Local lumber dealers and contractors confirm the report published in the last issue ofthe American Lumberman in Chicago, which gives the siturtion of hemlock trade in Pennsylvania, as fol lows: "For years it has been prophesied that tho beginning of tho end of Penn sylvania hemlock was in sight. Just now it is manifest, for the first time in the history ofthe wood, that the supply of timber has become so far diminished and the remainder is held in such few and strong hands, that from this time forward there will a decided restriction in the production of hemlock lumber in Pennsylvania. The United States Leather Company either owns or con trols perhaps seventy-five per cent of the hemlock stumpage of the State." Corning dealers nay that in the past six months, hemlock lumbar has been going up in price and there is every prospect for a further rise. Aside from the almost complete control over Penn sylvania hemlock, exercised by the • United States Leather Company, the owners of forests are holding back their hemlock for fear of the total consump tion of the forests. The trees are cut before they are half grown in many cases, because the lumber is in such demand. Even now, it is stated, it is cheaper to buy lumber from the South than from the Pennsylvania forests. Depends on Advertising. An observing winter notes that the self-made man of today starts with lit tle means, but with a purpose to make a large success. Usually he makes some mistakes which depress him for a time, but he renews his experiences, and in most cases lie learns that mer cantile success depends on the sale of more goods, which means interesting more people through publicity. In other words, he depends on newspaper advertising. THE CHARLESTON EXS'OSITION. Reduced Rates via the Pennsylvania Railroad.

"For three years I was troubled with dyspep sia so that I could hold nothing on my stomach. Many times I would be un able to retain a morsal of food. Finally I was confined to my bed.

Mitchell, Fnlford, Md., "During a long illness I was troubled with bed sores, was advised to try DeWitt's Witch Hazel Salve and did so with wonderful results. 1 was perleetly cured. It is the be.r? salvo on the market." Sure cure for pitas, sores, burns. Beware of counterfeits. R. C. Dodson. Better dry bread at home than roast, meat abroad. Health and Beauty. A poor complexion is usually the result of a torpid liver or irregular action of the bowels. Unless nature's refuse is corried off it will surely cause impure blood. Pimples, boils and other eruptions fol low. This is nature's method of throw ■ ing off the poisons which the bowels fail ed to remove. DeWitt's Little Early Risers are world famous for remedying this condition. They stimulate the liver and promote regular and healthy action of the bowels but never cause griping, cramps or distress. Safe pills. It. C. Dodson. Every bird likes its own nest best. COUGHS AND COLDS IN CHILDREN Recommendations of a Well Known Chicago Physician.
