XI 4! tSJ-' 1 . . & TO 4ti. GROWTH OF DENOMINATIONS. Tlin fcrcemlty mill Itilttirtnnv of .Iiitp nlle OhrlKtinn Training. Tiik Dali.kh, April 17, 1001. ; To (tiik HniTou : j Tin' Independent gives the stutietica of thu churches for the year 1900. By Tar the largest gain has been unions the Lutherans. They como first with 9V OOOjy tho Methodists come second with 52.000; the Disciple? of Christ, or Gamp bellites, third, with H'.'.OOO; the Episco palian" fourth, with almost 17,000; the Fro8byterinns filth, with about i:i,000; while the Baptist, ranking second in fiizo, have gained only about 5,000. The percentaue of gain iB as follows: Luth erans .0o0; Disciples .028; Episcopali ans .26; Methodists about .009; Presby terians about .008. flow does Elder .1. B. Lister's state ment, in his sermon last night at the Christian church, that his denomination hart made greater progress, so far as ad dition of members is concerned, than all the other denominations taken together, auree with tho figures given above? The corresponding secretary of the Ore gon Christian Missionary Convention evidently, like manv others, knowe very little about the doings of churches out side of his own in this country. This is the only way we can explain some of his utterances last night. Growtli and great prosperity is not something of which the church represented by Elder Lister can boast as peculiar to itself. There has been great progress in all the Protestant bodies; the percentage of increase in the last ten years beint 113, larger than that of the population of the tt..!....i o. .... 1 1 ... m u 11 lieu ctaies, nint'ii was uuiv -i per cent. It is manifest from this tiiat in spite of all infidel declarations to the contrary, the church is grandly moving on and steadily increasing in growing prosperity and power, Of the work and achievmenta of some churches peo ple hear comparatively little, not be cause they 3re not doing anything, but because they do it quietly and witli very little flare of trumpets. Another fact the church statistics of the last year should impress on the minds of Christians is the superiority of that evangelical system which trains up the youth of ttie land by steady steps into church membership. The bodiee whose accessions are least reliable are those that have no system of indoctrina tion. The denominations which have gained .ino3t in the past year are the Lutheran and the Episcopalian. The former, ac cording to the Independent, which is not a Lutheran paper either, and there fore may not be believed to say anything particularly favorable to that body un less it ba true, exceeded in memherB added the accessions of the other four largest denominations. These two de nominations are the ones that train their people from childhood to an intel ligent membership in the church. In churches where the catechism still holdB its place a 6ure and steady growth may be expected from year to year. In bodies where it has been neglected or forgotten growth is spasmodic and un certain. It is a most hopeful sign that this fact is beginning to be leahzed in quarters where years ago the catechism was little thought of. The Congregatioiialist speaks wisely when it says, "But no church will grow by accretions from without which does not expand by vigorous life from within. Its first duty is to train its own children to he intelligent Christians. The nor mal growth of the church through its Bied Quarts at a Time "I am aknife maker and'jvorked for a number of years in the New York Knife Co.'s factory at Walden, N. Y. First thing I knew I commenced to bleed from tne mouth. Sometimes as much as a quart of blood would come up from my lungs at a time. Every time I coughed the blood spurted out. It was in the inn 1 tjui.au uitu, uHuinocuurcu people told me I had better make my peace with tke Lord and prepare to die. for I would not live till spring My home doctor couldn't do me any got. J, but advised nie to get to New York City for examination. They finally took me to a med ical college, and a whole lot of physicians made what they called a diagnosis. There were several students looking on. One professor had a little ivory hammer, and with this he pounded my chest and held his ear close to listen. After a while the professor looked at me solemnly and declared: 'One of your lungs is about gone and the other is affected. There may be a slim chance lor life if you quit working in that knife factory.' I went back home, but didn't improve. One day I saw an advertisement of free samples of Acker's English Remedy for Consumption, being given away by our home drug gists, Walker & Eaton. I got one of (hese bottles, and it relieved me. Then I bought more of the regular size, and my improvement was continuous, although slow. My doctors were astonished and so was I. After dark I hated to spit, because I was afraid it might be blood, aud I wanted to know for sure. I have no fear now, for at last I am a solid man again. Although one lung is gone, the other is as sound as a dollar, aud answers as well as two lungs, so far as I can see. I want everyone to know the facts and that is why I tell them here," (Signed) A.
