquirer

magnitude OF this movement.

should be said that Baptists do not
oppose this movement nor fight IT,

following paragraph: 4. THE facts

ment is far from being true. Then In
paragraph II is said Then, too
the whole thing goes in the direction
OF Romanism. or at least hierarchy
The best refutation OF this CHROME
Gus statement is the fact that the
Roman Church is having nothing 10

officially stated that. They fear II
as they do no other movement over

THE INTERCHURCH
WORLD MOVEMENT

Some serious mistakes relative Ia
same, reviewed and corrected.
In the Signal Of March 18th. there
appears. on the first page, an article
under the caption "Baptists and the
Interchurch World Movement"
In the first paragraph of this ar
ticle. the following statement Is
made "In this article nothing Is
said against the carrying out of the
convictions OF any other people, but
only statement setting forth the
position OF Baptists." II this declara-
ion had been evenly loosely adhered
to through the remaining part OF the
article. there would be no. occasion
for this article. But, inconsistent as
IL Is. in the very next paragraph
within the space of three lines of the
statement quoted above; the writer
proceeds to criticise. in an unfriendly
manner. the originators, motives and
work OF The Interchurch World Move
ment. lie says. This Movement is a
movement OF man. originated with a
few men in the city OF New York
who have tried several times before
to start something wonderful. but
every thing thus started has come
10 naught. The movement Is led by
DIR. John n. Mott" The writer then
proceeds to criticise Mr.. Mott. "a
course which think wholly unjusti-
fable: but II Is not my purpose to
discuss the character or Mistakes oil

First OF all. may say that, this
movement Ia not led by Mr.. Mott.
neither was II originally promoted
either by him or with a few men In
the city OF New York. The real spirit
and principle of this movement orig
mated with the missionaries OF our
various denominations on the foreign
fields. In this country. however,
while the principle was developing
simultaneously In several quarters)

Brings Back Its Beautiful
Lustre at Once

Gray hair, however handsome, de-
notes advancing age. We all know
the advantages of youthful appear
ance. Your hair is your charm. It
makes or mars the face. When it
fades, turns gray and looks streaked,
just few applications '6 Sage Tea
and Sulphur enhances its appearance
a hundred-fold.
Don't stay gray! Look young!
Either prepare the recipe at home or
get from any drug store bottle Of
"Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound" which is merely the old-time
recipe improved by the addition Of
other ingredients. Thousands of
folks recommend this ready-to-use
preparation, because it darkens the
hair beautifully, besides, no one can
possibly tell, as it darkens SO natur-
ally and evenly. You moisten a
sponge or soft brush with it., drawing
this through the hair, taking one
small strand at time. By morning
the gray hair disappears; after an
other application or two, its natural
color is restored and it becomes thick,
glossy and 1ustrous, and you appear
years younger.

A cable from the office of the Me-
thodist Board of Temperance in San,
tiago, Chile, says that the national
Council Of Argentina Women has
been petitioning the Congress in fa-
vor of prohibition, and that while the
news dispatches from America have
been almost uniformly wet in their
implications Argentinians are so in
terested that official efforts are be-
ing made to arrive at the facts. Edu-
cational leaders in Argentina are de-
handing compulsory temperance in"

A law just passed in Uruguay calls
upon the president to see to it that
there shall be lectures in public
schools on the harmfullness of use
of alcohol. The law places certain
restrictions on the sale of liquor,
most important of which is the pro-
hibition Of sale of alcoholic bever-
ages to women and children.
