A NEW law in France declares that pub

thorization, on condition that they are
previously announced in Il declarati III Of
tho place, and hour when they are to
be held, signed by two persons one of
whom is domiciled in the commune where
the meeting is to be held, which must be
made twenty -four hours previously and
filed with a proper officer. The meeting
must not be prolonged beyond II o'clock
at night, and must be under the control of
committee Of three persons, who shall
maintain order and be responsible for all
infractions of the regulations. The bear
ing of this law Oh religious meeting for

that it relieves them from the necessity of
seeking previous authorization !; but the
necessity of finding a resident signatary
for the call to tho meeting and three per
sons who will publicly agree 10 he rcspon-
siblo for it's good conduct may operate as

pains, continue in his legs, and the rea-
son why suspicion is attached to these
points, by some Of the physicians, is that
there Is remote fear that the President

How to Kill tic Blues.

Generally speaking, if you are troubl-
ed with "the blues" and cannot tell
why, you may be certain that it springs
from physical weakness. Instead Of
lying on Il sofa and counting painful
ideas, if you are Responding lover,
a hypochondriac or valetudinarian,
you should be up and stirring yourself.
The blood of a melancholy man is
thick and slow, creeping sluggishly
through his veins, like muddy waters
in canal; the blood of your merry,
chirping philosopher is clear and quick,
brisk as the newly preached cham
payne. Try, therefore to set your blood
in motion. To effect this don't 90 to
guzzling down brandy-smashes, GIN
cocktails or any of the other Juggling
compounds in which alchol is DISCUS
ed; for every artificial stimulant will
drag you down two degrees for every
one 1t lifts you up. The devil always
beats us at barter. Try, rather. what
a smart walk will do for you; set your
pegs in motion on rough, rocky ground,
or hurry them up steep; dragged
hill; build stone wall; swing an ak over
a pile of hickory or rock-maple: turn
a grindstone; dig bitches; practice
ground and lofty tumbling;" pour
water into selves with the Danaides.
or, with Sisyphus, "up the high hill
heave huge round stone;;" in short do
anything that will start the prespira-
ton, and you will soon sease to have
your brains lined with black, as Bur
ton expresses it, or to rise in the morn
ing, as Cowper did, '1ike an internal
frog out of Acheron, crowned with the
ooze and mud of melancholy" Liter
ara Style.

Six Hundred Victims Of Whisky.

The CO-win landed on St. Lawrence
Island, having orders to investigate the
wholesale starvation of the natives. AT
the first village at which they landed all
were dead SO, also, at the second,
where fifty-four dead bodies were
counted, nearly all full grown males.
AT another place one hundred and fifty
persons women and children
were dead. At the next settlement
twelve dead bodies, and at the follow
ing thirty were found. All the inhabi-
tants on the north side of the island,
where whisky traders sold liquor, were
dead-not enc escaping. The general
starvation occurred two years ago last
winter. Since then the presence of the
Corwin in the Arctic has broken up this
inhuman whisky trading. The empty
whisky kegs were strewn all about. The
total number of dead bodies found on
st. Lawrence Island was over six hun
dred. The survivors say that the white
traders from Honolulu sold whisky.
which the natives bought and got
drunk, remaining so during the season
for laying in their winter supply of wal
rus snd seal. Photographs of these
dead bodies as they lie about. frozen

Treating an Epidemic.


The epidemic which has broken out
among bank cashiers attracts a great
deal Of attention. The effect Of the
disease is to make the cashier lose all
power to distinguish between what be-
longs to HIM and what to the deposi-
tors sf the bank. No system of treat
ment has as yet been definitely shown
TO be the best, but in two of the most
prominent cases the following methods
have been adopted
L. Newark treatment rather homeo-
pathic. Take the cashier to court.
have him give bail, and then send him
back TO the bank TO .straighten out his
accounts. BY going over the figures
again he will be convinced he did
wrong and will agree never to do SO any
more. Cure guaranteed, but the at
tack may occur again.
=. Kansas treatment electic a little
heroic. Take the cashier and tell him
you want your money If you don't
get it, take long rope with a moose at
one end. then, holding the cashiers
nose, insert his head in the moose. Pass
the other end of the rope over the
limb of a tree, then pull on that end
until the distance from the point of the
rope touching the tree to the toe of the
cashiers boot is less than the distance
from the limb of the tree to the ground.
Continue this treatment for several
minutes. Cure guaranteed. Attacks
never occur again.

Sound Advice to TeIemeel,us

You want to know, do you, my son,
why 1t is that, with all your manage
meEt, you can't live on Your salary.
and are always in debt at the end of the
year? Well, I'll tell you, Telemachus.
Why it is, and it won't cost you dollar
for the information. It's because you're
trying to have Il 81, 200 time ON 5000
salary, and it can't be did. Other men
than you have tried it. and failed right
along. A 5000 boarding house ana a
$500 livery stable bill just exactly cut
the last coupon off your salary, and
then how the man who makes your
clothes expects to get anything out of
you is more than you can tell him.
Yours is very simple case, my dear,
aud you can apply the remedies YOUR
self, and perform the necessary opera
ton without the presence of consult
ing surgeon. 'Will it hurt ?" NV poor
boy, you can bet your last bottom dol
lar that it will hurt. 1t will make you
squirm thousand times a day until
you get out of debt, and then you vii
feel as though you were in Paradise
Begin treatment at once the longer
you wait the worse your case will be
and the more you'll dread it.

Return Of Victoria Mooahul

The New York Times of Nov. %.
says: Mrs. Victoria c. Woodruff. af-
ter all absence of nealy five wears in
England, returned TO New York in the
osins, and yesterday received a large
numoer OF enthusiastic friends at the
residence OF one Of her sisters, No. AS
Lexington avenue. Mrs. Woodruff was
accompanied to this country by her
aged mother, her daughter, Zulu Maud
woodruff, who has been studying for
the dramatic stage IN Englsnd and
France, and her sister, Miss Tennie c.
Ciatiln. The voyage having been a tenn
pestuous one, he party was disposed
to seek rest for a few days, but the visit
ors were nevertheless cordially receiv-
ed. Mrs. Woodruff has not changed
much In appearance since she made
her home here, but talks more elo-
qnently perhaps than she did then.
one SAID that her reception in England.
especially among the higher classes,
was very tiattering, and that wherever
she lectured thee we're crowded bonses
70 near hef. She found the English, q
whoie-souled, generous people, and
curing her stay among them her life
could not have been more pleasant
than 1t was. She visited France, Spain,
Germany and Switzerland with her sis
ter, Miss Clalin, whose health was pre-
earlous. Wherever they went they
were pleasantly received. The news
papers highly commended her public
utterances, and she was proud of the
TACT that so agreeable a change had
taken place after the exciting DAYS in
New York when she was forced to bat
tie for her freedom. She comes to
America to visit friends, and will likely
enter upon lecture tour throughout
the country. 1t is quite possible that
she will conclude to remain here. She
takes a deep interest in the proposed
stage career of her daughter. This is
the young lady who was published far
and wide in this country as the intend
ed bride Of Lord Colin Campbell, broth
er Of the Marquis of Lorne. After re-
manning in this city few days Mrs.
Woodruff will go to Boston.

A VALUABLE DISCOVERY.
Important to the Public as We'll ,
The Medical HrnfeSsinn


the Medical Profession
haHs Jomrn0j Of Health, referring to Con
sumption, makes the following important state
ment
Consumption usually begins with a slight, dry
cough in the morning, then, on going to bed, get
ting mere and more frequent, with more and more
phlegm increasing debility, thinness of flesh
shortness of breath, and quiekness of pulse. In
fatal cases its average course is about two years
hence the Importance OF arresting the disease al
as early stage as possible and the sooner "a
tional means employed for this purpose tn,
greater the chance of success The disease is
owing to an irritation commencing in tine throat
and extending to the lungs so that their action
is interfered with, and the blood does not receive
sufficient oxygen to purify it. The most marked
sign of lung disease is emaeation, and the most
positive indication of returning health is increase
in weight"
So speaks Halls Jomp.aI u Heaith. and we
may add that in desperate cases. and in fact, in
all cases OF Consumption, or troubles OF The throat
and lungs, immediate relief may be obtained and
y permanent cure effected by the use of Dr. VIM
Halls Balsam for the Lungs medicine known
for more than thirty-fv yeas as an unfailine
remedy for coughs, colds bronchitis and all pui.
monary and pectoral diseases. That the wors
cases of consumption have been cured by the us,
of Halls Balsam has been attested by the thou.
sands who have used it, or have been cognizant
OF its wonderful remedial efficacy
