plies valued at t55 90. The box was
left Monday night In an unlocked ante
room Of the Baptist church, and some
person or persons took from It some

them. But we are sure of our religion.
AS seen in the lite teaching and sacrifice of
Christ, it is the perfect and final religion.
1.-THE most serious question of the GEN.
fury is now before our nation; Shall we
COLOMBO, enlarge our territory? With or
against our will, some real expansion is
necessary. AS a board we can make no
utterance concerning annexation. We
have no political message. We assure
all nations tina: no political advantage
shall come to America through our mis-
sions. We desire to give. not to receive,
yet we have an ambition for expansion.
We desire that the spirit OF education
that has inspired us shall inspire all
lands and make them national, having
first made them worthy Of so great a
gift. We have a mission, not to appro-
pirate lands, but to create nations. 1t is
a greater glory to Christianize the world
than to make it American. Through the
expansion OF religion shall come the ex-
pansion of America. We shall become
really great by giving the unnational
races that gospel that has been the
source and power of our state. A board
of foreign missions is the true American
board"

months she lost twenty three pounds.
I'VE did everything possible for her,
and she had the best of medical treatment.
"Several skilled physicians attended
her, but no benefit was apparent.
"A family friend visiting Us, told how
her daughter had been similarly affected,
bot cured by DR.. Williams Pink Pills for
Pale People.
"She urged us to try the pills, and we
1--WE have always rejoiced that we did.
"The pills helped Lucy at once, and
after taking eight boxes she was entirely
cured.
"She is now In perfect health, strong,
weighs ten pounds more than ever before,
and her cheeks are foil of color.
1.-Two years Of schooling were missed
on account Of Ill health, but now she can
crafty her ambition to study and Become
an educated woman"
The reason that DR.. Williams Pink Pills
for Pale People were helpful in the above
case, is that they are composed Of vegeta-
BILE remedies which act directly on the
impure blood, the Foundation Of disease.
As the blood rushes through all parts
Of the body, the conveyer Of good or bad
health, 1t is necessary that 1t should be
pure, rich and red.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills build Up the
blood by supplying its life giving elements
which nourishes the various organs, slim
ulating them to activity in the perform
ance OF their functions and thus drives
disease from the system.
The pills are in universal demand and
sold by all druggists.

disease from 16 to Is will almost surely

We are glad the Spanish.A American war
IS over, and we are glad of the splendid
record which our American soldiers have
made. We are also glad that a wise
man, our Vermont Dewey, was the nan
in charge of the Philippine Islands. An.
other kind OF man might have brought
America into difficulty in all this eastern
land. His wisdom and courage are adj
mired by all the people in the East. We
hope that America will not let 90 all
those islands till a good government
with religious liberty is secured to the
people. We do not seem far from you at
such times. The Spanish fleet was de-
stroyed on a Sunday, and we in the

IN our daily paper, so nearly have the
ends OF the earth come together. At the
beginning of the war our European
friends in the East asked what America
could do without a navy. Now they ask

talks any more about America having
no power on the sea.

Mark Twain as a Stump Speaker.

Once in a while Mark has taken a hand
in politics. On one occasion, being in
vited to speak in the interest of his fell
low-townsman, General Joseph Hawley,
who was a candidate for reelection to
the United States Senate, he said, in the
course of a droll address: General
Hawley deserves your support, although
he has about as much influence in purify
ing the Senate as a bunch of flowers
would have in sweetening a glue factory.
But he's all right: he never would urn
any poor peggar away from his door
empty,nanded. He always gives them
somethlng-almost without exception a
letter OF introduction to me, urging me
to help them. October Ladies' Home

Palatable Sweet Pickles.

Use for these the rind of a good sized
watermelon. Pare aud cut into thick
slices. Boil one ounce OF alum in a gal
lon of water and pour owe the sliced
melon, letting it stand on the back of the
stove for half a day. Remove from the
alum water and let it lie in cold water
until cold; drain. Have ready a quart
of vinegar, three pounds of brown sugar,
an ounce OF stick cinnamon and hall an
ounce of cloves. Boil sugar and vinegar;
strain; add the spices and rind, and boil
until the rind is soft. For peaches and
pears use the same proportions OF vine
gar and sugar, but not quite so much
spice.
A satisfactory green tomato pickle IS
made thus: Slice one peck OF green to-
matoes half an inch thick and six white
onions, and place in an earthen jar in lay
ers, with a cup Of salt s~prinkled between.
Let them remain over night, then drain
thoroughly and scald in one quart OF
vinegar and two of water mixed. Mean
while mix together two pounds Of brown
sugar, quarter Of a pound Of mustard, a
teaspoonful Of ground ginger and one OF
black pepper, one teaspoontul OF cloves
two of cinnamon and a paper OF celery
seed. When the tomatoes n onions
have lust scalded, drain and cover again
with fresh vinegar and the spices. Cook
ten or fifteen minutes, stirring occasion
ally with a wooden spoon, and pack IN
glass jars.

interest and imboyt.

II Is important that the nerves are care
fully guarded. Mothers who have young
daughters Of school age should watch their
health more carefully than their studies.
The proper development Of their bodies
Is Of first importance.
After the confinement Of the school
room, plenty Of outdoor exercise should
be taken. It is better that children never
learn their a, b, c's, than that by over
study they lose their health.
All this is self-evident. Everyone ad-

does not know how to build the health Up

MATTERS CONCERNING WOMEN.
News Of women's Colleges.

about 200 new students, OF whom 1870

instruments for the astronomical observa-
tory.

stances. The college accommodations
are overtaxed and many students are
boarding in the village, while a great
number OF applications have been de-
clined since April, when the lists were all
filled. Several changes have been made
during the summer in the way of improv-
ing the grounds by removing old build
ings from recently purchased land and

The Tune of "Yankee DoodIe.u

Those who had always supposed this
popular song was of American origin
will be interested in the following letter
from a correspondent of the London
Daily Telegraph: +.
1T may be news to most people to lie
apprised of the fact that the air of the
American national song, Yankee Doodle
was originally that of a cavalier ditty,
and was possibly whistled by the Lon,
don street arabs of royalist sympathies
with the object Of irritating the round
heads. Only it was 'Nankee Doodle
then, an unmeaning appellation applied
to no less a parsonage than Oliver Crom-
well, who rode into Oxford with ii single
plume in his hat, fastened in a knot, call
ed at the period a 'macaroni.' 'Nankee
Doodle crossed the Atlantic at a con-
venient time. Then the tern Yankee,
applied originally strictly to a New Eng
lander, was beginning to be used COLO
hee,' the Indian fashion of p%ronouncing
English when the initial m in 'Nankee'
in the ~effusion was discontinued and "
substituted. The tune was adopted by
the revolutionary colonists more in the
spirit Of retaliation than anything else.
When Lord Percy's brigade m lrched out
Of Boston the bands played Yankee
Doodle as a mark of contempt for the
inhabitants. But the colonists uttered
a threat, and carried it out, that before
the wal was v Percy's brigade would
have to dance to the despised tune, and
they had to. 1t had been contended
that in 1855 DR.. Shuckburgh wrote
Yankee Doodle but the best authori-
ties are agreed that in it's original form
it was composed to deride the Crom-
wellians. 1t may be noted that the late
President Grant was so innocent of mu-
sic that he only knew two tunes. One
was Yankee Doodle and the other
