CANCER CURED

LIFE SAVED

By the Persistent Use of

Ayei^s Sarsaparilla

"I was troubled for years with a sore on my knee, winch several physicians, who treated me, called a cancer, assuring me that nothing could be done to save my life. As a last resort, I was induced to try Aver's Sarsaparilla, and, after taking a number of bottles, the sore

began to disappear and my general health improve. I persisted in this treatment, until the sore was entirely healed. Since then, I use Ayer's Sarsaparilla occasionally as a tonic and blood-purifier, and, indeed, it seems as though I could not keep house without it."—Mrs. S. A. FIELDS, Bloomfield, la.

BISHOP POTTER'S SYMPATHY.

Taking His Turn Pastor of the Poor la New York. Special Correspondence.

NEW YORK, July 23.—Henry Codman Potter, Episcopal bishop of New York, who is taking his turn as pastor of tho Cathedral mission on the east side so as to study slum life at first hand, is a most interesting ecclesiastic.

Ho is of an aristocratic family, with aH" the tendencies involved in such ties and association as must be his, yet ho is full of sympathy for tho poor, full of feeling for tho oppressed, and on more than one occasion ho has spoken so strongly upon what ho considers the tenof a so times to so overreach themselves as to call out sore it is from certain quarters. In fact, some of the so called inonoy kings luivo said he was certainly a socialist in effect if not by profession and really little less than an anarchist. When New York celebrated the jfmr hundredth anniversaty of the discovery of America by Columbus, he preached a sermon before the president of the United States and his cabinet in tho course of which he denounced "plutocracy" in almost unmeasured terms and declared that of all dangers to the republic it was perhaps the worst. This sermon created no end of talk^jthough it was not more outspoken than many others delivered in tho hearing of less prominent auditors from time to time.

BISHOP POTTEB.

Bishop Potter is of very distinguished bearing and of strong though comely countenance. With tho exception of rather modest side whiskers his clean cut face is shaven smooth, and were it not for those little hirsute appendagos he might readily be taken for a Catholic prelate. He weara tho conventional attire of tho high church Episcopalian priest, and it well sets off his tall and excellently proportioned flguro. In many ways he resembles and reoalls his deceased brother, Clarkson M. Potter, who was so prominent in congress about 20 years ago.

Although the bishop is radical in some directions, he is very conservative in others. He does not believe it to be specially conducive to the good of the church or of the community for clergymen to be as prominent in social affairs as they are in England. He believes there are times, however, when it should not only be considered the privilege but the bounden duty of the clergy to take part in public matters. This does not mean that he favors what is known as "politics in the pulpit," but it does mean that he believes the spiritual leaders of the people ought to take part in any reform movement of importance when it is clear that they can thus help along the proposed reform. At such times he favors "sensational preaching," if preaching that makes a sensation may be properly known by that term, and this is shown conclusively by his own occasional sermons that make sensations, one of which has been specifically referred to above. He holds very pronounced views as to tho duty of the citizen at the ballot box and believes that when all good men go to tho polls at every election, if that time ever comes, thorough and permanent reform will be practically accomplished.

Bishop Potter holds strong and well defined views upon tho duty of the clergymen of his church toward that organization. In a charge which he delivered to tho clergymen of his diocese three or four years ago he made clear to them just what his views are upon this and other subjects of vital importance to Episcopalians. This document was issued during one of the earlier periods of exc'.toment over the liberalism of Professor Briggs of the Union Theological seminary and its bearing upon tho Presbyterian church. The Briggs excitement had brought about very general discussion of the essentials of belief not only among his own denomination, but also among communicants of other churches, including the Episcopal.

The first point brought out by this charge of the bishop was that the clergy lie under different obligations to their church than do the laity. When ordained, they are sworn to teach "the doctrine of Christ as this church hath received the same, and the bishop said the notion that after such an engagement they are at liberty to renounce the doctrines of the ohurch and yet oontlnue to hoid place and emoluments to which they are entitled only by reason of that promise is "an immoral one." If a clergyman concludes that he can no longer continue the propagation Of the faith "as received" by him, there Is no course left to him but withdrawal from his clerical position. At the same time tbe bishop was very careful to draw a clear distinction between vital matters of faith and matters of opinion, articles of belief and personal views of those articles which musk necessarily differ in the bases of different men. No clergyman is at liberty to deny the divine inspiration of the Scriptures, but every clergyman frankly accepting the reality of inspiration is at liberty to hold any theory concerning it whloh commends itself to his conscientious Judgment.

In illustration of this point he said concerning the since deceased Phillips Brooks of Boston, who was made a bishop before his death, that because such a man as Or. Brooks did not fully Indorse the doctrine of the apostolic suooession was no reason whatever for tbe believers therein to deny him any of the rights, privileges or courtesies that should be extended to any Bplsoopal clergyman of approved doctrine and good standing. Indeed Bishop Potter went further. He said that to suggest that such a man be excluded from even the highest office of the ohurch for any such nonessential difference of belief was a piece of "partisan insolence." Throughout the whole of this charge Bishop Potter showed himself to be an extremely broad and strong man. It was called out by certain tendencies displayed by various Episoopal clergymen of New York and probably fostered by the fight against Dr. Briggs to' prosecute one another because of differences of opinion, and it not only added greatly to the bishop's prestige as a well balanced ecclesiastic, but It reduced immensely the differences in the Episcopal ohurch in New York.

Bishop Potter'sdetermination to personally help In work among the poor of New York will undoubtedly prove a great stimulant to suoh work on {fee part of the Episcopal clergymen in the future and is therefore greatly to be commended for its Aeniuftl and

"I'm not abetting man," answered the doctor, "but I rather think that the odds are in favor of your going."

The admiral had hardly got home and had just seated himself in his dining room when the attack upon him was renewed. lie was slowly and lovingly unfolding Tho Times preparatory to the long read which led up to luncheon, and had even got so far as to fasten his golden pince-nez 011 to his thin, high bridged nose, when ho heard a scrunching of gravel, and looking over the top of his paper saw Mrs. Westmacott coming up the garden walk. She was still dressed in the singular costume which offended the sailor's old fashioned notions of propriety, but he could not deny as he looked at her that she was a very fine woman. In many climes he had looked upon women of all shades and ages, but never upon a more clear cut, handsome face, nor a more erect, supple and womanly figure. He ceased to glower as he gazed upon her, and the frown was smoothed away from his rugged brow. "May I come in?" said she, framing herself in the open window, with a background of greensward and blue sky. "1 feel like an invader deep in an enemy's country." "It is a very welcome invasion, ma'am," said he, clearing his throat and pulling at his collar. "Try this garden chair. What is there that I can do for you? Shall 1 ring and let Mrs. Denver know that you are here?" "Pray do not trouble, admiral. I only looked in with reference to our little chat this morning. I wish that you would give us your powerful support at our coming meeting for the improvement of the condition of woman." "No, ma'am. I can't do that." Ho pursed up his lips and shook his grizzled head. "And why not?" "Against my principles, ma'am." "But why?" "Because woman has her duties, and man has his. I may be old fashioned, but that is my view. Why, what is the world coming to? I was saying to Dr. Walker only last night that we shall have a woman wanting to command the Channel fleet next." "That is one of the few professions which cannot be improved," said Mrs. Westmacot't, with her sweetest smile. "Poor woman must still look to man for protection." "I don't like those new fangled ideas, ma'am. I tell you honestly that I don't. I like discipline, and I think every one is the better for it. Women have got a great deal which they had not in the days of our fathers. They have universities all for themselves, I am told, and there are women doctors, I hear. Surely they should rest contented. What more can they want?" "You area sailor, and sailors are always chivalrous. If you could see how things really, are you would change your opinion. What are the poor things to do? There are so many of them and so few things to which they can turn their hands. Governesses? Btit there are hardly any situations. Music and drawing? There is not one in fifty who has any special talent in that direction. Medicine? It is still surrounded with difficulties for women, and it takes -many years and a small fortune to qualify. Nursing? It is hard work ill paid, and none but the strongest can stand it. What would you have them do then, admiral? Sit down and starve?" "Tut, tut!- It is not BO bad as that." "The pressure is terrible. Advertise for a lady companion at 10 shillings a week, which is less than a cook's wage, and see how many answers you get. There is no hope, no outlook, for these struggling thousands. Life is a du1\ sordid struggle, leading down to a cheerless old age. Yet when we try to bring some little ray of hope, some chance, however distant, of something better we are told by chivalrous gentlemen that it is against their principles to help."

The admiral winced, but shook his head in dissent.

—mere are Dannng, tne law, veterinary turgery, government offices, the civil serfice, all these at least should be thrown freely open to women if they have brains enough so compete successfully for them. Then if woman were unsuccessful it would be her own fault, and the majority of the population of this country could no longer complain that they live under a different law from the minority, and that they are held down in poverty and serfdom, with every road to independence sealed to them." "What would you propose to do, ma'am?" "To set the more obvious injustices right, and so to pave the Way for a reform. Now, look at that man digging in the field. I know him. He can neither read nor write, he is steeped in whisky, and he has as mnch intelligence as the potatoes that he is digging. Yet the man has a vote, can possibly turn the soale of an election and may help to decide the policy of this empire. Now, to take the nearest example, here am I, a woman who has had. some dncation,who has traveled, and who haa seen and studied the institutions of many countries. I hold considerable property, and I pay more in imperial taxes than that man spends in whisky, which 1B saying a great deal, and yet I have no moredirect influence upon the disposal of the money which I pay than that fly which creeps along the walL Is that light? Is it fair?"

tion. Yet it" there was ji question of legislation upon which all the women were agreed upon one side and all the men upon the other, it would appear that the matter was settled unanimously when more than half the population were opposed to it. Is that right?"

Again the admiral v.*ri yle(L It was very awkward for the gallant seaman to have a handsome woman opposite to him bombarding him with questions to none of which he could find an answer. "Couldn't even get the tompions out of his guns," as he explained the matter to the doctor that evening. "Now, those are really the points that we shall lay stress upon at the meeting. The free and complete opening of the professions. the final abolition of the zenana, I call it, and the franchise to all omen who pay queen's taxes above a certain sum. Surely there is nothing unreasonable in that—nothing which could offend your principles. We shall have medicine, law and the church, all rallying that night for the protection of woman.

la the navy to be the one profession ab-

sent?" The admiral jumped out of his chair with an evil word in his throat. "There, there, ma'am," he cried. "Drop it for a time. 1 have heard enough. You've turned me a point or two. I won't deny it. But let it stand at that. I will think it over." "Certainly, admiral. We would not hurry you in your decision. But we still hope to see you on our platform." She rose and moved about in her lounging masculine fashion from one picture to another, for the walls were thickly covered with reminiscences of the admiral's voyages. "Hullo!" said she. "Surely this ship would have furled all her lower canvas and reefed her topsails if she found herself on alee shore with the wind on her quarter." "Of course she would. The artist was never past Gravesend, I swear. It's the Penelope as she was on the 14th of June, 1857, in the throat of the straits of Banca, with the island of Banca on the starboard bow and Sumatra on the port. He painted from description, but of course, as you very sensibly say, all was snug below, and she carried stormsails and double reefed topsails, for it was blowing a cyclone from the sou'east. I compliment you, ma'am, I do indeed!" "Oh, I have done a little sailoring myself—as much as a woman can aspire to. you know. This is the bay of Funchal. What a lovely frigate!" "Lovely, you say! Ah, she was lovely! That is the Andromeda. I was a mate aboard of her—sublieutenant they call it now, though I like the old name best." "What a lovely rake her masts have, and what a curve to her bowsl She must have been a clipper."

The old sailor rubbed his hands, and his eyes glistened. His old ships bordered close upon his wife and his son in his affection. "I know Funchal," said the lady carelessly. "A couple of years ago I had a 7-ton cutter rigged yacht, the Banshee, and we ran over to Madeira from Falmouth." "You, ma'am, in a 7-tonner?" "With a couple of Cornish lads for a crew. Oh, it was glorious! A fortnight right out in the open, with no worries, no letters, no callers, no petty thoughts, nothing but the grand works of God. the tossing sea and the great silent y.

The old sailor was too transported with sympathy to say a word. He could only shake her broad muscular hand. She was half way d6wn the garden path before she heard him calling her and saw his grizzled head and weather stained face looking out from behind the curtains. "You may put me down for the platform," he cried and vanished abashed behind the curtain of his Times, where his wife found him at lunchtime. "1 hear that you have had quite along chat with Mrs. Westmacott," said she. "Yes, and I think that she is one of the most sensible women that I ever knew." "Except on the woman's rights question, of course." "Oh, 1 don't know. She has a good deal to say for herself on that also. In fact, mother, I have token a platform ticket for hermeeting."

The question was so sudden and unex- VjL pected that Clara gave quite a jump in-' i-' her chair. "I—I—I hardly ever have thought of jrour nephew Charles." ,, "No? Oh, you must think him weft,v,f over, for Iwant to speak to you about hiin." "To me? But why?" "It seemed to me most delicate. Yoxr ,-4 see, Clara, the matter stands in this way. "jy It is quite possible that I may soon find?'-^ myself in a completely new sphere otf^|j life, which will involve fresh duties and-,'^| make it impossible for me to keep up household which Charles can share."

Clara stared. Did this mean that she^J was about to marry again? What else could it point to? "Therefore Charles must have a house* hold of his own. That is obvious. Now, 1 don't approve of bachelor establish*' ments. Do you?" "Really, Mrs. Westmacott, 1 havenever thought of the matter." "Oh, you little sly puss! Was there ever a girl who never thought of thflP matter? 1 think that a young man ot six and twenty ought to be married."

Clara felt very uncomfortable. Th» awful thought had come upon her that this embassadress had come to her as a proxy with a proposal of marriage. But how could that be? She had not spokw more than three or four times with her nephew and knew nothing more of him than he had told her on the evening before. It was impossible then. And yet what could his aunt mean by this discussion of his private affairs? "Do you not think yonrself," she per* sisted. "that a young man of six anI twenty is better married?'"1 should think that he is old enough to decide for himself." "Yes, yes. He ,hro» done so.

cnangeu. wo neign uoring 1 amines, CUO Winslows from Anerley and the Cumberbatches from Gypsy Hill, had been invited to tennis by Mrs. Westmacott, and the lawn was gay in the evening with the blazers of the young men and the bright dresses of the girls. To the older people sitting round in their wicker work garden chairs the darting, stooping, epriuging vvliite figures, the sweep of skirts and twinkle of canvas shoes, the click of the rackets and sharp whiz of the balls, with the continual "fifteen love, fifteen ail!" of the marker, made up a merry and exhilarating scene. To seetheir sons and daughters so flushed and healthy and happy gave them also a reflected glow, and it was hard to say who had most pleasure from the game, those who played or those who watched.

Mrs. Westmacott had just finished a set when she caught a glimpse of ClaraWalker sitting alone at the farther end of the ground. She ran down the court, cleared the net to the amazement of th»

Clara's reserved and refined nature shrank somewhat from the boisterous frankness and strange manners of the widow, and yet her feminine instinct told her that beneath all her peculiarities there lay much that was good and noble. She smiled up at her, therefore. and nodded a greeting.
