\W [/ Ww The tripping feet—the sparkling eye—the graceful movement—belong not alone to the buddingmaiden. These graces are the right—aye duty of every woman until the hair whitens —and regal dignity replaces them. The mother who guards her strength has so much more to devote to the care and education of her dear ones. She should be a comfort —a cheer —always. Yet how many feel that they have the strength to properly balance the home ? The world is listless, weary and morbid. Its blood moves sluggishly and is full of impurities. It needs a kindling, invigorating tonic to set it afire—it needs Pe-ru-na, THE ONE MEDICINE in the world which women may rely upon positively. Pe-ru-na is good for everyone, but particularly for women. The various weaknesses which afflict their delicate organism spring from inflammation or catarrh of the mucous lining,and Pe-ru-na is a specific for catarrh in any organ of the body. Any congestion of a mucous membrane simply means catarrh of the organ affected. This is why Pe-ru-na cures all sorts of troubles where other remedies fail. If there is a catarrhal affection the matter with you anywhere Pe-ru-na will cure you.

NINE LIVES LOST.

Terrible Collision on the Grand Rnpide and Indiana Kailroad. The most terrible wreck in the history of Grand Itapids and Indiana Railroad occurred about 5 a. m. Wednesday at Pierson, twenty-nine miles north of Grand Rapids. The north-bound northland express collided head-cn with passenger train No. 2. Nine lives were lost and many passengers were injured, some severely. Both engines and the baggage cars were demolished. When the trains met day was just dawning and the fog was so thick that the engineers could not see more than 100 yards ahead. The trains were to hnvepassed at Sand Lake, two miles south of Pierson. No. 2 was evidently late, and was trying to make the siding at Pierson. The northland express had the right of way and was scurrying along at nearly full speed. Either the engineers blundered in their orders or were unable to see signals on account of the fog. The engineers and firemen of both trains were reported killed, ns well as five other persons. The express train was made up largely of Pullman cars and was the finest train on the road. It carried the Grand Rapids coach, a day coach, several sleepers from Cincinnati and the South, a buffet-breakfast enr and the baggage cars.

CHURCH AND CLERGY.

Theodore Roosevelt belongs to the Dutch Reformed Church. The Catholic Truth Society in England has restored the tomb of Cardinal Pole. The directors of the Michigan Advocate (Methodist) have declared a dividend to the conferences of $4,500. Rabbi Max Heller of New Orleans has started a museum for the collection and preservation of articles used in ancient Jewish worship. Under the leadership of Rabbi IT. L, Mayor, the Jewish charity organizations of Kansas City are to be federated and a home for the aged erected. A chapel is to be erected in Leicester, England, as a memorial to the Rev.‘Robert HuU, who was pastor of the Harvey Laay (’hapel from 1807 to 1820. It will cost about $55,000. Sister Mary Joseph, one of the founders of the Order of the Incarnate Word, died recently nt Galveston, Toxas; She was Lucine Roussin, and entered the convent at Lyons, France, thirty-four years ago. The Rev. J. M. Rodwell, who has died in Engl ami at the age of 05, was a distinguished Orientalist. He translated the Koran forty years ago, arranging the Buras in chronological order. He also published translations of the Book of Job and of Isaiah. The total receipts of the Methodist Foreign Missionary Society for the last year were $1,370,300.07, which is the largest amount ever paid into the treasury in one year. A Benedictine priest at Maria Stein, Switzerland, was recently elected it deputy to the Grand Council of the Canton of Soletrtv. It is the first time a monk became n member of that assembly. The Rev. Dr. Joseph Parker of London is the author of over forty volumes of sermons, novels and essays, and now that he is past 70 years of age he is writing a book fitted especially for ministers.

Warning in Biblical Signa.

There is a restaurant on North Clark street where a specialty is made of scrlptliMl texts. The walls are placarded with Inscriptions, and no matter how tough the pies may be the advice framed and hanging on the walls and in the widows is pretty good. The text# ifre changed every day, and there Is a great deal of variety in the reading patter displayed. A few days ago a conspicuous placard in- the window announced: “In God is our trust.” Just below it bung the sign. “All customers must pay cash.” A few days after that the proprietor treated his patrons to an invitation and a warning. It was all the more comical because he had left out the word “for” in his quotation: “Best pies 10 cents.” “Eat, drink atad be merry. “To-morrow you may die.”—Chlcagj Inter Ocean.

Origin of Greenhouses.

William Watson, of Kew, says that the first greenhouse erected In England was in the Apothecaries’ Garden at Chelsea in 1684. ; It merely bad glass ■ides, and was heated by a kind of oven. In 1717 a glass-roofed bouse was built by the Duke of Rutland at Belvoir Castle for foreign grapes, heated by furnaces placed under the floor of the house. Steam was first used In 1788, and hot water soon afterward was applied to a small house In the Jardin des Plantes at Paris.—Meehan’s Monthly.

Manufacture of Mummies.

Several enterprising French citizens are now extensively engaged in the manufacture of mummies, which they are shipping to all parts of the civilized world. They closely resemble the genuine dried up cadavers they are represented to be, but It is not likely that first-class antiquarians will be caught napping and accept them as descendants of the kings, nobles and citizens generally of the ancient lands the mummy merchants represent them to be.

Passing of the Horse.

So soon as nature sees an improvement there is a change. The caudle gave way to electricity and the horse to the automobile. The fact that Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters has been sold for over half a century, proves its value. There is nothing to equal it for stomach or liver trouble. Be sure to give it a trial.

A Virginia Blue Law.

The old blue laws of colonial New England were severe enough, but here is one drawn up for the government of the colony of Virginia in 1612, eight years before the Pilgrims lauded at Plymouth Rock: “It is ordained that no man blaspheme God's holy name upon paine of death. That no man speak impiously or maliciously agafhst the holy and blessed Trinitle or against the knowne Articles of the Christian faith, upon paine of death. Every man and woman duty twice a day upon the first towling of the bell shall upon working dayes repalre unto the church to hear divine Service, upon paine of losing his or her daye’s allowance for the first omission, for the second to be whipt, and for the third to be condemned to the Gallies for six Moneths.”

CONFESSIONAL INVIOLABILITY.

French Priest Fined for Revealing Secrets Confided to Him. A case recently decided by the Ninth Chamber of the Civil Court of the Seine would have served Boccaccio’s turn admirably. The matter, however romantic, Is nevertheless a very serious one, especially to certain sections of the community, for It concerns nothing less than the inviolability of the confessional. By the legal tribunal above nailed, the Abbe Breton, vlcalre of the Cathedral of Meaux, was fined 200 f, and costs for having betrayed secrets confided to him in his character of confessor. Fact is a thousand times stranger than fiction, and never, surely, had the grave lawyers of the bar a more curious case brought before them. The story Is briefly this: Pere Elisee, an exFranciscan monk, while still within the pale of orthodoxy, had once a quarter of an hour’s Interview with a young lady, Mille. L., In a convent parlor, her brother and sister being present. It was a case of love at first sight. The pair never met again, but entered Into correspondence, we gather, of an innocent but sentimental nature. After a time Mllle. L. grew uneasy, and her confessor, the said Abbe, being absent, she poured out tier heart to him in writing, of course under the pledge of secrecy. She was bidden to hand over to him the whole of the tender missives, which were straightway handed over to his superiors. Then followed a veritable earthquake. ' The case for the defense was based upon the fact that the young lady’s confidence had been given In writing, and to the Abbe In bls capacity of friend rather than of priest. view the court would not entertain for a moment, holding that the role of confessor Is not confined to the confessional box. Laws, moreover, alike ecclesiastical and civil, were adduced In point; according to the “Constitution” of Pope Benedict XIV. H 745), any priest violating the secrecy of the confessional -is suspended from his functions. The civil law on the subject of secrets confided professionally, whether to priest or laymen, Is still more categorical. By no consideration of Interest, public or private, is the violation of such secrecy held excusable.—London News. About thirty cities In Wisconsin are supplied with water from artesian wells. 7
