the prompt discharge of bis church

next morning bright and early. On the
way they had little misunderstanding
with their horse which resulted IN a
broken shaft and Mr.. Rogers also travel

the serpent in his way into Eden. Here
was dilemma. Only two hours until
Sunday school time and Sheridan fifteen

The Homely Apple.

Apples contain nourishment of a val
liable kind, and larger amount Of
phosphorus than any other fruit or veg

very important to sedentary men who
work their brains rather than their
muscles They also contain the acids
that are needed every day especially

matter, which, if retained in the sys-

No healthy person need fear any dam

cold and prompt and complete recovery

The following extract from letter
written by j. A. Starbuck, of Yorktown
Iowa, speaks for itself. 1.-TWO years ago,
in harvest time, a young man came in my
store and said he had been binding wheat
during the forenoon, and was so bad with
diarrhoea and collie pains, that he would
have to lay off unless he could get relief.
| took bottle of your diarrhoea remedy
from the shelf; gave him dose; sold him
the bottle, and gave him the bottle, and
told him 1 would give him the money
back if it did no good. He came back
next morning and said the single dose
did its work SO well. that lie not only kept
up his place during the afternoon, but
dad worked ali night; and had the price
of the dose gave him been three dollars,
it would have been cheap. | would fur
ther say, keep on with your good work.
You cannot recommend Your medicine
too highly. Chamberlain's Collie, Chole-
ia and Diarrhoea Remedy is one of the
greatest medicines of the age; it cannot
be beat. Wishing you much success and
prosperity which you richly deserve, re-

EVILS OF TEA AND COFFEE.

Extract from Lecture By DR.. j. III. Kel-
logg, of the Battle Creek Sanitarium.
Poets talk OF the "cup that cheers
but not inebriates," referring to either
tea or coffee, but these drinks do inc
briate, and if they cheer, it is only an
evidence of lnebriation. Tea and cof-
fee do, on large scale, what wine does
On small scale, because they are much
more extensively used. There is a
club in London which meets every
Saturday night to have spree
On tea, and some Of them get
under the table before they get through.
Less than two years ago two Boston
girls were arrested for being drunk and
aisorderly. They swore that they had
taken no liquor, and no proof could be
obtained that they had. But on in
resignation it appeared that they had
acquired the habit of chewing tea, and
carried it to the excess of intOXication.
A doctor told me short time ago that
his first case of delirium tremens was
that of an old lady from tea-drinking,
and it is known that inveterate tea
topers do reach this stage of intoxica-
ton sometimes. knew Of man some
time ago who!ha d delirium tremens from
the use of tobacco.
A physician to one Of the large manu-
featuring esta blishments in New En-
gland told me of a curious disease
which once broke out among the en-
ployes. Sometimes fifteen or twenty
girls were seized with delirium during
the day and would have to be carried
home and the disease seemed at first
quite puzzling. At length it was dis
covered that tea-chewing was prevalent
among the employees, and that they
brought supply daily in their pockets.
The girls were sent home to recover,
and when they resumed work, it
was necessary for some time to search
them every morning to make sure
that they did not take up the evil habit.
There is more drunkenness in a cup OF
tea than IN a like quantity of lager
beer, as has been proven by actual
analysis. Tea and coffee are more Sc
rious intoxicants than alcohol, because
they are more generally used. Their
evil results are not generally recog-
nized, but some of the most serious
of nervous disorders are born OF the use
of tea and coffee. Many people go
through life partially intoxicated on
tea from month to month and from
year TO year, and very large proper
tion of them are women.-Reported by
Helen L. Manning.

THE SITTING ROOM.
No Other Place so Perfectly Typifies the
Communism of the Family.

Communism of the Family.
No room in the house so perfectly
typifes the communism of family, the
true uniting in the diversity of the in.
dividuals, as the sitting-room. tits the
center of the social life of the house
hold. It is mothers ROOM" There
she is oftenest found in her moments OF
leisure, ready to hear, to sympathize,
to console and to advise.
Here the father frolics with his chill
dren, here they listen to song and
story and read aloud, here the troubles
of the day dwindle and disappear or are
softened and lessened by united SYM
pathizing and soothing surroundings;
here nuts and mild jokes are cracked
lend their flavor and juicy richness to
the homely scene. while without the
wind blows, the rain falls or the snow
flies.
To make this room the hearthstone,
its furnishings should contain elements
that appeal to the tastes and pursuits
of each of the members of the house
hold. There should be room. if posi-
BILE, for favorite chairs and shelves or
bookcases, and tables for each ones
choice of books and papers, and for I'M
disturbed corners and coy hooks, if
each has only chair and fOotStool, or
portion of a drawer or a curtained
shelf. Places where the studious, the
ambitious or the thoughtful can work
out their pet projects, or keep safely
their treasured plans and possessions,
ready for the sudden inspiration or the
industrious mood, which quite as often
seizes one amid the family chatter as
in the solitude of ones own room.
To secure all this will require con-
siderable outlay as well as much I'M
selfish thought on the part Of the home
maker. The outlay, however, can usu-
ally be modified. adding purchases from
time to time as family growth and taste
may show them to be desirable. In
deed, the true furnishing of such a
room, after certain point, must be
a matter OF growth. Given the bare
bones of chairs, tables and curtains, the
rounded form and vigorous expression
OF the sitting-rOOm must grow out of
the mental and moral life of the fam
lily, grow out of the social. intellectual
and spiritual food on which the family
feeds.
Ofcourse furnishing selected with this
aim in view will be asvaried as families
are, for what expresses comfort and
gives help and solace to one family
would be tiresome, inane or comfort
less to others.
Each home writes it's own history
sooner or later in it's furnishings and
arrangements. Even Strengthened
means-that oft-berated foe of family
luxury-can not prevent the telling of
the tale. Year by year slips by, pur-
chase after purchase is made, chapter
after chapter is written. What we most
desire we bend our circumstances to Sc
cure, and therefore the home does ex-
press, in the long run, what we are and
what we feel. This being true. let us
not % impatient; let us proceed
thoughtfully, unselfshly and carefully,
that our home center may not express
sordid lives, ungenerous natures or mar
row minds.-Harper's Weekly.
