These are mostly lo cal bitters or tonics of great Impurity, and, of course, devoid of medicinal eflicacy. Beware of them and get the genuine Bitters, a real remedy for ma laria, rheumatism, kidney trouble, dys pepsia, nervousness, constipation and biliousness. Physicians of eminence everywhere commend the great lnvlg orant, for both Its remedial .properties and its purity.

Boston Transcript: It is the young woman with the new suit who first dis covers that we are 'having an early f.pring. "But evil is wrough Jby want of thought, As well as want of thought."

Resultant Benefits of Its Maintenance to the Rising Generation Improve the Moral and Physical Qualftlec. Although the Athkstic Club has been in existence for over twelve months, and contributed at Intervals to the amusement of the friends of member and to the support In a slight degree of some of the most worthy local Insti tutions, Its benefits are not very thor oughly understood. Most peopCe look upon an athletlo club solely as a place of recreation lor the young and occay slonally for those of more mature age, forgetful of the fact that Its health giving Influences, both, moral and phy sical, are perhaps greater than those of tiny Institution devoted wholly or In part to purposes of recreation. It Is natural for the young to seek excite ment, which, when found, often as. sumes a pernicious form and a char acter highly prejudicial to both moral and physical health; but It is an axiom, atlc truth that when enthusiasm In the almost ever-present desire to at tain excellence manifests Itself In the minds of the boys, the danger of temp, tatlon ie comparatively sllg'ht. The feeling' of exhilaration consequent upon Che aittalnmertt of perfect physical con dition Is the (best protection against the seductive Influences of bad com pany, and most easily and readily en ables the average youth to pronounce an emphatic "No" when assailed by temptation In any form. On the assumption that this prop osition has been esteibllshed, the ques tion naturally arises, "Why Is the membership of the clubl not much larger ifhan Is the case?" (And the Inev itable conclusion is reached that the public at large are either indifferent to the moral health of our boys, or have not given the matter uiy constd. eratlon whatever. Whlcii conclusion is correct the reader can determine for himself. And yet the permanence of the club is not dependent upon the young as much as upon those who, by reason of greater and 'wider experience can by example and precept, lead their youthful brethren Into paths that tend to health and conduce to a 'bedter mor al tone. Many of the most prominent business men, whose interests are like ly to be identified -with the city for the tenure of their lives, are not mem bers, and yet they could best afford the ex'pendlture of the small amount charged for dues. "What good would It do me to belong?" a business man may ask, but he will scarcely have the hardihood to deny the argument given above. "But from a business standpoint what can I gain, for it Is from that basis that you must argue In order to convince me?" he may Insist. To this it may be replied that the wants of an institution having a membership of even 100 are many. For Instance, a year ago Jerseys, com monly known as "sweaters," were not to be found In our stores. Now the find a ready sale, as do gymnasium thoes and suits and many other things that are indlspenslble. Fuel, light, and other coinni) li'lju, Including lain, have cost the club during the last twelve months over J2.000, every dollat of which has leturned Into the chan nels of local trade. These expenses would of necMfity have Ewatnped th club Ions since md made Its malnte anace an impossShlltty but for tin generosity ol Mr. George C. Flavel, who provides the gymnasium gratuit ously. Some wMl not 'belong to the club because they do not care to ex ercise. To those It may be eald that ui specitators they can, almost at cny time, see a creditable exhibitiot. of gymnastics, wrestling, boxing, oi other sports. The club, too, has the proud honor of having among its members the chain plon middle and long distance runner of the Pacific 'Northwest, In the per son of Mr. W. E. Taillant, whose per formances during the past year have been the means of bringing the city into much prominence as the residence of the future distance champion of America. Prominent among the club's gymnasts Is Ed. Hansen, whose horizontal bar performances are ex ceedingly graceful and who Is fullj eo.ual In proficiency to any other coast amateur. Among the wrestlers D. Mc Lean and C. Hellborn are rapidly be coming proficient, while on the olnder path R. E. Carruthers, at the shorter distances divides the honors with W S. Tallant. In Prof. Wright, the club has one tf the best high Jumpers to be found, while In other branches of ath letic sport there are others of much promise. ' With such a showing It is not too much, therefore, to ask the business men to assist the institution to th extent of one dollar monthly. AH can well afford It, and In after years when the Influences of the dub become more apparent, the expenditure would be looked 'back upon with a great degree of satisfaction, and enable the con tributor to say heartily "That dollar a month to the Athletic Club was money well spent."

The Right Reverend Bishop Henry C. Potter, of the DJocese of New York. The observance of Easter in the Episcopalian church, after the manner of all ceremonies In our church. Is marked by solmen and Impressive ser vices. 'It is different from' the forms and observance among other denomi nations, in -that there U more form and ceremony Than among the Meth odMts, the PxetJbiyterians, uho Con grogatlonallsLs, and the others. These forms are more or less elaborate, ac cording to the degree in which the church is high or low. Of course on Easter Sunday all the churctt dignitaries assemble to do honor personally by observance of the day with special music and appropri ate sermons, services for the chiUren, floral decorations, etc. The day Is thus fittingly remem'Jered as a day of holy thought and promise, while an element of real gladness pervades this oelebratlon of the glorious resurrec tion of our Savior. The day is one of sweet communion among all things that live. Nature springs Into new life, and human souls into new being. Tha churches are crowded more than on any 6unday during the year, and Judging from the spectacle presented at the various churches of all creeds throughout this land, who can doubt that a general understanding and reverence for East er Day pervades all Christendom?- From "How (Different Denominations Observe Caster," In Demorest's Mag azine for April.
