With the burning of the murderer body ends the Durrant case, and none is more glad of the fact than the peo- ple of the church over which there has been so much notoriety. Their only hope now is to forget the whole affair | and to remove with as little stir as po: | sible eve hing that may bring the case again to mind. Talk of leveling the tower is growing again and had the trustees the neces- sary money it is not probable that it would long remain to tell of its horrors; but money is not so plentiful as to al- low of this being done at once, and so for a while yet the belfry with its broken doors and its narrow stairway, | the dull stains on the floor and the | memories that will cling around it, will | stand as a relic of all that has passed | behind its dusty, latticed windows.

There was there was no indication as to who sent |'it, but the -evident purpose was to bring the pastor within the grasp of the police and divert attention from the real culprit. Chief Crowley pald no heed to the telegram and the fact of its existence never known to more than the pastor’s most intimate friends, but to that circumstance was due the pas- tor’s desire to hold aloof from the Dur- rants and their defense and the law- yers defending. It was also such inci- ‘nn name signed to the telegram, and | of an enemy. He has explained it by saying he meant that had Deuprey come to him and the officers and prom- inent members of the church and ask- ed them to help, instead of vilifying them and trying to Include them in and he would have had people willing to assist where he had only people who were anxious to let the whole dis- | graceful affair sink out of sight. | Trustee Taber represents the feeling | of the church people when he sa “I think I volce the sentiments of or, for the man and The attitude of the pastor during the | notoriety of the case was not a clear | rants throughout the whole trial and | eived of the un- | dents that prompted his remark about | Deuprey making him a friend instead | the general suspicion, he would have | had a better chance to clear hig client | most of the people whomake Emmanuel Baptist Church their church home | when 1 say that we consider it unwise | | for us, as well as the public at large, | to agitate or talk any more of the un- | happy experiences which we have pass- | ed through the past two and a half | years.” | | 7 Continuing about the plan of the church people, he said: “As one of the trustees, T cannot say now what we will | do in regard to closing down the tow- | er.

The congregations are large, but many of the number are strangers or visitors who contribute very little to- ward the support of the church. “We all like Mr. Gibson; he is by far the best preacher ,the church has had for many years.

BEWARE OF MORPHINE. Mrs. Pinkham Asks Women to Seek Permanent Cures and Not Mere Temporary Relief From Pain. Special forms of suffering lead many a woman to acquire the merphine habit. One of these forms of suffering is a dull,§ persistent pain in the side, accompanied by heat and throbbing. There is disinclina- S8 tion to work, because work only increases the pain. This is only one symptom of a chain of troubles ; she has others she cannot bear to confide to her physician, for fear of an examination, the terror of all sensitive, modest women. The physician, meantime, knows her condition, but cannot combat her shrinking terror. He yields to her supplication for something to relieve the pain. He gives her a few morphine tablets, with very grave caution as to their use. Foolish woman! She thinks morphine willhelp her right along ; she be- comes its slave | A wise and a generous physician had such a case; he told his patient he could do nothing for her, as she was too nervous to undergo an examination. In despair, she wentto visit a friend. She said to her, “ Don’t give yourself up; just go to the nearest druggist’s and buy a bettle of Mrs. Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. IY will build you up. You will begin to feel better with the first bottle.” She did so, and after the fifth bottle her health was re-established. Here is her own o letter about it : 2 ‘I was very miserable ; was so weak that T could hardly ) get around the bouse, could not do any work without feel- ing tired out. My monthly periods had stopped and I was so tired and nervous all of the time. I was troubled very much with falling of the womb and bearing-down pains. A friend advised me to take Lydia E. Pinkham’'s Vege- table Compound ; I have taken five bottles, and think it is the best medicine I ever used. Now I can work, and feel like myself. I used to be troubled greatly with my head, but T have had no bad headaches or palp:- tation of the heart, womb trouble or bearing-down \ pains, since I commenced to take Mrs. Pinkham’s medicine, Igladly recommend the Vegetable Com- = N> pound to every suffering woman. The use of one bottle will prove what it can do.”—Mzs. Lucy PEASLEY, Derby Center, Vt. Look for these headings In To-Day’s HANNA'S VICTORY —AND—— BLASPHEMES GOD! A DURRANT AND PARENTS!
