A chain of compressed cakes of gum
| cotton tied around the trunk of the largest
sized trees and exploded will, by the action
of their violence, cut the tree down In.
stantly and as smoothly as though done by
an AZ in the hands of an experienced
woodman. Timber cutters working among
the forest giants of Montana, Idaho and
Warrington declare it to be the cheapest
and most economical mode of Telling trees
that has yet been devised.
Mr.. Imre Kiralfy, who is In Paris, has
just been interviewed by Fnench jour-
ing women for the chorus by examination
of the hand and wrist. He declares that

knee, and the last joint the size of the in

DIR. Mcconnell, the we'll known Epis-
copalisn clergyman of Philadelphia, in a
recent sermon said: have been instructed
by my ecclesiastical superior to use a
prayer to Almighty God to avert the ehole-
IA. But cholera Is dirt disease. It is
therefore, preventable disease. To pre-
vent the cholera you have only to remove
the dirt If you leave the dirt you invite
the cholera This city of Philadelphia is
full of filth which nobody is trying to re-
move To let that fifth remain and pray
to God to keep away the cholera is to trifle
both with the cholera and with Almighty
God. While that filth is allowed to remain
refuse to offer such prayers.
The new bill providing for freedom of
public worehip which has just been intro
duced into the Hungarian parliament does
not apply either to the jewish faith or to
the other religions already recognized 1t
stipulates that all persons shall be at lib
erty to belong to the faith or religion they
choose, and to practice the came within
the limits fixed by the law and public NOR
ality. Any confession desiring to be
legally recognized by the State must sub
NIT to the government it's statutes, setting
forth its dogmatic and moral doctrines and
discipline. Should these be contrary to
the laws of the country, or should the
school books or prayer books of the COM
munity contain anything calculated to pre-
vent its members from fulfilling their duty
towards the State. the government is EN-
powered to refuse Its recognition. The
authorities may also demand the removal
of clergyman guilty of any action preju-
dicial to the State. The position of head
or patron of q religious community must
not be held by foreigner or by foreign
authority. The exercise of political and
municipal rights is made Independent OF
religion, but it is plain that the practical
effect of such law will depend almost en-
tirely upon the spirit of its administra
ton.
