Minutes of the General Meeting held on Tuesday, the 4th inst., Mr. Cohen in the chair. *

The meeting commenced by the minutes of the previous meeting being read and accepted The financial affairs of the Club were next discussed the Members being ably assisted by the Chairman both by counsel and with pecuniary aid. which enables me to say that the Club although not quite a success financially last season is now out of debt Owing to pressure of business. Mr Carter was some­what reluctantly compelled to tender his resignation as Secretary This was accepted, and he was accorded a hearty vote of thanks for his meritorious services^in the past. Mr Hunter was unanimously elected as Hon. Sec. (pro tern ). and the election of other officers was deferred until the next meeting, due notice of which will be given in the Journal.

The use of a private ground for the coming season was next discussed, iind it was decided to have one if it could possibly be obtained Messrs Shepherd. C. Bowman, and Hunter t£ing asked to look about for a suitable piece of grot. d. the Secretary in the meantime to apply for ground at Victoria Park A vote of thanks to the Chairman terminated the proceedings.

enshrine. Upon the heights is seated a maiden, passing fair, Her golden robes are shining, she combs her golden hair. With gold comb she combs her tresses, and sings a wondrous

song, In strange, melodious cadence, the sound is borne along. The boatman upon the water is holden in wrapt delight; He sees not the reefs before him, he gazes aloft toward the

height. Too surely the waters engulphing are drawing the boatman

Handicapper—V. Dawson.

Hon. Secretary and Treasurer—]. Burley, Hope Lodge. Wal-thamstow.

In presenting the Third Annual Report, it gives your Commit­tee great pleasure to congratulate the Members upon the most successful year's work. The Club has been at a great disadvantage in practically having no headquarters; yet. notwithstanding this great drawback, it has advanced to the van of the East London Clubs.

MEMBERSHIP—The Club now consists of sixty-seven active Members. This is an increase of 57 5 per cent, on the roll at the end of last season. The Committee trust that when the Social Rooms of the Palace are finished, we shall more than double our present roll.

MEETINGS.—Your Committee have met seventeen times during the year, with an average attendance of five Members Only one General Meeting has been held, and that was at the Country Head­quarters. when thirty-four Members attended. When the Palace is completed, this dearth of General Meetings will be obviated.

PRESS NOTICES —The Press Work this year has been shared by Mr. Bright and Ajax; the former taking the cycling press whilst the latter wrote for the Falace Journal and the local papers' This arrangement has worked most satisfactorily, and has left your Secretary free to devote his time to other matters concerning the Club. The Committee desire, therefore, to thank both Mr Bright and Ajax for their literary labours on behalf of the welfare of the Club.

ROAD RACES.—Your Committee have successfully carried out road competitions at the distances of five, ten, and fifteen miles respectively. These were, on the whole, well supported. Your Committee are indebted to V. Dawson, Esq , for his successful hjuidicapping. and to all those Members who kindly acted as officials, etc., on the course.

The Ten Miles Handicap received twenty-three entries and was well contested The best thanks of the Club are due to Mr. Sooley, of the Granville C.C., for acting as starter. The winners were as follows :—

The third prize was presented by Mr H Ransley, whilst the tourth prize was a silver medal, presented by an officer of the Club for the fastest Icser. E. Toole takes the Novice Prize

PIFTEEN MILES HANDICAP.—This event took place on July 5th on the Newmarket Road Messrs Dawson and Bright acted as starter and judge respectively, whilst J. Burley filled the post of distance judge. The winners were as follows :—

FIVE MILES NOVICE HANDICAP. — On October 4th a Five Mile Handicap, open to Members who had never won a prize in the Club, was decided. The thanks of the Club are due to Messrs Church, Bright, and Dawson, for acting as judge, and starters respectively. The winners were as follows:—

Mins. Sccs. Mins. Sees. 1st .. W. Burley .. 2 10 .. 18 30 2nd .. H. Burley .. 2 30 .. 18 55

CHAMPIONSHIP.—The race for the Championship of the Club and the Beaumont Challence Shield was decided on the Paddington Track on the 28th of August, and was productive of an exciting struggle Your Committee were surprised that onlv five Members aspired to championship honours, and trust that on future occasions more men will enter if only to ride for a place. The Shield was won by M Moyle. whilst V. Dawson was close up for second honours, J Howard, the former champion, being half a lap behind The time for the race is the fastest since the shield has been competed for Thanks are due to Moyle for making the pace for twenty-four laps out of thirty-five. This win will compensate for his last year's misfortune, when his machine broke down when on the point of victory.

Your Committee desire to place on record their strong dis­approbation of the unwarrantable and unsportsmanlike action of J. Howard in detaining the Shield after he had ceased to uphold his title of Champion of the Club.

The winnersof Championship prizes are as follows :—M. Moyle. Gold Medal and holder of Challenge Shield ; V. Dawson. Gold Centred Silver Medal; J. Howard. Lap Prize.

TIME MEDALS OR PRIZES.—Your Committee this year offered six prizes for those Members who first succeeded in covering 100 miles under ten hours. In the state of the finances of the Club, this restriction was necessary, but at the same time your Committee do not think that this arrjnn»—>t»nt is fair to thf» m-»jority of the Members, and therefore they respectfully ask the new Committee to make arrangements to run for these prizes on a different plan next season.

The successful competitors were M Moyle. O. Stephens, F. Glover, D Jesseman. V. Dawson, and H Raggett

SOCIAL GATHERINGS.—That most important part of Club life, the social side, has made great advances during the year, and your Committee trust that the present successes will act as an incentive for future occasions.

THE ANNUAL DINNER AND SMOKER was carrie- out in the usual, style of the Clnb The Vice-President, Captain Spencer Beaumont, L.C C., was unfortunately prevented from taking the chair as promised owing to an accident occurring to him while on his way to do so. The Smoker, under the able management of L. M. Nathan. Esq . of the Mohican Minstrels, was most successful, and the Committee desire to thank the various artistes who assisted in the programme.

THE CINDERELLA, held at the Bromley Vestry Hall, was a great success, so much so that the Committee propose holding a series of four at the same place during the coming winter, and trust that the members will do their utmost to make them enjoyable as well a^ profitable gathe"

GARDEN PARTY—Your Committee this year hired the Royal Pavilion and Gardens of the " Forest Hotel." Chingford. for the Annual Garden Party The grounds were very prettily illuminated at dusk with Chinese lanterns, by Leon Clerc. of Commercial Street, and the Committee beg to thank that gentleman for the interest he took in making the gathering a success. Your Com­mittee also beg to thank Messrs. W. Marshall and H Rosenway for their able ind successful services as M.Cs. on both these occasions.

INFLUENCE.—Your Committee are extremely gratified at the great strides made by the Club with regard to its position in the Cycling World of the East-End At the Woodford Meet, the largest meet of cyclists in the world, the Club was placed first by all the Cycling and local press, for its uniform riding and numbers. Your Secretary has had the honour, this year, of representing the Club on the executive of the Woodford Meet, and has also been elected a joint secretary of the Eastern Counties' Road Club, a club which comprises the best riders from all the cycling clubs in the Eastern Counties. He was also elected jecretary of the Blue Boar Challenge Cup Race. Your Committee also desire to thank Messrs Moyle and Howard for gaining the titles of Champions of Cornwall, Essex, and Eastern Counties.

CLUB RUNS —The average attendance at the Club runs has not been so good this year No doubt, the wet summer has had a great deal to do with this matter, and your Committee trust that next season a great improvement will take place in this direction.

The prizes for attendance have been won by H. Raggett and J. Kennard, who have each missed five runs.

TOURS.—Tours have been arranged and successfully carried out to the following places of interest:—Brighton, Oxford, Kent, Cambridge. Portsmouth, and the Isle of Wight. The colleges at Oxford and Cambridge were visited, and also the various places of interest in Kent, such as Canterbury Cathedral. Rochester Castle, the fortresses at Chatham. Leathern Bottle, and other places men­tioned by Dickens.

Your Committee trust that next season moi members will avail themselves of these opportunities, and so increase their know­ledge of the beauties, etc., ot Old England.

THE LADIES' COLUMN.

LADY graduate of Philadelphia has started as a doctor to the Omahas, under the name of Susan la Flash. As she is a native of the tribe and an original squaw, she has every chance of success.

Some Parisian ladies have determined to bring about a sensible reform in woman's dress, aad several among them have decided to wear skirts to the ankle, short hair and plain felt hat. If the ankle skirt were adopted by English women, at least for walking in the street or going to and fro from daily work, we should see less of the draggled-tailed, torn, and mud-bespattered garments that are so very unpleasant to look upon, besides being unhealthy to wear.

It is time something were done in the matter, but the short skirt question is a vexed one, and people who will denude themselves of clothing to go to a ball or theatre shrink in righteous horror from a mention of the ankle, pre­ferring muddy'skirts and the inevitable hitch, to cleanliness and comfort in this respect.

The Evening Standard of Saturday, November Sth, makes a most sensible comment on the Parisian ladies' intentions.

An extraordinary old lady of Green wirtle, Ala; has attained the august age of 115 years. She reads without glasses, and walks three miles to church. Another old lady has just died in Andalucia at the age of no. She led a band of guerilleras against the French invaders during the War of Independence, after which she married a smuggler, and displayed much energy in evading the revenue officers.

Two Domestic Servants' Unions have been started, in which the welfare of the servants is duly consumed. Their chief object is to bring the employers within reach of those out of work, avoiding all the miseries of casual registries. Registry offices are to be established in every quarter ot London.

Lady lecturers are much to the fore this season. Miss Foley gave ^lecture lately, at the Somerville Club for women, in Oxford Street, W.

It is proposed to start a hall of residence for women students at Aberystwith, a gentleman having guaranteed £300 if others will do likewise.

The Lady Guide Association has provided 290 persons with guides for sight-seeing only, during tiie first year.

Eating starch is an injurious habit much practised by foolish virgins, and others who wish to improve their com­plexions, but it is not a wise practice, and lately caused the death of a Canadian girl of fourteen years of age (truly the daughters of Eve begin early nowadays 1. American women are much given to the use oi drugs; sometimes it is morphia, sometimes strychnine pellets, but just now it is quiDine pills, which are the panacea for all ailments, and these are carried about in ornamental cut glass bottles. A little knowledge of physiology would save the poor body many of these experi­ments !

Four ladies, one of whom is a Pole, have just been admitted to the list of doctors of the Paris faculty of medicine.

A pretty story is told in most of the evening papers of Saturday about the little King of Spain, who found some difficulty in managing some chicken he was eating with a kn:fe and fork ; he therefore took his own little fingers, and was told by the attendant kings never eat with their fingers, whereupon he replied, " But this king do," and went ou in his perverse ways.

A little boy, whose sister had teased him all day more or less, was scolded for getting into a passion ; at night when going to bed he refused to say his prayers, and being asked why, he would give no reason. Alter much reasoning and

expostulation, he remarked, " I don't mind praying for my sister; " evidently considering that as ."ar he was concerned it was a most necessary concession on his part.

Another small child suddenly stopped short in the middle of his evening prayers, and said to his mother in a dubious way : " Muffer, Muffer, is Dod listening? 'cos if he isn't, I shan't go on."

CLASS NOTES. The first of a series of Science Lectures for the people was

given last night by Professor V B Lewes, of the Royal Naval College. Greenwich, the subject being " Explosives and Explosions," illustrated with many practical experiments.

The audience, which numbered nearly 1.000, were kept for one hour intensely interested in the Lecture, and at the close warmly testified, by their applause, their appreciation of his services.

The chair was occupied by the Rev. E Hoskyns, Rector of S'-pney. who. in introducing the popular Lecturer, spoke of the eno.is the Trustees were constantly making for the benefit of East-enders. an. asking that this last experime combining science lectures with an entertainment, might have the hearty support of the working men and women of the neighbourhood.

Following the Lecturer, an excellent entertainment was given by the University Club Minstrel Troupe, which was well received.

On Monday ne\t. Dr Dallinger, F R S., will lecture on " Con­trasts in Nature,' the infinitely great and the infinitely small. H. Cunynghame, Esq . has consented to preside.

WE have received a circular respecting Students' Residences, which we very heartily reproduce:—"There are, probably, very many in London who would gladly exchange the monotony of life in lodgings for the life of«, congenial and educated society. In this belief the Students' Residences at Wadham House and Balliol House, close to Toynbee Hall, 28. Commercial Street. E , have been founded They aim at providing something like a University life for schoolmasters, cierks, anizans, and medical students, whose days are occupied in business Every student has his private room, and there is a Common Room, so that all may enjoy the advantages of study, and also of that social intercourse by which alone com­plete education is made possible The household arrangements are largely under the control of a Committee of the Residehts themselves. The rent of a furnished room, including attendance and use of common room, is 7s per week The total inclusive cost of board, lodging, washing, etc. (exclusive of mid-day meals), need not exceed 15s per week. Rent is paid weekly. Each resi­dent has a latch key Every resident has free access to the Toynbee Hall Library. Residents can join the University L\tension Society s Classes, the Reading Parties, and (on election) the Toynbee Natural History Society, the Toynbee Travellers' Club, or the other Literary and Scientific Societies at Toynbee Hall Applications to fill vacancies should be sent to Bolton King, or J E Monk, at Toynbee Hall. The houses can be viewed by appointment."

W e very much regret that the date for the distribution of cer­tificates and prizes has to be postponed, but we hope to be able to announce the date next week.

1. PART SONG " Up, quit thy bower " Brinley Richards.

Up, quit thy bower, late wears the hour, Long have the rooks flown round the tow'r; O er flow'r and tree, loud hums the bee, And the wild kid sports merrily. The sun is bright, the skies are clear, Awake, lady, wake, and haste thee here; W aste not these hours, so fresh, so gay.

2. SONG ... " I am Titania" (Mignon) ... Thomas.

Miss KATE NICHOLLS. 1 a"lTjt;lnia' queen fairy! daughter of the air am I,

Bright and gay o'er the world I roam ; Like to a bird and lightning's flash I fly.

Bright troops of fairies hover round me. hollow my lightly-floating car ; ab, both night and day,

In chorus gay, melodies of love and pleasure sing; All take wing at the first dawn of day.

ArridI the flowers, at blush of morn unfolding, My flight I take, o'er forest and brake; I>I9ID |ke wav.e's white foam I float in silvery mist, Blithely dancing, light of foot, flight I take,

I am Titania, queen fairy.

SoNG "Enshrined" Roeckel.

MR. J. H. MULLERHAUSEN.

Deep in my heart a shrine I made, I kept it sacred, white and fair,

Treasures of mine therein I laid, T°° precious for the world to share.

Bright dreams that long ago I dreamed, rond hopes on timid pinions borne,

And all things pure and sweet that seemed I nfit to face the cold world's scorn. Lie there," I cried, unknown apart,

Lie hidden till the time shall be, Wlirri love shall bring the master key,

AuJ claim these treasures of my heart.

Soon it may be, it may be late ; The hour, the day, is all unknown,

But in my shrine my treasures wait, For love to claim, and love alone.

And when t~- uan^ in trust complete, Within another band I lay,

When eyes in perfect love shall meet, Then to my inmost heart I'll say,

" Throw wide the gates, the one is near, Who claims by right of love supreme. Each treasured thought, each hope, each dream,

At last my love is here."

6. SONG . . ." The Moorish Maid " ... Henry Parker.

Miss KEITH ASHTON.

I've watch'd the golden sunshine, Thro' my narrow prison bars;

I've 6ecn the pale moon gliding 'Midst her court of glitt'ring stars,

But no bird sing near my lattice, And the flowers I cannot see,

Save in dreams, the days recalling, When the captive maid was free.

In my dreams I see the wavelets, As they kiss my native shore ;

Hear again the martial music That 1 thought to hear no more.

Vet such dreams come but in sleeping, And that sleep I woo in vain,

Or has the night its wakiug visions, That I hear a plaintive strain.

November 12, 1890. The Palace Journal 319

Hark ! Near it comes, and nearer ; Oh, can it be that I,

Dare trust that music's message. That love and help are nigh.

Ah, yes; I know that voice. TIB he, My lover, true and brave;

Oh. heaven, look in pity. And help to bless and save.

Tis be. 'Tis he. My heart with rapture now is dancing, Like a bird of the wood, it sings-with glee; For love to home will bid me welcome. Like a bird of the wood, I'm free; I'm free. Ah, Ah; yes, like a bird, I'm free.

7. DUET ... " Tbe Sailor Sighs" ... Balje. Miss M. L. COLE & MR. J. B. MELLIS.

The sailor sighs as sinks his native shore. As all its less'ning turrets bluely fade,

He climbs the mast to feast his eye once more, Aod busy fancy fondly lends her aid.

Ah ' ho.\ each dear domestic scene he knew. Recall'd and cherish'd in a foreign clime.

Charms with the magic of a moonlight view, Its colours mellow'd, not impaired by time-

True as the needle homeward points his heart, Through all die horrors of a stormy main.

This, the last wish that would with life depart, To see the smile of her he loves again.

When morn first faintly draws her silver line, Or eve's grey cloud descends to drink the wave,

When sea and sky in midnight darkness join, Still, still he views the parting look she gave.

Her gentle spirit lightly hov'ring o'er, Attends his little bark from pole to pole,

And when the beating billows round him roar, Whispers sweet hope to sooth his troubled souL

Carved is her name in many a spicy grove, In many a plantain forest waving wide,

Where dusky youths in painted plumage rove. And giant palms o'er arch the golden tide.

But lo! at last he comes with crowded sail, Lo! o'er the cliff what eager figures bend ;

And hark ! what mingled murmurs swell the gale. In each he hears the welcome of a friend.

Tis she! 'tis she herself; she waves her hand, Soon is the anchor cast, the canvas ' -I'd,

Soon thro' the whit'ning surge he springs to land, And clasps the maid he singled from the world.

8. GLEE ... " Blow, gentle gales" ... Bishop.

9. SONG ... " Rage, thou angry storm " ... Benedict.

MR. ROWLAND J. DOBSON.

I love this fierce and elemental strife! What music in the loudly pealing thunder!

That, which awakens fear in feeble hearts, But gives unto my restless mind new pleasure.

Rage, thou angry storm 1 Darkly roll, ye thunders of the night 1

Pour your vengeance down ! To my soul your fury yields delight.

Joy ! joy! nought may repress my desires, Death and hate my lips have sworn.

Joy! joy ' darkness my bosom inspires, Fear and fate I laugh, I laugh to scorn.

Ride on, ride on, ye rolling thunders of the night! Your fury yields unto my soul delight.

Flash, ye lightnings pale! Play around this deep and sacred gloom.

Winds that hoarsely wail, Be your breath the coolness of the tomb.

Joy ! joy ! Who shall my wishes restrain ? If one spark of valour shine ?

Joy ! joy ! thoughts that the vulgar stain, Ne'er shall cloud this breast of mine.

Ride on, ride on, ye rolling thunders of the night! Your fury yields unto my soul delight.

10. ORGAN SOLO "Sonata No.2 in C minor" MenJilssohn.

(Grave—ad a trio—allegro maestoso—fuga). MR. ARTHUR DYSTER.

11. SONG " She wandered down the mauntain side " Clay.

MISS KATE NICHOLLS. She wandered down the mountain side, with measured tread

and slow, . She heard the bells at eventide down in the vale below ; A bird was singing its psalm of rest, but she heeded not its

song. For other thoughts fill'd 11 her head, and she sang as she

went along— . . . " I shall meet him where we always meet; he is waiting for

My heart is full, I hear ;t beat, I am coming, my love, to thee."

Poor child ! he's gone his last rest; alas! he perished in a foreign land,

He nobly died with face to foe. slain by a ruthless hand ; Ah, rne ! she knows not what they mean, for she heeds not

what they say. And still at eventide again she's seen, and she sings as she

wends her way— " I shall meet him where we always meet; he is waiting for

me; My heart is full, I hear it beat, I am coming, my love, to thee."

12. NEW SONG ... " Apart from Thee " ... J.L.Roeckel.

MR. J. H. MULLERHAUSEN. What is my life apart from thee ? 0 what to me is brightest day ? Why sing the birds so merrily When thou, dear love, art far away ? On sunny days, by summer seas. In sleepless hours of silent night, Thy voice is whisp'ring through the breeze, Thy face for ever mocks my sight 1 What is my life apart from thee ? Through lonely hours so sad and long, 'Mid dance and laughter—still the same, Thy face I see;—the sweetest song Recalls the music of thy name. And yet, for all this present pain, 1 would not lose our sa l, sweet past, Somewhere, we two shall meet again, Somewhere, dear love, at last. What is my love apart from thee ?

PART SONG • Sweet and Low * Barnby.

Sweet and low. sweet and low, Wind of the western sea,

Low, low, breathe and blow, Wind of the western sea.

Over the rolling waters go, Come from the dying moon and blow,

Blow him again to me; While my little one, while my pretty one, sleeps. Sleep and rest, sleep and rest,

Father will come to thee soon; Rest, rest on mother's breast.

Father will come to thee soon. Father will come to his babe in the nest, Silver sails all out of the west,

Under the silver moon. Sleep, my little one, sleep my pretty one, sleep.

14. DUET ... " Singing Lesson" ... J. Barneit.

Miss KEITH ASHTON AND MK. J. B. MELLIS. Come sing the lesson, Miss, I pray, That you were told to learn to-day ; Becin at once. I long to hear, Tue progress you have made, my dear. Sir, I can't, though I've tried, Without you, please, to guide, Nay, ne'er give o'er, try but once more, Do, re, mi, fa. sol, la, si, do, Bravo, bravo, well sung indeed, I thought if you tried, you would succeed.

The moon its light is hiding, the casement opens slow, And love her step is guiding to where her lover wait«='below • Then side by side they cross the foam, farewell to Spain!

good-bye to home ! r

For she has flown from wealth and pride to be her lover's bride.

Farewell, she sighed, while softly whispered be, " Whate'er betide,

Lconore, I love but thee ! I love but thee ! I love but thee! " " Come with me o er the sea, love shall ever guide thee I will be beside thse, love but thee, live for thee! Come with me o'er the sea, love shall ever guide thee Whate'er betide thee, I love thee, I love but thee I 'love I

love but thee." '

16. GLEE ... " When winds breathe soft " ... Webbe.

When winds breathe soft along the sl'ent deep The waters curl, the peaceful billows sleep A stronger gale the troubled wave awakes, The surface roughens and the ocean shakes. More dreadful still, when furious storms arise, The mounting billows bellow to the skies. On liquid rocks the tottering vessel's toss'd ; Unnumber'd surges lash the foaming coast.

The raging waves, excited by the blast, W hiten with wrath, and split the sturdy mast. \Vben, in an instant, He who rules the floods, Earth, air, and fire, Jehovah, God of gods, \° ? £ailDg accents speaks His sovereign will, And bids the waters and the winds be still. Hush d are the winds, the waters cease to roar, bale are the seas, and silent as the shore.

Now say what joy elates the sailor's breast, \\ ith prosperous gale so unexpected blest; Y\ hat ease ! what transport in each face is seen ! The beav'n's look bright, the air and sea serene 1 Nor ev ry plaint we hear a joyful strain lo Him whose power unbounded rules the main

18. OLD MADRIGAL " Down in a flow'ry vale " ... Festa.

nu n? a flow ry vale, all on a summer morning, Phillis I spied, fair Nature's self adorning. Swiftly, on wings of love, I flew to meet her; Coldly she welcomed me when I did greet her.

I warhled »hus my ditty Oh! shepherdess'have pity, And hear a faithful lover His passion true discover. Ah, why art thou so cruel ? Then straight replied my jewel—

If gold thou hast, fond youth, 'twill speed thy suing, But if thy purse be empty, come not to me a-wooing.

Soon as I careless stray'd, fond youth, with eyes averf-d. Phillis I met, by all the swains deserted. Swift she (though late so ccy) now flew 'to meet roe, My back I turn'd to her when she did greet me.

She warbled thus her ditty— Oh ! shepherd, now have pity, And to your faithful lover Your passion true discover. Then did 1 cold and haughty view her. And thus replied unto her,

The love that's won by gold will prove undoing, So, since my purse is empty, I'll go no more a-wooing.

MESSRS. MELLIS, MITCHELL, SMITH, and J. JONES.

Would you know my Celia's charms, \\ hich now excite my fierce alarms, I'm sure she has fortitude and truth, To gain the heart of every youth. She has only thirty lovers now The rest are gone! I can't tell how, No longer Celia ought to strive, For certainly she's fifty-five.

20. SOLO AND CHORUS, " Good-night, farewell" Garrett.

Solos by Miss KEITH ASHTON AND MR. M.JONES.

Good-night, farewell, the day is spent; Above, around, the darkness spreads ;

In heaven s blue arch the stars appear, The moon her silv'ry radiance sheds;

Our work is done, Our song is sung,

Good-night, farewell. W hate'er of hope, whate'er of joy, Can grief beguile, or care destroy, The daily toil, the ceaseless care, Which track us everywhere, Alike have lost their potent sway. And lade as fades the dying day. Night's dreams bid those of day depart, And calm the wearied heart: Good-night, farewell, the night is spent; Above, around, the darkness spreads :

Our work is done, Our song is sung;

Good-night, farewell.

THE REV. E. F. SHAW.

AN INTERESTING INCIDENT a HIS LIFE.

The Rev. E. F Shaw. F.R.A.S.. who resides in London, at 122. Elgin Avenue. W . is the only brother of Captain Shaw, of the Metro­politan Fire Brigade, and during the month of Jane. 1889. when he was in a very weak state of he.1th. he happSy took up a Lrodon daily paper and carefully read through four whole columns of letters—all convincing testimonials in favour of Harness' Electropathic Belts. Each report explained how a marvellous cr^e had been effected by simply wearing one of these genuine and convenient health appliances. Amongst those who had by this simple means been completely restored to health were men and women of all stations in life, who had suffered from various obstinate ailments, including the following nervous exhaustion, hysteria, brain fag. melancholia.^ sleeplessness. neuralgia, rheumatism, gout, sciatica, lumbago, torpid liver, indigestion, consti­pation, internal weakness, disorder of the kidneys and other organs, epilepsy, impaired vitality, etc. There were also testimonials from rupture sufferers, who had been wonderfully relieved by wearing Harness' improved Hernia Appliances.

Mr. Shaw noticed in the advertisement that the Medical Battery Company (Limited), who are the sole propr.ctors and manufacturers of Harness' Electropathic Appliances, invitee the public to call at their Electropathic and Zander Institute. s^.Oxfcrd S -eet (at the corner of Rathbone Place). London. W.. and see the original testimonials, and avail themselves of a free personal consolation. He accordingly visited the Company's establishment, which, by the way. is the largest and only complete Electro-therapeutic Institcie in the world, and pur­chased an Electropathic Belt and battery for his own use; and it is well to notice that after a lapse of sixteen months his sense of gratitude led him to add his testimony to the thousands of satisfactory reports already received by the Company, and the following is a verbatim copy of a letter which he wrote to Mr Harness, the original of which may­be personally inspected (with a multitude of others, equally con­vincing). or a facsimile copy may be had, wiui descriptive illustrated pamphlet, free of charge, on application to Mr. C. B Harness, the Medical Battery Company (Limited), 52, Oxford Street. London, W.

Copy of the letter from the Rev E. F. Shaw. F.R.A.S.. '22, Elgin Avenue. London. W . October 25th. 1890 He says" The appliances which 1 procured from you sixteen months since, viz., an Electric Battery and an Electropathic Belt, have proved most valuable to me. My general health is very much better ever since I began to use tnem, and my throat is restored from a chronic tenderness, from which I had' suffered for many years You can refer anyone you please to me."

All In search of health should either call and avail themselves of a free personal consultation, or write at once for pamphlet and book of testimonials. Only address. The Medical Battery Company (Limited). 52. Oxford Street. London, W.

Miss L. Turner, 119, Gipsy Hill. Norwood, writes. Jan. 29. 1889: I had been suffering for nearly three years, but am much better

since wearing the Belt. I feel much stronger, and not so nervous. Ii is a great con.fort."

IF YOU ARE SUFFERING

From any slight derangement, with the cause of which you are ac­quainted. you will find that HARNESS' ELECTROPATHIC BELT affords a perfect means for the self-application of curative electricity It is pleasant to wear, produces no shock or discomfort whatever, and is absolutely certain to do good in every case. The thousands of tes­timonials in favour of

HARNESS' ELECTROPATHIC BELT

Speak for themselves. A large number of them are published in book form (gratis and post free); but sufferers are invited to call, if possible, at the Company's Electropathic and Zander Institute. 52. Oxford-street. London. W., and convince themselves by inspecting the originals Those who have any reason to fear that their sufferings are serious or complicated are recommended to call and avail themselves of a free personal consultation; or. if they reside at a distance, to write for a pnvate consultation form, which will be sent by post (with pamphlet) free of charge.— [ADVT ]
