Mrs. E. L. Reodt, living on Fifth St..
Emporium, Pa., says: "Doan's Kidney

suffered with a disordered condition of the
kidneys for years and the secretions were
irregular and painful in passage. L suf
fered with constant bachache and pains
through tny loins and was unable to rest
at night on account of these annoyances.
When I learned of Doan's Kidney Pills
1 obtained a box from L. Taggart, the
druggist. This remedy gave me almost
immediate relief. My back does not ache
any more, I am able to sleep well at
nights aud the other symptoms have dis
appeared. I obtained more relief in a
shorter time, from Doan's Kidney Pills
than from anything else ever used. This
remedy has my hearty endorsement."

Terrapin.
Terrapin begin laying about the mid
dle of May and hatch in about thirty
du.vs. The female terrapin scratches
a hole in the sand wMi her fore paws,
deposits her egir". t' ,, om thirteen to
nineteen, in it an ', tiieu covers them
up and leaves the he.;t of the sun on
the saud to hatch out the youutf terra
pins. Tliey are noi much bigger when
hatched than a man's thumb nail and
are as soft as dough. They crawl
around pretty lively and begin to hunt
for their food, consisting of small tisli,
crabs, etc. The first summer they are
quite small, and about the first to the
middle of November they go into their
winter quarters. These consist of
some soft mudhole in the marsh or
on the bottom of some stream. Here
they sleep until about the middle of
April or later, when they come out and
are of quite respectable size, say four
inches in breadth. The next year they
are six inches and the third seven
inches in breadth. It is undoubtedly
while the terrapin slumbers in the
mud that he acquires the peculiar
qualities for which we admire him.
It is the only flesh known which one
can crush in his mouth with his tongue
without the aid of his teeth. The oth
er animals run about, sleeping only at
night. The terrapin sleeps night and
day for six or seven months of the
year and takes his night naps, too, for
the balance of the year.—Baltimore
Sun.
Pen Portrait of Grieg.
Here is as vivid a picture of Oriegthe
man as any that has yet been drawn.
A correspondent who saw the noted
Scandauavian composer when he re
ceived bis honorary degree at Cam
bridge, in England, in 1894, makes It
for the Manchester Guardian: "It was
a sad and a strong face that we saw,
one might almost have said a grim
face, but that there was nothing of
hardness in it, a face which must have
Inspired both respect and affection in
all who met him. Yet as the little,
old looking man stood there in the red
and yellow gown of a doctor of music
there was something incongruous
about his appearance, the head, en
circled with long, straight, white hair,
appearing above the still stiffer,
straigbter lines of gaudy brocaded silk,
which descended to the ground in the
form of a regular cone, and the simile
of one visitor, who remarked that they
made him look just like a penwiper,
was Irresistibly accurate."
Beer Capacity of a Munich Porter.
An English family touring In Ba
varia called at the world famous Hof
brauhaus. the pride of Munich, writes
our correspondent. To the waitress
serving them the head of the family
in a matter of fact way simply held
up his five lingers. To the family's
astonishment, the waitress came back
with five quart pots filled to the brim
with beer. The visitors bravely strug
gled with the beer, but managed to
dispose of only about a quart between
them. Knowing that it would be con
sidered an insult to leave beer, they
called a porter and ordered him to
finish it. In less time than it takes
to relate if the Bavarian' accomplished
the task. Wiping his mustache, he
demanded sixpence for the "job" and,
having obtained the money, instantly
ordered and emptied yet another quart
pot.—London Mail.
A Waiter's Amazing Wail.
The waiter spoke indignantly.
"Men go about," he said, "complain
ing of being mistook for waiters, but
it is on the other foot really that the
shoe rests. I's waiters are the real
complainants In these cases of mistak
en identity. Our kicks are sincere.
The others' ring false. For at dances
and balls and such like crushes many
a young man makes money by being
mistook for a waiter. How does he
make money? Why, he is tipped, and
all them tips he pockets, never think
ing of handing them over to then
rightful owners. At every big affair
we count on a loss of 5 per cent
through the dishonest advantage that
impecunious young swells take of be
ing mistook for waiters." Philadel
phia Bulletin.
Savage Sense of Humor.
Lecturing on New Guinea, A. H.
Dunning said he once offered a native
some smelling salts. After going
through extraordinary contortions tUe
native went away, returning soon with
another native, whom he compelled to
make acquaintance with the salts. The
two brought a third, and so on until
the whole village had been victimized.
The savages watched each new suffer
er with the keenest delight and took
good care not to let him know what
fate awaited him.—London Standard.
Ohio's Pioneer Town.
Marietta was founded in the spring

was named after the unfortunate

Buck tail Monument Erected.
The Bucktail monument was erected
last week by Mr. Alex. Robinson, Jr.,
representing the John M. Gessler's
Sons, builders, of Philadelphia, and it
has been declared one of the handsom
est in the state. The tablets are yet to
be placed, the builders making but one
panel while four are necessary for the
four tablets.
The figure surmounting the stone
work was made from a cannon used in
the battle of Gettysburg, and repre
sents the Bucktails and their garb at
the time they left their native haunts
for the front.
W. H. liauch, of Philadelphia, and
F. F. Kirk, members of the Bucktail
Commission, met with the local com
mittee at the Commercial hotel. Mon
day afternoon, First Vice President J.
F. Parsons, of Emporium, presiding.
Secretary of the Commission Rauch
stated that Monday, April 27, 1908,
had been selected as the date for the
dedication, that being the 17th anni
versary of the day of tbeir departure
from Driftwood. It is also the birth
day anniversary of General Grant.
The annual reunion of the Bucktails
will be held on that date and also on
April 28th.
The committee is endeavoring to
secure the presence of several very
prominent persons, of whom more will
be said later. A large number of in
vitations will be issued and the biggest
event in the history of the county is
promised.
Miss Margaret Kirk, of Cross Fork,
a grand-daughter of Corporal F. F.
Kirk, will on that occasion recite an
original poem by-Frank Leon Beeby,
of Kennetb Square, after which Miss
Margaret Feuser, of Philadelphia, a
niece of Sergeant W. 11. Rauch, will
unveil the monument.
The committee selected Congress
man Barclay to accept the monument
on behalf of the Bucktails and the citi
zens of Cameron county.—Driftwood
Gazette.
"Miss Petticoats.".
The play "Miss Petticoats" present
ed at the Opera House last evening was
greatly enjoyed, especially by those
who have read the book, the company
doing remarkably well in rendering
the characters as portrayed by the
author, Agatha Renier, whose nick
name is "Miss Petticoats" appears first
in lowly circumstances, living in an
old ship, her only companions her
grand-father and some old sailors. The
later acts reveal her in her brilliant
evolution from this quaint home,
through wiles of adventurers and the
vicissitudes of the smart set in her final
graduation into the aristocratic circles
where she dominates over her enemies
in an exciting deal in stocks
Miss Fiorine Farr played the part of
"Miss Petticoats," and she gave a lithe
some, sweet interpretation to the earl
ier scenes; and in the more strong cli
maxes of the latter acts she proved her
self an actress of force and dramatic
intenseness The denoument and the
exultation that take place in the last
act was fine acting, and indeed it may
be said of all the company that they
took tbeir roles well—Hudson, N. Y.,

A tickling cough, from any cause, is
quickly stopped by Dr. Shoop's Cough
Cure. And it is so thoroughly harm
less and safe, that Dr. Shoop tells
mothers everywhere to give it without
hesitation even to very young babies.
The wholesome green leaves and tend
er stems of a lung-healing mountain

ties to Dr. Shoop's Cough Cure. It
calms the cough, and heals the sore and
sensitive bronchial membranes. No
opium, no chloroform, nothing harsh
used to injure or suppress. Simply a
resimous plant extract, that helps to
heal aching lungs. The Spaniards call
this schrub which the Doctor uses,
"The Sacred Herb." Demand Dr.
Shoop's. Take no other. Sold by all

The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all its stages, and
that is Catarrh. Hall's Catarrh Cure
is the only positive cure now known to
the medical fraternity. Catarrh being
a constitutional disease, requires a con
stitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh
Cure is taken internally, acting direct
ly upon the blood and mucous surfaces
of the system, thereby destroying the
foundation of the disease, and giving
the patient strength by building up
the constitution and assisting nature
in doing its work. The proprietors
have so much faith in its curative pow
ers that they offer One Hundred Dol
lars for any case that it fails to cure.

The Pure Food Law.
Secretary Wilson says, "One of the ob
jects of the law is to inform the consumer
of the presence of certain harmful drugs
in medicines." The law requires that
the amount of chloroform, opium, mor
phine, and other habit forming drugs be
stated on the label of each bottle. The
manufacturers of Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy have always claimed that their
remedy did not contain any of these
drugs, and the truth of this claim is now
fully proven, as no mention of them is
made on the label. This remedy is not
only one of the safest, but one of the
best in use for coughs and colds. Its
value has been proven beyond question
during the many years it has been in
general use. Por sale by L. Taggart.
