.-TheYe can be no quest ion as to 1
the seriousness of the times in 1
which we are living, when the 1
heads of our government 4jiv con- '
stantly impressing upon us the
necessity of prayer, lis not unusual
"for bishops, ministers ol
all denominations, and religious. <
leaders, to make prayer ie?iuest*
on liie part of their followers J
But when kings, presidents and j
? ' governors are constantly calling
their subjects to prayer, its a dan .
gerotjs?v. arning and everybody
will do well to heed the same. The
