wide-awake, boys having completed his
trade at the L. K. R., machine shops
at IFllkesbarre, baa gone to Texas -where
he will be employed on one of tli, rail
roads in that state..
The manled representative oi tha firm
desiring to introduce their air brake for
freight car on the L. V. R. R and who
has been the guast of Landlord Horn, was
called to Philadelphia Tuesday. It Is said
tbat a meeting of the L. V. officials will
decide as to Its adoption or rejection.
The Philadelphia Timea In announcing
tbe sndden death of Will F. Du Four, of
IPilllanisport, stated that tin died In
Washington. It Is due to Dr. William
M. Dn Four and family to correct this e.rror.
The deceased died at home, tbe family
residence. He was apparently In his usual
kealth, attended the opera in the evening;
came home about eleven o'clock; t and
talked with, his mother; retlreq to blirootn
In jood spirits; conversed with Ms brother
Joe who occupied a bed In the same raom,
went ta bed. In the morning when the
father called them, Joe responded but did
not get up. At a second call he got up
and called Will; receiving no answer he
went to the bed and shook Will, but failed
to waken him; this wt beard by his father,
who cajtue up- stairs; a glance convinced
him tbat tbe sleep was unnatural; a bast;
examination, and an application of restor

were at once summoned; every effort
known was made to break tbe stupor, bnt
In about three hours the loving son and
brother was dead; causa appoplexy. Will

Catarrh
!S a blood disease. Until tne poison la
expelled from the system, there can
bo no cure for this loathsome and.
dangerous malady. Therefore, the only
effective treatment is a thorough course
of Ayor'a Sarsaparllla the best of all
blood purifiers. Tbe sooner you begin
the better ; delay la dangerous.
" I was troubled with catarrh for over
two years. I tried various remedies,
and was treated by a number of physi
cians, but received no benefit until I
began to take Ayer's Sarsaparllla. A
.few bottles of this medicine cured me of
this troublesome complaint and com.
pletely restored my health." Jesse M.
I3oggs, Holman's Mills, N. 0.
"When Ayer's Sarsaparllla was rec
ommended to me for catarrh, I was in
clined to doubt ita efficacy. Having
tried so many remedies, with little ben
efit, I had no faith tbat anything would
cure me. I became emaciated from losa
of appetite nnd Impaired digestion. I
had nearly lost tbe sense of smell, and
my system waa badly deranged. I waa
about discouraged, when a friend nrged
me to try Ayer's Sarsaparllla, and re
ferred me to persons whom it had cured
of catarrh. After taking halt a dozen
bottles of this medicine, I am convinced
that the only sure way ot treating this
obstinate disease is through tbe blood."
