FROM the lord bishop of Rochester be-
fore the Episcopal general convention
"There is subj ct which lies at the root
of all lay work, and of all clerical work,
and of all Episcopal work, and all the
conventions, and all the various philan-
thropic and literary institutions which
you have in this country-that is, the
battle with intemperance. You may build
as many churches as you like, you may
open as many free libraries as you please,
you may enlist new armies of lay soldiers
for Christ-but SO long as you let the
demon of intemperance haunt the homes
and corrupt the people of this country, SO
long as you permit the baneful influences
of the sale of liquor to go on with its
ravages without supreme effort and
struggle on your part, the church will be
useless, and your sermons will be useless,
and your laymen will be useless. be-
lieve he spoke without slightest extrava-
gance who said that all the ravages of
fire and pestilence and civil war are less
than of intemperance."

kick, and down they 60 like shot from
q gun. There is seconds pause, then a
whirl and roar, and minute of bated
breathing as the slender sled shoots in its
groove of ice between the black lines OF
spectators. 1t is dangerous sport, but
there is a secret about it. A ride on
toboggan is like galvanic shock. The
friction of the rapid motion on the thin
board over the rough ice electrifies and
thrills the rider. Every nerve tingles and
every muscle becomes rigid. Though it
lasts but few seconds, they are seconds
of strained enjoyment. The Marquis of
Lansdowne opened the grand slide named
in his honor. Half the girls in town
were there. His excellency climbed the
hill and mounted the steps of the slanting
wood platform, fifty feet high and one
hundred and sixty feet long, that gives
the toboggans the needed impetus. While
the birchen toy was being put in place he
flung off his coat of otter and beaver fur,
and stood before the delighted youths in
the full flannel uniform of the Lsnsdowne
Toboggan Club. Imagine how they yelled.
His companion, Mrs. Searle, wife of the
president of the club, sat on another to-
boggan. The noble marquis bent his I'M
limbered muscles 30 as to sit down and
wheel his legs under the curved dash
board of his sled, and, grasping the slen-
der rail by his sides, called out, "Quite
ready, thank you," to Mr.. Corstine, who
was to steer him, and who at once leaped
upon one haunch on the toboggan, and
with vigorou, kick sent it flying down
the precipice. His excellepcy was pleased
to put up his noble hand to keep his hat
and hair from blowing off together. Lord
Melgund put his lordly trousers on either
side of Mrs. Searle, on her toboggan, and
Mr.. Searle, as steerer, leaped on behind,
and sent his wife and her blue-blooded
escort tearing down the icy declivity, close
upon the ruler of the Canadas. The road
was kept clear for them, and they saw no
mishaps. They soon departed for the
masquerade skating carnival at the Vic
toria Rink, where the rest of the ladies
were in command of the festivities. They
left the joys of the side to hundreds Of
rosy girl, who sped down the ice with
flushed cheeks, parted lips, and sparkling
eyes, each girl leaning back upon the
shoulder of her steerer in full surrender
to pleasure. Sometimes one toboggar
ran upon another, sometimes toboggar
at full speed dashed into those who were
quitting one that had come to halt, 9th
ers dashed out of their grooves and tooh
rows of Outstanding men and women of
their feet, as though Calling battery
had raked them but at all this the girl,
sent up peals of laughter, and urged thu
steerers to hasten back to the summit
with their toboggans."

FROM the city treasurer's books in Bos-
ton Mrs. Rev. A. j. Gordon gathers the
facts that from the 200 extra licenses issued
there last year, but 500 900 was added to
the treasury, and $4,000 was drawn out
for increased expenses of police, etc, con
trolling the same. Deer Island cost $780,
900 more than last year. OF the 10,042
commitments there last year, over 1000
were for drunkenness, or crimes commit
ted while under influence of liquor. Ga
authority of the LAW and Order League,
over one thousand places of illegal sale
exist. If this were under prohibitory
law, what call there would be for its re-
peal.

Vital Questions.


Ask the most eminent physician
OF any school, what is the best thing in
the world for quieting and allaying all irri-
tation of the nerves and curing all forms
of nervous complaints, giving natural,
childlike refreshing sleep always,
And they will tell you unhesitatingly,
"Some form of Hops"
CHAPTER I.
Ask any or all Of the most eminent ply
sicians
What is the best and only remedy that
can be relied on to cure all diseases OF the
kidneys and urinary organs, such as Brights
disease, diabetes, retention or inability te
retain urine, and all the diseases and all
ments peculiar to women
And they will tell you explicitly and
emphatically, "Buchu."
Ask the same physicians:
What is the most reliable and surest
cure for all liver diseases or dyspepsia, con-
stipation, indigestion, biliousness, malarial
fever, ague, etc., and they will tell you:
Mandrake, or Dandelionw
Hence, when these remedies are com.
bined with Others equally valuable,
And compounded into Hop Bitters, such
wonderful and mysterious curative power
is developed, which is so varied in its ope-
rations that no disease or ill-health can
possibly exist or resist its power, and yet
it is harmless for the most frail woman,
weakest invalid, or smallest child to use.
