Dear Friends,— Over five years ago it was suggested to put weekly in your GAZETTE a short paragraph that should give you some message concerning our God and Saviour. The idea was welcomed, and the expense guaranteed, by an aged servant of God well known to many of the Force. To me he entrusted the preparing and sending of the paragraph. From time to time it was said to him— " There is no way of knowing if the paragraph be read— no sign of interest or result can ever reach us— are you content to go on 1" " Yes, I am quite content— I do it for the glory of God," was ever the reply. Some weeks ago The Master called him. The money that remained in hand at his death is now exhausted, and to- day, reluctantly, I say good bye ! Earnestly, God be with ye ! Last words! Yes, they are sometimes very important things. _ The last words of a judge are very important to the prisoner who stands before him, and when the judge has spoken them the prisoner can make no excuse or objection, the words are immediately carried out, the prisoner has to do or to bear them. Have you, who read this, ever thought that something like this will happen when the dead, small and great, stand before God, and the books are opened, and the dead are judged according to their works 1 God's Words, whatever they may be, will be carried out at once— those who stand before Him will neither reply nor make excuse. Ask yourself— what are God's last words to me likely to be in that day when for every idle word that men shall speak they shall give account ? Try to answer your question honestly to yourself, God's Words to you then will be [ a matter of importance to you for ever and for ever. - But, as long as we are on earth, we can, if we like, believe and obey the Words of Jesus, the Almighty Saviour, who came into the world to save sinners. He always speaks loving, gentle, true words to sinful men and women, and He asks us now to come to Him. God, the Judge, will command and we must obey; God, the Saviour, asks and we can do as we please. Listen once again to the Last Words of Jesus, the Saviour, " I, Jesus, say, Let him that is athirst come ; and whosoever will, let him take of the water of life freely. Surely I come quickly. Amen, even so, come, Lord Jesus." H. H. METROPOLITAN AND CITY POLICE ORPHANAGE. PATRON: HER MAJESTY THE QUEEN.

Many people say, " How is it you claim that your medicines cure so many diseases." We answer:— In ancient times, when heathenism was rampant, people believed in a god for all good, and a god for all evil ; a god for joy, and a god for sorrow ; a god to give sickness, and a god to heal sickness. Jupiter ruled the land and Neptune ruled the sea. Ceres gave es agriculture, Venus gave us love, and Hebe youth. Now we have grown wiser ; we believe in one God only— whose word was power- ful enough to create EVERYTHING. IS it not possible for that same God to send us one remedy by which we shall cure most things 1 There are a great manv locks, and to each lock is a key, but it is not every- one who can turn the key. Our " Notesco " is the key to open the doors. Applied exttrnally, it works through the skin and reaches the disease. Taken internally a few times, the doors are opened, the disease escapes like a convict out of gaol, with the intention of never returning. Sickness is just like a burglar— it will steal in, either through a cold, dampness of the houses, adulterated food, or from the impure, foul air of crowded tenements, or sewer gas, from which we have to suffer, in this and other cities. The thief is inside ; you can't get him out because the key don't fit. We now give you the true key. Our medicine is an enemy to corruption and pain. Any corruption it eats away, any pain it relieves at once. Try it. Be warned in time ; keep a stock of " Notesco in the house. We claim our " Notesco " is superior to any medicine ever presented to the public, and we claim it with justice. REAL DETECTIVE STORIES. CLUE S j OR, LEAVES FROM A CHIEF CONSTABLE'S NOTE- BOOK.
