Kind Words From Our Customers. 



"the crown of thorns and THE CROWN OF DIA- 

 MONDS." 



Please send me 100 copies. It's hard to get the 

 "personal liberty" idea out of the people, and all 

 the good the saloons do in the way of taxes, etc. 

 Last fall I came nearly having black eyes in an 

 argument over personal liberty. Last fall, before 

 the elections, a lot of saloon men got so sore at me 

 they made open threats to chase me out of the 

 county, and would, perhaps, have done so had it 

 not been for the fact that an aged invalid mother 

 was needing me. - H. Stock. 



Augusta, Mo., July 5. 



"changed his MIND." 



For years I have taken Gleanings; but on the 

 first of January, this year, I decided I could do 

 without it. I've changed my mind again since 

 missing its semi monthly visits, and herewith 

 enclose §2.00 for three years. As I said before, I can 

 scarcely do without Gleanings after taking it so 

 long. If those old fathers in (bee) Israel were to 

 die out, such as Root, Miller, Doolittle, etc., I'd 

 want to know it. Then I like your religious and 

 temperance teachings. I am so glad that .leSus 

 died for me — took m.v place under the law — "bore 

 my sins in his own body on the tree," and now out 

 of love for him for becoming my .substitute and 

 savior, 1 am against whisky and all thing else that 

 would destroy the communion and joys of the sal- 

 vation. R. V. Goss.
