SUUDH SERVICES
FOB THE OHL
Despite the inclement weather,*
j quite a large number of people were
| present at the First Methodist church ]
I Friday night, to hear Evangelist ■
Arthur Moore.
j Mr. Moore used as his subject the
story of the “Rich Young Ruler.” In]
■a masterful way, Mr. Moore portrayed
:to his listeners the good qualities
j which this young man had, and what
he lacked to inherit eternal life. “You
I will note,” said the speaker, “that this
young ruler had kept the command
ments from his youth up, that morally
he was without blemish, and that he
b.ad everything that the world at large
considers essential to being right with
God. But when Jesus said, ‘sell all
that thou hast, and give to the poor,
and follow me,’ the young ruler buck
ed. He was willing to do all that he
thought was essential to being a
Christian, but when it came to sur
rendering his will to the Lord, and
giving up that which he held dearest
to himself, there was where the
parting of the ways came for the
young ruler. The Bible says He
went to his friends;’ he had those be
fcre he met Jesus; others say, ‘He
went back to his money and social
cares,’ but he also had them before he
met Jesus. I tell you that if we are
to believe the Bible, that young ruler
went away from the presence of Jesus
that day into eternal darkness, and
this picture is given us in the Bible
that we may take heed and not get
into the same fix as this young man
was.”
Mr. Moore closed his message by
exhorting his hearers to make up their
minds to surrender their wills to that
of God, and to be ready and willing
to do anything that the Spirit prompts
them to do, in order that they may be
brought to the state of grace intend
ed for them. Mr. Stapleton sung,
“Why Not Say ’Yes’ To The Saviou?
Tonight,” and this solo was greatly
enjoyed. It is hoped that Mr. Staple
ton will not let a service without
singing a gospel song.
I At 11:00 Sunday, there will be
preaching by Mr. Moore in the audi
torium of the First Methodist Church,
in which both the Methodist churches
are united. The subject for the morn
ing sermon will be “The Past, Its
Contribution to Us, The Future, Our
I Debt To It.” At 3:30 p. m. there will
be a mass meeting for everyone at
the First Methodist church, at which
time, the evangelist will preach on
the subject of Bible Repentance. This
is a sermon that no one should fail to
hear. At 7:45 p. m„ again at the
preaching, at which time Mr. Moore
will prerch from the subject “A Nolle.
Decision.
Monday night Mr. Stapleton will
deliver his famous “Candle Sermon”
for the young folks and children, but
at which service everyone is cordially
invited. This sermon is unique in
every way. Mr. Stapleton uses candles
for the different types of Christians
ar.d Church Members, and everyone
can rest assured that they will find
their candle somewhere, before the
sermon comes to an end. No one
should fall to hear this lecture. Mr.
Stapleton is in every place requested
to repeat this sermon, but it is im
possible to do so, on account of the
work and time consumed in getting
ready for it.

This class is made up of men and wo
men of middle age and older. Dr. Bur

more than usual scholarship.
The First Baptist extends to the

KOST COWUEKION
!’ flays we can't help but look
better and feel better
after an inside bath.
To look one's best and feel one’s
best is to enjoy an inside bath each
morning to flush from the system the
previous day's waste, sour fermenta
tions and poisonous toxins before it is
absorbed into the blood. Just as coal,
when it burns, leaves behind a certain
amount of incombustible material in
the form of ashes, so the food and
drink taken each day leave in the ali
mentary organs a certain amount of
indigestible material, which if not el
iminated, forms toxins and poisons
which are then sucked into the blood
through the very ducts which are in
tended to suck in only nourishment to
sustain the body.
If you want to see the glow of
healthy bloom in your cheeks, to see
your skin get clearer and clearer, you
'are told to drink every morning upon
arising, a glass of hot water with a
teaspoonful of limestone phospahte in
it, which is a harmless means of wash
ing the waste material and toxins from
the stomach, liver, kidneys r.nd bowels,
thus cleansing, sweetening and purify
ing the entire alimentary tract, before
putting more food into the stomach.
Men and women with sallow skins,
liver spots, pimples or pallid complex
ions, also those who wake up with a
coated tongue, bad taste, nasty breath,
others who are bothered with head
aches, billious spells, acid stomach or
constipation should begin this phos
phated hot -water drinking and are as
surred of very pronounced results in
one or two -weeks.
A quarter pound of limsetone phos
phate costs very little at the drug store
but is sufficient to demonstrate that
just as soap and hot water celanses,
purifies and freshens the skin on the
outside, so hot water and limestone
phosphate act on the inside organs. We
must always consider that internal
sanitation is vastly more important
than outside cleanliness, because the
skin pores do not absorb impurities in
to the blood, while the bowel pores do.

BILLIONS J YEAR
FROM IRE GERMANS
i
PARIS, May s.—The equivalent of
?3,200,000,000 a year is what Germany
should be compelled to pay the En
tente allies during as many years as
may be necessary to liquidate the total
war debt, asserts M. de Verneuil, hon
orary president of the Paris Official
Stockbrokers Association. He calcu
lates that she will be able to pay such
an annuity.
The exposition by Dr. Karl Helffer
ich, the German Vice-Chancellor, of
the economic situation of Germany in
1013 is taken by M. de Verneuil as
the basis of his calculations. The
figures he cites are as follows:
The wealth of the German empire
it, 1913—375,000,000,000 francs.
Annual revenue therefrom —50.000,-
000.000 francs.
Government and individual expendi
n’res of all 50rt5—37,500,000,000 francs,
including Germany’s vast outlay for
armament.
Total yearly economies—l2,soo,ooo,-
000 francs of which 2,500,000,000 francs
net savings from actual earnings.
These figures of Germany’s annual,
accumulation of wealth are confirmed, '
M. De A’erneuil asserts, by all careful >
German calculations and he takes the.
net 10,000,000,000 as the basis for fig-,
uring Germany’s paying capacity. He
adds 1,300.000,000 francs to be deriv-|
ed from a tax of five francs per ton on
Germany's coal production of 260,000,
000 tons, 660.000.000 to be raised by a
per capita tax of ten francs per year,
75,000.000 francs from an annual con
tribution levied upon all cities of more
than 100,000 population, and 1,750,000,-
000 francs from increased passenger
and freight rates and receipts from

to be applied to the indemnification of
I all the victims of the war.
M. de Verneuil disagrees with those
who think that Germany’s resources'
will be entirely exhausted when she
asks for peace. She will be able, he
thinks, very promptly after the cessa
tion of hostilities to take up again,
with even increased facilities for pro
duction, the extraordinary activity that

reason for loading upon Germany a
compensating burden that will prevent
her from enjoying an advantage so
ruthlessly gained.
