"Before I took Tanlac I had to take a

Mollie Newlin, who resides at 2430 1

CHURCH WILL MEBTISE
El CDE BOARD SETS ASIDE
SEVERAL HUNDRED DOLLARS
Kew Pastor of First Christian Church
Firm Believer in Efficacy of
Publicity Campaign.
EUGEN-E. Or, Sept. (. (Special.) A
iuna or several hundred dollars h
been set aside by the official board of
tne irst Christian church of this city
lor advertising auring tne coming year.
The advertising campaign will begin
October 1. At a meeting of the board
tnis week a plan was outlined by Dr.
E. V. Stivers, pastor of the church.
which was adopted and a committee of
local business men was appointed to
have charge of the expenditure of the
money, under the supervision of the
pastor.
Ir. Stivers came to this city last Feb
ruary from Stockton. Cat. where he
bunt up a large church, and great em
phasis was placed on advertising as i
means to bring this about. At the pres
ent time he holds membership with the
Stockton Advertising club, and while
a resident there was very active In this
organization.
"I am a firm advocate of church ad
vertising," said Dr. Stivers. "It has al
ways brought the desired results wher
ever it has been tried and I know that
there is no better way to reach the
public than by this means. There is a
dignity about sane advertising that is
in keeping with the work of the church,
and certainly the need of placing the
gospel Derore the community in a sen
sible businesslike way is evident. Too
long business and Christianity have
been separated, but the day is hers
when business should be infused Into
the methods of the church."
Since coming to Eugene Dr. Stivers
has been advertising in a small way
and he says the results have been ex
cellent. The congregation has paid a
$25,000 debt on the church and every
department is growing, according to
the pastor. Not only does Dr. Stivers
believe that advertising will bring the
desired results in church attendance
and Increased interest, but that finan
cially it is a success.
"If results come to the business man
through this medium." says the clergy
man, "it will also come to the church,
for the church of all institutinos has
something worth while to present to
the public Publicity through the
newspapers will attract the attentton
of the people toward the house of God.'

Skulls of Three Magi Seen in
Cologne Cathedral.
Alleged Relics at Savior's Birth Kx
albited to Americans.
COLOGNE. Aug. 18. (Correspond
ence of the Associated Press.) A
British army chaplain celebrated mass
recently In the great Cologne cathedral
at the altar of the relics of the Magi,
the skulls of the three wise men who
came from the east to visit the newly
born Savior at Bethlehem. A number
of American officers and men from the
Coblens area attended the services, and
were permitted to view the relics.
Tradition says that the Empress
Helend procured the bones and took
them to C6nstantinople, whence they
were removed to Milan. In 1164 they
were presented by Frederick Barba
rossa to Archbishop Relnald von Das-
set, who brought them to Cologne. At
first they were kept in the chapel of
the Magi, the central chapel of the
seven flanking the choir, but since the
war they have been put away in the
cathedral treasury, near the organ.
The bones are kept in a golden
reliquary, a costly specimen of Roman
esque craftsmanship in the form of a
basilica, said to have been made about
1200 A. D. In the Cologne coat of arms
three crowns are represented, the Magi
rllcs have suggested the design.

It-' 1 ' -KVi:
the alleged killing of Mrs. Smith by an
automobile last November, returned a
verdict in favor of the defendant. The
case was tried in Circuit Judge Ganten
beln'e court and attracted much atten
tion because of the fact that it was
based upon evidence similar to that
submitted when Mr. Sorenson was
charged with manslaughter and ac
quitted. Final instructions to the jury were
given by Judge Gantenbein yesterday
morning and an hour later the verdict
was brought into court.-
Ray Schermerhorn, brother of Mrs.
Smith, and administrator of her estate,
brought the suit against Mr. Sorenson
In behalf of the estate and the three
minor children, the youngest four years
of age and the oldest 14. Two points
n the testimony were vigorously con
tested. One was the allegation of the
plaintiff that the defendant drove the
car that killed Mrs. Smith on Oak
street last November. The other was
the contention of the defense that Mrs.
Smith was guilty of contributory
negligence in not exercising proper
caution in crossing the street.
Ralph Wilbur conducted the case for
the defense and John A. Collier and
Henry Collier represented the plaintiff.
Their arguments were presented Friday
afternoon.
Testimony presented by the plaintiff
was almost identical with that adduced
at the former trial of Mr. Sorenson.
when the jury failed to find the cir
cumstantial evidence sufficient to con
vict. The same witnesses were called
in the damage suit, and in the interim
following the criminal action no new
evidence had been discovered.
