A couNrERFElrER CAUGHT.
The Police of Syracuse Make an Import

ant Capture.
On Monday the 18th, Harold Marquisoe, OF
Utica, N. Y, was arrested in Syracuse, n.
", on a warrant sworn out by the DIR.
Williams Medicine Co., charging him with
forgery. On the 18th of December Marqui-
see visited "A photo engrGvcr in Syracuse,
saying he was the representative of the DR..
Williams Medicine Co. and arranged for
the making of n full set of plates for the di-
rection sheets, tables. etc. of the famous
DIR. Williams Pink Pills for Pale People.
News Of this reached the home Office, and
no time was lost in arranging for his arrest
when he should return for the plates. He
returned on the 10Th and was accordingly
arrested and Is now in jail in Syracuse
awaiting examination.
This arrest proves to be an important one.
In addition to various plumber, such as
medical books, typewriters, rugs, etc,
found in Narquisees trunk when arrested,
the police also found counterfeit coin both
in the trunk and on his person; and in
a search of his apartments at Utica found
"a complete outfit for counterfeiting con-
sisting OF crucibles, bellows, nickel, lend,
bismuth, anthony a small blacksmith
forge, "a charcoal furnace, and several
plaster of-paris molds. The United States
marshals want him just as soon as the DR..
Williams Medicine Co. are through with
him, and. no doubt, he will be sentenced
for n long period
In selecting DR.. Williams Pink Pills for
his counterfeiting operations, he showed
his knowledge of the proprietary medical
business for these pills are in such great
demand that they are easily sold at any
drug store in the United States. His scheme
was to work the country druggists and sell
his limitations at n discount of from per
cent to per cent. explaining the reduced
price by the fact that he had picked them
up in small lots and Mt a discount from
dealers who were over-stocked. By work.
ing fast and making long jumps, he would
have secured many hundreds Of dollars in
a short time. The proprietors of DR.. Will
liams' Pink Pills are most fortunate to
have caught the rogue, before he had fair
ly started, and to have thus kept these
spurious goods out of the market.

but divins mystery, which primarily
can only be dissolved by the death OF
one of the parties. The distinction be-
tween q separation and the divorce
from "the bond of marriage, which is
a principle of common law, must be
recognized and insisted on. And the
only possible permission which can be
extorted out of the Christian Scriptures
should be emphasized-viz. the putting
away of wife for unfaithfuness.
The laws of the state of New York,
which are far better than they are in
many states, unfortunately allow to a
court Of competent jurisdiction the
right to dissolve the marriage bonds
for two other causes, and, still more
unfortunately, allow the court which
pronounces the divorce discretion to
permit the remarriage of even the gull
ty person. 1t is dangerous work, tam
pering with the divine projections and
prohibitions of divine institution, by
attempting to make that legal which
God forbids. Mans laws cannot alter
Gods will Human legislation cannot
change divine revelation. The drift of
modern feeling and opinion on this
subject is fraught with mischief and
misery.
l am very much struck With recent
argument in favor of the theory that
unhappy marriages shoJi!e be easily
dissolved and remarriage1 made easy
and possible" Based as it is upon the
theory that "the institution of mar
rage was not established by Jehova.
nor by Christ, nor by the apostles"
it is a perfectly logical and consistent
conclusion. But to those who start,
as Christian people certainly do start,
from perfectly different premises. the
other conclusion is equally logical and
inevitable. If marriage is not only a
civil contract or personal agree
ment, but is an institution of God. un-
der the law of the state, blessed by
the Church and in the interest not
only of individuals but of society, it
must follow that separation cannot be
secured by men and women at their
will, nor their mistakes corrected in
this way.
Perhaps these mistakes would be
often more avoided If the indissoluble
character of marriage from the Scrip
tural and ecclesiastical point of view
were more thoroughly recognized than
it is now And, at any rate, 1t is a
standing and a startling fact that in
this and in many other instances we
are obliged TO bear the consequences

Mendelssobn, and ,Liszt.

A good story OF Mendelssohn is re-
corded by Professor Max Muller in a
recent number of Cosmopolitan. De-
scribing a meeting Of musicians, he
says:
List appeared in his Hungarian cos
tune, wild and magnificent. He told
Mendelssohn that he had written some
thing special for him. He sat down
and, swaying right and left on his
music-stool, played first a Hungarian
melody, and then three or four varia-
tons, one more incredible than the
other. We stood amazed, and after
everybody had paid his compliments
to the hero Of the day, some of Men
delssohn's friends gathered round him.
and said, "Ah, Felix, now we can pack

US Mendelssohn smiled, and when
List came up 10 HIM, asking him to
play something, he laughed, and said
he never played now; and this, TO a
certain extent was true. He did not
give much time to practicing then, but
worked chiefly at composing and d.
recting his concerts. However, List
would take no refusal, and so at last
little Mendelssohn, with his own
charming playfulness said, well, III

smoking Meat without Fire.

1t may sound absurd to make a state
ment about smoking meat without fire, !"
for it is well known saying that where
there is smoke there must be fire." The
advance of science, however, has made
this idea obsolete, and today with the use
of Krausers' Liquid Extract of Smoke it is
possible to quickly, economically and sue
cessfully smoke meat without a fire. This
liquid extract is made by distilling the
smoke from hickory wood and is absolute
~ harmless. In fact, meat smoked by this
method has a genuine smoke flavor, re-
mains moist and soft, and is not infested
with insects. Every objection Of the old
method is overcome, every trouble ended
and the unsightly and dangerous smoke
house is a thing of the past. Krausers'
Liquid Extract of Smoke long ago passed
the age of experiment, and thousands are
using il today with profit and satisfaction.

From The Capital 81. John, Kansas
Every citizen of St. John, Kansas, is &C.
quainted with Abasha Risk. one OF the "Old
Veterans" of the late war and resident OF
this city. A few months ago he was n com.
plete physical wreck, from kidney trouble
and diarrhma. almost unable TO ret around
atall. Your correspondept. who had learned
he had found relief meeting him on the
street recently, asked If he wouldn't give
him all the facts, as he WAS Interested, as
were also all his friends. Mr.. Risk said he
was only too glad to let the pcoplc in gen
cral and his old comrades in pnrticular (who
he knew were suffering from complaints
similar to his)k know what had benefited him.
He then made the following statement:
al had been suffering for years from n

upon the matter of divorce. The article
of the bishop is as follows:
There Is no more burning question
in the world of morals and manners
to-day, in the ethics of society, than
the question of the frequency and ia
cility of divorce. And this because
1t touches foundations, purity, mar
riage, family life and the primeval in
stitution of God. The difficulties that
beset any settlement of the question
are the variety of civil enactments and
the low tone of what is called society
on the subject The first difficulty is
hard to cure. Any attempt to secure
uniformity through the country in re-
gard to divorce laws Is of doubtful pos
sibility as well as Of doubtful benefit.
1t cannot be done without an amend
ment of the constitution, and If It were
done it would require lowering of the
tone in States which now maintain
a somewhat respectable standard in or
der to lift the lower and looser laws OF
other States to the plane of q com
promise.
The other difficulty can only be met
by the manufacture and maintenance
of sound public opinion and feeling.

actual position, as not civil contract,
