U la known thait many people partake, whose physical condition demanja In dividual service and many are deprived of this blessing from a sense of justice to others. Is the oliumh exempt frn the discoveries of medtcil science? Can she escape the danger whlori the col lective usage of any vessel Invites? This Is the day of progress, when the intelli gence of a thinking people must ques tion the safety of even thia old and honored custom, a day when self-protection la not antagonistic to Christan ity. Attention has been called to this matter by the recent Invention of a syphon design d for Individual service. The liquid can-'be freely drawn Into the mouth, but not one drop can return to the cup. All danger s thus obviated while the Idea of unity and fellrnvhkp attending the us of one cup Is retained. Little Church New ot s.
