50 YEARS AGO

were not more than half-a-diaren houses on all the many sunimits of the island,; and some of those were of a very, tom- porary character.

The chief drawback was not as much the impenetrable fogs" which clotho the hi-tops as the want of spendier modes of ascent, and this want was so- plied when Mr. Findlay Smith, with his funicular railway, deefded that the prl-] vate chair-coolie must go. The comple-| tion of the Tramway gave a considers ablo impetus to building operations up in cloudland, and by the end of last! year there were nearly sixty houses occupied. Hetween thirty and forty more aro In course uf construction, ranging from the practically-completed bullding to the bare foundations.

The sheltered hollow Just above the Ladies Recreation Ground Is 监 very favourite location. The Hon. B. Lagion has almost finished a splendid residence, with tennis-courts, etc., attached; the trustees of the late Mr. W. H. Broroton are erecting a terrace of ten housDE; Mr. L. Poscanecker has completed a fine realdence, adjoining one which is being prepared for Mr. G. B. Coxon. The Richmond Terrance Building Company: have three houses partially completed, Mr. B. G. Bird Is also providing one for himself, and several more will prob ably soan be begun by the Hon. . P.

Midway between the signal atation and iis present house The Errie"Mr. Belllion purposes erecting a villa in the Moorish style-not more rentish, which is the design he builds his other houses on-with circulae dome-headed watch- turrets at the sides, horse-shop arches and windows, and a lofty Oriontal | cupola, the central hall to be decorated aftern very long way afterthe Alhambra. From position a magni- ficent view will be commanded, whilst the building will be a conspicuous fen- ture in the appearance of the Peak.

The following citations will also be read from the Christian Science Text- book, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eday! "All reality is'in' God and His creation, harmonious and eternal. That which Ho creates is good, and ita makes all that is made. Therefore the only reality of aln, sickness, ar death is the awful fact that; "unrestilles seen aval human, enving bellef, until God strips off their disguise. They are not true, because they are not of God. We learn in Christian Science that all Inharmony of mortal mind or

body is illusion, possessing neither reality

nor identity though seeming to be real and identical. If Christian Science takes away the popular gods-in, sickness, and death it is Christ Truth, who destroys these evils, and so proves their nothing- neas. Ho that touches the hem of Christ's robe and masters his mortal beliefs, of healing-in the sweet and certain sense animally, and hate, rejoices in the proof that God is Love." pages 472, 347, and 509).

HAD. RHEUMATIC

His Arms Were Becoming Useless

It was about 25 years ago that rheumatism first marked down this sufferer: and Anally the day came when he could hardly ft his arms. But he found relief-here in this letter he tells the whole story

"About 25 years ago I first experi- erced slight muscular rheumatism in my arm and shoulder.. A few years later lumbago also attacked me. They gradually got worse until the pain got acute in both arms and folns. I could not lift a quart jugful of water with my arm extended straight out. About 12 months ago I bought a battle of Kruschen Salts and by the time It was finished I was agreeably surprised at a slight improvement. I bought another one and when that was finished all the pain had disap- peared, and has never appeared since."-TR.

If you could see the knife-edged crystals of uric acid under the microscope, you would readily under stand why they cause those cutting pains. Kruschen dulls the sharp edges of those crystals, then dissolves them away altogether.
