The following method is said to be
effective in stopping new shoes from

put a few drops of oil around the shos

"I am willing to risk my reputation
as a public man," wrote Edward Iline
to the Liverpool Mercury, "if the worst
case of smallpox cannot be cured in
three days by the shr pie use of cream
of tarter dissolved in a pint of hot water,
drank at intervals when cold, is a never
failing remedy. It has cured thous

A sensational story was told to Jus
tice P. B. Tarr, of Titusville, of a man
recently coming to Titusville who
traded his wife to their boarder for a
suit of clothes and a pair of shoes. Af
ter ten years of married life, the wife
appeared to favor the boarder, but the
latter did not live up to his bargain, and
the husband was seeking to obtain legal
satisfaction. —Warren Mirror.
The humane society agent at Altoona
has entered a suit against Patrick Logue
on a charge of cruelty to animals, The
case is a peculiar one. Logue, about
five years ago, purchased a good horse
and devoted it to family use. One day
during the winter he was sleighing with
his family when a part of the harness
broke, allowing the sleigh to slide down
against the horse and partly over an
embankment. The horse made no
effort to get away and Logue vowed
that the horse should not do another
day's work for its action: for had it
started the family would have been
thrown into the ravine and badly injured
if not killed. This was four years ago
and the horse has not been out ofj the
stable since. Logue feeds it and cares
for it, but has steadfastly refused to
take it out, hence the prosecution.
Many children and some older people
have a great fear of lightning Parents
are in a great measure to blame for this.
A brewing storm is a signal to shut up
the house tight and sit around in silence
and fear. Such actions are sure to in
spire fear in the minds of the children.
The Weather Bureau has just issued a
bulletin showing the loss of life by
lightning. The figures cover a period
of eleven years and show that lightning
caused an average of about 2.53 deaths
annually per unit area of 10,000 square
miles. In comparison to deaths by ac
cident upon railroads or in the ordinary
industrial pursuits the loss of life is
very small. The danger of being killed
by lightning is as one chance in 10.00 C.
The fear of a storm is greatly the result
of training. The parent does the child
a great wrong in training it to dread a
storm, for the fear once created rarely
ever leaves the mind.
