of fraternal forces, and aiming at the I destruction of differing doctrines and disciples. The new order stands not for any church, small or mighty, as being the possessor of all truth, all Ufa and the only way, but for the hope of answering the prayer of the master of all by those of every persuasion, shibboleth and sign "That we may all be one," In the Christianization of our America as of the world.

MADAME NORDICA The many thousands of admirers of Madame Kordica's consummate vocal art would be surprised to know tlio first remuneration which 6he received from music was not for singing, but for refraining from doing so. The overflowing good nature of Mme. Nordica's early years was as marked as now, but instead of being characterized as "charming and magnetic personality," etc., etc. it was called incorrigibility," and Nordica was knows as a "little devil." a good natured little aforesaid, but a very pronounced typo. The story as told by Mme. Nordica herself runs as follows: When a young girl growing up to womanhood, in the forest of Maine, she had two older sisters who sang. The young Lillian was too small and unimportant to study music, but born with talent, she used to bother these sisters by learning the songs before they did. Finally in despair, they paid her to leave their sons alone. The fee was only a quarter, but It looked bis enough in those days to secure silence. That bribe was her first Incentive to a musical career. She argued that if she were paid for not singing, there might come a time when sho would be paid for singing, and so she began to nurse an ambition. A few years later found her an earnest student in the Boston conservatory. And then Mme. Tltiens came to Boston to sing in opera. Nordica found out the name of her hotel and went to see her and resolved to sing to her It she would hear her. She was at first refused. "Madam never receives anyone tho day that she sings and she sings to night," said the Madam's maid. Not to be repulsed, Nordica sent a second request, saying she wished to sing to her and begging Madam TI tien's judgment of her voice. She wu so importunate that she was finally re ceived and hearing that Titien was tc cing in "II Trovatore," that night, promptly produced Leonora's arie "Tacea le hotto," and, accompanying herself, sang the aria to a finish. Titien was at first provoked by her audacity, but as the young girl proceeded she became more and more in terested in ber beautiful voice and dramatic delivery, and at the close of the airia took both her hands in her own and thanked her for the pleasure she had given her. Then apologizing for her inability to talk before singing, in vited her to hear the same music at the opera that evening and told her to bo sure to come to her dressing room after the performance. Of course Nordica went and was pre sented by Titiens to Mme. Maretsek with these words: "I said nothing to you this afternoon, but I have arrange I to place yon under this lady's care for two years' study. In less than a month Nordica and ber mother found themsolves in New York, where Mme. Maretzek prepare! the singer of "Tacea le notte," for the operatic stage.

VithHcartTreiiib -Dr. Miles Heart Remedy has cured me of heart disease of over 20 years standing-. I was , so bad that I could not do my work, and could scarcely draw a full breath without fainting or smothering. The doctor told me he could do no more for me; then I commenced taking the Heart Remedy. I shall never forget that night. I slept better than I had before in months. I kept right on getting better, until I was perfectly well. MRS. LAURA RUSSELL, Logan, Iowa. When the heart action is weak, it fails to pump the blood through the lungs with sufficient rapidity. Then the lungs do not absorb the proper amount of oxygen, although they may be taking in a normal amount of air. The result is shortness of breath, smothering spells, difficult breathing, oppressed feeling in chest. Dr. Miles' Heart Remedy strengthens the hearty nerves and muscles, and in this way, increases the circulation. Get a bottle from your druggist. Take it according to directions, and if it does not benefit he will return your money.
