SABBATH WORK INCREASING.
DR.
THOMPSON'S ABLE ADDRESS
LAST NIGHT.
(Continued on fourth" page).
"Our Ameracan Sabbatli" Discussed Be
fore a Good Congregation at the First
Presbyterian Church.
(Deferred from Thursday.)
A fairly good crowd of people filled
the auditorium of the First Presbyter
ian church last night to hear the ad
dress of Dr. Edward Thompson, of At
lanta, general manager of the Sab
bath League of America. His talk was
practical and was well received by
those present. His special topic was
"Our American Sunday," and he began
his address by stating that the first
order issued by General Washington
as commander in chief of the American
army was know as general order No. 1,
directing that all the forces under his
command desist from all work on the
Sabbath not an absolute necessity.
And to this order Washington added
that they could not expect God's bless
ings to rest upon their efforts and en
terprises unless they did observe the
Sabbath day to keep it holy.
"Also General Robert E. Lee issued
commands of a similar nature, order
ing that all work on the Sabbath
shouldbe reduced to a minimum."
"This principle," said the speaker, "is
truly American."
"The framers of the Constitution
of the United States recognized the ne
cessity of this same strict observance
of the Sabbath when they incorporated
into that Constitution the article which
sets forth that the President shall have
ten days, Sundays excepted, in which to
consider bills. The duties of the first
President were not exacting', but the
giant intellects that framed the consti
tution foresaw that the thirteen puny
states would grow and expand until
they became a mighty nation and so
they wisely made this provision in
order that the Chief Executive might
enjoy the Sabbath.
"Now the fundamental principle of
the United States is equality of rights,
and if the President is granted Sunday,
everybody else should have it also.
"Congress meets only when called by
the President, or when thetime set
apart for its annual assembling arrives.
This time is set by the Constitution as
the first Monday in December, and so
Congress cannot meet on a Sunday.
This is also the case with the courts,
tney canno meet nor continue on
Sunday.This is Anglo-Saxon, but with
the French it is entirely different.There
every court, from thehighest tribunal
to the lowest police court, continue
without regard for the Sabath.
Some statistics were here introduced
by the speaker showing that in ten
years the population of the United
Stateshas increased 26 per cent, and
that there were now three million Sun
day toilers in his country, an average
qf one in six families. He also spoke
of the Sunday ball games, dances, and
other evils so prevalent in many of
our larger cities,
In answer to the theory that Sunday
labor was necesary, he advanced the
ideas of some of the world's great
thinkers, shtwing that all the work
done in seven days could be done in
six just as well. Mr. W. W. Peabody,
general manager of one of the largest
railway systems in the middle states,
has sated that all the work done on
his system in seven days could be done
in six.
The action of several of the more
prominent men of the country was
brought before the congregation in
their attitude to Sunday travel on the
trains. Among the incidents mention
ed were one concerning President Mc
Kinley, Grover Cleveland, Theodore
Roosevelt, and others.
The question of the Sunday mails
was also brought out by Dr. Thompson,
and in refutation of the argument of
business men that they had to open
their mails on Sunday in order to keep
up with their busines, cited the stores
belonging to John Wanamaker, which
do a larger business than any other
stores belonging to any one man onthe
Atlantic coast, and yet not a single
piece of their mail is opened on Suh
day. The same thing was said of Mar
shal Fields in Chicago, in whose store
2,200 clerks find employment, but iti
which no mall fs opened on Sunday.
"And further than that," said Dr.
Greensboro, N. C
April 22nd, 1901.

Eeltox, Mo., July 27.
For years I suffered terrible pains every
month and rny doctor told nie I could not
be cored except by an operation. I felt I
could not submit to that and was bo des
pondent I had siveri up all bones of a cure.
My husband insisted on my trying Wine of
Cardni and at last thank God I did try it.
Last month I did not have a pain, and did
all my work, which I had not done in seven
year.

Modesty is the crowning virtue of American women. It is the tra.lt
that all mankind admires. A modest woman is the most pleasing of all
Created things. Because of this becoming virtue thousands of women
prefer to suffer untold miseries rather than confide their troubles to a
physician, and to even think of submitting to an examination is revolt
ing. They cant get their own consent to an operation. Wine of Cardui
permits sensitive women to retain their modesty. With it they can cure
u female troubles" in the quiet of their own rooms. If special treatment
is required they can write to the Advisory Deoartment of the Chatta
nooga Medicine Co., and their letters will be promptly answered by
women trained in the cure ot
womanly weaknesses and irregu
larities. There should be no hesita
tion. Delayed treatment means a
chronic condition. The longer
postponed the harder to cure.
