Can't Work
When you feel that you
can hardly drag through
your daily work, and are
tired, discouraged and
miserable, take Cardui,
the woman’s tonic.
Cardui is prepared for
the purpose of helping
wdmen to regain their
strength and health.
Not by doping with
strong drugs, but by the
gentle, tonic action, of
pure vegetable herbs.

The Woman’s Tonic
Mrs. L. N. Nicholson,
of Shook, Mo., writes:
“Before 1 began to take
Cardui, I was unable to
do any work. 1 have
taken 5 bottles and have
improved very much. I
can do the most of my
housework now.
“I can’t say too much
for Cardui, it has done so
much for me.”

Mills County Methodism.
On Friday night before the
fifth 8unday in May the Work-
ers’ Conference of the Methodist
churches of Mills county con-
vened with the North Brown
church on the Mullin oharge to
begin and carry out a previously
arranged and published program.
Bro. N. G. Ozment failing to
get there Friday night to preach
the opening sermon, Rev. F. M.
Jackson of Goldthwaite dis-
charged that duty to the satis-
faction and edification of those
present.
On Saturday morning by 9:30
o'clock the people began to as-
semble, and in a little while the
president, Rev. W. B, Moon, in
a very business-like way an-
nounced the purpose of the
meeting.
The first topic was “The im-
portance of business methods in
church finance,” which was dis-
cussed in a way that we believe
will bear fruit.
The second topic was—"Why
is it best for the stewards to man-
age all the finance of the church,
including the conference col-
lections?" A number took part
in the discussion which finally
conoluded, we think, by all agree-
ing that the officers of the church
should be a unit in untieing the
hands of their preachers on the
finance question, giving them
more time for study and pastoral
work.
The third topic was "Reasons
why the pastor’s salary should
be paid monthly.” This subject
was ably aired and we feel sure,
if the suggestions made are car-
ried out, the jingle of the dollar
will be heard in the preacher’s
pocket monthly instead of quar-
terly or annually, as the manner,
of some is.
Those who discussed “An idea
steward” were about Unanimous
in their decision that he was such
a scarce article they hardly could
conceive just how one would
look. The poor fellow certainly
got his just deserts and went
away wondering:" “To whom
shall I look, and will it ever be
said of me—'his works do follow
him’?”
The sermon on missions by
Rev. F. M. Jackson at 11 o’clock
will retain a place in the memory
of those who heard it as a mes-
sage from God to the heart and
conscience of ail who claim the
Christ as a personal Savior "and
who regard His commission—“Go
ye into all the world and preaoh
the gospel." The conclusion of
this discourse brought us to the
noon hour, when, as is the cus-
tom of the good people of North
Brown, we were informed that
the physical man had been am-
ply provided for, and—how we
did feast upon the good things
set before us!
The afternoon was well occu-
pied in the discussion of Meth-
odist polity and polioy, mission-
ary policy in the Sunday school,
and the Laymen's Missionary
Movement. The interest grew to
the close.
At 8:30 Rev. N. G, Ozment
filled the pulpit to the edification
of all, his theme being “Evan
gelistic Servioe.”
By 9:30 Sunday morning the
people had gathered from differ-
ent points and we entered heart-
ily with the North Brown Sunday
school into the study of the *es-
son, and while we talked oi the
feeding of the multitudes by our
Divine Lord our hearts burned
within us and we plaoed no dis-
count on the Sunday sohool as a
means of grace to the hungry
soul, May the Lord wonderfully
blear, keep and comfort their
young superintendent and help
him to prepare for every good
word and work.
An old-fashioned Methodist
love feast, led by Rev. W, B.
Moon, filled in the next thirty
minutes between the Sunday
school and preaching, and the
glad testimonies were convincing
evidences of an ever indwelling
Christ,
The sermon at 11 o'dock by
Rev. F. M. Jackson on the Bap-
tism of Christ was listened to
with profound attention and the
clinching arguments, earnestly
yet lovingly presented, were con-
vincing and showed oleariy to all
that he had his subject well in
hand.
This brought us once more to
the noon hour, when we had an-
other opportunity of enjoying the
hospitality and friendship (sec-
ond to none) of the North Brown
people.
The closing hour of this much
enjoyed and, we believe, very
profitable conference was a ser-
mon on “Methodism as a Re-
vival Force,” by Rev. N. G. Oz-
ment. The minds of the older
people were carried back to the
bush-breaking, river-swimming,
mountain-climbing days oi Meth-
odism, as her faithful ministers
went forth under the fire of strong
opposition and suffering to carry
the glad tidings of salvation to
those who, in their onward
march, were opening the way
for our present, peaceful civili-
zation. The bloodstains of their
sacrificed lives, as recorded in
history, do not fail to reveal the
fact that in their cabins and un-
der the spreading trees the Meth-
odist circuit rider was there to
break to them the bread of life,
that not only made Methodism
one of the greatest leading forces
in the evangelization of the
world, but put every other evan-
gelical denomination under ever-
lasting obligations to her for con-
verts who went from these meet-
ings to swell the number of com-
municants in their churches.
When our doctrines are under-
stood, our wonderful growth
known and the good we have
done is shown by actual facts,
figures and results, we command
the attention, respect and love of
every intelligent, unbiased, un-
selfish Christian denomination
under the sun. Our preachers
have been too remiss in preach-
ing our doctrine.
As this duty was voted op your
scribe you must allow him to
prolong this article to tell what
awaited us Sunday night in the
way of a desert to the feast of
which we have spoken. Rev.
Josephus-Lee of the Northwest
Texas conference gave us a ser-
mon on “Infant ^aptism." He
convincingly, good - humoredly
and clinohingly put the baby in
the church all through the Old
Testament, into the New, and
down to the present now. Bro-
ther Lee obtained these telling
arguments as a minister in the
Baptist ohurch for 31 years, as
he was studying to defeat in-
stead of defend infant baptism,
If you want a man to give you
"Thus saith the Word" and
clinch every nail he drives, you
needn’t pass by Brother Lee to
find him. Really we have been
grdwing in grace at Mullin on
the doctrines of Methodism, for
our own little Moon has not been
remiss in dealing out no uncer-
tain sound along these lines,
which has shown thought, close
study and a Christian spirit, as
he dished thorn out on large plat-
ters to his own people and others
who would come and hear. We
are on the great ocean of time
with sails unfurled and our ban-
ner of peace, love and Christian
fellowship ready to give the sal-
ute to all who love .our Lord and
His comings
The next meeting wiil be at
Big Valley on July 29, 30 and 31.

glorious time. H. C. Cobb.
