motherhood without health, and without
health for the mother there can be no

1t is of vital importance for women to

control. The thousands of women who
have used DIR. Pierce's Favorite Pre-

the baby's advent practically painless,

President Roosevelt
Speaks to Presbyterians.

New York, May 20.-Caruegie hall
with an audience eager TO hear the ad-
dress of President Roosevelt in the in
terests of Presbyterian home missions
the occasion marking the close of the
centennial celebration. Many of the
audience remembered that Presidents
Cleveland and Harrison had made ad-
dresses from the same platform on the
same subject.
In Introducing President Roosevelt,
DIR. Dodge said that no man knew bet
ter than the President the Importance
10 the nation of the good work of the
home missions.
When President Roosevelt stepped
to the front of the platfoi and began
'tMr. Chairman" he was interrupted by
the hashlight of photographer.
As the smoke blew across the stage
he laughed and said:
There goes the mystery now" re-
fering to the mystery of the creed. The
President said in part:
1T is pleasure on the behalf of he
people of the United States, TO bid you
welcome on this bundrsdth anniversary
of the beginning of organized home
missionary work by the Presbyterian
church In one sense, of course, all
fervent and earnest church work is a
part of home missionary work. Every
earnest and Jealous believer; every man
or woman who is q doer of the word
and not a hearer only, is a lifelong
missionary in his or her field of labor

the street, hauled to his home, and that
Councilman Irwin, made foundation
for building out of stone taken up
from sidewalks and crossings. 1t is
also charged that Contractor Snyder
hauled city stone to his stone yard.
The Clerks books do not show that
these stone were ever paid for, and the
Board of Revision should see that the
City is protected in such matters.
In closing this report we will say
that if the Board OF Revision had done
its duty, this trouble and loss to the
City could not have occurred, and we
urge that future boards meet at least
once month and that vigilance be ex-
ercised in all of the departments of our
city affairs.
In making this investigation and
submitting this report, we have ex-
hausted our authority and We recon-
mend that the Board Of Revision OF
City Council take up the Irregularities
sighted and that the responsibility be
fixed, and losses recovered to the city.
We have made out, with consider.
able difficulty, the annual itemized
report required to be filed by the CLERK
on the third Monday in March, and
transmit the same for publication, al
required by law.
| We also submit a recapitulation O
the amounts drawn by the various of
ficers and employees from the different
funds.
i We also include reports from tn,
Gas, Electric Light and Water Works
Trustees. The date OF closing our re
ports differ from those Of the Trus
tees, but we have found that tn,
books balance on March 12, 1902.

Last October the Council passed resolu
tions condemninG the assassination Of Pres
ident Mckinley. and the Index CHARGED and
received $2.o0 for publishing the same.
In December a number of citizens
on east Brown Street, notified the
Council that sidewalk ought to be
put down in front of a vacant lot.
This was also published in the Index and
$500 paid therefor. Neither OF these
publications should have been paid for.
The Committee has placed all the
honda found, in the hands OF the City
Treasurer, who has marked them ire

that the Board OF Revision bring the
bond book up to date, and mark all

We believe that the taxpayer is pay
ing too large a proportion on street
Improvements for Engineer and help
ers. 1t seems that when the Engineer
has established the grade and driven
the stakes for street improvement he
has no further duties except to inspect
the work in progress until it comes to
measuring the grade, and later
measuring the work when completed,
and that if the contractors want to call
him back to set new stakes or for
other purposes in which they alone
are interested, they should pay his
bills, and not the taxpayer.
We have had it called to our atten-
ton that Councilman Blair had some
five or six sidewalk stone, taken up of

Gov. Stone favors Immersion.

We make the following extract from
Tuesdays Pittsbnrg Gszette's account
of the great association now in that
city
Gov. Stone addressed the German
Bsptists in the auditorium this after
noon The building, which seats {, 600
persons, was filed entirely and tbous-
ands on the outside pressed around the
sides to listen. The Governor referred
to the fact that many of the German
Baptists at the convention, who have
come from all parts of the country,
were originally Pennsylvanians, and be
extended to them a welcome home.
Speaking of immersion, which is the
custom at the baptismsl services of the
German Baptist church, the Governor
said he was heartily in favor OF INNER
sion. and that it would not hurt some
people to be dipped ten times instead
of three times.
