LUKE'S CHURCH CLOS ED LUST EVENING Last evening the Mission, which has been conducted for ilie past week at the St. Luke's church in this city, was closed, with the final sermon and in stiuction by the mis.-ioner. Father W. S. Leete. and it is safe to say these meetings have stimulated and awak ened the religious spirit among the members of the parish as nothing else has been able to and a great deal of goo.! has been accomplished in ad vancing the work of the church. Sat urday evening the service was short I 1 ! 1 1 - oeing oniy ior an neur, ana was m the nature of a continuance of the sennons and instructions given by the l ector during the first of the week and advancing different lines of the church work. The attendance yesterday was most pleasing to the rector, as both the morninir and evening services were well attended and a great deal of in terest shown in the sermons, while the question box conducted by Father Leete gave answer to a lartre num ber of questions in regard to the church work. The sermon at the morning worship hour was on "The Power of the Holy Ghost" and was most intensely interesting to every member of the parish. In the evening which marked the close of the Mission the sermon was on "The Holy Spirit in Us." and in which the missioner re viewed the work of the Mission. The instruction given last evening was on "Encouragement" and taken from St Luke 12-32, "Fear not. -little flock; it is my Father's good pleasure to give vou the kingdom," and in this Lather pointed out what was receipt for a robust and live church and his words served as an inspiration to the mem bers of the parish to greater things for their church and community.

"I bought two bottles of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy and it was only a few days vntil I was com pletely restored to h?alth.
