Best Medicine
For Dyspepsia
SIX THOUSAND BOTTLES
SOLD IN ONE NEW JERSEY
TOWN LAST YEAR.
II. ]. Dennis & Co. Declare Mon.
ey Back if One Bottle Doesn't
Make Any Stomach Stuff
erer Happy.

At last the way has been found to
combine Pepsin with other corrective
stomach agents so that it will do the
most good in the shortest possible
time.
One dessertspoonful OF this splendid
liquid remedy will cause acute indiges-
ton, gas, heaviness, acidity, belching,
heartburn or any upset condition of
the stomach to vanish in a few min
utes.
But there is more to say about this
remarkable remedy - something that
will interest thousands of respondent
people.
Dare's Mentha Pepsin not only
quickly relieves acute stomach dis
tress, but it conquers stubborn indi-
gestion and puts an end to dizziness,
nervousness, headache, sleep1essness
and dependency which are nearly al
ways caused by chronic disturbance.
Dare's Mentha Pepsin is pleasant to
take, has a delightfully."- refreshing
taste and after it has put your stom-
ach in a clean and healthy condition,
just notice how much better you look
and feel. for besides correcting stom-
ach disorders this supremely good
remedy that H. J. Dennis & Co. and
druggists everywhere guarantee. is a
fine tonic that builds you up and
makes you work with vim, eat with
relish and sleep soundly.

TELEPHONE FIRST USED BY
RAILROAD AT ALTOONA, PA.

The first telephones line put UP for
regular commercial purposes in con-
nection with a railroad was run by
Thomas A. Watson. Bells assistant,
with the help OF Gardiner G. Hubbard,
Bells fa~ther-inlaw, on May 81. 1877,
at Altoona, Pa.
The line was ordered by the Penn
sylvania Railroad and directions were
given to install It at Altoona for the
Superintendent Of thar branch of the
railroad.
This vas the very beginning of the
spread of telephones over the country.
On May IS, Watson had personally put
up the first telephone line in New
York City from the office of Hilbourne
L. Roosevelt. at 40 West 18th Street
to his home.
On Sunday. May Goth, Mr.. Hubbard
and Mr.. Watson Travelled to Altoona,
then a long and fatiguing journey up
the Juniata River, and the next day,
Monday, May Dist, installed the first
telephone there near the Summit of
the Allegheny Mountains.
The line was put up for practical
business purposes and was so used
from the date of its construction.

UPSIDE DOWN

Perhaps this title could be better
phrased in the light of what | am
about to say, if we were to use the
phrase Turning the World back to
its rightful position"
Sin has turned the world upside
down. 1t is literally walking on its
head. 1t is dead at the heart. its
soul is doomed, its society is cursed,
its Fellowship is selfish really it is
upside down. We have become aecus-
toned to its present position.
Therefore, when we say turning
the world upside down. we are
talking about the effect that Chris
tianity is going to have upon pres
ent conditions. If Christians were
living as true, earnest stewards
ought to live they would be counted
fanatical and dangerous, just as
Paul and Silas were 50 considered.
If ministers were preaching the
pure, old time religious gospel. they
would bring on antagonisms, pro-
duce social earthquakes, and arouse
h violence of the mob. The Jews
said of Paul and Silas, "These men
have turned the world upside
down"
The time has come to preach the
gospel so forcefully and fearlessly
that that viii be re-enacted.
If we can attack the pagan system
Of wealth and bring the money
changers under the lash of true
Christianity. you will see the great
est upheayal the world has Y e
witnessed. The god of money. the
love of money, the pagan, indescrib-
ably pagan financial appetite of TO-
day is the curse of America and
the shame of civilization.
This country is dancing around
the golden calf. and the pagan man
ipulators of the money system of
this country are as dead as any
pagan corpse the world has ever
seen. They do not admit the doc
trine of Christian stewardship: they
deny the authority of God to de-
mand an accounting: they refuse
to bring their income into the house
of God. where 1t belongs. The Cos
pei, and only the gospel. can turn
the world right-side up and put it
where it ought to be.

A Song For THANKSGIVING

Sweet land of Liberty, how fitting is this hour Of thanks
giving for all the blessings we enjoy. How inspiring is the
vision of your bounty under government based upon equality
and temperate consideration of human rights. There is some
thing deeper in the day than selfshly to review those better
ments that personally have blessed us through the year. Rather
should our thanks go forth to Him for planting IN American
hearts those principles of government which ensure our happi-
ness and contentment.
We will be poor indeed if we offer only formal LID service
of appreciation yet fail firmly to resolve to protect to the last
ounce OF our power our sacred heritage of freedom. Yes, at
this Thanksgiving time, let each t4roat shout in clarion tones:
From every mountainside let freedom ring" and with that
glorious song of inspiration let each man grid his loins to resist
the insidious attacks that constantly wage war to undermine the
principles of our constitution.
Our thanks for bounteous crops will be as tinkling cymbals
II each Of US is not a constant Waterman at the tower ready
tilhr OF the soil. Our praise for our prosperity will be but as
Liable II we do not resist the insidious and grasping flank
assaults on equal opportunity.
Americans will give their greatest thanks in action. Let US
express our thanks in intelligent interest in the management of
our country. The government is not a thing apart. It is not a
private enterprise. 1t does not belong to officials elected or
appointed. 1t IS the expression of the peoples will. As founded
It is the only successful system of government in the world.
Let us give thanks a thousandfold for its existence, but let this
thanks be buttressed by a determination to protect it-Sweet
Land of Liberty.
