We of the South feel that that com parison is strong enough for any living man; while the peo- s pie up North and out West where “Billy” Sunday is working such won ders under God, feel that his like has never been seen before. For nearly six weeks now eighteen to twenty thousand people have been jamming the mammoth Tabernacle in Pittsburg every day to hear this won derful “Baseball Evangelist” as he is called. With methods that repel many and attract thousands more, with rock-rib bed orthodoxy that believes in the Deity of Christ, Heaven for those who accept him and Hell for the wicked who reject him, and with a power over men which God has given to few men in all the history of Chris tendom this remarkable preacher of evangelical Christianity and conquer- TRY THIS FOR YOUR HEALTH For diseases which do not readily yield to drug treatment, such as chronic dyspepsia, indigestion, rheu matism, Bright’s disease, gall stones, u-ic acid poisoning, and diseases of the kidney and liver, the best physi cians send their wealthy patients to the famous mineral springs.

Pittsburg, Jan. 26. —More than 40,- 000 men yesterday pledged themselves to support any movement to down the liquor traffic as a result of the most remarkable sermon the Rev. William A. Sunday has preached in his Pitts burg campaign. “Booze, or Get on the Water Wagon,” was the topic. Mr. Sunday preached it twice, once in the afternoon and again in the even ing. It was estimated that more than 60.000 heard him and there were thou sands who could not get into the build ing. At the morning service, when the evangelist preached on “The Holy Spirit,” the crowd numbered fully 18,- 000. The afternoon brought more than 20,000 men to the tabernacle and the night crowd was equally as large. At the morning service 45 persons ac cepted the invitation to profess con version. Nearly 200 came forward at the end of the afternoon sermon and more than 300 in the evening. Men well-known about town as habitues of cases, others who have been promoters of prize fights or have performed in the fistic ring and still others who are leaders in business and financial life were in line. Some came weeping; some were led by friends. A father was seen leading his son and a son his father. Hundreds who had been seated in the rear of the taber nacle struggled to reach the front, but were unable to get through the crowd. The morning service ended about noon and a half hour later the taber nacle was filled. Thousands of men stood in the aisles. They fought with one another for standing room. For an hour before the service began the police struggled with the crowd to get the aisles clear. (To be continued.)

With I I it one man and a mule at $2 a day can chop the same amount of cotton that I eight men at $8 a day can chop by hand, saving $6 a day. In one week I it more than saves its cost—s3s. The American Cotton Chopper chops I the cotton, dirts it and cultivates it all in one operation, at the rate of about I one acre every hour and a half. Spaces hills any distance apart desired from 12 to 21 inches. Can be quickly con- verted from a chopper into a cultivator by adding extra teeth or plows. Besides reducing the cost of chopping i 75 per cent, it eliminates entirely the risk of crop losses jfr owing to shortage of hands or shiftless labor.
