Evangelist to Tell How
 Sick May Be Healed

'How the sick may be healed and how sinners may be forgiven" will be made equally plain through the preaching of Evangelist F. F. Bos- worth, who will conduct campaign at the Casino on State street, com meetings Will continue nightly except Saturdays, for a period of four weeks, under the auspices of the Berean Me mortal and the Peoples Indep.) Presb yterian church
 Statements issued by the Bosworths indicate that this evangelist bases his teachings on several Bible texts. Rev. Psalms 103:3; ''Who forgiveth thine iniquitfes; who healeth all thy dis cases" It is understood that through out the entire campaign prayers for the sick will be offered at the close of every service and special services for the sick will be held twice a week. Both the Bosworths disclain what they say, making it plain that they are in no sense "healers," and exercise no healing powers, but sim ply pray for and with those who are afflicted.
 large musical program is being arranged for these meetings. This program includes many instrumental Bosworth brothers, both of whom are accomplished musicians. Rev. F. F. Bosworth was for many years a band leader and his band at one time gave 20 consecutive concerts at Madison Square Garden in New York. B. B. Bosworth, the brother, is a soIoist and tronbonist. He is now organ render special music at every ser vice.
