THE ORPHANS
• Six States Represented in
The Recent Conference.
f
MUCH GOOD ACCOMPLISHED
A Great Movement In The Right
Direction.
The Orphans Home Conference
jus' he d in Atlanta was a decided
success. About forty homes for
destitute children were represent
ed not only By consecrated but
workers whose wide awake brains
are seeking new and betterr meth
ods of bringing out the largest
manhood possible. The intense
love for ihe worst outcast was
voiced by every one.
These workers represented six
states and 5000 orphans, and Dr.
Vass of South Carolina said that
there were twenty turned away
for every one received. The citi
zens must help these strugaln g
Homes with building and equip
ment and support, for th* y save
society from ninny a criminal.
The noble addresses of Doctors
Jacobs, Muniferd, Boone, Stewa-t,
Waddell, Senn, Lawrence and
others were capped by an appeal
to these State to ste that
refnrmaties for the young crimi
nals were founded, that we might
make good citizens of them, and
not educate them more deeply in
crime by ourp resent methods.
Rv. Dr. W. W . Landrum spoke
with great power of reformations
and a committe was appointed to
press the matter.
Mr. George Mull called atten
tion to the facr that so many chil
dren were being reared to la
ziness and worthlessness by being
allowed to stay in onr poor house
The conference reso'ved that the
people must be brought to rea'ize
the injury to these helpless chil
d m, ai d provide huntsf). t em
where the models will lilt them
up.
The interest was so great that
a conference will be held eacl
year. The < fficers are Rev. W. P.
Jacobs D.D. , of SC, Pres.
Rev. I. W. Stewart, Ala. Vice
Pres., and Rev. H. L. Crumley.
Atlanta Sec. Great result will
follow this Conference.

plains the key to the success of
the late Blanche K. Bruce Regis
ter of the Treasury, “He enjoyed
the reputation of being one of
the most polite men in Washing

by not trying to turn h’mself into
a white man, but a’ways remem
bering that he was a negro Hh

would suggest hit. removal.”

opinion that Mr. Catidler's

Too
Much Knife!
The use of the surgeon’s knife is be
coming so general, resulting fatally
in such a large number of cases, as to
occasion general alarm.
Mr. William Walpole, of Walshtown,
South Dakota, writes; “About
three years ago, there came under
] cry left eye a little blotch about the
/"* %. It grew rapidly,and
fl yg shooting pains ran
K 3 * n every direction.

’’lk -A J consent to, having
xS' little faith in the
indiscriminate use of the knife. Read
ing of the many cures made by S. S.
S., I determined to give that medicine
a trial, and after I had taken it a few
days, the cancer became irritated and
began to discharge. This after awhile
ceased, leaving a small scab, which
finally dropped off, and only a healthy
little scar remained to mark the place
where the destroyer had held full sway.
