the evening ho told of the llfi
and !
characteristics of Sam Hobert, of Bos
ton, who was converted several years
ngo. During his talk last evening he
took occasion to say some things along
the line of the text, from I Timothy,
vl:f, "But godliness with contentment
Is great gain."
Dr. Fulton said: "Christianity mnkes
business. Co nnywhero they have
Christ and there you'll find men and
women who are true. In this country
we have no conception of the condi
tion of affairs. South Africa Is like a
bucket without a bottom, but tho
thought of the world Is turning to
Africa. I am In utter nnd entire sym
pathy with England In their light with
the Boers, nnd wherever the English
Jack floats the flag of Jcub Christ Is
risen and Christianity Is admitted.
"The religion of Jesus Christ edu
cntes th? Ignorant and Is doing It
every dav. There Is no real eontmt
mnt without the gospel. A man that
cm have .Testis Christ In his heart can
have a mighty good time In this world.
He can have contentment and com
fort. The gi-and"st thing In the world
Is to be tip and dressed early Sunday
morning for Ood's work. The religion
of Jesus Christ want? men to go into ,
the wilderness, eut down trees and
build them into houses for Christ.
"Tho world needs Jesus Christ and
there is no mm more popular thnn
the master. God wants men who will
be true to Him, who will talk to their
neighbors rnd tell them of God."
David Stephens sang an appropriate
solo, which was very effective. Dr.
Fulton will lecture at tho church on
Wednesday evening on "General
Grant."

All the novelties of the season
will be found represented in our show

cludes every variety of gloves for

able shades for matching or contrast.
A Word on Gloves
Being by far the largest dealers
in gloves in this end of the state, we
desire simply to say that there is not
a well known glove on the market
today that is pot at our command, if
we wish to handle it. This being
the fact, it follows as a matter of
course that we take what we con
sider the very best from the many
offerings, and let the others go.
That's the reason why we maintain
" " our supremacy in the glove trade.

with inflammation and hemorrhages

the Day Is Over," by the full choir. A
responsive scripture reading from the
Psalter was then given by the pastor
and the congregation.

rendered by tho choir and proved to bo
the most delightful of any of thoso

1 emphasized the fact that there was
not a single American citizen, whether
I native or foreign born, In this country
I at the present time who has not abund
I ant occasion to thank God for the gifts

sleep and for the sense of hearing.
These blessings are possessed by tho
great majority of men and they should
ho accordingly thankful.
