It is entmgd A Death Blow to Corrupt Doc~ ning and has had an enormous circula- tion throughout the Chinese Empire, one zeaigus pg;-son alone purchasing 800,000 for gratutous distribution. This triict is spoken of as one of the mo-5; powerful of the many anti-Christian jniiueiices now at work in China. Some idea of its character can be githeretlfroiii the fillowingextractsz “The religion of Tien-Cau dit.. “Sect of the Lord of Heii.ven,") originated with Jesus.

When , he has taken this pill his whole mind is confun-eil and darkened, so that he de- stroys his ancestral tablets, and only woiships an image of anaked chili which points one ringer towards heaven and another towards the earth. They say this is the Prince Jesus. Families having daughters. on entering their religion, restrain one of them from marriage. These are the guardians of the lock and keys of the chest containing magical spells and incantations. They are called ‘the old women who open thei. chest`. . . . In case of funerals, thel religious eject all the relatives and friends from the house, and the corpse is put into , the collin with closed doors. Both eyes are secretly taken out, and the oridce sealed up with a. plaster. The reason O for extracting the eyes is this: From one i hundred pounds of Chinese lead can' be extracted eight pounds of silver, and the " 'tt dofleadcan remaining nin y- wo poun s be sold at the original cost. But the only bta' th' il ' b com und- way to 0 in iss ver is y p0 a ing the lead with the eyes of Chinauien. i b The eyes of foreigners are of no use for this purpose. . . .

The Council wasalso entertained at a. garden party at Government House At Brandon, they were met bya tre- mendous thundcrstorm, with rain andi heavy hail and so far I have not heard who spoke at the meeting which is held there to-day. At Regina we had such a reception! were invited to Government Housoto dinner and afterwards were driven to Knox Church for our Council meeting. The Governor, Hon. Mr. Forget, was in the chair, with the President, Mrs. Benuedy, Toronto, at his left and Mrs. R. Kant-,. Gardiner, on his right. He said a few words by way of setting the “ball” in motion. Then the President readan ad- dress of welcome to those from the East. ‘ Mrs. Cummings gave a general sum- mary of the work, and ideas of the Coun- cil Qsince its organization. Mrs. Grant also spoke on Council work and the in- lluence it has had in\binding Canadian womentogether and to know each other. Mrs. G. responded to the address of welcome and said a few words upon the "curfew bell," which Regina Council wished something said about, and Mrs. Leigh also said, how much we all were enjoying kindness, all along the route. She compared their pzairies to a lovelysea . and the houses bo ships, Sac. His Honor closed with a few remarks, and reminded Mrs. Gardiner,“that this Council was per- ticularly intcrested in P. E. I., for the first Governor at Regina, Mr. Laird, came from there." Then there was a reception, and Mrs. Dark, one of the ladies receiving us, came l over tospeak to me and tell me she was a. Charlottetown girl, nee a Miss)(cKinnon. The principal hotel is also kept by an Islander, Mr. McLeod.
