WHY "PATAGONIA."
A correspondent asks "Why was the
name 'Patagonia,' given to the lower
section of Hyde Park." An old resi
dent explains that in the early history
of this section a party of several huu
dred men went from lower Hyde Park
to Patagonia, South America, attracted
thither by the mining Held and the al
luring stipend offered to workmen. He
cause of this the name "Patagonia"
was given to the homes they had left
and It yet remains.

(Hi all sides congratulations are m-

by his friends over the annilntnii'iit
which he has received as a member
of the Scranton poor board. The hon-
or was entirely unsolicited. The pi tl-j
Hon was got up without consulting Mr.
Terppe and when he heard of It, he
went to Recorder of Deeds Charles
Huester and told' him to go to Judge
Archbald and tell him he was not seek-
Ing the appointment, that his business
demanded all his attention. Mr. Terppe
will make an efficient poor director and
his appointment gives general satis
faction. The retirement of John Olb
bons will take from the board a man
who has served well In that capacity,
and who, for his labors, Is entitled to
the thanks of the community.

THE CAUSE OF LAGRIPPE.
Sow Admitted to Do frorn'Oeranged Di--
(estion.
' Careful observation In many coses of
I,n tiript extending over several years
have gradually developed the fact that
It is very generally caused from dietetic
errors.
In other words, during the prevalence
of LaGrlppc persons who suffer from
Indigestion or stomach troubles are al
mott invariably victims of the epi
demic. This can be readily understood when
you remember that the germs of any
disease cannot gain a foothold In the
system of a man or woman who la
blessed with perfect digestion because
perfect digestion means perfect health,
and such persons can bid defiance to
La Grippe, or to any other prevailing
epidemic.
For this reason physicians have re
cently introduced Into their practices
the new preparation known as Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tub let i as an almost o-itulii
preventive of La Grippe, us this remedy
by giving perfect digestion and ussim
llatiou of the food so furtlrles t tie sys
tem against disease tliut all danger
from this epidemic Is reduced to a mini
mum. So popular have' Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets become that It is clulmed with
in one month after being made known
to the public one hundred und ninety
three druggists in Detroit, Mich., alone
were selling it and today they pro
nounce it the most tatisfactory remedy
they are selling for all forms of sto
mach derangement.
The price at druggists Is but 50 cents
for full sized packuge.
It is not a cure-all, but Is recom
mended us a cure for Dyspepsia and
stomach troubles only.

ORIGIN, POWERS, DUTIES.
Meaning of tho Word of Bishop and
Divine Institution of the tiff Ice.
The word bishop Is derived from the
Greek cplscopos, which was used by
writers of the earliest age In the gen
era! sense of "overseer," and was spe
cially applied In later Greek to the of
He-era whom the Athenians sent to sub
Ject states. In the LXX (E. g. Num.
xxxl, 14; 2 Par. xxx, 12) episcopos Is
used for an oincer or prefect of any
kind. Christians adopted the word as
the title of an ecclesiastical dignitary,
with authority to rule a diocese as Its
chief pastor. It Is therefore evident
that a bishop Is superior to ordinary
priests and as denned by the council of
Trent, his superiority Is of divine instl
t n t Ion.
The divine Institution of the episco
pacy was the belief of the Anglican
church, as well as the Catholic, for a
long period of time, and never has the
former formally cast off this belief.
Protestants, generally, do not pretend
to nave otsnnps, or, ir they hove clergy
men officiating In similar capacity, they
do not attribute to them any authority
further than that bestowed by the
cnurcn.
The word eplskopos is first used In the
Acts of the Apostles, xx, 28. where St.
faui says to the clergy of Kuhesus
"Take heed to yourselves and to the
wnnie llock. In which the Holy Ghost
made you bishops." The contention of
Protestant writers Is that the Greek
eplskopos, or hislyvp and presbyter.were
In the days of thesipostles synonymous
terms, and that they corresponded In
gtade of eclesiastlcal dignity to the
ministers or clergymen of the present,
ami inererore conclude that there wer
no bishops in the modern sense of the
term,
BISHOP Or JERUSALEM.
The following argument Is advanced
by catholic writers to show that Ht
lames the Less was bishop of Jerusa
lem: In the year 44, when St. Peter
was released from prison, he desired
information to be given to James and
the brethren. At the apostollo council
James delivers Judgment ("wherefore I
Judge.") St. Paul. In his epistle to the
Galattans, describes Judaizera from
Jerusalem as "certain who came from
James," thus naming the church by Its
Dii-nop; in Acts xxi, is. -St. Paul Is said
to have made a formal visit to St.
James and to his presbyters. Speaking
on me question whether or not St.
Jumes was bishop of Jerusalem, Dr.
Light foot, bishop" of Durham, probably
the ablest writer who ever attacked the
apostolic origin of the episcopacy, says
that St. James was "the precedent and
pattern of the latter episcopate."
The council of Trent says that a
bishop Is the successor, of the apostles.
Having received the sacrament of or
der In all Its fullness, he can, like the
apostles, confirm, ordain priests and
consecrate other bishops. With refer
ence to order, a bishop Is us high as the
pope himself. It Is Incumbent upon a
bishop to bear witness to the faith and
tradition of his predecessor and of his
flock, together with many other duties,
all of which rights he exercises In union
with and submission to the See of
Peter.
F.very priest throughout the diocese,
when saying mass, prays for the bishop
by name iu the Canon. In early times
he was addressed as Most Holy, Most
Ulessed, Lord (domlnus), Your Holi
ness (sanclitas tua). These titles are
now reserved to the pope. A bishop Is
addressed by the pope as "venerable
brother."
The ornaments and Insignia of tho
ofllec of a bishop are the pectoral cross.
small tunic, dalmatic, ring, mitre, cro-
iiler, premlal. gloves, stockings, slip
pers, episcopal throne and poutllical
vestments. The pectoral cross Is worn
by the bishop on tile breast and recalls
lo mind the custom of the first Chris
tians, wlio ulways wore u cross sus
pended from the neck. The small tunic!
und (lalmutic are the two ornaments
peculiar to the sub-deacou and 'dcucon
and lire worn by the bishop to show
thut ho Is clothed with the plenltudo of
the priesthood. The ring signifies the
alliance which the bishop contracts
with his church In his eonHecvatloh,
and the mitre Is an. ornament the ori
gin of which dates back to the ancient
law und slgnilies the- royalty of the
priesthood: the two pieces' whirl) hang
down on the shoulders signify the old
nnd new testaments, with both of
which the bishop mutt be perfectly
conversant. ' ....
TUB BISHOP'S SORPTION.
The crosier Is the bishop's .'scepter.

minds him that he must watc h over nil
his Mock. A piece of silk placed over
the knees when he sits during the, cele
bration nf the muss Is called the gre-

which' the bishop contracts -with his
church in his .consecration. '-'Stockings
and slippers which the bishop puts on
In the church were a mnrk of distinc
tion Worn by the priests ami senators
of Rome. .For this reason they are
worn by bishops, who cannot use them
except ' while performing tin sacred
duties of their ofllce. They signify
that the bishops are successors of the
apostles, those great missionaries who
traversed the world to preach the gos
pel. The episcopal throne stands In
the sanctuary of the bishop's cathedral
and Is occupied by him during the more
solemn ceremonies of the church.
Originally bishops were chosen bv
the apostles. In the third century "by
the vote of all the faithful and by the
judgment of the bishops," says Cy
prian. Popular election continued In
the Latin church until the eleventh
century. Later on the right of ap
pointment was reserved to the popes
in certain cases and still later entirely
to them. This condition has not, how

THINGS AUK DIFFERENT NOW.
A Story of Two Men Who'tlava
pcrlenecd I'ps and Do Was. ;'. .
From the Washington Star. 1 ' :.;" i'
Senator Mantle of . Montana, Senator
Dubois, of Idaho, and Patsey Clark, uf
Spokane, Wash.; were walking1 down
the avenues the other day when Mantle .
remarked: "Fatsey, didn't' i offef'-you "
some work one time ninny years a4,
and didn't you refuse It?" " . ( -:
'Yes," responded Patsey, "but I Ala-
not have to accept the offer. V- . ; . .': ';
"Well. I don t knownboiit that. ; con
tinued Mr. Mantle, "I have It In mf
mind that you really 'owe 'the', soma
work." - ':
Then followed the story. Mantle; vrho
Is a teletrrapti operator,' had a station
out on the divide. This was many year ,
ajro. Patsey Clark and a number o
fellows with hlmi were polngr on farther
west. They reached Mantle's place.
and after some preliminary talk, they
lVmalned with him for the night. They
did not exactly promise, to cut up a lot ,
of wood that Mantle had stacked up '
for winter, but It was Mantle's under
standing; that they - would do so. In
the morning; they slipped away, leav
ing Mantle out their board and night
lodging. Blnce then both Mantle and
Clark have prospered. Mantle Is Unit
ed States senator and Patsey haa a hoi
In the ground In Idaho which pays,
him $76,000 a year. ,
