To be a true follower of
Hahnemann and obtain the best
results in using Homeopathic Re-
NEEDLES, several things must be
considered.
In the first place, the Medicine
must be fresh. While few months
will not impair the medicinal pro.
perties of Homeopathic Remedies
yet it is evident that with age it
value as a medicine will have de-
preciated.
Second1y-Homeopathic Rene
dies must have proper care. Being
very sensitive to light and atmos-
pheric changes, they must be pro-
tected from strong lights and damp
air.
That they should be kept separate
from odors of strong and powerful
drugs, must not be ignored.
When these precautions have been
complied with, Homeopathic Re-
NEEDLES viii have a fair chance in
combating diseases.
We have recently added to our
stock, not only a complete line of

There has been a great deal of
severe comment on the conduct of
the owners and captain of the ship
John c. Potter for bringing fifty
Japanese from Honolulu packed
away in the hold with the sugar
cargo. They were treated like so
many hogs, and to add to their
misery, the ship was caught in a
heavy gale, which lasted many
hours. Worse than this, they were
given no sleeping or toilet accom-
modations. The vessel lost consid-

Florence Blythe, the famous

John McNulty, who murdered

has finally been sentenced to be
hung on August 18th.
William E. Holloway, manager
of the firm of j. NJ. Grace & Co.,
was thrown from his horse the

AMERICAS FA sTEsT TRAIN.

The seventy-minute flyer which the
Reading Company put on it's Allan
tic City branch on Saturday is claim
ed by the officials Of that company
to be the fastest scheduled train in
America, if not in the world. Ten
minutes are allowed for the ferry
trip from this city to Kaighn P oint,
leaving sixty minutes for the 55.5
miles from the station to Atlantic
City. For the first two miles, how
ever, no speed can be made on ac-
count of the grade crossing of the
West Jersey railroad, so that as a
matter of fact the remaining $50
miles have to be made in fifty-four or
fifty-flve minutes, which is practical
ly sixty miles an hour for that dis
tance. On Saturday the train, which
consisted Of eight cars carrying two
hundred and eighty persons, pulled
out of the station minute late, but
this was made up on the run, and
Atlantic City was reached exactly on
time. For a few miles the Empire
State express of the New York Cen
trail railroad is scheduled to run at a
rate exceeding sixty miles an hour,
but for distance as great as that
from Philadelphia to Atlantic City,
the Readings seventy-minute flyer is
believed to have no equal in speed

THE CARE OF THE EYES.

Not long ago an advertisement
was read in which an Optician prom
Used to examine the eyes of all who
came to him free of charge, and to
provide glasses for the same at mod
crate rates. The object of this free
examination was evidently to pro-
vide customers for the sale of the
glasses and spectacles. The adver-
tiser may have been skilled oculist,
and perfectly able to provide for the
needs of his patients, but is it worth
while to make the experiment? Any
one who has been threatened with
blindness will protest against rum
ming any risk in the trea tment of the
eyes Sight is the most blessed of all
the five physical senses. Blindness,
or the thought of blindness, seems
like a living death, and only those
who have experienced the fear can
understand it. Do not take any
risks with your sight. Do not ex-
pertinent with your eyes if they are
at the risk of losing your eyesight is
foolishness. The eye is one of the
most delicate of organs, and easily
ruined and the sight destroyed.
There is no excuse for negligence in
the matter; there is no use to try
home or cheap remedies. If your
sight is failing, if your eyes are out
of order, hesitate not for moment,
but consult a competent oculist at
once, and seek none but the best.
Sight is too valuable and precious to
be trifled with. Those who have
suffered will tell you the misery en-
tailed. There are hospitals where
the eyes are treated free in many
cities by the best oculists, so it is not
a question of money. And the warn
ing cannot be repeated too often
do not trifle with your eyesight un-
der any consideration Harper's

CONCERNING WOMAN,

The Presbvterians, like all other
denominations, are moving forward.
At the General Assembly in session
at Pittsburg, Pa, a woman's voice
was heard for the first time on the
floor of the assembly, and hereafter
they are to have representatives in
that body.
At recent meeting of the trustees
of Tufts College it was voted that
the college be opened to women in
the undergraduate departments on
the same terms and conditions as to
men, it being understood that for
the present the college will not be
able to furnish boarding accommoda-
tons" Women will also be adj
nitted to the divinity school on the
same terms.
This matter has been under con-
temptation for some time past, and
the decision will be hailed with joy
by many, whom President Capen
speaks of as 1.-The constantly increas-
ing number of women looking to
the college for the completion of
their training, and that the wom-
ems colleges cannot begin to meet
the demand, and who have realized
that the older colleges with their
traditions and their equipments are
needed for their more perfect educa-
ton"

GOOD HOT WEA TIER ADVICE.

On these hot days bear in mind the
injunction, Keep COOL" There is
such a thing as keeping cool even on
a warm day-cool in mind if not in
body-restful of soul, of nerves and
of heart.
1t is wonderful how much cooler a
man is who is contented, and who is
peaceful, calm and of a happy dispo-
sition, than one who is fretful, weari-
some and forlorn. Nature prescrlbes
for ones comfort in these hot periods,
and her prescription is not to eat
much heating food, nor to drink too
much cooling liquors, and none at all
of intoxicants, no matter how CRATE
full they may seem to be as they come
from the ice. Better drink refresh
ing fruit acid preparation like lemon
ade or raspberry sherbet. Drink milk
at its natural temperature, and not
ice cold.
Perhaps the most refreshing sum-
mer drink is a glass of greatly diluted
tea, iced, and favored with slice of
lemon. Butternilk is good drink

ONE CAUSE OF LIES MIsERIEs.

One half of the misery of life at
least, if not more, comes to people
from not being able to make both
ends meet; and yet great deal OF
this carking care and worry OF
mind is unnecessary. 1t is sad to
think indeed, how much of the mis-
erv of life is absolutely needless.
Many man, for instance, with
large, expensive family, will toll on
and break down prematurely,
whereas if he had simply been in the
habit of discussing matters IN frank
and friendly way with his family,
needless luxuries would be given up
and the idle would have willingly
put their shoulder to the wheel.
This is not often done; the father
keeps his business affairs to himself
and the family become accust omed
to his grumbling over expenses; and
when real trouble comes he stands
alone with none to help him-and 1t
is his own fault.
Keeping up appearances, too, IS
often a fatally disastrous mistake;
and yet of all idiotic things this
seems the most needless. Neverthe-
less, it must be one of the strongest
tendencies of human nature, for it
has brought many good man to
ruin, and for what good What
possible good can it do us to have
our neighbors know that we keep
two horses instead ofone, and so on
in like ratio? Truly, man with all
his intellect is a complex creature
and tangles himself voluntarily, it
would seem, in net of his own
weaving.

ONE DIVINE RIGHT OF CHILDREN

As to keeping children too clean
anything is more disastrous. The
divine right to be gloriously dirty
large portion of the time, when dirt
is a necessary consequence of direct,
useful, friendly contact with all sorts
of interesting and helpful things, is
too clear to be denied. The children
who have to think of their clothes
before playing with the dog, digging
in the sand, helping the stableman,
working in the shed, building a
bridge, or wedding the garden, never
get halt their legitimate enjoyment
out of life. Thrice happy is the
country child, or the one who can
spend part of his young life among
living things, near to Natures heart.
How blessed is the little toddling
thing, who can lie fat in the sun
shine and drink in the beauty Of the
green things growing;' who can
live among the little animals, his
