H is zeal, bis faith, his per­ sistent pursuit of unity could hardly fail to leave their mark upon events. Even in the 16 years of his pontificato he has achieved more than it seemed possible for a pope to compass. He has made peace with the French repnblio and the Russian czar, aud if be has not effected a reconciliation with the king­ dom of Italy it is because he has satis­ fied himself that to do so would be pre­ mature and inexpedient. He has, in a largo measure, the imagination withont which no great object is ever attained. W hat to less hopefnl souls seems like a dream is to him a present reality. He looks out over the world, and he is not In the least daunted by the weary spec­ tacle that meets his gaze. He sees dis­ sension and schism all around him, but he sets to work to bring unity out of confusion as cheerfully as though his object were already half attained.

Ice every evening These services aro call- ad H oly Ghost meetings, and at such times tbe spirit Is supposed to be especially pres­ ent. A t tho H oly Ghost m eeting on Tuesday evening, when those present had become filled w ith the spirit, a large, portly Ger- man woman suddenly arose tn her scat and began to talk and gesticulate. “ Come forwt rd, sister; come forw ard,” aald tbe leader. She did go forward hut on the way sho .caught sight o f .Mr. L evi Forgy and In­ sisted that he should accompany her. See­ in g that tbo woman was greatly excited and wishing to avoid a scene, he arose and accompanied her to tbe altar. N o sooner had ibn reached that place than she turned about, crying: “ Open tho doors, whilo I cast out this d ev il.” Now, Mr. Forgy Isn 't a devil. Neither has ho tho appearance of ono. H e also ob­ jected to having anything cast out o f him nr being himself cast out and started to return to his seat. This seemed to anger tho woman, who turned suddenly upon him and began claw ing him in the face. She ecnitcbed him until the blood flowed In profusion before be could make his es­ cape. When be did get away, she turned her attention to the other members o f the congregation. She walked up the aisle, claw in g at every one w ithin reach. H er action caused great const.-rnatlon, especially among the women, who made w ild attempts to get out o f her way Miss Cora K in g was knocked down In the wild rush, as was also Mrs. George M aloie.

Personally we enjoy the very best of health year in and year out, but among our friends is J. L. Myers, pro­ prietor of the Broadway Pharmacy, a man who knows his business thorough­ ly, is entirely wedded to chemistry and hygiene and often “ talks shop.” One evening the conversation turned on nen discoveries in drugs. H e told us that one of our mutual friends, John W vandt, a locomotive en­ gineer, owed his health to a new medi­ cine known as Dr. W illiam s’ Pink Pills, and that Mrs. Lawler, the wife of Patrick Lawler, cooper at the Tannin E x trad Works, and weil-known in this city, hat been raised by them from what hei friends thought was her death bed. H aving had our attention called to the matter so paiticularly we have sine« found that everybody has a good word ior Pink Pills, and especially were we interested in the case of Mrs. Lawler Finally we called at her home and asked her to tell us if Pink Pills had realh done as much for her as had been told. She said they had, and she would re­ peat the la d s to me. Mrs. Lawler said: “ Two years and s half ago I was taken sick. 1 then iiveii in Tacoma, and for live weeks was nol able to turn myself in bed. My hus­ band and boys lilted me around an cared for me, and they scarcely hoped for my recovery. I could eat nothing, was simply worn out. “ I sent for tiie Pink Pills and I began taking them.

I have in the two years and a half used twenty one boxes of them, and we all use them when we are feeling out of sorts. I have recommended them to many of my friends, and they always helped them and I can say to all mothers that they will find them a good medicine to build them up, cure headaches, dizziness and the ills which so often beset them.” Mr. I-awler also stated that he h id often taken Pink Pills. That he used u> Ire troubled with sick headache and diz ziness in the morning, but that Pink Pills had cured him. Dr. W illiam s’ Pink Pills contain all the elements necessary to give new life and richnees to the blood and restore shattered nerves. They are for sale by all druggists or may be had by mail from Dr. W illiam s’ Medicine Company, Sche­ nectady, N. Y ., for 50 cents per box, oi six boxes for $2.50.

One or tw o may be captured and the cargoes confiscated The majority escape, and the profit on the stuff that Is landed in safety easily compensates for the losses and leaves a handsome margin. The chief article smuggled there Is liquor. The Canadians, hy avoiding the duty on whisky and alcohol, save an amount which is sometimes as high as til or $3 a gallon and profit ar irdingly. Whisky, cigars aud tuoacco, too, to­ gether with precious stones, are the things which seem most tem pting to the frontiers­ men in Maine and N ew Brunswick. There is many a load of hay that goes over the border with a big ju g of whisky hidden within. A load of wood or on apparently empty packing case often serves tho same purpose.
