Dr. C. IF. Saleeby, the
u-idcly quoted authority on
eugenics, physiology, etc.
YOUR doctor will tell you
this : Broken-down nerve
tissues not a stimulant but
a builder, like organic phos
phorus. To get this essen
tial food actually to the
nerves ? that has been the
problem. And now the well
known medical authority,
Dr. C. "VV. Saleeby, of Lon
don, says:
"Sanatogen is a specially adapted
food that has solved the problem of
giving phosphorus in such a way
that the nervous system can aclual
lu take hold of it."
That is one feature of
Sanatogen ; the other and
equally important mission is
to build up blood and tissue
with albumen or protein.
As Prof. C. von Noorden, of
Vienna, another interna
tional authority, says:
"Sanatogen id an excellent^ al
buminous preparation of espe
cial value in anaemia and general
debility."
Strengthening the nerves,
building up the starved cells
? that is Sanatogen 's mis
sion, splendidly fulfilled
during eighteen years' suc
cessful use in every civilized
land, as the written testi
mony of over 21,000 physi
cians convincingly proves.
You who are nervous, run
down or anaemic, cannot
afford to ignore the help
that Sanatogen offers.

GIRARDEAU'S LIFE AND "WORK.
Southern Christian Advocate, a Meth
odist paper published at Anderson, S.
C., says:
The new volume entitled "Life and
Work of John L. Girardeau, D. D.,
LL. D.," is one of the most interesting
books that has ever found its way to
our review table.
Dr. George A. Blackburn^ /of Co
lumbia, is the editor and chief con
tributor. But it contains several val
uable chapters written by other skilled
writers. One of the best of these is
by Dr. Thomas H. Law, of Spartanburg.
His delineation of Dr. Girardeau is a
masterpiece.
The chapter on the evolution contro
versy, which so stirred the Presbyte
rian church 25 years ago, was written
by Dr. R. A. Webb. It contains the
speech made by Dr. Girardeau on this
subject which he was three hours in
delivering.
This book is very useful as a com
pendium of South Carolina religious
history.
It has an especial appeal to all the
lovers of Presbyterianism, one of the
purest and most vital forms of Chris
tianity extant.
This is the title of the book which
has just come from the press. Its au
thor is Rev. John Lee Allison, D. D.,
pastor of the Presbyterian church of
Alexandria, Va. Dr. Allison is one of
our most active and successful pas
tors, and has done good work in each
of the several charges which he has
had during his ministry, but this, we
believe, is his firat appearance before
the public as an author. This vol
ume contains twelve sermons and ad
VITAL TRUTHS.
dresses on the following subjects:
"The Souls Immortality," "A Multi
tude of Witnesses," "Missionary Con
gress at Washington," "LinkB That
Bind the World," "Seeking to Excel,"
"True Worship ? Its Influence on
Character," "Glory of Womanhood,"
"Depths of Divine Riches," "The Won
derful Christ," "Religion in the Fine
Arts," "Religion in the Home," and
"Faith ? Its Power and Preciousnes3."
Dr. Allison handles these vital topics
in a clear and practical way, bringing
out the great truths which are asso
ciated with them. This is done in a
spirit which is pleasing and attrac
tive, and which will afford enjoyment
and profit to those who read them.
They are greatly enriched by well se
lected passages of Scripture, which
present the great truths of religion.
They are brightened and made help
ful by appropriate illustrations gath
ered from many sources. They are
beautified with quotations from the
masters of prose and poetry.
This volume has been published at
the request of many of Dr. Allison's
friends, who heard these discourses
delivered by him, and who are anxious
to have them preserved in permanent
form. His many other friends will
And delight in owning the volume, and
those who do not know Dr. Allison
can find no better way of getting ac
quainted with him than reading this
book, for it carries a message from a
warm heart to all those who will re
ceive it.
Dr. Allison is entirely sound in his
interpretation of Scripture and in pre
senting the great truths of religion.
It is hoped that this book will meet
with such a reception on the part of
the reading public that Dr. Allison
may be induced to give the public
some more of the treasures from his
well stored mind. The book may be
purchased either from its author or
from the Presbyterian Committee of
Publication, Richmond, Vs.
THE SABBATH DAY.
By Rev. Charles R. Bailey.
Even In the face of a wicked and
perverse generation the Church must
not fall to sound out her warning,
"Remember the Sabbath day to keep
It holy." Men do not like to hear
this. They much prefer to use the
holy day as a holiday for their own
purposes. They much prefer to con
sider that keeping the Sabbath day
is old-fashioned and antiquated and
that all who are modern in their
thinking do not hold to any such out
of-date practice as keeping the Sab
bath. But the Sabbath is old-fash
ioned and religion is old-fashioned,
older than Abraham, and hell is old
fashioned; and I want to go to an
old-fashioned heaven, even if it is out
of date with some free-thinkers and
free-livers. a
However, God always will preserve
to Himself a people, those who will
respect His laws and love His insti
tutions. To those the Sabbath 1s
always a holy day, a delight, and these
will always rejoice to meditate upon
the Sabbath. We will not stop to
raise any of the numbers of fruitless
questions that can be raised about
the Sabbath, but will coniine ourselves
to matters that will be of spiritual
growth in grace. Therefore let us
confine and concentrate our minds
upon the character of the Sabbath.
Hie Sabbath is a memorial. All
tho little children have seen tho tomb
stones in the cemetery. These tomb
stones are memorials. They help us
to remember who is buried there. I
was once in a graveyard where they
had not put up these things to re
member by, so they had forgotten
who was buried there and oven where
the graves were. Thou, too, you have
seen a lock of hair or a ribbon to
remember somebody by. My mother
used to keep a ringlet from the first
cutting of my little baby sister's hair.
lat was to help her remember how
It looked. Jacob and Laban set up
a pile of rocks to remember a cove
nant by. Now the Sabbath is a me
morial. And it is about as old a me
morial as we have. It comes to us
from the beginning of mankind's stay ,
upon the earth. The Sabbath is the
oldest memorial. Now, tombstones
