Testimony That Cannot
Be Doubted
I wish to testify to the good that
your Swamp-Root did me. I was both
ered with Kidney trouble and lame
back for some three years; had taken
medicine from several doctors but
without effect. I finally tried Dr. Kil
mer's Swamp-Root, and after taking
three bottles was completely cured.
I have also recommended it to several
friends who have been completely
cured of kidney and bladder trouble.
In one case a friend of mine in Toledo
took two bottles .of Swamp-Root,
which dissolved a stone in his blad
der. He has not been troubled since.
Also a friend in Springfield, Ohio, who
was employed at the Springfield Metal-
I I!o Casket Company was completely
I cured of kidney trouble after taking
Swamp-Root. I give this testimonial
unsolicited, fcr It may be the means of
helping some one else.
Yours gratefully, %

Newport, Pa., March 17.—Francis
Shaeffer, of Saville, was greatly shock
ed yesterday at noon when he went in
to his barn and found his hired boy,
Lewis Shatto, aged 14 years, lying on
the floor dead. Upon further investi
gation it was found that the boy had
hung himself. A coroner's jury was
impaneled and from the evidence pre
sented it was decided that the hanging
was accidental.
Tho boy had gone to the barn to I
throw down fodder from overhead. A
rope on the end of which was an iron
rixig hung in his way, and having
thrown it aside the rebound came
with considerable force, knocking out
one of his front teeth, evidently ren
dering him unconscious, and in some
mysterious way entangling him with
the rope.
The boy's father died a few years
ago. His mother, Mrs. Ellen Shatto,
lives in Fairview. The remains will be
brought here to the home of his
grandmother, Mrs. Geprge Cless, at
which place funeral services will be

YOU WERE VERY SILLY
DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
I met a young man two years my
senior at a party not long ago, and
we instantly took a great liking for
each other. He asked me if he could
wear my ring, and I said yes, but to
surely give it back because it be
longed to a boy friend. It is three
weeks since then, and I have not heard
from him and can't get the ring back.
BOTHERED.
The girl who lets every stray ac
quaintance, or even a friend, borrow
her jewelry is always punished, and
deserves to be. You must buy your
boy friend another ring, and always
remember the lesson.

faculty and fifty maids employed by
the faculty and students.
Aroused by Flumes
Miss Charlotte Donnell, of Wiscas
set, Maine, and Miss Virginia Moffat,
of Orange, N. J., both seniors, were
1 the heroines of the tire. They occu
pied rooms on the third floor, under
the laboratory where the tire originat
ed, supposedly from spontaneous com
bustion. Their rooms faced on the
court around which the building was
constructed, and the glare of the
flames aroused tljem. Miss Moffat saw
a bright light reflected on the transom
over her door, and springing from her
bed, rushed into the hall, where she
met Miss Donnell.
"There is a fire," she cried.
Miss Donnell replied: "I'll ring the
fire alarm, while you call the girls."
Miss Donnell ran down a flight of
stairs and started the fire gong on the
second floor. Miss Moffat hurried
ulong the halls pounding on every
door. She did not yell "fire" but com
manded: "Put on your wraps quickly."
Halls Soon Filled
Miss Donnel then joined tho other
and together they roused all those who
had not already responded to the gong.
Soon the halls were filld with startled
young women. Some carried personal
effects in their arms, but the greater
number had not waited to save their
belongings.
The halls were already filled with
smoke as the girls formed in line and
marched from the building. The col
lege volunteer fire brigade was early
in action and made sure that none of
the sleepers was left to the flames.
Once outside several of the girls
sought to re-enter the building to save
valuable papers in the offices. Miss
Mary Smith, of West Chester, Pa.,
secretary to the dean, made a bold
clash Into the dean's office on the first
floor and with the aid of Edward C.
Monahan, an employe, saved most of
the dean's records.
Founder's Widow Sees Fire
Mrs. Henry Durant, widow of the
founder of the college, who is 90 years
of age, witnessed the fire, being taken
to the scene in a wheel chair.
Fire companies from Newton, Nat
ick and Needham responded to an
alarm, but were unable to stay the
flames, which were burning them
selves out when tho students assembled
at chapel at 9 o'clock.
President Ellen S. Pendleton an
nounced that the college would be
closed until the end of the usual Spring
vacation, April 7. Sessions were to
have continued until March 27. Tho
President askod all who could to make
arrangements to leave Wellesley to
day, so that accommodations could be
had for those who would be obliged to
remain.
Scores of telegrams asking that
money and clothing be sent from their
homes were dlspatahed by the students.
Officials of the college made arrange
ments to provide funds for any who
were In immediate need, and citizens
threw open their homes to the stu
dents.
The college telephone switchboard
was located in the burned building
and telephone connection with the
outside world was cut off soon after
the fire started. Miss Rachel Free
man made her way to the nearest long
distance line and, calling up Boston,
gave the first news to the press.
Miss Anna Margaret Miller, Miss
Clarissa Claster, Miss Kathryn An
drews and Miss Hermione Barker, the
four Harrlsburg girls at Wellesley,

Money Saved
by Making Your Cough
Syrup at Home
'l'akM But a Few momenta,
and Stops a Hard Cough
In a Hurry .
Cough medicines, as a rule, contain a
large quantity of plain syrup. If you
take one pint of granulated sugar, add
',i pint of warm water and stir about
2 minutes, you have as good syrup as
money could buv.
If you will then put 2 , / £ ounces ol
Pinex (fifty cents' worth) in a pint
bottle, and fill it up with tho Sugar
Syrup, you will have as much cough
syrup as you could buy ready made tor
$2.50. Take a teaepoonful every one,
two or three hours. It keeps perfectly.
You will find it one of the best cough
syrups you ever used—even In whoopinfl
cough. You can feel it take hold
usually conquers an ordinary cough in
24 hours. It is just laxative enough,
has a good tonic effect, and the taste
is pleasant
It is a splendid remedy, too, tot
whooping cough, spasmodic croup,
hoarseness and bronchial asthma.
Pinex is a most vaulable concentra
ted compound of Norway white pine
extract, rich in guaiacol and other
healing pine elements. No other prepa*
ration will work in this formula.
This plan for making cough remedy
with Pinex and Sugar Syrup is now
used in more liomes than any other
cough remedy. The plan has often been"
imitated but never successfully.
A guaranty of absolute'satisfaction,
or money promptly refunded, goes with
this preparation. Your druggist has
Pinex, or will get it for you. If not,
send to The Pine* 0o„ Ft. Wayae, inii»
