Hpv. Luther Hess Waring, tho pastor
of tho church, Is arranging for a week's
Interdenominational service Immediate
ly following the day of dedication.
Hcprcscntiitlves of live leading denomi
nations of the city will preach, one
evening after another. Ah this new
building Is located on a corner that is
eight blocks away lu any direction from
any ulnar organized congregation of
any denomination holding services In
the English language, and is In a com
munity thut Is so desirable and build
ing up so fast, tho Interest of the en
tire community in this work can read
ily bo appreciated.
This is tho only Lutheran church In
the city that belongs to tho General
Synod, which was organized In 1820, and
is ono of tho oldest general bodies of
Lutherans in America. It was orxun
l7.cdon ri basis where It was believed
many different synods could meet on
common ground. It Includes today
about 1.C00 churches, with a member
ship of k'00,000. Not only as to language,
but also us to traditions, ritual, con
fession of faith, benevolent work', etc.,
It can be fairly termed the Ameri
can Lutheran church. Grace Lutheran
church is the only ono In the city, there
fore, among: tho Lutheran churches.

lire weeds. Unless
they are kept down,
they divert the nu
trition which the
hoil provides from
the growing crops and ruin their pro
ductiveness. Diseases are to the body what weeds
are to the soil. They divert the nutri
tion vthich is necessary to .sound health,
and the body, instead of being strong
nnd hardy, drags out a sickly existence.
When the stomach is diseased, uud the
other organs of digestion and nutrition
om involved with it, there is a constant
loss of nutrition liy the body. The stom
ache and its allied organs are not able to
convert the foods into nourishment, and
hence the body and its several organs are
deprived of the necessary elements of
vitality. "What is known as "weak"
.heart or "weak" lungs, "weak" nerves
and other forms of so-called weaknessrare
generally caused by "weak" stomach.
When the stomach and the other organs
of digestion and nutrition are cured, then
the other diseases are cured with it. Dis
eases which are caused by a diseased
condition of the stomach are cured
through the stomach. Dr. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery cures diseases
of the stomach and its associated organs
of digestion and nutrition. It cures
through the stomach diseases of heart,
lungs, liver and other organs. It in
creases the activity of the blood-making
glands, so that the whole body is nour
ished by un abuiidunt supply of pure
blood, rich iu the bright red corpuscles
of health.
There is no alcohol in "Golden Med
ical Discovery" and it contains neither
opium, cocaine, nor any other narcotic.
It is strictly a temperance medicine.
Persons suffering from chronic forms
of disease are invited to consult Dr.
Pierce by lctteiV'W. All correspondence
strictly private. Address Dr. R. V. Pierce,
Buffalo,, N. Y.
Suffered for Years.
"My gratitude to you oncl our'UoIden Med
Icnl Discovery' is ho great." writes Mr. Ross
Mnrtiu, of Artec, Mason Co.,Wcst Virginia, "that
1 tun at a loss to find words, to express my true
fceliiitr. I lind siuTcrcd for a number of vears
with luiignml throat troubles, mid doctored with
specialists, liut got no better. Then I decided
to try Dr. Pierce's Coition Medical Discovery,
and after using it I as greatly relieved, I have
all lullli that it has saved my life,
"I have one of our iuejhc.il books aud think
It a grand work."
TorpEtH Liver Cured
I was a Mtflerer from torpid liver lor ove,
i'ear," writes Mrs. Nora Willis, of Whe-utHeld,
asper Co., Jud., J'nncl could not sleep,, nor cat
ul very little, and'thcii it would cause me great
distress. I tried, several doctors but got no to
lief. Was mlvitetl by a friend to write to Dr.
rierse, which I did, aud In a few days I received
a letter advising me to take his Golden Med
ical Discovery' and also his 'I'leu.s.int I'ellels.'
After I had t.ckeu only hnlfu bottle I was greatly
Improved. I only took three bottles of the
' Golden Mrilical Discovery and two vials of the
relict.1 -and. thanks to Dr. I'iercc aud his
woiulerfll'mcdiclue, i am as. well us ever In my
lllfc. and feet that f'e is worth living ulle- all.
.'J,ast.wliiter I took a severe cold which re
sulted In pleurisy. Tongue can not tell what I
suffered, l-'or two nights und two days I could
not move without it nearly killed me, I told
my husband I could not endure another night at
cuKeriug, The weather was so cold aud stormy
that it was almost too bad for anyone to go six
tnites to town, but he weut. aud got a bottle of
lir Pierce's Extract of Smart -Weed, which gave
mi Instant iclief. I run sjy that for all pains
that I have tried it for it lias worked like magic.
Wc keep a bottle of the ' Smart .Weed ' In the
house all the time. I canuot thank Dr, fierce
enough for what he has done for me-'
Constipation has almost couuUess con

draco Lutheran church wan organized
In September, 1R01. On June 1, 189.",
Itov. Foster U. Gift look charge of the
work an tho first patitor. Herviees wore
held for a ypar In the old Young Men's
Christian association building, until
May, 1S9$, when the McJIIIInn property,
on the corner of Madison avenue and
Mulberry street, wa purchased and
tho frame dwelling house Homcwhat re
modeled to .answer tho purpose of n
temporary chapel. After four years of
hard and faithful service, Itov, Mr. Gift
resigned In the spring of 1S99, nnd was
succeeded Juno 1 by the present pastor.
Tho change In site was mrfdc for sev
eral reasons, tho mnln one being that
a church ought to be established whero
one Is needed. The future outlook for
the church is a bright one, and its
faithful and active members see the
outcome of their' faith und their labors
In tho beautiful new structure that Is
now so rapidly Hearing completion.
The new property Is costing this con
gregation about $18,000. Its architect Is
H. C. Rutherford, and its builder E. S.
Williams. E. D. Shopland has the sub
contract for the carpenter work. Charles
13. Scott has the contract for the steam
heating plant. William Rettli, of Phila
delphia, furnished the stained glass
windows. The Grand llaplds School
Furniture company furnishes the pews;
I. P. Frlnk, of New York, furnishes the
electric und gas light fixtures, nnd tho
Scranton Carpet nnd Furniture com
pany, the carpets, etc. The building
committee, from the congregation, con
sists of the pastor, llev. Luther Hess
Waring, James Matter and 13. L.
Fickes.
Christianity In Earnest gives the following-
concerning "Church Extension"
of the Methodist church In our new
possessions:
"liy largo donations recently paid
the Board of Church Extension has
aided in the erection and completion
without debt or a fine church In Hono
lulu, this being the second church thus
aided. Iu Porto Rico a church has just
been furnished with $2,000 of the $3,000
appropriated by the board for this pur
pose. In the Philippines four inex
pensive chapels have been built by the
aid of this board, and we have in hand
enough money specially contributed for
this purpose to aid in the erection of
ten more chapels. The natives are
eager to build these chapels and
churches If we can only furnish them
comparatively small amounts.
"A valuable building site In Manila
has been purchased, and wo hope that
the money the board holds for the
Charles Knox Memorial church to be
erectpd in Manila will secure the erec
tion of this memorial church on the
pui chased site."
The Sunday congregations at the All
Souls' Universalis!; church continue to
grow larger and larger, from week to
week, under the Inspiring ministrations
and preaching of the new pastor, Kev.
Thomas K. Payne. Within three months,
by count, the attendance has increased
125 per cent. A new Sunday school
singiiif,' book. "The Bright Light," has
recently been secured for tho school,
and was used for the first time Inst
Sunday. The Ladles' Aid society of
the church is busy these days making
ready for a two days' Easter sale,
March 19 aud 20, at which time their
many patrons will be glad to know,
they will serve ono of their famed
chicken suppers.

"Wealt, nervous, the dlgehtlon out of

from overwork or other entities, the
nerves aro burdened beyond endurance,
nerve ivusto is not replaced, neivo
force Is weiiUeucd, then thu stomach
loses Its lierve-eonlrolIluB power und
Indigestion follows, with fallliifr
strength. "When first T)r. A. Yv. Chase's
Nerve Vllls came to Scranton people
could hardly bo convinced that this
great medicine would remove theco
troubles. Now It is an accepted fact,
because of their euro of very stubborn
cases no other medicine would Influ
ence. Mrs, J. la. Johnson, of No. 720 North
Mulu stret, Scranton, I'a bays; "Dr.
A. W. Chase's Nerve nils nro excel

the stomach digested Its food badly.
This condition Induced 11 feeling of iie
blllty and lassitude. Hearing of the
nei've pills at Mathews Bros,, 320 Lack
awanna avenue, I got u bos, and the
result has certainly been, fine. They
gave the stomach strength to handle
the food properly, tho nervousness and
dizziness disappeared completely, n,ud
my generul strength and vigor re
turned. Consequently I am pleased and
glaij to recommend the medicine."
