Box C. W. HESS, The Druggist, Butler, Mo. Bibles For Hotels. The Gideons, an organization of Christian travelling men, have for- mulated a plan to place a Bible in the rooms of every hotel in the Uni- ted States. (f the eix hundred thousand travellng men tn this ness and grace!|country only about three thousand are Gideone, but the organization is steadily Increasing. I6 1s the largest mission soclety ever organized that does its work at {ts own expense, asking no help from the churches. The effort to place Bibles in the hotels throughout the country ts a great work. Many a young man aud young woman, far from home tempted almost beyond their strength, might be saved at a@ cru- to read the living words of truth. The public tn general too often un- derates the morals of the traveling man. The Gideons, aside from their mission work, are doing much for traveling saleamen the world over. — Republie.
