APPEAL MADE TO CATHOLICS.


Jacksonville, Fla, May 1O.-Right
Rev. John Moore, bishop Of st. Au-
gustine, and Very Rev. William ].
Kenney, vicar general Of this diocese,
have issued an appeal to the Roman
Catholic people of the United States
and Canada, calling upon them to aid
the Catholics of this place. The ap-
peal recites the destruction of the
church, paroehial residence, orphan
age and convent, represents a total
loss of about $125,OOQ, and states that
in view of the utter impoverishment
and restitution of the Catholics here
unless they receive help from the out
side Catholic world it will be impos-
sible to continue the work of Catholic
progress in this community.
The work of clearing away the
debris progresses slowly owing to
the intense heat Of the brick work in
the fallen foundations, many of. the
buildings still smodering.

COLDS

The quickest relief, for a
cold, is by SCOTS emulsion Of
cod-liver oil.
We all have colds, you can
try it and see. You will find
the edge taken off i'll a night;
and, in three or four days,
you'll be wondering whether
that cold amounted to any
thing anyhow.
That's relief. Ifyou tackle
It quick, the relief is quick and
complete, if you wait till the
cold is in full possession Of
head and lung, why, Of course,
the relief is quick if it comes in
a week.
A little emulsion won't clear
and restore your whole breath
ing-machine in minute; don't
be looking for miracles.
Wen send you little to try, you like.

braces the states of Oregon, Washing

called fireland, for there frost and
fire are strangely mingled. The
lofty mountains, towering skvward.

fire and steam and molten rock. A.
times the eruption. bursting forth

the mountain sides, and great floods
rush down into the valleys. On tae
cooled surface of the lava flow ice
