Il 1t Right For an Editor to Recommend
Patent Medicines?

(From Sylvan Valley News, Brevard, N. c.
IT may be a question whether the editor of
a newspaper has the right to publicly recon
mend any Of the various proprietary medi-
cnes which food the market, yet as a pre-
ventive of suffering we feel it duty 20 say
good word for Chamberlain's Collie Cholera
and Diarrhoea Remedy We have known and
used this medicine in our family for twenty
years and have always found it reliable. In
many cases n dose of this remedy would save
hours of suffering while physician is await
ed. We do not believe in depending implicitly
on any medicine for a cure, but We do believe
that il bottle of Chamberlain's Diarrhoea
Remedy were kept on hand and administered
at the inception of an attack much suffering
might be avoided and in very many cases the
presence Of physician would not be requir-
ed. At least this has been our experience
during the past twenty years. For sale by

Vermont's corn crop for the year
1900 looks as though it would be a
ord-breaker, the hay crop taking
back seat, but the heavy rains of
the past ten days may thicken it out

the yield.
Complaint comes to us that the
pond lily blossoms 10 the little lake

been plucked and carried away. 1t
took some time and money to start
this little aqua garden, dedicated as
a loving tribute to thosegOne before,
and those interested would like to
see these blossoms of the valley, re-
ferred to by the Master, bloom, grow
old and die in their bed. They who
watch over the last resting place of
ancestors, be they heather, half civil
LIKED or Christian, resent any intru-
sion, and well they may. The living
can care for themselyes-those who
have preceded us in the onward
march can NOT defend these rights,
and how much more should we defend
them. Another grievance that the
Commissioners call attention to is
that some of those doing work on

Joining lots, instead Of carting it

UNlvERsALIsTs IN COUNCIL.
Ninety-seventh Annual Session of Northern
Association.

Ninety-seventh Annual Session of Northern
Association.
The 9th annual session Of the
Northern Association Of UNIVERSAL
lists was held at the UniveTsalist
church in St. bloomsbury June 81 and
%. At $50 a. m, Wednesday the
convention was called to order by
the President, A. W. Roberts, who
called upon the pastor of the church,
Rev. |. p. Qaimby, to offer prayer.
After the organization of the council
a fairly encouraging report Of mis-
siOnary work in the Province Of
Quebec was given by Rev. E. Smile
of North Hatley, 2. @ After some
few of the parish reports were given,
dinner was served in the vestry Of the
church.
At 2 o'clock followed reports from
parishes, Sunday-schOOls and Unions.
These were all crpditabIe TO the differ
ent societies, notably so the one Of
the little parish OF West Concord.
Next in order was the Occasional
sermon by Rev. II. E. Benton Of
Derby Line, a practical discourse.
He said, while the ministry may do
some things to inspire, the people
must sustain him. The people exert
lordship over ministers. All depends
upon the people. Now is the critical
period of our church. The speaker
did not feel that the majority of
Universalists were so welded TO their
church as to give itsuccess. The ser
mon was followed by communion,
Rev. Messrs Booth and Stevens at
the table.
In the evening R.v. / P Quimby
gave, in his earnest fearless way,
"The Inspirational Power Of the For
ward Look as applied to Our Faith"
AS an illustration of inspiratOnal
faith he would have in the hearts and
minds of Universalsts, he took the
case of one Margaret Felner, who
planted the Baptist church in Can
ada. OF Incidents in his own ex-
perience, he quoted a Congregation
alist woman in a Maine town, and
the Freedom, n H., blacksmith, who
was so converted to UniversaIism,
heart, soul and pocketbook, that he
would work at the forge six days in
the week and give one days work Of
that to Universalism on the seventh.
Mr. Quimby believed that when Uni
versalists had the power of inspira-
ton of the forward look, which he
said was naught Else than the esprit
of Christ" dwelling in their hearts,
then would come their millennium.
On Thursday conference meeting
was followed by election of officers.
A. w. Roberts was reelected Presi-
dent and Miss Martha Jenness Clerk.
A spiritual and uplifting sermon was
given by Rev. |. p. Booth. In the
afternoon Rev. +. Y. Stevens gave an
earnest, foIcble talk, which, while it
did not really touch upon Church
Ordinances" needed to make the
parish q success, was a good pre-
sentation Of what Spirituality" will
do to make us what we should be.
Action was taken to form a Northern
Aid Association, and to have the
next meeting a grove meeting at
WiIluughby Lake.

However. If in New York. the home Of all
that is blase. knowing and mscrupulous
in American civilization, there can be
found a man guileless enough TO try such
an experiment. and people righteous
enough to cast aside temptation in
this way. there is hope that America may
be able to hold up her head among the ma
tions Of the earth. after all with a rea-
sonabiy good reputation for honesty.
There is one feature Of the incident
which. it must be said, is Enthusiastically
American. The four people who returned
the pocketbOoks Of the eXperimenter one
and all refused reimbursement for their
trouble. They came from widely varying
positions in society but they all had that
thoroughly American idea that it was not
the proper thing to take pay for being
honest Even the children of American
parents are often drilled. as the little girl
in thus case was. to feel that an independ-
ent character will refuse gratuities. The
freshman who refused money but ac-
cepted a drink lin company with the
giverl. exhibited a spirit quite as charac-
teristic Of our Republic as that Of refusing
all reward. He was willing to accept
token Of gratitude and friendly feeling
but not Of patronage

SHELLS FOUND DEFECTIVE.
Rear Admiral O'NeiI Orders an In.
yesti@ntf0n TO BE Made

Rear Admiral O'Neil Chief Of Ordnance
Of the Navy Department. has ordered an
inves tigstion of alleged defective ammu-
milton made for the Navy Department BY
the briggs Seabury Gun and Ammunition
Company Of Derby Conn. 1t is said that
several hundred shells manufactured BY
this company have been found too small
for the calfbre Of the guns they were in
tended for. aud in many other ways are de-
fective.
Admiral O'NcH said yesterday: 'I was
informed some time ago that the shells
being made by the briggs Se8bury Com
pany were not up to the required standard
and [ ordered that all shells recently made
by that company be inspected. The inspec-
ton showed that there were about 600
shells cat Of 5000 or 6.Gt0 which We're
smaller than they should have been. and
possibly defective in other ways.
81 ordered four Of the worst of these
shells sent to the Washington Navy Yard
and they viii be tested at the Indian Head
proving ground within a very short time
Exactly now defective these shells are wi,
not be known until after the tests are
made.
81 have instructed the company to make
"a ltl0l e iA tue Sittl0 anu nave dlcb asked
for reports from the naval inspectors sta
toned az the company plant. and action
will be withheld until all the parties have
been heard
"The Inspector at the plant has known
for some time that the company was max
ing shells smaller than the required size
and then expanding them. but I SUPPOSE
that he thought the shells would meet the
necessary requirements and permitted
Them to be passed. OF course. il his judg
menJ has erred. he will have to stand the
consequences. All the defective ammuui-
ton will be returned 10 the company and
charged up TO IT, The company has fur
nizhed a large number CT good shells IN
the past. and | do not believe that the
present lot will be found very defective
The Navy Department is in no danger OF
having inferior ammunition passed OFF on
it. and all the shells accepted viii have
to be OF the best quality"
