divine who 90 long has ministered to them
spiritually as pastor of the Church.
DIR. Calthrop was born in England and
Eeceived his preparatory scholastic training
&t g. PAul's School, London. Entering
Trinity College, Cambridge, he soon became
{ bright figure in that brilliant coterie of
scholars, literary men and wits that followed
in the traditions of Macaulay and his assOci-
ateS a& the university. In the middle of the
century he visited Syracuse and received
his 6rsk impressions of the young city that

been 90 long and effective. The mastery

research. His people have been instructed
BY him. not. only in things spiritual, but in
the elements Of the brbadest culture in lit
erature. in art and in science. His young.
men have been taught muscular system Of
morality. In these and in many other ways

To the eve he is most picturesque figure.
His head and face, framed in luxuriant mas

to inquire about his health. for, though
manfully repressing all possible evidences
Of his suffering, DR.. Cal;hrop for many
years has been the victim of distreSsinF
aNaiction, until by fortunate chance he was
led to take the remedy which has effectually

During more than half of his pastOrate in
Syracuse, DR.. Calthr,p has been troubled

excrOciating agony from it. At times the
pain was 81 great rs to prevent him from

up hope of a permanent cure or of more
than temporary relief when he took the
preparation that drove fhe disease completely
from his system. Ae
