this invention will overcome the frigld

be far more satisfactory to receive it in
the tones in which it was spoken, and
something more than the words, too,

Sufferers are not generally aware that
these diseases are contagious, or that they
are due to the presence Of living parasites
in the lining membrane of the nose ano
eustachian tubes. Microscopic research,
however, has proved this to be fact, and
the result of this discovery is that Simple
remedy has been formulated whereby
Catarrh, Hay Fever and Catarrhal Deafness
are permanently cured in from one to three
simple applications made at home by the
patient once in two weeks.

Leaving the exhibition and turning
our attention to other objects of inter
est, I might mention the progress that
electricity is making in Boston. Added
to the thorough instruction in electrical
engineering given in the Massachusetts
Institute of Technology and other
schools, are courses of lectures given for
the purpose of educating men in the
practical application of Electricity. This
instruction is needed, for, though no re-
cent discoveries are so valuable as those
concerning the application of electricity
to useful purposes, nowhere is more
care and knowledge necessary than in
its use, and limo direction can inventive
talent be used to greater advantage to
tne race than in overcoming this dan
ger. The current safely directed is
blessing, but destructive and deadly in
its misuse, as the late Boston fire and
alarmingly frequent accidents in other
cities can testify. The greatest need
to-day in mechanics is safety in the use
of the electric current, so we may not SO
often have occasion to make use Of this

From a pamphlet just issued, a copy
of which has been handed our editor by
Miss Anna A. Gordon, private secretary of
Miss Frances L. Willard, we make the fol-
lowing extracts explanatory of the work Of
the National W. c. r. L. The circular in
question nswer the questions What it 1t?
Why is 1t? Who are its Leaders,. How
does it Work.
The National Woman's Christian Tenn
perance Union, with its forty-three auxil-
larry State and eight Territorial Unions,
besides that OF the District of Columbia, is
the largest society ever composed exclusive
ly of women and conducted entirely by
them. 1t has been organized in every State
and Territory of the nation, and locally in
about ten thousand towns and cities. Great
Britain, Canada and Australia, Hawaiian
Islands, New Zealand, India and Japan,
Madagascar and South Africa, nave also
organized. As a general estimate (the re-
turns being incomplete) We think the num-
Der of local Unions in the United States
about 10000 including Young Woman's
Christian Temperance Unions, with a mem
bcrship OF about 200 900, and a following
of go, 900. This Society is the lineal
descendant of the Great Temperance Cru
SADIE of 1884, and is a union OF Christian
women for educating the young; forming a
better public sentiment; reforming the
drinking classes; transforming by the pow
er Of Divine Grace those who are enslaved
by alcohol; and securing the entire aboli-
ton of the liquor traffic.
Tho National Woman's Christian Tenn
perance Union has now been organized
fifteen years. It's work is well known, be-
ing comprised under the general divisions
OF Preventive, Educational, Evangelistic,
Social and Legal, besides the Department
Of Organization. It's auxiliaries have been,
confessedly, the chief factors in State
campaigns for statutory prohibition and
constitutional amendment. 1t began the
movement for Scientific Temperance educa-
ton in the public schools, having been
Instrumental in securing laws to that end

Thanks to the daily and weekly papers,
to the reporters and everybody connected
with the newspapers, We know quite if not
altogether as much about the Leconey
murder case as those present every day at
the trial. The public all over the country
are sitting in Judgment in the case and
have already decided the matter, although
certainly not all the same way.
Some think they see for Leconey, ac-
cording to evidence given by Murray and
Smith, a title clear for his way 10 the gal
lows, while others debating it from an
altogether different standpoint say that
with Smith discredited and Murray proven
a liar there remains not q single peg to
hang an objection against Leconey, much
less to hang the accused.
There are some things in Leconey's
favor, not the least, as it strikes US, being
the remarkable unanimity with which his
neighbors and relatives stand by him and
the insistancc with which they protest
their belief in his innocence. They declare
the accused of humane, kindly disposition
who" as one put it, would not hurt a
pig" OF course er parte evidence Of this
kind will have but little weight with the
jury in the absence of mora direct evidence
bearing on his innocence, but still it Is
better for him, doubtless. Than were it
the other way. In the meantime we can
afford to wait, trusting that justice, though
tardy, will in this be sure and that the
fer the penalty of the awful crime.
