It consists of three parts of salicylic acid, ten parts of starch and eighty sewen parts of pulverized soapstone. This keeps the feet dry, prevents chaf¬ ing and heals any sore spots.

A coasting steamer was wrecked near Sydney, X. S. W. The captain tied life¬ lines to some pigs which formed part of the cargo. These on being thrown over hoard quickly swam ashore, taking the lines with them. Communication be¬ ing thus established, every person on board was rescued. MRS.

I could not stand hut a few minutes at a time. When I commenced taking your med¬ icine I could not sit up half a day, but before I had used, half a bottle I was up and helped about my work. I have taken three bottles of Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound and used one package of Sanative W ash, and am cured of all my troubles. I feel like a new woman. I can do all kinds of housework and feel stronger than I ever did in my life. I now weigh 131 14 pounds. Before using your medicine I weighed only 108 pounds.

Miss Sawyer, who is poor, was in¬ troduced at a lunch party to Miss Tay¬ lor, who is rich, and was coldly re¬ ceived. Miss Sawyer is bright and ■knows her own antecedents, and Miss Taylor’s also. She was unabashed, and spoke cheerily: “I’m so glad to meet you. I’ve of¬ ten wanted to.

It was not necessary for all clerics to keep up appearances, but just fancy ministers of the Gospel, who 'had been educated in universities, having 1o subsist upon something like $250 or $300 a yar! Many people would not think of paying such a sum to their coachmen or gardeners.” The Archbishop of Canterbury, who " as among the speakers, stated that ‘here were U.oDO benefices in tins (:,,uiltr y> °f which 0,000 were under ;l year- Out of the 0,000 about 4,600 had an average income of $0.»0 il veilr ’ wbiU ‘ llu * remaining 1,400 had ■ only $325, although they had most im¬ portant work to perform. A few years ago these incomes were larger, But the rent of land had fallen, in some cases fifty per cent., and titles about thirty per cent. People insisted that their clergymen should be educated gentlemen, who had, consequently, to spend a good deal upon their training. They were also required to have tlikt culture which would enable them to enter any society. So more serious complaint could he made against! a clergyman than that lie was not a gen¬ tleman. But if the community wan¬ h ted gentlemen, it should pay tiiem s such. lie therefore appealed to the laity for more liberality to the fund. Resolutions were agreed to, strongly commending it to public support!— Russia Hoarding Gold. Financiers want to know why Rus¬ sia is accumulating such an immense store of gold, and certainly the ques tiori is not without interest to the poli¬ tician. A huge gold reserve implies that, a great war wiii not lack the necessary sinews. Why should Rus¬ sia, who already possesses a larger stock of gold than any other govern ment, keep on adding to her store of the precious com. It is two years since site began her accumulations, and apparently she has no intention of stopping them, for the latest arrival of gold from the Cape has been wholly purchased for Russian account. Yet, with a stock on hand already reckoned at $000,000,000. the need for tliis pur chase is not very apparent. A signifi ,.anr feature of the ease is that when pvf . r notice is called to these Russian g f> j,| pureiiases they cease for it while, )>n ly to be resumed as soon as public attention is turned another way.- Sot tingham (Englatidi Guardian.

A Russian Admirer of Emerson. Ambassador Andrew D. White has an article in the Century on “A Russian Statesman.” Mr. White says: But the most curious—indeed, the most amazing—revelation of the man 1 found in his love for American liter¬ ature. He is a wide reader, and in the whole breadth of his reading American authors were evidently among those he preferred. Of these Hawthorne, Low¬ ell, and, above all, Emerson, were his, favorites. Curious, indeed, was It to learn that this “arch persecutor,” this "Torquemada of the nineteenth cen¬ tury,” this man whose hand Is espe¬ cially heavy upon Catholics and Prot¬ estants and dissenters throughout tho empire, whose name Is spoken with ab¬ horrence by millions, within the empire and without it, still reads as his fa¬ vorite author the philosopher of Con¬ cord! lie told me that the first book which ho ever translated into Russian was Thomas a Kempis' “Imitation of Christ;” and of that he gave me the Latin original from which he had made his translation, with a copy of the translation itself. He also told me that the next hook which he translated was a volume of Emerson's essays; and he added that for years there had always lain upon ids study table a volume of Emerson's writings.—Century. of r.
