A tickling cough, from any cause
is quickly stopped by Dr Shoop's
Cough Cure. And it is so thorough-
ly harmless and safe, that Dr
Shoop tells mothers everywhere to
give it without hesitation even to
very young babes. The wholesome
green leaves and tender stems of a
lung - healing mountainous shrub,
furnish the curative properties to
Dr Shoop's Cough Cure. It calms
the cough, and heals the sore and
sensitive bronchial membranes. No
opium, no chloroform, nothing
harsh used to injure or suppress.
Simply a resinous plant extract,
that helps to heal aching lungs.
The Spaniards call this shrub which
the Doctor uses. "The Sacred
Herb." Always demand Dr Shoop's
Cough Cure. Sold by All Dealers.

Rev. G. Campbell Morgan. who
practically is the successor of D.
L. Moody, recently, at the Moody
Institute, Chicago, expressed him-
self thus on the licensed liquor
traffic : "If the church were united
do you think that we sliould have
our nations blighted as they are to-
day by the drink traffic? What is
the church doing? She is guiltily
silent, and guiltily inactive. In-
dividuals are at work, but the
church has never yet risen in the
majesty of her possibility and grip-
ped the question. It is her duty
to do it. I do not believe in the
Christianity of a pian who has no
heart of compassion for the needs
of the world, and is not content to
rest and cast the whole of his in-
fluence upon the side of Christ.
What will you say in answer to
that claim? Do you say, I feel I
cannot touch political life because
it is corrupt? My answer is this,
you are the salt of the earth, and
if political life is corrupt so much
the more reason that godly men
should touch it with the antiseptic
salt of their conseorated endeavor.
Some one else says, But really such
an effort as that will not produce
the result we are aiming at. That
is not our business ; issues are not
in our hands; our Master Will win
this nation, by and by, sooner or
later, in one way or another—and
I do not care to quarrel with the-
ologians as to the method, We all
beleive he is going to win before
he has finished—but in order to
win he calls you to actin the face
of apparent impossibility, and it is
your dut
to take :your influence
and in your nation by vote and
speech and word and deed to salt
the nation and light its darkness
and make it more read,- for the
kingdom, May God himself help
nes to see our responsibility"

Death of Rev. JI' Theobald Hauch.
A Pioneer of the Evangelical Church.
Rev. John Theobald Hauch was
born in Elschbach, Bavaria, Ger-_
many, April 17, 1827. His educt•
tonal career was limited to the
years of childhood, but he was al-
ways a lover /of good books and
periodicals. In the year 1549 at
the age of 22 ye rs, he calve to
America and remained in the
vicinity of the city of New York
for a number of months after
which lie went to Pelham, Ontario,

their diligence and industry. In
the year 1856 he entered the Gospel
ministry of the Evangelical As-
sociation. After feeling his lack
of an academic training for this
high and important office he used
every possible opportunity to make
the most of his talent and powers
and became a very energetic and
successful pastor and preacher.
He belonged to the early pioneers
and endured the many trials and
hardships of earlier years when
salaries were meagre and depriva-
tions many with good grace and
firm faith. As a pastor he was
quite successful and many looked
to him as their spiritual father.
He was ever active. ever busy, al-
ways intent upon extending the
borders of Christ's kingdom. He
loved his blessed Lord whom he
served with exceptional devotion.
Up to the very last days he found
no greater pleasure than to worship
the Lord in the sanctuary, During
the unbroken term of 46 years in
the active Christian ministry he
sexved at the following places as
pastor or assistant pastor : Grove,
N, Y., one year ; Morriston, Ont.,
one year; Saugeen, one year;

removed to Zurich where he was
privileged to spend but a few weeks
more as sojourner of this world.
He was always a respected citizen
in the community where he lived,
Although not meddling in politics,
he always had a keen interest in
public affairs, and was a staunch
Canadian, loving Canadian Govern•
ment and Canadian institutions.
October 15, 1860 he was married
to Miss Catherine Mehlenbacher,
of Wayland, N. Y,, who together
spent over 47 years in blessed wed-
