The New Pharmacy.

Modern progress of science has been
fertile in many additions to the re-
sources of civilization, both in the pre-
vention and the cure of disease, espec-
tally, perhaps, in the former. The nau-
seous compounds and drastic remedies
which were the terror of childhood, and
among the penances of later life, are
slowly but surely giving way to means
not less potent, but far more agreeable.
The introduction of natural aperient
waters has been a great step in ad-
vance of d-fashioned pills and po-
tions, and they are achieving every
year an increasing popularity, both
with the profession and the public.
One disadvantage under which many
of them have laboured, and which has
interfered with their efficacious useful
and absence of standard uniformity of
composition. This is now completely
removed by the introduction by the
Apollinaris company of a new Hunga-
rian mineral water known as "Apen-
ia" OF this the Lancet says that "its
composition is constant. The practi-
toner is thus enabled to prescribe def
mite quantities for definite results
The Royal Hungarian Chemical Insti-
tute ministry of Agriculture), Buda
Pest, has undertaken the absolute con-
troll of the springs, and Professor Lie
hermann, director of the Royal Insti-
tute, certified that 1--WE know of no
stronger or more favourably-const
ted natural aperient water" The
ApoIlinarfs company have added one
further valuable improvement by intro
ducing the water, in addition to the
customary forms. in a new quarter
bottle, price ten cents, which brings the
water within the reach of, and in a
convenient form for, the bachelor, the
tourist and the traveller.

Tic No license Movement.

The following card has just been is
sued by DR.. Whitney, president of the
No License League:
To the many who have sent words OF
congratulation to the No License
League:
1t would be almost impossible for US
to reply to all who have so kindly as
sured us of their support and the hearty
cooperation in the movement which
has begun to do what 1t can to rid this
city of the greatest curse to the church
and the home.
To the many who are hopeful that we
may gain the victory this year let us
say that we have not the slightest hope
of such result and even were it pos
sible there is a serious doubt in our
minds Of it's being for the best interests
of the city,
We intend to work along educationa
lines and if in five years the people
have become convinced that no license
is for the best good of the city then
and not till then, will they give the
proper support to the officials In the en-
forcement of the law.
We believe that by the judicious use
of five thousand dollars this year ano
increasing the amount few thousano
each year that In five years we WI
have a good fighting chance to do away
with the saloon that is each year the
ruination of so many dearly loved boys
and girls.
To those who are fearful that not
much money will be given let us say
that already we are assured of good
ly sum and that the securing of money
is the least of our troubles. How tc
use it to the best good of the cause is
much more serious problem. We hope
to open the campaign some Sunday at
ternoon next month with a rally at the
Grand opera house, with Father Sculiy
of Cambridge and John G. Wooley as
the speakers.

AT st. Paul's Parish House Last Evening
Daughters of tho King and Other organi-
cations.
One Of the happiest and most sociable
gatherings that have assembled in the
parlors of st, Paul's parish house this
season gathered there last evening, the
occasion being an invitation sociable
given under the auspices of the hos
pitality committee of the Daughters of
the King connected with ST. Pauls
church, and all the various societies Of
the church received invitations and re-
sponded in full force, the spacious par
lors being filled to overlooking. The
decorations for the occasion We're ar
ranged under the able supervision of
the chairman of the committee, Mrs.
Jennie l.. Patmore, and she was ably
assisted by Mrs Anthony. Festoons of
blue, the emblem of the order, were
everywhere artistically arranged, and
potted plants and flowers lent an air
of fragrance to the scene. The beau
tiful decorations We're much comment
ed upon and certainly did great credit
to Mrs. Patmore and her aids. Mrs.
Fannie Peck, who is also connected
with the Daughters of the King, was
present, and greatly aided the commit
tee in their duties of the evening This
well known lady was on the committee
of reception and the manner in which
she carried out her part of the program
told how wise q, selection the commit
tee of arrangements had made. The
society is in a fourishing condition
with sixty members and there are in
Connecticut forty-three branches of
this noble order who are doing good
work for the church, and five hundred
societies in the country. Mrs. Peck
acts as secretary for the national body
and her correspondence extends to all
quarters of the globe. She is an indie
fatigable worker for the cause and be-
loved by all the members, who
we'll know her worth. The re-
ception lasted from 8 till 10 O'Clock
and was one long to be remembered by
all present. The newly elected officers
of the society are as follows: Presi-
dent. Mrs. e. J. Whaples; first vice
president, Mrs. Fannie A. Peck; second
vice president, Mrs. HUT; treasurer.
Mrs. e. Clements; secretary, Miss Rose
Button.

NAV4L MILITIA.

Their Annual Field Day Yesterday.
The annual field day of the First divi-
sion, Naval militia, was held yesterday.
The division marched to the state range
in the morning, where themembers of the
sections practiced target shooting and
held an extended order drill. Guard
duty also formed a part of the day s
exercises. Shortly before 10 o'clock the
divisions formed and marched to their
monitor, Wyandotte, which is located
at Long wharf. When they arrived at
the ship they sat down to mess, which
was prepared for the occasion.
In the afternoon the boys made pre-
parations for drills aboard their cut
tiers. The division was divided into
sections and each given a separate boat.
With a fairly good breeze from off the
sound the men were able to accomplish
several manoeuvres aboard ship. The
weather was extremely pleasant, and
the exercises proved interesting as well
as instructive.

Dangerous USE OF
Strong PURGANVES.

Pills and purgatives which act
quickly upon the bowels, irritate
and destroy the mucous Innings
of the stomach and bowels. A
continued use of such remedies
inflamcs the stomach and bowels.
The use of the genuine imported
Carlsbad Sprudel Salt is highly
recommended because it's action
is due solely to its solvent and
stimulating properties, without
irritating the stomach. Best re-
suits are obtained when outdoor
exercise canb had. Obtain the
genuine imported article only.

cataleptic at Beth-Israel hospital has
awakened at last from his long Sleep
The spell was broken yesterday after
noon at o'clock, after the sleeper had

He tried to speak, but his voice failed
him. 1t is expected that he will get up
and walk in a few days.
Fronts case aroused good deal of
interest among the doctors in the hos
pltal. His record of sleep has seldom
been equalled. He fell into state of
coma on April 2. At first his jaws were
locked; now they move easily. Front
dozed off into a natural sleep at s
O'Clock last night, after having been
awake fully three hours.
Dr. Nelson said that the sleep was
not cataleptic, but restful one. 1t
lasted but two hours. He was watched
intently during the night and has been
awake ever since 10 o'clock. Food is
still administered to him by injections.
The same diet that has nourished him
ever since he first fell into comatose
state is still adhered to. 1t consists of
milk, eggs and peptones, and the nine
teen-year-old boy has partaken of it
each day from six to eight times.
Though he is somewhat emaciated,
the patients bodily conditions are nor
