FROM CAHIN CREEK CIRCL'IT.
Dear Bro. Brewer.
I shall now try to report my vears'
labor through your valuable paper.
When I came 011 inv work I found
the spiritual condition of the church
very low, and it is not a great deal
better yet, although we feel that we
have gained some ground.
When I came on the work there
was one Sunday-school with twentv-
five scholars.
We have now four Sundav-
Naorketv enhoinecet ome-te ?; schools with 150 scholars.
We began with five appointments
and three classes. We have added
one class.
I began a meeting July 23 at Wil-
liams Chappie which lasted thirteen
days.

A SURE CURE FOUND AT LAST, NO
ONE NEED SUFFEK. A sure cure for
the blind, bleeding, itching and ulcerated
piles have been discovered by Dr. Will-
iam (an Indian remedy,) called Dr. iFili-
iam's Indian Pile Ointment. A single
box has cured the worst old chronic cases
of twenty-five and thirty years' standing.
No one need suffer live minutes after ap-
plying this wonderful soothing medicine.
Lotions, instruments and electuaries do
mone harm than good. JFilliam's Indian
Pile Ointment absorbs the tumors, allays
tiie intense itching, acts as poultice, gives
instant and painless relief and is prepar-
ed for Piles and aothingelse. Thousands
of eared patients attest its viriues, and
physicians of all schools pronounce it
the greatest contribution to medicine of
the ane. it matters not how lorni or se-
verely you have been suffering, you can
be cured.
Judge Coons, Maysville, Ky., says:
"Dr. William's Indian Pile Ointment
cured me after years of suffering."
Judge Cofflnbury, Cleveland, O., says:
"I have found by experience that Dr.
William's Indian Pile Oiutme.it jiives im-
mediate and permanent relief."
We have hundreds of such testimoni-
als. Do n<>t suffer an instant longer. Sold
