dwelling on tho left hide of his nock
and it was decided to be mumps. Ho
was given medical attendanco for
about three weeks when tho doctor
suid it was scrofula nnd ordered a
salvo. Ho wanted to lanco tho sore,
but I would not lot him and continued
giving him medicine for about four
.months when tho bunch broke in two
.places and became a running soro.
Throe doctors said it was scrofula and
ap,h ordered a blood mcdicino. A
neighbor told mo of a caso somewhat
,Hke our babe.whlcli was cured by
Hood's Sarsaparllla. I decided to
,glvo it to my boy aud in a 6hort whilo
his, hoaltl improved and his neck
hoalod so nicely that I stqpjicd giving
him, tho modlcino. Tho soro broko
outngabi, however, whereupon I again
gavo him -Hood's Sarsaparllla and its
persistent use has accomplished a com
plete cure. I do not think there will bo
oven a scar loft. 1 cannot speak too
highly of Hood's Sarsaparllla and I rec
ommend It every whoro I get a chance."

A formal protest against tho taxa
tion of legacleo lo cnarnauie, vuuea
tlonal and religious institutions was
mado to congress by the Methodist Episcopal
general conferenco today. The protest,
which was In the form cf a petition, intro
duced by W. J. Welch of tho Wyoming con
ference, characterizes such taxation as "con
trary to public policy and to the aim anil
spirit of our national institutions, ns prac
tically taxing directly tne insiituuons wnicn
do most to aid government and benefit our
people and Is In effect taking, money dedi
cated to public uses."
The conferenco refused to reverse
tho action or tho uoiornuo conicr
ence In the case of J. F. Pah3more, at
one time a prominent clergyman, who was
expelled from tho church and deposed from
th ministry, charged with maKing outer
attacks on ministers and bishops of the
church.
By a vote of thirteen to thirteen the
Book Concern commlttcH refused tonight
to return a report changing tho method of
raising the money to pay tho expenses of
tho next general conference. The system
In vogue nt present Is to assess tho ministers
of tho church 1U por cent of their salaries
for the year preceding the conference, mis
levy creates a sum of about $150,000, of
which nearly all Is collected.
Tho committee seemed nnxloits that a
new hymnal should be compiled, but It was
thought that tho remaining time of tho con
ferenco was too short to give the matter
consideration. Reports were returned to
tho conferenco re-electing the local book
committees at Cincinnati and New York.
