S. <The General Assembly will await the presentation of no other report with a greater degree of Interest than the report of the Committee on Conference, and there is no matter of greater impor tant** to tome before the body than the question of the union of these two churches. The standards held by tiie United Presbyterian Church are the same a* those held by the Southern Presbyte rian Church and In the same sense each church accepts them. The two churches possess the same Scotch an cestry, adhere to the same policy, and administer the affairs of benevo lences under the* same departments. The distinct point of difference be tween the two churches Is the ex- . Iu?lvc use of the Psalms In the ser vice of praise in the l lilted Presby- icrian Church and it is around thin point in all probability, that the greatest discussion will center in the consideration of the union of the two churches. Two Other Big Features. Then are two other questions to come before the General Assembly that will constitute outstanding fea tures: The Federal Council and the brief popular statement of Doctrine »if the Church. During the Assembly of 1012, held at Bristol delegates were appointed to represent the Southern Presbyte rian Chuivh in the Federal Council of the Churches of Christ in Ameri- i a. which held Its quadrennial meet ing in December, at Chicago. The report of these delegates will he heard with interest. It is not Improbable that overtures will be presented to the Assembly urging that it with draw again from membership in the Council, but it is likely that a second withdrawal from membership in the Council will be opposed as ably as !t will be recommended. Two changes in the form of gov ernment of the church have been proposed and will be considered by the Atlanta Assembly. One Is with reference to cases of trial in the «hurch and the proposed change, which was approved by the Bristol Assembly, would give the Synod and the General Assembly the power, at their own discretion, to commit any case of trial coming before them on appeal to the judgment of a Commis sion. composed of others than mem bers of the Court from which the “CASCARETS” MAKE FEEL GREAT Gently Cleanse Your Liver and Sluggish Bowels While You Sleep. Sick headache, biliousness, dizzi ness coated tongue, foul taste and foul breath always trace them to torpid liver, delayed fermenting food in the bowels, or sour, gassy stomach. Poisonous matter clogged In the intestines instead of being cast out of the system is reabsorbed into the blood. When this poison reaches th«' delicate brain tissue it causes congestion and that dull, throbbing, sickening headache. Salts, cathartic pills, oil and purgative waters force a passage way for a day or two—yes—but they don’t take the poisons out and have no effect upon the liver or stomach. Cascarets immediately cleanse and regulate the stomach, remove the sour, undigested and ferment ing food and foul gaeps. take the excess biie from the liver and car ry out of the system all the con stipated waste matter and poisons in the bowels. A Cascaret to-night will surely straighten you out b\ morning. They work while you sleep—a 1 fl ee nt box from your druggist means your head clear, stomach sweet, and your liver and bowels clean and regular for months. « ase shall * on»e. this power to appl> in all cases except those affecting doctrine and those shall be tried by lhe Court Itself The other proposed change is with reference to the basis of representa tion in the General Assembly. The basis of representation at present i* one minister and one ruling eldei from everv Presbytery except in those Presbyteries where theie are more than twenty-five ministers and In those the representation In the Gen - era! Assembly shall be two ministers and two ruling elders, but no addi tional number of churches Increases til** representation. Plan Graduated Scale. The change proposed recommends that every Presbytery shall be rep resented In the General Assembly bj one minister and one ruling elder and that If the communicants of the churche* in the Presbytery and min isters on the roll number more than four thousand, the Presbytery Shall be entitled ip increase its represen tation to the Assembly with one min later and one ruling elder and that the representation ,contlnue to In crease In like proportion with the ad dition of every four thousand com municants and ministers. During the year 1 since the Bristol Assembly the Presbyteries have tak en action with regard to the proposed changes in the form of government: the answers of the eighty-nine Pre* byteries will be tabulated during the Atlanta Assembly and if three- fourths of the answers favor the pro posed changes, the changes will be come law, by the enactment of the Assembly. The ad Interim committee appoint ed by the Bristol Assembly to pre pare a brief popular statement of the doctrine* taught b.\ the Southern Presbyterian Church Is composed of fifteen representative men from all sections of the church, with Rev. R A. Webb. D. D., of the Kentucky Presbyterian Theological Seminary', at Louisville, ns chairman. This com mittee may be able to submit its re port to the Atlanta Assembly, but it .will not be oause for surprise If longer time is requested to complete this important work The prnparation of this brief pop ular statement has been requested for use especially as a tract in mission territory n* well as In other sections of the church; this statement will in no way displace the standards of the church, but will express the same in r simplified form nnd one that will be easy to handle, especially in mis sion territory of the church. Plan Lay Training School. A committee appointed by the Bris tol Assembly to prepare a general plan and the curriculum in outline for a iraining school for lay work ers will report. This committee consists of two members of each of the four Executive Committees of the church. The propositions as to the location of this training school have been presented to this commit tee and this fact adds to the inter est of the report and Richmond is among the cities from which propo sitional for the school have been re ceived. No popular meeting to be bold dur ing the General Assembly will be characterized with more rejoicing and thanksgiving Ilian those in the in terest of Foreign Missions and Horn* Missions. Aside from the fact that tho Southern Presbyterian Church has paid this year the “missionary debt” of more than one hundred thou sand dollars and has In the foreign mission treasury 14,200 with which to begin the work of the new fiscal year, facts will be presented to the General Assembly showing that the contributions to Home Missions also have made the largest Increase, ever made in one year in the history of the church. It will he shown the. the church has given to Home Missions this year S154.210.77. which is an increase of *28.423 60 over the receipts of last year The facts regarding the In crease In interest and contributions for Foreign Missions and Home Mis Fiona will cause the Atlanta Assem bly to be characterized with the mil sionary note to a greater degree than lias been true as yet of any Assem bly in the history of the church.

It lias been truthfully said that anv disturbance of the even balance of health causes serious trouble. No body can be too careful to keep this balance up. When people begin to lose appetite, or to get tired easily, the least Imprudence brings on sick ness, weakness or debility. The sys tem needs a tonic, craves it, and should not be denied it: and the best tonic of which we have any knowl edge is Hood's Sarsapar.lla. Wha* this medicine has done in keeping healthy people healthy, in keeping up the even balance of health, gives it the same distinction as a preventive that it enjoys as a cure. Its early use has illustrated the wisdom of the old saving that a stitch in time saves nine. Take Hood's for appetite strength and endurance. Booklet No 2.
