The two-story fame dwelling of Jacob
Mendle, located on Irving avenue, near
Hemlock street, was totally destroyed
by a fire which broke out about 2
o'clock yesterday morning.
Tho family were awakened by the
smell of smoke nnd upon arising found
the kitchen in flames. They had just
barely time to escape from tho house
before the entire lower floor was a
mass of flames. An alarm was turned
in from box 40 at Webster avenue
and Hemlock street and all the South
Scranton companies responded. Some
little dilllculty was found In securing
water and as the house was too far
gone to permit of its being saved the
firemen turned their attention to tho
adjoining houses all of which were
saved.
The explanation offered by Mendle
and his family that the flro originated
from nn overheated store pipe was ac
cepted by Superintendent Ferber after
investigation. Mondle's loss is nbout

A prominent manufacturer has of
fered a prize of one thousand dollars
for the best essay on preventive medi
cine, "believing that a proper exercise
of preventive medicine Is ot incal
ctilablo benefit to tho human race."
Tho tendency of medical science Is to
ward preventive measures. The best
thought of tho world Is being given
to tho subject. , It Is easier nnd better
to prevent than to cure. It lins been
fully demonstrated that pneumonia,
one of the most dangerous diseases that
medical men have to contend with, can
be prevented by tho use of Ohtunbcr
loln'a Cough Homcdy. Pneumonia al
ways results from a cold or from nn
attack of Influenza (grip), and It has
been observed that this remedy coun
teracts the tendency of these diseases
toward pneumonln. This has been fully
proven In many thousands of cases
in which this remedy has been used
during the great prevalence ot colds
and grip In recent years, and can be
relied upon with implicit confidence.
