QUESTION.
Honest Dollar.

This is the title of a pamphlet
containing 63 pages, illustrated to
suit the text, by Edward A. Ross,
published by Charles III. Kerr &
Co., Sc Fifth ave. Chicago, and
sold at the low price of cents.
Honest Dollar is most valuable
addition to the literature on the
money question, which is now up
for discussion by the American
people, and it will not down till
thoroughly discussed and settled,
and when settled it will he per-
manently settled. This little book
contains information more valuable
to any one who desires true and
honest information on the financial
question than hundred times its
cost. Honest Dollar is a clear
expose of the dishonest dollar and
the ap-trap which the banker and
usury class are attempting to dupe
the people with, imposing upon the
lack of public information on the
question of money. "Honest
Dollar" may be ordered direct from
the publishers or through the MID
LAND JOURNAL Office. A club OF
10 or more might be raised at any
or all of the club meetings and sent
in one order. No better and
cheaper method for disseminating
information on the money question
than by placing this little pamphlet
in the hands of those seeking
knowledge on this all absorbing
subject.

1t is surprising to many that foot ball
players and other athletes regard sprain
or bruise of so little consequence. One
reason of this is, they know how to treat
such injuries so as to recover from them
in few days, while others would be laid
up for two or three weeks, if not longer.
Writing from Central State Normal
School, Lock Haven, Pa, Mr.. w. H.
Losch, captain of the base ball club and
gymnasium says: 81 take pleasure in stat
ing that members of our base ball club
and myself have used Chamberlain S
Pain Balm with most excellent results.
unhesitatingly recommend it as the best
remedy for sprains, swellings, cuts and
bruises, of any that l know" For sale

CLEVELAND DEFENDED
The Rev. Mr.. Halleron Critieises
the Rev. B. Fay Mills

d~eavorers.

President Cleveland was highly COM

In a prelude to his sermon on Chris in
Two Contradictory Aspects The sub
ject Of the prelude was THE Late Chris
tan Endeavor Society, and President
Cleveland Rev. Mr.. Halleron, In his
opening remarks, said that the subject Of
this prelude was no of recent mention,
for 1t occurred nj the summer when he was
on his vacation, hence his delay in con-
sfdering 1t. He said:
At the national convention Of the
Washington this summer, a great many
questions of vital religious interest were
discussed, but tcwards the close, Presi-
for not sending our ships of war to the

that the convention went out of its way
in thus assailing our President. He could
not intervene in the Government of Eu-
rope, or their dependencies, and violating
the traditions of the American nation
which always held that non-intervention
is our duty, which cannot be ~abrogated.
Mr.. Cleveland has, in our Judgment.

mand that the persons and properties

not tolerate any such interference. Even
England, In her sublime power, and being
a party to the Berlin treaty, found that

Armenians she would Immediately have

powers.
How much less could we interfere,
whose policy has ever been, as already
stated, complete non-intervention in Eu-
ropean troubles. We are no apologists
for Mr.. Cleveland, but he deserves the
highest credit for preserving our nation
from being embroiled. even though every
humane instinct might have called for a
material expression of our Indignation at
such atrocities. Mr.. Cleveland has,
through our minister at C-onstantinople,
brought every moral influence to bear up
on the Sublime Porte for the cessation
of these massacres.
There he stopped, and we believe there
he ought to stop. When ministers of the
gospel handle questions of State in the
pulpit or upon the platform, they ought
to study well the questions they discuss.

else they may become a laughing stock
of those better informed. Much as we
admire, and we do, the magnificent labor
of the Christian Endeavor Society, in this
instance we think 1t lost its head. And
this we say with great sorrow"

TOO MUCH ADOPTED FATHER.
Or. White, of Rutherford. sues for
Divorce from His wife

DIR. Henry D. White of Rutherford told
Vice Chancellor Pitney In Chancery
Chambers this morning a queer tale of
matrimonial infelicity. He married his
present wife. Marguerite. in the fashion,
able apartment house known as the AL
hambra on Nostrand avenue, Brooklyn.
The newly married pair lived there some
time, but when the doctor perceived that
MS Wife was becoming decidedly too
friendly with one George W. Lockwood
he kicked and threatened to leave.
Mrs. White had represented TO her
husband that she was the adopted
daughter of Lockwood, who was a widow
er with several daughters almost of the
age Of Mrs. White. who owned up to
twenty-seven years of age.
A few mouths after the wedding, the
doctor would come home and find his
wife sitting on her adopted fathers knee,
while that individual was kissing his
adopted daughter with more affection
than his own daughters. Here was
another source for trouble. Then DIR.
White discovered that his wife and her
adopted father. Lockwood. would be gone
for days and he. the husband, knew moth
ing of their whereabouts or their inten-
ton to go away.
and came first to Nufley, N. j., and then
to Rutherford. His wife came to him
and begged forgiveness. She said she
would not show as much love for her
band. IT Is to be regretted that the lady
didn't keep her word. In a few months
after the recommendations the adopted
