HlNDUS ALARMED AND ASTIR
Spread of Christianity Threatens
Whole Structure of Hinduism
With Overthrow.

Hinduism is awakening to the fact
that If the great sub-strata of Hindu
society known as the depressed classes
be raised by Christianity, the whole
structure Of Hinduism is theatened
with overthrow. This awakening is
being followed by efforts in various
parts for the improvement of these
poor people. The latest is a move
ment in Ahmedabad. In that city, on
August 30, meeting was held at
which the attendance of the depressed
classes was encouraged and in which
they were allowed to sit beside caste
people. Resolutions were passed for
the formation of a Central Hindu asso-
citation, which should have for its OBJ
1ects the raising of the depressed
classes ard their readmissiOn into
Hinduism after being converts to for
eign faiths. AS to the means to be
adopted for realizing these objects,
the following suggestions were made:
(a) Starting schools, clubs and asso-
Citations; (b) establishing preaching
missions; (c) publishing papers,
periodicals, magazines and leaflets;
(d) adopting such other means as may
be conducive to the above objects.

NO HEALTHY SKIN LEFT

My little son, boy Of five, broke
out with an itching rash. Three doc
tors prescribed for him, but he kept
getting worse until we could not dress
him any more. They finally advised
me to try a certain medical college,
but its treatment did no good. At
the time I was induced to try CUT.
cura he was so bad that had to cut
his hair off and put the Cuticura ONT
ment on him on bandages, as it was
impossible to touch him with the bare
hand. There was not one square inch
OF skin on his whole body that was
not affected. He was one mass Of
sores. The bandages used to stick to
his skin and in removing them 1t used
to take the skin off with them, and
the screams from the poor child were
heartbreaking. began to think that
he would never get we'll, but after the
second application Of Cuticura Oint.
ment I began to see signs Of improve
ment, and with the third and fourth
applications the sores commenced to
dry up. His skin peeled of twenty
times, but it finally yielded to the
treatment. Now can say that he is
entirely cured, and stronger and
healthier boy you never saw than he
is to-day. twelve years or more since
the cure was effected. Robert Wattam,

Snrlnd Fever.

Spring fever is not a complaint.
When man has 1t he is so we'll sat
isfed that he never makes q COM
plant. Spring fever Is one OF the
greatest institutions ever known. At
other seasons of the year man is
apt to think that he is lazy, but just
now he knows it is spring fever, and
he yawns and stretches and Is glad he
is alive and doesn't care whether
school keeps or not. With due care a
man may make even an ordinary at
tack of spring fever serve him until
the middle of July, and after that he
can rely upon his natural ingenuity.
The fine thing about 1t Is that every
body else has 1t and so nobody can
criticise him.
Every now and then some misguided
person invents cure for spring fever,
but by a wise dispensation Of ProVt
dence he is too lazy to push 1t.

Somewhat Disappointing,

He was a doctor and was patiently
waiting for his first patient. Thought
he: IF the mountain will not come
to Mohammed, Mohammed must go
to the mountain. And as patients will
not seek me out l must needs seek
them out" He strolled through the
cheap market and presently saw a
man buy six nice cucumbers. Here's
a chance!" said. he, and followed him
home. Patiently he waited for four
long and lonely hours and about mid
night the front door quickly opened,
and the man dashed down the steps.
He seized him by the arm and cried
earnestly: do you want a doctor?"
