he had consulted many physicians, though he
said, to be entirely fair, he had never been any
great length of time under treatment by any
one doctor because of his itinerant mode OF
life. In the early part of the summer of 1896,
Wall Street Methodist Church in evangelistic
services, he was speaking of his trouble to q
friend who urged him TO try DIR. Williams
Pink Pills, and next day presented him with Q
dozen boxes 81 took the pills." said Mr..
Dunnett. land I declare to you / am a well
man to-day: 1 used to worry a great deal
over the pain about my heart, but that is all
gone now, and i feel like a new man." All
this the reverend gentleman told in a simple
conversational way, and when it was sug-
gested that he let it be known, he rather
demurred, because, as he put il, II am almost
afraid to say / am cured, and yet there is no
man enjoying better health to-day than / do"
At that time, at Mr.. Dunnett's request,
his statement was only published locally,
but now writing under the date of Jan. 21E,
from F~itchburg, Mass, where he has been
conducting a very successful series of evan
gelistic meetings, he says: Il had held back
from writing in regard to my health, not be-
too good 70 be true that the old time pain
had gone. / cannot say whether il will ever
return, but / can certainly say it has not
troubled me for months, and i am in better

A SUCCESSFUL EVANGELIST
Rev. w. A. Dunnett, a Man Whose Good Work L.
Widely Knoxville Relates Events i'm His
Career of General Interest.
Nrom TIE Smifh's Hulls Record.

. Throughout Canada, from the western
boundary of Ontario to the Atlantic Ocean,
there 10 no name more widely known in tem-
perance and svangelistic work than that of the
Rev. w. A Dunnett. Mr.. Dunnett has been
the Grand vice-Councillor of Ontario and
Quebec in the Royal Templars, and so popular
10 he among the members Of the order that in
Montreal there il a Royal Templars council
named "Dunnett Council" in his honor. For
more than ten years Mr.. Dunnett has been go
ing from place TO place pursuing his good
work, sometimes assisting resident minister's,
,ometimes conducting q series of gospel tenn
perance meetings independently, but always
!a6oring for the good of his fellows. While
N Smiths Falls q few months ago in connection
with his work he dropped into the Record office
for q little visit with the editor. During the
conversation the Record ventured to remark
hat his duties e~ntailed an enormous amount of
bard work. To this Mr.. Dunnett assented, but
added that in his present physical condition
he was equal to any amount of hard work.
But 1t was not always so, he said, and then
he gave the writer the following little per-
sonal history. with permission to make it
public. He said that for the past thirteen
years he had been greatly troubled with q
pain in the region of his heart. from which
he was unable to get any relief. At times il
was a dull. heavy pain, at others sharp and
severe. Oftentimes it rendered him unfit
for his engagements, and at all times it
made it difficult to move. His trouble was
always visible to the public and frequently
when conducting service he would give out
and doctors had to be called in to attend

"Yes, l know" said Kate. But to
our good folks there is only one hospi-

Mr.. Amory enjoyed his tea-sliced
peaches and delicate ''angel cake
very much, as he sat tete-d-tete with Kate
Duer by the soft light of the shaded
lamp, while the rain battered without.
And when the doctor came in it was
cozier yet.

that is safely isolated at Hopes Quarry,
since this morning, and doing very
well, too, / & am happy to say. Upon my
word, Mr.. Amory, l am sorry you have
had such a disastrous experience"
Miss Lydia Larkspur was quite in
dignant when she heard that Mr..
Amory was staying at DR.. Duer's resi-
dence.
"Just like Kate Duer," said she, ito
to get that poor young man
into her hands, after all. But if a man
rushes all around the country, telling
everybody hat he comes from a hos.

And then she rang for the servant

Mrs Printemps lived in the next
house-a picturesque cottage overhung
with Virginia creepers, with a little

Fragments of horn and ivory, engraved
with excellent pictures of animals.
have been found in caves and beds of
rivers and lakes. There are speci-

In the latter collection are chairs or
seats of the sixteenth century b. c. in
laid with ivory, and other pieces of the
eleventh century B. c. We have al
ready referred to the Nineveh worries.
Carving of the precious substance
was extensively carried on at Constan-
tinople d~uringthe middle ages. Combs,
caskets, horns, boxes, etc, of carved
ivory and bone. often set in precious
stones, of the old Roman and Anglo

It's Glory Has Departed.

In the days of its prosperity Bath,
Me-, had almost five miles of busy ship
yards. The town had never done any
thing else for a living than to build and
sail ships, but it pIospered in that.
Thirty or more years ago its harbor wa
always filed with shipping, and its
streets were busy with trade. But
there has been a steady decline since the
end of the war, and a vivid exemplifica-
ton of the decay in American shipping.
At present not one wooden vessel is
being built in the town, and there is
not a vessel intended for the merchant
marine on the way. Old ship owners
are selling their vessel property as fast
as they are able to co so, and putting
their money into other things that pay
better interest, and unless some change
is quickly made in the economic con-
ditions of the country affecting ship
ping, it is evident that Bath and a great
many other towns of the same character
will be compelled to go out of the bust
ness of building ships.-N. Y. Post.

There is in Tennessee a family OF

period of the year when any member
