THE SCKAOTON TIUBlKv'E-TJUUKSIJAY, JANUARY' 9, 1002. 8 33 INDUSTRIAL AND LABOR PLYMOUTH MAN HAS INVENT ED A NEW COUPLER. It Is Said That It Is a Great Im provement Over Those Now In Uao. Overall Manufacturers of tho Coun try Have Eormod an Organization. Object Is to Put a Stop to Competi tion Lackawanna Steam Plant Is About Completed Tho Lackawan na Board for Today. Jncob li, Stubbleblne, oC Plymouth, hus an application pending for a pat ent on un Improved automatic car coupler. The contrivance Ih designed to work on any cur, whether in tho mines or on the willroads, and If udopt ed it will be the means of saving many lives and limbs. It Is constructed In such a manner that there Is no neces sity whatever of going between the cars to open or close it. As tho cars nre bumped together they couple, and by lifting a light lever on the side they become uncoupled. Tho working model shows an upright bolt which drops Into u notch on each car as they come to gether. It Is practicable on any curve or grade of the road or angle of the cars. The couplings at present In use on the railroads of the country aie a de cided Improvement upon the old meth od, but Mr. Stubbleblne's invention is apparently far In advance of tho latter. With this Improved coupling the dan ger of wrecks by the present compli cated contrivance falling to the tracks Is removed ami the rallioads of the country as well us the employes will be the gainers. It Is the Intention of tho inventor to see the practical rail road managers of this section, with a view to having them use his coupling so that Its merits may be fully demon-t-trated.

Ife? OHRsssssssssf Surprising Results A Simple Internal Remedy Makes Itemnrkablo Cures of Catarrh. People who have used sprays, in halers, salves mid washes for catarrh and have found how useless and In convenient they nre, will bo agreeably surprised at results following tho use of a pleasant, Internal remedy In lab lot form; druggists everywhere admit that Stuart's Catarrh Tablets, which they soli at no cents for full sized treatment, Is tho safest, most effective and popular of nil' catarrh remedies. Nearly nil cheap cough mixtures and throat lozenges contain opiates; these cheap medicines give u temporary re lief, especially with little children by destroying nerve sensation; the Irrita tion In throat, which causes coughing Is temporarily removed, not by remov ing the cause, but by deadening tho nerves of feeling the Irritation Is not felt although it Is still there and will promptly leturn. Stuart's Catarrh Tablets is the best remedy to remove catarrhal secretion, whether In the nose, throat or stomach because they are composed of whole some antiseptics like Red Gum, lJlood Hoot, etc.; when you use those tablets you know what you are putting Into your system and not taking chances with cocaine, opiates or similar poi sons found in so many catarrh cures and cough medicines. Dr. Ramsdell, In commentlnc on ca tarrh cures, says: "I can heartily rec ommend Stuart's Catarrh Tablets, be cause they contain no cocaine nor oth er dangerous drug found In so many advertised catarrh cures. I have known of many cases of long standing catarrh of the head and throat com pletely cured by the dally use of these tablets for several weeks. One case In particular, which I could not reach with an inhaler or spray and where tho catarrh caused dally headaches and a noticeable loss of hearing was entirely cured by this harmless but ef fective remedy." Dr. Walnwrlght bays: "I never hesi tate to prescribe Stuart's Catarrh Tab lets for catarrhal headaches and ca tarrhal deafness because I know them to be perfectly safe for child or adult and have seer, many remarkable cures resulting from their regular dally use; because they are advertised and sold in diug stores is no reason why any good physician should not use them because we should seize upon the means of euro wherever found." Stuart's Catarrh Tablets are espe cially valuable for catarrhal colds in children because they are pleasant to he taste and may be used freely to break up severe colds and croup at the very beginning. All druggists sell the remedy at fifty cents for full sized package. A little book on cause and cure ot catarrh mailed free by addressing the F. A. Stuart Co., Marshall, Mich.

The splendid success achieved by us in this department, and the praise bestowed upon our goods, speak more eloquently in their behalf thaln any eulogistic words in our power to bestow. Corset Covers.... 8c to $3.75 The 8c Corset Cover is made of Cambric, well fin ished. This is the lowest price in these little gar ments. Others at 12J4c 19c and up to $3.75, Drawers 19c to $4.50 The 19c Drawers are made of Masonville Muslin.
