Dr. Driver is 'peculiarly adapted for this lino of work. He possesses an ex ceptionally fine phy-ique, and a face which attracts one as belonging to a man of rare mental power. Years of fruitful travel and a close study of tho history of all lancls in all ages have made him especially lilted to render discourse on tin; great subjects which etVeet the destiny of parts or tho whole of the human race. In his lecture here he showed all the powers of a gifted orator great 'wholesome thoughts, a pleasing delivery and the power, seem ingly, to carry the emotions of his auditors wherever ho would. At times he was exceedingly witty and humor ous, but every word ho uttered had some place in the construction of tho great thoughts which even humor could not keop from filling cver.y crnck and crevice in tho massive structure of fact and prediction tho orator reared. In an inimitablo manner ho told of the on ward march of the Anglo-Saxon and the characteristics that have marked him through all his history. Appleton, (Wis.) 'res.

Two of these children being 14 enough to attend school had, the year before, been vaccinated under the called "tyrannical" law requiring teachers to forbid the admission to school of children who could not pres ent a certificate of successful vaccina tion. The third ohild being reime6. the mother, yielding to the psrauasion of foolish neighbors, refused to have vaccinated. The result la shown in the illustration taken from a photograph.
