What
Bishop Dubbi Sayt About
Prospects of the Church.
the
Members of the United Evangeli
cal church in this city will be interest
ed in knowing that in conversation
with a Harrisburg Patriot interviewer
Bishop Dubbs stated that the Eoan
gtlithe Zeit8chrift a German paper
will be issued m Harrisburg about
January 1, About $10,000 have been
expended on it but it is now on a
paying basis. The church has pur
chased the entire plant for $12,000
and all the German publications of
the church will be issued from the
Harrisburg publishing house.
Bishop Dubs has gone to Nebraska
to officiate at the dedication of sever
al chuiches. He is very sanguine
about the work of the new church
and says it is advancing rapidly in
every section. He gave a list of
seventeen churches In Eastern and
Central Pennsylvania at the dedica
tion of which he has personally
officiated during the last several
months. 'On December 15 he will
dedicate a church at Schuylkill
Haven ; on the 22A one at William

January 5 r.t Carlisle; January 12 at
Mauch Chunk ; January 19, at Johns

presidency of Mr. Esenwein.
Few people know that all plants
contain digestive principles. They
cannot absorb their food until it is
digested any more than animals can.
The Mount Lebanon , Shakers have
learned the art of extracting and
utilizing these digestive principles,
and it is for this, reason that their
Shaker Digestive Cordial is meeting
with such phenomenal success in the
treatment of dyspepsia. The Shaker
Digestive Cordial not only contains
food already digested, but it also con
tains digestive principles which aid
the digestion of other foods that may
be eaten with it. A single 10 cent
sample bottle will be sufficient to de
raonstrate its value, and we suggest
that every suffering dyspeptic make a
trial of it. Any druggist can supply it.

Christmas And Chrysanthemums.
When stately chrysanthemums are
in their prime, Christmas thoughts are
in the air j and the happy combina
tion of both in Demorest's Magazine
for December makes it an ideal
Christmas number. Page after page of
handsome illustrations depict various
phases of Christmas pleasure, and a
timely article on " The Infant Christ
in Legend and Art." embellished with
nnmerous and beautiful reproductions
of the Madonnas by modern painters,
gives some curious legends about the
Christ-child, and similar legends about
a virgin born saviour that exist in all
the religions of the East. There is a
superbly illustrated paper on the At
lanta Exposition; stories by Gilbert
Parker and Joseph Hat ton are among
the fiction ; there are Christmas
poems, and lots of suggestions about
Christmas gifts and entertainments,
and every one of the departments is
replete with timely and valuable in
formation. In addition to all this,
there is the beautiful picture of
" Chrysanthemum," a perfect repro
duction of the water-color by the emi
nent artist Paul de Longpre, which is
given as a Christmas Supplement.
Everyone who possesses the' lovely
"Yard of Pansies" and "Yard of
Roses " needs this to complete a trio
of pictures that cannot be surpassed
for decorative effect ; and any one
may obtain it, also a December num
ber ot Demorest s, by cutting out this

Boy, Bee and Cow.
An exchange says that an humble
boy with a shining pail went singing
gaily down the vale, to where a cow
with a brindle tail, on alfalfa did regale.
A bumble bee did gaily sail over the
soft and shady vale, to where the boy
with a shining pail was milking the
cow with a brindle tail. , The bee lit
on the cow's left ear, her feet flew up
through the atmosphere, and through
the leaves of a cottonwood tree, the
boy soared into eternity.
A False Diagnosis.
La Grippe is confounded by many
persons with a severe attack of catarrh,
which in some respects resembles the
former. These individuals suffer
severely with pain about the forehead,
eyes and ears, with soreness in throat
and stoppage of the nasal passages,
and in fact, are incapacitated for
work of any kind for days at a time.
These are catarrhal sufferers. Ely's

From the Era, Uradford, Pa.
Too few people are ncquuinted with the
rapid advance of medical science, and too many
doctor are still plodding the old pathi. Once
it comes to pass that people know themselves,
that all physicians are abreast of the world's
knowledge, much of our suffering will come to
nn end. Medical scientists are notdelving into
the depths of knowledge for the mere benefit
of brother physicians, but for the benefit of the
world. They place in the hands of the well
man a means of keeping well, in the hands of
the sick a means of recovery. To tis parent
they give the power of saving the child.
Science is working for you will yon accept

Mrs. George Rowend, an estimable lady who
resides at No. 276 East Main Street, Bradford,
Pa., has cause to feel grateful towards the
science of medicine.
One day recently a reporter, learning that
Mrs. Rowend had been greatly benefited by the
use of a new medicine, interviewed her. She
stated that she had been suffering with a female
trouble for many years. She had been doctored
fur the ailment for a long time in fact, nearly
all her life and had never received anything
more than temporary relief. During the lost
three years her condition grew worse and was
aggravated by an affection of the heart. Her
health was so poor that she found it almost im
possible to perform her household duties.
" I never believed in proprietary medicines,"
said Mrs. Rowend, "but one day last fall I read
an article in a newspaper which told of the
cures effected by Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and
I decided to try the medicine. Before I had
taken the contents of one box I began to feel
better. The depressing weakness which had
bothered me for so many years began to disap
pear, and the action of the heart at once became
stronger and more regular.
" I took nine boxes of the pills and I am now
feeling better than I have for several years, and
T. have unbounded faith in theraedicint."
Mrs. Rowend will now be able to rid her
bicycle, if she wishes, without danger to her
health, a thing which was impossible before her
use of Pink Pills.

viewed her for publication, and her story,
which will interest all women, is as follows:
" I was born in Hartford, Cortland County,
N'ew York, fortytwo years ago. I have been
married twenty-one years and am the mother of
right children. About two years ago I was
afflicted with troubles incidental to my sex nnd
suffered agonizing pain. The trouble continued
to grow worse.until last winter I was compelled
to take to my bed. I called in regular physi
cian, but his treatment did not seem to do me
much good and only relieved me for a little
time, after which my condition became worse
than before. I was confined to my bed for three
months and was absolutely unable to attend to
my household duties. I could hardly feed my
self, so weak had I become. I had to be waited
upon day and night and was a physical wreck.
There ill very grave doubts about my ultimate
recovery. The best hopethedoctor could hold
out to me was that I might be able to pet
around again and attend to my household
duties after remaining in bed a few months
longer. But instead of getting better I prew
steadily worse. One day I happened to read in
the paper about I'r. Williams' Pink Tills fur
Pale People and decided to give them a trial.
Immediately after taking them and before 1 liml
used half a box I saw a marked change for tlx
better in my condition. All this time, however,
I was confined to my bed. I continued tukinc
the medicine until I had used four boxes, and
by that time I was able to be about and around
again. The improvement has been steady ever
since. I am still a little weak, but am grow
ing stronger as fast as nature, aided by Dr.
Williams' Pink Pills, will let me. I have great
fuiih in these pills and shall use them hereafter.
My husband, who felt real miserable all the
spring, took them and they made a new man of
him. I have also used them for my daughter
aged nineteen years, who has found them very
beneficial for troubles incidental to her sex.
So far a I am myself concerned, I consider it
a wonderful cure."
Mrs. Gates has lived in North Maine for
many years and is highly respected. Any
statement she makes is cheerfully acquiesced in
by her friends and acquaintances.
The foregoing is but two of many wonderful
cures that have been credited to Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills for Pal People. Diseases which
heretofore hare been supposed to be incurable,
such as locomotor ataxia and paralysis succumb
to this wonderful medicine as readily as the
most trifling ailments. In many cases the re
ported cure have been investigated by the
leading newspapers and verified in every pos
sible manner, and in no cose has the least
semblance of fraud been discovered. Their
fame has spread to the far ends of civilization
and there is hardly a drug store in this country
or abroad where they cannot be found.
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills contain, in a eon.
densed form, all the elements necessary to give
new life and richness to the blood and restore
shattered nerves. They are an unfailing
specific fur such diseases as locomotor ataxia,
partial paralysis, St. Vitus' dance, sciatica,
neuralgia, rheumatism, nervous headache, the
after effect of la grippe, palpitation of the
heart, pale and sallow complexions, all forms
of weakness either in mole or female. Pink
Pills are sold by all dealers, or will be sent
post paid on receipt of price, 60 cents a box,
or.six boxes for $2.50, by addressing Dr. Wil.

SWAN QUARTEB8 0HUR011.
A Godless Man Rotuscd It a Site, Bui a
Tide That Boat tho Record Sottlcd It.
"If you should aver po down into
Jlyile county, N. C.,' saul a member
of the Pamlico Sound Sportsman's
club, " and should stop at Swan
Quarter, the quaint county seat, you
would see a church perched on lop of
what they called a hill. There is a
curious story connected with that
church.
Hyde county has two coasts, the
Tamlico Sound coast and the Atlantic
ocean coast. Half of the county lies
under water from 100 to 200 feet
deep. That water is Pamlico Sound.
The county also includes in its area
that narrow strip of shifting sand
dunes and scrub grass extending from
Chicomack lianks southeast to Cape
Hatteras and from Cane Hatteras
southwest to Ocracock Inlet, a strip
apparantly unstable, and in some
places barely a stone's throw across,
but yet able to defy the Atlantic's
fiercest attacks. That is how Hyde
county came to have two coasts.
During the fierce northeast storms
that are frequent there the sound tide
rises sometimes as high as six feet.
" Swan Quarter is in the southeast
corner of the mainland, on the sound.
Several years ago some of the Swan
Quarter citizens resolved to build a
church. There was only one spot in the
town that offered a site entirety safe
from the tide in time of storm. This
was what is known as a hill down
there a hummock of sand rising a
few feet above its surroundings. This
hill belonged to a man who didn't
want any such thing as a church, and
who refused to sell it at any price.
The church people did the next best
thing and built their church on ground
which, while not being entirely beyond
reach of the tide, was not in any
particular danger, and to make it
absolutely safe, they set it on, piles
that raised it above the highest high
water mark on recoid on that coast.
" The church was completed and
ready for occupation. Two nights
betore tne day the dedication exer
cises were to be held in it there came
a terrible storm. Next morning when
th citizens of Swan Quarter went
forth they were amazed. Such a tide
as had never been before must have
risen during the night, for the church
was gone from its hieh place on the
piles. But, more amazing still, the
tide had risen still higher than that,
so high that it had carried the church
to the summit of the hill and then-
receded, leaving the church standing
squarely on the hummock, uninjured
in any way. Of course, every one
saw in this the unmistakable hand of
Providence. It alarmed the godless
owner of the hill, who had refused to
sell it at any price for the sacred
edifice, and he not only gave the land
to the congregation without money
and without price, but also became a
devout member of it himself and re
mained one to his dying day. The
church stands to day just where it was
carried and left those many years ago;
never since has the fiercest storm
that has beaten upon that coast driven
before it a tide half so great as was
that memorable and providential one.
WHO GOT THE PAT.
At the sessions of the State Senate
Committee which is investigating the
municipal affairs of Philadelphia last
week, considerable evidence was given
in regard to the alleged failure to "in
cinerate garbage and keep the streets
in repair as required by law, but the
most interesting witness was Thomas
Warren. He was employed us a
laborer on city bridge work, was
named on the pay roll as receiving $j
per ?ay, but the highest pay he ever
received, he stated was $2 per day.
lhe witness declared that when he
receipted (or his wages toe amount
in the warrant was always covered
over. Warren further stated that two
lads named McKee, who were also
employed in the same gang, and who
were named on the pay roll as receiv
ing $3 per, day received $5 per week.
1 redenck II. Ron, also a laborer
employed on city bridge work, whose
wages were given as $3 a day, testifi
ed that he received but $1.50 per day
and ' street car fare.
The Committee adjourned until
Tuesday, December 3.
