The reception and program cemmit-
tee, composed of the following ener
getic wcrkes Insnred the success of the
affair : Mesdames Ireland, Bobzien,
Jno. Luc-us, Archer, Coe and Jewell.
Delicious refeshments were served and
vocal selections by Mrs. W. W. Walker
and Mis. W. E. Willi" added much to
the pleasure of the occasion.
Special 'missionary collections were
taken Sunday by both the Sunday
school and, Epworth League of the
Methodist church, booth, Sunday.
The churches of Medford have
nnited and are holding rousing meet
ings in the movement to rid the city
of saloons. The sentiment is growing
and if the work is pushed as it is now
being done, that town will doubtless
soon be among the "dry" places of
Oregon, which are growing in number
right along.
.The Bethany Presbyterian Endeavor-
era had a most delightful time at the
home of Mr. and Mrs. J. Pardee, Fri
day evening, when they hold their
regular business and social session.
Out of a membership of 200. the
First Christian church of Grants Pass
now has no less than 50 members who
are giving a tenth cf all their earnings
to carry on the work of the qharch.
Can it be wondered st that this com
paratively new organization is ex
periencing such a remarkable growth
and develop ment.
The C. E. society of the first Christ
ian church is making plans to organ
ize Sunday schools in the places near
to the city, where there are no inch
organizations in existence.
Rev. C. O. Bookman's many friends,
both in and out of the Newman M.
E. church will be rejoioed to know
that be has been returned to this
charge for another year. He"will now
enter npou his ' third year's labors
with very encouraging pronpects for a
fine year's work.
Sunday the Newman Sunday schnol
reached its high attendance mark thus
far, this season, 237, being just 130
more than for the corresponding day,
last year. Superintendent H. L.
Oilkey is regarded as one of the best
and meet successful officers in this
position to be found anywhere. He
is just the man for the place and his
efforts are being crowned .with great
success.

While attending the Laymen's
Conference at Portland, last week,
II. L. Uilkey, of Grants Pass was
honored by being chosen as an alter
nate delegate to the great general
conference which meets at Baltimore,
Md., next May. His many friends
will hope that he may he permitted to
attend the uott-d Ktliering.
Owing to the non-arrival of a tele
kraiu sent by Dennis Stovall from
Ogden, regarding the arrival of bis
little son's body, Uev. C. O. Beck-
uian, paster of Newman Methodist
church missed most .of the conference,
although he dul Ret to make his re
ports aud answer to roll call.

The business spirit is crushing out

There are thousands, both men and
women, who do not take titte to eat
properly. They rash thrones, life,
and a result- we have an age of in
digestion, nervousness, irritability,
sleepless nights, and morose dispo
sition. With the discovery of Mi-o-na tab
lets, there is no longer iny ezense for
one to have ill health from stomach
weakness.
Mi-o-na strengthens the wa Is of the
stomach, stimulates secretion of the
digestive juices, regulates the liver
and restores muscular contraction to
the Intestines and bowels, so no
laxative is needed.
Sick headaches, palpitation, bad
taste in the mouth, yellow skin, ir
ritability, coated tongue and melan
choly are a few of the many distress
ing rennlts of indigestion. Miona
never fails to dispel all these troubles.
Demaray sells Miona in 50 cent
boxes, aud guarantees to refund the
money if the remedy does not give
satisfaction.
