DR.. JASPER ON THE SUN.
His Famous Sermon Shows That 1t
Really Moves.

r
Really Moves.
Among the show places Of the city of
Richmond. the Sixth Mount Zion Bap-
fist Church, with its pastor, the Rev.
John Jasper, Is now regarded in the
same rank as the capitol or the site OF
Libby prison. But he ought to be, for
he is the author of that famous SER
mon on the sun, called The Sun Do
Move" DR.. Jasper is proud Of his
sermon and loves TO dilate on the vari-
Gus times and places in which he has
delivered his unique argument. 1t was
first heard in his own church, and then
by request in the Market house before
vast gathering. After that, under
the direction of the LyceUm bureau,
which paid him 500 month and all
his travelling expenses, he delivered II
in Baltimore, Washington, Philadel-
phia, Camden, Pittsburg and many
other places, convincing many deep
thinkers of the fallacieS of the now
generally accepted theory of the solar
system. The doctor lives in a little
room near his church, in which he well
His masterpiece Is an attack on the
doctrines of Mir" Copernicus, who,
he says, "claims that the earth revOlves
on axles;' Mr. Isaac Newton and
Mr." Herschel, and other scientists of
their calibre. He is not at all sure of
where these eminent philosophers re
side a present, but lie has vague idea
that it is up North somewhere The
text for the sermon DR.. Jasper finds in
Exodus. 1t is. The Lord is a Man Of
War; the Lord is His Name 1t IS a
long way from this to a philosophical
position Of his argument. This he es-
tablishes by quoting from Revelation
the verse which relates to the spectacle
of four angels standing on the four
corners of the earth holding the four
winds Through this he points out that
the earth is square, and not round, ac-
cording to the general belief which las
existed for some years. Or the fact
that the sun really does move he brings
the Scriptures again to bear witness,
notably in the Psalm beginning, From
the rising of the sun" But in Joshua's
Jasper finds his greatest argument and
his peroration. The eighth verse OF
the thirty eighth chapter of Isaiah and
the twelfth and thirteenth verses Of the
tenth chapter of Joshua end the ser
mon thus: Behold, | will bring again
the shadow Of the degrees, which is
gone down in the sun dial Of Ahaz ten
degrees backward; so the sun returned
degrees, by which degrees it was gone
down" Thus spake Joshua to the
Lord in the day when the Lord deliy-
cred up the Amorites before the chill
drer of Israel, and he said in the sight
of Israel, sun. stand thou still upon
Gideon. and thou. Moon, in the valley
of Aialon. And the sun stood still, AND
the moon stayed until the people had
avenged themselves upon their en-
emieS."

1nfrinSements on Their Bitters Not

The United States Circuit Court for
the Southern District of New York,
Judge Townsend presiding, handed down
an opinion Dee. %. 1897, granting in
junction and accounting, in the suit of
The Hostetter Company against Isaac
Sommers and Louis Joseph, for infringe
ment of it's Trade Mark. The jurist
states. in bold and clear language, the
rights accruing to the Hostetter Com
pany, and the liability incurred by all
who would rob them. by fraud or mis-
representation, of the wellearned repu-
tation and profits of a business built up
by the efforts of half century. The
Judge says. in part:
The complainant is entitled to protec-
ton against the appropriation of its trade
mark, by any and all unfair and dishon-
orable means. and a court of equity has
power to grant such protection when
ever it is satisfied that an attempt has
been made by ingenious subterfuges, to
invade the rights of an owner of trade
mark. In the sharp contest be
tween the individual manufacturer, who
strives to acquire and retain the fruits
of industry and honesty, and the field of
keen rivals, seeking to wreSt from him

FOOD IN TINS.
Precautions Necessary to Avert Dangers
OF Pofson,

II cannot be doubted that certain foods
preserved in tins afford an auxiliary and
convenient source of food supply which
cannot well be dispensed with, and, that
being -. any suggestion calculated 10 IN
sure the whoicS0meuess of the food so
preserved is entitled to every consldera-
ton. We do not believe that the mis-
chief that now and again arises from
the consumption of timed food is re
terrable to the presence of the metal.
I'm Is a comparatively harmless metal,
while the iron over which it is yenecrcd
IS quite free from risk. The lead in
the solder employed may. however, give
rise to poisoning, but we believe that
50 well is the sealing process done that
cases of this kind are rare. The dan
gers of timed food generally arise from
an inherent change in the food itself,
and there Is no doubt that the longer
the food is preserved the greater is the
chance of its being unwholesome. while,
as Is well known, as soon as the food
thus preserved is exposed to the air GER
tain cha ngeS rapidly set in, and for this
reason the food should be partaken of
as soon as possible after the tin is Opend
DR.. Sykes, the medical officer of health
OF st. IancraS. makes what would ap-
pear TO he useful and practical sugges-
ton in his annual report, which is that
the law should provide that all tins con-
tanning timed food shall have stamped
upon them the date of timing Assum-
ing that the correct date of timing were
thus stamped upon the tin, the public
would be able to judge in some measure
of the whOlesOmeneSs of the contents,
since il is reasonable To suppose that the
enclosed food would not improve on pro-
longed keeping. We trust that the sug-
gestion will be brought before the notice
and consideration of the proper author

No Difference.

Physical troubles of a Ike nature
coming from different causes are often
a puzzle to those who suffer pain AS TO
their treatment and cure. as in the case
of lumbago from cold or n strain in
some way to the same muscles. The
treatment of such need not differ one
with the other. Both are bad enough
and should have prompt attention. as
nothing disables so much as lame
back. The use of st. Jacobs Oil will
settle the question. Its efficacy is so
sure in either case there is no difference
In the treatment and no doubt of the
cure.
