Irlumphs Of Modern surgery.

Wonderful things are done for the
human body by surgery. Organs are
taken out and scraped and polished
and put back, or they may be removed
entirely. bones are splieed; pipes take
the place OF diseased sections OF
veins; ~anticeptic dressings are ap.
piled 70 wounds, bruises, burns and
like injuries before inflammation
sets In, which causes them to heal
without maturation and In one.third
the time required by the old treat
ment. Chamberlain's Pain Balm acts
on this same principle, It Is an anti
certic and when applied to such In
%juries, causes them to heal very
quickly. 1t also alIays the pain and
soreness. Keep a bottle Of Pain
Balm In your home and 1t will save
you time and money, not to mention
the Inconvenience and suffering
which such injuries entail. For sale
BY all druggists.

The Methodist Protestant Conference
in session at Washington, D. c., last
Saturday adopted way for the union
between itself and the Primitive Meth
odists, United Brethren, the Congre-
gational churches and the Methodist
church. Now the matter goes back for
ratification to the various conferences
that compose the general conference.
If two thirds of these favor union, and
the other denomination approve the
plan, the union will take place.
The Presbyterian General Assembly
of the United States, now in session at
Buffalo, New York, last Saturday de-
cided upon union with the Cumberland
Presbyterian church by an almost
unanimous vote. Now the question
goes back to the presbyteries for ratiii-
cation, where the two-thirds vote also
prevails, and if approved 1905 will see
the Presbyterian churches united again.
At conference Of the Uuited Presby-
te rian church at Greenville, Pa, it was
also decided to unite with the Reformed
Presbyterian church.

larger. The enlisted men of the United
States are allowed to leave their money
in the hands of paymasters, taking a
certificate for it, and the government
pays the men interest at the rate of 4
per cent a year. Many soldiers largely
increase their earnings by leaving their
money on deposit as long as possible,
and it is really a very good savings
bank for them. The year before the
Spanish war the amount deposited was
less than one third of that deposited in
1903. The enlisted strength OF the
army has been increased since then, land
is now double what it was before the
Spanish war, but the amount left on de-
posit is three times as great as it was
when the army was smaller. Possibly
service in the orient and the establish
ment of large posts have been condu-
Give to saving on the part of the troops.
At all events, officers Of the war depart
ment look upon the increase as being
an indication of thriftiness upon the
part of the American soldier. On sew
eral occasions attempts have been made
in congress to allow officers Of the ar
my the same privilege of leaving their
money on deposit, but every time such
q bill has been defeated.
