The Rev. Mangasar NJ. Mangasarian,
" Chicago. who at one time occupied a
Presbyterian pulpit in Philadelphia,
asks the various religious deuomina-
tions TO use their houses of worship
during The week days I'm presenting up
lifting plays. He regards the stage
ON the whole. as degenerate, and uhnks
amateur performances i'm the churches
would entertain the masses and elevate
the drama.
Should the proposition be considered
seriously. think what fine lot Of tall
ent would be inflicted upon patient
public An occasional drama by anna
teurs can be endured like a surgical
operation, bul to designate them enter
tainmenIts suggests "a sense OF humor.
The gentleman is undoubtedly laboring
under rhe dclusion That anyone can
act acceptably, but the art is as much
the result of study and aptitude as
uhat Of any oahcr profession. There are
persons who are their own lawyer or
doctor but they rarely Impress others
With their skill
But The suggestion seems 30 mistake
the fundamental idea of religion, and
one had as well ask another to change
his religion as TO profane the tempe
wherein ho wor~hips An people have
held sacred the place where. by their
rites and ceremonies, they attempt to
hold communion with Deity. and there
is likely to be no material change SO
long as men remain religiously in
lclincd In certain Of our denominations
the church edifce Is not held in that
esteem which SHOULD surround place

tread with revercnt steps the paths Of
the Holy Land but who yet encourage
the attempt 90 turn the house of wOr-
ship which they have solemnly dedil

OF course, true religious service:
may be held in a barn or a theatre. bu
this is regarded as only temporar,
expedient, and as a choice shocks ali

London, Aug. 17.-Pal lament wound
up it's business to-day and was pro-
rogued. Black Rod (Gen. Sir Michael
Biddulph) summoned the Commons at
about 4 o'clock to hear the Kings
speech. On the arrival of the Commons
the speech was read.
1t says:
my Lords and Gentlemen: 1t is
satisfactory to be able to close the first
Parliament of my reign with the as
surance that the cordially of the rela-
tions of Great Britain with the other
Powers remains undiminished."
A reference to China is merely con-
gratulatory, on the attainment of an
agreement in regard to the indemnity,
security for its payment and the pun
ishment of the most guilty offenders.
In regard to South Africa the speech
says:
1.-THE progress of my forces in the
conquest of the two republics by which
my South African colonies have been in
yaded has been steady and continuous.
Owing to the difficulty and extent of the
country to be traversed, the length OF
the military operations has been pro-
tracted."
The speech refers to the signal sue
cess of the Duke of Cornwall and
York's visit to the colonies as "addi-
tional proof of the patriotism, loyalty
and devotion of the people of my do
nninions over the sea-"
The rest of the speech merely records
the Kings satisfaction with the lib
eral provisions made for the naval and
military services, the arrangements
made for the maintenance of the honor
and dignity of the crown, especially
those which affect the state and COM
fort of my royal consort," and the au-
thorization to change the royal title. 1t
concludes:

remedy he relies upon in such cases is
Peruna, which every woman should
have, who has any affection of this
kind.
In view of the great multitude of
women suffering from some kind of
female disease, and yet unable to find
any cure, DIR. Hartman, the renowned
gynaecologist, has announced his will
ingness to direct the treatment of as
many cases as may make application
TO MIN during the summer months
without charge.
The treatment will be conducted by
correspondence. The doctor will pre-
scribe all medicines, applications, hy-
gienic and dietary regulations neces-
sary to complete cure. The medicines
prescribed can be obtained at all drug
stores. This offer will prevail during
the summer months. Any woman can
become regular patient by sending a
written statement of her age, condition
of life, history and symptoms of her
arrangements.
All cases of female diseases, includ-
ing menstrual Irregularities, displace-
ments, alterations, inhammations, dis
