John l.. stoddard Speaks on Paris" Be-
 fore Large Audience-Some Fine Views
 of the Great City.
 John l.. Stoddard, the lecturer, was despite the indictment weather, greeted with very large audience at the lily perion last evening in his lecture on Paris" When he appeared before the audience he was welcomed with a big ovation of applause. He responded with few appropriate remarks, saying that it was always a great pleasure to him to lecture before New Haven audience and alluded to the fact that this is his fifteenth season, and that he had lec- tured 100 times in this city.
 Enough can hardly be said of the pie lures. They are simply superb. All the principal objects of striking inter- est in the great city were shown with such distinctness that one almost felt as though he had visited the city. The interest in the lecture seemed to me un- bounded, notwithstanding the fact that 1t has been given here in this city be- fore. The Church of the Madeleine, the garden of the Tulleries, with several views of the ruined palace of the Bour- bons were among the views. The gall lery of Diana, the Louvre, the Venus de Milo, the Theater Francais, the Ven dome column, the Boulevards, the Place de IOpera, the Champs Elysees, an un- rivalled promenade, the Arc de Tri- umphe, Notre Dame cathedral the Eiffel Tower were other pictures that were much enjoyed by the audience The lecture closed with a series of pie lures Illustrating historic scenes of the French revolution. Among the scenes were Versailles, Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette at Trianon, the Advent of the Mob, the Conciergerle, Going to Execution, the Reign of Terror and It's Suppressor, the Dome of the Invalides, the Burial Place Of the First Napoleon. Mir. Stoddard seemed in his happlest vein, and time and again his remarks and humorous hits were warmly greet ed with applause.
 The next lecture will be delivered on Tuesday, January 15, Switzerland" be- ing the subject.

A GREAT AGREEMENT.
25,OOO Physicians of One Mind.

Food for Strength First. - Medicine for
 Cure Second. The Least Food that
 will give Most Nourishment, the Kind.
 In this enlightened age, the old theory held by physicians - to get as much medi- cine in the least possible time into the system of patient, even at the expense of stomach, blood, brains, nerves, and often, in the end, life itself - has been abandoned.
 The old way was to "dose." If the patient had tremendous constitution, he sometimes "pulled through" if not, which was more often the case, that spe- cial disease was considered more danger ous, as it had claimed another for It's own.
 But this is all changed now. All promi- nent physicians agree on one subject, any way. It is this = build the patient up first, give him new blood and strength, add flesh to his bones. He's then ready to receive the benefit of proper medical treatment
 To do this effectually, that must be given which will, in the least quantity, produce the greatest amount of vitality, - not stimulant which quickly reacts disastrous ly, but genuine food, a muscle, bone,
  sought for, and at last discovered in that original and only raw food extract- Bovinne.
 By the use of this wonderful life-gene- rating preparation, every organ of the body becoming strengthened by nourish- ment, naturally begins to perform its ordi- nary functions, and at once the patient is on the road to recovery.
 It is this result, obtained in hundreds of cases where Bovinine has been used, that has caused it's indorsement by 25,o00 prominent physicians in America.
 In addition, thousands who have been benefited can vouch for the wonderful re- suits obtained by the use of Bovinine, for invalids, the old, convalescents, the over-worked, or, in fact, all who have found it necessary to maintain strength, flesh, and vigor.

anything is known respecting the diff

The Waldensian church belongs to

elders who, together with the pastor,

tory. The Sabbath worship consists OF

stress upon the children's birthright
privilege and are rigid in the observ
ance of family worship. From the
earliest time the study of the Bible
among the Waidenses has not been con-
fined to their schools and pastors, but
the layman. the laborer, the artisan,
the cowherd, the mother of family,
even the young girl while watching the
cattle and employing her hands at the
same time in spinning, studied the
Bible attentively. This same reverence
for the Word of God is shown by the
members of the colony 1 have been de-
scribing. and even the little children, as
soon as they have learned to read, are
taught to study their Testaments daily
and carry them with them to their
work in shop or field. In the days Of
their prosecutions. it is said that every
child among the Waldenses was taught
to commit to memory some portion of
the Scriptures, SO that if the sacred
texts were entirely destroyed they
might be reproduced with accuracy and
without delay, and this devout practice
is still observed in spirit If not in form.
DAs might be expected, the first days
of the colony have not been without
clouds and troubles. Their crops last
year were a partial failure, due to a
late frost, long drought in the carly
summer, and the colonists' ignorance Of
the methods of successful farming in
this country. Their implements are
primitive and clumsy, and while they
were familiar with the hoe and spade,
they knew nothing of the Yankee
pillow and reaper. But these are OBJ
stacles for which time and experience
are sure to find an effective remedy.
In the meantime they have shown
themselves an upright, peace-loving
people, who are governed by fine
sense Of honor and expect those with
whom they have any dealings to be
equally honorable. Their claim to the
sympathy and aid of those with whom
they have cast their lot has already
received cheerful recognition. As a re-
suit, they seem contented and happy in
their new home. The charming noun
tain scenery of western North Carolina
seems to satisfy their inherited love fer
