About two months ago she suffered a paraly- tic stroke fromy which she was slow ly recovering, when another stroke was suffered on Friday and a third one Saturday. Deceased was about fifty years of age and leaves a family of ten children, five sons and five daugh ters, besides her sorrowing husband. She was a devout. member of the Ro. man Catholic: church.

Too much care cannot be used with small children during the hot weather of the summer months to guard against bowel troubles. As a rule it is only necessary to give the child a dose of castor oil to correct. any dis- order of the bowels. Po not use any substitute but give the old-fashioned castor oil, and see that it is fresh, as rancid oil nauseates and has a ten- dency to gripe. If this does not check the bowels give Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy and and then a dose of castor oil, and the disease may be checked in its incipi- ency and all danger avoided. The cas- tor oil and this remedy should be procured at once and kept ready for instant use as soon as the first indi cation of any bowel trouble appears. This 'is the most successful treatment kaown and may be relied upon with implicit confidence even in cases of cholera infantum. For sale by all druggists.

The union was entered into in good faith and was conmimmated under the most auspicious circum stances. The results in nearly fou years since that wventful day when the two bodies, marching in separate col umns on the streets of Fdinburgh mingled together, and, entering int, made them henceforth one, have abundantly justified the action taken It seems a strange irony that the sue cessors of the men who in 1543 Jef their churd and manses that the might have Yiberty of conscience ane be free from the dominance of the state in spiritual affairs should at this late date find their action, taken in good faith, overruled and set aside by a temporal court. The twenty-four men in whose favo. the decision was given are the sur vivors of the fifty-eight who stood out against the union in 1900, The cas was carried to the court of sessions in Scotland, and the men composing tha' court, with every opportunity o knowing the merits of the case, gave their decision against the remnant. | was then appealed to the Houss o Lords with the result already stated In the questions asked by the judge: during the trial of the case an almost encyclopaedic lack "of know ledge o Scottish ecclesiastical affairs was dis played.

It was ruled, however, on . these two points that there had been changes and the dissenting remnant that claim ed to hold the "original positions un changed was declared to be the true flows, Ont., retumed Free church. In a somewhat similar case in the United States the federal supreme court held that the decision of agen f° eral assembly is valid and binding so §°' long as it acts constitutionally ac §' cording to its own rules of procedure and "within reasonable limits.'

If this decision is to stand as the law governing ecclos iastical bodies the outlook is far from bright. It means that a church has not the power to revise her own stan. dards, that she must ever remain un der the grip of the dead hand of the past, and that a handful of men cap at any time effectually apply the brakes to the wheels of progress. Had that view prevailed in Canada it would have made the union of the Preshy terian churches in 1875 impossible, * Tt would also have made the subsequent union of the Methodist churches im possible, and any movement toward the reunion of the various Protestant bodies could be effectually blocked by a mere handful of men fn no sense re. presentative of the uniting bodies. It is scarcely conceivable that in this age such a decision can be upheld. It cannot be regarded as finally settled, for nothing is settled that does not rest on the bedrock of righteousness and equity. ------ $44,000 FOR MISSIONS.

Simpson, of New York, Pledges for foreign missions aggrega- ting $41,000 were raised. In spite of a drizzle at the forenoon meeting, the big audience remained in the grove, listening to Dr. Simp- son's sermon and watching him gather in dollars and pledges. In the afternoon a downpour drove the crowd into the tabernacle, where the money raising was continued. The total number of pledges was 375 and they ranged from 81 upward. There was one pledge of £5,000; two, £3,000 each; two, $1,600; two, 81,500; two, 21.000 each; one, $800; one, $600 and three, 8500 each.
