rOLuAS SCIENTIFIC ASSOCIATION.
1.-THE public speaker Of the present day Ia
bor- under dIHaulIc- Of which thc speakers %
the last century never dreamed, for while the
audiences Of tho past received what was said
without question, those Of the present day are
usually the mental equals 0r -uperiors Of the
ones who address them. Res. Dir Ing Of
New York, when q theological student, supplied
church IN a ucIghborug town. and ou bis
way to preach one morning met 900 ag-i clorad
man. Well, Uncle DO YOU ever sutJ hatr thc

The valuable inventions Of the day arc colntod
by thousands. The increase of scientific study
u universal. The spirit Of inquiry in all fields
is 80 marked as to cause
COMMENT on EVERY SIDE.
while people seem investigating and advancing
in every direction which can help them moral
", mentally or physically This Is specially
true 81 the human body and cyctvthlnB which
concerns it, and the truths which the people
have found, even ia the last nifty years, are
simply marvellous How really ignorant some
cultured and supposedly scientific people were
only a few years ago as compared with the present
day, may be better understood from icw illus
trative facts. A prominent writer prepared an
elaborate essay to prove that steamships could
never cross the Atlantic. and his pamphlet was
issued just in time to be carried by the first
steamer that went to England. People once
believed that the heart was the scat of life and
health. 1t is now known that this organ is only
pump, simply keeping in motion what other
and more important organs of the body have
created and transformed. 1t was once supposed
that If person felt pain in the back, the liver
was derauged, If pain came In the lower chest
the lungs were affected and consumption was
near it is now known that pain in the back
indicates diseased kidneys while troubles in the
lower chest arise from dIsordered liver and
not imperfect lungs severe pain in the head
was once thought 10 come from some partial
arrangement ol the brain; it is now known that
troubles lu other parts Of the body and away
from the head cause headaches and that only
by removing the cause can the pain be cured.
1t il a matter Of
PRIVATE HISTORY
that General Washington was bed to death
His last Illness was slight, and caused princi-
pally by WEAKNESS physician was called who
patient became no better. Another doctor was
called, who again took away large amount OF
the vital huid. Thus IN succession ionf phNsl-
clans drew away the life Of a great man wii" was

The speaker then graphically described an
other period which came upon tho people, M
which they assigned the origin of all d -t t-ts TO
The stomach, and after showing ting iaIslty Of
this theory, and that the kidneys ana lNei were
the causes Of disease, and tha' many people are
suffering from kidney and liver troubles to-day
who DO not know, bni VINO should h"o" u ana
attend to them at once, continued.
