The Hero of Babylon.
During Vale's lecture courses of re
cent years, many of us have listened to
sorwe splendid orators, yet none of them
in my estimation can equal Dr. Stans
lleld in the delivery of his "Hero of
It ibylon." Having heard this Ivcture,
I know whereof I eak. His Mights
of oratory are simply sublime. His
word pictures are those of a master.
His description so vivid that his aud
ience feels itself transport edto Itabylon
within the great Chaldean city the
beauty of their excellency, splendid,
pompous, vet desjierately wicked. Do
not miss his description of thisdoomed
ritv, and of its doomed king. It sur
pftnses any picture of the. eventful
scene ever painted on canvass Do not
miss what he has to say about Daniel,
tli' youthful champion of pity, in the
tuidst of voluptuousness. The Kev.
Jonathan Thompson said of him last
Sunday evening "He talus about I),n
iel in terms of such familiarity that
you would think he had played with
tiim ami had grown up by his side."
Dr. Manstleld will excel the most san
guine expectations of any audience

Union Revival Meetings.

the services of Itev. Francis li. Smiley,
D. I)., there will no union evangelistic
meetiogs held at the M. h. church, com
mencing Thursday evening, May 14th
and continue for ten days, livery per
son is invited to attend these meetings
and a cordial welcome will bo yours
The singing will be conducted by a Mr.
McKinsey who accompanies Kev. Smi
ley.
It seems fitting at this time to pub
lish the following press notice taken
from one of the newspapers where he
has been engaged In re vlvalutic work:
"If I were to attempt to characterize
Mr. Smllev as an evangelist in a few
words, I should say that he is strong in
body ana mind and spirit; manly alter
tho 'manliness of Christ,' and intensely
earnest. Everybody who hears him will
respect him where ever he goes. He
reaches all classes, but is above all a
man whom the 'common people' hear
gladly. '
More About Beans.

with reference to a bean plant for ale
