The doctor said that I, too, would soon dee and, all our neighbors thought that even if I did not die I would never bo able to walk, because I was so weak and puny. A gathering formed and broke under my arm. 1 hurt my finger and it gathered and threw out pieces of bone. If I hurt myself so as to break the skin, it was sure to become a running sore. I had to take lots of medicine, but nothing has done mo so muck good as Ayer's Sarsapa- rilla. It has made me well and strong.” --- T. D. M., Norcatur, Kans.

CHAT WITH THE NOTED IIEAD OF THE SALVATION ARMY. HE Ig TO SPEAK IN 70 OF THE LARGER CITIES IN THE UNITED STATES AND AT 570 MEETINGS—HE TALKS ABOUT HIS LAT- EST SOCIAL SCHEME. "It isn't wicked to be reduced to rags. It is not a sin to starve, to pawn the few sticks of furniture to buy food and pay the rent. It is a misfortune that comes to people, honest, good people, in hard times or when work is hard to get." The speaker was the Rev. Williani Booth, commander-ir,-chief of the Salvation Arzny, the Christian,soldier whose name is spread thro ti ghout more lands than that of any other modern worker for the Lord. He was explainin4. his new social scheme for getting rid of the congestion and the misery which are so much in evidence in every great city. "It is such people," he contined, "that the social scheme gleans to help by getting them out of the congested towns back into the country, where they can become a hardy, thrifty peasantry, the glory of any nation." "But Baron Hirsch found it impos- sible to get city popple to work in the country." . "Ah," said the General, "but I have a better plan than Baron Hirsch. I don't dump down in a wild country a lot of helpless people and let them trust to fate. I don't transfer loafers, I am not such an ass. Is that word all right here ?" he asked of his son, Ballington Booth. "Perfectly." "Well, change that. I am not so simple as to put then in a colony who cannot he trusted. They are tested in our homes in town. If they want to work they are the kind of men we want. There are 25 young, strapping fellows now in the colony at Hadleigh, near the mouth of the Thames. They work from 6 a. m. till 6 p. in. for their board and lodging and clothes, and if they are not Salvationists they get small grants for tobacco. Salvation soldiers don't use tobacco." The General's beard moved into a smile as he added : "They are court- ing the girls in the village. "The backbone, though, of such colonies should he reformed men, men who have been soundly saved and to whore a new start would be the making of them. "The men are not to be left; to shift for thetnselves. They will he looked after from the moment they leave the city. They go to a place prepared for them, with cottages and tools. We help a man to the last ditch, and then he must pay us back. "Wedo nothing for nothing. We do not pauperize by gifts. We propose to get another large tract of land and forth a twin settlement with that of Hadleigh. I should say that the title of the land rests in fee simple with the colony and not with the individual colonist. "Essence of the scheme is that we will transfer prepared people from the overcrowded cities• to a pr'epat ed place in the country. These will not be peo- ple classed as the 'submerged tenkh,' but those who have been raised by God's grace froni the 'submerged tenth' or who are rescued hefore they go under. "We are able to reform people in the city. Of the lost girls we have rescued 70 per cent. have proved faithful after a three years' test. We have 102 insti- tutions in England, including 64 slum post reserves, 48 houses of ex criminals, 21 shelter's, 33 labor bureaux and 17 farm colonies." The general said that from seven to ten men representing British Colonies had asked him to apply for grants of land on which to found over -sea colon- ies. "Do you think the milleniurn will come if the whole world is conirerted to the Salvation Army?" "It would be very near at hand. If the newspaper -men were converted it would be a very long step in thatdirec- • tion." The conversation turned then on the demonstrative irlethods of the Salva- tion Army. "There is a noisy church and there is a silent church," said the General. "I don't know why one shouldn't be as good as the other. Our people have not reached the point of modern cul - tut e where all emotion must be sup- pressed. When our people feel good they show it. If they aro happy they shout. They are happy andthey make ;In secret of it,'Religion is a platter of the heart, of the feelings, I have been in churches where the peo- ple acted as if they had been made of terra-cotta. It was not a Salvation Arley meeting." Gen. Booth will hold 570 meetings in 70 of the larger cities in this country before his return to England. Buffalo is included in the list: How does he stand the immense amount of work which falls to him? Some glen have physical power, others btive nerve power, still others have both. These fatter are the ones who stand the strain. "Yes, my health is good," he said. "A night's rest always makes pie as good as new." Fortunate man. He was a vegetarian before he came to America on his .present trip. "I found that I was to be the guest of so many private per'sous," ho explains, "that I could hardly in politeness refuse to eat what was set hefore me. So I am tak- iuc a vacation from my views on this tour." Gen. Booth is described as looking the Ulan confident of •his power with- out being demonstrative of that fact. He felt that he was great in the arduous greatness of things done. He is tall, and wiry. Perhaps he is a trifle bent at the shonlders. Tall then often are, especially when they get to he 65 years old. His hair was once back. Now it is gray and projects in a long foretop brushed to the right. He runs his fingers through it nervously as he talks. He takes off his gold eye -glasses and puts them on hefore breathing again. He fiddles with the chain from which his glasses dangle. He shifts in lits chair. Ile is a plan whose nervous energy must expend itself in more than one way at a time. For instance, a visitor to the International Head- quarters !n London found hire sitting for a portrait, dictating to two steno- graphers and eating his luncheon. He breaks clown stenographers with over- work while he goes on as fresh as paint. He has a long, fleshy and prominent nose. It droops. With his long gray patriarchal beard, it gives him the look of some Scriptural patriarch, Moses, for instance. He wears a military coat with gold epaulets, frogged and richly braided with black silk. On the collar are the gold "S" and the'device of the Salvation Army: "Blood and fire," with the crown at the top. These are embroidered on red velvet lozenges. He wore a red cassock waistcoat of smooth military cloth, buttoned under the arm, as priests' waistcoats are. It was embroidered in yellow silk with the Salvation Ariny insignia very handsomely done.

A TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE : Mr. Geo. Tribe, of Straffordville, Ont., a pretty village near the shores of Lake Erie, went through an experi- ence lately that he will never forget. He tells it in his own words: For three years i suffered from skin disease in its worst form; I tried Kennedy's Medical Discovery and the Cuticura remedies, and doctored one year with the best physicians in the land, but got no benefit; they pro- nounced my disease a Sealy Eruption, but failed to remove it. " It came on in red blotches and spread over try body ; the akin became dry'and formed hard, white scales ; the itching was intoler- able, but I am now completely clued by the use of Burdock Blood Hitters. I can truly say that 1 owe my good health to B. I. B., and 1 advise all sufferers to use this splendid medicine. GEo.
