After some further discussion the re
port of the committee was adopted, with
five dissenting votes.
D. Stuart Dodge of the temperance
committee made a report, which con
tained the following words: "That ses
sions allow the nse of nufermented
wines only at the communion table. It
is lamentable that many, who sorely
need the sustaining comfort of the
Lord's supper, are debarred because of
alcohol in the sacramental cup. The
adulterated compounds of modern com
merce should be banished from the or
dinance and their fumes no longer dese
crate the house of God."
This created considerable discussion,
in which Dr. Mullully said he liked a
good glass of wiue himself and drank it.
He thought it certainly should be used
at the communion table. It was finally
decided that the report should go out
only as a recommendation. New York

There are women who en mint tolemte

They Bhould nse these preciouB March

taking Paine's celery compound the
greatest of all spring remedies.
Miss Elsie M. Brown of 2 Leeds St.,
Dorchester, Mass., whose picture is
given above, wrote the 6th of this
month as follows:
"Ponr or five years ago, I suffered
with dreadful pains in my back (owing
to my kidneys), si muoh so that night
after night I oould not close my eyes,
and what few hours sleep I did get, I
oould be beard moaning and tossing,
showing that even in my sleep, I
suffered pain. At times I wonld have
more pain than usual over my left
hip? and when waking in the morning
it would be all I oould do to stretch
my limb down straight, as there would'
be a drawing and trembling of the
cords. Besides such torturo, I beitan
to bloat a great deal.
"After suffering for some time, a
friend advUed me to try Paine's celery
compound. I can truthfully say that
after using four bottles I was cored;
not helped, but cured."
If you have any doubt at all these
spring days about your health if neu
ralgio twinges, kidney troubles, dizzy
spells, indigestion or heart palpitation
show thomselves.don't wait for plainer
warnings. Make a clean sweep of all
these ailments from the system.
It ia easioBt to do this now, as spring
is approaohing. Take Paine's oelery
ooui pound when the system is most re
spousive to its cleansing, strengthen

An improved appetite, sound diges
tion, uninterrupted sleep, and an ener
getic condition, are the result of taking
Paine's oelery compound.
