The King's Business
Over 100 have thus far confessed
Christ. The Spirit of God is wonder
fully prevading the meetings and de
cisions are being made at every
service. God la mightily evidencing
His power ta save men. Why should
not every man, woman and child in
Enterprise accept Christ as their
Savior ere these meetings close?
Without Christ you. are lost. "He that
hath the Son hath life; be that
hath not the Son of God, hath not
life.
Lr.n Sunday was a day of great
blewing. The evening service wit
nessed a crowded house. It was a
service of unusual power. Many said
it was the best service we .have
hitherto had.
The sermons this .week are on
"The Devil." Exceptional Interest is
being manifested. The two addres
ses we have already had, "Satan's
Origin" and "Satan's Work," have
been a revelation to everyone who
has heard them. No person can
afford to miss these addresses. The
personality and character of Satan
is no less clearly set forth in the
Scriptures than the personality and
character of Christ. Dr. Pratt backs
his statements with the Scriptures.
No more forcible presentation of the
truth have we ever heard. The Bi
ble is stored with riches to which
our eyes had neverbefore opened.
Come and get the benefit of these
addresses and the afternoon Bible
readings. PRESS COMMITTEE, i

for practical purposes, and other
difficulties such as danger of fresh

In the estimation of the engineers.

two-mile tunnel were considered. It

HOW 8YMPT0MS MAY MISLEAD.
Who Is there of us all, rich oi
poor, learned or otherwise, who has
not at some time or the other reau
x booklet Issued by the proprietors
of some patent cure-all? Who has
.ead such a booklet almost with ter
ror, realizing that we had most, It
Jot all of the symptoms described,
and that we must therefore be at
fllcted with practically all of the dis
ases known to man?
And Is It not plain that there Is
in this a direct lesson to sufferers
.'rom any cause whatsoever? D
symptoms are so general, If you
may have the same ones in such a
variety of diseases, i3 it not appar
ent that they must be but a pool
juide by which to decide what Is
your trouble? And Is tt not chiefl)
with symptoms that doctors have
been accustomed to deal?
The other way is the way of the
osteopathic physician. He takes due
account of symptoms, of course, ant
gives directions as to diet and ways
of life with as much skill as any
jther, at least. But his primary
method Is to make an examination
that -will reveal the defect in the
Hructures of the body that has in
terrupted the flow of the blood and
f the nerve force and thus made
'he trouble possible. He attacks the
cause of the symptoms directly, In
Uead of the condition, and that if
why he Is getting better results.
