even among those who us mI ev erything

underwent doctors' local tr.-itm nt, th s
simple medicine was the only one that
seemed to touch the spot. I; was dis-

WE ABE BOUND
BY CREEDS.
Bj T. fie Witt Talmage.
The unfortunate thing now is that so
many Christinas aro only half liberated.
They are bound hand and foot by re-
ligious creeds. Let no man misinterpret
me as antngonizing creeds. I have eight
■r ten of them; a creed about rcligiou, a
-reed about art, a creed about social life,
a creed about government, and so on.
A creed is something that a man believes,
j whether it be written or unwritten,
i 'I he Presbyterian Church is now agi-
tated about its creed. Some good men
; in it nre for keeping it because it was
| framed from the belief of John Calvin.
Other good men in it want revision. I
am with neither party. Instead of re-
vision I want substitution.
i It .s impossible that people who lived
huudred ; of years imo should fashion an
appropriate creed for our times. John
Calvin was a great aud good man, but he
■ died U3P years ago.
I could cnll the names of twenty living
Pre-Wyterinn ministers who could make
a l.eiter creed than John Calvin. The
nineteenth century ought not to be called
| to sit at the feet of the sixteenth,
j Rut,,yon say, it is the same old Bible,
I and John Calvin had that as well as
the present student of the Scriptures.
! Ves, so it is the same old sun in the
h°;tvens. hut in our time it has gone to
| making daguerreotypes and photograph*
i li is the h«me old water, but in otir
j century it has gone to running steam en-
gines. It is the same old electricity, but
in our time it has become a lightning-
footed errand boy.
So it is tjio old Hible, but new applica-
tions. new uses, new interpretations.
You m ist remember that during the hist
800 years words have changed their
meaning, and some of them now meau
more, and aomc less.
I do not think that John Calvin lie- ;
lieved. as some say he did, in the'damna-
tion of infants. A'man who believes in
the damnation of infants hjmself de-
serves to lose heaven. What Christ will
do with all tli« babies in the next world
I conclude from what He did with tho

LARD
TREATMENT
for Whisky, P^orphine anil Opium Habit.
Are You Addicted to the Liquor,*^
Morphine or Cocaine Habit
If so, why not consult Dr. Dillard, the eminent Spec-
ialts. Remember, Dr. Dillard is in no way connected
with any other so-called liquor cure, in fact it is an en-
tirely different treatment than the Keeley and other
cures. This treatment builds up the nervous system, increases the weight, and restores the whole human system. Dr. Dil-
lard is located permanently iu Guthrie and lias been a resident of the Territory since 1889; has had 22 years experience in
general practice and has made the cure of the above diseases a life study. To convince the public that lie has the only perm-
anent cure for the above diseases, Dr. Dillard will treat again free of charge, any case he fails to cure, or in other words, if
any of his patients go back to any of above habits within six months he will treat them again free. Dr. Dillard requires pa-
tients being treated for the liquor habit to remain with him one week, then they are placcd on tonic treatment lor thirty
days, after which they are cured For the drug habit they remain under the Doctor's care for from fifteen to twenty days.
Will soon be upon ur and there will
be many unprepared to meet 1'. If

To Whom It may Concern:
This certifies that on the first day
of August. 1900 I took the Dillard
treatment for the liquor habit. I
have no desire for wrhisky and
never felt better in my life. Have
gained *5 pounds and have wsrksd
every day since I left the doctor. I
was with him one week. I oan work
hard all day and it does not tire. I
would not be back where I was
three weeks ngo for one thousand

rxootnmend the Dillard treatment
for the liquor habit.
