IS IT RIGHT For an Editor to Recommend Patent MedlcinosP From Silvan Valley News, Brevard, N. C. It may bo a question whether tho editor of a newspaper has the right to publicly recommend any of the various proprietary medicines which Hood the markets, yet as a preventive of suffer ing we feel It a duty to say a good word for Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy. We have known and used this medicine In our family for twenty years and have al ways found It reliable. In many cases a dose of this remedy would save hours of suffering while a physician Is await ed. We do not believe In depending Implicitly on any medicine for a cure, but we do believe that If a bottle of Chamberlain's Diarrhoea Remedy were kept on hand and administered at tho Inception of an attack much suffering might, bo avoided and In very many cases the presence of a physician would not be required. At least this has been our experience during the past twenty years. For sale by all druggists. Matthews Bros., wholesalo and retail agents. OLYPHANT.

How the Creatures here Spend thp Winter Months. From Our Animal Friends. In February and in March more gen uine winter days come to use than nt any other time when we have a rea sonable and seasonable right to expect them. Our young people, then, may count upon the winter romps of snow balling, coasting and skating that they are more sure of now than they were In the arller days of 1U0O, The frozen surface of the ponds looks dead enough. It would scarcely seem that living wnter Is beneath, and 'it Is even harder to Imagine that animal life Is actually comfortably tucked away under that Icy cover! Where do you suppose the frogs have gone for the winter? They have soft, smooth-skinned bodies that would freeze to death If exposed to the open air temperature of this month. On the bottom of the pond they have made a bed for themselves in tho ooze nnd mud, huddled close together to keep one nnother warm. Water, us you know, freezes nt 32 degrees Fahrenheit. In a pond, Just as In your bath tub, thu water on tho top Is the warmer and the water at the bottom the colder. The reason Is that warm water Is expanded, nnd' Is lighter than cold, so that It rises to the surface, while cold water, which Is contracted, Is heavier and sinks to the bottom. But as water freezes it begins again to expand, nnd that Is why Ice Is lighter than water. The water under Ice forms a layer nbout four or five degrees above the freezing point, nnd. the animate sleeping there through the winter are sheltered In It. There they live and sleep until the spring sun wakens them, and there they are warmer and safer than If they being water animals were so foolish as to try to sleep anywhere else. Some small wnter bugs do creep ashore to hide In the crannies of rocks and walls, but they are little creatines that can fit into such places. The bigger animals would die of exposure. The frogs, the fresh water mollusks, know where to go for the grentest comfort, and there thoy stay their ap pointed time. It would never do for an nmphlblblous frog, for instance, to make a mistake, as a boy might, nnd to crawl out of his comfortable bed beforo he Is called, Nevertheless, when they nre called In the spring time the frogs and mullusks obey the sum mons. They don't Ho abed longer than they need to nnd that Is the moral of this talk about their winter life and ways. TROLLEY KILLING TREES. The Overhead Wire Held Responsible for Their Destruction. From Electricity. The single conductor overhead trol ley system has apparently much to nnswer.for. It Is held responsible for damage to underground pipes amount ing to thousands of dollars, nnd now another crave sin has been reglsterel against It. We refer to what might be termed tho electrocuting of trees, re garding which a prominent resident of Bay Itldge, Brooklyn, has this to say: "Five years ago there was the finest natural archway of trees between Six-ty-ilfth street nnd Fort Hamilton to bo found within the limits of Greater New York. Now, for blocks at a stretch, ono tree, at least, out of evory three Is blasted and the others, though OOUBT, TRY Thtyliave stood the teit of years. nu u.y. curcu luoutanoj 01 iCaies of Nervous Diicaiet, such las Dcbd'ty.PirzlDeii, Sleepiest' Fneis and Varicocele.

Wycmlng tvtnue and IT ov&N EAGLE n AO YEARS THE WORLDS ikl FAVORITE UtilDLU Borden's Condensed they are In leaf In the summer, are losing their vitality, und are surely doomed unless the destroying Influ ence can be averted In some way. "1 am confident that If tho public knew at the time the wires were strung through the trees tho effect the leaking electricity would have there would have been such a kick that the wires would, at least, have been more care fully strung. The public understood that the wires were covered with In sulating material, and that even, us In nearly every case, when they touched or rested on branches, the trees would be safe. "I have talked with electrical ex perts since then nnd have been told that there Is no such thing ns an In sulating material through which elec tricity will not slowly make Its way. It Is only a matter of tlmo before It will leak through any material In such a way as to destroy anything the wires may happen to bo In contact with. I think something should be done to save the rest of the trees. Their destruc tion Is an act of vandalism." Tho residents of that locality claim that in damp weather electric current leaks through the insulation of tho trolley feeder cables where they come In contact with branches of tho trees and passing through tho latter seeks the ground. In support of this theory It Is asserted that not long ngo a tree fell, when an examination of Its trunk tevenled the fact thnt It was decayed and hollow through a greater part of Its length. It Is also stated that wher ever a cable touches a branch It speed ily shows signs of decay nnd eventu ally dies. There nre any number of trees in this condition In that vicinity that before the trolley was built put forth abundant foliage. That escaping electric current Is re sponsible for this condition of affairs is very likely, for the best of Insula tions will occasionally break down after being long In use, nnd there Is no doubt but what a wet tree offers an excellent grounding medium. It is rather difficult, however, to explain why nn electric current at a compara tively low voltage should cause a tree to decay and rot, especially when it was reported from Brussels, aftelglum, some time ago that stray trolley cur rents were stimulating the trees along a certain avenue In that city nnd caus ing them to put forth an unusual number of blossoms. However, the condition of affairs in Bay llidge would seem serious enough to warrant a careful examination be ing made, ufter which If the trolley companies are found nt fault steps should be taken to compel them to Insulate their conductors more thor oughly, or, better still, so to run their cables that the leakage of current to n tree would bo Impossible. Such ac tion woul 1 serve ns a precedent and might in future prevent a similar con dition of nffairs elsewhere. In fact, It Is the least that is due to the resi dents of thnt vicinity, who naturally take a proper pride In their surround ings. LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE.

Without expressing any opinion as to the merits of either the man or the message, wo feel constrained tn record our emphatic protest against the action of Mayor Corcoran, at whose Instance Mr. Dilllonls was arrevted while In the exercise of the inalienable right of ex cry Ameri can citizen freedom of speech. Such action we consider an Infringements of the rights of con scliniL and of the constitution; a dishonor to our city, and a blot upon our Hag. In xiew nt the farts that the lecture procei'ded ipilctly for tin space of some ten or fifteen min utes and tli.it the ceidencc given in court he Mr. Dilllonls, and supported by other responsible parties, Indicates that the mayor forbade a con stable to letnove the man who first Interrupted the speaker, It Is manifest that Instead of too lecturer violating the city ordinance by causing disorder, it was the Interrupter who was guilty of causing the breach of law In disturbing an orderly assembly, anil who should have been ar rested by Hie mayor and tried for bis offense. believing that the mayor allowed himself, xvlthout full con,lderatlon to be unduly Influ enced by some who, from motives other than those of order and liberty, wished to prevent Mr. Dilllonls addressing a peaceable and law abiding Lithuanian society, and fo unwisely com- mine .1 hliiHelf tu an unlawful and inexcusable inteifennce with religious liberty and the rights of fri'0 speech, wc express the hope that the major, and all who with him were instigators In tills un-American procedure, will voluntarily offer to Mr. Dilllonls the leat amends they cjn make for the Injustice' and the personal Indigni ties laid upon him -a frank apology. And fur-i- er, we call upmi the mayor and his officers to avoid a lepetlllon of such acts, and in future tn afford to Mr. Dilllonls, or any other hull xldiial who may wish to hold a lawful meeting within the city precincts, the full protection which tho laws of tho nation guarantee In the exercise of the rights of conscience and liberty of speech. 8.

From Harper's Bazar. The few Americans who have calleil upon her In Calle San Jose have found a good-looking Filipino woman of about thirty years, clad In tho grace ful dress of the Islanders, nnd resem bling thousands of her less prominent race sisters. She Is better looking from the Filipino stnnd-polnt than from ours; she Is plump, pleasant fac ed, and, to her country-folk, distinctly attractive. She will not talk Spanish with a foreigner; It Is said she can speak this language, but does not caro to do so, To hold converse with her It Is necessary to enlist the servle-x of a Tagalog Interpreter. Today "la Senora Presldento" hat the nppearancc of a woman who has suffered, nor Is tho term of her un happlness yet past. Her eyes, with their expression of sadness and dejec tion, show her distress of mind. For this there la due cause. Her husband Is probably a fugitive, hiding in tho mountains, and every day lessens his chances of ultimate pardon at our hands If wo capture him. Ho may be dead; If he still lives he Is In danger every minute of the day, wherever he may be, 1 do not believe Mrs. Agtil nnldo herself knows where ho Is, nor that she has heard from him since she came to Manila. She Is fully aware of the dangers which surrounded him In the Igorrote country when she left him last Christmas, because It was tho unmistakable hostility of these sarnu Igorrotes that decided her to seek the protection of our lines. She lost her Infant daughter last Novem ber, and later her three-old son died In Bacoor. The death of her son Is nn established fact, but for the pres ent those who surround Mrs. Agut nuldo have deemed It wise to withhold from Iter tho Icontlrmoitlon of this news. Sho has heard that Miguel died In Uacoor, but the assertions of her friends to the contrary are half convincing, so she broods on the mat ter, wondering why the child Is not brought from the country to see her. In a couple of month? the reason for this present secrecy will have passed; there will then have arrived a new Exchange.
