Hong Kong, Jan. 28.--For ten yeas Hong no has been scourged by plague, which st ll maintains its foot ing, in spite of the energetic measures of the British authorities. A very in- A8resting account of these measure is contained in a memorandum from Si by tue colonial othe. ihe government oliered a bonus of two and one-half pence for every rat canght--these animals being, as is wellknown, plague carriers, 'Ihe dis cgvery of a rat or a case of plague in a house was followed by disinid&tion, and the rat catchers were instructed to label each animal caught with the name of the house in which it' was ound. "The Chinese anxiety to avoid : the trouble of disinfection was ingenious ly turned to account by the coolie rat hunters, Whispers began to circulate that they levied blackmail on house ho ders by hinting at the possibility of a plague rat being found about the premises "in the absence of a tangible | evidence of good-will." 'There was also a suspicion that the coolies labelled the rats with wrong addresses out of revenge in order that a house might be disinfected. On one occasion an inspector found a group of rat catchers sorting out rats in a pack lane and putting on address la m | pels promiscuously.

The society of St, Jerome, Rome, distributed over 600,000 copies of the Holy Bible among the people of Italy last year. The pope is patron of the society and gave a large grant of money. Dean Leiroy speaking at Norwich, Kng., said that "'with forty years' ex- perience and observation behind him he believed the Church of England was largely responsible for the exist- ence of dissent."

He is now in his sixty-sixth year, and has not had the best of health for some time. Ven. J. W. Diggle, Archdeacon of 'Birmingham, said recently that, while he liked painstaking preachers, he wanteo preachers who would inflict more pain on the people. Comfortable preaching was no good. The cause of empty churches was that there was not enough painful preaching. Rev. Dr. E. Gurnos Jones, for many years past conductor of the Welsh National Eisteddfods, has just died. He studied first for the Presbyterian church, was ordained to the Congre- gational mimistry, subsequently be- came a Baptist, and finally returned to the Congregational church. The Church of England Bishop of Bristol has issued a note in which he expresses his disaporoval of a mass held within his diocese for the repose of the souls of departed members, and forbids the clergyman who presided on the occasion to officiate again within his diocese without permission. Rev. William Ferrie, pastor of the Presbyterian church, Prescott, from 1863 to 1867, died at his home in Monticello, N.Y., recently, at the ad- vanced age of eighty-nine years. He went from Prescott to Boston and from there to a church near New York, where he remained until failing health compelled his retirement. His declining years have been spent with a daughter at Monticello, N.Y. Clergymen of all denominations seem to feel that the archdeacon is right. Canon Barker, the rector of Marylebone, said that too many ser- mons were framed in such a way as to be pleasing to the congregations. "The clergy should come down and view the problems of life from the street," he exclaimed. 'People, have grown so callous 'that the plainest speaking and the hardest words from the pulpit would have no effect on the present generation. People do not oven wish for short sermons--they want no sermons." The "Darkest England" social scheme of the Salvation Army is now largely self-supporting.

The pleasures of an ascent of the higher Alps are sometimes enhanced, sometimes marred, by an immersion in a dense cloud, which, gendered in a nowy mountain-locked plateau, and impelled by the blasts of a sweeping gale, which, without any indication of its approach has suddenly arisen, now for a time blots out the outspread panorma far beneath, darkening {he air, and enwrapping the explorer in a cold and cheerless mantle of impene- trable mist, 4 But, continuing the ascent, though with wary and cautious steps, after a time the mountaineer suddenly emerges out of the gloom and darkness into the glorious sunlight, and ithe black cloud is in a moment metamorphosed into & brilliant. and dazslin, sea of rolling billows, as white even as the newly fallen snow which enshrouds the upreared mountain spurs and rounded domes of 'these towering heights. And now the spectacle is one of profound sublimity and majesty. Surrounding the glistening sca of ever advancing, ever-changing cloud-waves, beneath, ds a rugg escarpment of peaks and dark beetling clifi; some wowering up- wards to the skies, their jagged paints capped with a delicate, motionless canopy of white, diaphanous cirrus clou, the minute icy spicules" of which it is formed gradually becoming dissi- pated, "until the whole has disappeared merged into the thin air. Here is a wild gloomy ravine cleft info the very heari/of the mountain, whence from time to lime issue in- furiate blasts, which cleave a yawning gulf in the apparently solid alabaster of those rolling billows, or pile up contending masses, fashioning them into grotesque and fantastic shapes, and hurtling them in a disordered con- fusion amongst the more placidly ad- vancing rollers, into which, now be- ond the influence of the gusts issuing rom this cradle of the storm, they soon merge, and once more majestical ly roll on. At length the surging breakers gra- dually pass away into the far ofhng, and the beauties «f the great smowy valley are unfolded in all their glisten ing radiance; the lower of the pyra- midal peaks come into view; and far beneath in the distance may be glimps- ed woods and forests, cultivated fields and verdured meadows, and scattered chalets and villages; while, stretched out to the distant horizon is the chain snow-crowned monarchs of the Alps. And, raising the enraptured eye up- wards to the glorious azure of the canopied vault of heaven, the heart of the most wunimpassioned must throb with gratitude to the Creator of all this beauty, and must then and there profier the most ardent love and ador- ation of the very soul to Him for His com, jon to us mortals in suffering all that contumely, and all that dread soul:agony and tarture, in order that we, if we will, when our span here be- low is ended, might bound upwards through that azure to the bright realms of glory and of bliss.

A very elaborate theatre blouse is made like the above model. 1f made from good laces it is reallv a very handsome blouse, but it is also pret- ty and dainty made in inexpensive ef- fective lace. It is a combination of Irish point and Valenciennes inserting. The de- sign shows the manner in which the two laces are put on. The foundation is of white or cream Liberty satin, and as the material is cut away from under the lace, it is necessary to have both a taffeta and chiffon lining. This blouse = fastens down the back with small pearl or lace buttons. Catarrh Is Certainly Curable. In fact it is one of the most curable diseases if fragrant healing Catarrho zone is used. No matter how long you have sufiered with catarrh you can be perfectly cured by inhaling the antiseptic vapor of Catarrhozone, which strikes at the foundation of the trouble and establishes such a healthy condition in the system that catarrhal germs simply can't exist. "1 suffered from catarrh of the nose and throat for years," writes S. H, Downie, of- Plattsville. "My nostrils were always stuffed up and 1 had a most dis agreeable hacking cough. Catarrho- zone cured me completely."' Catarrho- zone never fails. Two months' treat ment, $1; trial size, 25c¢ Fur-Bearing Animals.
