SPEECH AT METHODIST JUBILEE \J would rather preeerve the health o f a nation than to be tie ruler.\—Munvon. This motto, written by Prof. Munyon about sixteen years ego, was the real cor nerstone of his medicine business. He felt that the people of the nation were neglect ing their health owing to lack of money. With the one thought in view of helping humanity, he started in the medicine bual- toeae, paying large eume of money to emi nent spedaliata for known and tried for- as that were known fo have been sue- 5- curing diseases. After carefully ing these formulae and putting them up in a marketable condition, he offered them to the public for a few pen nies, easily within the reach of the poorest family. He hired eminent specialists at large salaries and offered their servicee ab solutely free to the public to diagnose their cases and advise them what remedies to take. After giving the public all these benefits he was still unsatisfied and offered further to those who were not in reach of the offices which he estai the country; he advertw write to hie specialiate for ami nation, ana to-day Prof. Munyi following out this policy, and whenever he bears of a new drug or a new formula that ie more effective than thoee that he is at the time compounding, he purchaaee them regardless of coat. Prof. Munyon puts up a separate cure for almost every ill, and these remedies can be had at all aruggiste, mostly 25 cents a bot tle. In taking tbeae remedies, you are tak ing whgt might be called a sure thing, for he guarantees them to produce satisfactory results or he will refund our money. Thie is a remarkable man and a remarkable in stitution, manifestly fair to all, and a firm well recommended. Prof. Munyon’a address is »3rd and Jef ferson 8ta.. Pniladelphia. Pa. Old British Institutions. In one of those graceful and felic itous speeches for which his name la everywhere celebrated Lord Rosebery acknowledged recently his admis sion tiy the Skinners’ Company by discussing the institutions of the countryL There are many whe spend their lives In attacking the ancient traditions and the political and social establishments oY Britain. Their work Is ineffective; they do not realize the strength of the Institu tions which they have marked down for destruction, nor do they under stand that those very Institutions In which they see no good are really of great,advantage. They are sincere In thelri* opposition, but they are nevertheless fighting the ajr. The life of a, politician Is short. The life of an Institution Is long. The one has certain Inevitable bounds; the other n^ed have none so long as It adapts Itself to the changing needs of the day. If It does not. If It shows no signs of progress or of usefulness It dies; but It dies not from outside attacks, but from senile decay and atrophy. As an example of vigorous life and adaptability the City Livery Companies stand as a foremost ex ample. They have long outlived their original alms and objects, but they survive and will, continue to survive because they have found other spheres of usefulness , and the benefit of their work is cordially recognized by the country at large.— London Globe.

After Nine Weeks the Jury Reached * Verdict in One Hour and Forty Minutes— Fleet Conviction Under Ten Years’ Old Law. New York City.— The American Ice Company—the Ice Trust— was found guilty in the Criminal Branch of the Supreme Court of violating the anti- monopoly law of this State. It was the first conviction, under the provis ions of the Donnelly act, which was passed In 1898 and took effect In Iggg—ten years ago. And It was, by a coincidence, the third—the lucky third—attempt to punish the Ameri can ‘Ice Company under that -act. Twice before the charges were laid before the Grand Jury, once under Jerome, but no Indictments were found and an appeal was taken. The American Ice Company's con viction was on two of the three counts of the Indictment: First—\For doing an act pursuant to and In and toward and for the con summation of an arrangement where by competition” In the product and sale of Ice “was or might have been restrained or prevented.\ Third— \An attempt to create a monopoly, and of doing acts for the consummation thereof.” The second count in the indictment, which was thrown out by Justice Wheeler In his charge to the jury, charged the Ice company with making or attempting to make the alleged Il legal \arrangem ent’’ at the time of Its Incorporation. That was In the period outlawed by the statute of lim itations, which shielded everything done by the trust prior to two years of the time of Its Indictment. It took the jury an hour and forty minutes to return the verdict. The court Imposed the maximum penalty—a $5000 fine. There could be no sentence of Imprisonment, be cause the company was Indicted as a corporation. In addressing the jury, Prosecuting Attorney Osborne said: “They drove out every solitary dealer they could with the exception of a blind man. One of their man agers, Winsch, said he would put out of buslnesa the lame and the halt and that he would be ‘blamed’ If he would put out a blind man. They de stroyed these small dealers, every one that they could, nf>t only by force, but by teaching as well, j “This prosecution Is the first, the pioneer prosecution brought under this anti-monopoly law, though It has been on the statute book since 1899. Every day since then has been some- I-one else’s day except the people’s. I have myself seen these things going on from year to year and have longed , for the day that It could be put be- i fore a jury. Your verdict In this case ! Is going to make history. It will be another declaration of Independence, and will teach the lesson of hope to men who would be Independent In business If they could.\ Justlpe Wheeler said after the ver dict that It would be impossible to predict accurately the result that would follow the Imposition of the fine. “I regret that I could not make the penalty more,\ he said, “but other things may be looked for. I believe that the conviction will have a health ful effect and serve as a warning to similar offenders. I understand that there is a civil suit now pending be fore the Appellate Division, In which Is Involved the license of the Amer ican to do business in this 8tate, and this verdict may justify the Execu tive in revoking that license without more ado. Mr. Stanehfleld himself told the jury that a conviction would mean the death of the company and an Irreparable Injury to Its many stockholders.\ The railway station of Braga 11a (Serrla) la so infested with snakes that special precautions are taken when trains stop there to prevent the reptiles from entering the compart ments.

Taft has broken the Presidential record of “doing New York\ and he had a late start, too. He invaded the Bowery as the first Chief Executive of this country who has delivered an address in that ter ritory. He made a speech at the Bowery Mission, which\ was crowded to the doors, despite the lateness of the hour and the driving rain, with the poor and unemployed. As the President appeared J. G. Hallimond, In charge of the meeting, called for three cheers for the Presi dent.^ These were given with a will, but appeared faint when “three Bow ery cheers\ were called for and given. He said: “I am glad to be here If by being here and by saying so I can convince i you that the so-called chasm between you and people who seem for the time to be more fortunate than you is not ' a chasm, and that there is between j them and you a deep feeling of sym pathy and a deep, earnest desire that ' you shall have that equality, that means of getting on your feet, of sup porting your family and of earning your livelihood that we hope every man under the Stars and Stripes may enjoy.\ The President was at Carnegie Hall to address a mass meeting arranged by the officials of the Methodist Church In celebration of the diamond jubilee of the Methodist Episcopal missions In Africa. He made the ad dress, which was warmly received. He said, In part: “ Since J have had the honor to oc cupy pubnc office, it has fallen to me to address meetings of many different churches, and I always seize the op portunity when invited to any other church than my own, and I hope I do not leave out my own because I like to feel and imbibe In my nature the sense of tolerance and the Increase In feelings of the Fatherhood of God and the brotherhood of man among all the denominations of the churches. \And my own reception makes me feel certain of the growing and wide catholicity of the Christian Church. Perhaps it Is because, doubtless it Is because, I was no$ aroused to the im- porftance of the missionary spirit and the great things that were being done years ago that it seemk to me that it Is only within recent times that this missionary feeling has taken such a hold upon the people. “I have observed that each man dates the spread of public opinion oo a particular subject from the time that he began to think of it. But the history of our country does not offer a date and an epoch when It seems to me we people of the United States acquired a wider and a world feeling and an interest and a responsibility for all the people of the world as dis tinguished from those that enjoy our opportunities of living under the Stars and Stripes.\ Speaking of foreign affairs the President says: \It is not perhaps appropriate to date a religious movement from a war, but It does seem to. me as if our people acquired a world feeling from the. time we undertook the responsi bility of freeing Cuba and saying what should be done by ouy neighbors with reference to internal govern ment when that internal government seemed to us to pass the bound of what we thought to be civilization. “We are a great power in the world, and we may be—and I hope we are a great power for usefulness VITALIZER RESTORES LOST POWERS.

Driven F a r by Storm. I Driven by the wind over an ocean and half a continent, a West Indian heron fell Into the yard of James E. Davis, 143 3 C la^atreet. The heron, It la thought, carried from an | Island In the West Indies by the hur- 1 rlcane that swept the South recently, and the edge .of which hit Cincin nati. The bird was ethasted when It fell Into Davis’ yard, and lay on Its back for some time before It was dis covered. | Davis carried the bird Into his home, warmed It and fed it, and as soon as It was revived It struggled desperately to be gone again. Davis says ho will keep the bird. The Nat ural History Society pronounced It to be a fine specimen of the West Indian heron. Its colors are green and brown, It has a beak three Inches long, and when 'It takes the kinks out of Its neck that part of Its body Is about two feet long.

Eczema For a Year—Got No Relief Even a t Skin Hospital— In llespalr Until Cuticur* Cured Him. “I waa troubled by a severe itching and dry, scurfy akin on my ankles, feet, arms and scalp. Scratching made it worse. Thousands of small red pimples formed and these caused intense itching. I was ( advised to go to the hospital for disease# of the skin. I did so, the chief surgeon saying: T never saw such a had case of eczema.’ But I got little or no relief. Then I tried many so-called remedies, but I became so bad that I almost gave up in despair. After suffering agonies for twelve months, I was relieved of the almost un bearable itching after Avo or three applica tions of Cuticura Ointment. I continued its use, combined with Cuticura Soap and Pills, and I was completely cured. Henry Bearle, Cross St., Little Rock, Ark., Oct. 8 and 19, 1907.” Potter Drug & Chem.
