"I neverjielt so near my grave,"
writes VV. R. Patterson, of Well
ington, Tex., as when a frightful
cough and lung trouble pulled me
down to 100 pounds, in spite of
doctor's treatment for two years.
My father, mother and two sis
ters died of consumption, and
that I am alive today is due sole
ly to Dr. King's New Discovery,
which completely cured me. JNow
I weigh 187 pounds and have been
well and strong for years. ''Quick

meetings will be deeply devotion

sayings of the Cross will be stud
led each night to prepare us for
