Government Warns Against Hog
Cholera "Cures."

Evidence of what appears to be a well
organized campaign to delude farmers
throughout the country into buying an
alleged cure for hog cholera, under the
impression that this has been Investigated
and approved by the United States gov
ernment, has reached the Department of
Agriculture. Articles praising this medi-
cine. are being sent out widespread to
newspapers These articles are so word
ed that it appears as if the Department Of
Agriculture had received reports from the
state of Minnesota showing that the
medicine had proved most beneficial. AS
a matter of fact the one report received by
the department was an unofficial and un-
solicited statement sent presumably from
the promoters themselves. The depart.
ment attaches no importance whatsoever
to this statement. 1t has no reason to be-
lieve in the efficacy of any proprietary
cure for hog cholera and does not recon-
mend any. Under certain conditions it
urges farmers to protect their stock with
anti hog cholera serum but that is all.
In view OF the evidence that the attempt
to create this false impression is persis-
tent and widespread. all hog owners are
warned to communicate with the United
States authorities before accepting as true
any statement that the government re-
commends any treatment other than the
serum already mentioned.

ORIGIN OF cHILDREN's DAY.

Sunday next, June ID, will be observed
as children's Day in the churches. The
origin of Children's Day dates back 10
1857. when the Rev. Charles Hall Leon
ard. then pastor OF the Universalist
Church in Chelsea. Mass on the second
Sunday in June celebrated children's Sun
day as an established day in the church
calendar. Some years preceding this he
had set apart one Sunday in the early
summer in which the church service was
devoted to the young and called some
times Rose Sunday. Flower Sunday"
or "ChiIdren's Sunday The practice
met with such ready and hearty response
from the people and It's significance and
usefulness were SO growingly apparent to
the pastor, that the second Sunday in June
was established as the permanent day.
This Children's Sunday as an institution
of the church and the day as fitting,
significant sand recognized time. were
adopted among The churches in Boston
and vicinity SO that FIVE years later it was
generally observed in that neighborhood.
In 1867. ten years after its institution. at
the session Of the general convention at
Baltimore. it received formal recognition.
But the interest in the institution had al
ready been extended beyond the Univer-
sslist Church.. In 1868 the Methodist
General Conference recommended the
setting apart of the second Sunday in
June as Children's Day. and in 1879
made its observance law of the Metho-
dist Church In 1883 the Rev. DIR. James
A Worden, of Philadelphia. of the Pres
byterian Board of Publication and
Sabbath School Work, recommended that
the General Assembly of the Presbyterian
Church. then meeting in Saratoga, de-
signate the second Sabbath of June as
permanent children's day for that denom-
ination. This was done. The Congregs-
tionalists took similar action about the
same time. and other bodies have follow
ed. until now, possibly all evangelical de-
nominations observe the day. AS a rule.
the second Sabbath of June is the day set
aside. The main object is to bring the
church and It's Sabbath-school together in
at least one formal service annually.
