iestation OF the interior. That mani
festation, as every one knows, may be
made in a variety Of ways. Word OF

the eyes speak quite as eloqusntly as

1t is a we'll known fact that habits OF
any kind, whether good or evil, make a
certain impress upon the countenance
and indeed upon the whole bearing OF a
man. Many Of these manifestations We
term indications of character, but what
after all is character II not the condition
OF the inner man, and what ie an indica-
ton OF the inner man but a confession,
pure and simple, generally very
thorough, and plain even to the un-
tutored. The obvious conclusion is,
that every man and every woman on
earth, confesses in one way or other.
that they are doing 1t continually, and
that they do 1t necessarily. Confession
consequently, is not only natural, but 1t
is an indispensable adjunct to human
existence. In itself, the manifestation q

those whose interior is thus disclosed.
How wonderful a proof, then, ol
Christ's love and wisdom to take that
which il necessary and therefore un-

termed a Sacrament, to transform it into
means Of ridding the soul of sin
strengthening it in virtue and thereby
bringing it into closer union with Him.

New YORK, March 1.-THE stock
raisers of New York state are aroused
on the su Dject OF the existence OF tuber-
culosis among cattle, and have proposed
to call upon the bureau OF animal in
dustry at Washington to closely quaran-
tine all New York state cattle, pending
a thorough examination. Cattle raisers
are now making every effort to dispose
of their cattle outside the state of New
York, thus avoiding quarantine by the
state board of health. 1t is alleged
that such action is spreading the dis

A thorough knowledge of the structure

an intelligence can be built capable of

that Drs. France & Ottman, in the begin

building such a foundation, explains the
possibility of the magnificent super
structure it sustains. One enabling them
to read the subtle language of disease

testimony to this fact more eloquently
than words. The doctors rooms are

Earthuuakes.

There has been much dispute as to the
causes of earthquakes. They are often
associated with volcanic phenomena.
When the lava of a volcano contains
much water, the latter is converted into
steam and produces explosions which jar
the ground for miles. The explosion of
the great mine at He'll Gate, in New
York, occasioned tremblings of the earth
which were observed 175 miles away.

PENCIL POINTERS.

The Pollard -Breckinridge case is end
ed and the newspaper reading public is
to be congratulated that no longer will
its unsavory details be daily thrust upon
them. In a general way the daily papers
have handled the stuff pretty decently
publishing only expurgated accounts OF
the testimony at the trial, but even then
there was much that had better not been
published and spread broadcast. Had
the parties been of less prominence it is
not improbable that the case might have
been thrown ont of court because of its
character. Miss Pollard is awarded dam
ages in the sum of $4,000, but the
amount is immaterial since the verdict
is in her favor. According to the find
ing of the jury Breckenridge did prom
Use to marry the plaintiff. The jury
seems to have preferred to believe her
story of her wrongs rather than the de-
fense, which, while it denied the promise
of marriage, did not deny the relations
of the defendant with the plaintiff. There
seems to be no question that the defend
ant is composite of moral filth and
brazen in his impudence in reciting on
the witness stand all the details of his
debauched life. Twelve men have de-
clared Miss Pollard sadly wronged

culpate her, the sentiment of the whole
country is aroused in condemnation
