IN THE RELIGIOUS WORLD . -- Paragraphs of News of Interest to Church-Going People GOOD AND BAD CHURCH SHOWS Somethtaf Instructive and Intemuog is Proper Evidences Shown by Theaks giviag Sorrloes-St. Luke's ew Mis- , ston at Oljrphant-Short Notes. The recent cantata, "Visitors From 'All Nations," presented by the younger Sunday school scholars of Kim Park church,- offers food for thought to those intersted in church work and estecially those who seek to exclude from the list of church entertainments that which is improper and to encourage that which is good and instructive. In the selec tion of what are popularly styled "church entertainments" two objects are usually conspicuous; the entertain ment must be entertaining and It must not fall within the pale of what Is meant by "theatrical." These require ments were met in the "Visitors From All Nations." The cantata was what Its title im plied, a visitation to the United States by two representatives, usually a boy and a girl, from each of Europe's na tions and China and Japan. Kach lit tle delegation recited and sang as it entered upon the stage why it wns glad to come to a government so blest as that of the United States, and at the same time recited and sang something about its own native country. The del egations were received by six older girls representing the United States. When all were gathered together, dressed in the native costumes of many countries and (tarrying those countries' flags, the result was at once pleasing, innocent and instructive. Such is what appears to be the essence of a god "church en tertainment," and If there were mure of them there would be greater satis faction and less crying out against "desecrating" and "degenerating"' by the use of means under, the guise of "for the benefit of the church." An Evidence of Christianity. Thanksgiving Day and all that went with It in the way of service and enter tainment seemed to have overshadowed everything else in the churches during the week. But what was lacking on the other days was counterbalanced Thurs day by the outpouring to attend the many services throughout the city and jny the services themselves. In each section of the city where the Congregations united in a common wor ship it was noticed that the attendances were larger than, probably, on any pre vious Thanksgiving Day. The services were not more elaborate, but the w-eather seemed to have been manufac tured to order and this may have-in a measure been responsible for the large audiences. But whether the balmy air or attractive services was responsible for the outpouring, the fact remains that the churches were tilled and a further evidence existed that Scranton Is a Christian, city, occupied by Chris tian people, and this token offered en couragement to the ministers and church officers. Now Mission of St. Luke's. St, Luke's Episcopal church contin ues to extend its mission, work as noted in the following extract from the cur rent number of St. Luke's Church man: "St. Luke's has again reached out and taken hold upon a place of vantage for establishing the church and preaching the Gospel in our own community. Church people at Prlceburg, Olyphunt and Peckvllle have long sought to have services held at some accessible central point. Two years ago the rector, with a committee of his men, drove over the ground, but could not see his way clear to a beginning promising con tinuance, as we all know it is the cus tom of St. Luke's parish to carry through whatever it undertakes. Hut recently with the rapid advance of the Dunmore mission under the Itov. Mr. Urban, it was found necessary to grant this mission more services and thus to encourage it to look forward to an early Independence of parish aid. In doing this it was suggested by the Key. Mr. Urban that the time may come when advantage might be taken of a mission at Olyphunt to advance the day of Independence for Dunmore by uniting the two places, whose joint sup port might soon suffice for a clergy man. After careful consideration it was decided to make the attempt. Mr. Urban made a round of pastoral calls and ended by opening services In Ed ward's hall, Blakely street, the twenti eth Sunday after Trinity (Oct. 27) at 3 o'clock with a good attendance and ev ery prospect of earnest interest and de votion on the part of tho community. Services are now held regularly every Sunday afternoon at 3 o'clock and will be conducted either by the Rev. Mr. Urban of the rector. The expenses of this mission are met by its own congre gation.

MET IN PENX AYE M E CHURCH Morning, Afternoon and Evening Ses sions Were Held-Delegates to the 'ombcr of 250 Were In Attend anceMany Clergymen Present. A great gathering of young Christian workers was assembled In this city yesterday at the semi-annual conven tion of the Trl-County Christian En deavor union held morninz, afternoon and evening in Penn Avenue Baptist church. There were upwards of 200 present; no registration was made, but all who came were welcomed warmly and received as delegates. It was real ly an enthusiastic rally for the state convention of next year with which Scranton will be honored. Representatives from all the En deavor societies of Northeastern Penn sylvania were there and the reception of them was In charge of the com mittee of '96. Many of the local clergy men snent a few hours with the dele gates and contributed to make the oc casion a beneticinl one by their spirit ual encouragement. The convention was called to order at 10 o'clock by the president. J. C. Manning, of Plttston. The other of ficers are: Vice president. 8. S. Hoov er, Upper Lehigh; treasurer A. W. Brlttaln. Freeland: secretary. Charles E. Daniels, Scranton: executive com mittee. Rev. C. H. Newing, Dalton; J. W. Browning, Scranton; J. J. Park hurst, Wllkes-Barre. A tiraise and prayer service was the onening exercise, led by Charles H. Chandler, of this city. Then Secre tary Daniels, who is chairman of the committee of '96. welcomed the dele gates. Mr. Manning, the chairman, re sponded and promised that the Trl County union will do whatever lies In its power to assist In preparing for the reception to the state delegates. Prayer Meeting Conducted. Rev. C. H. Newing conducted prayer meeting, the topic being, "Is My Heart Right With God?" He introduced this service with fervent language and numerous testimonies were heard from the delegates. Rev. W. O. Watklns, pastor of the North Main Avenue Baptist church, preached the conven tion sermon, and his discourse was founded on the text: "And I, if I be lifted up, will draw men unto ine." Christ, said he. draws men toward Hhn by exerting the divine power to touch the hearts of the people. After a person's real being Is once filled with the glow of grace from the omnipotent God, It Is easy to approach the Savior nnd do that which is acceptable to His will. , Prior to adlourning at noon Presi dent Manning appointed the following committee on resolutions: Kev. ftir. Erdman, Wllkes-Barre; Miss Mary A. Shook, Tunkhannock; William H. Gordon, Taylor; F. M. Routon, Scran ton fim 1 Miss Marv Gardner. Dalton. Dinner was served by the Utiles of the elmreh tn the lecture room. The afternoon session was begun with praise service led by Charles H. rhnmllnr. of this citv. A promise meet ing was next held nnd was led by Treasurer Brlttaln. who read from the Rcrinturos and offered prayer, after hi,), the delegates sane in grand con cert the insuring hymn, "8tand Up for Jesus." Rev. D. M. Klnter next led in prayer and the hymn "True-Heart ed. Whole-Hearted." was sung. Rev. S. J. Arthur, of Plttston, gave an address on Bible study and Im pressed on his hearers the necessity of learning God's holy word. His fervent recommendations for Btudylng the Scriptures were highly edifying and productive or mucn goou. Tonic of Attornov T. F,' Wells. Attorney Thomas F. Wells, of this rtlve and energetic Endeav- orer. was Introduced and spoke briefly r thn o-.-ont value to be derived by the community at large from gatherings of Christian workers.

Over IGO.000, had been ex lo.l nrpunrins for the battle between two human brutes, and not one word of protest was neara until tne anurav orers went to the governor and that put an end tn the disgraceful arrair. Miss Mnrraret Morgan, of Wllkes- Porrp. Hnnke on social benefits from Christian gatherings. She said that In the arduous preparation for the public meetings of a state convention and the leen interest which Is centered therein. Endeavorers are apt to lose sight of the Influence emanatlngfrom such a gather ing of young people. But the influence of a convention is not measured by tho exertions made in bringing tne conven tion to a citv. Just as potent is tne per sonal contract and the social presence of the delegates. The mere presence of thousands of young Christians from an mi it of the state exerts a great Influ ence. They are an exemplification of the fact that these young people are. In terested In and enthusiastic enough con cerning Christian work to travel hun dreds of miles and to spend time and money to receive instruction ana spir itual fire In order that the societies which they represent may be better able to keep step with the march or progress, The c tv of Scranton. saiu Miss Mor gan, prides itself on being a Christian community and yet there are. perhaps. thousands who know little or nothing of the organization of Christian Endeav or. She would be pleased to see a state convention brought to Wllkes-Barre, Just for the sake of enlightening the people as to Its numbers. A great deal has been said nnd written about the Impression the last Teat international convention left on the city of Boston. At' a state convention sociability is 11 66 99 ron Foot Ball.

Among the benefits which are to be derived are: The influence which the social presence of the con vention will have upon the community at large. Some will be impressed by what the Endeavorers do and say. It is' needless to say that the liquor dealer do not belong to the latter class. The social benefits drifts unto the spiritual for whatever elevates society will have tendency to emnhaslxe the spiritual part of persons' natures. vice president Hoover spoke on tne spiritual benefits accruing from relig ious gatherings. He Joined the Chris tian Endeavor union because he was uplifted by Its noble Influences and he Is ready to assert that every person who wishes to accept Chrlstlnn -principles will derive an inestimable amount of benefit spiritually. A few moments were spent in silent prayer and the hymn, "Alas,and Did My Savior Bleed," was sung. Rev. T. A. Mills, pastor of Memorial church, Wllkes-Barre. gave an address on Christian Endeavor and the church. The union, he said, ex'ists for a definite purpose; it exists for the church. The individual membership is for the soci- ety.because the society is for the church and the church is for Christ The prin ciples of Christian Endeavor are per sonal to the Individual. It is a training school, but it does not, set up any new theories; it. only emphasizes those that already exist. Rev. A. J. Welslev. of Avcca. deliver ed a rousing address on enthusiasm. He urged all 'Christian Endeavorers t be enthusiastic without being fanatical and that imbued thus they will accom- pusn untold good. A consecration ser vice was led by Rev. C. W. Harvey, of Plymouth, after which the session ad journed until 7.45 in the evening. Tho Kvcnlng Session. The evening service was notieenhlA for the large number present. The opening exercise was a praise service of much spiritual Interst. Rev. W. H. stubblebine. pastor of Calvary Re formed church, delivered an address on "Scranton. '96." He treated the sub ject from the standpoint of the bene clal results that will follow from the congregating of thousands of Christian workers here. He urged the members of tho Trl- County union to make the most of the grand opportunity that comes to them with the cares of this convention. It Is going to be a profitable season for the exercise of their energies that the work of the Master may be accom plished. Rev. J. N. Makely. of Brooklyn, Sus quehanna county, gave the concluding address of the convention. His subject was "The Acquisition and Use of Spiritual Power." The eloquent cler gyman spoke on this thought In a most edifying manner. He said that it Is Incumbent on all persons to make the best use of the eraces and benefactions bestowed by the Savior to them thatf they may help others less favored. He commended the work of the Christian Endeavor union as a potent factor in church work. MUSICAL MISCELLANY.

But Those who are Sick cate Subject, but Truth not A Plain Talk, Backed up ; J sible way out of the Afflicted Woman Should Read. ICXOW THYSELF. From the Kra, Bradford, Pa. Too- few people are acquainted with the rapid advance of medical science, and too many doctors are still plodding the old paths. Once it coincs to pasrthat people know themselves, that all physicians are abreast of the world's knowledge, much of our suffering will come to ha end. Medical scientists are not delving into the depths of knowledge for tho mere benefit bf brother physicians, but for the benefit of the World. They place in tho hands of the well man a means of keeping well, in the hands of tho sick a means of recovery. To the parent they give tho power of saving tho child. Science is working for you will you accept the proffered help T Mrs. George 'Rowond, an estimable lady who resides at Xo. 27C East Main Street, Bradford, Fa., has . cause to feel grateful towards the science of medicine. One day recently a reporter, learning that Mrs. Rowcnd had becu greatly benefited by the use of a now medicine, Interviewed her. She stated that the had been suffering with a female trouble for many years. She had been doctored for 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 sggravuted 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. Kowend, "but one day lust fall I read an article in a newspaper which told of the cures effected by Dr. Williams' Pink Tills, and 1 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 ino for so ninny years began to disap pear, and the action of the heart at once became stronger and morercgulnr. " I took nine boxes of the pills and I am now feeling better thnn I have for several years, uud I have unbounded faith in the medicine." Mrs. Rowend will now be able to ride her bicycle, if she wishes, without dnnger to her health, a thing which was impossible before her use of Pink Pills. A 8TORY OF PECULIAR IXTEREST TO WOSXEX.

I have been, married twenty-one years nnd am the mother of eight child ron. About two years ago I was uillietcd with troubles incidental to my sex and suffered ngonizinppnin. Thetrotihleccntinued togrowworse,until ln.it wintcrl wns compelled to take to my bed. I railed in a regular physl cian, but his treatment did not seen to do ma much good and only relieved me for s liltls time, atlcr which my condition became won than before. I was confined to my bed for thrts months and was absolutely unable to attend to my household duties. 1 could hardly feed my sejf, so weak had I become. I hod to be.wultedl upon day and night and was a physical wreck. There was very grave doubts about my-ultlinuts recovery. The best hope the doctor could hold out to me was that I might be able to get around again and attend to my household duties after remaining in bed s lew months longer. Wit instead ot getting oetter 1 grew steadily worse, tine day 1 happened tn read in the :ier alxnit Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for 'nle r eopie nnd deemed to give tnem a triui. ininediiitelr utter taking them And before I had used hull' a box I saw a mnrkedchange for the better in my condition. All this time, however, 1 was eon lined to my neil. i continued taking the medicine until I had used four boxes, and by that time I was nhlo to be about and around again. The improvement bus been steady ever since. I nm still a little weak, but nm grow ing stronger as f:it ua nature, aided by Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, will let me. 1 have great fuitliinthcscpillsumlslmll use theni hereafter. My husband, who felt real mireralile all the spring, took them nnd they made a new man of him. I have ulso used tliein for my daughter aged nineteen years, who has found them very benefieiul fur troubles incidental to her sex. So fur as I nin myself concerned, I consider it a wonderful cure." Mrs. tiates hns lived in North Muine for many years and is highly respected. Any statement she makes is cheerfully acquiesced in by her friends and acquaintances. The forccoing is but two of many wonderful cures that have been credited to Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People. Diseases which heretofore have bee s supposed to be incurable, such as locomotor ataxia and paralysis succumb to this wonderful medicine as readily as the most trifling ailments. In many cusps the re ported cures have been investigated by tho leading newspapers and verified in every pos sible manner, and in no ease has the least semblance of fraiid been discovered. Their fame has snrcad 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 contuin, in s con densed form, all the elements neceisnrv to give new life und richness to the blood ana restore shattered nerves. They are an unfailing specific for such diseases as locomotor utaxia, 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 weukness either in male or female.
