AS HOO o'clock, Elder L. w. Warren
spoke upon the subject OF healthful liv-
ing. He maintained that God made
man perfect, in body as we'll as in mind;
end n chief duty Of man is to glorify
God in our bodies as well as with our
minds. God knew how to make man,
and the Flathead Indians in binding a
board on the heads Of their children, and
the Chinese in deforming the feet of
their women, are no improving upon
the plan Of the Creator. No more are
those, who in this country are combining
the waist with tight clothing.
The speaker advocated fresh air and
plenty Of room in sleeping apartments,
entire abstinence from tobacco, tea, and
coffee, as well rs from all other narcotics
and stimulants.
The meetings will continue till
Wednesday OF next week, and there will
be, besides other meetings, three SER
mons each day, at 11:0O,> $50, and 7:45,

says the Lewiston Journal, In
thought transference, or something
Of the kind. he had been visiting .
patient in Piscataquis county and
was returning in darkness SO
thick il might almost have been
felt, when his horse stumbled and
fell. Fortunately the doctor was
not thrown out and the only thing
broken was one thill. This he was
able to mend so as to continue his
journey.
AS he drove up to his door he was
surprised to see his wife, who met
him with the question: "You did
meet with an accident. didn't your"
The doctor looked at his wife in as
constituent, which was not wholly
dispelled as she explained that she
had gone to bed aud to sleep, but
had suddenly found herself in sit
ting posture with a nameless dread
that something dreadful had hap.
pened to her husband. Being UNI
able to shake it off she had arisen
and waited for his return. On COM
parison it was found that the time
OF the accident and that OF her
strange awakening were identical.
