Stomach Except Alcohol.
Bancroft, Mich, Feb. 20.-Mrs. A.
Tyrell, widow who lives few miles
northwest of this place, has not en-
joyed a square meal in two years, and
her case is a puzzle to all the physi-
clans in the neighborhood. Mrs. Ty-
rell has been suffering from stomach
trouble for many years. Two years
ago her condition became such that
she was unable to retain any solid
food.
Her physician prescribed raw eggs
beaten up in whisky, but she rebelled
against the eggs, and ever since then
her diet has been pure whisky and 9TH
err alcoholic stimulants. The woman
is gradually becoming weaker and has
been reduced in flesh until she Is al
most skeleton. There is NO hope
for her ultimate recovery.

At the recent session of the Genesee
Methodist Episcopal conference in
North Tonawanda, N. Y, the Rev. DR..
James R. Day, chancellor of Syracuse
university, made a speech Of great en-
ergy in behalf of collegiate education.
He grouped together the names Of
judges Of the supreme court, governors
of states, ministers OF different denomi-
nations and other leading men and
said, "All of these were college gradu-
ates.'
Then he turned around to Bishop Nc
Cabe, who was presiding, and said,
From what institution were you grad
uated, bishop" receiving the prompt
response, From Libby prison"
The suddenness and fitness of this re-
ply from the ''Old Chaplain" convulsed
the conference. There was round after
round of applause and much laughter.
so that it was difficult for DR.. Day to
complete his address,.

Is This Church VfsibIeg

The MiddIesex probate court, at East
Cambridge, Mass. has been called
upon to decide whether or not a GER
tain church is visible" 1t seems that
q deceased member of the Independent
Baptist church of Woburn left trust
fund of $1,000 for the benefit of her
fellow members, the interest to be paid
to them so long as the church "main-
tanned it's visibility and the doctrine of
the old school Baptist principles"
The residuary legatees, to whom the
money was to revert if at any time the
church should forfeit the title to it,
claim that the society no longer "main-
tains it's visibility" 1t has only nine
members, only one of whom lives in
Woburn, and it does not support a
preacher On the other hand, the So
ciety claims that, according to it's doc
trines, it is still a church within the
meaning Of the testator.

Serving God Costs Nothing.

Now, my friends, religion never rob-
bed a man of dollar. Other things
being equal. mason will build a bet
ter wall, q cabinet maker will make
a better chair, a plumber will make a
better pipe, a lawyer will make bet
ter plea, merchant will sell better
bill of goods. l say, other things be-
ing equal. Of course when religion
gives a man a new heart, it does not
propose to give him a new head or to
intellectualiZe him or to change
mans condition when his ordinary
state is an overthrow of the philosoph-
zeal theory that a total vacuum is
impossible, but the more letters you
have to write, the more burdens you
have TO carry, the more miles you have
to travel. the more burdens you have to
lift, the more engagements you have TO
meet. the more disputes you have to
settle, the more opportunity you have
of being q Christian. If you have
thousand irons in the fire. you have a
thousand more opportunities of serving
God than if you only had one iron III
the fire. Who so busy as Christ? And
yet who miliionth part as holy? The

Polite HOraRa.

Occasionally an English writer needs
editing. Witness the following, taken
from a prominent London magazine,
the writer being in the midst of de-
scription of the queens garden party:
presently Lord Pembroke and Sir
Ponsonby Fame managed that the vast
concourse of men and women in the
grounds should form two long lanes,
and between them the queen and prin-
cess passed slowly in their carriage,
drawn by two grays bowling right and
left. "-Philadelphia Ledger

The Cigarmak ers' interna tional union

The Cigarmak ers' interna tional union
has just issued it's annual financial re-
port for the yes r. 1899. 1t shows a. re-
| murkable growth in membership and
finances, and it! would be well for eyery
person interested in trade unions to
give the report careful study. It indi-
| Gates that the secret of any unions
success is in high dues, so that men,
| bers may receive the best benefits dur
| ing sickness, out OF work, on strike, or
at death.
| Find Il member of the Cigarmakcrs'
| union who has given the constitution
! of his union any thought, and you will

last.

man is free from cant, hypocrisy, and
selfshness, and a firm believer in Or
ganization, UNFOLDING the maxim "That
many can always help one, where one
cannot always help mhny."'e A union
man is friend Of his employer, and
has his interests and welfare at heart
and strives as a skilled artisan to proi
duce satisfactory days work in re-
turn for Il fair days wage. No unreas-
enable demand is ever made of an en-
ployer. A skilled mechanic has right
to expect and receive sufficient COM

Why Eight Hours:

Under the present long-hour day
many are unemployed.
Labor-saving machinery has lncreas-
cd the producing capacity of workmen
who in justice should be afforded more

The eight-hour day would increase

1t would give greater opportunity Tor

1t would raise the standard OF llVlns'

1t would give men chance to get

1t would promote temperance by re-
