STARVING CHINA.
A Message for You.
A heartrending, agonizing j
cry for bread rises from the
parched lips of China's millions
of starving men, women and
children.
Owing to the scanty rainfall
for several years and no rain at
all this year, 110 crop was har
vested in the provinces of Shan
si and Shensi, and no*>v a sec
tion of one hundred thousand
square miles in extent, with a
population one-third as large as
that of the United States, is
sorely afflicted and millions are
starving, many of them actual
ly already at death's door.
Earl Li Hung Chang has ap
pealed for relief to the good peo
ple of America, in the hope that
as true followers of the lowly
Nazarene we will return good
for evil, bless them that curse
us, and litterallv obey the com
mand: "If thine enemy hun
ger, feed him ; if he thirst give
him drink : for in so doiug thou
slialt heap coals of fire on his
head."
Hon. Edwin H. Conger,
United States Minister to Chi
na, just before starting for
home, learned from high au
thority that the people in the
famine region had eaten every
blade of grass, every bit of
bark—in fact everything that
could be eaten, and that now
they are literally eating each
other. And now comes the
DUIMIM, IM. C. JULY, 24 1001,
news that many cities, towns
and villages are already either
deserted or the houses occupied
by the dead.
Such is the story of the great
est catastrophe of the opening
century now being enacted in
far-off China, and it is in be
half of these millions that this
urgent appeal is issued, and
with it goes an earnest, heart
felt prayer that God may gener
ously move the hearts of our
people to liberally and promptly
respond to the appeal of these
helpless victims.
Out of our abundance let us
contribute in generous measure
to the needs of those whose sad
and mournful cry is : "Give us
bread! Give us bread, or we
perish!"
Let every minister of the Gos
pel, every Sunday School Su
perintendent, every Young Peo
ple's Society (whether Cluis
tian Endeavor, Epwortli
League, Young People's Un
ion. or Y.M. C. A.,) every gen
erous man and every bonder
hearted and sympa f1 iC wo
rn;! 11 throughout the gth and
breadth of this land be true to
Him whose life 011 earth was a
ministry of helpfulness to the
downtrodden, the unfortunate
and the desolate ; true to them
selves and true to humanity,
and forgiving the past lend a
hand in this great work of
throwing out the life-line to the
millions of aged men, defense
less women and innocent chil
dren of China, thus effectually
answering their pitiful prayer
of absolute helplessness.

Ono dollar will save a family

Five dollars will save six

One hundred dollars will save

Save them quickly, or they

The Same Old Story
J. A. Kelly relates an exper
ience similar to that which has
happened in almost every neigh
borhood in the United States
and has been told and re-told
by thousands of others. He says :
"Last summer I had an at
tack of dysintery and purchased
a bottle of Chamberlain's Colic,
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy,
which I used according to di
rections and with entirely satis
factory results. The trouble
was controlled much quicker
than former attacks when I us
ed other remedies." Mr. Kelly

Washed down a telegraph
line which Chas. C. Ellis, of
Lisbon, la., had to repair.
"Standing waist deep in icy
water," he writes, gave me a
terrible cold and cough. It
grew worse daily. Finally the
best doctors in Oakland, Neb.,
Sioux City and Omaha said I
had Consumption and could not
live. Then I began using Dr.
King's New Discovery and was
wholly cured by six bottles."
