evinced regarding ratio and proportion as
applied to the dissemination Of the Christian
doctrines. 1t seems to us that He laid much
stress upon Faith, Hope and CHARITY.
Furthermore, we recall that il is recorded by
St. Matthew, Chapter Is, Verse 20. that
He said: For where two OR three are gath
cred together in my name, there am | in
the midst Of them"
All Of which leads US 10 the conclusion
that school Of religion is no place in which
to define who shall preach His gospel. 1t
is an institution Of training and not Of select
i've draft. The DRAFTING" is done by God,
who will also decide Who's Who and
Why" so far as the preachers calling is
concerned. Let not mob-psychology dom

THE RESULT.

THE ELECTION of Hon. Calvin
Coolidge, of Massachusetts as Pres
JIent and Hon. Charles G. Dawes, OF
Illinois. as Vic@President concludes
one of the most stubbOrnly fought
political contests ever waged in this
country. 1t commits the candidates
to a government Of common sense,
as stated by Mr.. Coolidge and to
common honesty as announced by
Mr.. Davis, for common honesty is
based on common sense and common
sense on common honesty.
The election OF the Republican
ticket came as no surprise to those
who have carefully watched past
events. The Democratic National
ConventionHeft breaches in the ranks

not be repaired within five years

was attempted to appease the fight
ing elements that Hon. John w.
Davis, an ideal American citizen
was nominated. He ranks with the
ablest diplomats of this or any other
country and as statesman, he has
few peers and no superiors.
In naming him, it was necessary
to name a radical from the other side
and Hon. Charles W. Bryan, lead
or of spo,loss character, but a man
of uncertain proclivities when il
came to the recognition of the SO
eialistic and communistic ideas as
advocated by some Of the revolution
arv leaders in this country, who
would undermine and change the
Constitution of the Fathers as handed
down to us. This led practically tc
a cry among Mr.. Davis friends a;
they turned to the Republican ticket
Not that we love John w. Davis
less but we hate Charles w Bryan

that the coutending Democratic clans

This New Treatment
 Never Fails to End Piles

Many sufferers from Piles or Hem orrhoids have become deepondent be- cause they have been led to believe that their case was hopeless and that there was nothing in the world to help them.
 To these people We say, ''Go to your druggist and get an original box of MOAVA SUPPOSITOR1ES. |" One of these inserted into the rectum according to directions will be found to give immediate relief. They reach the source of the trouble and by their soothing, healing, antiseptic action first allay the pain and soreness and then by direct contact with the ulcers and piles cause them to heal and dis appear forever.
 It's simply wonderful how speedily they act. Blessed relief often comes in one or two hours. Even in cases that have steadily resisted all known treatments, marvellous results have been obtained.
 Axelrod's Pharmacy dispense MO- AVA SUPPOSITORIES in the orig iral box or can get it for you on short notice.
 ITCHING PLIES are not piles in fine true sense of tho word. For th.a condition MpAtA OINTMENT viii be found all that is necessary.

Auburn, N. r., July c2.-rhe old John D. Rockefeller home on the Au- burn road, four miles north of Mora via, was burned to the ground today after futile battle in which conNicts from Auburn prison tried to save the building. A defective chimney is be- leved to have caused the fire.
 Mir. Rockefeller visited the home only last week on his annual pilgrim age to the Finger Lakes region, fam iiar to him in his boyhood.
