The Mimi as a Disease Producer.

"We know that a congested liver
produces gloom. perhaps leading to
suicidexanoth’er kind of gloom is per-
haps due toa congested spleen: a dis-
orderly heart produces apprehension
of coming danger; certain intestinal
conditions produce fear; morbid con-
ditions of other 'organs mar the sense
of strength and manhood and womanli-
ness. We know also a few converse
truths: That gloom or despair may in-
duce jaundice: that good news will
make the heart beat vigorously; that
cheerfulness will calm and regulate its

FIRST CHURCH IN THE KLONDIKE.
Good \Vork Begun by the Presbyterian
Board of Home Missions.
The Rev. S. Hall Young and Dr. W.
A. McEwen, .two young Presbyterians
sent out by the Presbyterian Board of
Home Missions, started for the Klon-
dike last August. The two mission-
aries reached Klondike City just be-
fore the winter set in and before all
means of travelling had been closed.
On their journey they were robbed of
the greater part of their provisions.
heir first step was to rent a hall in
which to hold services. They leased
a small house for seven months for
$850, payable in advance. The upper
floor was divided into six 8X10 rooms,
which were let very readily for $20 a
month in advance. After the first ser-
vice had been held, however, one of the
lodgers came home drunk and set fire
to the building. The house was totally
destroyed. The loss was a great blow
to the church, as much of the material
burned could not be replaced at any
cost
Services were next held in the
“Opera-House,” which is the largest
room in the city. The missionaries
spent all their money in fitting up the
new church, but when their cash was
gone they found the miners very will-
ing to give credit. The rudest fur-
niture that could be found cost the
church $200. Each Window sash cost
one-half ounce of gold, or about $10.
Twelve joints of stovepipe cost $1.50
each. The pews were made of rough,
unplaned boards, supported by rough
logs. The missionaries borrowed six—
teen rough boards to be used for seats.
The church is always kept warm and
comfortable, in spite of the artie cold,
to provide a meeting place for the min-
ers away from the saloons. The read-
ing—rooms have already become very
popular. The miners have taken great
interest in collecting reading matter.
The library consists of ’about 1,500
books, magazines and pamphlets.
The labor bureau, which has been
running for some time, has also done
much good in relieving those unable
to find profitable employment—for the
Klondike has its unemployed poor the
same as New York. A number of we-
men from the surrounding country
have taken an active interest in the
church work and a regular chapter of
the ,ristlan Endeavor Society has
One of the most im-
portant acquisitions of the church is a
plane, which is played at the various
services by Mrs. Kaiser, a woman
banker from Jacksonville, Tenn—Nev:
