Rice, a prominent druggist of Greensboro, writes as follows: "I have handled Dr. Pitta’ Carminative for eight years, and have never known of a single instance where it failed to givo perfect satisfaction. Parties who once use it always make permanent customers. We sell more of thia article than all the other Carminatives, soothing syrups and colic drops combined.’’ For teething children It has no equal.

And tbie might lead to another, Why oppose their bs lief? To begin with, by their own confet*. eion, and despite their specious recan tations, polygamy is of the warp and woof of the system ; this idea enters into their conception of God, and of life eternal; with it they have polluted the very name of Jeans Christ, and have made him a participator in their crime. "Convince a man against his will, He’s of the same opinion still.” What do Mormons believe? To read their tracts, and ,bear them preach there is very little to distinguish them from Evangelicals Faith, repentance, baptism, the gift of the Holy Ghost, right living—that’s a good creed. They believe in the Trinity—in fact there are two The Father, the 800, the Holy Ghost. The otherJeho vab, Elohim and Michael, which is Adam. They believe too in the atone, ment through Jesus Christ, by which all men may be suved. They believe in tbr Bible, but they believe that the Word of God is recorded not only in the Bible, but in the Book of Mor mon, “and in all other good books”— they are Liberals. They believe in the literal gathering of Israel, or of the Indians, who are the lost tribes; that the New Zion has been or will be established in America; the millennium, and the transforms' lion of earth into a paradise. They believe in the resurrectioh of the body. They do not believe that "In Adam’s fall, we sinned all.” And lastly, they believe in being good. Barring that double trinity, and a lew other details, that is a good creed, one to which ah most any Christian might subscribe. Just there lies the trouble. They equiv ocate, are not open—they tell only half. The'test of a religion is the God it sets forth. The Mormon God is a mass of blasphemous incongruities. Their God was once a man, who has attained to such perfection that comparatively speaking, he may be said to be infinite, but has still the form and figure of a man—even legs. He is different from other men who have not yet become gods, in that he can move around in space without the use of bis legs, Christ, as they know him, is the result of a material union between Gel and Mary, who were married by the Angel Gabriel. Christ had, however, a pre vious existence, made the world out of unformed chaotic matter, and is Lord of All. Their idea ofTbe Holy Ghost is vague, and self-contradictory—he, or it, is material—material spirit! “Gods, angels, men are all of one species, one race, one great family.” “The prophet Joseph Smith taught that man, that is bis spirit, is the offspring of Deity, not in any mystical sense, but actual ly.” "When our Father Adam came into the Garden of Eden be came into it with a celestial body, and brought Eve, one of his wives, with him.” "He (Adam) is our Father, and our God, and the only God with whom we have to do.” “God himself was once as we are now”—“be has a body of flesh and bones as tangible as man’s.” "You have got to learn to be gods yourself —the same as all gods have done be fore you.” "Angels, men and devils are his offspring by procreation.” "Men become gods by practicing ce» lestial marriage, and other Mormon principles ” "What man is God was, what God is man shall be.” We ob ject to Mormonism then on the ground that it is one thing on the surface, an- The Sure La Grippe Cure.

The meth* od pursued by its propogandists in uncandid, hence unscriplual. Its God is no more like Jehovah than is Jupiter. Its Jesus is a sinner against God Its Holy Ghost is an impossi* bility, or a paradox. The Holy Gaal with such an abherent conception of God at its foundation, what is built on it must be less than true. The word of God, which is the Holy Bible is the only infallible xule of faith and practice for Christians. The book of Mormon is a transparent fraud. The propogandists of this monstrous religion are in dead ernest. Their methods which are sterotyped are such as to catch the nnwary and the ignoiant. They represent an ecclesiastical or ganisation that is immensely wealthy, that experience Las shown to be un scrupulous, and that works under cover; a theology that was conceived in ignorant credulity, and born io fraud. Their history—a brief one—has been accentuated with cruelty, and under scored with blood; io it enough of pathos and martyr blood to give it an aroma of sanctity ; amid its voicings are the wails of women. The persistency that has built a temple that it look 40 years to finish, that temple standing for mysteries unrevealed to gentfles—such persis tency coupled with fanatical zeal, means, if it means anything, final perseverance. f Mormons have bad revelations and seen visions. What a vision they may have had of tbo KINGDOM! . Since statehood was given to Utah, "Ambition is entrenched behind ab solute autonomy.” "The hold of the church on the state is becoming stronger each year.” Who can tell what vision, of worldly dominion may have come to these saints, who are waiting for the, kingdom. It is a principle of Americanism that church and state MUST and dis tinct—in Utah they are virtually one. And now a word more. There is nothing in common between the Mor mon hierarchy, and the Evangelical churches. Their God is not ours— their Christ is not ours—their Holy Ghost is not ours. The Holy Bible and that alone is our rule of faith and practice. They have in addition the Book of Mormon, and all other good books. If our religion is right, theirs is wrong. If ours be the true God, theirs are as false Baal. Presbyterian Church. On account of the funeral of Mrs. Drake there will be no morning service or Sabbath school at the Presbyterian church today.
