To overcome the well-grounded and

departure from the usual course pursued
by the makers of put-up medicines for do

cast and openly to the whole world, full
and complete list Of all the ingredients
entering ins>the composition OF his widely
celebrated hedicjhes. Thus he has taken
bis numer91s patrons and patients into
his full kon6&ence. Thus too he has re-
moved ed/hisIhedicines from among secret

BAN ON POWDER AND RATS.

Girl students at Raven High School,
Youngstown, O., are incensed because
the faculty has put ban on the hair
kinds of rats and the face kind of
powder, and has instructed them to put
on heavy undtrclothes. The girls as
sert thst It is not the business OF the
faculty If they DO wear false hair or
powder their faces. 1t is the order cou-
ce1niDg their underwear which sDgered
them most, as they declare that 1t is
presuming too far for any one to tell
them what kind OF underwear they must
wear.
"Rats" are barred from the choir Of
the Church OF the Ascension In New
York. Rev. Percy S.ickuey Grant hss
decreed that no more shall women sing
ers 10 his choir "hOf'' up their coiffures

BURIED IN A WELL.

All hope of rescuing John Ooffen, the
young farmer of Central Islip, New York,
who was buried alive Sunday 60 feet be-
low the surface oflhe earth by q collapse
of we'll 10 which he WAS working, had
been abondoued late last night by his
father.
The progress Of sinking second sbsft
to the level at which the cave.in occurred
has been 80 slow that 1t is now believed
the prisoner must surely hsve beer
smolhered by the ssud or drowned by
the mounting water in the we'll.
All Monday night and all last nigh
long relfrsys of men worked at the pew
shaft. There is a possibility that the
crossbeams st the bottom Of the vel
may have formed an air chamber, il
which Ooffen might live for short time.
The chances are said to be not more th ar
one 10 a Thousand that he could keeE
alive until the men can reach him. III

BISHOP ATTACKS COLLEGES

In announcing the annual collection
for the benefit OF the Catholic Universty
of America, BIshopjMcFsul sent the fol-
lowing letter from Trenton, N. j., to all
of the pastors of the diocese, and it hiss
been read in sill Of the churches.
"In announcing the annual collection
for the benefit of the Catholic University
of America, LET me draw the attention
of the clergy and the laity to the danger
of psirouizlng uon-Cstholic Institutions
of learning. Every one knows that 1t
has been repeatedly stated on the best Of
authority that certain professors in our
great secular universities deliver lectures
calculated to subvert Christian faith and
Christian morality. They assert that
there is no God, a. least as men hereto
fore conceived Of Hin; no divinely given
Ten Commandments; no church, and as
for the Bible, one must be freed from all
slavery to the sacred myths which II
contains. 1t is needless TO ssy that the
Christianity which these alleged scien-
uic gentlemen attack is not Christianity y
as txpounded by the Catholic Church.
They build up a straw religion of their
own and then take delight in knocking
it down. When visiting our secular
universities l have been amazed at the
wealth they possess and the generosity
of their friends. At the same time ]
have been ssddened at the thought OF
how little Catholics do, 10 comparison
with their non. Catholic brethren, for the
building up aud the maintenance OF
higher education in this county,"

SMALLER FARMS IN VIRGINIA,

SMALLER FARMS IN VIRGINIA.
Virginia farmers are ceasiDg to be
land poor and are becoming crop rich.
They are seeiug the fallscy Of the old
agricultural order, which bid q man to
scrsps to the surface of many acres on
broomsedge farms aud give little at.
tentiou to dozsn fields. They are dis
covering that the intensive cultivation of
score of acres or 30 is more profitable
than the extensive neglect of.a thousand.
They are putting into the bsnk profits
which formerly were charged to the
other side of the ledger as taxes. This
revolution, pointed ont by the Times-
Despatch some weeks ago in citing the
incresss in the number of small farms,
has likewise attracted the attention Of
the esteemed Virginia Citizen. 10 It's
last issue The newspaper points out how
a section OF Prince William has been
transformed by a division into small
farms. A colony of Dnnksrds from the
valley, Gays the Ciiiz,n, settled around
Manassas and bought many acres OF
run down, neglected farm lands. They
divided them into small tracks and ap.
piled to them the best principals of in
teusive agriculture. As result "worn
out' lands are today yielding magnifi.
cent ctops, 4 wilderness has been re.
claimed and farm values have been
trebled. This Lesson cannot be too strong
ly impressed on farmers. Virginia lards
to-day, after almost 800 years of culti'
vaion, will yield IS bounIiful crops as
virgin soil, if only they are cultivated
closely aud skiliully. If they are neg
lected, and il they are fsrmed on large
scale by INSULT 'ient lab1rithey cannot be
expected to afford more than bare
living for unhsppy owners. Examples
of the latter system are seeu everywhere,
in dilspidsted farmhous 9. lean stock and
barren fields. Examples of the other
sort can be seen in other places than the
Dunkard district. - Bradsreets.
