Reinmiller of Cleveland, , li Ohio His Ohio. s leettu'a treats of a live tople. The claim is boldly put forth to -day that the apostolic age of infra cle-woiking power is fast returning, and that God is again bestowing upon individuals the lost gifts of healing the sick, and that tbe•tirxie will soon come when ''.Doctors and Drugs" will be rel- egated to oblivion. The healing- of the sick without the use of material agen- cies is claimed to be the chief cause of the phenomenal growth of. Dowieism, Christian Science, Spiritualism and kindred "isms" in our day. The lect- urer will point out the true and the false, the genuine and the spurious in the modern systems of faith cure. He will take the fads, fakes, and fancies in the realm of healing to the final court of appeals -the word of God, The Rev. Mr, Eeinmiller was for- merly an instructor in one of the lead ing•Seminaries of Germany, and for the last twelve years he has been edit- or of one of the largest and most in- fluential relis•ions periodicals in Amer- ica. lie is well qualified to give the subject of bis lecture an exhaustive and yet popular treatment. On the Platform ue happily combines the thor- oughness of German scholarship with the fire and enthusiasm of American eloquence. All should embrace the opportunity to bear him on so timely and interesting a subject. Admission, Adults 20cts. Children l0cts.
