mill t hi- fullest apology wiim made for
the Injury done, mid ut tin- sumo tlnus
fully .instilled .Mr. Davis's action In
UllliUtflluillK his PCI'SHUttl rights.
In ri'ply .Mr. On vis spoke utrotiKly on
the evil of ullouiiiK sui'h worldly mai
lers lo Interfere In any way with the
iniiiiiiKnuient of the ehureli, showing
how Impossible It is for any ehureli to
svc'ecd where sin h Inline mes lirevall.
Jle hl.itnl Unit lie had not the slightest
"elnf i I anlnioslty towards any por
suii In ilie eliureh, but that he would
on no tieeoitnt luhor in a ehureli where
.iiiythin. of this kind Is permitted. In
i'lisvcr to this they Immediately nave
.hei- lullest assuianee. that mieli thing
should neer again oeeiir and urgently
pressed Mr. D.ivles to reeonslder his
deeisloii, bringing as arguments the
marked success whleh had attended
the ehureli slnee his advent among
them anil the widespread feeling of sor
row prevnilliiK iu the ehureli and
neighborhood at the thought of his de
parture. In view ol such importuning Mr. le
vies was at last prevailed upon to
withdraw his resignation, whleh was
o lake off eel at the elose of his nas
oral year, April :'.U. Jt'OL. This leaves
mutters just as they were previous to
Mr. Da vies' resignation.

These days. There's so much to write about, and so little space to
say it in.
But why should we burden you with a long -rigmarole these
days? The store is nn open promenade while the holiday trade lasts.
Come nnd go as you please. You'll always be welcome, and five
minutes spent on oux- great main floor is worth much more to you
than an hour's reading.
For instance, ns you enter the- Annex door, you pass an elegant
show of fine Tnble Linens, rich and fashionable Silks, fancy Dress
Goods, and a world of Dolls, Bric-a-Brac, Games, Etc., and arrive
among the
Silk Waists
and Dressing Sacques
They occupy much space and the collection is superb ns to var
iety and styles, but they're light-priced and easy to purchase.
The Great
Cloak Stock and Furs
Ides only a few steps away, and, as it happens, the holiday trade
just comes in as wo feel we ought to begin to unload goods of this
class; there are many bargain tid-bits that are sure to make friends
for us.
The Handkerchief
Stock Is Bewildering;
To somo people because of its magnitude, but that needn't worry
you, if you only glve'ii hint about the price you would liko to pay.
Leather Goods
and Fancy Needlework
Aro attracting much attention this season. So is the perfumery and
toilet requisite stock. Reason they're new departments and prices
nro keen.
The Publishers'
Trade Book Sale
Is the talk of the book loveis throughout the valley. The cata
logue list is still complete, and the bargains are just as great as
ever.
The- Book Store is back near the Cloak Department.

speech. The president of the. board of
trustees accepted gracefully the timely
gift complimenting the young people

Which Are Rapidly nnklnea New
Cntarrlt Cure Famous.
Smart's Catarrh Tablets, the new
( iilitrrh euro has the followliiK atlvan
Iiibcm over other catarrh remedies.
First: These tablets contain no co
caine, morphine or any oilier Injurloitn
driiR- and are as safe and beiiollclal ior
children as for mlulls: this Is an Im
portant point when It Is recalled that
many catarrh remedies do contain those
very objectionable liiKiedlents.
Next: Helii", In tablet form this rem
edy docs not delerloiate with iiro. or
an exposure to the air as liquid prep
arations Invariably do.
Xext! The tablet form not only lire
serves the medicinal properties but It
Is so far more convenient lo carry and
to use at any time that It Is only n
question of time when the tablet will
entirely supersede liquid medicines as
It has" already done In the medical de
partment of the United States army.
Next: No secret Is made of the com
position of Stuart's Catarrh Tablets:
they contain the active principles of
lOucalyptus hark, red gum, blood root
and Ilyilrastln, all harmless antisep
tics which, however, are death to ca
tarrhal KcritiM wherever found, because
they eliminate them from the blood.
Next: You can not cure catarrh by
local applications to the nose und
throat, because these are simply local
symptoms and such treatment can not
possibly reach the real scat of catarrh
al disease which In In the blood: for
this reason, Inhalers, douches, sprays
and powders never really cure catarrh,
but simply kIvo temporary relief which
a dose of plain salt and water will do
Just as well.
Catarrh must be driven out of the
system, out of the blood, by an Internal
remedy because they contain every
safe specific known to modern science
In the antiseptic form of the disease.
Xext: The use of Inhalers, and
sprayhiK apparatuses, besides beliiR- in
effective and disappointing, Is expen
sive, while a complete treatment of
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets can bo bad
at any drus- store In the United States
and Canada for i"0 cents.
