DANCINa.-There seems TO be no form of
ungodliness which gives church authori-
ties more trouble than dancing. Total de-
pravlty cllngs to tho legs after IL has left
all other parts Of the body, and no severity
of discipline can overcome the inclination
of the youthful brothers and sisters to skip
about on their toes to the measures Ola
lively tune. But one of the delegates In
the Methodist Conference has suggested
plan which solves the whole difficulty. IL
is TO let girl If she must dance, do II a
lone, and then let her "young man" stand
up and do likewise. Under this plan
class-eader or other person qualified TO
"call," having frovdo1 himself with a
sack but, or some such scriptura instru-
ment, might direct sister A. to trip the fam
tastic while he played the inspiring strain
of "Greenville," and then brother ID. could
take the floor and do a pedal accompani-
ment to "Lenox." The sin of dancing
might, no doubt, in this way be divested
of most of its dangerous qualities.-Er-

The veteren founder and proprietor ofthe
New York Herald Is dead. His age was
II. He was a Scotchman by birth, and
Roman Catholic in religion. lie studied
fer the priesthood, but gave the plan nm
aud embarked for America in 1919, He
was n lively, thoughtful and intelligent
boy, and is said TO have gained inspiration
for his career from reading FrankIin's
autobiography. He taught school in Hall
fax awhile, then worked hs way to Port
land and TO Boston. Here he remained
for awhile, paying for his first food, IL is
said, with a shilling which he found on the
Common. He then wandered through the
country, employing himself in proof read
ing and writing poetry. In 1922 no went
10 New York and attempted commercial
school and failed, lectured ON political
economy and failed, and made his first
venture in journalism by purchasing a
Sunday newspaper, in conducting which
he failed. After being employed for sea-
son as reporter and contributor in various
offices he became attached to the National
Advocate, a democratic organ, writing a.
gainst the tariff, and commenting on polt-
ical subjects generally. A year later he
was connected with the Enquirer under
James Watson Webb, and was one of the
pioneer correspondents at Washington.
He rose to be an associate editor of this pa
per and continued in the Office after the
consolidation with the Courier. writing in
support of Andrew Jackson. In 1892 lie
started the New York Globe, which lived
one month. Then he went to Philadelphia
and became the leading editor of a paper
which was called the Pennsylvania. Re.
turning once more to New York, he START
ed in May 1885, under the most discourage
ing and difficult circumstances, the New
York Herald, of which journal he has re-
manned the sole proprietor and conductor
up to the present time although he with
drew from the active management of the
paper about five years ago. His last sick
ness was only one week in duration, and
was of an epileptic character.
As a journalist Mr.. Bennett had wonder
full ability. He was a vigorous writer and
had an infinite tact for organization and en-
terprise. lie never attached himself to any
party or had any fixed principles of action.
His aim was to make great newspaper,
and he certainly has succeeded in the
Herald. Its editorials never have had
much influence, but it had deserved popu-
larity and power from its fullness of news
from all points of the globe. Mr.. Bennett
had genius for news collecting, and his
remarkable career will long be held up as
signal illustration of devotion to a single
purpose, and that as worthy as any that is
included in the wide circle of civilized

The object in establishing this Institution
was to attain the greatest perfection in the
preparation, practice and use of Vegetable
Remedies, and to secure permanent place
where Families, Invalds, or any person could
obtain the best medical advice, and such rem
edies as each might require, without the use
Of poisonous drugs.
DR.. Greene has been Physician of the Insti-

twenty-five years. Few men have had so
large experience in the treatment of chronic
diseases. Dr. Greene is in his ffty-ffth year
and has devoted his life to this branch of his
profession, and his success, we believe is with
out parallel.
Among the diseases to which he gives cs-
pecial attention may be noticed Cancer, Scrof-

REGENERATION OF LIMDs.-Vital force
operates with immense energy in some Of
the lower forms of life. 1t Is well known
that the common water newt, sort of
miniature lizard, may be cut and maugled
even to amputating limb, and in little
time after, new leg begins to develop.
By slow degrees it becomes rs large and as
perfect a mate to the others as the one cut
on. But there is something more surpris-
ing. If one eye is destroyed, new one
appears with its perfect crystalline lens to
match the others. There are several rep
lilies which are thus repaired when mutt
lated. HOLSTERS are prone TO severe COM
bats. Like journ tymen tailors they fight
with their great shears, often having an
arm cut off by the shears of an opponent.
Immediately, the bud of new claw pro-
iects from the stump, and ir they live long
enough before being caught for an alder
mans dinner there will be fully grown
claw as large and perfect as tho old one.
As animals rise in the scale of organization
from simple to complicated forms, the nerv-
Gus system is enlarged at the expense of
that vitality which expends itself in the re-
productio of lost parts. Where the brain
is merely knob, 'ganglion, the condi-
ton of the muscular apparatus and the Sc
erection OF bony materials are governed by
peculiar laws.

copal Church, was the election of the eight

the president of Dickinson Seminary at
Williamsport, Penn, and in 1853 he was
elected president of Asbury University of
Greencastlc, Ind, where his home now is.
He is very popular as preacher and one
of the prominent orators of the Church.
The Rev. VIM. L. Harris, ID. D., l. Id,
native of Ohio, is now nearly tifty-five
years old. He has been member of the
General Conference since 1856 during
which time lie has acted as secretary. At
ter ten years Of pastoral work he was cho-
sen principal of the Baldwin Institute and
arterward Il professor in the Ohio Wesleyan
University. Since 1860 he has been assist
ant missionary secretary of the General
Conference.
The Rev. Randolph S. Foster, d. d.
