HoWLlNo MAcDONALDITES.
A New Sect Which Does Amazing
ThingssWhilc WorshipinE.


ThinBssWhtIc Worshiping.
There is a new religious sect in Cam
bridge, Mass, the members of which
style themselves MacDonaldites. They
settled here about a year ago, but it is
only recently that they have had a set
lied place of worship. They are pros
porous financially and purchased few
months ago little chapel formerly
used by the Free Will Baptists. They
outgrew this and last month invested
$4,000 in a chapel on Hampshire street,
formerly known as the First Reformed
Episcopal church. One peculiar fea-
ture of the worship of the Macdonald
ties is the immense amount of noise
they always make in conducting serv-
ices. The people in the vicinity of the
chapel say the representatives of the
new sect are so enthusiastic in their
demonstrations during the meetings
that they make life a burden to anyone
within hearing.
The regular meetings are held on
Tuesday, Thursday and Sunday even
ings and the congregation as a whole at
each meeting works itself up to state
of frenzy similar to the wild excite
ment of an old-fashioned Methodist
camp meeting, but far more intense.
There are perhaps $50 men, women and
children in the congregation, entirely
from the working class of people.
There Is apparently no pastor or other
spiritual leader. After few words of
prayer or exhortation the audience
sings from hymn book. Soon the
books are laid aside and by rapid
process Of evolution the musical notes
become howls, shrieks ard groans, as
If from souls in mortal distress. The
movements g the bodies are unnatural
and physically distressing. The face
is distorted, the lower limbs drawn up,
| and the head thrown back. Men and
women rise from their seats and sway
their bodies 10 apd fro as they emit
ear-piercing yells. Gradually the mns-
cles stiffen and the eyes becom,
set until the enthusiast seems to be in
trance. After this condition has cor
tinued for an hour or so the worsbir-
ers suddenly seem to recover their nor
NAL selves and the meeting comes to
an abrupt close.
The members of this strange sect are
| good citizens. They are not disposed
to be talkative about their religion

swELLINas FROM BLOWS.
Nature Causes Them to Appear to Pro-
tect Spot from Further Injury.

Nature Causes Them to Appear to Pro-
tect Spot from Further Injury.
The swelling which follows from
blow is natures effect to protect the
part from further injury and to keep 1t
at rest while repair is going on. Nhal
actually takes place at the seat Of in
jury is not even now quite understood.
The injury to the smaller blood vessels
interferes with the flow of blood
through them and the white corpuscles,
with part of the serum, the watering
part of the blood, escapes into the sur
rounding tissues. At the same time the
blood vessels in the neighborhood dilatc
and the increased flow of blood with the
thoroughfare obstructed increases tbr
swelling. 1t is probable that the white
corpuscles of the blood pass into the
tissues to assist in the repair, as bees
or ants assemble at an injury to their
storehouse, but with the difference that
the substance Of the corpuscles is prob
ably converted into the tissue Of repair.
From one point of view the human body
is only one gigantic colony Of indi-
viduals, and the swelling that follows
injury but the rush of these to repair
that breach.

The Florida agriculturist. [volume] (DeLand, Fla.) 1878-1911, 1897-10-27
It: is Easy to Tell

People who fail to look after their
health are like the carpenter who neg
lects, to sharpen his. tools. People are
not apt to get, anxious, about their
health soon enough. If you are mot
quite well'' or ''half sick have you
ever thought that your kidneys may
be the cause of your sickness?
1t is easy to tell by setting aside
your urine or twenty-four hours; a
sediment or settling indicates an un>
healthy condition of the kidneys.
When urine stains linen it is evidence
of kidney trouble. Too frequent de-
sire to urinate, scanty supply, pain
or dull ache in the back is also con-
vincing proof that the kidneys and
bladder are out of order.
There is satisfaction in knowing
that the great remedy DR.. Kilmer's
Swamp-Root, fulfills every wish in re-
lieving weak or diseased kidneys and
all forms of bladder and urinary trou-
bles. Not only does Swamp-Root give
new life and activity to- the kidneys
the cause of trouble, but by treating
the Kidneys it acts as tonic for the
entire constitution. If you need 81
medicine take Swamp -Root-it cures.
Sold by druggists, price fifty cents
and one dollar, or by sending your ad-
dress and the name of this paper to
DR.. Kilmer & Co. Binghamton, N. Y,
yau may have sample bottle of this
great discovery sent to you free by
mail.

farmer, eff you've all had your laugh
out, weed better proceed to business;
the thing now. is to drive home the
ghost"
This they proceeded to do; not all,
however, for Bessie and esome one else
the reader must guess who-manag-
ed to stay behind, and they seemed i'm
as little hurry to get back as did the
runaway porker.
ooh, Wilbert," said Bessie, in an ag-
grieved tone, what could have been
the matter with you today? L saw you
coming, and went out, thinking that
you would stop minute, as it had
been such a long time since we had
seen each other, but you seemed cross,
and did not even look up''
81 had had hard luck, and felt blue"
Wilbert replied. "They told me at the
factory that there would be no more
work, and that meant very gloomy
outlook for mother and L; but it prov
ed in this case that the darkest hour
was just before the dawn, for [ had
hardly got home before l saw the
owner of the factory driving up to
our house; and what do you think?
He told me that he was sorry that he
had not been in when [ was at the
factory, as he wanted to talk with me,
and before he left, he engaged me as
foreman Of the bottoming department,
with a salary which nearly took my
breath away when he mentioned it,
81 am so glad" said Bessie.
81 rode back with Mr.. B., to get ac-
quainted with my new duties, and
while at the village went to the post
office, and here was another surprise,
for [ found letter that contained the
news that a story l had written and
sent to a magazine so long ago that
had almost forgotten about it, had
been accepted. The check enclosed
was not a large amount, but it was
large enough, with my previous good
fortune, to check any further continu
ance of the blues And, Bessie, dur
ing all of this good luck, somehow,

of the cars to leave the track and

A serious accident occurred on the

about midnight. This company was
transporting number of dilapidated,
old rotten cars from the Florida Mid
land road to Callahan, and the trucks
gave way just after leaving tine tank,

you were constantly in my mind. Can
you guess the reasOn?"
Bessie's answer was only to cling
little tighter to Wilbert's arm.
$50 when [ got back I could not
help coming over to tell you all about
it; and now, to crown the days happi-
ness, [ have this delightful walk with
you. Do you know, I could almost hug
that pig for being the cause of this
happiness?"
"Well, by gum!'
Wilbert and Bessie were startled
bv this exclamation. 1t seems that
Sammy had become tired, and had sat
down upon a stone by the side of the
road to rest, and had, unperceived,
heard Wilbert's last remark as Bessie
and he came UP.
'Well, by g'um!" he repeated, will

"Joe Willkins's ghost" furnished
laughing material to that community
for long time, and it will probably
be many years before the affair is en-
tirely forgotten by the fun-lovlng
farmers of that section.
AS for Joe, he kept close at home
for weeks, being afraid of the Jeers
he would justly receive If he ventured
out: but after a while he began TO
think that his prospective wealth
might 90 long way toward making
the Johnsons overlook his cOwardly
dventure-that Bessie might yet look
with favor upon his suit, so he did the
on]v brave thing that probably Will
ever be recorded of him; he went over
IN Ressie's. determined to ask her the
same question he had had in mind on
the night of his former unfortunate
visit.
He found Bessie in the sitting-room,
dressed in her dainty blue gown with
mink ribbons, which matched her eyes
and cheeks to perfection. She was
waiting for some one, apparently.
"Ah," thought Joe, "could love nave
OWNED my coming. -
"Bessie," said he, II know you
thought we'll Of me once, and your
father encouraged me to think that
Won would consent to become my
wife; tell me, is there still chance
for me?"
And Bessie, as she hears footsteps
coming up the walk, which Joe also
boars with embarrassment, answers,
"No, Joe; not a ghost OF a chance"

Three pretty round and plump
The Florida agriculturist. [volume] (DeLand, Fla.) 1878-1911, 1897-10-27

Three pretty round and plump
calves were the objects of much adj
miration yesterday morning, from
crowd of by ISLANDERS in front OF the
express office. They were as pretty
as pictures, and looked as round ana
fat as guinea pigs. They are of the
Heresford breed, which are noted, for
always being fat, and being extremely
docile. They were shipped to Dungeon
ness where they will be bred. We hope
the experiment will prove successful
as this breed will much improve the
native stock.-Fernandina Mirror.
