Tho Third Charge of ileresy Considered
by the Presbytery.
CINCINNATI, Nov. 29.--The entire fore
noon session OF the prcsbytery was spent
i'm discussing the sufilcicncy in form and
legal effect Of the third charge and spcci-
fications against Professor Smith. At tho
afternoon session vote was taken on the
question of sustaining sufflciency in the
form and legal effect Of tho third charge.
II was sustained 40 TO %, but the vote
showed two members of tho court. Rev.
Hugh Gilcbrist and Rev. c. +. Walker,
had come over TO the side of tho accused.
Walker. in discussing the matter said 10
all ministers holding Smiths views are to
be subjected to trials, the presbyiery will
have enough of hcrcsy trials to keep II
busy for three years. The committee was
then asked to amend the first speciflca-
tion by inserting an additional citation
from Smiths pamphlet. Smith objected
that this deprived him of the right to 10
days notice of the charges and spccifica-
tions. and after hot debate the amend
mcnt was disallowed and the specifica-
tions approved. The court is now ready
for formal trial.

PHILADELPHIA. Pa, Nov. 29.-President
Mcleod of the Reading railroad testified

tigating the coal combine, and said coal
roads were not bound by prices fixed by
sales agents, but generally adhered to
them because of agents thoroughly posted

concerted action among coal producers
tho market would soon become glutted,
prices go 10 pieces. weaker ones go 10 the
wall and prices rebound to higher figures

quently with butter. For a gravy, use
a teacupful of the broth it was boiled
in, season to taste with butter, pepper,
salt and catsup. Garnish the dish on
which the tongue is laid with parsley
or slices of lemon if you have them,
and serve hot.-Orange Judd Farmer.
Mock Turtle Soup: Clean and wash
a Calls head, split it in two, save the
brains, boil the head until tender in
plenty of water; put slice of fat ham,
bunch of parsley cut small. sprig of
thyme, two leeks cut small, six cloves,
teaspoonful of pepper and three
ounces OF butter into a stewpan, and
fry them nice brown; then add the
water in which the head was boiled,
cut the meat from the head in neat,
square pieces, and put them in the
soup; add one lemon sliced thin, and
cayenne pc oper and salt to taste; let it
simmer gently for two hours, then
get.
About Brushing the Teeth: The
question is often asked, How often
should the teeth be brushed? After
every meal, and just before retiring,
should be the rule with every body; but
as this may seem to be so much of a
task to some as to discourage them al
together, safe rule, which all can fol-
low conveniently. would be to brush
them every night and morning; this, if
done thoroughly, would no doubt pre-
vent decay from any deposits of food
which would occur. Many people who
brush their teeth regularly, and have
finely preserved sets, use nothing but
water. Home journal.

good teaspoonfuls of cream of tartar,
one good teaspoonful of soda. Having
an afternoon fire, bake very slowly for
four or five hours. This makes two
moderate-sized deep loaves. The origi.

Maternal Affection of Seals.

The effort of the United States and
England to stop the indiscriminate
slaughter of seals in Behring sea has
led to some interesting discoveries
relative to the habits of the valuable
animal. 1t was shown in tho course of
the investigation that the breeding
places selected by the seals are often
fifty miles from their feeding grounds.
This fact led Mr. Blaine TO infer that
many young seals must perish as con-
sequence of the mothers being killed
while in quest Of their daily food. But
Sir Charles Upper seemed, to excel the
distinguished secretary in the domains
Of natural history, for he insisted
that the mothers never for an instant
leave their little ones, during the suck
