Pleasant ' Several weeks ago in the columns of The Holiness Advocate, Rev. W. H. L. McLaurin, former pastor of the Con cord circuit, published a personal chal lenge to every preacher in the Confer ence requesting that some pf them pre fer charges against lim at this Confer ence on the ground of his Btand regarding- the "holiness question." He desires that the matter be, given a thorough investigation and a trial in stituted, in order for the Conference to become satisfied whether he is advocat ing and preaching that form of the doc trine, which is m harmony with the teaching of the Methodist Church. If he is proven to be out of harmony with the Church he agrees to withdraw, and if he is found to be in accord with the Church he favors the withdrawal of those who are not. ! DIU of ta RMW4M Caartk . riMauL Sunday, November 16th, was dear and mild, favorable to the gathering of the members and their friends to the dedication "of the substantial, neat brick church they have erected at UL Dr. W. W. B-y, Presiding Oder of the district, with the pastor in charge. Rev. a M. Pickena, and the official members of the charge, held their last qoarterl conference and dosed the offl cial business for the conference year on 8aUirdav. Theae faithful mi much beloved by their people and their. services earnestly desired for another year. . ! Bishop A. Coke Smith, of Charlotte, engaged to dedicate the new, church, arrived, and with Dr. Bays was a guest at the parsonage, i - ' At 11 o'dock Sabbath morning the house was filled above and below with the members of this church and other churches of the circuit, together with many friends of the community and the young ladies from the seminary. The Bishop announced his text from Ps. 116: 12, 13 and 14th verses, "What shall I render onto the Lord for all his benefits towards me," etc His ser mon was very plain, practical and full of pathetic passage. The audience was made to feel deeply solemn, suf fused with tears and laughter by turns, under the masterly hand of the strong, sympathetic. Holy Ghost preacher. Bishop Smith is incisive in the pulpit, magnetic at the fireside, and this week will prove; his ability to pre side successfully over an annual confer ence when he holds his first confer ence at Monroe. J At the dose of the sermon, the house was presented the trustees, Dr. C. H. Barnhardt reading the formula to the Bishop, who set apart the same to the worship of God in the beautiful ritual of the church. The choir rendered the hymns, to gether with voluntary and offertory, in admirable manner, which contributed much to the pleasure of the services. The work of this charge . is progress ing well. Preacher and people close another successful year of labor in the cause of the Master. Quilt Presentation. The Ladies' Aid Society of Central Methodist Church have been engaged for some time in getting up a souvenir quilt containing about 1,000 names, each-name representing 10 cents paid, which amount was applied to purchas ing furniture for the new church. It was decided to present the quilt to Rev. J. A. B. Fry when completed, and the presentation was made at prayer-meeting last week, the following neat and appropriate speech being made by Mrs. E. B. Brower, who was appointed for that purpose: Mr. Fry, it is with great pleasure that I, as a representative of the Ladies' Aid Society of this church, present to you this quilt. As you know, the quilt was made by the ladies, and we' want to assure you that it! has been u labor of love. It contains the names of every member of your church, every infant to whom you have i administered bap tism, besides numbers of your friends of other denominations who love and esteem you. Every name was wrought with the golden thread of love and every stitch is but! the breath of a prayer for your happiness and success. Accept it with a sincere wish that you may be our pastor another year. Bishop Smltb in Concord. Bishop A. Coke Smith, of Charlotte, spent last Sunday night in Coucord and preached in Central Methodist Church at the evening hour. A crowd ed house greeted him, and his' sermon from the text: "And he did evil be cause he prepared not his heart to seek the Lord," the epitaph over the tomb of Rehoboam, created a profound im pression. Bishop Smith speaks plainly but is not sensational, and such preach ids can but result in eood. His ideas are practical, nd he shows that he ! knows human nature well. While here the Bishop was the guest of Mr. D. B. Coltrane. ' Pretty Wedding of I Popular Conple at Caflney. Gaffney, S.

Oats are looking fine; corn about two-thirds of a crop; cotton crof. one half; pease good; turnips very good; sweet potatoes good. Farmers are gathering corn and sow ing wheat, and are looking cheerful. Our fall honey crop is fine.' There has been more honey extracted in this community this fall than for several years. We expect to see all our people looking sweet. The census of this community show about four boys to one girl, and we have a number of candidates for matri mony. Borne of our Zobo band boys seem to be much attracted across Kocky River and often visit some (as they say) of the prettiest jrirls in the world. We hope the county board may build them a bridge at the Garmond "mill, as they have great trouble often in crossing. It will not only be a great accommoda tion to them and the public, but will save some poor boy s life, as we have been expecting some one to be drowned while crossing. J Mr. II. T.

Editor: Some time ago I made a trip in an eastern direction to our ad joining county, Stanly. When I ar rived at New London I went to Capt. M. S. Parker's, a prominent citizen of that place. After partaking of a good meal we sat down for a short conversa tion ;This I very much enjoyed,! for my host, although advanced in years, is still quite vigorous and very entertain ing. . The value of his supervision of his farm was evidenced by good build ings, I well tilled fields ; . and splendid growing crops. After putting the bands to work he returned to the house and accompanied me to the near-by village which I passed in the morning, and where I met a number of friends and acquaint ances. The village has several stores and the merchants were all busy wait ing on their customers. The most of the inhabitants of the place claim to live at the rate of 60 minutes to the hour, but a few exceed that rate, I think. On our way tothe village my companion pointed to an old house standing near the road, say ing, 'There stands an old house which has a history. Part of that house was built prior to 1776. The timber was felled in the forest and actually sawed (ripped) by hand, there being no saw mills in the country in those days." .. Having spent a pleasant night with my friend I started out in the morning for home. Interested in the story of the old house as told the! day before, I went to see it for myself. I examined the old house, carefully, and found it just as described. The logs are 4 inches thick and, on an average 10 inches wide. The corners are plumb and the walls are perfectly straight. The parti tion logs are dove-tailed i into the side walls, making it impossible for them to spread. Owing to age,' peculiarity of structure, I and superior: workmanship (considering the tools then in use), this is, I think, an unusually interesting house. j , Thinking it would be of interest to your many readers to know of a dwell ing which antedates the Revolution, I have sent you mis communication. ?

She had been a long and pa tient sufferer, but accepted all as com ing from her loving heavenly Father. She died in the triumph of a living faith.; Funeral services were held in Organ church November 15th, in the presence of a. very large gathering of relatives and friends. Her grave was literally covered with flowers. It was a touching sight to see the members of Organ's W. H. and F. M. Society, of which she was a member, each deposit a boquet of white chrysanthemums as a last token of love. " -.K G. II. C. (BMMFQiJILM I pequeath to my children Scrofula with all its attendant horrors, humiliation and suffering. This is a strange legacy to leave to posterity ; a heavy burden to place upon the shoulders of the young'. This treacherous disease dwarfs the body and hinders the growth and development of the faculties, and. the child born of blood poison, or scrofula-tainted parentage, is poorly equipped for life's duties. 1 Scrofula is a disease with numerous! and varied Symptoms ; enlarged glands or tumor about the neck , and armpits, catarrh of the head, weak eyes and dreadful skin eruptions upon different parts of the body show the presence of tubercular; or scrofulous matter in the blood. This dangerous and stealthy disease entrenches itself securely in the system and attacks the bones and tissues, destroys the red corpuscles of the blood, resulting in white swelling, a pallid, waxy appearance of the skin, Ices of strength and gradual wasting away of the body. 1 I; S.
