Horned Rattler a Fake.
New York, Oct. 26.—Toomay, the
black rattlesnake, and his cagemate,
known as the “horned rattler,” a
freak snake, were found dead in their
cage at the Reptile House in New
York Zoological Park today. The fa-
mous horn of the horned rattler was
found on the floor of the cage. It was
made of wood. Both Toomay and the
horned rattler were snakes with a na-
tional reputation.
The fact that the horn or cone on
the top of the hcimed rattler’s head
was found on the floor led to an in-
vestigation, and the horn was found
to be nothing more than a piece of
wood whittled into a pyramidal shape
and inserted under the skin of the
snake’s head, which had been split
open "and allowed to grow back
around the base of the cone, probably
the work of some circus man to create
a freak snake.
“Did you have a pleasant summer,
Marjorie?” asked her old bachelor

«ANTRIGI”
THE NEWEST
DISCOVERY IN CHEMISTRY
This is a recent discovery of Doctor
Pierce, who is head of the Invalids’
Hotel and Surgical Institute at Buffalo,
N.Y. Experiments at Doctor Pierce’s
Hospital for several years proved that
there is no other eliminator of uric acid
that can be compared to it. For those
easily recognized symptoms of inflam-
mation — as backache, scalding urine
and frequent urination, as well as sedi-
ment in the urine, or if uric acid in the
blood has caused rheumatism, it is
simply wonderful how surely ®Anuric”
acts. The best of results are always
obtained in cases of acute rheumatism
in the joints, in gravel and gout, and
invariably the pains and stiffness which
go frequently and persistently accom-
pany the disease rapidly disappear.
Go to your nearest drug store and
simply ask for a 50-cent package of
® Anuric,” manufactured by Dr. Pierce,
or even write Doctor Pierce for a free
sample. If you suspect kidney or blad-
der trouble, send him a sample of your
water and describe symptoms. Doctor
Pierce’s chemist will examine it, then
Dr. Pierce will report to you, without
fee or charge.
NoTE : — French scientists affirm that
® Anuric” is thirty-seven times more
active than lithia in eliminating uric
acid, and is a harmless but reliable
chemical compound that may be safely
given to children, but should be used
only by grown-ups who actually wish to
restore their kidneys to perfect health,
by conscientiously using one box—or
more in extreme cases—as ®Anuric”
(thanks to Doctor Pierce’s achievement
is by far the most perfect kidney an
bladder corrector obtainable.
Dr. Pierce’s Pellets are the original
little Liver Pills. One little Pellet for
a laxative—sthree for a cathartic.
Proper Road Oiling.
The Highway Department of illi- |
nois gives these suggestions about ap-
plying oil to earth roads. Roads
should not be oiled until they have a |
permanently established grade. Low,
flat, undrained roads should not be |
oiled until proper drainage has been
attended to.
Roads that are used chiefly for
heavy hauling should, not be selected
‘or oiling. The main purpose of oil-
ing earth roads is to suppress the
Just and aid in the maintenance of a
smooth waterprocf surface. i
It is very important that the road
surface be oiled when it is free from
dust yet dry enough to absorb the oil.
Best results may be expected when
the road is reasonably dry for about
two inches on the surface.
The oil should be applied at the rate
of from one quart to half a gallon per
square vard of surface. If the road
has never been oiled before, use half
a gallon, but if it has been oiled regu-
largely in the past, a puart per square
vard a year will generally be suffi-
cient.
Sanding the road after the oil has
been applied is beneficial. The sand
should be applied as a light dressing,
using one cubic yard for about 150
square yards of road surface.
Criticised as Poor Bargain.
When the United States, on the ad-
vice of Secretary Seward, paid Rus-
sia $7,200,000 for Alaska in 1867,
there were many versons who criti-
cised the transaction as a poor bar-
gain. One member of ‘Congress sneer-
ingly spoke of Alaska as the “refrig-
erator of the United States.” But as
our annual dividend on the investment
is about 900 per cent. at resent, and
the margin is growing all the time,
nobody now seems inclined to ques-
tion the judgment of Mr. Seward.
This is what we received from Alas-
ka during the fiscal year ending last
June: Copper, valued at $26,500,000;
canned salmon, at $18,000,000; gold
at $16,000,000; silver at $1,000,000;
furs, ete., at $5,500,000. Besides all
this, account must be taken of the rich
coal deposits, worth far inte the mil-
lions, as well as other valuable re-
sources, such as petro.eum, tin, ete
Alaska came high in 1867, but it was
worth all it cost—and much more.
But—such is the perversity of human
nature—there are many good citizens
who are wondering whether it is
worth while for us to pay $25,000,000
for the Danish West Indies, for which
we have been negotiating through
several administrations.

Truth Triumphs
BELLEFONTE CITIZENS TESTIFY
FOR THE PUBLIC BENEFIT.
A truthful statement of a Bellefonte
citizen, given in his own words, should
convince the most skeptical about the
merits of Doan’s Kidney Pills. If you
suffer from backache, nervousness, sleep-
les:ness, urinary disorders or any form
of kidney ills, use a tested kidney medi-
cine.
A Bellefonte citizen ‘tells of Doan’s
Kidney Pills.
Could you demand more convincing
proof of merit?
Fred Scott, 247 E. Lamb St., Belle-
fonte, says: “I have to drive quite a bit
over rough roads and the jolting had a
bad effect on my kidneys. The trouble
started with pains across the small of
my back and if I stooped, I could hardly
straighten without sharp pains across
my loins. Doan’s Kidney Pills were rec- |
ommended to me by friends and I got a |
box at Green’s Pharmacy Co. They
brought me relief from the first. One
box made a cure and I have not had the
slightest backache since.”
Price 50c, at all dealers. Don’t sim-
ply ask for a kidney remedy—get Doan’s
Kidney Pills—the same that Mr. Scott
had. Foster-Milburn Co., Props., Buffa- |

Hood’s Sarasparilia. :
Catarrh Leads to
Consumption
IT REQUIRES A BLOOD REMEDY—
HOOD’S SARSAPARILLA IS THE
BEST.
Catarrh is as much a blood disease as
scrofula or rheumatism. It may be re-
lieved, but it cannot be removed by sim-
ply local treatment. It causes headache
and dizziness, impairs the taste, smell
and hearing, and affects the voice, hurts
the stomach, deranges the digestion, and
breaks down the general health, One of
its worst effects is the weakening of the
delicate lung tissues, which leads to con-
sumption.
Old reliable Hood's Sarsaparilla is
found to be of great service in the treat-
ment of catarrh. It goes to the seat of
the trouble, purifies the blood, and is so
successful that it is known as the best
remedy for this common dissease.
Hood’s Sarsaparilla strengthens and
tones the whole system. It builds up.
Ask your druggist for Hood’s, and get it
today. 61-44
