Curt and WHY.

"The following story of the Arch
bishop of Canterbury. says The Sun
day Magazine. "came from Lambeth
the other day. and even if it be not
quite authentic it illustrates most adj
mirably the archiepiscopal method with
those Of his clergy who have not won
his favor, as well as the rugged aptness
Of his wit. An incumbent Of living
wanted to hold another living in plu-
rality, and therefore had to apply to
the archbishop for leave to do 50. What
happened may without disrespect to
the cloth be put in a dramatic form:
Scene-Lambeth. Time, 1897.
ArChbishop-How far is the new liv-
ing from your present curel
Apphcant-About six miles as the
crow flies, your grace
ArchbishOp-You' re not n crow. you
can't fly and you shan have it.

A FOrerunner of the Most
Fatal Disease.

Though its offensive features
are sometimes almost unbearable,
few people are aware of the danger
of which Catarrh is the forerun-
ner. Catarrh invariably leads to
Consumption. Growing worse and
worse each winter, those who rely
upon the usual treatment of
sprays, washes and inhaling mix
lures find that it is impossible to
check the disease with these local
applications which only reach the
surface. The offensive discharge
increases all the while, causing a
feeling of personal defilement, and
gets deeper and deeper until it is
only question Of a short time
until the lungs are affected.
The Importance of the proper
treatment can therefore be readily
appreciated. But no good what
ever can be expected from local
applications, as such treatment
never did cure Catarrh, and never
will. q

Refused Article. of Incorporation.

Trenton, N. j., June %. -Attorney-
General Gray, this morning, filed an
opinion with the Secretary Of State ad-
vising the refusal of articles of moor.
poration to the American Isthmus Ship
Canal Co The articles provide for an
authorized capital of $40, 600, with the
proviso that the capital stock might be
increased to $3.50, 600, 600 by a vote of
the holders of not less than three
fourths of the capital stock. This pro-
viso is in conflict with the New Jersey
statute which gives to the holders OF
two-thirds of the capital stock the
power to increase the authorized CAPT
tai. The Secretary of State will, later
10 the day, return the papers to the
company. The company was intended
to be incorporated here to build q ship

Those named as incorporates were
