Watch Out.
IF in grocery stores, in cooking schools, or by
peddlers in your kitchen, any baking powder
is recommended or urged upon you in place of
the Royal, it is because such recommendation is
paid for. It is unsafe to substitute any baking
powder in place of the old standby, the thoroughly
tried Royal. The official reports show that all
others are cheaper made powders of inferior strength,
and contain either lime, alum or sulphuric acid.

The Home Mission Board —Dr.
Tichenor was able to be at the Pas
tors Conference and made an inter
esting report:
The work of this Board is pros
pering. Its financial condition, con
sidering the great money pressure, is
good. Notwithstanding the enlarge
ment of its work, the Board has had
Do occasion to borrow money since
the Convention. Quarterly payment
to its missionaries falls due August
Ist, and the Board has well nigh
money enough on hand to meet this
payment. The work of the mission
aries has been greatly blessed. The
spiritual condition of the churches is
gratifying. Texas reports for the
quarter ending june 30th. Baptisms
110, total additions 1258, churches
constituted 31, houses of worship
built 11, costing $0,500. The bap.
tisms by all the missionaries of the

OOME TO THE EEBOUE-
As surely any know effect follows
a cause, just so surely will disease
of the kidneys succeed their inactivi
ty if that inaction be not promptly
remedied. Come to the rescue with
Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters, which
gives a healthful impulse to the ac
tion of both the kidneys and the
bladder without exciting them, like
an unmedicated stimulant. Render
ed active by this genial diurectio
and tonic, they perform their func
tions thoroughly and regularly re
moving the system impurities which
beget rheumatism, dropsy, gravel,
Bright’s dsease diabetes and and ca
tarrh of the bladder. The contract
ion of either one of these formidable
maladies is the penalty exacsed by
nature for indifference to that plain
warning—sluggish action of the kid
neys. When this exists, not a mo
ment should be lost in the use of the
remedy indicated. Bear in mind that
Bitters relieves with equal prompti
tude disorders of the stomach, liver,
bowels and nervous system, and
cure or prevent malarial complaints.
Marietta. —Pastor J. A. Wynne
baptized two persons last Sabbath
afternoon. These came into the

This shows that the church is in fine

with marble blocks, four feet long,
one foot wide and three inches thick.
The auditorium will seat about five

Nashville has become the educa

which are universities and 15 col

Every denomination has a school
there. Boscobel is the representa

While there are good colleges for
young women,Boscobel enjoys prom

could not offer a more eligible loca

This valuable property belongs to

Dr. McGlynn. —A recent visit to Rome
seems to have settled the differences
between the Pope and Dr. McGlynn. It
was stated, at one time, that he had

any concessions or retractions on his

of his restoration in conducting services
in a Catholic church. Now he is promi

The Lamas of Thibet.- One of the
most important of the winter religious
duties of the lamas is the reading of
the sacred classics under the roof of
each householder. By this means the
family accumulate merit, and the longer
the reading is protracted the greater is
the accumulation. A twelve-volume
book is taken in the houses of the richer
householders, each one of the twelve or
fifteen lamas taking a page, all reading
at an immense pace in a loud chant
at the same time. The reading of
these volumes, which consist of Budd
hist metaphysics and philosophy, takes
five days, and while reading each lama
lias his cliang cup constantly replen
ished. In the poorer households a clas
sic of but one volume is taken, to lessen
the expense of feeding the lamas.—Leis

A Sunday-school at Carrollton, Ga.—
A missionary of the American 8. 8. Un

Herald, July 10,1803. It seems to be a
strange statement and needs explana
tion:
“At Carrollton, Ga., is a Sunday-school
which was organized by a missionary
three years ago, in a little log-house in
the midst of the piney woods. The
people were poor and ignorant, and the
children growing up in ignorance and
sin. never been a Sunday
school in the community. He visited
the families in the neighborhood and
wrote:
“I found poverty and ignorance and
sin on every hand, several families with
out a Bible or Testament, and many who
had never heard a Gospel sermon
preached. - There were some people
over fifty years old who could not read,
and who had never been in school. I
found only four professing Christians in
the community, who would agree to
assist in a Sunday-school, but with those
as a nucleus the work was undertaken
and the school started. The people
were so poor that 1 had to give the sup
plies to start them out of my own salary.
Ou a recent visit I found that a great
change had been wrought in the com
munity. They now have a neat now
school house, the families are all sup
plied with the Word of God, a prayer
meeting is held and is well attended, a
good Sunday-school is kept up winter as
well as summer.”

DIVERSITY OF GIFTS-
In the twelvth chapter of Romans,
Paul writes helpful words about the di
versity of God’s gifts to men. He points
out the parallel between the different or
gans, parts and functions of the natural
body, and the members of the body of
Christ. It is a very simple, clear and
instructive parallel and illustration. No
one thinks it at all strange that there are
different and differing members in his
own body. It is taken for granted that
there should be such diversity. We all
want it to be so, and would feel badly if
it were not so. But how differently we
feel and act with regard to the diversity
which exists in the spiritual, mystical
body of Christ! Especially is this true
if our own gifts be small. How often
we envy the brother who has a much
larger gift than we have. We are apt to
be jealous of him. We say that we will
not try to do anything in particular for
the cause, because our gifts is so small.
If we only had such a gift as a certain
brother or sister has, then we would use
it. Well, perhaps we would not, after
all. And perhaps also if we had larger
gifts we would be vain about them.
Paul seems to have had this thought in
mind when, in connection with writing
on this subject, he cautions every broth
er “not to think of himself more highly
than he ought to think.” He knew that
there is danger, in the case of one who
has superior gifts, of his thinking too
highly of himself. There are but very
few men who would, with such gifts as
Mr. Spurpeon possessed, be as humble
as he was. God dare not trust many
with such remarkable gigts. It would
be too dangerous. God has shown his
great wisdom in distributing his gifts to
men. And what he wants of us is to use
just such gifts as lie has committed to
us. If we be to the body of Christ what
the little finger is to the natural body,
we are just as great obligation to use it
to the honor of Christ as though we
were the largest and most important part
of the body. Every member is essential
to the prosperous working and beneficent
efficiency of the whole body; therefore
despise not thy gift

Perhaps no greater moral victory has
been won than that by the religious press
in the closing of the World’s Fair on
Sunday. The local directory, voted 24
to 4an almost unanimous surrender. It
is now in order for this same power to
take up the Exposition and do what it
can to make it a financial success. The
Exposition is undoubtedly by an educator
and now that Sunday closing has been
accomplished, let the great leverage of
the religious press be applied to make
the best of the Exposition.
Possibly such scenes have never bee n
witnessed in the West as last week
brought to that great section of our
grand country.

called an electrical age. One of the
latest enterprises is an experiment to
purify croton water by electricity. Dr.
Edson is superintending a series of ex
