Put Yourself in His Place.

Correspondence in City and State.
The attempt made by the present ad-
ministration to place the American
people in the position of battering down
by brute force a brave people struggling
for national independence is one that is
filling many of the said American people
with disgust and contempt. If the
present administration desires to sue
ceed itself land there is widespread
belief that does, it will bring this anti
independent war to close as soon as
may be, otherwise its doom is
sealed. Recent reports from Washing
ton are to the effect that our Napoleonic
president has had his ear to the ground
and has heard rumbingS from the West
that are not reassuring. These rumbl-
ings versus the Alger Eagan war con-
tracts and the sacrifice of American
lives in the distant islands Of the Pacific,
in the attempt to conquer desire for
independence, will, when joined with
the increasing anti-war feeling of the
East, make groundswell that will

tratioh ana the president VIII soon snow
great wisdom by laying this lesson to
heart and promptly changing his course.
An illustration drawn from our own
history seems to throw full light on our
present policy. If General Washington
had been waited on Immediately after
the battle of Yorktown by Count
Rochambeau and other leading French
men, and had been addressed somewhat
after the following manner.
Dear General Washingtou.-We have

rubber tube is attached The soil is
removed near the end of the root, and
the closed end of the pipe placed in
position near enough to allow the rub
Der tube to be slipped over the end Of
the root. After it is placed over the
root it is secured with stout cord and
the soil is replaced.
The apparatus is filled with water
and its pressure shows quick effect
generally. In some cases the effect
was noticed within forty-eight hours
in the Wisconsin experiments. In one
instance water pressure was applied
in this way in May to a small beach
tree which had been planted the
month before, but had shown no in.

after the water had been attached the
buds opened sufficiently to show the
leaves plainly. A plum tree was influ-

way.

Digging away with the garden hoe,
Toiling as busily as he can
Eager and earnest, dear little man,
Spoon and shingle are lying by,
With a bit Of evergreen, long since dry.

Chances up with sunny smile
Dimpling his rosy cheeks, the while:

Is 1t Malaria or Alum Z

lTDpuluT CCltHCt hDulHll
Languor, loss of appetite, indigestion,
and often feverishness are Common symp-
toms Of a physiological condition termed
"malaria." All these symptoms may be
and frequently are the effect of the use OF
alnm baking powders in food making.
There is no question about the poisonous
effect OF alum upon the system. 1t
obstructs digestion, prostrates the nerves,
coaglates and devitalizes the blood. All
this has been made clear, thanks to
physicians, boards OF health, and food
commissions. SO "highly injurious to
the health OF the community" does the
eminent head Of the University of Penn
sylvania, DR.. Barker, consider the alum
baking powders, that he says ''their sale
should be prohibited by law"
Under these circumstances it is worth
the while OF every housewife to employ
the very little care that is necessary tc
keep SO dangerous an element from thu
food OF her family.
A pure cream OF tartar baking powder
which is the only. kind that should b'
used, ought to cost about forty-iive t.
fifty cents a pound. Therefore, If You arr
paying much less, something is wrong
II you are paying twenty-five cents o
less per pound, the powder is c~ertsinl
made from alum.
Always bear these simple facts In mini
when purchasing baking powder.

MORE ABOUT DR.. BRIGGS.
WAvERLY, May %, 1899.

Editor Intelllgencer.
With due respect for the "moulders OF
public opinion" permit me to say that
DR.. Briggs ordination has nothing to do
with Presbyterienism, EpiscOpacy or
charity. He teaches heresy, aud should
not be allowed in the pulpit OF any
church. He teaches that some parts of
the Bible to be accepted and other
parts rejected. He Is another man who
Ia trying I O upset Moses. The standing
committee should not have recommended
him for ordination. However we will
hope that he has seen the error Of his
ways and Tepsnted. The enclosed does
not contain anything schismatic. II Is
wholly orthodox and can be accepted by
all christians. Your obedient servant,
MRS. NOTE.
Mrs. Motto encloses US a copy OF DIR.
Briggs sermon on the "Holy Ghost"
which We have not space to publish. The
sermon IL oil right, but DR.. Briggs has
preached many sermons that are all
wrong. In regard 10 the statement Of
Mrs. Motto that DR.. Briggs ordination
has nothing to do with Presbyterianism
Episcopacy or charity, we beg 10 differ
lie was, we believe, a Presbyterian
preacher. His sermons were not In accort
with the teaching Of that church, and b
was deprived Of his pulpit, and OF tn
power to preach In the name OF tina
church. This, In our opinion, was YER.
proper. He has gone into the Episcopa
church, and that organization must &c
, rid of him, or put up with hegesy, G
convert him.
A church, like a political party, ca
tolerate considerable latitude in tn
opinion OF a private member, proyidin
he believes In the great fundamenta
facts; but neither car tolerate a leade
who proclaims false doctrines. DR.. Brlgg
Is a very talented man, and going fort
. under the cloak OF a church, and preach
Ing heresy, will bring the church int
disrepute. The church must purge itse
! Of false teachers.
