William Waiters, the e:raeeniee weed- er and secretary of the eurtpture UIYt Mb- 4ion, ,passed away recently while en a visit with his eldest daughter at Woking. Mr. Walters was quite rowdy to meet his Lord. It was k e+bout the master, and bes a wto e eev never so hap- py as when engaged in ,preaobing the Gos- ,e1 or in dtstrebueing copies of the Serie- tunes. Of rate years he developped e iquite+ Y talent for writing poetry, before he passed away he oommeneed a poem, the title for which he had written on a sheet of paper, 'With Thee,' little thinking that before he could finish it he would be with the Lord whom he loved. 'Jesus him- seld drew near' was the title of another poom Which be 'wrote only recently, and Us tone seems to show that the Lord was preparing the heart, of our friend. The eon - eluding verse runs: And when, 0 Lord, I see Thee, And on Thy beanies gaze I'll cast my crown 'before Thee, And give Theo all the praise; For Thou alone are worthy My all in all to be, Oh, when will come the bome-call That wings my flight to Thee? His life was one of whole -hearted devo- tion to the circulation of the Word of God, believing that the Gospel it declares Is 'the power of God unto salvation' to all that be- lieve. In order also to attract the atten- tion of the careless and indifferent In all THECOREARDS This sign is permanently attached to the front of the main building of the Lydia E. Pinkham Medioine Company, Lynn, Mass. What Does This Sign Mean ? It means that public inspection of the Laboratory and methods of doing business is honestly desired. It means that there is nothing about the bus- iness which is not "open and above- board." It means that a permanent invita- tion is extended to anyone to come and verify any and all statements made in the advertisements of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. Is it a purely vegetable compound made from roots and herbs --with- out drags ? Colne and See. Do the women of America continu- ally use as much of it as we are told ? Come and See. Was there ever such a person as Lydia E. Pinkha i, and is there any Mrs. Pinkham now to whom sick woman are asked to write ? Corrie and. See. Is the vast private correspondence with sick women conducted by women only, and are the letters kept strictly confidential? Come and See. Have they really got letters from over one million, one hundred thousand women correspondents? Come and See. Have they proof that Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compoundhas cured thousands of these women ? Come and See. This advertisement is only for doubters. The great army of women who know from their own personal experience that no medicine in the world equals Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound for female ills will still go on using and being ben- efited by it ; but the poor doubtin suffering woman must, for her own sake,betaught confidence,for she also might just as well regain her health. parts of the world, be conceived the idea of t1lustrating the Scriptures of Truth, not with the 'old:masters,' as had peen so generally done giving false potions of Eastern man- ners and customs, as well as teaching and per- petuating error), but with true picturea of the Holy I •and, depleting places as well ,as the manners of the people whose custows are practically the same as those of which we, read in the Scriptures. With this idea in view, Mr. Walters, at Iris own charges, iarranged with two noted artists to go out to the Holy Land in order to paint the necessary pictures for repro- duction. On their return., our friend set to work, and the Scripture Gift Mission was Rounded in the year, 1888. Among these who become supporters in various ways at the inception of the work may be mentioned the late Biebop of Liverpool (Dr. Ryle), the rete General Sir Robert Bhayre, and Sir George Williams, while the Archdeacon of London (Dr- Sinclair) became its first president, and remained fn that position until the mis- sion's headquarters were moved Lem St. Paul's Ohurehyard when the present Bishop of Durham became president. Prebendary Webb- Pemloe, has for many years been chairman of the committee, and he takes a considerable share in the general direction of the work. As time went on, Mr. Waiters felt that the work had grown to such dimensions that it would be wise to vest all the property of the mission in the hands of trustees. Tics suggeetion was readily complied with by the committee, who lent their aid and showed their deep and practical interest 1n the work by forming themselves into a respon- sible body. In 1897 the committee of the Crystal Palaoe Bible Stand appronohed Mr. Walters with a view of amatgameting that work with the Scripture Gift Mission, as Mr. William Hawke (who bad founded the Crystal Palace enter- prise in 1868) was advancing in years, and thought that in other hands the work might still be carried on. An Lnoorporation was arranged, and at the present time the Scrip- ture Gift Mission is carrying on part of the work of the old Bible Stand. Nearly all 1„ • late exhibitions, in various parts of the world ere visited by agonts--.in most cases � onomry workers -of the mission, and in sirs way thousands •of people are presented With a copy- of a portion, at leastof the Word of God. • Another branch of the work is that of sanding out the Gospels to all parts of the world in the :modally illustrated form which distinguishes the editions of the mission, The piotures wore drawn in order to throw light on the snored page as well as to wt - treat people to peruse it. It is impossible to estimate the results, but the letters which Mr. Walters used to receive from all quar- ters testify to the attractiveness of those "Scripture Gifts,' and demonstrate the value el the work. Mr. Walters started by publishing •parts of ' the Gospel, weekly, in L'lugildsh; then portions worn sent out in French. Spanish end other languages until the publicetlon of the mission have come to be issued in nearly twenty languages, including several of the Ingram languages, Chinese, fapaneee, Arabic, etc. The (illustrated) New Testa- ment in Icelandic and Swedish have created Mite a revival in the reading of the Word of God. It bad long been laid clown upon the heart of lir. Walters to publish the whole Bible in English illustrated in the same way, be- lieving that it would be most useful to Sunday school teachers and others, since the illustrations themselves form a realistic oommentary. For long years he had been thinking the matter out, but only last Obrist- neas was he enabled to accomplish his desire. Thts bas been done in conjunction with the Oxford University Press. The illustrations prepared by the mission are bound up with the well-known 'Oxford' Bibles. These Bibles have been very favorably reviewed; In fact, the press is unanimous in expressing praise of this admirably illustrated Bible. There is no doubt, indeed, that the marked ohenge which has come over the method of illustrating the Scriptures was largely brought about by Mr, Walters. It may be a surprise to many to lean tbat the number of Gospels, Bible and ',por- tions,' circulated by the joint missions has amounted to more than thirty-three and a half millions of copies, while the number of Sorlpture text -Dards and smaller portions of the Word of God bas been nearly sixteen and a half millions.

Major F. S.

A like apathy, however, prevails in other countries most concerned, in some of which the people at large express a full realization of what is soon to affect modes of life and international liberties and restrictions. The subjugation of the atmosphere bas not come impressively like the steam- boat of Fulton, or the "What hath Sod wrought" over ,Morse's wire, but has crept slowly from the diversion stage to the equilization.of advanced engineering and equipment. Who can doubt that the actual condi- tion is understood in the chanoelries of Europe—it must be that cabinets and rulers have►an inkling of it, that British statesmen know what it means. else why are they watching so intently the efforts made by one another? England, as usual, is letting others pull the chest- nuts out of the fire, ready to profit in imitation of what others may produce; although, even she, at last, has tested, rather unsuccessfully, a dirigible airship of her own.

The main difference between a rifle and a smooth -bore gun is that the inner surface of the rifle barrel has one or more spiral grooves cut into it. The ob- ject of this is to permit a portion of the material of the bullet or projectile to sink into the grooves. As the projectile is forced out of the barrel these projec- tions into the grooves tend to remain there, thus giving rise to a spinning mo- tion. In fact, it is not only going for- ward, but is rotating rapidly as it goes. The axis will tend in accordance with the gyroscopic principle— to maintain, without change, its direction. But that is really saying that the projectile will tend to remain in its true course. So this is why a rifled gun shoots straighter than a smooth bore.—From J. F.

Once Highly Recommended by the Medical Profession in England Formerly it was customary for Kings of England on Good Friday to hallow certain rings, the,'wearing of which pre- vented cramp or epilepsy. They were made from the metal of decayed coffins and consecrated with an elaborate ceremony, some details of which are still preserved. They were "highly reeomniended by the medical profession" about 1557, for Andrew Boorde, in his "Breviary of Health," speaking of cramp, says: "The Kynge's Majestic hath a great helpe in this plat- ter in hallowing ()r rape Binges without money or petition," Occasionally cramp rings played a per.. suasive part in diplomacy.
