Mount Etna DImInIshInr in Height.

Mount Aetna is diminishing in
height, fact attributed, of course, to
telluric convulsions. The highest peak,
which in 1918 was 9,942 feet above the
sea level, is now reduced to 9,s25 feet.
In 1869 the border of the crater was
9,75S feet high; it is now only 1896
feet On the other hand, the diameter
of the crater itself, which then meas
ured 1900 feet, has now expanded to
1900 feet.

Catarrh Causes Female Diseases.
America is the land of nervous women
The great majority of nervous women are
so because they are suffering from some
form of female disease. BY far the great
est number of female troubles are caused
directly by catarrh These women despair
of recovery. Female trouble is so common,
so prevalent, that they accept it as almost
inevitable. The greatest obstacle in the
way of recovery is that they do not UNDER
stand that it is catarrh which is the source,
of their illness.
In female complaint, ninety-nine cases.
out of one hundred are nothing but catarrh.

William Longfe11ow

Last Sunday afternoon the NOR

e. Longfellow, were consigned to
the tomb. At the Congregational
church, where the funeral sermon
was delivered by the pastor. as
we'll as at the side of the little
grave prepared to receive the tender
little body, the large attendance
testified to the deep sympathy and
genuine sorrow of the community
for the sorely bereaved mother and
surviving brothers and sister.
The ladies of the Eastern Star,
Of which Mrs. Longfellow is a MEM
Der, attended in a body. Musical
numbers we're most appropriately
selected and beautifully and feel
ingly rendered.
Thus within a very brief period
the passing Of the husband and
father, while the sting Of that heavy
blow is yet fresh and unhealed, the
pitiless hand Of death is laid upon
the baby brow of one who was the
particular pride and Government
Of the older children and an object
Of the mothers sleepless vigilance
and tender care.
Such consolation as can be de-
rived from real sympathy and un-
feigned sorrow on the part of the
townspeople for the mother and
surviving children is small indeed
yet they are. surely felt to an un.
common degree, and may they serve
TO somewhat lessen the poignancy
of the stricken family's grief.
