CURIOUS CUCkOOS.

The cuckoo is generally known only
as bird with a very 1lonotonouS note ::
a continuous cry of cuckoo, cuckoo I"
over and over again. Among naturalists,
however, the cuckoo is known as a bird
that never builds a nest for itself, but
takes advantage of one already built bv
some more industrious bird.
There is good deal of the cuckoo
about these advertisers who, instead of
making a success of their own, seek to
profit by the success which some one
else has made with much effort and
labor. 1t is SO with those limitations of
DIR. P1erce's methods, by which free
medical advice is offered, although those
who make the offer are without qualified
medical ability or experience. And the
cry raised i'll some cases of "woman,
woman, woman write to woman - makes
the resemblance to the cuckoo even
stronger.
There is as far as known 10 qualified
woman physician connected with any
proprietary medicine establishment, and
none therefore competent to give medi-
cal advice. 1t is certain that there is no
one, man or woman, who can offer free
medical advice backed by such knowl

DR. MERRIMAN AT BAYFIELD,.
Strong Sermon Preached to Yale Men
 Yesterday Morning

Rev. Dr. Daniel Merriman of Worces- ter, Mass, occupied the pulpit in Battell chapel yesterday morning and preached a strong sermon to the Yale men. The visitors pews in the chapel were all oc- cupied and in the rear gallery there was an unusually large number of outsiders. The subject of Rev Dr. Merrimans ser mon was "Be Not Ashamed" and the text was taken from Corinthians i, 7-S: "So that ye came behind in no gift; waiting for the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, who shall also confirm you unto the end, that ye may be blameless in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ"
 Dr. Merriman spoke of how a great many men in all countries and of all classes, rich and poor were ashamed to acknowledge God in public, yet were thoroughly good Christians. Men" he said lat their work seem to be ashamed to converse about the Lord if the subject was brought up and even in church you will find many who wont be willing to say their prayers so afraid are they to say the word "God''
 pr. Merriman impressed it upon the minds of the students that they should never be ashamed to make reference to God no matter at what time or place.
