Fighting Barbarism.

What one person can do is well illus
trated by the work carried on in Chi
cago by Mrs. Ida Bruun, of the Indiana
Street mission. Mrs. Bruun and her hus-
band lived in part of the city where, it
is said, there are about eighty drinking
saloons within stones throw of one an
other. The district is frequented by the
lake sailors and laborers. They are most
~ Scandinavians and Italians, and it is
said that all languages but English can
be heard in the quarter.
Mrs. Bruun was herself Norwegian by
birth. Her husband was painter, work
ing by the day. The woman watched
the poor neighborhood growing more
filthy, squalid and drunken year by
year-drifting into that civilized bar
barism which is infinitely lower in deg
radiation and more hopeless than the bar
barism of the wilds Of Africa. She and
her husband resolved to do what they
could to save it.
The W. G. T. U. helped Mrs. Bruun a
little, and she rented hall, not shade
better in appearance than the buildings
around it, and began her work. She es-
tablished Gospel meetings, a Sunday
school and free reading room. She and
her husband live in part of the hall.
Meetings are appointed for each nation
atty in its own language. Sailors come
there and sing sacred words to the airs
of their old songs. The Scandinavian
meetings Mrs. Bruun conducts herself.
Often the only woman among fifty or
hundred men, hymn book in hand, she
leads the singing and addresses her audi
ence in the strong, homely words she and
they understand best. Temperance work
goes hand in hand with the religious
work, and many stalwart sailor is keep
ing the pledge he signed for Mrs. Bruun
As many of the meetings as possible and
the Sunday school are conducted in Eng
lish, to teach the foreigners that lam
guage. The Sunday school has 100 mem
bers. Mrs. Bruun is doing for Chicago a
work moi unlike that done for New York
years aSo at the Five Points.

Cholera in Michigan.

DIR. F. D. Larke, of Rogers City,
Michigan, says the epidemic OF last
year in Presque Isle County, in
which so many persons lost their
lives, was choleric dysentery instead
of cholera as first reported. He used
Chamberlain's Collc, Cholera and
Diarrhna Remedy and says it sue
ceeded, where all other remedies
failed. Not single case was lost in
which it was used. This Remedy is
the most reliable and most successful
medicine known for collie, cholera

The constitutional convention of
Montana has voted to exclude the
Chinese, and that of Idaho to eX-
clude the Mormons. Both measures
have ample Justification, especially
the latter. While the Chinese are
not q desirable class of citizens they
cannot be charged with disobeying
the laws, q virtue that cannot be
urged in behalf of the Mormons, who
boldly declare that their duties to the
state are of secondary consequence to
their duties to their church. The
new states will be better off without
either element.

Scores of hapless men and women are
still applying themselves to the civil SER
vice examinations. Only fourth of
them pass, and of these only about six
out of hundred secure appointments.
Those who are left out, although they
have passed the examination, need not
be wholly without hope. The civil SER
vice certificates will be proof Of their
knowledge, anyhow, and will help them
in getting places elsewhere.

Enlisting Soldiers.

It is not so easy by half to enlist in the
United States army as it is supposed to
be. A young man who is no good any
where else would be no good in the
army, and Uncle Sam will not have him.
In our large cities there are recruiting
Offices constantly open for all branches
of the service, but only about one in six
of those who apply is accepted by the
examining officer. Thus the regiments
of the regular army are never full.
In general, the man who is admitted
into the service must be 81 years old or
over, and have no one dependent on him
for support He must tell the officer
where he was born and who his parents
were. He must not be under feet 4
inches in height, and must be able to
swell up his chest to a given figure to
indicate his wind power, to be ready, If
in the course of his warlike career he
should ever be called on to run and that
suddenly. Bad teeth rule the applicant
out. He is made to read number OF
letters and words across room, that it
may be ascertained whether he is
short sighted. Then he is undressed and
examined for marks of disease or acct
dent. He is asked particularly if he has
ever been in a Jail or penitentiary.
The young man who goes on tear
and then thinks to make his family feel
bad by "'listing into the army" is not
accepted if the recruiting officer detects
the slightest trace of liquor on him. A
man who desires to enlist while drunk
is not permitted to do so, more partic-
ularly as he generally desires to back
out of it as soon as he is sober. In brief,
the men Uncle Sam wants are exactly
the men wanted everywhere else-those
who are steady, temperate, honest, in
telligent and in perfect good health and
sound of wind and limb. It is cheerful
to know, too, that there are no regula-
tons requiring a private to perform
mental service for an officer, and he
may decline to do such service.

HYGIENE, August 81, 1889.
EDITOR OF WoMAN's CHRONICLE: We left
Hygiene for the foothills-mountains you would
call them-ten of us in two large wagons at
am. We stopped little this side of jamestown,
or Jimtown as it is Called at convenient place
beside the stream (Jim Creek), and took our din
ners which we're prepared before we started.
After dinner we drove on about four miles beyond
Jimtown, to camping place near which we were
told mountain raspberres grew in great abundance.
We had driven twenty three miles, steep upgrade
most of the way, and it was O'clock but as we
intended to come home the following day, we de-
termined to find the berries that night, so six of
us took buckets and began to climb, and right
there the most laughable performance commenced
One woman, well up in the forties and not over
strong, was persuaded to avail herself of the help
of horseback ride as far as it was possible for
horse to 90, which was only about three-tourths OF
mile. No saddles were along, but brave 49,
year-old boy undertook to engineer the affair He
mounted the barebacked horse, rode up to stump
on which the trembling woman stood, and with
many misglyings she took her seat behind him and
began her first journey on horses back. 1t is
hard to tell which of the three had the hardest
time, the horse, the boy, or the woman. The road
was rocky and crooked and at an angle of at least
forty degrees. The woman held on to the boy in
a most extraordinary manner the boy held on to
the horse, and the horse (poor thing) held her
own With the light air and heavy load there was
a deal of putting, and every few rods they had to
stop, turn half way round and hitch forward on
the horse. 1t was almost impossible to keep on
at all on such grade. At last they safely reached
horse-line (why not, as well as tmber-lne), where
we all took to our feet for another quarter of
mile 1t was hard climb to what appeared to be
a huge gateway through the rocks. All of us had
expected to see rough and rocky place, and we
did; but we were not prepared to see it "stood on
edge" But there we were, between nine and ten
thousand feet above sea level, and before or be-
meath us thousand acres of berries growing from
between rocks and among the charred remains of
what had once been quite a forest. Many of the
trees were still standing, faithful watchers over the
PROSTATE forms of their less sturdy companions.
We looked down over mile or more Git may have
been ten, Colrado distances are so decetful,) of
that complex scenery, and you may think we
turned back to camp without gathering any berries,
