A CHURCH LETTER.

Mrs. e. O. Church, who is living
near one of the churches in Carey
dom, sends in to have the address
of their paper changed, and Incl
dentally adds:
We are now living on our land
near the Springfield P. O. and just a
short walk from the Presbyterian
tabernacle where we have preaching
every alternate Sunday by Rev. Coen
and Sunday School every Sunday at
II o'clock. The building is quite
commodious, built of boards with
canvas top. The floor is carpeted all
over. 1t is furnished with a good
stove, nice organ and plenty of hymn
books. Seated with movable rustic
or Stat seats. was surprised to find
such a good place of worship where
the country is just being settled, but
am told that it was built and fur
nished, also the pastor paid, by the
Missionary society of the Presbyte-
rian church. This is very pictur-
esque spot overlooking beautiful
lake mile in length and in sight
of the lights OF Pocatello and Am
erican Falls. The snow-capped
mountains and the sunsets would
make beautiful painting. All we
need is the artist.

PINEAPpLEs AS A MEDICINE.

PINEAPPLES AS A MEDICINE.
The medicinal value Of pineapples
has recently been the subject of con-
siderable inquiry among physicians,
and in Hawaii experiments have been
made to determine something of these
properties. 1t has been found that
the fruit Of the pineapple contains a
digestive principle closely resembling
pepsin in Its action, and to this is
probably due the beneficial results of
the use of the fruit in certain forms
Of dyspepsia. On the casein of milk
pineapple juice acts as a digestive in
almost the same. manner as rennet,
and the action is also we'll illustrated
by placing thin piece of uncooked
beef between two slices of fresh pine
apple, where In the course of a few
hours its character is completely
changed.
In diphtheritic sore throat and
Group pineapple juice has come to be
very largely relied upon in countries
where the fruit is common. The false
membranes which cause the closing
OF the throat seem to be dissolved
by the fruit acids and relief is almost
immediate.

OsTEOPATH EXPLAINS.

Osteopathy, the drugless science
of treating disease, is little under
stood by the general public. People
suppose we treat nothing but rheu-
matism, or some old chronic trouble
which has been given up by the med
ical practitioner.
wish to ask why, If we can treat
a disease of several years standing,
the so-called chronic, why can we not
treat the same disease in the acute
form? For all human ailments were
at one time. acute.
The body can be compared to a
lnachiney- made up of its respective
parts, and each part in perfect accord
with. the adjacent part and all in
perfect working order. Result: ease
or health.
On the other hand, either through
injury or expSsure, or some other
cause. the parts bacome misadjusted;
then there must necessarily be trou-
BILE in some part, generally to. the or
gan whichfsN supplied by the nerve
coming from the injured part. That
we call disease.
To effect cure adjust the parts
to their normal relation, in other
words correct the body machinery
and the trouble disappears.
Drugs keep down the pain and
still leave the cause of the trouble
uncorrected. In other words don't
stand on the cats tail and administer
opium, but remove the foot from the
cats candal appendage and the trou-
BILE disappears, the cause being re-
moved.
