The lire In Itself was only trivial, a stove-pipe having been blown down in a summer kitchen in the rear of McAndruws hotel, near Swetland street. But to see Ed. Pethrlck drive tho Columbia's chemical apparatus up Main avenue Is a treat which Is worth ' more than passing notice. Hundreds of children gather on the thorougfare, i mothers with babes In their arms rush out of doors and join In the crowd that follows In the wake of the fire men, business men and clerks drop their work and rush to the front doors of their stores, and for the time being everything seems to be temporarily suspended. Then there is George Myers, who operates the Chemical, standing on the rear of the fire-fighting machine, pumping up the pressure on the hose ns if it was play to ride on that nar row step, Tho horses are imbued with the spirit of the occasion, and seem to know that every eye Is centered on their movements.

It Is a dark brown color and Is al most too muddy for rough cleaning purposes. The Inhabitants have been obliged to skirmish around after well water and have been put to great In convenience. A visit to the Duninore Water com pany's reservoir yesterday revealed tho fact that It Is almost empty. Only a pool covering about one hundred square yards remains, and this is almost as highly colored aa the sur rounding earth.

The connection are all made and a plenteous supply of pure water is ready to be turned into the borough mains, but no ngreemnt has as yt been reached. A committee from tho borough coun cil waited upon President Scranton yesterday and urged him to do all In his power to make satisfactory terms with the Dunmore company.

Mr. and Mrs. John Zang, of Aldnr street, aro receiving congratulations 'S How it is Made or Marred There Is nothlits more subtle than woman's beauty. It eludes all at tempts to analyze It. A woman may have the measurements and lines ot the Medlclan Venus and yet lnck beauty. Or she may drfy artistic standards and be known everywhere us a beautiful woman. There Is, how ever, one kind of beauty which Is recognized by all and which Is everv Woman's downr. n tiniilltv tn wlilr.li ttin French have given then ame of "The Boautv of Youth." Many a time wo turn to watch some sweet, young girl, Impressed by her beauty. But If we analyze the beauty we .find It Is made up of smooth skin, clear aomplexlon, bright eyes, ruddy lips nnd rounded contours. That beauty ought to last always. But how soon we see it fade. Tho young wife looks at her yellow skin, sunken cheeks and hollow eves and marvels at her own falling off. And the younger girls still retaining the beauty of youth wonder "what her husband could have seen attractive In her," not knowing that It will be their turn to fade very soon. HOW TO KEEP BEAUTY. In order to preserve this beautv of youth, to retain the charm of sweet ness and freshness which belongs to maidenhood, the prerequisite is to un derstand that the chief foe of wo man's beauty Is womanly Ill-health. Young women are often very careless of themselves. The temptation of the dance, or of the sletghrlde overrules their prudence, and the result is sup pression and perhaps Irregularity. This Is only the beginning of worse evils, and yet this alone is sufficient to steal the freshness from the face. The womanly health should be pro tected with the utmost care and the first symptom of derangement or dis ease should be met by the use of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. "I will always recommend - Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription, 'Golden Medical Discovery' and 'Pleasant Pel lets,' for they cured me when doctors and other medleines failed," writes Mrs. Mary E. Lewis, of Tanner. Gil mer Co., W. Va. "For fifteen vears I suffered untold misery. When I commenced taking Dr. Pierce's medi cines, I had given up all hope of evpr getting well. I could not lie down to sleep, and everything I ate would al most cramp me to death. Was very nervous and could hardly walk across the room. I only weighed ninety pounds when I commenced taking these medicines; I now weigh one hundred and forty pounds and am havlmr better health than ever before. My friends all say they can hardly be upon the event of a bouncing baby boy on Sunday. Mrs. Daniel Quick, of 520 Pear street, is ill at her home. ANOTHER CHALLENGE.

I have taken fifteen bottles of 'Preiorlp Hon,' fifteen of tho 'Discovery' and fifteen of the 'Pellets.' I know that If it had not been for your medicines I would not have been living today." Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription Is a woman's medicine. It Is not offend as a cure-all but It Is confidently rec ommended as a sure and safe remedv for nil those diseases of women which nro curable by the ubo of medicine. It establishes regularly, dries the drains I wmen uestroy tno strengtn ana neauty of women, heals Inflammation and ul- 1 ceratlon and cures female weakness.

It la one of the triumphs of "Favor ite Prescription" that Its results are so palpably and visibly real. The cure of womanly diseases by this medicine Is proved by the gain In flesh and weight, by tho restoration of youthful freshness, by the renewed strength and ambition, and by all the outward and visible signs of robust health. "I enjoy good health; thanks to Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription and 'Golden Medical Discovery," write Mrs. J. J. Schnetyer, of Pontlac, Liv ingston Co., 111. "Have taken six bot tles of each kind. I was taken sick last February and the doctors here called It 'Grip.' I lay for four weeks In bed, and when I got up- I found I had 'displacement'! Had such aches and pains In my back and limbs, could not stand any length of time. I knew that our home doctor would In sist the first thing on an examination, and that I would not submit to, un less I was dangerously sick, and then It would be too late. If anyone had told me your medi cine would do so much good I would have said, 'Oh, no, not that much good.' I can say truly I was surprised at tho benefit I received. An old friend of mine said to me, 'Why, what is tho matter with you, you are getting so young again'? I told her I had taken six bottles of Dr. Pierce's medicine, and that If she would do likewise she would feel ten years younger, too." There is one clause In Mrs. Schnet yer's letter, which voices the senti ments of thousands of sensitive wo men.
