EDUCATION IN TEXAS.
The only work In which the Synod ot
Texas, as such, is engaged is that of
education. The Synod now has three
colleges?Austin College, Sherman; Daniel
Baker College, Brownwood; and Texas
Presbyterian College for Girls, Millord.
In addition to these there are the
Theological Seminary at Austin and the
Home and School for Orphans at Files.
These schools are all in need. Why?
Because they are alive and growing.
They are doing their work with increasing
efficiency. To meet this need the
Synod has ordered a conference to be
held. It wants the consecrated men and
women in Texas Presbyterianism to
know what is going on. A committee of
business men has been appointed to
hold the conference. Notice who they
are: From Houston, Hon. Jas. A. Baker,
Mr. R. M. Farrar, Mr. J. Lewis Thompson:
from Dallas, Hon. Rhodes S. Baker,
Mr. H. H. Adams; from Austin, Hon. T.
\\\ Gregory; from Texarkana, Hon W. L.
Estes; from Fort Worth, Mr. D. C. Camphell;
from Orange, Mr. F. H. Farwell;
from San Antonio, Hon. Yale Hicks.
These are men of large affairs, among
the busiest men of the busiest State in
the South. But they have time for the
Lord's work and tire planning big things.
This committee has called a conference
of Presbyterian men and women of Texas
to be held in Dallas, April 21, 1910.
They propose to let these men and women
know what has been done by Presbyterians
in education in Texas. They
propose to show them that the Church
has a place in the educational world.
They propose to show what can be
uone in i exas. 1 aey prupuot; iu j^nv >k
to the business men as a business proposition,
whether they will support the I
work or not.
Pastors and sessions are urged to note
the date and place?Dallas, San Jacinto
Day, April 21, 1910?and to urge their ;
members to attend.

RHEUMATISM.
may be completely cured by the new
external remedy called LUX. This preparation
is a soothing, healing tissue-nourishing
liniment of great penetrating 1
power causing not the least stain or irri- !
tat ion when applied. A proved remedy
tor both inflammatory anu mustumi j
rheumatism. Mrs. J. E. Hoxie, (75 year?,
old) of Brockton, Mass., writes: "I have
used it with great satisfaction. My rheu
niatism no longer troubles me and I feel
that I am cured." Mr. Ben Jones, of
Allemande, I,a., writes: "I was laid up
three months with rheumatism of the hip.
LUX cured me. Within three days after !
beginning to use it I was up loading
cross-ties." LUX is a specific for all
sub-surface inflammations. Takes the
place of plasters and poultices. Ask your
druggist for it or send One Dollar to the
LUX Company, Box 507, New Orleans,
and receive a bottle by registered mail.

Texarkana, Tex.
In August, 1909, it was fifty years since
the Presbyterian Church began its mission
work in Brazil. And in January of
this year, 1910, the General Assembly of
the Presbyterian Church in Brazil, celebrated
its semi-centennial, with a Presbyterian
membership of about 15,000.
Other Churches have followed and have
been richly blessed. In Brazil's population
of 20,000,000, there is now a membership
in Evangelical Churches of about
30,000. Dr. Gammon's book comes at the
right time, is most admirably prepared,
and is attractive and inspiring reading
throughout. With chapters on the
geography and natural resources, the
elements of population and the history,
the author writes of the need of Protestant
missions, the Evangelical invasion,
the fruits of victory, and the appeal this
country makes to the Christians of our
own country. It will be read throughout
our Church, and bear much fruit.
Well done. Dr. Gammon!
