The HISTORIAN HERESY.
1t Has Been Ia Existence for Nearly fff
teen Hundred Years

1t Has Been Ia Existence for Nearly f'h-
teen Hundred Years
The HISTORIANS, small community
of Christians established in Asia Minor,
in the environs of Mossul. have agreed,
saws the Levant Herald, to embrace
Catholicism and join the Chaldeans-
The HISTORIANS and Chaldeans belong
TO the same race. The patriarch Mar
Shimoun is the head of the HISTORIAN
church His grace Mgr Ella Is the
spiritual chief of the Catholic Chal-
deans. who speak the same language
as the HISTORIANS. For a long time
past an active correspondence had been
going on between the two patriarchs,
Mar Shimoun, residing at Djoulamerg,
and Mgr. Ella at MossuL The question
was fully discussed in these letters of
the union of the two communities,
which have almost the same religious
rites and, as said before, are of the same
race and speak the same language. The
result of this exchange of opinions has
been To establish a basis of understand
ing for the union, which is TO be effect
ed under the following conditions: Mar
Shimoun, the HISTORIAN patriarch, and
his flock embrace Catholicism; the
prelate will continue for the remainder
of his life to exercise his spiritual
authority over the HISTORIANS, under
the jurisdiction of Mgr. Ella Upon
his death no other HISTORIAN patri-
arch will be nominated, the re-
ligious affairs of the community
being administered by n vicar appointed
by Mgr Ella or his successors. The
vicar will be helped in his task by
council composed of notabilities of the
HISTORIAN community and ne will be
directly responsible To Mgr. Ella and
his successors This agreement has
been accepted by the two patriarchs
and the respective communities. The
two prelates were to have an interview
on the 27th ult- at Bessika, a village
situated between Mossul and Djoula-
merg, in order to fix upon the final con-
ditions of the reunion.
The HISTORIAN heresy dates from the
fifth century, says St James Gazette
(Londonl. Its author, chief sup
porter. Nestorius, was bishop of Con-
stantinople from 42s to 431. The
heresy, which Is based upon the dis
tinction between the divine and the
human nature of Christ, consists in
denying that the Virgin Mary was the
mother of God. This doctrine was con
demned by the third general council,
held at Ephesus in 43I, and Nestorius
was deposed from his bishopric and
subsequently banished. Applications
for help and instruction We're made by
the HISTORIANS To the late Archbishop
TAFT, and the present archbishop of
Canterbury sent mission in 1856 To ex-
pound the doctrines and ritual of the
established church 1t would seem,
however, that they prefer those of

A Fight with q WaIrus.

A few weeks ago the crew of the seal
ing schooner Oscar had a lively expert
ence off Clayoquot, a little place on
Vancouver island. One seal had been
caught early in the morning, and at
about ten o'clock the hunter in one of
the boats noticed two heads some TWEEN
ty yards in front of hfm. The fog partly
obscured objects at any distance, and
the hunter thought the heads were those
of seal. He shot, and the discharge of
his gun was followed 10y shrek of ag-
ony from one of the animals, which at
once made for the boat The men then
became aware that large female wal
rus, wounded and infuriated, was after
them. She rose up out of the water,
and grasping the side of the boat with
her powerful tusks tried to overturn II.
There was a fight of several minutes,
the men endeavoring to beat the wal
rus off with oar blades and paddles
Finally a shot through the head killed
her, and she was towed back to the
schooner as the great prize of the sea

Tse INDISPENSABLE NAPKIN.

IT Was FIRST Used Only by Children and
scorncd by EIuers.
Curiously enough that article now
considered almost Indispensable, the
table napkin. was first used only by
children. saws the Youths Companion,
and was only adopted by elder members
of the family about the middle of tine
fifteenth century. In etiquette books
of an earlier date than this. among
other sage pieces of advice for children,
are instructions about wiping their
fingers and lips with thcir napkins.
Ii seems that the tablecloth was long
enough to reach the floor and served the
grown people in place of napkins When
they did begin To use napkins they placed
them first on the shoulder. then on the
left arm. and finally tied them about the
neck y French writer, who evidently
was conservative and did not welcome
the napkin kindly, records, with scorn:
The napkin is placed under the chin
and fastened in the back, as if one We're
going to be shaved. \ person told me
that he wore his that way that he
might not soil his beautiful frills."
1t was difficult matter u tie the
two corners in the back, and it is said
that thence originated our expression
for straitcned circumstances: Hard
To make both ends meet" This custom
led TO the habit of the table walters of
carrying napkin on the left arm.
Napkins became popular in France
sooner than in England At one time
it was customary at great French din
ners to change the napkins at every
course, To perfume them with rose
water and to have them folded a differ
ent way for each guest.
About 1890 Pierre David published
the ''MaiStre d'Hostcl.' which
teaches how To wait ON a table proper
Iy aud how To fold all kinds of table
napkins in all kinds of shapes.
The shapes were: square twisted,
folded in bands and in the forms of a
double and twisted shell, single shell.

The Best Scason sf the Year to Trea,

 Notwithstanding that great num- Der of people have been GU red of chronic catarrh by taking Pe-ru-na during the past cold seasons, yet it can not be de nied that the cold, wet, stormy winter has retarded many cures, in some cases actually prevents a cure. But. after ul,- usual delay, spring time has come at last. and now is the the time for catarrh sui ferers to begin systematic course of treatment for this disease. The great diff ficulty in the way of treating chronic catarrh is that the patient is so liable tn catch cold during the treatment, and thus delay cure. This liability at this sea son of the year is. in a great measure. removed, and no one should neglect the opportunity to begin treatment. Send foI free catarrh book

Died.


 Mrs. Sarah Clayton was born in St.. Francis county, Ark. Nov. 2s, 1863. and was married to Mir. ?. C. Clayton Nov. l4, 1876. She lived happily with him until called away to 2 higher life, April 20, 1893. by her Heavenly Father. The irrepsrsble loss caused by her death is mourned by her husband, a sister and four children.
 Mrs. Clayton was good woman, a kind and obliging neighb0r, faithful, loving wife and mother, but, above all, she was q true and earnest christian. She became religious at tue tender age of thirteen, and united with the Cumberland Presbyterian church, in which she lived true to her faith the rest of her life. 1 never knew a more devoted christian than sho, and while we cannot say that she was perfect, yet. we cannot remember of ever hearing of any imperfections in her life. She was es- teeined by all who knew her as q good pure, christian woman. When she came to die, she was ready. If her life was grand and beautiful. her death was more beautiful, and infinitely grander, for as she stood in the twilight Of two worlds, just beside the chilly stream, Jordan, she said: Il do not dread to die, 1 leave it all to God. What He does is for the best. To His will l am resigned" She lived wisely, died well, and left us the assurance that she rests in heaven. May we meet her there aud be blessed. J. A. MASON.
