Mr., E. M. CLIFFORD, of the Norway Iron
Works, Boston, Mass, gave the following
description to q Boston Globe representative
as suggesting the special propriety Of the
points he makes in favor of the popular
article mentioned below. Mr.. Clifford OBJ
serves: 81 am connected with the Norway
Iron Works, one of the largest manufactur-
ing concerns in the country. There is more
st. Jacobs Oil used by the men in the works
than l would like to state, lest you would
put me down as a romancer. They use it
right along for everything, and it does its
work every time. / never thought any
thing advertised in the papers could take
such hold among men. You see those
who work in hot iron are constantly receiv-
ing hurts in one way or another. the most
common being burns. Well, there is moth
ing equal to st. Jacobs Oil for burns. 1t
takes all the fire out instantly-not after
continued applications-bu instantly.
Therefore, you will at once perceive that it
is an invaluable remedy to men who are
constantly having their flesh singed by
red-hot iron. Oh. yes, many have used it in
rheumatic affections, and i have yet to
hear the first man say it failed to give
relief. They keep it in their families, too
and all swear by it. At the works the men
club in and buy it and place it in the hands
of the carrenter who dispenses it when
occasion requires lhere is seldom day
when it is not called for. All use it, You
must understand that a cut from hot iron
is not like slash with knife or any other
cold instrument. The iron not only cuts
but it destroys the tissues and leaves a
ghastly, quivering wound exposed to the
air, and fainting agonized wretch
writhing with pain. Many time l
have seen a poor fellow thus situated
soothed and relieved by the st.
Jacobs OIL as if by magic. Only the
other day boy got frightfully cut with a
piece of hot wire rod while at work. The
wound was very bad one. He suffered in,
tensely, and was fainting with pain. As
soon as possible, a bottle of the st. Jacob,
Oil was brought from the carpenters chest
and the wonderful liquid was poured int
the wound, which was in the calf of the
leg. The relief was immediate, and th,
boy went to work short time afterward
apparently unmindful of what otherwis,
would have undoubtedly laid him up"

ODD FELLOWS.


There is now in session at odd Fellows
Hall in Baltimore most important com
mittee, consisting of Hon. Henry +. CAREY,
of Maryland; Hon. Charles M. Busbee, of
North Carolina; Hon. VIM. Il. Hazlett, of
Ohio; Hon. John T. Jakes, of Delaware;
and Hon. Joseph T. Hoke, of West Vir-
ginia. The labors of this committee are ex-
pected TO result in q thorough renovation
and peIfectiDg of the ritual of Odd-Fellow-
ship throughout the world. In September,
1880, at Toronto, Canada, the Sovereign
Grand Lodge of the l. o. O. +. adopted a
new form of ritual for its subordinate
lodges, as well as for the European and
Australian and other Jurisdictions which it
had established. The ritual in use from
the beginning was abrogated, and three de-
grees of extraordinary merit adopted in
place Of the five then in use. The change
proved grand success. At the session
held in Cincinnati in September last it was
decided that another radical change should
be made, viz: That all subordinate lodges
should be required on and after the 1st of
July next to work in the third degree the
business of the lodges from the beginning
having been conducted wholly in the initi-
a,ory degree. The committee now in ses.
sion have nearly completed their labors,
and the new forms are passing into the
hands of the printer. The fact that the
committee have full powers and are au-
thorized to use large discretion has en-
abled them to act with decision in the
premises. A proper book, containing all
the new matter, will be issued in a few
weeks, to be followed by an entire revision
in one volume of the combined publications
now known as the Charge Book" and
Degree Book" respectively. The printing
committee of the Sovereign Grand Lodge
also met on Thursday last in Baltimore,
consisting of Hon. Joshua Vansant, of
Maryland; John M. JONES' grand secretary
of the Grand Lodge of Maryland; Theodore
A. Ross, grand secretary of the Sovereign
Grand Lodge. and Richard II. Ewbanks,
Esq, of Delaware. The latter committee
have charge of the printing of these i'm
portant revisions, and have concluded to
offer to the subordinate lodges the combined
volume of the new work for the nominal
sum of fifty cents upon the return of a
Charge Book and Degree Book. These
new versions will be translated and pub
lished into the German, French, Spanish,
Norwegian Bohemian and other languages
and will from the first day of July next be
come the mystic language of the vast and
world wide Order of Odd Fellowship.
