It is well known that there are cases when the most strict advocate of tem- perance are obliged to use some sort ot wine especially those who are old and in- firm. Many weakly females as well as invalids and debilitated persons in warm weather need a little strengthening wine. The great difficulty has been in procuring a rich wine that is reliable. Theze are many cases where wine would be used wo great advantage in place ot alcheholic drinks if only a genuine artiele could be | had, and upon which physicians could rely as being strictly pure, without al- choholic admixture. The Port Grape Wine of Alfred Speer, of Passiac, New Jersey, has been analyzed by chemests in almost every state, and has always been proved strictly pure and beneficial. This wine is now being used in hospitals and in tamilies tor medicinal purposes, also in churches tor communion services. Mr. Speer’s mode of conducting the fer- | mentation is such as to retain the rich flavor and sweetness of the fruit without much fermentation to create stimula- tive properties.—Transcript.

In the evening his text was Sam. 9:27, and topic, ‘‘Standing still to see the word of God.’”? The hand of fellowship was extended to five new members of the church. The Sunday school was interesting and had 142 present. THE DAKOTA ST. M. E. CHURCH. Rev Wood preached voth ing and evening to small congrega- tions but the interest was good. In the morning his text was Mark 8 :5-8, and topic, ‘The economy of Christ and his disciples as contrasted with the extravagance of the age we live *” This subject was ably treated morn- in. and went home to every one in his* congregation. In the evening the sermon was basedf{on Jeremiah 32 : 17. This service was very interesting.

His stock invoiced something over $600 while his debts amounted to only $558.04 as shown by the attachments issued. The stock sold, however, for only $404, but besides this he had deposited in the Bates County National Bank the sum ot $45,61. A part of the debts claimed against him may not be established, but in event they do his assets will foot up about $450 against about $560 | liabilities. so that his creditors will l receive a little over eighty cents on the dollar.
