over tlio years of labor ncr.ompllsho.d.
The choir, tinder tlio leadership of Prot.
I.owls Davis, lulidcred special linisln
fur the occasion. Large cotiRveKn lions
woie present at hoth the services.
The church has now a membership of
four hundred, and a Sunday school en
rollment of live hundred. Darius' the
past six years the Jackson street Hap
tlst church has made wonderful pi ok
ross In all departments of Chrlstlnt
work.
The bulldlnjy Is n. credit to the d
nomination, having been renovated In
side and out, and presents a beautll'ii'
appearance. The church Is composed
largely of younf? people nnd Is nil ug
grcslve body.
In the morning the pastor save a
resume of his six years' labors. Among
other things ho said:
T carao among you with fear and trem
bling, conscious of tlio groat opportunity
l be field afforded, and also conscious nf
ibo mnny difficulties tho Hold presented.
Thn groat debt oil tbe church was a
most discouraging burden, but f was
encouraged by tbe enthusiasm you man
ifested to face with you every known ob
ligation, and through faith nnd prnje-r
wo have turned difficulties Into grand
opportunities, so that to-day the Jack
son street Uapllst church need fear no
evil,
Few churches have accomplished more,
considering tho dtfllcuHIrn wo have been
called to overcome. To-day we may well
rejoice together nnd share tho blessing
and sucochs that have crowned these sis
years of labor.
Our prospects for the future are bright,
let your faith In Ood and in the church
keep your enthusiasm nurnlns bright.
"Let us consecrate ourselves to the de
mands of tho hour. Ood has always a
blessing for tho consecrated chut oh. I
know of no drearier spcetaolo than n
church upon whoe altars the. fire of
consecration baa gono out. Lost onthu
siusm, lost consecration, lost conviction,
means lost faith. Consecration dies
when tho llamo of faith expires.

Introductory Sermon.
lle. J. S. Wrightnour, V. D., the now
pastor of tho First Baptist church,
.South Main avenue, preached his Intro
duUory sermon yesterday morning to a
urge eongretrntlon, taking' his text
I'roni I Corinthians, siil-7: "Love
hopelh all things." The discourse was
attentively listened to, and Dr. Wright
nour made a very favorable impies-slon
on his hearers. He spoke, in part, aa
follows:
Tho most hopeful thing in all the world
Is care. A mother's lovo never dospahs
of tbe child Ood has given her, though
othois may, and do. They aro hopeless
ot any reform In him, and when he is
down thorn me plenty to give him a ltick.
Hut that Is because they do not lovo him,
as she does, for love hopotb all things.
Thuiu has boon caso after caso whero
love, pcisistent, unfaltering, has 10
deemed men from somo evil habit.
la then the lovo foolish wftich hopeth
all tblngb? The npostlo evidently did not
think so, or he would not have wiltten
this wondeifiil paen of praise of spiritual
lovo which should abldo when all other
gifts of tho early church should pass
away. Whut wo need then In undertaking
any oik for Christ Is to have a baptism
of lovo, to bo ovei whelmed in the won
derful, patient, hopeful lovo ot Clod.

N. M. EICKE SUCCESSFUL.
Induced Dr. Howard Company to
Make Special Price.
After ti great deal of effort and io---respondence,
N. M. Eioko, the popular
druggist, has succeeded in getting '.lie
Dr. Howaid company to make a spe
cial half-price introductory offer on the
regular fifty cent size of their cele
brated snecitlc for the cuie of consti
pation and dyspepsia.
This medicine is a recent dlsmvery
for the cine nt all diseases of the stom
ach and luiutW. It not only gives quick
lcliof, but it makes permanent cures.
Dr. Howard's specitic has been so re
markably successful In curim,' oustI
patlon, dyspepsia and all liver ttnublos,
that N. M. Eicke Is wllllns to 1 etui 11
the price paid In every case wnore it
docs not give relief.
The old-fashioned Idea of dosing with
mineral waters, cathartic pills or harsh
purgatives will soon be a thing of t he
past. The best physicians are pu scrib
ing Dr. Howard's specific because it
really gives tho desired results and on
account of the small and plc-asaitL dose
that is needed.
Headaches, coated tongue, dlzaincss,
gas on stomach, specks befoie the eyes,
constipation, and all forms of liver and
stomach trouble mo soon cured by this
sclentlllc medicine.
So gieat Is tlu demand for this hjit

EVERY WOMAN
longs for beauty. " If Nature has endowed
her with a bonny pleasing face she is a
fortunate woman. But no matter how
well formed the features may be, unless
the skin is clear and the complexion good,
beauty loses its charm. The complexion
depends on the health, if the health is bad
the complexion suffers. No remedy has
been found to equal BEECHAM'S
PILLS for regulating the general
health. They purify the blood, strengthen
and invigorate the digestive organs, give
