Oiling Up.

Just a little oil on the engine at the
right time may mean the difference be
tween life and death to the passengers and
crew. What oil is to the friction of the
delicate parts of the engine, Dr. Tierce's
Golden Medical Discovery is to the deli
cate organs ot tue
body. It eases
their labor, pre
vents the loss of
power and waste
of energy caused
byfrWion. Many
inu who was all

limbs ached when
he walked, whose
tack ached when
te laid down, who

Iculty, and cough

f Doctor rierce's
Golden Medical
Discovery, It pur
ifies the blood,
strengthens the
stomach and heals

Accept no sub

Mr. Chas. Huuwick, of Lenox. Macomb Co.,

life thau I da now. I have taken Dr. rierce's
Golden Medical Discovery right along. I can
now walk quite well with a caue, una hope to
throw eveu that away before long, and as I have

think your medicine the only medicine for me."

' EAGLE KILLED A WILDCAT.
Fanner Hayward, of Summersvllle,
killed an eagle near New Milford on
Saturday, While looking for a lost cow
he saw two large birds In a tree nnd
took them for hawks. He shot tho
lanrest one and the other flew awny.
When ho came to pick up the bird ho
found It to bo an eagle. In the brush
near by he found the body of a wild
cat, just killed. There were shins of
a fierce combat. Tho savage cat had
evidently been killed by the two great
great birds.
SOME SIDE ISSUES.
The world Is full of liars but the
fortune teller takes the palm.
A Montrose young lady has made
a "crazy quilt" out of letters offering
marriage. The letters are worked In
silk of beautiful colors.
A vicinity paper heads an Item, "A
Woman Slaps a Child at Point of
Dying." This seems tho very acme of
cruelty, yet from a physiological
standpoint, It Is as delightfully vague
as the announcement that recently ap
peared In a Blnghamton paper to the
effect that a dog had been "shot on
the North Side."
It Is a fact worth pondering that,
though the right falls around us it
never breaks, whereas the day breaks
but never falls. I offer this hint to
some struggling aspirant for political
honors.
In making presents do not look
Tor Rifts bej nnd jour pocketbook!
For trifles more thin Reins brine hllw,
That come with loe and heartiness.
A solid citizen of Montrose was so
mad on returning home to find that
during bis absence his wife had per
mitted coal wagons to go across the
lawn that ho refused to sleep in tho
house, spent the night in tho bain,
caught cold and died. Let us hope that
he has not gone wheie they use coal.
RAILROAD RACKET.
The Erie Is dolnir a heavv freir-ht
business.
The Delaware & Hudson improve
ments on tho Ninevah Branch are well
under way. The bin tirades are holnr-
cut down, and heavier trains can here-
aiter do hauled.
Considerable soft coal is coming east
over the Erie from Western Pennsvl.
vania and Ohio.
Business has boomed In the Erie
shops in Susquehanna for two years,
and yet, in November, hundreds of the
men will vote for "a chance." In the
Cleveland times, of blessed (?) mem
ory, tho shops were In bperatlon twenty-four
houis per week. Experience
teaches some people nothing.

TERRY MUBDEB CASE.
Plea of Voluntary Manslaughter Ac
ceptedOther Court News.
Special to tho Scranton Tribune.
Tunklmnnoek, Oct. 12. Tho trial of
James Terry for the killing of his
brother came to an abrupt conclusion
yesterday. The last witness culled last
evening was tho stenographer who
took tlie ante-mortem statement of
D. Terry fit the Wllkes-Burro hospi
tal. The defense objected to the ad
mission of the statement, but their ob
jection was overruled, and the state
ment read. It contnlned no now mat
ter, being substantially what tho wit
ness of the stabbing testified to,
namely, that the two men were quar
reling, that a fight resulted from the
quarrel, and that during the scrim
mage, while both men were on tho
ground, the Ftabblng was done. On
coming Into court a proposition was
made by the defense that they would
withdraw their plea of not guilty and
substitute one of guilty of voluntary
manslaughter, and after some discus
sion between the district attorney nnd
the court this plea was .occepted, and
the Jury discharged. Sentence wns
suspended for the present, and tho
prisoner taken back to jail. The high
est punishment that can be Inflicted
under this aspect of the case is a fine
of not more than $1,000 and Imprison
ment not exceeding twelve years.
The case of commonwealth vs. How
ard Moss, charge f. and b., was called
this morning after the disposition of
the Terry case. District Attorney Kln
ner appearing for the commonwealth
and Attorneys Henry Harding and Asa
S. Kecle for the defense. The defense
offered no testimony and submitted
the case without argument, and the
jury returned a verdict of guilty.
Sentence was suspended until Monday
morning.
In the case of commonwealth vs.
Lloyd Newell, charged with assaulting
an Arabian peddlor near Noxon, In
which defendant had pleaded guilty,
the defendant was called for sentence.
Several witnesses were called In order
to fix the degree of sentence, and the
defendant went on the stand to tell
his story. He is a very young boy,
and was evidently frightened, as he
broke down completely and could not
testify for some time on account of
his crying. After hearing the testi
mony, the court, in consideration of
the defendant's youth, suspended sen
tetnee indefinitely or during good be
havior. Commonwealth vs. S. F. Smith,
charge, soiling liquor to minors and
selling liquor on Sunday, grand jury
finds a true bill.
Commonwealth vs. Mrs. S. F. Smith,
charged with the sumo offenses, grand
jury returned the bill ignored.
The case of commonwealth vs. Ella
Harding, charged with committing an
assault and battery oh Station Agent
Miller, of the Lehigh Valley station at
Vosburg, was called this afternoon
and a jury drawn. On account of the
absence of Dr. Butler, of Wilkes
Barrc, n very important witness in
tho ease, a continuance was had un
til Friday morning.
The two commonwealth cases
against S. F. Smith were continued to
next term.
There being but one other case open
on the list for trial nt this term, the
case of commonwealth vs. Newcomb,
charge, false pretense, a jury was
drawn In that case and the balance of
tho jurymen were discharged from
further attendance at court during this
term.

tho whole system, involving the stomach, liver and kidneys. It is to this
form of catarrh that Dr. Hartman has for a long time been calling the at
tention of the medical profession. It Ik known as systemic catarrh. Po
runa seems to be tlie only specific for this phase of catarrh yet devised by
the medical profession. j
In a recent letter to Dr. Hartman, Mrs. Powell says:
"I have found Peruna to give satisfaction in cases of indigestion, com
plication of liver and kidney troubles , and it is one of the finest tonics I
know of for a worn-out system. I have used several remedies in cAses of
severe colds and la grippe, but none I consider of more value than Peru
na. X am glad to recommend Peruna to my friends as a reliable, safe and
successful specific. Mrs. Dr. C. D. Powell.

"J gives me great pleasure to testify

to Peruna from 12b)

who have taken It nnd I have seen
some remarkable euros through Its
faithful use, It Is by nil odds the
most reliable medicine I know of."
Many people still think Ujat, ca
tarrh Is a disease confined to the head.
This, Is a great mistake. Catarrh is
liable to occur wherever there Is a
mucous membrane. Not only does the
mucous membrane fill the cavities of
the head, nose nnd throat, but.lt also'
lines the stomach, bowels, kidneys,
bladder and pelvic organs. Every
duet, every cavity, every passage ot
tho whole body Is subjected to chronlo
catarrh because they are lined with
mucous membrane.

Gentlemen "At the solicitation of
a friend I used your Peruna and can
cheerfully recommend it as an ex
cellent remedy for nil catarrhal
troubles. It Is, indeed, a wonderful
medicine."
J. A. Barham,
Congressman from California.
When catarrh has pervaded several
organs of the body it is called systemic
catarrh. It may involve stomach,
bowels and kidneys, or liver without
disturbing the cavities of tho head at
all. People who have no catarrh In
the .head are apt to think they do not
have catarrh at all. A great many
people are slowly dying of catarrh
today of some of the internal organs,
without having the slightest Idea that
they are victims ofatarrh.

subject, every person should read Dr.
Hartman's latest book on chronlo ca
