There is NJ church in London more
grimly affecting or more grewsomely
picturesque than St Giles, Cripple
gate. It's lantern Is strangely gaUmt and
blackcned. its towers stark and sol
emn. The approaches are all strag-
Cling and curious. W ? fancy ourselves
in Il bit of some old foreign city. The
curious skulls and hourglass over the
entrance to the churchyard are vigOr-
ously done. 1t escaped the great fire
and is an interesting church altogether
and picturesque. Here we find Millions
tomb Foxes (Of the Book of Mar
tyrs') and that of Il daughter of
Shakespeare Lucy. And, as if this
were not sufficient to reward ones Gu
riosity, they will show us the registry
Of the marriage Of Oliver Cromwell to
Elizabeth Boucher. In the churchyard
large fragment Of the old city wall
is TO be seen.-I ondon Graphic.

The Mileage Book Problem.

The legality of the $40 mileage
forfeit is to be tested in Pennsyl-
vania. Secretary Of In tie rn'a
Affairs Brown has instructed the
attorney general to begin suit
against the Pennsylvania Rail-
road Company to stop the collec-
ton of the refund on mileage
books. Each purchaser of a $40
mileage book on the Pennsylvania
railroad lines is at present COM
PEELED to leave a deposit of $40,
which, the company claims, is for
the purpose Of preventing the
illegitimate use Of the book.
Secretary Browns action is the
result Of complaint filed by
organizations of travelling sales
men and business men of Phila-
delphia and Pittsburg on January
10th. Secretary Brown confirms
as well taken the contention of
the travelling and business men
that in demanding a $40 cash
deposit the Pennsylvania Rail
road Company is exercising part
Of the privileges of a banking in
stitution of the state, which spe-
officially prohibits a corporation
from engaging in any business not
set forth in its charter.

Mr.. BARLOW TO
BUILD SHORT LINE
6S-hile Wabash Connection to Cost
Twenty Hillion Dollars.

1t has been learned from official
sources that the Wabash railroad
will construct the Uniontown and
Wheeling 6hcrt Line, that J. Q.
Barlow, chief engineer of the Yves
tern Maryland railroad has been
given charge Of the engineering
work, and that negotiations have
been opened by Gould representa-
tives for the purchase of the rights
Of way and survey. 1t is stated
that the price agreed upon is ten
million dollars. The railroad will
be 68 miles long and the property
includes one hundred thousand
acres Of coal land, mainly in Greene
county, Pa. The route is about
forty miles shorter than any other
railroad between the Uniontown
coal fields in the Wheeling dist
riot, the grades will be easier, the
curves less, and the cost of opera
tion smaller. 1t is estimated that
it will cost about $4,000 900 to
construct the road. The new road
embraces the charter and rights Of
way of four other roads, the Leck-
rome and Little Whiteley the Mid
land, the Waynesburg and Monon-
gahela, and the Ohio and Marshall
county railroads. The eastern
terminus will be Uniontown, Pa
1t was stated yesterday that the
Wabash will not purchase the Goa
lands of the company.

and rain upon all, without refer
ence to the moral character of per-
sonal attitude ofeach toward Him
self. Perfection is the
goal which Jesus here uhcovers. A
completely rounded Wilderness of
character. All Christian-not
Christian'in one part and pagan in
another. The full stature-not a
dwarf edition.
The Teachers Lantern.
Here prominently the social
teachings of Jesus are found. Mans
duty to self andneighbor; his duty
to organized society; his attitude
toward current evils, especially
when they attack himself. 1t is a
veritable handbook of conduct for
the Christian citizen.
America vies with the Orient in
cursing. In public conveyance, on
the sidewalk, in shop and mart,
protane and vulgar oaths garnish
the common speech. 1t is the
most useless habit. 1t has subtle
power to destroy the fine sense of
reverence. The Master needs again
to cry Halt" and to command
that our speech be Yea, yea, ="
and Nay, nay" for whatever is
over and above that is of the devil.
Truth issuing from the
inward part needs no oath to con-
firm it. 1t bears its own evidences
and credentials. * * The
disciples or Jesus under the law of
the land had perfect right to re-
taliation for offences against them
selves, but He showed them a bet
ter way. They were to waive their
right-and even go to the length |
of non-resistance. Litigation is to
be avoided. If one happens to be
impressed for courier service upon
the highway he is to go twice the
required distance. In
Jesus day the opinion maintained |
that suffering was the sign Of sin
in the sufferer. So sympathy was |
chilled. The unfortunate one was |
getting what he deserved. Master
will have none Of it and commands |
His followers to share what they
have with all who ask aims of !
them. * * With the com
mand to love enemies and to do
good to prosecutors the ethical
teaching of Jesus reaches its high
est note. = Not some of |
these injunctions are to be obeyed |
namely, those which seem most
practicable and least repugnant.
All are to be observed-but that
not by rote or in the spirit of le
gality. Righteousness in the heart
is to be allowed to express itself in
conduct as opportunity presents
itself.

The Tongue and the Temper.

Macaulay says of Pitt that he
could pour forth a long succession
of stately periods without premed-
itation and in a voice of silvery
Clearness. Perhaps ne reached tbe
zenith of his fame in his speech in
parliament on the abolition of the
slave trade. Where is that speech?
A memory only. An American
analogue is found in Webster. He
stood before an entranced congress
as he made his celebrated Reply
to Hayne," but that speech is on
ly memory also, although just
two generations have passed since
its delivery. Two mileuiums ago
the Galilean awaited Himself of
one ofNature's temples, and when
the unsynagogued congregation
gathered he opened His mouth and
taught them. One does not need
to search The musty archives Of
parliament OF congress to find that
address. 1t is the best and the
most widely known composition in
human literature. Millions have
it in memory-millions live by it.
= 1t has been said that
Jesus only borrowed the aphorisms
Of the rabbi. Talmudic savings
are but in parallel columns with
those of Jesus-and thus His orig
inality discounted. II such rabbi
meal maXims are put back into
their context, however, they are
almost always found on lower
plane, and often moving in a direc-
ton opposite to the teaching of.
Jesus. * The superior ethi
cal quality of the Masters instruc-
tons is no where more evident than
when he comes to deal with the
current sins of the tongue. The
old traditional Interpretation en-
couraged the making of oaths.
Jesus took fiat issue with the Gus
tom He commanded the omission
.ot oaths, and the use of plainspeech,
" Again He rescinded the
law of reclamation, taught and ex-
emplified the brand-new principle |
of non-resistance. He
enjoins practical benevolence
which will give to the asker and |
not turn from the borrower.
q He calls a halt to the hatred |
of enemies, always before con-
sidered legitimate and even
praiseworthy, He commands the |
opposite, namely, the love Of en-
emies, To love those who love us
has no moral quality. The most
despised man in Palestine, the
publican, could easily do that.
But to love an enemy-that is d.
vine. Sons of God will act like
their Father, who sends sunshine

A Miracu Gus Cure.

The following statement by H. NJ
Adams and wife, Henrietta, Pa, will
interest parents and others. "A mirac-
ulous cure has taken place in our
home. Our child had eczema five years
and was pronounced incurable, when
we read about Electric Bitters, and
concluded to try it. Before the second
bottle was all taken We noticed a
change for the better and after taking
seven bottles he was completely cured"

above outlined would accomplish drain
age of the swamp by turning the
course of the waters flowing down CRU
soc and Butler creeks nj the opposite
direction. Whereas they now flow to
the south into Seneca river, a moder-
ately deep cut through the divide be-
tween the headwaters of Butler and
Nolcott creeks would carry the water
of these creeks and that of the swamps
northward with a sudden
drop in a distanc of five miles from
$50 feet to 80 feet. The maximum
cutting through the divide would prob
ably not exceed 40 feet, and it is pos
sible that a fall of at least so feet
might be developed for the creation of
water power.

1t was all over my body, limbs,

years old and an old soldier, and have
been examined by the Government
Board over fifteen times, and they said
there was no cure for me. l have
taken all kinds of medicine and have
spent large sums of money for doctors,
without avail. A short time ago I
decided to try the Cuticura Remedies,
and after using two cakes of Cuticura
Soap, two boxes of Cuticura Ointment,

YOU GAIN-AND LOSES POUNDS

"A dinner like this increases ones
weight two and one-half pounds" said
a psychologist, as ne finished his tur-
key and helped himself to mince pie
AN average dinner increases the
weight two pounds two ounces. Did
you ever consider how the weight
fluctuates night and day?
I'VE lose in bed at night two pounds
six ounces Between breakfast and
lunch we lose fourteen ounces. Be-
tween lunch and dinner We lose ten
ounces more. Total loss, four pounds,
fourteen ounces. That goes on every
day in our lives.
"At breakfast we gain one pound;
at dinner, as l said before, two pounds,
two ounces. Total gain, four pounds,
fourteen ounces.
THUS, day by day, gaining nearly
five pounds and losing nearly five
pounds, our weight remains uniform.
If we ate but a half or a third what
we do, it is logical to suppose that our
organs, digestive and so on, would have
but half as much work to do, and that
our brains in consequence would he
