Nearly 100, 900 Gases Treated.

such worldwide reputation in lung and

We take pleasure in announcing to the public
the fact that we have introduced the COM

tear off collars loosen the waist, and call for a
fan to displace the sitting and bring fresher
to resorts where the air contains more oxygen,
and mountains are asoended to breathe the
ozone, which is light and ascendss from the
earth.
Oxygen and ozone are gases, and must be
stored up and used by inhaling them. Our
apparatus for storing and giving these gases,
compounded with other suitable agents, is per.
tect; and, although they are not cure-all, yet
they are undoubtedly the greatest invention
made In the last 20 years In any departme ent of
medicine, and the results are truly wonderful.
Oxygen acts by purifying the blood, thereby
increasing the circulation, promotes absorp-
ton, improves digestion and assimilation, In
creases the capab0ity of the lungs, and acts as
gentle stimulant to the nervous system.

says: The Compound Oxygen treatment is the
greatest discovery of the Nineteenth Century,

4 MORA VAN EASTER,

Bethlehem, Penn, is the headquar- ters of the Moravian church in this country. Originally the whole town belonged to the church and the mem- bers were like large family, all work ing for their common welfare. It is an old town and has many quaint things about 1t yet, but with the progress of civilization the church has been obliged to part with some of its property, and the town is not SO distinctly Moravian in its character as formerly. Some of the old customs are still kept up, how eyer, and one of the prettiest Is the celebration of Easter.
 The celebration is begun early in the morning, before daylight, about 8 o'clock, by the carol singers. They go around the streets, with 8 trombone choir" of eight instruments, playing very sweetly and singing Easter carols. But the principal thing is the service in the church at 4:3O g. m. A special ser vice is appointed in the liturgy for

Easter morning, which is very appro- priate. The large church is always filled, and many cannot gain admission; the Moravian hymns are peculiar for their slow, rolling motion, and they are particularly solemn on this occasion. A large and well-drilled choir lead the singing, which is very hearty, and with the beautiful array of flowers, early morning half-hght, and the solemn words of the preacher make service never to be forgotten. At the close of the church service procession is formed, led by the trombone choir, and the march to the grave yard begun, while the throng sings one of their we'll known hymns. Arrived at the grave yard large hollow square is formed, with the musicians and ministers in the centre. AS the service goes on, the music takes on more joyful movement, and during the singing of a soul-stirr- ing resurrection hymn the sun always rises, as the service is accurately timed, and the rising sun becomes living symbol of the resurrection of our Lord.
 On stormy Easters the service has to be concluded in the church, and there is always great rejoicing over pleasant Easter. The grave yard is on top of a hill and all the graves are alike, each with single flat rectangular stone, no distinction being made between rich and poor in the last earthly resting place. At the conclusion of the service there is general exchange of Easter greetings and wishes, many of them in German, for great part of the Moravi- ans are Germans, and regular services are held in German in the chapel, though those in the church are always in English. The whole service is a most impressive and solemn one.
 In the Harpers Weekly about year ago was .an illustrated article on the Moravians, with accounts of some of their customs. particularly the Easter celebration.
 The first school for the higher educa- tion of women in this country was established by the Moravians about the beginning of the century, and is still maintained. The Moravian theological seminary is also located there.

Deafness Can't Be Cured

by local application, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies Deafness is caused by an infamed con- dition of the mucus lining of the Eusta- ehian Tube. When this tube gets lnfamed you have rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entire ly closed deafness is the result, and un- less the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an infamed condition of the mucus surfaces.
 We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by Cata1rh) that we cannot cure by taking Halls Catarrh Cure. Send for circu- lars, free.

Governor Martin, of Kansas, in his last message to the Legislature, says !: Fully nine-tenths of the drinking and drunkenness prevalent in Kansas eight years ago, have been abolished, and I affirm with earnestness and emphasis that this state is to-day the most tenn perate, orderly, sober community of people in the civilized world. The abo- ition of the saloons has not only pro- noted the personal happiness and gen. eral prosperity of our citizens, but it has enormously diminished crime, filled thousands of homes, where vice and want and wretchedness once prevailed, with peace, plenty and contentment, and has materially increased the trade and business of those engaged in the sale of useful and wholesome articles of mer- chandise. Notwithstanding the fact that the population of the state is steadily increasing, the number of crim- inals confined in our penitentiary is steadily decreasing. Many of our jails are empty, and all show 8 marked fall ing off in the number of prisoners con- fined. The dockets of our courts are no longer burdened with long lists of criminal cases. In the capital district, containing population of nearly sixty thousand, not a single criminal case was on the docket when the present term began. The business of the police courts of our larger cities has dwindled to one-fourth of its former proportions, while in cities of the second and third class, the occupation of police authori- ties is practically gone"
