Sioux City Journal, 18: Cedar

girl known as Mabel Mace, and in
juring Mickey Brienzo, a brother of
Frank. All occupants of the car
were residents of South Sioux City,

point where the road dividing Cedar

Lutheran Church Notes
Rdv. C. R. Lowi:.
Last Sunday was childrens' day
with us. Wo had a good program,
the music was the best that has been
furnished by any board for some
time past. The service was in bo
half of the Nachusa Orphanage.
How glad parents should be, and are,
for their children's sake they are
spared to them to mnko a homo for
them and to train them right.
What a blessing to tho childion God
gives them parents. There are so
many children who arc losing their
fathers and mothers. The war has
made numberless orphans and its
maw is not yet filled. It will take
many in our land but not so many
mothers will be taken. Ametica
should thank God for that and show
their thankfulness by seeing that no
child suffers for food, raiment and
shelter, and wo will. Our church
has children who are not cared for
by parents, for they have none.
Nachusa is one place where the
church gives them a home. All the
support i free will offering. No
sot iii( .. ! .support at all is for
Nachusa ,!ut God helps it and
feed3 the children. Tho manage
ment is efficient and the homo has a
fine standing in its community now.
The children are well behaved and
pleasant. Better than ever before.
Our offering was $00.00.
Last Friday Mr. G. F. Wortz, of
Midland college, was a caller at the
parsonage. He was here in the in
terest of the college. Tho pastor
took him to Homer to see some pros
pects and wo visited some of our
own people of Salem who havo col
lege work in view. Mr. Wertz was
much pleased with his trip here.
We are looking for Mr. Weller to
be with us again in September.
Tho object then will be to help our
men with their annunl canvas for
our church funds. You have notic
ed that under tho present system no
one is asking you for any money,
when you are at church. Pleasant,
isn't it. How would you like to go
back to the old days? Nobody for
that,
There Is to bo a congregational
meeting at Hubbard next Sunday.
At that lime they will see what they
can do toward the support of a
pastor.
May bo you think there is no no
ticable difference in the way our
young people take hold of the music
we have for our different services.
Thoy get it much easier than when
tho pastor tried to teach them that
first Christmas service. We don't
presume to take the credit to our
self, far from it, for many of them
have been taking musical instruction
a good deal of the time, and all of
them are older, and wo have had
most efficient help. We worosimply
saying there has been a notable ad
vance in the line. It is now an ob-.
jeet to keep up this work and line it
up for the church and God's king
dom. Parents can do much more
for this in tho home with their own
children than the pastor can. Do
not let your young folks think they
are too big. None ever get too old
to s'ng. We never get too old to
sing praises to God. Keep them
coming to the church, and come
yourself.

H. R. GREER, Mgr.
Former, Sheriff A. N. Ander
son Now Endorses Tanlac
Prominent Houston Alnn Say?
'Money Could Not Buy llio (loot!
It Has Done Ale."
"Money could not buy the good
Tanlac has done me, and I gladly
recommend it for what it has done
in my case," said Hon. Archie R.
Anderson, of Houston, ox'-shorl'if of
Harrison county, Texas, recently.
Mr. Anderson is unquestionably,
not only one of tho best known, but
one of the most populur men that
ever hold public office in "Tho Lone
Star" state. After serving as depu
ty sherifr of Harrison county for
twelve years, Mr. Anderson was
elected chief of police of the city of
Houston. He had occupied this of
fice only a short time when the
sheriff of Harrison county died.
Mr. Anderson's friends persuaded
him to make the race for the unex
pired term of sheriff to which he
was easily elected. He was honored
with re-election seven times and serv
ed tho people in this important of
fice for fifteen consecutive years.
Four years ago Mr. Anderson de
clined re-election and retired tc
private lifo. He cast his lot among
the people of Houston and is a large
property owner and foremost citizen
of this interesting and prosperous
city.
"I was in a run-down condition, '
continued Mr. Anderson, "and had
no appetite at all. I could hardly
sleep at night and never felt like
getting up in the morning, I was so
tired. I had the worst form of in
digestion, suffered all the time from
gas on my stomach and was contin
ually belching up undigested food.
I had to take my coffee without
sugar, as when I drank it with sugar,
I would just belch for hours. I
would bloat and swell up like 1 was
poisoned and suffered with neural
gic pains of the worst sort, and noth
ing seemed to helped mo only in a
temporary way. I just can't tell
you how I did suffer for tho past
four years and up to the time I be
gan taking Tanlac, a few weeks ago.
"When I read the testimoni'j of
some who had been relieved of
troubles like mine I just felt like 1
couldn't make a mistake by taking
Tanlac and it has done even more
for mo than I had expected. I be
gan to feel better after taking my
first bottle and have just now start
ed on my third and I'm a different
man already. I sleep like a log now
and eat just any and everything I
want without the slightest discom
fort afterwards. I am glad to in
dorse Tanlac because it does tho
work and I'm telling all my friends
just whnt I'm telling you. I never
felt better in my life than I do since
taking Tanlac. I am willing for you
to publish my statement and let
every sufferering person who mny
wish, benefit by my experience with
this great medicine."
Tanlac is sold in Dakota City by
Neiswanger Pharmacy. Adv.
