delegate to the State convention, and
Miss Stevenson of Oil City dologate to
tho International convention. Ono of the
ploasing features of tho busiuess meeting
was tho culling of the roll by the Secre
tary, Mr. Small. Tionesta reported
oiglit. The largest delegations outside of
tho Oil City churchos wore from the
Presbyterian churches of Franklin and
Titusvillo. s
Rev. Mr. Stovonson of Titusvllle was
the speaker of the evening. His subject
was: "Some Civil Dangers and Some
Chrlstiau Duties." Mr. Stevenson bo-
lieves there aro civil dangers ahead which
should be shown to the Christiuu people
of our land, and which concern us as
members of tho church. If the church
of Christ is to help the oppressed of our
land, the help should not be postponed
to tho other world. Christ did not for
got that men hunger for bread before
they hunger for spiritual food, and so
Christ should outer into our temporal af
fairs. Mr. S. believes that the diseon
content, tho mad dosire for r.chos, is the
root of all evil iu our land. Not that he
condemns wealth or commends poverty,
but that he looks to their origin. The
power to obtain weultli, if used solely
aud wholly to obtain more wealth, is
abused. It fosters covetousuess. Christ
foresaw this evil and personified the pas
sionate desire for wealth as "Mammon,'
or tho Money god. Ho warned his fol
lowers against this danger when he said
'Ye cannot serve God and Mammon.'
Mr. S. believes that our present compet
itive system of business is a great evil
As war was good some timo past, and hud
its play in tho evolutiou of society, so
competition must give way to some
method less barbarous and uuIUhIi. What
shall take its placet Any system that
undermines the morals ot another shook!
be abolished.
The church of Christ ought to cut this
Gordiuu knot of Mammon aud let il
worshipers go back to the devil, their fa
thor. Tho worldly doctrine, "Every
man for himself ami tho devil take the
hindmost." should bo replaced by some
thiuir more Clirilike. There is suuh
a separation between the working
of bruins and the working of bauds as to
cause lucntul degeneration and disoon
tent. This discontent does not arise be
cause they aro ill-fed and ill-clothed, but
because their worth is undervalued. The
worth of tho employed everywhere
should not be measured by what thoy do
but what they can do.
There is u euro for our civil ills pro
scribed by our Savior in ilis primitive
doctrine of love, a simple cure, and is
contained iu those two sentences : "Bear
ye one another's burdens," aud, "A now
commandment I give unto you, that ye
love one another." W.iou this doctrine
animates the employer and employed,
we shall havo reached thu panacea for
every ill. "Then shall Hie earth bo fulj
of tho knowledge of the Lord as the wa
ters cover the sea." All visionary
Utopia shall vanish and we will live in
atmosphore of brotherly kindness. The
keynote of all is love. Love will
break down tho barrier between the rich
and poor; will bridge the gulf across
whose ever-widening chasm both em
ployer and employed are eyeing each
other while thoy forget the universal
brotherhood of man. After music by
the choir, and benediction, the officers
and dolegates presont were served with
sherbert and cake in the basement story
of the church. At the executive meeting
which followed, it was agreed that an af
ternoon session be held in connection
with the evening session herealtor.
When we consider that the intestines
are about five times as long as the body,
we can realize tbe intense suffering ex
perienced when they become inflamed.
