BISHOP SAB|N DEAD;
LEAVES 'vALED|CTORY'
Retired Lawyer and Founder Of
Evangelical Christian Science
Church. .7

Bishop Oliver C. Sabin of the Evan
gelical Christian Science Church, a re-
tired lawyer and civil war veteran. died
at his home. 1929 NJ street northwest,
yesterday morning. Announcement of his
death was not made to the public until
this afternoon.
Bishop Sabins ideas on death differed
somewhat from those of Mrs. Mary Baker
G. Eddy, head of the Church of Christ,
Scientists, and We're set forth in the fol-
lowing letter left to members of his
church:
I'm giving this letter to the world as a
sort of valedictory, 1 invoke the aid Of
Almighty God that He will inform me
what to say and how to say it for the
greatest good for the family of man.
Belief in Life Eternal.

Not a City Is Safe.

Dr. McLaughlin's report, submitted to-
day. showed extensive pollution in the
waters adjacent to many of the large
cities, and declares that owing to the
present position of intakes there is not
single city on the lakes which can be
said to possess water that is safe with
out treatment.
The remedy. Dr. Mclaughlin said,
should be sought by the best sanitarians
in the world. The commission under
treaty has no power to remedy conditions,
but it will suggest the employment of
world known sanitarians and authorities
on public health, and after investigation
by these experts will recommend legisla-
ton to embody their views to the Can
adian and United States governments.
DR.. Mclaughlin spent about six rlonths
on the investigation and his field covered
every mile of boundary water from Du-
luth, at the head of Lake Superior. to the
point where the St. Lawrence river leaves
the New York state boundary. He had
several assistants and they made use OF
every possible means to examine the
water suspected OF sewage pollution.

Anup-to-date remedy for

is. In successful use over
so years.

Colds are caught in many
ways: lily ventilated rooms;
rooms that have direct draughts;
crowded rooms; damp houses;

A dose of Peruna at the right
time, at the first symptom of
cold, before the bones begin to
ache, before the sore throat
manifests itself, or the cough, or
the discharge from the nose, just
a dose or two of Peruna before
these symptoms begin is gener-
ally sufficient. But after the cold
is once established with the
above symptoms prominent, a
bottle of Peruna, or maybe two,
will be necessary.
