He Is Right. Rev. J. E. Wray, pastor of St. i j Paul Methodist church, Colum* bus, who many people in this sec¬ tion know and love, took a tirm and wise stand in a recent ser¬ mon in regard to runaway mar¬ riages. He says he regards pa¬ rental disrespect as one of the greatest evils of the age and is opposed to having ministers give the sanction of the church to mar¬ riages by performing the cere¬ mony for runaway couples, and in stating his position he stands upon high grounds. Mr. Wray said he did not propose to dictate what other ministers should do — he was the keeper of only his own conscience—but for his own part he has always refused to marry runaway coup’es. Hebe lieves that it is better to send such couples to justices of the “peace and other state officers, thinking that when young people sh'ow such disrespect to their parents the church should not place the seal of its approval upon s icb a marriage. ‘‘Send such couples to the state,” he urged. “The church cannot afford to sanctify such nuptial contracts.” The Stomach is the Man. A weak stomach weakens the man, because it cannot t ram form the food he eats into nourishment.

A weak stomach cannot digest enough food to feed the tissues and revive the tired and worn out limbs and organs of the body.
