treat. Professor H. T. Miller, the In

mentators, but proves nnd illustrates
one portion c f Scripture by another.
These studios are open to the public
generally and a cordial invitation Is
extended to all who wish to avail
themselves of this opportunity. The

There appears to be no lack of per
sons vtllling to take up Christian teach
ing In Cuba, Porto Rico and the Phil
ippines. It is said that hundreds of
applications aro pouring into the offices
of the various missionary societies
from both preachers nnd laymen. Most
of the applications come from Califor
nia and the southwest, where the can
didates have long been In contact with
Spanish-Speaking people. Ono (secre
tary, whoso society represents ono of
the largest denominations, had above
"00 applications In a single day recent
ly. Another announced that It would
appoint two district secretaries. Ap
plications from 102 persons eamo In re
sponse. Another planned to send out
20 men, somo of them to Manila, and
for days together it received as many
applications each mail as it intended
MERIT MAKES IT FAMOUS.
Tho Only Remedy in tho World, Ex
cept a Surgical Operation, That
Will Certainly Cure Any
Form of Piles.
The study of physicians, the experi
ments of chemists, the loudly adver
tised pretensions of quacks, have been
for years expended in one direction;
to (Ind a pile cure that will cure.
The results havo been a number of
harmless, and in moat cases useless
olntmentB, suppositories and even In
ternal remedies, which the public havo
weighed In tho balance of experience
and found wanting; nearly all of them
gavo some relief, but nothing approach
ing a radical cure resulted from these
preparations.
The remedy required Is one that Im
mediately stops the pain so severe in
most cases of piles, and then by con
tracting the small blood vessels (capil
laries) to their normal size, produces
a radical cure by reducing and Anally
absorbing the tumors and healing the
Inflamed, raw mucous surfaces.
Until two years ago, no such remedy
had been produced, but at that time
suppository wan placed upon the
market, which hns sipr-o proven Itself
to be tho long sought permanent cure
for this common and distressing trouble
It has rapidly become famous through
out tho United States and Canada, and
Is now sold by nearly all druggists un
der tho name of the Pyramid Pile Cure.
It Ifl now the best known, because its
merit and safety havo advertised it
wherever used. It has been advertised
by word of mouth, from one sufferer to
another; people who had tried every
thing else, even submitting to painful
and dangerous surgical operation with
out avail Hnally have found that piles
may bo cured without pain and without
expense, practically, a the Pyramid
Pile Cure Is sold for tho nominal price
of 50 cents und $1.00 per package.
Tho Pyramid Instantly stops all pain
nnd nt the eamo time contain no cocaine
morphine or narcotics; the acids and
healing properties contained In the re
medy speedily remove, cause a health
ful, natural contraction and absorption
of tumors; it will cure any form of
rectal trouble except cancer and ad
vanced fistula, which by the way,
nearly always rwsult from neglecting
proper nnd timely treatment for piles.
As above stoted, can furnish you with
tho Pyramid Pllo Cure at DO cents for
ordinary size or $1.00 for largo package.

Tho Rev. Ilr. Oeorgo M. Christian,
now of Newark, N. J has accepted a
call to succeed the late Rov. T. McK.
Brown ns a pastor of tho Church of
St. Mary the Virgin In New York. Dr.
Christian is n high-church man and
has achieved some celebrity lit tho gen
eral conventions of his church by
Hteadfnst and earnest support of church
traditions and his Angllcnn tendencies.
Twelve years ago ho combatted In a
general convention proposed changes
In the Nlceno Creed and came to be
acknowledged by his efforts at that
tlmo ns one of tho leaders of his party.
Dr. Christian Is a graduate of tho Uni
versity of Pennsylvania and has held
various rectorates since leaving St.
Mnrk's church, Philadelphia, where hi
was curate. T)v. Christian is a believ
er In mission. and has conducted very
successful ones in several large cities.
Ills ucccptance of the call to Nov;
York has been somewhat of a nilrprlse
to New Jersey churchmen, as It has
generally been believed that he stood
an excellent chance of becoming'
bishop.
It Is said that the Rev. Dr. Custav
Oatthell, rabbi of tho Temple Enmnil
Kl, New York, Is thinking of retiring.
Dr. Ciotthcll, who now if more than 71
years old, favors the appointment to
his Important post of a younger man,
who Is physically fitted to perforin the
manifold duties of tho ofllc. It Is well
known that Dr. Gotthell represents tho
so-called moderate reform class of Ju
daism, which was founded In the Uni
ted States by the Rov. Drs. Isaac M.
Wis0, David Klnhorn nnd Samuel
Hlrsch. The main object of these men
was to mnke Judaism attractive to the
rising generations by substituting Eng
lish for Hebrew, by teaching "law
rather than letter" and by eliminating
from the ilttial certain forms and ob
servances of an Oriental character
which were out of place In this coun
try. The loading position occupied by
the Temple Kmanu-E! makes the selec
tion of a worthy successor to Dr. Gott
hell a very difficult matter. Dr. Emll
O. Hlrsch, the talented rabbi of Sinai
temple. Chicago, 1ms been mentioned
for the position.

LAGT OF THE BARONS.
Peculiarities of Sir Henry Hawkins,
Just Itotirecl from Bench.
From the Now York Sun.
Sir Henry Hawkins, the English
Judge who has Just resigned at tho
ago of Si, was the las't of tho barons
although hi- only held tho title for one
dny. In 1S7G Mr. Hawkins was ap
pointed by tho Crown as successor to
Baron Blackburn, ami the Court Cir
cular named him "Baron" Hawkins,
but tho next day this was corrected on
the ground that the law barons had
been extinguished by the Judicature
net. Accordingly Justice Hawkins be
came, by the usual . ceremony of
knighthood. Sir Henry Hawkins.
Tho former Judge had no sympathy
with offenders, and If over he allowed
mltltrntlne clrcuni!-tnnees to Influence
him he Invariably apologized for his
lenity. In tho great Tlchborne trial he
was retained bor the prosecution, and
It has been said that he was rewarded
for his conduct of that case, and that
ho would never have been a Judge had
It not been for the strange lnlluence
tho opponents of tho claimant pos
sessed over tho government. Sir Henry's
tastes wore plebeian, his companion"
men who frequented th lowest klnu
of sport, nnd his most faithful friend
a s-avage dog, which accompanied him
everywhere, much to tho annoyance of
High SliPiills and brother Judges.
Returning from an Eprfom meeting,
Sir Henry, close-cropped and flashily
dtesed, was once surrounded at a rall
wuy station by a gang of roughs, who
had designs on his watch and pocket-
book. Sir Henry, thinking that he might
I be rrcocrnlzod by some of them, one
of whom ho especially remembered
having sentenced some time previously,
I raised his hat and said: "A'ou don't
I seem to recognize who I am." The
Judge smiled as he awaited the reply,
J expecting to hear the disgusted ejac
! illation '"Awklns:" But he was disap
pointed, for the ruffian, in tones of dls
l gust murmured, "Oh, Lor', n blooniln'
prizefighter," nnd left his lordship free
from further molestation.
A prisoner, who had just been sen
tencer to seven years' penal servitude
exclaimed: "Oh, my Lord, I'll never live
! half the time." Hawkins took another
' look at him and answered: "I don't
think it is nt nil advisable, or desir
able, that you should."
On another occasion the usual for
mality was gone through of asking
a prisoner who had been found guilty
If he had anything to say. The man,
striking a theatrical posture, and with
his right hand In the air, exclaimed:
"May the Almighty strike me dead If I
don't speak tho truth. I am Innocent
of this crime." Justice Hawkins nald
nothing for a minute, but slnotl glanc
ing at tho clock, and then In his most
Impressive manner said: "Since the
Almighty has not thought well to In
tervene, I will now proceed to pass sen
tence." Prepare for Spring.
