PROBABLY no two hotels in the country have
been so much looked up to and talked of as
models to be initiated and emulated as the Ire
mont and Revere Houses of Boston, and in the
lusty winter of their age they still defy the
competition of many of their more pretentious
rivals Messrs. Chaplin, Quincy & Co. now
manage both houses than whom none know
better how to minister to the wants of soiourn-
ers at hotel, Both houses are well patronized,
and continue to be famous as resorts for the
most distinguished artists, diplomats and scions
of nobility.

CONSERVATIVES, TAKE NoTIcE.-Eyery moment
of delay makes your cure more hopeless, and much
depends on the judicious choice of remedy The
amount of testimony in favor of DR.. Schenek's Pull
monte Syrup, as cure for consumption, far exceeds
all that be brought to support the pretensons of
any other medicine. See DR.. Scheucks Almanac.
containing the certificates of many persons of the
highest responsibility, who have been restored to
health, after being pronounced incurable by phys-
clans of acknowledged ability Schenck's Pulmonic
Syrup alone has cured many as these evidences will
will show but the is often promoted by the en-
ployment of two other remedies which DR.. Schenck
provides for the purpose. These additional remedies
are Schenck's Sea Weed Tonic and Mandrake Pills,
By the timely use of these medicines, according to
directions DR.. Schenck certies that most any case
of Consumption may be cured.

something to Abliterate the tell-tale tracks OF

The Detroit Tribune says "The death of
one OF the pioneer Episcopalan ministers Of
this State. Rev. VIM. s. Lyster, has already
been announced. He died full OF years, OF
honors and of the love and respect OF all men.
He was born at Sion, Wexford county, Ireland,
March 5. 1905, and died at Breedsville, Van
Buren, county, Sept. 9, 1877 at the age of sew
enty-two. His ancestors were men OF fervent
piety, of superior intellectual powers in the
community of which they were members. Mr..
Lyster entered the Trinity College, Dublin, in
1926, with the degree of 3. A. He pursued his
the illogical studies at the University of Edln-
burgh. In 1880 he was ordained priest by
Bishop Saurin, OF Dromore. On March 5. 1882,
he was married to Ellen Emily Cooper, Of
Wexford county, Ireland. He came to the
Unit ed States IN 1882, since which time, until
few years before his death, he has been con-
stantly engaged IN missionary services. In the
month OF May, 1888 he came to Tecumseh, and
by lnvit alton administered communion in the
the new court house. In June following he
moved bis wife from Cleveland, and took
charge Of the garsh at Tecumseh, and in Octo-
Der following latd the cornerstone OF the
church which still stands an honor to the town
and to his memory, raising $500 in Washing
ton and elsewhere to aid in its building. In
February, 1886, he closed his services at Te-
cumseh, and retired with his family to his land
ed possessions, which completely encirced the
admired Sand Lake OF Cambridge township,
Lenawee county. There he enjoyed the Sc
cluded and majestic forest hfe with the I'M
surpassed boating and fishing on the lake
while minis ering TO the wants OF the surround
Jog community in numberless ways. During
the period between 1886 and 1914 he preached
at Christ's Church, Detroit. for two or three
years also in Monroe, Clinton and Saline. In
April 1S43 he organized Saint Michaels and
All Angels parish at Cambridge, where he held
services at Cambridge and Brooklyn for over
25 years. The first OF May, 1870, his last SER
mon was preached in the church at Cambridge,
at the close OF which he said: a. will say
unto you what never was said in Heaven-fare-
WE'LL" He left the parish at Brooklyn and
Cambridge-being unable, both from delicate
health and declining years, to publicly officiate
TO enjoy retired home with his brothers
family at Breedsvlle. The past year his feeble
health would hardly permit him to leave his
room. The best and kindest care was with him
day and night until he died. In his life he was
model to be studied by those who doubt the
power OF truth to win the highest prices which
men SEEK His memory will be cherished 30
long as the recollection OF his virtue, his faith
and his publicity remains, and these should
never perish. His remains were taken to De-
troit. Funeral services were held in Christ's
Church (Which was built for him many years
agc) aud he was buried in the cemetery Of the
city, beside his wife and daughter"
