ALM MAAR
DEFINITION OF A DIOCESE.
When the Right Rev. Ethelbert Tal-
bot, Bishop of Central Pennsylvania, was
in London not long ago his fame as the
"cowboy bishop" broughtthousands of
young boys and girls to hear him speak
wherever he went. In one of his talks
to the youngsters, he held them spell-
bound by telling them of his diocese in
Wyoming, which was more thickly pop-
ulated in the old days with bears and
Indians than with Christians.
When he was finished with his descrip-
tion, he asked the children .if anyone
knew what a diocese was. One boy
promptly raised his hand.
"What is it, my lad?"
"A diocese, my lord, is a body of land
with a bishop on top and the clergy un-
derneath," was the answer."—Philadel-
phia Ledger.
THE ONLY WAY
TO GOOD HEALTH
Is to Keep the Bleed Rich, Red
and Pure by Us7ng Dr. Williams'
Pink Piiis.
The only way for every girl and wo-
man to be well and at her best is to
keep her blood. rich and red and pure.
Impure, weak blood is the cause of the
wretched feeling of languor and faint-
ness, pains in the back and sides, head-
aches and all those other indescribable
sufferings which makes the lives of so
many growing girls and women a daily
torture. There is only one sure way to
be well, and that is through. the tonna
treatment supplied by Dr. Williams'
link Pills for Pale . People. These
leills actually make the new, rich
blood which growing girls and wo-
men need to make then well and
keep them well. Thousands of moth-
ers and their daughters have found
an effectual cure for anaemia, general
weakness, indigestion, palpitation,
nervous disorders. skin troubles and
other ailments in Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills. Mrs. J. C. ala ees, Brenton,
N. S., says: "Last spring and sam-
mer my daughter's health gave out.
She had no energy, was very pale
and nervous, and had no appetite.
As the usual remedies gi en in such
cases did not help her, we became
much alarmed, and ,,.o zue advice of
a neighbor began giving her Dr. Wil-
liams' Pink 'ills. We could soon see
an improvement, and as she cont`seied
to take the Pills she gained in weight
and vigor; her color returned and her
whole system seemed to be built up
again. She is now the piety re of health
and joins in recommending :)r. Williams'
Pink Pills"
These Pills are sold by all medicine
dealers or will be seat by mail at 50

WHY NOT SPLIT TIIE DIFFERENCE?
A cook informed ber Boston mistress
that she was apt to be married. The
mistress was genuinely sorry, says
Judge, as the woman was a good cook
and steady. Time passed, however, with-
out further word of leasing, though the
happy -man -to -be was a frequent caller
in the kitchen. The other day the mis-
tress was moved by curiosity to ask:
"When are you to be married, Nora?"
"Indade, an' it's niver at all, I'll be
thinkin', mum," was the sad reply.
"Really? What is the trouble?"
"'Tis thus, mum. I won't marry Mike
when he's drunk, an' when he's sober he
won't marry mei"

NO GOLDEN SPIKES IN THIS.
Yet It Was a Record Breaking Piece
of Railroading All the Same.
Just forty years had elapsed on May
10 since the rails of the Union Pacific
moving westward met the rails of the
Central Pacific moving eastward at Pro-
montory Point near. Ogden, Utah, tr.d
the first transcontinental railway wr•s
completed.
When Thomas Durant of the Union
Pacific, and Gov. Leland Stanford, c
California, drove the last spikes in tl
first continent girdling line on M
10, 1869, the whole country, says L
lie's Weekly, was metaphorically los
ing on.
Things were eery different forte
years later when, without any golden
spike, without the presence of any of
the principal ,officers of the company,
the last rail on the Pacific Coast ex-
tension of the Chicago, Milwaukee and
St. Paul railway, now known as the
Chicago, Milwaukee and Puget Sound
Railway, was laid at point two miles
east of Missoula, Mont., just before the
5 o'clock whistle blew on March 31 last,
There was no celebration of any kind,
and the only speech was the remark of
the contractor to the foreman, "Bill,
that's a good job." The length of the
extension just completed from the
Missouri River to Seattle and Tacoma
is a trifle over 1;400 miles and brings
the total mileage of the Chicago, Mil-
waukee and St. Paul Railway up to 9,-
000 miles. The completion of the new
line was turned April 15, 1906. No Paci-
fic Coast line of any railway and no
line of equal length crossing three moun-
tain ranges has ever been constructed
within the short period of three years.
Durirg this period 60,000,000 cubic
yards of material have been excavated,
260,000 yards of tunnel driven, twenty
miles of bridges erected, and 200,000
tons of eighty-five pound rails laid at
a total cost of $85,000,000. The ballast-
ing of 'the new Ltranscontiuental line
will be completed about Jute 1, 1909,
and regular freight and local passenger
service will be established thereafter.
The new line as far west as the city of
Butte, Mon., has been in regular opera-
tion since September, 1908.

According to the latest statistics, the

capable of producing 10,000 millions of

This quantity, as compared with the

It would be'diffioult to find a greater
oddity in church architecture than the
Seaman's Bethel, on Rattlesnake Island,
close to the port of San Pedro, off the
coast of California.. It is . the decayed
and weather beaten hulk of an old ship
that used to ply the salt seas. Becoming

with cables and transformed into a

The Seamen's Bethel is a mission

sailors that come into San Pedro harbor
and of the fishermen of Rattlestake Is-
land. Alt the machinery and seagoing
fixtures have been removed from the olrl
hulk and the rooms amidships that used
to open into the engine room have been
combined into the assembly hall.
The after deck has been boarded in
and transformed into a reading room.

Really the Seaman's Bethel is a sort
of ixnstit•-`ional church. The after part
of the hold has been fitted up as a
gymnasium. Here also is a bowling al-
ley, and, in another corner are bathtubs
and a water heater. Another part of the
hold is fitted up with bunks, where the
sailor who finds himself "broke" be-
tween voyages is made welcome to spend

How Sparrows Came to New Zealand.
The Register publishes the following
paragraph quoted from Its issue of
June 23rd, 1859: "It appears from the
New Zealand papers that the country at
particular seasons is invaded by armies
of caterpillars, which clean off the grain
crops as completely as if mowed by a
scythe. With a view of counteracting
this plague a novel importation has
been made. Mr. Brodie has shipped 300
sparrows on board the Swordfish, care-
fully selected from the best hedgerows
in England. The food alone, he informs
us, put on board for then cost 418.
This sparrow question has been a long
standing joke in Auckland, but the' ne-
cessity to farmers of small birds to keep
down the grubs is admitted .on all sides.
Mr. Brodie has already acclimatized the
pheasant, which is abundant in the
north."—Adelaide Register.

Everybody Lucky.

where lee was well known. The landlady.
asked him to buy a ticket for a lottery
they had on there.
"Well," he said, "1 has nought in ma
pocket, or I might."
"Oh, that's a'reet, John," she says;
"take the ticket, and pay for it any
time."
Some, time later John called seen,
and the landlady asked him if he knew
who had won the lottery.
"No," he said. "Who won?"
"Well, I hardly durst tell you, rent
oor Sam won. Wasn't he lucky?"
"Aye, she was lucky," said John.
And who was second, then?"
"1 durst hardly tell you. Who would
you think now?" she said.
"1 couldn't say," said John.
"Well, it was oor Sally. Wasn't elle
lucky?"
"Aye, sha wes lucky," said John.
"And who was third?" he asked.
`Well," she said,. "you would never
guess, and I might as well tell. I was
third. Wasn't I lucky?"
"You were," he said. "Did I ever pay
you for that ticket, Missus?"
"No, John, you didn't," she said,
fawning upon him.
"Well," said John, "isn't I lucky."

Bridges in the Way.
The development of the traffic of the
Allegheny River is said to bo seriously
interfered with by the character of the
bridges spanning the stream. It ap-
pears that the several bridges between
Pittsburg and Allegheny have different
clearanoes above water and most of
them are too low for the full develop-
ment of navigation, now that the regu-
lation of the Allegheny River has
reached an advanced stage. An effort
is now being made to have the Govern-
ment take .some action with the object
of remedying the conditions, and the at-
tention of the Secretary of- War has
been called to the matter with the hope
of securing some relief. The situation
is somewhat complicated by reason of
the fact that all the structures are own-

He Answered It.
A party of young men were camping,
and to avert annoying questions they
made it a rule thatthe one who asked a
question that he could not answer him-
self had to do the cooking.
One evening., while sitting round the
fire, one of the boys asked, "Why is it
that a ground -squirrel never leaves any
dirt at the mouth of its burrow?"
They all guessed and missed. So he
was asked to answer himself.
"Why," he Said, "because they always
begin to dig at tbs other end of the
hole."
"But," one asked, "how does he get
to the other end of the hole
"Well," was the reply, "that's your
question."

treatment, with full instrutions. Send
no money, but write her to -day if your
children trouble you in this way. Don't
blame the child, the chances. are it can't
help it. This treatment also cures adults
and aged people troubled with urine dif.
ficulties by day or night.
KEEP THEM AT HOME.
(Goldwin Smith.)
Wo are much obliged to the English
journal which proposes to get rid of all
the pauper infants by sending them
here. The remark might sound rather
malthusian; otherwise we might say
that the best way of getting rid of
pauper infants would be to abstain from
bringing them into the world. A man
surely has no right to bring into the
world beings whom he cannot support
and thrust them on the community.
Malthus may have been rough in the ex-
pression of his views, though the blame
for this rests, it is believed, mainly on
his disciples, but it is difficult to deny
that he is right.
