Among the ministers present who ad? dressed the meeting were Dr. 0. E. Janney and Wm. W. Wood, of Balti? more, Md.; David W. Branson, of Hopewell, Va., and Milton 8chooley and Obed J. Pearpoint, of Waterford, Va. Among others present from a dis? tance were I-aac Bussel!, of Newmar? ket, Md ; Ann B. Branson, C E. Clev tnger, Lewis Pidgeon and Daniel T.

Williams, from Waterford, besides a good repiesentation from Washington. A number ol strangers from the neigh? borhood were very acceptably present. The topic (or discussion in the first day school session, "True Patriotism," was well handled by the several par? ties who were appointed to prepare pa? pers on the subject. Tue religious sessions were very ao oaptably addressed by the several min? isters, who exnorted the audience to a more faithful observance of the man? dates of the indwelling spirit and set before thbm tbe great personal respon? sibility of each in performing his duties to God and man. In the business meeting the reporis from the several monthly meetings -nowed a good condition of the society, and some helpful messages were deliv? ered by those who felt a concern. SKIBO CASTLE. During its somewhat chequered his? tory, which probably extends over a period of 600 years, the Castle of Skibo has (says the "Northern Chronicle") undergone many structural changes, and has passed in and out of the hands of more proprietors than perhaps any other Highland property of equal an tiquity. Whtn Episcopalcy was a dorn iuating redigious element, Skibo was the residence ol the Bishops of Suther? land and Caiihuees; for the ecclesias ics of the sixteenth century appreciated the "choice places of the earth" quite as much as the mooks of old ; and Ski: o undoubtedly come3 under that description, more especially as regards scenery and climate. The same building, according to tradition, afford? ed a night's shelter to the Marquis of Montrose when, as a half starved cap? tive from A6synt, he was taken south to be tried and afterward executed in Edinburgh. No doubt the old castle had mauy other interesting hiatorial associations; but when tbe orginal fabric of a building disappears, as it has now done almost com? pletely at Skibo, local interest in such matter does not long survive. After Skibo was purcuased in 1S72 by Mr. Evan CharlesSutherland (at the price of ?130,000), the Castle was so much enlarged aud altered that i has since been described as a modern build? ing, and now that the estate has passed into-tbe hands of Mr. Andrew Came-1 gie, this description is being bo thorough-I COUCH SYRUP has made thousands of children well and happy. It is more n crime to give a sick child a remedy that you are really only ex? perimenting with?and there is no need to do it. You can as easily j?et Dr. Bull's Cough Syrup as some substitute that you are told is "just as good." Dr. Bull's CURES ? you know it cures, and so does every person who has used it for any sort of a cough in the 'ast fifty years. No better can be made, and it is pure, sure and quick.

Triul box containing 20 Fill?, 5c, at dealers ur by mail. ly aod expensively confirmed by addi? tions and structural improvements that really the Castle's history must in fu? ture date from the beginning of the 20th century, and not from the 13th. Those fan i iar with Skibo Castle, as it has beeo known to the present genera? tion, will seo what is practically a tew building is to be raised on the old site. Mr. Carnegie's proprietorship is to be marked apparently by a heavy but judi? cious expenditure on the Castle, the ground.- and the estate generally; and the result of the building and other operations will undoubtedly be to make Skibo one of tbe finest residential demesnes in the High? land counties. It is estimated that the fine battlemented structure now in process of being erected will cost at least ?40,000; while the other improve meuts at preseut in tbe hands of work? men, or in contemplation, must incur a heavy expenditure, and give employ? ment to skilled and unskilled labor for a number of years. Two ornamental locbs of large area are to be formed in tbe immediate neighborhood of tbe Castle by damming up the estuaries of tbe Ospisdale aud Evelix burns, opera? tions which are expected to cost over ?12,000. Close by the Ospisdale water, a magnificent bathing establishment is to be erected; in another part of the grounds there is to be a model dairy on an elaborate scale; accommodation has "to be provided for a first class elec? tric lighting plant; plans have been completed for a factor's residence, and a new approach to the Castle, two miles Ions:, is al.-o included in the gen? eral scheme of improvement. The building operations are in the hands of Messrs. Boss & Macbeth, Inverness. Prevented a Tragedy. Timely information given Mrs. George Long, of New Straitsville, Ohio, pre? vented a dreadful tragedy and saved two lives. A frightful cough had long kept her awake every night. She bad tried many remedies and doctors but steadily grew worse until urged to try Dr. King's New Discovery. One bottle wholly cured her, and she writes this marvelous medicine also cured Mr. Long of a severe attack of Pneumonia. Such cures are positive proof of the matchless merit of this grand remedy for curmg all throat, chest and lung troubles. Only 50 cents and $1.00. Every bottle guaranteed Trial bottles free at E. S. Leadbeater & Son's Drug Store. AUGUST FLOWER. "It is a surprising fact," says Prof. Houton, "that in my travels in all parts of the world, for tbe last ten years, I have met more people having used Green's August Flower than any other remedy, for dyspepsia, deranged liver and stomach, and for constipa'ion. I find for tourists aud salesman, or for persons filling office positions, where headaches and general bad feelings from irregular habits exist, that Green's August Flower is a grand rem? edy. It does not injure the system by frequent use, aod is excellent for sour stomachs and iadigestion." Sample bottles free at the drug stores of Ernest L Allen, Claud M.
