Necessity for Discipline.

Apropos of the modern methods of
training children, a writer in the
Lady's Pictorial remarks that, al
though she believes thoroughly in the
influence of love and patience, the
modern child is not brilliant exam
pie of the new method. 1t is too often
pert. ill-mannered. blase, self-willed,
and no respecter of persons. 1t is non
sense to maintain that young, un.
disciplined, mentally and physically
uniformed creature can be treated like
a grown-up. Everything young, wheth-
err it be a child puppy, colt or a
tree, wants discipline and discipline
is not to be maintained by theories. .

thirty-third degree Mason, and on this
particular occasion his political fol

with a massive gold watch.

rheumatism in Utah.

Frisco, Utah, May 2nd.-There is a
great deal of Rheumatism in this and
neighboring states, and this painful
disease has crippled many a strong
man and woman among an otherwise
healthy people
Recently, however, there has been
introduced into Utah a remedy for
Rheumatism which bids fair to stamp
out this awfully painful complaint.
The name of this new remedy is
Dodd's Kidney Pills, and it has al
ready wrought some wonderful cures.
Right here in Frisco there is a case
of Mr.. Grace who had Rheumatism
so bad in his feet that he could hardly
walk. He tried many remedies in
vain, but Dodd's Kidney Pills cured
him.
His wife says: 1--WE both had Kid
ney Trouble, and my husband had the
Rheumatism so bad that he could
hardly walk We used Dodd's Kid
ney Pills with much benefit. We have
tried many remedies, but none have
done us so much good as Dodd's Kid
ney Pills"
Similar reports come from all over
the state, and it would seem as if
Rheumatism had at last been con-
uuered

HOW THE CHINESE CELEBRATE.
Weird Ceremonies at Opening of Tenn
pie in Australia.

Pile in Australia.
A glimpse of the new religion which
is to be introduced into South Africa
is afforded in report of the opening
recently of a new Chinese temple at
Sydney, Australia. The Chinese popu-
lation reveled in the picturesque COM
bats of dragons and masked monsters,
and Toasted on roast pig. The Chinese
mixed their prayers and their propitia-
tions with endless rejoicings. A re-
spected Chinese resident in Sydney
performed the opening ceremony, and
then a number of Chinese went into
the temple and placed there rice cakes
and meats, praying to the particular
joss before whom they lnelt. In defer
ence to the residents only few crack
ers were exploded in the early hours,
but at dawn there was abundant proof
that the josses were being propitiated.
The tom-tom, the Chinese bugles, and
the rattles caused a great din. The
dragon dances in the temple grounds
were wild and weird. Grotesque heads
swayed, masked men advanced men
acingly towards each other, music
changed, banners cleaned, incense
fioated to the nostrils of each joss,
yellow-skinned and half-caste devotees
crept in to make obeisance, and for
once the stolid countenance of the
Chinaman showed signs of exultatioh.

That the minute traces of metallic

not accidental. but essential to the

is asserted by Herrera, a French BIZ

that Zoology and botany are but

the food is deprived OF its mineral

pend on the presence of certain min.

role of pepsin in digestion seems to
depend on the presence of iron. In
short, the organic substances on
which life depends are, he says. pre-.
pared in inorganic workshops with

opinion that whitening of the fur gen

cure a greater bond, nor will he be
taken from the la Toilette ticket.
That his accounts were badly mixed

dollars makes no difference now. The
Treasurer's two clerks, Richter and
Duke, were necessarily sacrificed, in
an endeavor TO lay the blame upon
them, but the thinking public will not
be satisfied with this action, even
though the shortage in the accounts
was made good. The Free Press was
the one to first condemn Mr.. KEN of
