Tho following resolutions woro adop ted nt the close of the session of tho , Danville District, M. E. church con vention hold nt Hazleton Tuesday anci Wednesday, September 20 and 27. 'Tho committeo to whom was referred tho subjects under discussion at the conven tion, beg leavo vo report tho follow ing : 1, That wo believe with tho introduc tory sermon that the chief need of our ministry and membership to day as a prerequisite for the work of saving souls and thu construction of Chrislaiu char acter is tho anointing of tho Holy Ono. 2, That tho aspects of things on the district !is sketched in tho presldiut.r elder's report, and tho verbal statements of tho pastors, present, ground for on couragmcnt and should Inspire us with greater faith in our catno and in our solvcs. 3, That we aro in thorough sympathy with the now feature engrafted upon tho church convention idea of our pre siding elder, viz : That of holding lo cal conventions in tho rural districts and villages, and wo heartily recom mend their continuance. 1, That wo hail with pleasure tho now phase of tho temperance movement known ns tho "Prohibition Constitu tional Amendment," and beliovo it to bo thn harbinger of tho good timo coining when tho temperance element of tho Stato shall get thoroughly organized, that it may Bhow its real power, and wo hereby pledge ourselves to support the men nominated for tlieLegislaturo who will pledge themselves to submit the question to the people. !i, That tho Lord's Day as a com mand and privilego in its opportunities and blessedness should bo guarded with a jealous Methodist eyo against all evil tendencies of corporations, laws, indi viduals or tho press so lar as they in terfere with tho old timo obscrvanco of tho day God has sanctified and set apart for man's refreshment and worship. 0. That we aro strengthened in our convictions that if Methodism would do its whole duty as an evangelizing force, our distinctive doctrine? and usa ges should bo kept prominent ; that special attention should bo given to class meetings, lovo feasts, revival meetings, the religious instruction of tho children and tho caro of our converts. Wo beliovo also that our class lead ers should bo men thoroughly couso cratcd to God, that they should prepare themselves thoroughly for their work, and would respectfully suggest (if deemed feasible) that a class leaders' convention should bo held for the dis trict, for consultation and prayer and tho comparison of methods, so that old time meetings might again become a thing of power. 7, That in the matter of church fi nanciering our peoplo should uso both conscience and method, and be impell ed by the spirit of a ' wide generosity in supporting the ministry and tho va rious church benevolences. 8, In relation to the proposition of Rev. John 'A. Lloyd we recommitl tho creation of a "Thank Offering Fund" of the Danvillo district, and that a com mittee of three ministers and two lay men bo appointed (of whom the presid ing elder should bo treasurer) to dis tribute this monoy to needy ministerial brethcrn in tho district. 9, That before us lie many unoccu pied fields waiting for the touch of a consecrated spirit, and this broadening of our vision and this constant cry of helpless humanity for a risen aiul exalt ed Savior fill us with alarm, lest in any wise we fail ot meeting our obliga tions. In order therefore to meet such obli gations wo suggest that a committeo be appointed (of winch tho presiding elder shall bo chairman) to consist of ! three preachers and three laymen, who sunn t.iKU inese ileitis anil tueii neces sities into earnest anil prayerful con sideration, and devise such plans as may provido for tho establishment of homo missions in those destitute places.

Stammering or stuttering varies all tho way from a slight impediment in the speech to a difficulty of utterance that is painful to those who witness it. Authorities agree that it is, as a gen eral thing, a nervous affection, and tho successful methods of treating it aro thoso that give tho patient control over those "nerves ami muscles con cerned in articulation. It is a singular fact that those who stammer most violently can usually sing without im pediment. W e had tho pleasure ot a visit a tew weeks ago from tho emi nent Dr. Dawson Turner, of London, Eng., who told us of a method by which ho had cured confirmed cases of stammering. It being a nervous af fection, everything tending to excito input should bo avoided. Talk to tho patient quietly, uud ask linn to sit low n with you where no others will bo present. It is important to divert his attention from the organs of speech, therefore show him how to shut his hand with tho forefinger only extended, as ono would naturally do in nointing to a distant object. Engage lus atten tion as much ns possiblo on tho proper position of tho fingers. Then ask hitn to repeat any sentence nfter you, fol lowing you in making a tap with tho linger alter each syllable. Tho taps may bo mado by tho forefinger of tho right hand in tho palm of tho left hand, but preferably on a table Dr. Luriier told us of Ins euro of tho en gineer on an ocean steamer upon which ho was a passenger. The engineer was highly esteemed for his skill, but his inveterate stammering so interfered with his usefulness that it nearly un fitted him for his position, as in an emergency ho was unablo to say what should bu sattl promptly, Tho doctor had giren tho engineer a fow lessons witli success, and tho captain was much BurprUcd to havo the engineer como to hini ono day with, "Cap tap, tain tap, the tap, pro-tYyi, pel tap h r tap, is tap, Xno tap, ken tap, and tap, wo tap, must tap, lay tap, to tap, for tap, xo-tap, pairs tap. To havo given this message in his usual puuincr would havo required a long timo "and ti kcvero struggle. This illustrates tho method: boino quiet friend should first practice with the stammerer nloiio, until he can speak without ditliuulty, and then gradually accustom hitn to tho preBcnoo of others, Auurlcan Agriculturist.
