British Physician Attacks Sanitary

New YORK Sun Special Service. -
London, July 30.-At the opening Of the
annual conference Of the British Medical
association. DIR. Griffths, the president,
declared that Great Britain loses annual
ly $4,000 lives that could be saved by
even moderate improvements in the sani-
tary law and in it's administration.
The loss was largely of children under
/ year of age the mortality among them
having increased in the past thirty-six
years. This and the diminished birth rate
were too ugly facts that were discredita-
BILE to the country and modern civilization.

Worse than CrippleQ
Loss of Limbs Not the Worst Calam-

Loss of Limbs Not the Worst Calam-
ity to Workers.
The active, busy man or woman who
loses limb in some accident is entitled
to great pity. There must be great dis
comfort, possibly a total disability.
But how about the dyspeptic who suf-
fers intolerablyl in mind and body and
becomes hopeless, lnisanthropical, gloomy
seeing no beauty in nature and no joy in
life? Surely this is suffering of two
fold nature and the general impairment
of the faculties is worse than partial dis
ability from loss Of limb.
Those who suffer from dyspepsia Or
other stomach troubles should try Chase's
Dyspepsia Cure.
1t will give them a renewed lease Of
life, comfort, strength, health and vitality,
mental vigor, the faculty of enjoying the
luxuries Of Natures bounty and happiness
in associating with their fellowmen.
This seems a great dealito promise for
any remedy. but the words are carefully
expressed And, even more, the first
dose will nearly always give relief in the
most obstinate case. Indigestion, sour
stomach, nausea, heartburn, lassftude,
discomfort after eating and sick head
aches will invariably yield to this great
specific. Mr.. Philip e. Wardell IS Fifth
St., New Bedford, Mass, relates his first
as follows:
'I prepared to give the remedy good
trial by telling my wife to buy some sau-
sages for supper and + a tie three and then
took, a dose of your medicine and went
to bed and slept well. If I had done that
without your remedy I would have been
sick all night

Radcliffe, who spoke on ''The Imperial
Presbyterian" He declared that imperial
ism is In the air, and that it is control
ling the thought and legislation Of the ma
ticn. The country is marching along on
certain and sure course of nature and the
signs indicate many great and good things
for us. The speaker said that an analogy
exists between the underlying principles of
the republic and Presbyterianism. In dis
cussing Imperialism DR.. Radcliffe said that
one of its elements is self consciousness.
THE American has become conscious of
himself" he declared THE time is past
when an American in Europe. goes around

London. man is strong among his fell

who believes that he was put here for a
definite purpose.
"Presbyterianism has a history second

Ing and we should be proud of the sim
piicity and power of its doctrines and faith.
We are doing work in our own way
and we should never attempt to ape the
forms or ceremonies Of other denomina-

The principal characteristics of the Pres

Letters From the Dead.

From the Brooklyn Eagle.
There is a young widow in Brooklyn who
continues to receive letters from her hus-
band, although he has been dead these
many months. He was a soldier, serving
in the Philippines. On the occasion of the
Moro troubles in Mindanao last spring he
was sent to that island, where, after a few
weeks. he was slain in engagement. The
War Department, having received informa-
ton by cable, soon notified the widow. but
the Post Office Department, with its few
facilities for handling mail in those far-off
islands, had not yet delivered any Of the
many letters he had sent during his Life
there Since learning of his death she has
received many of these letters. full of low
erly hope and tender sentiments, and they
are still coming. Sometimes she keeps
them unopened for. days before she can
summon courage 20 face her loved one in
the full vigor Of his glad young life; for
every message that thus brings him back
to her renews the neffable agony OF her
first great loss. Yet, on the other hand
she cannot, of course, suffer a word of his
to go unread. Poor little womani Hers is
an inexpressibly sad lot.

a foot and the erection OF the building was
begun. The edifice was constructed of brick
at a cost of $4,000, and William Thompson
was the builder. That his work was we'll
performed is evidenced by the substantial
appearance of the structure today. The
cornerstone was laid in June. 1858. and the
basement was used by the congregation
for place of worship until the auditorium
was finished. The completed building was
dedicated in February, 1855. and only a
small debt was left on the church after its
completion 1t is stated that Franklin
Pierce, who was President of the United
States at that time, was present at the
dedicatory services and contributed a gold
coin or generous size toward the expenses
of the new church. Since the dedication of
this building the congregation has wor-
SHIPPED there continuously, and the struc-
ture is much the same in appearance as
when it was first built save for slight
changes, made when the Pennsylvania rail-
road lines entered the city.
OF the thirty-two charter members twelve
were transferred to other churches by let
tiers and nineteen died while members of
the congregation. The remaining charter
member is Mrs. Helen B. Henderson, who
still retains her affiliations with the Sixth
Church, and is thought to be the only sur
viving member of-the original congrega-
ton.
The church has had five pastors during
its fifty years of existence. DR.. Noble. the
