Indigestion and Catarrh.
40 Kentish Road, Handsworth, Birmingham. Dear Sirs, It is now about five years since Angier's Emulsion was recommended to me by a doctor, and I have found it invaluable for indigestion and stomach catarrh, as well as for toning up the system. I was very much run down when I first took it, but improved immediately, and gained in weight 15 lb. in twelve weeks. I have recommended the Emulsion to several of my friends for various complaints, with good results. It proved especially good for a friend' who suffers from inflammation of the bowels, who was completely cured, and has been at work regularly ever since.

On the eve of Christmas, a meeting was held in the Auld Kirk Assembly Hall in Edinburgh. It was a private meeting; which perhaps accounts for its succeit but the general result of it has become known, The large and representative Joint Committees of tho Church of Scotland and the United Free Church assembled in continuance of their efforts to bring about some haris of Union. When the fathers and brethren" had constituted the meeting with prayer, a well known minister rose and gave the land. Ea enid they had mot many times but appeared to get to "furarder," be cause they talked too much about the "principles" of past years; and he followed this up by making a proposal which took great licensing bodies of the Empire. It every one's breath away, that a sub-um- was the first in the Northern Kingdom, mittee of laywen be appointed to confes if not indeed in Britain, to institute and bring in a report.

Strange to say, this motion, which meant the abdiention of the elarzy in favour of the larmen was agreed to ananimously. A body of gentlewen well known in business and isgal circles was immediately nominated, and they trooped out to a side room to consider the matter without the interference of the "black coats.
When the laymen returned to the hall they announced that they thought they had pulled it through."-the phrase

should issue pastorals enjoining all minis ters and office-bearers to cultivate friendly relations and acts of amity and good-vill na preparation for union; second, that the divinity students should attend the same classen; and third, that in order to avoid legal interference, from which they had greatly suffered, the two Churches should ask Parliament to sanction some well-considered financial acheme; guaranteeing the freedom of the Churches to carry it out without hindrance, and providing that this sanction should be regarded as indicating the relations of the State to the Church of Scotladd free and united."
The reading of the report was received in silence, and at its close the silence seemed to grow more profound. Then a voice strick up the familiar palm with which the Assemblies conclude all their sittings,
"Pray that Jerusalem may have
Peace and folicity."

The words were pealed forth by man who seemed to feel that the strifes of weary year had been closed, and that peace indeed had come. It was a wonderful scene, and the effect of it may extend through all the coming years in Scotland,
