The plot Is laid in a rural district in Indiana, af- fording opportunity for local color that is wanting Dudley Sherrod, a country boy with a talant for dra wing, is married to Justine Van, a rustic beauty of Clay county. A chance meting with Miss Gel este Wood. a young society woman of Chicago, while on a sketehing expedition

In the presence of Celeste he is powerless to tell her the truth and when he visits Jus tine she is adorable. Suicide solves the problem for Sherrod.
 There are several strong scenes in the story notably where Eugene Crawley fights Dudley Sherrod in the presence of Justine and spares his throttled victim at her pleading The return of Sherrod in the night to murder Justine is lntens- ely dramatic. While Sherrod is leading his double life in Chicago as the husband of a wealthy woman and deceiving Jus tine, Crawley. seorned and despised by the girl and her husband, slaves for her on her little farm, hushes the voice of islander, and gives his all for her happiness.

Boston, October 10-In the recently is-
 sued physiological Aspects of the Liquor
 Problem" the latest of the published re- ports of the various subcommittee of
 the Committee of Fifty, organized in 1893 for a thorough examination of the differ
 ent aspects of this vital question, there is one chapter in particular that will un- questonably give rise 10 considerable pop uar discussion. This chapter is the re- port of pr. H. P. Bowditch of the Har- yard Medical school in this city and Prof. C. F. Hodge of Worcester on the recent American public school instruction on the physiological action of alcohol The re- port frankly takes the position that much of the so-called scientific temperance in- struction' in the public schools is both unscientific and undesirable, and endeav- ors to support it's contention by an analy- sis of the text books prepared on this subject in accordance with the laws of various states in the Union, and by an analysis of the testimony of a considera- ble number both of teachers and physi- ologists.
 The sources of information from which this conclusion has been reached are Tour. The standard text books now in use in colleges, universities and medical schools; personal letters from prominent physiol- ogsts both in America and Europe in which they state their individual opinions; the text book of physiology now in use in the public schools; and. finally the testi- mony of a large number of public school teachers, questioned as to the value and fitness of the books and the results of the system. This system, it is maintained in the report is not true physiological study of alcohol, but rather the total ab- stinence reform; and it is primarily the total abstinence movement with all the inherent determination of any reform to carry it's point, its originators were led. so it stated. into an unscientifc as well as uneducational method of instruction. In other words the claim is put forth that Instead of scientific truth the public school student is being provided with a kind of half knowledge that later experience is almost certain to show him is both in- accurate and biased, thus preparing the way for a reaction that will eventually often defeat the very ends aimed at by the present system of education
 The essential point made against the text book new it. general use throughout the United States to teach the physiology of alcohol is illustrated by a parallel be- tween the teachings of these text books about twenty-five in number, and the standard works used in the colleges, uni versailles and medical schools. In these parallels, the inaccuracy of the "ap-

 and Surgeons.
 In all parts of the country men and women, doctors and surgeons clergymen and educators, are wondering at the re- markable cures made by Professor Thomas F. Adkin, discoverer of the Ad- kin Nitaopathic treatment.
 Prof. Adkin heals not by drugs, nor by Christian Science, nor by Osteopathy, nor by Hypnotism, but by a subtle psy- chic force of nature in combination with certain vital magnetic remedies which contain the very clements of life and health.
 A reporter recently talked with Prof. Ad1in, and was asked to invite all read CTS of this paper who are sick, or who are worried by the ills of those dear to them to write to him for assistance. Some people have declared,' said Prof. Adkin, that my powers are superhuman, they call me a man of mysterious power. This is not so; l cure because 1 under stand nature, because l use the subtle force of nature to build up the system and restore health But at the same time l believe that it would not have been given to me to make the discoveries have made or the ability to develop thep, if it had not been intended that l should use them for the general good. l there fore feel that it is my duty to give the peHeHl ol the science practice lO dll who are suffering. l want you to tell your readers that they can write to me in the strictest confidence if they are troubled with any kind of disease. and I will thoroughly diagnose their cases and prescribe simple home treatment which l positively guarantee to effect d com plete cure, absolutely free of charge. I care not how serious their cases, nor how hopeless they may seem. l want them to write to me and let me make them we'll l feel that this is my life work"
 So great is the sensation wrought in the medical world by the wonderful cures performed by Prof AdlSin, that several professional gentlemen were asked to in vestigate the cures. Among these gen. tlemen were Dr. L. B. Hawley and NIT. l.. G. Doane. both famous physicians and surgeons. After a thorough and painstak- ing investigation, these eminent physi-
