Only the war editor can tell where one begins aud the other leaves off. THE military experts are trying to decide whether Stoessel was a hero or a coward; but thus far they have failed to call in any of the Japanese officers for testimony on the subject. IT is sad to think that Senator Quay, no matter how old he might have grown, could not have lived to hear the beautiful things that have beeu said about him since his death. DR. OSI,ER says a man is useless after forty, but it.is the age at which some women are fairest, falsest and most effective. What chit of twenty and five could have done the work of Mrs. Chadwick '! THK czar appears to be in a bad hole: lie can't depend on his soldiers to wdip the Japanese, and if he ends the war and brings them home he can't depend on them not to turn iu and help lick the government. CoMruLSORY Education iu the District of Colum bia became a law by the action of Congress this week. This is designed not so much for the education of children, though that is, of course a consideration, but as the first step toward abolishing child labor. KANSAS has voted down the woman's suffrage law. Politics iu Colorado didu't seem to have undergone the purification that the injection of the feminine vote promis ed and Kansas being a near neighbor decided to defer the enfranchisement of women for awhile. IN teu years Prussia has reduced the average of railway accidents from (S.S per million train kilometres to 5.07. Wrecks are three times as frequent in the United States. It is not in the technical school system alone that we may learn much from Germany if we will. MR. BRYAN will support the President's measures as an instalment, but he believes that there can be no solution of the greatest of American economic questions until the railways are as national as the Mississippi. l"p --on this point we can only repeat our conviction that time ivill prove the Democratic leader to be right. CZAR NICHOLAS appears to be something of a fatalist. lie is reported to have expressed himself to the effect that he will talk peace when his army shall have been decisively victorious or crushingly defeated. Iu cither contingency any other course is scarcely conceivable, but the good judgment of going onto one or the other is being questioned by it majority of the powers. CONGRESS is on its last lap this week. In a few days the session will be over and the members may return to their homes aud read the newspapers. If they are wise they will read carefully the weekly newspapers iu the various counties of their districts and consider well what they are saying about the needs of the country. The local papers reflect local sentiment. The editors are close to the people. They write as they feel. Politicans and statesmen should not get far away from the local senti ment. THE search for the remains of John Paul Jones in Paris is growing "warm." The excavations on the site of the old cemetery whsre he is believed to have been buried have brought to light- a leaden coffin, which, it was I) >;> ed, might prove to be the object of tha search. The inscription upon the coffin, however, shows it to be that of an Englishman buried iu 1790, two years before the djath of John Paul Jones. While this is a disappoint ment, it indicates that the explorers are on the right track. It seems to establish the fact thai they have actu ally found the old burying ground, and if the English nun's coffin has been recovered, that of the American hero may be. THE FOLLY OF AGE GENERALIZATIONS V°l R. OSLER'S, a professor of medicine at Oxford ij University, assertion that men are "no good'' after tiiey are sixty is another illustration of the exceeding foolishness of generalization. Every thing depends upon the man—his heredity, his habits, his sense, his stamina. Some men are mere punk at forty. Others simply well seasoned. Some men inherit a strong constitution. Others are con genitally weak. Somo have taken care of themsel ves. Others have "gone the pace." To draw the same dead-line for all is manifestly not merely unscientific—it is silly. The French have a saying that "a man is no older than his ar teries." The Americans might substitute stomach or nerves. But years are not the true measure of efficiency anywhere. THE HUSBAND AS A "NICE DOGGIE " OIIERE are a lot of women in this world who think that there's only one side to the married relation, and that's their side. When one of them marries she starts right out to train her hus band into kind old Carlo, who'll go downtown for her every morning and come home every night, fetching a snug little basketful of money in his mouth and wagging his tail as ho lays it at her feet. Then it's a pat on the head and".Nice doggie." And he's taught to stand around evenings, re trieving her gloves and handkerchief, and snapping up with a pleased licking of his chops any little word that she may throw to him. But you let him start into have a little fun scratching and stretch ing himself, or pawing her, and it's "Charge, Car lo 1" and "Bad doggie !" WE DISAGREE. If* E are sorry that we tire obliged to differ with 4l|[l some, but all cannot bo perfect harmony, and while you may think this is right others may consider it all wrong. County officers should not be re-elected, especi ally the second time. Two terms may be all right but more than that is all wrong. There is not a county in the State that does not have more than one good man, and when any per son asks for the third term they are imposing upon their friends. Whether it has been customary or not to con tinue men in office in Montour county, we cannot agree with those who favor it. One of our esteemed contemporaries this week claims that a good man " should be re-elected," and sighted the services of the late Win. Johnsor. as Register and Recorder for fourteen terms in our county. Mr. Johnson did serve Montour county for over fourteen terms, it is true, but he never had strong opposition and was very popular. If any more popular person would have opposed liiin, we claim it was wrong to retain him in office. If it is an honor to hold office, is it not right to. share the honors ? If it is a burden, is it not right for them to be shared < If any good whatso ever comes from anything, is it not pure selfishness to want it all for one's self i . RUSSIA'S SELF-DELUSION. /«A NE of the reasons alleged by Russia for refus- Vil/ ing to listening to any proposals looking to wards peace is that she now has the home situ ation well in hauil; that is, that the revolutionists, strikers, students, railroaders and many others have been cowed, and that no more trouble may be ex pected from that quarter. Meanwhile, she will be able to direct all her energies to supporting and strengthening her Asian armies, wnu aa equal chance to emerge victorious from the contest. The news from every part of Russia, from Finland on j the north to Odessa in the south, and eastward to the Caspian, contradicts that in the most emphatic way. The evidence that conies across the ocean from day today chows that instead of the troubles are growing. It is true, that there are no such violent outbreaks like the first demonstra tion in St. Petersburg, but, instead of that one, there are now half a hundred, and they are distribu ted all over the country. Government workshops have been brought to a standstill. Government utilities, like railroads, have been halted, anil must be run by soldiers; the police in the larger cities are striking for higher pay; troops have to guard all the railroad stations between Moscow and St. Petersburg to prevent their destruction; the tel egraph lines must also be guarded. Even the re serves, the soldiers who have been called out togo to the front, are refusing to go. Protending to know that "the war is over," they tell the officers in charge, "We know you simply want to make money out of a contract for feeding us; we will not serve;" and off they march. Those are very dangerous symptoms, and they are increasing in numbers and extent instead of growing less. The peasantry are beginning to take a hand, and it promises to lead to tin uprising of that large class. They are availing thomselves of tho disturbed situation of the empire to demand land for themselves. In some localities they have been told by secret agents that tho Czar has decided to allot thoni lands in severalty, and they have actually gone to work to parcel out the estates of the large landed proprietors among themselves. How, in the face of all these internal disorders, the Czar and his advisers can persuade themselves that the situation at home is improving is difficult to understand. If to what is said above we add that the Finns stand ready to revolt against the taking away of their guaranteed constitutional rights; the people of Poland once more to rise in insurrection, and even some Asiatic provinces in a state of mind that will plunge them into any excess, however ill advised or dangerous, one fails to seo how the Rus sian Government can claim to have the case well in hand. A defeat in Manqhuria would augment these troubles ten-fold. The fact appears to be that noth ing but the lack of arms in the hands of the people prevents a general uprising, with probably a dis placement of the Romanoff dynasty. COMMON SENSE AND FEET. AT the convention of shoe manufacturers at the Hotel Astor, New York, last week the opinion was general that tho French heel is on the wane. Secretary Wile explained tho philosophy of this return to common sense: With the advent of the rainy day skirt came a more sensible shoe, with flatter soles and a lower and thicker heel. This proved so successful that now the women are adopting that style of footwear for every occasion, and tho physical comfort they derive from it compen sates for auy lingering uneasiness that they may be out of style. The tight shoe, with pointed toe and stilted heel, is one of the barbarisms of civilization. It ruins the foot, throws the body out of balance and cramps every movement of the wearei. Fortunately tho notion that a tiny foot is a point of beauty is exploded. Nature established its just proportions between the parts of tho human body, and all efforts to change her rules have only increased unsliapoliness and discomfort. There . never were more beautiful feet than the Greek sculptors modelled. They were strong supports for fretMiioving, healthy bodies. And tho Greeks wore merely sandals to protect the soles from injury, leaving tho toes unconlined. Tho same benefits to day can be had from low, fiat, broad soles, well gripped to the ankle and heel to prevent rubbing. The modern woman has until now chosen her crip pled Chinese sister for a model instead of the Greek. GAME NEGLECTED, fjttt R. RITTER, of flic office force of the Intelli- SU gencer, reveals to us somo startling news con cerning the severe conditions of tho present winter on tho existence of food for birds and other animals in the rural districts. Sunday he took a walk in the direction of the hospital for the insane, and near about that institution ho noticed a number of crows flying and hopping about a pile of refuse that contained some sort of stench that, evidently at tracted thorn by its odor. It was quite noticable that the birds suffered some disability, for as a rule, these pests ara very alert and high themselves away i at the approach of man. Upon closer inspection it was found that half of tho flock was blind. Mr. Ritter caught one and found it very light in weight and weak. Scattered about were the bodies of many 1 dead ones that had died, possibly, of starvatian. The crow is generally very hardy and if the i present winter has been so severe as to exterminate, so many of its kind, what can we expect of the more delicate birds and other animals that are less bold ■ and not so strong of constitution. CLEAR THE PAVEMENTS JUST now Mill street presents a very ungainly appearance, the ice and s IOIV preventing it to bo cleaned right for somo months. With tho open ing of Spring and the sweeping of the street tho merchants should be forced to keep their stores in side. That is to say, give us more room tin the i sidewalks. We will venture to say that over half of the twelve-foot side walk has been appropriated to the display of some of our merchants' goods. We believe in advertising, and are satisfied this is a most attractive way of displaying what one has to dispose of, but when it goes so far as to boil hinder ance to travel it becomes a nuisance and is therefore the duty of Borough Council to care for. Lot us hope that tho pavements will not be i used as grocery and dry goods advertising stands, but that other means will be employed to attract ■ customers in the future. THERE are a great many Russians in the United States who are looking with deep anxiety on the move- I ments in their native land looking to freedom aud a re presentative government. To them it is no doubt au eu | couragiug sign that the students and the educated men of the empire generally have shown sympathy with the move ment for reform. There is promise of something substan tial in the laud parliament soon to be called, and if the I czar is in earnest in calling iu his people for cousultation , it may be that the reign of terror will be short lived. The i Russians in the United States are not prepared to do more than to offer words of cheer for their oppressed fellow meu. A BOY has bteu arrested in Washington for steal ing books from a department store. Copies of Sluike -1 spear, Byron aud Burns have been found on him and he says it was the only way he could get books to read. THIRTY-SIXTH ANNIVERSARY OF KNIGHTS OF PYTHIAS. i An Elegant Affair —Armory Hall Crowd ed to Its Fullest Capuclty—Over Six Hundred Present. Beaver Knights of Pythias uii.eoi.iK'ii in..i V...11.J-sixth anuiver tii.j i....in armory ou Saturday eveu , ing. While it was private—confined j to the members and their families and a few special invitations—yet the I I large room was crowded to its utmost ' capacity. The entertainment was ex cellent, and all who were present voted it as line as they ever heard. Our orchestra never played better, and a male quartet from Taylor, Lackawanna county, sang a number of selections, which were highly ap preciated—every one being encored. These gentlemen are all vocalists of the first order, and their voices harm onize sweetly, and during their rend ering held the large audience spell bound. The other parts of the program, viz: Recitation by Miss Diet/., of Ply mouth; songs bv C'athryn Hoffman and Mary Miles, both small tots, j were excellent and added much to the I successful entertainment. The Waitress Drill, giveu by eight small girls, showed careful training ! and good taste, making it oue of' the most acceptable numbers of the program. W. J. Rogers, in his German per sonations, as usual, pleased all. Geo. W. Miles, one of the charter members, made the principal address, confining his remarks principally to the origin and work of the order, and briefly showed the work of the frater nal orders, in removing the prejudice engendered by the war and completed the work of making us a united peo ple, closing on this line by saying that in the many thousand lodges, whose six hundred thousand Knights assemble in every lodge room, North and South alike, the Star Spaugled Maimer occupies a conspicuous posi tion. And an insult to it would be resented as speedily ou one side of the old line as the other. Mr. Miles is a ready speaker, aud his remarks are extemporaneous. He does not have a strong voice, but his pleasing man ner and tone are quite forceful euough. The seating capacity and standing room was all taken up. More than six hundred were estimated to be there. The Lodge is very prosperous and harmonious aud while they never fail 1 in responding liberally to the unfor tunate or distressed, yet to-day their funds are quite large, having been carefully invested, and the interest adding to it increasing each year. This large surplus is a sure guarantee that the future is provided for. Caster in 1905. The coming year is one in which uncertainly might arise as to the date of Kasler, if the Prayer Hook rule were strictly followed, says London Nature. Doctor Downing, 1". K. S., of the Nautic.il Almanac office, slates that inquiries have In en addressed lo him on the subject. According to the Prayer ISuok, Kasler Day (on which all other movable feasts and holy days depend) "is always the first Sunday after the full moon, which happens upon or next after the 21st day of March." In 1905 tlie moon is full on the morning of Tuesday, March 21, at 4b. 56min. Greenwich time, and, therefore, Easter Day would seem to lie the Sunday follow ing, March 26. 15ut, exp ains Doctor Downing, "the moon leferred to iu the ecclesiastical calendar is not the actual moon in the sky, which is full at a definite instant of time; but a fictitious moon, the times of the phases of which are so arranged as not to dilfer much front those of the actual moon. These phases are held to occur vaguely on certain days and hold good for all longitudes. In the instance befoie us the actual moon is full at 4h. 56inin. a. m. Greenwich im an time, while the same moon is full at lib 48inin. p. m. (ou the pre ceding day) Washington mean time. Thus people adopting Greenwich time would keep Easter on March 20. while those adopting Washington time would keep it on April 23, the next full lnooii." Doctor Downing gives as the simplest expression for the date of the Paschal full moon March (14 epact). When the epact 1 is iqunl lo or greater than 24 this ex -1 pression gives tlio date of the preced ing full moon, and the Paschal full moon is found by adding 29 to this da'e. Iu 1905the epact is 24, and the calendar moon is full on M ircli 20 and April 18. The latter is, there fore, the Paschal full moon, and Eas'er Dav is the Sunday following, Ap.il 23—as stated in tlie almanacs. Professors May be Better Paid. An attempt is quietly making this winter lo secure a fund for paying i be:tor salaries lo professors and in structors of Harvard college. The i present situation is generally admitied to lif bad—not so bad perhaps as at some other eoleges where high grade work is done by men who receive ridiculously inadequate compensa tion, but b.»d enough to occasion con cern among friends of Harvard who believe that a college teacher should be paid at least an edequate living salary. The incomes of many of the Harvaid professorships and lecture ships are derived from conditional ; bequests, and yield amounts that vary somewhat from year to year. There is, furthermore, no fixed stand ard of salaries even among the linen i dowed positions. Making allowance, however, for so many exceptions that the g- neral rule seems hard lo estab lish, it may be said that a full pro fessor in Harvard college gets £4,000 a year; an associate professor, $3,000; an assistant professor, $2,000; an in structor, $1,000; au assistant from $250 to S4OO. ■FURNITDRE!

The Largest Stock IN CENTRAL PENN'A J.Doster'sSons 298-300 Mill St., DANVILLE, PENN'A' THE BIG DIAMOND Estimates of Its Value Go Beyond $125,000,000. The discovery at Klandsfontein, 1 near Pretoria, of a diamond which is reputed to be three times lieavHr than the largest stone previously found has sei the calculators at work, with amusing results, says a London special cable dispatch to the New York Sun.. One of these, who bases his calculations on the estimated value of the famous Regent or Pitt diamond, figures that the new gem, even if two-thirds of its bulk is lost in cutting, ought to be worth $25,- .074,086. This is the mo«t daring of all computations, most of which vary between a half milliou and three million sterling, with one of $15,- 000,000 Nothing beyond the bare report of the discovery of the stone is yet known, and later information may reduce this marvel to dimensions which can more easily be grasped. 1 There is no present reason, however, to doubt that it greatly exceeds the Excelsior stone of 970 carats uncut, which was found at Jagprsfoiiiein, and was the largest- hitherto found in South Africa. This was cut into nine large gems in December, 1904, by Tiffany, and doubtless the new stone will also be divided. Whatever the value of the new dis covery, the shareholders of the Prem ier mine, iu which it was found, have every reason to congratulate them selves.

The boom in the shares was largely the result of the assumption that where one gem of 3032 carats is found others as big or even bigger may be located. The discovery cannot, however, be re garded as a net pain lo ihe company, because under the present diamond' law the Government is entitled to six tenths of all the net profit. There is something very much like a fairy tale in the history of the Premier mine, which is located on a fai m w hose Boer owner sold it two years ago for $55,000. The nominal capitol of the Premier Company is ♦BO,OOO. It earned last year $007,- 738, and the market value of the shares is now in the neighborhood of $10,000,000. Between October and January $1 shares have risen from 40 to 80. When the latter figure wa* reached a few days ago the shares were split into live shilling preference shares and half crown deferred shares. The former were quoted the oil er day at 9os. and the latter at 14 10s., j on the two successive days at 15 ss. ami 18. The advance is generally understood to have been caused by heavy buying by De Beers Company, i with the object of obtaing control of the company nml maintaining its monopoly in the diamond field. Even these gigantic figures give but a small idea of the value of the greatest known diamond deposit, for thorough prospecting shows diamondi lerous earth within 400 feet of the surface of the estimated value of no less than $124,000,000.

This soon impoverishes the blood and in stead of throwing oft the im purities, distributes it all through the body. .This brings disease and misery. Feed the nerves with Dr. Miles' Nervine, a nerve food, a nerve medicine, that nourishes and strengthens the nerves, and see how quickly you will get strong and vigorous. "My wife suffered with nervouaneM previous to a recent attack of typhoid fever, but after her recovery from the fever, she waa much worse, and could hardly control herself being exceed ingly nervous when the least excited. She was very restless at night, and never had a good night's rest. She also suffered much from nervous head ache. Dr. Miies' Nervine was recom ?hr2fed^ by a u fr! ®n d - After the flrot three doses she had a good nlirht's ♦r^i»£ nd * at £ he end the ftrst week'# treatment she was wonderfully im proved. Continued use of Nervine haa completed her entire cure." OTTO KOLB. 1021 Cherry St., Evansvllle, In
