Remember that with feeble infants who do not
thrive on their mothers milk or the best prepared
foods in the market, w E REQ EST NO CHANGE
OF FOOD, but add 5 or more drops four times mes
daily of Murdocks Liquid Food, and you will find
that their lost or needed vitality will be restored
to them in less than thirty days.
Not a case of Cholera lnfantum known yne eI1s
Murdocks Liquid Food has beenused, nor death
from Cholera Infantum where 1t has been pre-

The questionoRten asked-how does Murdock's

MurdoclS's Liquid Food contains 14.10 per cent.

any. Common food does not contain over one per
cent. that is available
food, and common food contains $3.50; the other
1t contains 0.42 of ash, which Is lndigestlble
matter. The others contain from $50 to 1874
In alcoholic extracts G.95. The other prep
arations are all TONES, as they contain from

These facts show why Murdocl1s Liquid Food
excels all other foods and preparations in making

and on it our life depends. Murdecks Liquid

SENSATIONAL DISCLOSURES w.
w. Downs made the first of his long.prom-
ised sensational disclosures in Boston yes
terday in defense of his character, and the
affair is likely to prove ten.days' wonder.
At his regular meeting in Burnstead Hall a
long series of resolutions were read review
ing the call of Mr.. Downs to the church,
the revival he inaugurated, the efforts OF
Deacon Joseph Story to secure his removal,
tho prosecutions of the pastor. and the long
suffering of the latter in his efforts to secure
q reconciliation. The resolutions then expel
Deacon Story on the ground of adultery
and his failure to prove his innocence OF
that charge as he promised he would do by
by the testimony ofa physician as to bis
impotency. In connection with the resolu.
tions an affidavit was read from sister of a
church confessing to the act of adultery
with Deacon Story, and to having commit
ted and submitted to other acts of unlawful
familiarity with him. The affidavit asserts
that death would have been preferable to
this confession and the publicity and trouble
that will follow, but that it is made because
Deacon Story is at the bottom of the perse.
cutions which Mr.. Downs has endured
The sister appeared before meeting of the
church two weeks ago and made her con.
fession. Addresses were made in her be.
half, numberless prayers were offered, and
she was forgiven.

VICTIMS OF THE YACHT DIsAsTER.-The
recent yacht disaster at Sandy Hook is the
main theme of conversation in and around
New York. The body of Miss Bessie Mer.
ritt was recovered from the yacht yesterday.
The bodies of Mrs. Stevens, Miss Mamie +.
Stevens, Miss Emma Merritt, Miss Maud E.
Rettew, Mrs. Cora E. Askin, and Mr.. Ches'
ter Clarke were taken to Philadelphia. The
yacht has been raised and pumped out. She
will be taken to Brooklyn. The survivors
bore many marks of dreadful experience.
The body of Chester Clarke was consider
ably disigursd, and told plainly of his fran
tic fight for life while in the cabin below.
Chester Clark, the telegraph operator, was
engaged to be married to Miss Rsltew, and
Miss Rottew's friend. Miss Mamie Stevens,
was engaged to Mr.. Potter, one of the sur
vivors of the ill.starred pleasure party. The
Yacht which met with the disaster was res-
cued from perilous position on the ice oil
Rappahannock river last winter.

occasion, similar to those saw at Quebec.

Cardinal Gibbons, aud seemed to wear his
new houor5 more easily. The gorgeous
looking funct:ouaries of whom | spoke in
former letter are, it seems, the church
beadles. To-day Solomon in all his glory
could scarcely have been more splendidly
arrayed. They wore full red dress with
shH. belled coats, radiant with gold lace
and scarlet baldrcs from which depended
long swords Their chief, a man of six feet
or over, and large in proportion, carried
long rod with ponderous gold head, with
which he struck the floor as he walked
about to the evident terror Of the 'garcons"
inclined to play and of the women who
stood on tho seats, but got down when he
came by. FIDELIs.
