HIS LECTURE ON CHRISTIAN
 SCIENCE.
CCommunicated.)

The Second Church of Christ, Scient- ist, will occupy the Hyperion theater next Sunday, January 20, at 3:3O p. m. for free lecture on Christian Science, by the Rev. William P. Mckenzie, a member of the board of lectureship of the mother church in Boston.
 This board is maintained for the purpose of giving the public opportu- mites to learn just what the denomina- ton claims and teaches, and to correct false impressions in regard to the be- liefs and practice.
 It is claimed by Christian Scientists that healing the sick is duty They regard the command of Jesus "heal the sick and "preach the gospel" as equally important. In this they follow the examples of the early Christians, who according to the history of the primitive church continued for some 200 years to heal the sick.
 However Scientists may differ in opinion from other religious denomi- nations, no one attending these lec- lures need fear offensive criticism, whatever may be his or her belief; plain and conservative statement of their own position is all that they att tempt.
 These lectures are usually attended by large and interested audiences, and tend to promote religious discussion and Bible reading.

THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL.
Few People Know How Useful It Is in
 Preserving Health and Beauty.
Costs Nothing to Try.

Nearly everybody knows that char coal is the safest and most efficient disinfectant and purifier in nature, but few realize it's value when taken into the human system for the same cleansing purpose.
 Charcoal is a remedy that the moro you take of it the better; 1t is not drug at all, but simply absorbs the gases and impurities always present in the stomach and intestines and car- ries them out of the system.
 Charcoal sweetens the breath after smoking, drinking or after eating on- ions and other odorous vegetables
 Charcoal effectually clears and f1n- proves the complexion, it whitens the teeth and further acts as a natural and eminently safe cathartic.
 It absorbs the injurious gases which collect in the stomach and bowels: It disinfects the mouth and throat from the poison of catarrh,
 All druggists sell charcoal in one form or another, but probably the best charcoal and the most for the money is in Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges; they are composed of the finest pow dered Willow charcoal, and other

 harmless antiseptics in tablet form or rather in the form of large, pleasant tasting lozenges, the charcoal being mixed with honey.
 The daily use of these lozenges will soon tell in much improved condition of the general health, better complex ion. sweeter breath and purer blood, and the beauty of it is that no 1ossi- ble harm can result from their contin- ued use, but, on the contrary, great benefit.
 A Boston physician, in speaking of the benefits of charcoal, says: T ad- wise Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges to all patients suffering from gas in stomach and bowels, and to clear the complex ion and purify the breath, mouth and throat: I also believe the liver is greatly benefited by the daily use bf them; they cost but twenty-five cents a box at drug stores, and although in some sense a patent preparation, yet believe I get more and better charcoal in Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges than in any of the ordinary charcoal tablets"

MONOPOLY OF MINERAL
WEALTH.

Much of the vast accumulation of wealth in the hands of a few, which is coming to be regarded as a menace to the many, much of the corporate pow CT that threatens to be formidable antagonist to popular government, is due to the private possession and ex- ploitation of the sources of the coun- try's mineral supplies. The search and discovery and the getting possess sion and control is still going on, but 1t is not done by individual adventur- CTS taking perilous risks and the chances f failure or success. It is an organized work directed by corpora tions already rich in these possessions and employing expert skill, whose re- ward is guaranteed and so the power of monopoly is stealthily and steadily extending it's grasp and strengthening its control. More and more it's coils are tightening around these natural treasures of the country and more and more the power that works them is concentrating and pulling to one con- geries of corporations with a single purpose. What will the end be? Are we to be at the mercy of monstrous monopoly of the mineral resources of the country? If not, what Is to be the way of escape? It is our present pur- pose merely to propound these ques- tions, not to attempt their answer.- New York Journal of Commerce.

trained nurse, says: q have used different antisaptics in my professor but I consider Paxtine Toilet Antisep- tic far superior to them all. It is a ne- cessity for wOmen's special uses. i shall never be without it, and I recom- mend it wherever I go.''
 This is because Paxtine is the most successful formula of a noted Boston physician, used in his private practice for years in curing the most obstinate infamed and catarrhal conditions of the mucous membrane surfaces of the body, such as sore eyes, sore mouth, sore throat, nasal and pelvic catarrh.

Clover, he says, is all any farm needs if it is raised on the farm, fed out on it, and the ma nure returned to the farm. The clover is rich in nitrogen, which it takes from the air, It's roots run deep down into the soil where they get what potash they need and the farmer needs, and the dense shade thick crop of clover makes is ideal for the production of ph3sproric acid

TO FISH FROM MOTOR CAR
 ST FICH

Three years ago Captain Halgren conceived the idea of slight run by an engine and propelled by a spiked wheel which caught in the ice. He built several sleighs, but did not suc- ceed in getting one that operated sat isfactorily. This season he took his sleigh to a gas engine built with a pair of friction clutches, to operate on the same plan as an automobile, with spiked wheel which was so fitted that it would rise or fall when going over rough ice or snow.
 The sleigh is a common f1shermans sleigh, with the engine attachment, but it has been run at speed ranging from ten to fifteen miles an hour with perafect ease. The sleigh will be used this winter for fishing at Peshtigo har- bor and the captain expects to be able to make the distance between this city and Pesttigo harbor in about one fourth of the time taken by the old sail sleighs under the best of eondi- tions.-Marinette Correspondence of the, Milwaukee Sentinel.

PERILOUS TRIP
OF KEEPER OF GREENS REEr
 LIGHT.

Little Boat Nearly Swamped in storm
 While Mir. BusId was Rowing From
 Mainland.
 Robert Buski, the keeper of the new | NorWalk light at the end of Greens Reef, had very exciting and danger ous experience in the wind storm of last Thursday evening" the very night that Samuel Armour, the keeper of the Southwest ledge light at New Haven, lost his life in trying to make the light from the mainland. Buski made Rowayton harbor in his row boat, in the course of the astAr- noon when it was still Just before dark it commenced to blow hard from the southwest and kept on increasing. The captain started to make the light against his better judgment.
 He got half way out and with the boat filling as every sea broke over her, it seemed as though he would never be able to make the light, nor would he be able to turn boat about in the sea. For two terrible hours Captain Buskt fought for his life against the storm. It was only half mile to the light, yet no distance ever seemed greater. He pulled on the oars until the blood almost spurted from under his finger nails. Luckily 1t was not very cold, or he would have been frozen by the experience.
 The captain finally made the lee of the light and was hauled up the ladder, weak and exausted He states that he will never again attempt any such trip and that he would hardly give fig for his chance of life during any part of the last half of the trip.
 It so chanced that Captain Frank Lassen, the keeper of the old light and government property on Smiths island, was also up to South Norwalk that day, but when the storm broke in the afternoon, the captain deemed discretion the better part of valor and did not attempt the almost impossible pull down to the island against the gale.
