TEIBDHE OFFICE. tW|£ (P)i££lol* P PRANG’S OHROMOS. run linn Elm. A CARD. When, about ton years ago, wo determined on tbo experiment of substituting good artlatio copies of good artistic paintings lor tho poor class of colored prints tbon in this market, and when, one year later, we began to Issuo such copies under tbo designation of “chromes,” wo bad no Idea that this business of ohrorao-mnkiiig would In a fow years prow to its present enor mous proportions. Tbo word “ obromo ” was of our Invention; wo applied it strictly to nothing but fac-similcs of good paiutiops, and mndo it honored by tbo merit of our produc tions; very naturally, therefore, it was soon taken up by unscrupulous speculators, who ran sacked tbo lithographic establishments of Europe for color prints of all sorts, which ’they throw upon the American market as “chromos,” hop ing by this designation to giro them rank, al though their wares, with some exceptions, were entirely destitute of artistlo merit, and fully as bad as tho colored prints of former times. But tho worst abuse of the word “chromo” was still to come, anditoamo with tho “Premium Chro me,” that most abominable of all tho abomina ble inventions of our own time. To speak plain ly, those Premium Chromos aro, with fow credit able exceptions, only snares sot by publishers to entrap pooplo into subscribing for their publica tions. Although described aa being worth from $5 to- $lO, thoy actually cost only from five to fifty cents, which must of necessity bo tbo caso, as tho price of tho paper seldom exceeds $2 or $3 per annum. To understand why chromos offered at very cheap prices, or to be given away as premiums, cannot bo anythiog like artistlo productions, it is only necessary to consider tho conditions under which alone a Good Coromo can ho produced. In tbo lirst place, it is requi site to havo a good original painting to work from, tho cost of which ranges from several hundred to several thousand dollars. Then, again, it is necessary that tho lithographic artist should ho tho best; that ho bo unlimited in time, and that everything used in tho process—stones, paper, colors, machinery, Ac., —bo of prime quality. With tho best of workmen and tho most expensive materials, a good chromo cannot bo made, so long as cost and not quality is the first consideration. Now wo are free to assort that wo have always left the question of cost en tirely out of our calculations. Having decided upon tho reproduction of an original, wo put it rnto the hands of the best artists, with instruc tions to make a fao-Himilo. If twenty printings will do it, why, thou, well and good. But If thirty, or forty, or oven moro are necessary, why, then, likewise, well and good. It will bo appor ont, immediately, that such a proceeding cannot bo adopted when cheap or Premium Chromos oio to bo produced. With these tho question Is, how much art and labor can wo afford to put into it? Tho result of our manner of proceed ing, wo arc glad to say, has boon that our Chro mos aro now recognized tho world over as the boat anywboro made, and that they stand unri valed lor depth of tone, delicacy of modeling, and general excellence. To mako their excep tional position, and to separate them by thoir titlo from tbo great mass of other Chromo-lltho graphic prints, wo havo for several years desig nated them as “ Brand's American Chromos,” and havieg thus connected ourselves personally with them, openly assuming tho responsibility for everything that may bo in them of good or bad, wo intend in future, ns welt' as in tho past, to maintain tho standard of excellence which wo created for ourselves. Wo must still, howovor, caution the public agniust mistaking other pro ductions for our own, as unscrupulous parties aro kuown to bo offering Chromos of all sorts under tho fraudulent representation that thoy aro of our make. Purchasers should invariably demand to soo tho trade-mark on all pictures offered to them as “ Prano’s American Cnno mob," and should soo that thoy aro marked with tho firm name on tho front of tho picture.

Addresses by John Cotton Smith and Dr. 11. M. Thompson. A Notable Gathering of Low Tho Quaker General Sleeting at Richmond, Ind. General Discussion of the Quaker Indian Policy, The Rook River Conference of the Metho dist Church. EPISCOPALIAN CONGRESS. New York, Oot. 6.— Tho first mooting of tho Church Congress (Episcopal) in tho United States was begun this morning in Calvary Church by tho administration of tho holy com munion, Bishop Whipplo, of Minnesota, oHloiat- I ing, assisted by Bishops Bare, of Indiana, and Clarko, of Rhode Island, tbo Ilov. Dr. E. 0. Washburn, tbo llov. l)r. William 11. Huntington, and tho Rev. Gcorgo D. Wildos, of Now York. Prior to tho beginning of tho sorvico Bishop Whipplo, coming to tho chaucol-rai), alluded to tho custom of Roman armies on going to battlo of miring thoir right hands and taking oath to bo iruo to thoir country. Ho said that when wo • fool weak and weary wo should not only look upward with strength and hopo, but wo should tnko tho oath of allegiance to Christ our King. It was meet that the first of these gatherings should tnko place around tho Lord’s table, aud that, casting our eyes and hearts upward, wo should take tho pledge of loyalty to our Sovereign, This was a day for hearty love and deep brotherly sympathy. It was n day when mou learned that ono word spoken in charity was worth a thousand spoken in tbo sharpness of wit. Whon we kneel at tho table of tho Lord all harsh or bitter feelings should bo cast away or changed into love, and wo should never lose faith m God, as Ho in His own good ttmo would hostou the coming of Ilia kiuguom. THE AFTERNOON SESSION of tho Congress was hold in Association Hall, wbicii was densely crowded. In the absence of tho Bishop of Now York, tbo Rev. Alexander Vinton, D. D., of Massachusetts, presided, buj»- Eortcd by Biobop Whipplo, of Minnesota, aud lollop Clarko, of Rhode Island. Tho exercises opened by singing tho hymn “ Behold tho glories of tho Lamb,” after which prayor was offered. Tho Chairman then said that tho aim of tho Church Congress is to lift up tbo mind of tho churches to that sphere whoro ditlluutUeii aud quarrels coaoo. Tho Church Congress had INVITED MEN OF ALL DOCTRINES AND CREEDS for discussion. This coming together iti cool blood to discuss vital and important questions tended to tho unity thoy had desired to accom plish. Mou Imd been called from all classes to this Congress, and thoy wore all represented, and would each bo allowed an equal time for dis cussion. Thoy would discuss tbeuo questions fairly aud impartially, and would not bo hoard in tho Congress only, but throughout tho uuivoiao. Might thoy not thou invoke tho blessings of tho Great Master of Ceremonies in this groat inaug uration, aud Join with him in saying s •* Como, Lord Jesus, corao quickly; como with power.” DOCTRINE AND RITUAL Tim Chairman then announced that tlio sub ject of discussion for tho aftoruoou session Mas Tho proper limits of legislation rh to doctriuo ami ritual.” Ho iutroclucod ns tho first speaker, the Bov. Hr. John Cotton Smith, of Now York, who road a paper on tho subject. Ho said that tho limits to ritual and doctrine m our Church wore self-imposed. Ho rogaidnd tho special log* ialatiou of tho doctnuo and ritual with groat dis trust, and calculated rather to retard than to aid tho progress of.tho Church. Alluding to tho en deavors to spread medievalism in tho Church of this nineteenth century, ho said lhat'spocial log islation would tend to favor and spread its in troduction. Wo oio tho only body which it can bo claimed have a comprehensive "Church, offer ing no obstacles to fellowship and communion. Tho paper which followed was road by tho Bov. Hugh Miller Thompson, 1). D., of Now York. 110 said tho dogmas of immaculate con ception and infallibility wero never taught by tho Church, and therefore they wero nothing to her. This was an ago of dogmas.aud it behooved tho Church to guard horsoif. Ho, himself, did nos ndniiro Calvinism, as ho thought it tonded to loose living in Christian religion. Tho Church has over been loth to chaugo hor forms, as thoy have enshrined her faith. If any ritual is cal culate.! to injure tho Church, it should bo cut off, no matter how beautiful, or for a time, if it soom to injure tho Church, it should ho dragged from church observances.' Tho want of tho times was an authoritative faith in good, and tho Church would ever tell tho uamo old changeless story. Tho llov. C. W. Andrews, D. D., of Virginia, also followed with a brief paper on tho uamo subject. Tho hymn, “Como, holy spirit, heavenlytloro,” was then sung. Tho Bov. 13. S, Huntingdon discussed tho question. Ho led his hearers back to that up per room in Jerusalem where tho Apostles wero assembled, and ho imagined ho saw ono of them proposing a form of prayer, ami another sug gesting ceremonies necessary. Ho (tho speaker) could not see why ho might not do away with the. tonus High-Churchman mul Low-Churclmmu and unite on tho broad basis of Cathoho church man. A celebrated clergyman hud sold that if ho wero allowed to alter fifteen words in tho Prayor-Book ho would have 10, QUO converts, and ho (tho speaker) would say that if, in ono of tho forms of baptismal service, ho was allowed to change tho word “ shall ” into tho word “ may." much good would result to tho Church from tho alteration. Tho Bov. Dr. E. U. Washburn said wbon In looked ui tho itltuullstlo movement of thoChurcu of England, u movement which was acting in tho Church itself, and would work itsolf into a good result, ho believed that froo thought and dmeussion would bring at lust a victory and a true conclusion. Bishop Whipple, of Minnesota, thomrht that the queatloim about which wo wore askod to leg islate did not concern' our religion. There was one great doctrino over which nil agreed s the doctrine of Atonement. Ha believed that wo had too great n number of canoim to-clay to toll a Bishop dr minister what or wlmt ho id not to do. There novor was a time in tho hlstorv of tho world when tho work was as hopeful'as It is now. What wo wanted to-duy wan not so much legislation as working together hand In .hand for their Muster. Homo of hiu brethren had ex pressed foara for tho Church, but ho hhuaoif had no four. A hymn was aungand the oxorcißcs brought to a close hr tho benediction from Bishop Whipple. Tho evening session opened with a larger at tendance than that of tho afternoon. Tim Bov. Dr. Vinton presided. The subject of dibotißßion at this session was *' CLERICAL EDUCATION.” A resolution was adopted Bonding greeting to tho Church Congroßa now in session at Brighton. England, Tide w«b ordered to bo forwarded. Tho first napor on tho subject of tho evening was read by tho Rev. Edwin Harwood, D. D., of Connecticut. Ho spoke of training the clergy man. imd etid that many of tho clergy wore so CHICAGO. WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 7, 1874. Churchmen, weak In our Church that Ihoy were bringing it into disrepute.

Robu«t sons** was in order, and mon should prorich good, Bound, ra tional sense. Tho llov. Samuel Buell road a paper upon tho BAino, subject. The Bov. Binhop Clarke, of Rhode Island, dis cussed the question. Iu his opinion, tlio great difficulty arose from there being too groat a number of theological seminaries. Sumo of those Institutions had only a parly character, and just existed for this character, and mioh should not exist lu the Church. There wits a groat need of reform in all our institutions. Tho Kor. George 11. Norton, tho llov. Dr. Rich ards, and tho llov. P. B. Morgan followed iu brief remarks. Tho Bov. Dr. Thompson said tho rule of our Church was that womnstlmvenn educated ministry. Ho believed that tho standard of edu cation was as high iu our Church aa any other, am! far exceeded that of former years. Tho next speaker was tho lllglit-llov. Bishop Whipple, of Minnesota. Ho said wo needed scholarship, and to train young mon in Christian bravery and spirit. Tho mooting eloped with singing, and tho benediction was pronounced by Bishop Clarke, of Khodo Island. THE FRIENDS. THR INDIANA lEAIILY aiEETUCG. BV4c\at DlAoateh to Tin Chietwn Tribunt., Richmond, Ind., Oct. G.—Monday was occu pied willi a variety of matters, most of which woro bettor calculated to interest tlio members of tho Society than tho public at largo. Tho Boor and Tract Committee reported that they issued 219,400 pages of tracts, a largo part of which woro temperance documents, which have been extensively and industriously circulated. Joseph Dickinson, of Richmond, has charge of tho Depository. Tho Temperance Committee made a satisfac tory report, showing a great deal of vigorous work. Two hundred dollars woo- ap propriated for tho use of tho Com mittee tho ensuing year. Tho Hon. William Baxter is a member of this Committee, and has boon at work almost incessantly for several months. Ho receives no compensation, and pays ins own exponr.Oß. Dr. Henry Charles introduced tho subject of THE USE OF TOBACCO, and presented some vorv startling statistics and ablo argument against its use. lie stated that tho community hi which ho lives expended more money by nearly S4OO for tobacco than they did for tho support of ton schools- and soveu churches, and that tho Society of Fnonds of tho Maryland Yearly Mooting expend not less than SIO,OOO annually in tho same manner, wbtlo tho United States throw away tho vast sum of $25,000,000 on this un honllhful and disgusting habit. Ho also ascribed tho alarming increase ot heart-disease end par alysis to tho uso of tobacco. Tho Yearly Moot ing decided to refer tho matter to tho Temper ance Committee, and directed that in tho report tho number or Frlonds who cultivate the weed, also the number who make uso of it, and tho amount expended, should bo sent in next year. Tho appropriation to Eaatham College was re considered and revoked. I7’e the Associated PressA THU INDIANS. HioimoNi), Ind., Oct. G.—Tho following was presented to (ho Indiana Yearly Meeting of Friends in session hero to-day aud onthusiastio allv indorsed, and tbo Committee continued an other year. The Association Executive Commit tee of Friends on Indian Affairs presented tho following as tho fifth annual report of tho oou dition of tbo work under their euro: Our annual meeting was hold, as usual, In (ho tenth mouth last, at tbo olllco of tho Superintendent in Law rence, Kuu., at which wu hail nu opportunity of meet lug most of our agents and a cousldm-ablo num ber of teachers and others connected with In dian affairs. Wo also met in PhiladelphV hi tho fourth month Inst, and in tuo seventh month wo were called together at Lawrence, to consider subjects connected with tho warlike disposition fcctcd by a portion of tho Indians in our Southwest ern agencies. Various members of tho Gommittca have visited many of tho agencies under our care, mid. besides tbo encouragement thus given to the workers, wo feel that wo have derived much benefit from tho personal observation of these members, by which our views of tho present condUionof tho dlflU enltles amlnoccshitlcs of tho work havo bc» n matured. The eorerul yearly meetings of Friends In tho United Stains nro requested to ferwurd to Chucloi F. Cotibi, our Treasurer, at lUchmond, their respective quotas of S4,(WO fur tho uso of tho Committee during tho cur rent year. vnnv INTERESTING REPLIES hare been received from our agents to the Inquiry; "What uro tlxo greatest obstacles to Indian civil!J;v tiou?" Amongst thcsu causes the must prominent Bccm to bu, First, tho pre.jmUco of race, which boon greatly Intensified by tho general treatment rc toiveiT by them from white men, Second, the elmhc adhesion to thu traditions and customs of their fore fathers, which they regard as of a named character. Third, with Homo of the tribes, roving habits prevent a regular application of civilizing Influences, Fourth, the non-enforcement of tho I;vv. permitting tho intio duction of whisky, stealing of their stock, anil (ho de struction of game upon their reservations, Fifth, tho superstition or UNENLIGHTENED RELTniOCBMRSfI. In reference to this cauno one of tho agents writes : *‘l am convinced that all tho Indians uollove In tho divinity of tho Creator. Many of tho best minds nmougst them tire ro deeply imbued with religious subjects as to render them, in tho absence of an out ward revolution, fanatkeJ, superstitious, and specula tive as to tho real design of their Creator and life. 'Whilst they cannot realize the infinite love of the Groat Spirit, through Jesus Christ, there is yet within them such n dcslro for greater knowledge of this, to them, mysterious being, such a longing to bring them- Fclucfl into closer communions witu Him for the purpose of obtaining temporal and spiritual happiness, that they are led, In the absence of true knowl edge. to believe dreams as prophecies, and In inyßtcrlons and tons meaningless forma mi a proper method of worshiping Him, Hence at their dunces and feasts, what seems to uu gluttony and barbarian, to them is but a religious ceremony. They uro ns much continued In their religious belief na wo are In ours, and to dispel their illusions requires patience, continued effort, and great care not to Introduce la them religious subjects except ho far ns they can ap preciate them. It Is alpo exceedingly Important'to bring them in contact with thouo who:;* lives nre con stant proof of tho blessed result ) of Christian litllh. In two of our Nunhweslera sgundcfl violations of tho intercourse laws by white men Invo become in measlugly prevalent. Organized bunds of hone thluvcs Imva done an extensive businrsa in raiding * upon thu slock of tho Indians. Hunters, in open disregard of tho law and of tho promises of the Government to tho Indians, hAvo slaughtered thousands upon thournuds of buffaloes upon tho reservations. Whisky-peddlers have piled their wicked vocation, and the combinod influence of those cUnities of trespassers has at Unit provoked tho ludiims to retaliation, so that considerable numbers of them have determined to drive from their reservations all white persons not lawfully resident thereon. They rightly consider It tho duty of tho agents, us officers of tho Government, to protect their rights, and Justly complain because this prelection la not afforded. It is impossible, however, for our agents to Alford this protection unless they cull upon tho military arm of tho Government, This (hey huvo hesitated to do lest they should seem to bu trampling under foot un Important testi mony of thu Society, The extension of white settle ments to tho borders of thu Indian Territory has greatly Increased tho number of lawless men in that section, and thu non-enforcement of tho law on re- RorvatlouH proven an Invitation to this dues to select thorn ns tho Hold of their operations. Wo Invo at tempted again and again to urrnngo for the enforce ment of tho law by other parties, ho ns to leave onr agents free to attend lo other parts of their work. Wo aru still laboring for this purpose, hut fool that, unless speedily successful, wo shall be brought ton point in which wo imiHl either encourage our agents to enforce tho law.bysuch meant) as the Government provide.) for that purpose, or wu must withdraw from tho work ... ihnsn agencies. It U very evident that, without thu P»v -‘•on of law and order, our power to do good to thu : will he greatly impaired If not entirely destroyed, bm..t this i< a vital question, and ouu which demands tho thorough, enlightened coitHliluraUou of every member of mir religious roclety, Thu CONDITION OP IKK INDIAN YItADK at the several agencies haa claimed our repeated ctm eldmtluo. The Influence of those engaged Ju the trade with the Indium Is very (treat, mid wo are satin tied that, m many Instances, this Influence <a nut ou the Bide or Christian cWllliuitluu, We holiovo there are openings fur usefulness to thorough Christian capi talists who might ho willing to enter tide hold. In the employment of laborer*!, wo have desired our agents to give preference to Indians, whenever theso could bo induced to perform service. However necessary the old of white employes may bo ns Instructors, yot tho Indians must nut only be tauiiht now wobk iuioulu uk dumb, but actually to do it tbeuiEclves. Wo cuuuot call (hem civilized until they show themselves prompted to self support by tho same motives which actuate civilised people, la some of the tribes there is n ready response to c Hurts in this direction, but groat patience aud long perseverance will bo needed iu others to overcome their long-established habits and their aver sion to manual lulmr. Wo deem It important to keep before (ho minds of our workers tho thought that (heir real success is not to bo measured by the nmouut of work which they may procure to be done by white men alHiut the agencies, but by the otfei t of this work up on the Indians, It is quite possible to build houses. Inclose amt break up largo holds, and cultivate good crops by while employes, nud yet It Is very dllticult to leave the ludlahs who nro very much iu the same state of thrlftleaeneas and dependence lu which they wore found. Amongst the wild roving Indian* wo bRY* been wntitly laboring for years to Induce all whom we could influonce to nettle down upon small farms about tho agoncloa, llltborto wo have mot with poor nuecoss on account of tho dcprodallgns to which this class arc mibjocloit by wilder porlloim of iliolr ttihea.

If tho protection which this separation would afford could hare been extended, wn believe that many of thu Ampnhuoa and Comanehns, some of the Cheyennes and lUowas, and all of the Apaches in (lie Indian Ter ritory would at (his time have beuu following a life of Buttled industry, nud their children receiving the ben elU of Christian education. We hope bo to prolU by our experience as to mnho It the ally of true progress. Wo consider that wo imvu cause for much cncourago meut in the fact that there are under our care TIItUTKMN SCHOOLS foil INDIAN OIItLDItEN, all of which are In successful operation. There is an average attendance of 433 in these schools, and a total enrollment of over COO, When wo consider the efforts made for the educational, industrial, nud religious benefit for thao children, wo do not doubt that » great future good, both to themselves and to tribes to which they belong, must be the result of a continued prosecution of this brunch of the work. The d'ntrlbutloii of these schools for old and earo nhioug the.yearly meetings U having an excellent effect. Tho interest of the Friends is Intensified, and and is loenlizi d, and contributions of various kinds have been made, to tho great encouragement of the workers and of tho children. The deep personal in terest of many Friends has led many of them to nndio visits to these schools, and to use influonce for tho promotion of their prosperity. Wo dosiro very espe cially to commend tills branch of (ho service to tho continued nmi Increasing regard of our members. To us the master hasoommliled this portion of his field, and it will surely whiten into harvest if wo fail not iu our duty in this day of seed-sowing and cultivation. It must be a work of faitb, of hope, and of love.

No change has taken piuco in tho agencies employed here tofore. Suggestions wore made to increase the number of Secretaries, but tho Board does not dostru it, and tho pastors prefer to act as oi-olllcio agents for securing contributions, and missionaries temporarily redding lu this country should aid in tuo work. The groat usefulness of tho Women’s Board is recognized, amt recommendation made that thoro should ho such an organization in each church. After alluding to tho panic and ns unfavorable effect, upon benevolent contributions, tho report says the history of the year shows a need of tho most careful attention to tho pecuniary pros pects of the Boiud. The report cloaca with a statement of tho receipts and expenditures for tho finaucialycar, ending Aug. 111, 1871. From this it appeals that tho dobt of tho Board for old work is reduced from $1,8(18,7X1 Just year, to $835,261 at present, wliilo tho debt for tho now work is increased from $1,238,011 last year, to $2.-103,813 this year.

Mrs. Tilton is preparing a reply. In a letter to a friend, which wo have been permitted to soo, she says : i: lam very busy dissecting Thoo doro’slast statement, which lean riddle com pletely. A most painful and honrt-sickcmng la bor, but it is inevitable.” In regard to tho “ double letter," of which her husband Jiao made so mud. sho adds : ‘‘ I will send you a copy of tho H'brW, which I foci sure will make many converts lo tho truth of the so-called double letter. My first impulse, after I know that all my private letters wore ruthlessly published, was to send to mother immediately for her copy, If haply sho had preserved it, as I thought, iff printed it, Mr. Beecher and mvself would stand acquitted. Tho writer in tho U'oWd is ah entire stranger to me, yet, if ho had had a clairvoyant vision, ho could not have anaiyi/od my sorrow ing heart at that time more truthfully.” The article referred to, wo think, aimed to show that there was nothing In the loiter Ib&tm dlcatod guilt on tho part of its writer. Wo have already published the fact that a lady who aided in its composition know that it was intended to avow, at tho worst, nothing more serious chan divided mental affection. Wo may add, also, that tho name person was told by’Mis. Tilton, four years ago, of her having yielded to tho im portunities of her husband in charging Mr. Deqclior with criminal conduct,—a chargo which sho rottaoted almost as soon as made. When asked why she obeyed a command sho know ut terly wrong, she only replied, “i don’t know; I could not help it.” Her questioner, who had long known her, and understood all tho peculiar ities of her disposition, was satisfied, as sho still is, of her innocence and truthfulness.

WASHINGTON. Arraigned for Porjury—Tho Frood mrci’MßuTUiirM linulc-Arfulrs lu Ala bauitu Swctol Ditpateh to Tht Chicaao Tribune, ' ‘Washington, D. 0., Oct. fl.—Messrs. Harvey & Holden yesterday procured tho arraignment of Dr. O. B. Purvis for perjury. Purvis re cently brought suit against Harvey & Holden for refusing to famish him and Langston, botli colored, with a meal at their restaurant.' The testimony showed that they woro nut refused en tertainment, but were refused service at a par ticular table, pre-engaged by other panics. Purvis, however, swore point blank that ho was refused entertainment, hence tho charge of per jury. Tlio case came up in tho Polico Court to day, nud tho Prosecuting Attorney recom mended that the complaint bo dismissed, which was done. It will, however, bo carried up to a higher court mid pushed to trial. THE PHEEDMKN’S HAVINGS HANK. Tho depoHilora and friends of tho Freedtimn’s Savings Bank are growing uneasy. Tho bank was compelled to suspend because it had loaned money to disreputable favorites of tlio Adminis tration on tho poorest nocurity iu tho world, or no security at all. After suspension it was hoped some showing would bo made at least of n purpose to wind up with promptness and de cency, but tiioy are again disappointed. Tho concern owes 62,800,000, and ba% on hand only 618,000, and tho prospect for a dividend, however small, within a year or two is vnry poor, although the country was recently aseured by Mr. Purvis, one of tho Commissioners to wind it up, and the former Vice-President, that tho concern would doubtless pay 100 cents on the dollar. It seems probable that tho creditors will try to force a settlement of some sort soon if something to quiet their growing apprehensions is not done. AFFAIRS IN Ar-Ali.OtA.
