 Bishop Williams li,jated at St Peters church on Saturday at 3 p. n. There was 8 special service. The bishop never having been here since the church was remodolcd inside, he read the conseca- tion service, after which he addressed the very large congregation. After con- graduating the parishioners on the beau tiful appearance of the church, he based his remarks principally on ''What do we go to church for?" we would say "to worship God, but many go to hear the sermon, and then he explained the ser vice. As usual he was listened to with breathless attention. Many people from the surrounding towns were present. After the sermon seven were confirmed, mostly young people.

low the little sickness to grow into the
big sickness. They allow constipation to
grow into indigestion, heartburn, dizzi,
ness, headache, insomnia, and . hundred
other distressing conditions. They do
this frequently because they do not know
the cause of their trouble. 1t is pretty
safe rule to look for the source OF 9-Ioths
of human sickness in this one simple and
appallingly prevalent trouble. Another
foolish thing that smart people do is to
take some alleged remedy for constiipa-

OTTO LILIENTHAL, who for several
years has been practicing the art OF fly
ing, or soaring, with artificial wings
near Berlin, mas recently made an inn
provement in his apparatus. Instead of
aslngle large framework for the wings"
he now uses two smaller frames, one
placed above the other, and connected
by cords. This device has greatly in
creased the sailing power of his machine.
Starting from the top OF the artificial
hill, which he has thrown up in the
midst of broad plain, Lilienthal is able
not only to glide for long distances
in the air, but to sail against the wind.
Formerly he had to take preliminary
run before launching himself from the
bill, but now, with a moderately brisk
wind, he can start without running, and
if the breeze is strong enough it lifts him
from the hilltop and sets him moving
against its own direction without effort
on his part, except to balance himself
properly. He has even occasionally
risen above the point from which he
started Lilienthal has had one or two
serious falls, but is confident that he can
accomplish much more than he has yet
done in the realm of the birds.

BRAZIL does not want to arbitrate the
dispute about Trinidad. There ia moth
ing in this to be wondered at. When a
citizen is held up by a footpad he would
resent proposition to arbitrate. To
make arbitration successful there must
be at least the shadow of justice on each
side of the question.
