Mrs. Turner left Springfield in 1861 with her husband and household goods, fleeing from the They found shelter and refuge in the Lone Star state, where they have resided since and waxed wealthy. During all these years she has pined for her old Missouri home, and her present visit has intensified that feeling. She is a daughter of the late John L.

McCracken, connected with a number of the oldest and most respected families of Greene county. She will remain several weeks. During her exile in Texas she has beeu a constant reader of THE LEADER, and is almost as familiar with its growth and people as if she had resided here all the time.

T. V. Fifth Annual Convention Called Lo Order Large Number Present. The W. C.

T. U. of the 13th congressional district began their 5th annual convention at the South Street Christian church this morning at 10 o'clock and will continue until Tuesday night. The church was beautifully and artistically decorated with flowers. This motto arches the pulpit: God and Home and Every Land." The attendance is large comprising delegates from all the neighboring towns.

More are expected. The convention was called to order at 10 o'clock by Mrs. Cushing, of Marrionville. Mra. Hester Jones, of Peirce City, acted as secretary.

The report of the last annual meeting was read and the usual committees appointed, after which the convention adjourned until 2 p. m. at which time the committees will report and regular business will be taken up. Mrs. Clara Hoffman, of Kansas City, president of the state W.

C. T. 15 present and will deliver two lectures. Her subject tonight will be Problem that Faces Us." Mrs. Hoffman is one of the most prominent workers of the United States.

Thompson, M. University of New York, New York City, says: adults are carried off in this country by chronic kidney disease than by any other one malady except consumption." This shows that Dr. Thompson considers kidney disease a frightful malady. He also says, disease has no symptoms of its own. but has the symptoms of every other The reason why Warner's Safe Cure cures so many different diseases is that by curing symptoms, which are called diseases, it strikes at the roots of disease itself.

Stearns. from Lesson Helper Quarterly by permission of H. 8. Hoffman, 12. "The first day of unleavened bread, when they killed the passover." The last day on earth in a mortal body had come; this night Ho would keep the passover with His disciples, and on the morrow be crucified- Christ our passover sacrificed for us (I Cor.

He went forward calmly, unwaveringly, knowing every step of the way beforehand. It was over fourteen hundred years since the first passover was kept that night in Egypt, when by the blood of a lamb the first born of Israel were saved from death and the nation brought forth from their bondage by the outstretched arm of Jehovah, and now the Lamb of God to whom every sacrifice from the beginning pointed is about to be slain, whose blood saves from eternal death all to whom it is applied, and who shall yet accomplish for Israel a greater deliverance than that from Egypt. Let every teacher study carefully the story of the passover and unleavened bread in Ex. xil and teach the scholars to await with them its future fulfillment in the Kingdom of God. 13.

"He sendeth forth two of his disciples," Just as when He wanted the ass' colt (chap. xl, 1), but this time we know whom He sent, for Lu. xxii, 8, says it was Peter and John; He may have sent the same two on the previous occasion, but we are not told. He sendeth whom He will, and where He will, and every disciple is expected to be ready and promptly obey, willing to be sent anywhere, and just as willing to be passed by and see another sent; the last is sometimes the hardest. yo into the city, and there shall meet you a man bearing a pitcher of water; follow him." All things are naked and open to His eyes.

He is acquainted with all our words and ways (Heb. iv, 13; Ps. exxxix, 1-4); it would help us to remezaber this. Just as In I Sam. Samuel told Saul that morning whom be should meet that day, what they would be carrying, what they would give bim and say to him, so our Lord could tell us every morning all the events of the day that is before us; let the practical effect of this on us be, that whatever may come to us we shall say, "Now my Saviour knew this beforehand, He has permitted this and I will be still and hear His voice and see what Ho will do." 14.

"The Master saith, where is the guest chamber where I shall eat the passover with my disciples?" What a privilege to prepare a room for Jesus and welcome Him and His disciples to it; what a privilege to let Him have the use of anything that we have, but how slow we are to see it. Jesus knew that man's heart, and knew that he would gindly provide the guest chamber and therefore sent the disciples to him. Does He see that we daily wait and watch for opportunities to serve Him! 15. "Ho will shew you a large upper room furnished and prepared; there make ready for us." This indicates the man's cheerful and willing service; be did do as little as he could; he did not say, Well, it I give the use of a room that is all Ho can expect of me, but, like Mary in the previous lesson, be did all that he could, he gave a furnished and prepared room. Jesus gave Himself, His all, for us; unless we cheerfully place all we are and have at His service it is a proof that we do not know or appreciate His love to us.

16. "His disciples went forth and came into the city, and found as He had said unto them; and they made ready the passover." When we obey Him we will always find it just as He says; there is nothing so safe and sure and glorious as believing and obeying God. If wo are willing and obedient we shall eat the good of the land (Isa, 19). 17. 'And in the evening He cometh with the twelve." One of them had in his heart the spirit of murder, for he had been to the chief priests and agreed with them for a sum of money to betray Him unto them (vs.

10, 11); yet He continues with the twelve as one of them, not thinking that the searcher of hearts saw his every step and knew his every word and act. How many are like him today and yet continue among the number of the professed followers of Jesus! 18. "And as they sat and did eat, Jesus said Verily I unto Ana of son eateth with Me shall betray If you would have the complete record, read between the last verse and this one Luke xxii, 15-18; John xiii, 1-17, and prayerfully ponder the things written there concerning the kingdom of God and the present need of cleanness, humility and loving ministry to others. 19. "They began to be sorrowful, and to say unto Him one by one, Is it IP Luke and John tell us that they began to inquirenmong themselves, doubting of whom He spake.

What a testimony to the devilish skill of Judas that he could be for three years a thief and hypocrite, and these eleven not find it out and perhaps not suspect it; on the other hand what a glorious testimony to the long suffering and wondrous love of Jesus that He bore so patiently with this wicked one and never in any way indicated to the others what he was. 20. "He answered and said unto them, It is one of the twelve that dippeth with me in the dish." If all dipped in the same dish this would be like saying, it is one who can eat with mo and yet kill me, which would be the breaking of the most solemn vow of friendship and fidelity. Matthew says, "he that dippeth his hand with me in the dish," which might imply that Judas was sitting or reclining near to Jesus; he also tells us that Judas then said, "Master, is it to which Jesus replied, "Thou hast said," thus finally pointing him out before them all, for the time had come, as it will surely come, sooner or later, to all like him. For further light on this particular moment at the feast read John xiii, 24-30.

21. "Good were it for that man if he had never been born." Then, plainly, it is better never to be born than to profess to belong to Christ and be a hypocrite. 22. "And as they did eat, Jesus took bread, and blessed, and brake it, and gave to them and said, Take, eat; this is my body." Wo conclude from John xili, 30, that Judas had at this time gone out, and now that the passover sacrifice was about to receive its grand fulfillment (the future fullAlment in the kingdom will be as to results), Jesus institutes a new ordinance, which la to be observed by His followers till he come again (I Cor. xi, 20).

23, 24. "And He took the cup, and he said unto them, This is my blood of the now testament which is shed for many." After all had caten of the bread then He massed to cach the wine, bidding them drink it, and telling them that it was His blood hed for the remission of sins. The smallest hild can understand that when Jesus aid, I 811 the door," din the tine, A111 the morning star, that le did not mean that He was a real door, or tine, or star, such as all children seo and now about, but that He was in some respects Ike these: let the teachers explain: So when Te said this is my body, this is my blood, let be made very plain to tho children that it ras actual bread and wine which He gave to dis disciples and which they ato and drank, and not In any sense His real flesh and blood, ny more than Ho was real wooden door vine. The secret of the universal success of Brown's Iron Bitters is owing to the fact that it is the very best iron preparation made. By a thorough and rapid assimilation with the blood it reaches every part of the body, giving health, strength and endurance to every portion.

PASSED AWAY. J. N. Appleby, a Pioneer of Franklin Township, Died Sunday. We regret to announce the death of Mr.

J. N. Appleby, which occured Sunday, 12th at his home in Franklin township, about sixteen miles from this city, aged 70 years. Mr. Appleby was born in Bedford county, December 6th.

1819. His parents moved to Wayne county, in October, 1832. Next year he moved to Greene county and the southern part of Franklin township, where he has farmed ever since, raised a large family, been an upright, respected and honored citizen. He WaS a member of the Presbyterian church. He married Miss Susan Thornburg, of Platte county, in March, 1841.

Three sons and one daughter were born. His first wife died in 1852. In 1853 he married Miss Mary McCrosky, of this county. By this union they were blessed with four sons and three daughters. Mr.

Appleby was a staunch Union man during the war and belonged to the enrolled militia when Springfield was attacked by the late 1 Marmaduke, January 8th, 1863. In 1860 he voted for Bell and Everett for, president and vice president. The former was 4 cousin of his mother. In 1880 he was elected justice of the peace in Franklin township on the Republican ticket and re-elected in 1882. The following resolution was adopted by the Board of Trade at their meeting Tuesday night, and is now on its way to Washington: Resolved, That the Board of Trade of the City of Springfield, Missouri, respectively requests the President of the United States to select a competent man from west of the Mississippi river the vacancy that now exists in the state commerce commission, caused by the resignation F.

Walker, a member of that body, to the end that the peculiar problems and vast interests of the great and growing west may be represented on said commission by one member familiar with them by association. The matter of tie vote on two directorg was deferred until next regular meeting, when it is expected the board will have competent legal advice a8 to how the vacancies shall be tilled. The secretary's office in Board of Trade building has been papered, carpeted, decorated, new desk secured, and all future meetings will be held there. THE Brompton Hospital for consumptives, I London, England, publishes a statement that 52 per cent. of the patients in that institution had unsuspectkidney disease.

Every drop of blood in the system passes thousands of times through the lungs in each 24 hours. The same blood passes through the kidneys for purification. If the kidneys are not in a healthy condition or able to expel the poisonous or waste matter the acids return to the delicate tissues of the lungs and produce irritation, which results In the symptoms of what is known as consumption. This explains why 52 per cent, of the consumptive patients have unsuspected kidney disorder. Warner's Safe Cure puts the kidneys in a healthy condition taking acids from the blood which vitiate the lungs and cause consumption.

Want Statistics. Want Their Man. John P. Hubble has been appointed sub-committee of the committee on statistics for the Merchants' Exchange to get a statement from the churches, and secret societies of Springfield to be printed in a hand book by Mr. Burch.
