Mrs. Annie Adams, had been enthroned.
When Brown. resolutely refusing to

PRACTICE AND THEORY.

A celebrated anatomist states that
the waists of English girls are grow
ing smaller and those of American
girls larger.
Scientists are theorists in nine cases
out of ten. Their word remains un-
disputed for want of evidence.
This, however, is too important a
statement to overlook. What we
want are facts.
We are at present making care
full examination to ascertain the truth.
We are doing the thing personally 60
be sure.
Several hundred New York girls

blondes were picked out. Eacn>-ene
was examined separately. The arm
was exclusively used-except in some
cases where both arms were neces-
sary.
This is a preliminary report. We
have been so busy that up to date
we have not had time to get the exact
figures.
Speaking generally, however, we
can say that the waist of the average

BOY Was SOMEWHAT MIXED.
Had Wrong Idea of the Sound to Be
Removed.

Deacon Allen Sheldon, who recently
passed away, was universally respect
ed by all who knew him, and his
stories were listened to with much de.
light, says writer in the Boston
Herald. He used to tell the following
with great deal of interest:
When very small boy he asked his
father to let him go with him to the
town meeting. He went, with the
promise that when he returned he
would tell the folks what happened.
In those days the church was sup.
ported by tax on every property
holder. Whatever of interest came up
for the church had to be voted on at
the town meeting.
The pastor being feeble and his
voice not strong, an article in the
town warrant called for the removal
of the sounding board from over the
pastors head, since it acted as an ex-
tinguisher, and not as originally
planned. When Allen returned he
told his mother about the sounding
board, and said:
'Mr. Flagg got up and said, in his
squeaky voice: Mr.. Moderator, l
make a motion that we remove the
sound from under the board"

ThorouuhIy Reliable,

If ever there was a reliable and safe
remedy it is that old and famous por-
GUS plaster-Allcock's. 1t has been in
use for sixty years, and is as popular
to-day as ever, and we doubt if there
is a civilized community on the face
of the globe where this wonderful pain
reliever cannot be found. In the selec-
ton of the ingredients and in their
manufacture the greatest care is taken
to keep each plaster up to the highest
standard of excellence, and SO pure
and simple are the ingredients that
even a child can use them.
Allcock's are the original and gen.
uine porous plasters and are sold by
Druggists all over the world.
