XAMPLE is one of the best evidences of good judgment in rearing a family. Much depends on the part you play in the develop ment of your child. Strict fathers and mothers, in many instances, pres ent the worst of unworthy degenerates, for they fail to teach by example. Picture n parent attempting to correct his offspring, who is discovered culti vating his taste for tobacco or profan ity, when the father appears on the scene with a large cud of the filthy weed and a cigar between his teeth < r an oath upon his tongue's end. Hor rible to behold ! Is it not? "Do as I say; not as I do" is their command, and can wo expect more than mutiny on the part of the child under train ing '! Later years bring forth the ex ample of the parent. Does the eagle tell its young to leave their cozy nest in the high, over-liauging cliffs and soar gracefully over the deep ravine? No. It teaches by example the use and power of their wings by fluttering befoie them, then tearing asunder their downy resting place, taking one on her back high up aud then setting it free to do its best. The fete is con quered and the eaglet, through con stant practice, follows the example of its mother to perfect flight. Let it be impressed upon all that the eye of youth rests upon its ideal, audit is the duty every one to pres ent the best possible effect when iu thejr sight, for we cannot say when our example is grasped for good or evil. Officers of the law cannot be too strict iu the observance oTtheir every duty. Good men set good examples, and good men should fill our import ant offices—those who have the cour age of their good convictions. Disciplin is one of the cssencials to good government, and a man who is not a man of example and courage lias no right to dictate what sliould be said or done; but a man of ex ample, having within him the fear of the Great Creator, and who has the courage in the dispensation of the same, is to be admired. We, therefore say, straighten up; don't bend your moral or physical nature, for it was not ordained so. — ONCE more the mistake, if not the fallacy, of an American girl in buying a foreign titled husband has forced itself upon public attention. What lias long been predicted is now likely to become a reality. Anna Gould has sued for a divorce from her profligate and altogether worthless spendthrirt husband, the Count Boni de Castellane. Treated with discour tesy and contempt by her husband's high-toned relatives, with dishonor by her dissolute husband himself, and tired paying his gambling and other debts, she lias at last asked for a dis solution of the alliance she once so eagerly sought, and for which unwise action she has paid so dearly. Of course, Count Boni and his titled re latives oppose the divorce. Under the French law, a decree of that kind dissolves any contract made between the parties relative to pecuniary settle ments, each party resuming control of their own property. Count Boni is poorer than the proverbial church mouse, and his aristocratic family is about as wealthy. The whole gang have, no doubt, been living 011 the Gould millions, while despising and treating with the utmost contempt the source whence those supplies came. All this is only what was predicted when this marriage was first an nounced. — THE universal demand for bitu minous coal at tlie present time from all quarters lias somewlia' curtailed the production of the anthracite arti cle during the past two weeks. There lias been a shortage of cars in the au thraeite regious because both the Reading Company and the Pennsyl vania have of late been sending thous ands to Western Maryland and West Virginia to bring the bituminous pro duct of those regions where they may be needed should a strike occur. The Pennsylvania Railroad has begun to store coal for its motive power. Tem porary storage plants have been es tablished at all terminal points, and g' - eat piles of bituminous will be amassed before the end of the present wage scale agreement. The manage ment, will endeavor to have 1,500,- 000 tons on hand by March 31. All coil in transit at the time a strike is declared will be confiscated to in crease its supply on hand. These are, of course precautionary measures, but it is more than probable they will have much to do in deciding the ac tion of the miners when the first of April arrives. —THE Lehigh Valley liailroad directors at their meeting on Wednes day tilled the vacancy in the board, created hy the death of Alexander B. Coxe bv the election of lion. Sinion P. Wolverton, of Sunbury. Mr. Wolverton has been associated for a number of years with the Heading and other coal companies as their counsel, and is a trustee of the Coxe estate, which recently sold its laige coal and railroad interests to the Lehigh Val ley. Mr. Wolverton is one of our mo-t capable State attorneys and is thoroughly acquainted and posted in 1 all matters pertaining to anthracite affairs, and thus becomes a strong ac-1 quisition to the Lehigh Valley board. Mr. Wolverton is very well known in this city and surroundings, having al ways entertained the most friendly ( spirit toward Danville's progress, | many times lending a willing helping 1 hand in furthering a good cause. In tlie rebuilding of the Heading Iron Works, iu this eitv some years ago, Mr. Wolverton, to a great degree, assitod, and has the credit ot doing our town much good. The Intelligen cer voices the many friends of Mr. Wolverton, when it says, may success I crown his every effort for good. —"PUSH, patience and |>ersever ance" constitutes the keystone of tie I Williamsport Hoard, of Trade. Hus tle seems to he its banner as it forges ahead in its ever progressive manner. We have just received its report for 1905—a handsomely printed and illustrated, 10-page booklet, in which the advantages and attractions of the city are set forth in the most glowing colors. It makes a big bid for in dustries of all sorts and the advan tages set forth seem to be of the most desirable kinds. It makes a good showing in new industries during the I past year. The building operations, the business of the pest office, the bank statements, even the base ball supremacy, are fully set forth, but nowhefe is a word said concerning the population of the city. The Board of Trade of Williamsport seems to be a very active body and has done much to advance the interests of the flour ishing city. — OUR Fourth Ward friends will kindly accept our heartiest thanks for the very liberal support they tendered us at the polls last Tuesday. Their kindly feeling and generous confid ence displayed in the giving of their humble servant such a flattering majority, is appreciated and the same shall not bo betrayed. We shall serve them uprightly and to the best of our ability. Again we say, thank you, fellow citizens of the Fourth Ward. —-Miss ROOBEVELT is said to have received a million dollars' worth of wedding presents. Eaeli is given for ostentation or hope of some office or other emolument. The rich own the government and can easily recoup what is given. — THIS country shipped one and one-half million dollars' worth of cot ton seed oil to Italy, which came back as pure olive oil, in bottles, impres sively labeled, wired and sealed. Oh, no ! we are not easy marks ! A Pleasunt Cull. The editor of the Lamar (Mo.) "Democrat" tells what happens when he reminds by letter one of his delin quent subscribers of his remissness: The subscriber comes to the office, and in a "voice that is aimed to be built upon the style of that of Jack o' the Beanstalk's giant whin he says, 'I smell bl-o-o-o-o-d,' he wants to know how much he owes on this paper. Tremblingly, as an autumn leaf and as gently as a spring lamb, the meek and lowly prince of the sanc tum looks through the lists aud halt ing informs the lordly delinquent that the book shows that he owes 83. With the air of an Eastern potentate the aggrieved reader of the 'county's favorite family paper,' hands over the three plunks. Then lie squares his shoulder, sticks out his chest and halts at the door. 'You can stop it,' he says, and then he walks out with the air of a man who has just reoeived such a grievous wrong that he fears to speak for fear he'll lose control of himself. The editor sits meekly down at his desk and writes for the personal column next week: Mr. John Haines, one of the leading citizens of Roaring Prairie Township, made this office a pleasant call last week.' " AN EFFECTIVE BAIT. Clover Detective to Send After a MIMMIIIK Debtor. A registered letter Is mighty effective bait. The .Seventy-eighth street wo man nibbled at the first throw. "Of course It Is for me," she said. "That is my name and that was my address before I moved here." "Yes, that part of it's all right," the postman admitted, "hut it says 'es quire.' You're not esquire." "No," sighed the woman, "but I'm sure"— "Of course you are sure," lie put In, "but 1 can't leave tlie letter. This is a registered letter, and we have to be very careful of registered mail. The best I can do is to give you the name and address of the writer. Then you can make inquiry and ask to have the letter addressed properly." The woman eyed tlie prosperous look ing missive yearningly, but since the compromise offered was the best bar gain obtainable she accepted It. The situation was puzzling. The name of her benefactor was totally unknown. Fortunately he was situated In a down town office building, so Immediately after luucheon she attempted to elucl dale tlie mystery of the registered let ter, Once inside the office she recog nized her correspondent as the man ager of a concern to which she had owed $2 for typewriting supplies for the last six months. She mentioned the letter; the man produced a bill. "It was a copy of this,"he said. "You had moved—wo could not find you—mere oversight on your part of course—still, in order to keep our ac counts square—you understand"— The woman was so mad she wasn't sure whether she understood or not, but she paid the bill. When she bad gone tlie manager treated himself to a fresh cigar. "Registered letters,"he said, are the best detectives going when the person you are after moves frequently and is guilty of no greater crime thau shirking a little bill. An ordinary let ter, even though forwarded to tlrj proper address, may elicit no reply, but very few people can withstand the appeal of a registered letter. To bring results it must, of course, be Improperly directed, so that the ad dressee cannot receive It. In that case it either arouses sufficient curiosity to bring the delinquent down here to Investigate or Is returned with the proper address marked on the envel ope. In either event we get on the track of the debtor and are pretty sure to collect the money."—New York Presß. Gentle Hint.

Olmsted Leltoy, N. y. Big Fire at Milton. A very serious Are occurred at Mil ton Tuesday night nud only the heroic work of the members of the Are de t partmont prevented the destruction of a large amount of valuable projierty. About ten o'clock the firo was dis covered in the ware room of the Mil ton Manufacturing Company conditct , ed by Sliitner & Sou, which is located ; along the Pennsylvania Railroad Com pany's tracks. A general alarm of firo , was sounded aud the fire laddies quick ly responded, but so rapidly did the , flames spread that the firo was soon be ! yond all control and the firemen put orth all their energy iu saving the t lioar by buildings. Just how the fire originated is not known but wheu discovered nlmost the , entire inside of the ware room was all i aMaze aud was soon a regular seething l furnace. So fiercely did the fire rage ( tiat it was utterly impossible to save j the large amonut of valnable stock kept iu the ware room dud the build | ing with its conteuts was entirely de , i for three hours and although the othei ( buildings composing the works were ( threatened at different times they were saved after considerable hard work. I The loss of the building is estimat- I ed at s2soo,covered by SISOO insurance, , while $25,000 worth of stock was de i stroyed, upon which there was $20,00 C insurance. It is the consensus of opinion that . sp:u°ks from a passing eugiuo set fire to the building. Two box cars on n siding along side the building were , also totally destroyed.

Mahouing township was the only one • in the county that did not vote down the proposition to abolish the work ' tax. Whether the result of the vote iu the other districts is to be deplored 01 ' otherwise it is gratifying that there ' will at least bo ouo opportunity for ' experiment. All eyes, therefore will • bo on Mahoning township to see how the new provioion works. The taxpay ers there have confidence in the new order of things as shown by the cou > siderable majority by which the work ) tax was abolished. > The supervisors-elect in the various > townships under the new law will • moot for organization on the first Mou » day in March at which time they will levy a tax aud divide the township up i into road districts with not less than ' five miles of road in each distr'ct. For » each of these districts the supervisors I I will employ a roadmaster, whose duty • it shall be to work upon the road him self and see to it that the roads of the I district are cared for according to specifications. Under the new law each of the townships will need several road • masters and just who shall be selected for these new aud uutried positions is a question on which the supervisors elect are thinking very doeply at pres ent. Several farmers iu this city yester day hailing from townships that vot ed down the proposition to abolish the work tax, during an interview aired their views on the subject very fully. They did not dispute that the proposi tion to pay the road tax in money thereby uudcr the provision making every dollar worth $1.15 to the town ship might prove boneficial to the whole body of taxpayers, but they in clined to the view that it would prove detrimental to tenant farmers, who can lnuch moro profitably work out their road tax thau pay the same in cash.

Cold batlis In the morning are uu doubtediy beneficial, but only to those ' persona who have sufficient vital ener gy and nervous force to insure good . reaction with no subsequent languor or lassitude. Many persons who are great ! ly refreshed by their morning bath feel tired or languid two or three hours ai er it. When this occurs it Is conclusl-, . evidence that the practice Is harmf." | Persons who have an abundance ot blood and flesh, who are lymphatic or sluggish In temperament and whose nervous force is not depleted, can tako a cold morninjf bath to advantage. Others who are inclined to be thin, , whose hands and feet become cold and clammy on slight provocation, who di gest food slowly and assimilate It with difficulty, who are nervous and who have much on their mliuls should avoid i early morning cold bathing. For such the bath before retiring at night Is rec ommended, as It should be followed by rest of brain and body till equable con ditions of circulation are re-established. 1 Some persons who are weak In nerve power have such excitable nerves that they get at once a perfect reaction i from cold bathing, but lose In after ef fects more than the value of the bath. This class of individuals should not bathe too often and should always use tepid water, choosing the time prefer ably before retiring. THE PHENIX. Lfjrrnd of How It l.lred and Died nnd Lived Avaln. Tho ancient tradition concerning the phenix has introduced Into nearly ev ery language the habit of applying that name to whatever Is singular or un common among its kind. According to ancient writers, the phenix was a bird of great beauty about the size of an eagle. A shining and most beautiful crest adorned its head. Its plumage contained nearly every tint of the rain bow, and Its eyes sparkled like dia monds. Only one of these birds could live at a time, but Its existence covered a period of 500 or 000 years. When Its life drew to a close the bird built for Itself a funeral pile of wood and aro matic spices, with Its wings fanned the pile Into a flame and therein consumed Itself. From Its fishes a worm was produced, out of which another phenix was formed, having all the vigor of youth. The first care of the new phenix j was to solemnize its parent's obsequies. I For that purpose It made a ball of myrrh, frankincense and other fra grant things. At Ilellopolis, a city In lower Egypt, there was a magnificent temple dedicated to the sun. To this I temple the phenix would carry the fra grant ball and burn It ou the altar of the sun as a sacrifice.

Pottagrove, Pa. Periodic Pains. Dr. Miles' Anti-Pain Pills are a most remarkable remedy for the relief of periodic pains, backache, nervous or sick head ache, or any of the distress ing aches and pains that cause women sc much suffering. As pain is weakening, and leaves the system in an ex hausted condition, it is wrong to suffer a moment longer than necessary, and you should take the Anti-Pain Pills on first in dication of an attack. If taken as directed you may have entire confidence in their effectiveness, as well as in the fact that they will leave no dis agreeable after-effects. They contain no morphine, opium, chloral, cocaine or other dangerous drugs. "For a long time I have raftered greatly with spells of backache, that seem almost more than I can endure. Those attacks come on every month, and last two or three daya. I have never been able to *et anything that would give me much relief until I be began the use of Dr. Miles' Antl-Paln Pits, and they always relieve me In a short time. My sister, who suffers the same way, has used them with the same results." MRS. PARK. 721 8. Michigan St., South Bend, 104.
