Scicnco Comes to the Aid of Love and Takes the Sting Out of Pleasure. From the St. Louis Republic. The gratitude of lovers is due Dr. Hurty, of the Indiana state board of health, for extricating the sting of fear from the kiss of love. Scientists have been trying to dis courage the pleasant practice of sip ping the nectar from the lips of love and beauty by intimating that mixed with the honey were swarms of horrid bacteria that were likely to give the sippers any kind of an old thing in the way of complaints from a bad cold to a case of diphtheria. Although we believe that there arp lovers who will tell the scientists and their bacteria to go to blazes and will take theic nectar at the risk of ufe and limb, yet the information is disturb ing and tends to embitter the honey and take the edge off the relish. Theru is a fly In the precious ointment of love's delight, and the courts of sweet dalliance are haunted by the specters of the sick room. But Dr. Hurty has shown how all of these spectres may be driven away and mortal men may again revel in the sweets of the ruby Up, as they did in the old days when ignorance was bliss. He says all that is necessary to make kissing healthful is to carfeully wash the mouth with a disinfectant before indulgence In the luxury. This simplifies matters for lovers. All they need to do Is to make free use of disinfectants and they can hit the ilps as often as they please. Of course, the first question when a man calls on his sweet love will be, "Have you disinfect ed?" and if the answer Is mutually satisfactory and we presume if it is not a bottle of disinfectant will be han dythen carbolized lips may meet car bolized lips In a dream of bacterlalers bliss. Thus romance, with the aid of science, survives, somewhat battered, but alive, the march of progress. WHITNEY'S WEEKLY BUDGET OF NEWS The Doinjs f a Swindler With a $10 Check. VERDICT OF A JURY CAUSES INSANITY A Few Conatr Haps and .Mishaps. Railroad Dots Along the LineThe The Cabinet Makers favor Mr. Grow Tor Secretary of the Interior. Discussion at the Farmer' Iti tute. Special to the Scranton Tribune. Susquehanna, Dae. 1. On Thanks giving Day a young man named H. Hetfeld. alias H. Conun. arrived In town, and, calling at the Presbyterian parsonage, represented to the pabtor, Kev. D. I. Sutterland. that he was a "converted Jew," nnd was endeavoring to get froi.i New York, where he had been employed, to Buffalo, where .-e resided. Ho proved himself an excel lent Hebiew scholar, and out of pity the reverend gentleman boarded him at a hotel for two days, while he "heard from Buffalo." On Saturday morning there came to Hetfeld, In care of the clergyman, a telegram, stating that funds had been sent him by mall. In a few hours a letter followed, enclosing a $10 check. The letter thanned Mr. Sut terland for his kindness and gave Het feld some good advice. Without en dorsement of course the check was valueless, but Mr. Sutterland accom panied the young man to the City Na tional bank, where he endorsed the check, which was cashed. Hetfeld was told by Mr. Sutterland, In the pres ence of the bank olllcers, that if he proved to be a swindler he would be placed behind prison bars. In the meantime the Buffalo bank upon which the check was drawn was wired, and soon the answer came that the maker of the check had no funds to hM credit. Hetfeld eluded the vigilance of Mr. Sutttrlund and walked to Great Bend, nine miles distant, where he was ar rested by Officer Storebach, of Susque hanna, us he was purchasing a ticket for Binghamton. He was brought to this place and locked up. He was brought before Justice Williams on Monday, when he made a confession. In collusion with his wife, who In Buffalo, he has been swindling clergy men and others throughout the coun try. He wrote the letter and fo-"ed the check. In default of ball he wa on Monday taken to th? county jail nt Montrose by Chief McMahon to await the action of the grand Jury. WHO CAN HE BE? The Binghamton Herald Is author ity for the statement that "Susque hanna contains a newspaper man who has a national reputation for writing stories of the most imaginative sort. It is said he takes opium and has dreams from the effects of the drug, and when he comes to himself again places on paper the wild fancies that Hashed through his brain while he was under the Inlluence of the opiate. The originality and improbability of the stories make them interesting reading." WHAT A VEKDICT DID. William Moon, of Liberty township, whose suit against that township for damages, occupied the attention of our county court for several duys, has be come Insane In consequence of the ver dict, wnich was against him. He drove off and unprotected embankment and received permanent Injuries of a serious nature. COUNTY HAPS AND MISHAPS. Great Bend has two quarantined cases of diphtheria. It is said that there are ten candi dates for county medical pension ex aminer. The olilce is worth from $4U0 to $6U0 per year. Hallstead hns a newly-organized Cos mopolitan Building and Loan associa tion. Near Great Bend, two Lawsville hunters in two days killed forty-five partridges. Messrs. Charles L. Crook, Richard A. Barber and John Maynard are candi dates for the Hallstead postmastership. "And there are others." The Susquehanna county Pomona Grange will meet in Springviile on Wednesday nnd Thursday next. And now New Mill'ord has the weath er signal service. She ought to have many other desirable things. One of the prettiest villages in Northern Penn sylvania, for years she has endured a series of business disasters of various kinds, enough to discourage any com munity. And still her people never say die, but continue hopeful of better duys ahead. May she Boon realize them! UA1LROAD DOTS. Delaware and Hudson Conductor Kenwnrthy, of Carbondale, who lost a leg at Forest City on Thursday. Is gradually recovering from his injuries. A large delegation of Susquehanna railroad men were In Cnrbondnle on Sunday, attending the union meeting of the Brotherhood. Some engineers on the Delaware div ision of the Eri3 have forty days to their credit In November. Every rnilrond organization In Sus quehanna is In a llouriahini condition. PURELY POLITICAL. Our State Senator lion E. B. Har drnbergh, wrote to the Philadelphia Times on Thanksgiving day: "My thanks are due because I nm not a candidate for the 1'nlted States senate nnd nm not likely to be." After the political cyclone. Brier Haines, of the Honesdale Independent, rises from the wreckage of "ruined hopes nnd blasted ambitions," safe in the possesion of the postotflce for his new building. All things to those who wait! Some of the cabinet makers hnve ar ranged to place our own Golusha A. Grow In the ofllce of secretary of the Interior. The major might do worse. Wayne county's forcnv.st politician, the unique Sarah I'lrich Kelly, files her claims for a cabinet position. Give a fut job to Sarah by all means. Then perhaps dear old Wayne will stop vo ciferating year in and year out for a congressman. HOME EVENTS.

A lodge of the Daughters of Rebekah will be instituted on Saturday evening, with over one hundred charter mem bers. Carl Weirs, formerly of Susquehanna, son of Master Mechanic C.

In Herrick Center on Thursday last, by Rev. T. J. Vaughn, Dr. A. L. Craft and Miss Clara Patterson were united in marrluge. The bride was until re cently a popular teacher In the Susque hanna graded schools. Can It be possible that Susquehanna's postal telegraph station Is sidetracxed somewhere? So soon done for, what was it begun for? The Dolawnre and Hudson and the Erie coal trains arc keeping the Jeffer son branch rails red hut. OTHER THINGS. In New York, recently, In the Princeton-Yale foot ball game, the public paid $47,153,50 to see twenty-two shock headed young men kick a pig skin through the mud for a brief period. And yet some people tell about the terrible stringency of the money market. THE OLD WAY Of Treating Dyspepsia and Indices, tioa by Dieting a Earburona and I elek Oar. We say the old way. but really It Is a very common une at present time and many dysepUcs and physicians as well consider the first step to take In at tempting to cure indigestion is to diet, either by selecting certain foods and rejecting others or to greatly diminish the quantity usually taken, in other words the starvation plan is by many supposed to be the first essential. The almost certain failure of the star vation cure for dysepsla has been proven time and acain, but still the moment Dyspepsia makes its appear ance a course of dieting is at once advised. All this is radically wrong. It Is foolish and unscientific to recommend dieting or starvation to a man suffering from Dyspepsia, because Indigestion Itself starves every organ and every nerve and every fibre in the Itody. What the Dyspeptic wants Is abun dant nutrition, which means plenty of good, wholesome, well-cooked food and something to nssist the weak stomach to digest It. This is exnetly the pur pose for which Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab lets are adapted and this is the method by which they cure the worst cases of Dyspepsia, in other words the patient gets plenty of wholesome food and Stu art's Dyspepsia Tablets digest it for him. In this way the system is nour ished and the overworked stomach rest ed, because the tnblets will digest the food whether the stomach works or not. na of these tablets will digest 3,000 grains of meat or eggs. our druggist will tell you that Stu art's Dyspepsia Tablets is the purest and safe st remedy sold for stomach trcubles und every trial makes one more friend for this excellent prepara tion. Sold at Mots, for full sized puck age at all drug stores. Clergymen Inform us that the "ad vance agent of properity" has already arrived, and is gringing In the weld ings. In the language of the evangel ist, "let the good work go on." Thanks to the new marriage law In York state, Pennsylvania couples no longer sneak across the line and get tied on the dead quiet, at Job rates. Rev. Ace is holding revlvul meetings In Brooklyn, this county. The rever end gentleman is probably never called "Mr. One Spot." COWS TAILS AND SKUNKS. Over In Canton, the recent Farmers' Institute discussed the very Important question, whether the length of the bone in the cow's tail indicates the length of time she will be In milk. Instances were related wh.'re the best milkers In an entire herd were picKed out by a stranger, who Judged quite largely by the tail. This settled, J. Benson Wright, in speaking of skunks, advanced the opinion that they were the farmer's friends; that their food was of grubs, wire worms, etc., and that the average farmer could better afford to suffer the occasional loss of an egg than to have the skunks for sake the farm. This opinion was con curred in by others who hud noted the habits of the little animal. In other words, the skunk is the farmer's strongest friend. MERELY MENTIONED. Sign all of the pustolllce petitions. It requires little time and labor and you will make fast friends of all the candidates. It's a good deal like giv ing away something that doesn't be long to you. You get a reputation for generosity and it doesn't cost you any thing. This reminds us that we wouldn't give a picayune or a petition as long as a ladder, signed bv Tom, Did. and Harry, if we didn't have a pull to go with it. It would be worse than a talless kite. The writer knows a man who de sired to be postmaster. Upon ins peti tion were the names of about thr?e fourth of the residents of the town, Democrats and Republicans the chair man of the county committee, the edi tor of the county paper of his party, a justice of the state supreme court, the the chairman of the state committee, etc., and so forth. Another man had the watermelon. And so it goes, a pull. The man with the pull carvc-d the names of a few business r.'.en and The Lehigh Valley road has aban doned the experiment in the use of soft coal for the locomotives of pas senger trains. The Lehigh's standing advertisement "No Dust, No Cinders," again means something. Through pas sengers hate soft coal as the devil hatts holy water. Whitney, AMERICAN MANNERS. From the Philadelphia Record. It is claimed by many perxons that In the hiirlyburly of this wurkailo) wo"lil of ours ihe American man Is fast losing h!s obl-t Imp courtesy of manner. The extreme tension upon which the business of Ihe country Is carried on. they elulin, prevents men from paying the name at tention to the little niceties of life which they have clone in the past. While this is doubtless true of many men, our crlll. s seem to have made a mistake in ualnif the word "m:ii;ncts" Instead of "ceremony," There is no question that the Americans It U often difficult to convince peo ple their blond is impure, until dread ful carbuncles, abscesses, boils, scrof ula or suit rheum, tiro painful proof of the fact. It is wisdom now, fir when ever there is any indication of blood, to tnko Hood's Ssirsapanlla, and prevent Mich eruptions iintl suffering. "I 1iad a dreadful carbuncle abscess, red, fiery, fierce and sore. The doctor at tended me over seven weeks. When the abscess broke, the pains wero terriblc.and I thought I should not live through it. I heard and read bo much about Hood's Earsaparilla, that I decided to take It, and my husband, who was suffering with boils, took it also. It soon purified our built tne up and restored my health bo that, although the doctor said I would not bo able to work hard, I have since done the work for 20 people. Hood's Snr saparilla cured my husband cf the bolls, and we regard it a wonderful medicine.'1 Mrs. Anna Petkhson, Latimer, Kauaaa. Sarsaparilla Is the One True Blood Purifier.

Stationary Engines, Boilers, KQlSTIKu tO POIN6 MACHINERY. are as a race using less ceremony in their social Intercourse now than they have in the past; but that their manners are degenerating admits of a doubt, Cere monial Is almost altogether matter of lo cality, differing In different places. That which would be considered the proper thing in one plxce would be conspicuous In another. The Innate good manners which denote a perfect gentleman' are found everywhere. The farther away wa get in our Boeial development from a monarchical court and Its custom the less ceremonial we nnd: In Its place are to he found simplicity and absence of form, through which true politeness shines us brightly as ever. However, this abandonment of eere monlul has In a Kreat measure made It very diltlcult to apply any fixed standard of manners, or to Kay that the omission or commission of any particular act proves a person to have been ill-bred. Wc are now far more apt to go to the other extreme and condemn as "b.id form" that which was once considered essential in a well-bred man or woman. This disuse of ceremonial comes from the American theory that all men are created equal; for In the European coun tries, which are governed by a very re strictive uoVleiy, the deference to titular superiors is the vary foundation of the soeial code and this code permits an a.--reogance to supiiosed Inferiors which would never be tolerated In this country. In our pronounced democracy such a show of respect would be considered as "toady ing." Another cause of th,1 decline of the lit tle courtesies is the advent of the type known as the "New Woman." who, glory ing In her newly found Independence, scorns the helping hnnd of her escort as being childish and weak. After having been snubbed several times n man natur ally doei not olTer that which is so evi dently not wanted. The advent of women Into business life would naturally have a tendency to do away with much of the formalism of clden tisie.i; but If a poll could be t:itcn nf ail Ihe stenographers and office clerks it nilfiht be easily shown that they are treated with the same pollieivss which it is the custom of every American man to show toward a woman, whether lu Ids employ or not. The truest pi,lHiiess end chivalry are not always clothed in the most polished exterior. It does not al ways take fine clothes and a mind (tiled with the small things of life to make a true gentleman. As the control of society has passed out of the hands of the few who hud the leisure to devote to the cultivation of ceremonial, and as in this country there Is no stigma on being "in trade," man ners are not a neee.Jsary adjunct to soeial success. They have not, however, been neglected; In a certain way they are more Important now than they have ever been In the past, because those who have sprung from the ranks and achieved wealth quickly, without having either birth or breeding at the start, are anxious to acquire a seeming familiarity with the customs and usages of polite society, and to be recognized as being on an equality with those possessing them. Thus upon caretul Investigation one comes to tho conclusion that as a race the American people are Just as careful of their man ners as they have ever been, but that as we have grown older as a nation nnd farthtr from the customs which our an cestors brought from monarchlal coun tries the ceremonial fashioned after court practices has fallen Into disuse.
