of aids to beauty. Powder boxes no

does cause wrinkles and loss of flesh

a determination to do so, steadily kept
IN mind, will conquer in the end.

That distressing ailment, influenza,
commonly known as the grip, did not,
like Verne's voyag ger, encircIe the globe
in eighty days, but II has accomplished
the Journey just the same, much to the
discomfort OF those whom it has at
tackled. It has been called the Russian
scourge, because it made its first Eu-
ropean appearance in that country,
but properly it is an Asiatic distemper
and to that continent it returned by

n m l It has appeared In Calcutta IN
the last eleven years and it has caused
an appreciable addition to the mortal
lty. Few Europeans or natives il the
large towns have escaped. In Per-
STA the grip came first about fourteen
years ago, in the winter. of 1887 and
1883. when it became epidemic and
raised the mortality by a large per-
centage. Since then there has been a
recurrence OF the disease nearly every
winter. In Persia the technical
name for grip is meshmesha, which
name originally VS. applied to influ-
enza in horses. Still, in that = coun-
try, the mortality from grip among
foreigners has been exceedingly low.
Within the last six months half the
people of Sivas, Turkey, have been
down with the grip. Yet the mortality
was slight. The treatment for this, as
Well as for most other diseases, con-
s1sts Of a Turkish bath. These baths
are public and the danger Of Infection
from them can be understood from the
TACT that an orphanage containing
<l20 inmates ffty-five were taken sick
with influenza within three days after
visit to the Turkish baths. In Val
encla, Spain, the various epidemics OF
the grip have sent the mortality up
ABOUT 90 per cent. Last winter hay
ing been exceptionally severe, influ-
/. enza appeared again in a mild, though
complicated form, affecting the weaker
organs, and this gave rise to classical
ton of death from some organic dis
ease rather than from the grip itself.
IN Gothenburg, Sweden, the grip is an
old enemy, having appeared there for
the first time, SO far as known, in
1882, and being known then as intlu-
enza. The grip" years for this city
were 1900, 1904, 1888, 1887, 1851 and
1864, and did not appear in the city
again until 1889, the first year of the
worldwide epidemic of the disease.
Last winter again there were many
cases Of grip, though of mild type.
Switzerland had a heavy epidemic
of the grip lasting from 1890 to 1894,
and since then the country has been
remarkably free from the disease.

Journey Of the Grip
Around This

In various places in Mexico the grip
appeared last winter, though not il
an usually severe form III the City
OF Mexico it was comp Heated most FREE
quently with pneumonia and il the
Monterey the accomp nying ailment
seemed to be neuralgia, which some
times was diagnosed as the grip even
by the medical 5profe ssion. No cases
OF the grip are reported from the de-
partment OF Iloilo, Ia the Philippin
but in our other new possessions, Por-
to Rico, the grip in a mild form has
been prevalent this spring. In San
Juan the grip appears every 3 winter
about Jan. when the northern trade
winds begin to blow Yet the attack
this spring has been unusually mild.
In Ponce last spring there was rather
sharp epidemic and the months Of
March, April and May. seem to be the
season of the greatest severity. Many
OF the influenza cases and in a remit
tent, probably malarial fever. In
Mayaguez the grip has prevailed in a
mild type since the end of January
this year. It seems in this neighbor-
hood as if the lack of north winds
early in the year accounts for the
mildness of the disease and the alb
@sence Of complication. A mild cpl
-demic of the grip is reported from ST..
{ John, Antigua in the West Indies. In
Kingston, Jamaica, influenza appeared
last year for the first time in anything
like epidemic form. but since last No
vember there has been no case Of the
disease. In San Salvador about Is per
cent of the cases. of illness are due to
the grip, yet the mortality from this
cause for the last year has been
slight. Way down in the south Pa
cific, on Norfolk island. a severe form
of the grip was imported last Sept
ember from Sydney! There were two
lulls, followed by recurrence of the
disease, and at the end of the year

Souls can not be estimated in shek-

does seem to be an unwelcome signifi-

estimated last year, the sum of SO ,300,-
600 was expended in Greater New
York for the current expenses of Pro-
testant churches, while the increase in
membership was only 5,27S. Yet the
fault, continues the Evangelist, Of
these facts is not to be blamed wholly
upon the members of the churches, as
SO many very glibly say, but in large
measure to be attributed to the desper-
ately wicked worldliness of great
masses of our time, who, in spite of
