This is the last appeal in the
press in the Nation-Wide Campaign
for money to push the work of the
Episcopal Church, in the Lexington
Diocese, of which this parish is v
part.
The apportionments are caloulat-!
ed mathematically and with the ex- I
ception of the Colored Mission, are
proportioned to the amount of the
annual expenditures upon itself of
each Parish or Mission, taken in
connection with its baptised mem-'
bership. There is, therefore, entire
impartiality and nothing arbitrary
in the fixing of the parochial quotas.
It has been announced from the Na
tional Headquarters of the Nation
wide Campaign that; what is re
ceived fiom the General Church wyi
be proportioned to what is contrib
uted from here, to objects outside
this Diocese.

each Parish and Mission in the ap
portionment for each of the three
years laid upon this Diocese by the
National Organisation of the Nation-Wide
Campaign, 'for objects out
side the Diocese, such as Missions,

vice. If the organization ip able toN
grant all the Diocesan askings, this

A Prominent Woman's
Testimony .
.Louisville, Ky.: "I can certainlsTproise
Dr. Pierce's remedies for the benefit I have
received from then.
The 'Lotion Tablets'
I used on my doctoi'a
recommendation
bout four years ago. ,
'I had a condition
Ba't weakened me
'terribly and I lost
flesh as well. These
tablets cured me of
all inflammation. I
pi'erwards took the
t 'Favorite Prescrip
' tion' and it built me
dl AeCi? UP m Aeaitn ana
- 'r strength: mv weieht
increased seven pounds while taking the
first bottle. I have also taken Dr. Pierce's
Pleasant Pellets for biliousness and inactive
liver, and am confident tEat there is no other
medicine made- that can equal them for
giving prompt relief." MRS. ELEANOR
STEINMETZ, 1046 E. Washington St.
A Womah's Experience
in Middle Life
Covington, Ky.: "Dr. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription and Golden Medical Discovery
are the very best medicines I have ever taken.
They brought me thru when I was so ill
that I was bedfast for weeks. I had heard
so much about Dr. Pierce's medicines that
I finally sent for llie 'Golden Medical Dis
covery' and the 'Favorite Prescription' and
with the first few doses that I took my
health commenced to improve until I
became a perfectly well woman. I cannot
E raise these medicines too highly. I only
ope this statement will be the means of
other women who are weak and suffering,
especially thoBe at the critical time of middle
life, giving Dr. Pierce's medicines a trial.".
MRS. CARRIE PAYNE, 1458 Cordelia St.
When a girl becomes a woman, when a
woman becomes a mother, when a woman
passes through the changes of middle life,
are the three periods of life when health and
strength are most needed to withstand the
pain and distress often caused by severe
organic disturbances.
At these critical times women are best
fortified by the use of Dr. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription, an old remedy of proved worth.
Goat Good Milk Producer.
Mr. Wlnthrop Rowland of Redlands,
Cal., last year had a Swiss Toggenburg
goat, kept on the University of Califor
nia farm, which broke the world's rec
ord as a milk producer, by over 300
pounds. For the period of one year
this doe produced 2,941 pounds of rich
sweet milk, or more than 24 times her
own weight. The period of lactation
for a good doe should be ti om seven to
eight months.
CHAMBERLAIN'S TABLETS
These tablets are intended especi
ally for indigestion and constipa
tion. They tone up the stomach and
enable it to perform its functions
naturally. They act gently on the
liver and bowels, thereby restoring
the stomach and bowels to a healthy
condition. When you feel dull,
stupid and constipated give them a
trial. You are certain to be pleased
with their effect.
