The death of Rev. A. J. Kyni'tt.whieh
occurred rorently, has made vacant
the olllce of senior corresponding sec
retary of the board of church exten
sion of the Methodist Episcopal church.
The president of the board Is Bishop t
D. Foss. It has been decided to defer
action on lining the vacancy until the
general conference to be held In Chi
cago In May, 1900. The other corre
sponding secretary, Dr. W. A. Spencer,

The Women's association of the First
Congregational church of Detroit has
adopted a resolution favoring the re
moval of hats at every church service.
The Initial movement was made last
Sunday, when two young women re
moved their hats so that persons back
of them might see a former pastor.who
had returned for the day. This action
was warmly commended after the ser
vice and a request was read that the
custom of removing hats be at once
.tarted. The action of the Women's
association was the result. The decis
ion is a sensible one.
A summer school of theology Is to be
opened next July at Harvard. The aim
of the school Is "to provide a place
where clergymen nnd divinity students
mav gather for the study of subjects
which may have Intrinsic and current
theological Interest, and where they
may feel the inspiration which comes
from direct contact with the best and
most recent results of modern scholar
ship." The courses to be offered will
be on the Old Testament, church his
tory and theology. Fifteen lectures will
be d&llvered In each, besides occasional
ovenlng lectures. The work for the
summer of 1900 will be In the New Tes
tament, homlletlcs and the compara
tive study of religions. The success of
the school Is fairly assured by the list
of instructors offered: From Harvard
there will be Profs. C. C. Everett, C.
H. Toy, G. II. Palmer. D. G. Lyon, J.
W. Platner and J. II. Ropes. From
other institutions there will bo Prof.

cal seminary, and Prof. Mitchell, of the

In order to celebrate the close of this

CURES WITHOUT PAIN.
Ono of the Best Features of the New
File Cure.
The Pyramid Pile Cure cures nil
forms of piles without ono particle
of pain. This desirable point Is not ob
tained by the use of injurious opiates
which simply deaden and paralyze the
nerves of the parts and make matters
worse In the long run.' But it Is done
solely by its remarkable healing and
soothing effects.
And while It thus gives immediate
relief, at the same time the disease Is
not merely checked, but a radical cure
Is rapidly accomplished.
And the point we want to make clear
Is that all this Is done without a par
ticle of pain.
This fact Is one great reason for the
popularity of the Pyramid Pile Cure
nnd constitutes one very great differ
ence between It and almost anv other
kind of treatment for piles.
Every kind of surgical operation for
Piles Is excruciatingly painful besides
tndangerlng the life of tho patient und
In most cases is not to bo compared
with the Pyramid Cure, neither In
making successful cures without pain
nor in cheapness nnd safety.
The Pyramid Pile Curo has been be
fore tho public so long, and its merits
recognized by too many people to allow
it to be classed with tho many salves,
suppositories, pills, etc., and you run
no risk in trying It, as is often the
case with untried preparations.
If you are ever troubled with any
form of piles or rectal disease do not
forget the Pyramid Pile Cure. Pre-

Increase ithe circulation of the army's
paper by $70,000 nnd to raise $350,000.
The money Is to be given to General
Booth "to be used In such work and
fashion as he In his wisdom may think
desirable."
