Rev. 6. ID. Brown from Matt. 5.4S,
BE ye therefore perfect even as
your father which is in heaven is
perfect.n This sermon was very
practical, dealing largely with the
ditferent phases of human experience.
The audience was not very large be-
cause OF the rain.

has given much attention to inHestl.
eating the sanitary conditions OF the
s. slaughter houses throughout the
state and reports that in a large ma
jolity of cases he finds them in a
most deplorable state.
The average local slaughter house
is usually maintained at d distance
from all habitation. so that resi-
dents may not be annoyed by intoler-
able smells which emanate from
them. In many cases hog yards are
maintained in connection with the
slaughter house and into these is
dumped all the offal and matter not
utilized in the meat market. and the
buildings themselves hecome Saturat-
ed with decomposed grease and
blood.
No system of inspection has here
tofore been maintained aud MIR.
Small proposes, in the interest OF

The Nose.

The Nose.
The nose is intended for breathing.
the mouth for speaking and eating.
Who has ever zen n horse breathing
otherwise than through his nostrils!
Minute scientific investigation has re-
vealed the fact that the number Of peo-
pie who breathe through their nostrils
are becoming gradually but surely few
er in number. The consequence is that
the nostrils decrease in size, while 1t has
been found that the prevailing nose is
quite an inferior organ to that of our
forefathers. 1t is a we'll known phys
iological fact that unused muscles aud
bones gradually disappear. Fish who
live in the dark, for instance, or the
mole, who resides underground, be-
come blind. Thus If we cease to use
our noses for breathing they will cease
to exist. They will become super1u.

BY far the best.known building in

Byron's poem on its famous prisoner
has given II an undying celebrity,
which otherwise It would not have

So exalted is the place held by the
Castle of Chillon in the minds OF read

thousands visit 1t yearly, and look
upon 1t as a sacred monument to the
