English at Heart.

We do not know whether Bishop w. 0. Doane of Albany is an American .cit- izon or not We judge he is not by. the following extract from his annual ad- dress to the clergy of his diocese. It sounds like tho utterance of ono who is an alien and an Englishman at heart:
 IL Is unfortunate with us that our public men arc by force of our constant political changes nntrained either in the arts or in the language of diplomacy.
 The more mindful mon in England look with amazement and astonishment on what some. times seems to them tho unbrid1od violence of our partisan newspapers, the feeling of hatred and dislike of England in America. With these extreme expressions of violence the English government, the English people and the Eng fish press have heen most patient, but unless WIG como to recognize more than we do the reelxlessnoss of speech, the facility of rousing prejuaiees and the danger of provoking even the most patient strength we may bring about state of things infinitely disgraeeful and inf nitely dangerous to our Christianity and our civilization.
 Would Bishop Doane prefer a mon archy in this country, where there would not bo the constant political changes that grieve him so? But who hates England in this country? When, how and whore arc given to the winds thoso sentiments of dislike to England that tho bishop sees through his blue glasses? Where arc tho violent expres- sions of aversion that he speaks of among the American people2 He talks like one of those rabid London news- papers whose stock in trade it is to spread among British tradesmen dislike of the United Stntes Wo in the United States are too busy minding our own affairs and accommodating for ourselves and our children tho belongings of re- fined civilized life to pay attention to England one way or the other.

BABYs SMOOTH, FAIR SKIN

A Grateful Mother Writes this Letter
 Tells all about Her Troubles when
 Baby Broke out with SorofuIa Sores.
 At the ago Of two months, my baby began to have sores break out on hisright check. We used all the external ap- plications that we could think or hear of, to no avail. The sores spread all over one side of his face. .yye consulted q physi- elan and tried his medicine, and in q week the sore was gone. But to my surprise in two weeks more another acrofu1ous look ing sore appeared on baby's arm. 1t grew worse and worse, and when he was three months old, l began giving him Hoods Sarsaparilla. l also took Hoods Sarsaparilla, and before the first bottle was finished, the sores were well and have never returned. He is now four years old, but he has never had any sign of those serofulous sores since he was cured by Hoods Sarsaparilla, for which feel very grateful. My boy owes his good health and smooth, fair akin to this great med- icine.e MRS. S. 5. WRoTEN, Farming ton, Delaware. Get only Hoods.

Dogs are well enough in their place. They are admirable and even beautiful sometimes in their place again. But that is not among human beings i'll din. ing rooms, bedrooms and living rooms, where they taint with their mioroby breath the blood of their owners and gc mad from the unnatural confinement, In the wild state Q dog is an animal that delights to feed on carrion. It noy. CT loses this desire and habit entirely il the domestieated state. Such a creature cooped up in close quarters with human beings, casts out from its breath ant body in short time ef1iuyia enough t kill whole family. It is with gooc reason, therefore, that the people of Par Is are awakening to the danger that turks in the eontining of pet dogs in theil homes.

YAwN Al Q LAUGH OFTEN
Scientists De5z4re That Both Are High4
 Beneficial.

It is not SC very long ago since q fox. eign scientist discoursed on tho benofita of yawning. This act which is gener- ally regarded as partaking of the naturs of Q tired condition. or symptom of such condition, of the respiration and of the need for fresh air, is said to be of great service in clearing the eusta- chian tubes of the ears. These tubes lead from the back of the mouth to the inner side of the ear drum, and yawn- ing is looked upon in this light as a hygienic exercise which benefits the structures in question.
 Another scientist has no difficulty in showing that when VIC laugh we in. crease the play of tension in our lungs One result of this increased tension is to arrest the blood flow in the lungs and to induce the taking of deep in- spirations These latter arc healthful things, for many parts of our lungs are not called into active use in ordinary breathing. The apex, or top of the lung, is notably part which does not active ly participate in the movements of breathing, and as this is the special
 
 seat of consumption attack we may reasonably hold that the law of disuse explains the greater liability of this portion of the organ to the onset of dis ease. The free and active use of q part, strengthening and toning it, as it were, Is an essential condition for health; !; hence laughter, by bringing into play the whole of the lungs, or Ut least by favoring an increase of lung work, is to be reckoned an admirable exercise. Besides this physical effect of laugh ter we have also to take into account it's mental side. There is certain brain stimulus to be noted, psychic result, in addition to tho physical effect and it is pretty certain the mental phase of 6 good, hearty laugh is, ir it's way, as healthful as ia its physical aspect. Singing is also praised as an excellent lung exercise, and public speaking is as effective lgng tonic Us one may wish for. The only drawback to the work of tsla speaker : the foul conaiteis of tue atmosphere in which he has oflsn to ds has work. ilAchange.

Before the days of ehloToforIn there was quaok in San Francisco who advertised tooth drawing without pain. The patient was placed in a chair and wrench given, whom he roared violently. "I thought you said there was no painY' "So there is not by my pFOoess. That Is Cartwright's way. That's the way he docs it. It'a very different from mine Another tug, and still more violent howl. That's the way Dumerge pulls teeth, ' said the unabashed practitioner. You don't like 1t, no doubt. Who wouldf'' Another twist was given, and the patient, az Q rule, howled worse than ever. 'That," the dentist says, Ifs Parkinson'S mode. By this time the tooth was nearly out. "I will NOW, he said, display my own method, whereupon be triumphantly withdrew the tooth and held it up for i1- speotion.

 Off the Malay Coast.
 Sailing up the coast in a native craft. you may almost fancy yourself one of the early explorers skirting the lovely shores of some undiscovered country, AS you sprawl on the bamboo decking under the shadow o3 the immense palm leaf sail-which is so ingeniously rig ged that, If taken aback, the boat must turn turtle, unless, by the blessing og the gods, the mast parts asunder-you look out through half closed eyelids as very beautiful coast. The waves dance and glimmer and shine in the sunlight, the long stretch of sand is as yellow as buttercup. and the fringes of graceful oasuarina trees quiver like sspens in the breeze and simmer in she heat haze. The wash of the waves against the boat s side and the ripple of She bow make music in your drowsy ears, ard as you glide through cluster after cluster of thickly wooded islands you lie in that delightful eomatose stats tn which you have all the pleasure of existence, with none of the labor 0e living. -' h Court and Kampong," hy Hugh Clifford.

CONGRESS convenes today (Mon- dayl and the indications are that tht administration will have q hard time of it. It Is really to be doubted if the administration will get any of it's pet measures through both branches of Congress. The Presi- dent is said to be in favor of U dilia- tory policy with Spain, yet Congress will be very likely to pass bill recog- nizing the belligerency of Cuba; the President is also said to be in favor of retiring the greenbacks, yet such a measure cannot get through the Senate; the President is also said to be in fayor of a change in the revenue laws to cover the de- fieits caused by the D.ngley tariff bill, yet there is no hope for the passage ef such measure through the House; the President stands committed to the civil service law, yet the House is elamorous for it's repeal. Indeed, If the President had not called an extra session of Congress immediately after his in- au9uration, it is to be doubted if the Dingiey tarilf bill would now be the law There is no denying tfe fact that McKinley's administration has already become impotent.

A City That Owns Gas Wells.


 Lancaster, O., is one of tho fortunate cities in whose vicinity natural gas has been struck. The town is moro lucky than others in tho neighborhood of nat ural gas in that Lancaster owns the gas wells herself The story of this munich pal ownership is pleasant one Mir. Mithoff, prominent man ill the thriy- ing little city, bored for gas on his prop erty there He reached an immense flow. Instead of keeping the well for himself, however, ho sold it for a mere nominal sum to tho city of Lanscaster out of pure good will to his homo town. The city authorities bored other wells and struck additional gas veins, None, how ever, equaled the Mithotf well, which is known as the "Old Man Himself
 But altogether there was fine flow of gas, and the authorities set about utilizing 1t. They assumed tho manage ment of the town s wells themselves, fixed proper prices for the fuel and sold it to manufacturers and private houses.
 The result has been most satisfactory. The money from the gas supply has been sufficient to pay hoexpensos of running the waterworks. It has also paid the city debt. There is no taxation of the people for city purposes. The steadily acoruing money will improve and beau tify the city till in time Lancaster will be model city.

One of the first acts of Captain Gen eral Ramon Blanco on his arrival in Cuba was to liberate the crew of the schooner Competitor, held for six months in prison in the island, on the charge of fllibustering. Tho schooner had cargo of arms and ammunition and among her passengers newspaper correspondent, but there was no evi- dence to show that any of the men were designed to recruit the Cuban patriot army nor were any of them captured with arms in their hands Their deten- tion was therefore in violation of the treaty between Spain and the United States
