:. An interesting paper on the effect of
the motion. of the air within an auditor
ium upon its acoustic properties, is con-
tributer by W. w. Jacques, Fellow in
Physics Of the Johns Hopkins University,
to the Journal Of the Franklin Institute.
Preachers, singers, actors, and public
speakers generally will find valuable sug-
gestlons indicated by it. Mr.. Jaques has
repeated Tyndall's experiments with
some notifications, and arrived not only
at the conclusion that currents of air
Of varying density form one of the chief
obstacles to the propagation of sound,
but that they actually modify the sound
wave, and 20 give rise to great indistlnct-

NOV ~ mCOx19s OuG tue disease.
1t would seem to be truth appreciable by
all, and especially by professors Of the healing
art, that to remove the disease, not to alleviate
its SYMPTOMS, should be the chief aim Of medi-
cation: Yet in how many instances do we
see this truth admitted in theory, ignored in
practice. The reason that Hostctter's stom-
ach Bitters is successful in so many cases, with
which remedies previously tried were made
quatc to cope, is attributable to the fact that
it is medicine which reaches and removes
the causes of the various maladies to which it
is adapted. Indigo ;tion, fever and ague, liver
complaint. govt, rheumatism, disorders of the
bowels, urinary affections, and other maladics
are not pnllated merely, but rooted out by it..
1t goes to the fountain head. 1t is really, not
nominally, radical remedy, and it enows
the system with an amount of vigor which is
Its best protection AGAINST disease.

"MILLIONS IN IT,"
Mrs; Marie Gordon Raymond Granted an
AbsoI,ste Dtvorce from "Msslbers.y Sell


absolute Dtuorce from "Mulberry Sell
IerS." i "-~
Justice Nelson, of Brooklyn City Court,
Monday, granted decree of absolute d.
vorce in the suit of Mrs. Marie A. Raymond,
better known as Marie Gordon, the actress,
against John T. Raymond. The suit was
begun about month ago, and the COM
plant sworn to by Mrs. Raymond contained
an allegation of infdelity inculpating a
woman in New York.
The papers we're served upon Mr.. Ray
-mond while he was fulfilling his recent en-
gagement at Waltack's in "Wolfert's Roost. -
Defense was interposed, and the time allotted
for him to put in his answer having expired,
ex-Judge Troy, counsel for the plaintiff, APP
piled to Justice Nelson last week for the ap-
pointment of referee to take the testimony
of the woman inculpated, on the ground
that she was sick and unable to attend court
Justice Nelson appointed Horace Graves.
The woman gave her testimony on condition
that her name should not be made public.
She acknowledged the truth of the allega-
ton, and her testimony being reduced to
writing she signed It.
Mrs. Raymond, richly attired and wearing

in his private room in the city court, with
her counsel, ex-Judge Troy. The case was
then heard with closed doors. Mr.. Troy
read the affidavit of service of the summons
and complaint on John T. Raymond, and
submitted another affidavit to show that no
answer had been returned. Mrs. Raymond
was then sworn. She testified to the date
of her marriage to Mr.. Raymond, and as to
whether they had children. The testimony
taken by Referee Graves was read, and JUS
tice Nelson decided the case in Mrs. Ray
mond's favor. s
BY the request of Mrs. Raymond through
her counsel, Justice Nelson cautioned the
clerk of the court to strictly obey the rule
enjoining secresy in absolute divorce pro-
ceedings. Accordingly the papers were locked
up. The plaintiff counsel said that he had
been enjoined to secresy, and refused to give
any information about the case. II. was
learned that the woman involved q not an
actress. -s-. .a@&o '- @
