WHERE FATE GETS EVEN.
Those who do not hunt and who feel
that the life of an animal may be as
dear to it as that of its hunte' is to
him, cannot avoid the reflection suxilep
times that the rapidly increasing num
ber of gunning accidents in the State
may bo one of the methods whereby
Fate levels things up. The Pottsville
Miners' Journal, however, is convinc
ed that too mauy boys are permitted
to handle guns, and it thinks that all
would-be hunters should be compelled
to take out licenses. "Some of the
worst aocidents of the season," the
j Journal declares, "were due to the
careless work of men who borrowed a
gun for a day's shooting and shot
some luckless sportsman instead of the
game."

Quite large ami appreciative audi
ences are assembling each evening at

I Presbyterian church of Berwick, who
I is very popular with Danville audi
ences is the preaoher this week. Rov.
! Loux though a young man, is a force

sermons have boon very highy appreci
ated and he lias done much good.
Quite a number have already united
with the church. On account of the
approaching Christmas season the meet
iugs will close Friday evening. Tho
sacrament of tho Lord's Supper will
be observed iu the church next Sab
bath morning, at which time the new
members will bo received.
SAVES WORRY.
There is much seasonable truth in
the declaration of the Franklin NSWB
that "practically everything you buy
for Christmas gifts will keep all right
from now until the 25th. It is, there
fore, perfectly safe to do your shop
ping now, before the crowds become a
worry and the clerks are overushed
with orders aud tho best goods are
picked out and taken homo by more
forehanded peoplo. Such a course is a
charity to the shopkeepers and their
helpers, it saves a lot of rushing about
at tho last of tho season and gives you
a chance for a more deliberate selec
tion."
There Is no Use Fighting Nature.

away these ailments almost ere you
are aware.

A Hundred
Yard Dash
By HONORE WILLIIE
Copyright, 1000, by M. M. Cunalngb&m
Harwell loped along the lake shore
path. The spring wind beat In his
face. A mating blackbird trilled In
the greening marsh. Harwell In his
running pants and Jersey, wltli his
bare legs nnd sandaled feet, with his
fine head tossed back and the muscles
of his back rippling beneath his Jersey,
was as beautiful In his perfection of
youth as the spring landscape through
which he ran.
It was getting a little warm for the
dally cross country trot, but the spring
meets would be on In another week,
and after that cap and gown In ex
change for Jersey during commence
ment week.
Until then Ilarwell had only three
tilings to remember. First, he was not
to overdo. He was so near the per
fection point now that with the least

extra work ho would be stale. Sec
ond, he must be careful of that light
thigh muscle. lie had strained It In
the fall as quarterback. And, lastly,
this third necessity being unknown to
the trainer, he must win the hundred
yard dash in the Colwell-Wllton meet.
The rivalry between Harwell and
Small had become more than physical.
To win first place In the meet was to
win first place In Alice Summer's eyes
—at least, this was the conclusion
reached by Harwell.
He hurdled the pasture bars Into tho
meadow. It was rather wet, and tho
smell of bruised cowslips and tender
new sprung mint followed the soft pad
of his sandals. At the sand pits Har
well halted at the sound of his name
shouted at the top of lusty lungs.
Small, In knickerbockers, was pound
ing away with his geological hammer
at a huge bowlder.
"I'll chill If I stop!" called Harwell
merrily. "Why aren't you running?"
"Got this bloomin' five-fifths geology
to make up this week."
"Too bad'." shouted Harwell, bound
ing with his long strides toward the
far side of the pits.
Small looked after him, then a mali
cious look crossed his eyes. If—lf Har
well should get chilled! He sprang to
his feet.
"Wait! Walt!" he roared. "I want"
—then "Great heavens!" he cried. Then
there was silence.
Harwell did not turn his head at
Nmall's call. He grinned appreciative
ly to himself. "Can't work me that
way," he thought. "A chill for me
would be very valuable to Small," and
he crossed the little meadow brook
with a careless bound. Then vague
sense of apprehension entered his mind.
Small's roar had stopped very sudden
ly. He wondered why. Terhaps he
ought togo back, yet he kept on.
But the sense of apprehension grew
and would not go. Finally, with a lit
tle groan at his own foolishness, Har
well turned and retraced his course to
the snnd pits, his stride never break
ing. At the brow of tho slope he gave
a startled ejaculation. Iu springing to
his feet Small had dislodged a great
slice of the sand pit wall. To his arm
pits In sand, with face white and sense
less and the sand creeping constantly
down to sift higher and higher about
him, was Small.
Harwell dashed toward him. As he
ran ho snatched up an old tin can half
full of rain water and dashed it In
Small's face. Small opened his eyes. I
"I'm suffocating, Harwell," he said.
"Oh, no, you're not; not by a long
chalk. Here, tako this can and dig to
beat the band. I'll use this piece of
shovel, and we'll have you out in a
Jiffy"
He set to work feverishly. The bit
of shovel proved very efficient wielded
by Harwell's sinewy arm, and the tin
can In Small's hands was not to be de
spised. Harwell worked with one eye
on the edge of the pit. The sand lay
ers, one by one, were loosening. If he
did not get Small free before they fell
—well, there was no use in thinking of
that. Now Small was free to his waist
line, now to his thighs, now—silently,
swiftly, a great wedge of sand gave
way, and Small was again burled to
his shoulders.
Harwell looked about. The pits had

After using it a week I began to feel better,
and in a short while after that I was entirely
cured. That terrible distress, everything I
ate breaking up sour in my throat, had all
gone and I have not had a moment's dis
comfort since. To-day there isn't a healthier
man and my appetite is excellent."

no long deserted ttiat there w<rs
»ot a board In Yes, half burled
•nd black with ago, there was one. lie
felted across the fnve a great
wrench and was buck again with the
board, which he placed as a bulwark
against further sand slides. Then to
Work again with the broken shovel,
feverishly, for Kmall was growing
faint and limp.
At last, panting, ItarweTl helped the
Half unconscious Small to his feet.
Then he was suddenly conscious that
fcls hands were blistered, that his feet
dragged, that his right tlilgh muscle
ached wearily. But he put his arm
about suian ana lea mm siowiy rrom
the sand pit down to the turnpike road
that was the stralghtest course to the
colloffe dormitory. It was nearlng sun
set, and a damp, cool wind blew from
tlio marries. Harwell shivered, but ho
closed his lips firmly and hurried Small
an an best he could.
There was the sound of hoof beats
behind them. The two weary figures
drew to the roadside and waited for
the smart little dogcart to pass them.
But It stopped, and Its solitary oc
cupant gave an exclamation of sur
prise.
"What In the world Is the matturr*
asked Alice Summers.
"Small got caught In the sand pit," re
plied Harwell, both men staring up in
to the beautiful, sensitive face. The
girl gave a little cry of sympathy. "Oh,
get In here, Mr. Small, and I'll drive
you to the doctor."
In a few moments Harwell was
watching the gay painted back of the
trap, now occupied by two figures, re
treating Into the dusk.
Ills Hp quivered a little sensitively.
"They never thought of me," he mut
fered. "Small has got her, and I—l've
fot the chill he wanted me to have."
Then he limped on through the twi
light toward the dormitory a mile
away.
That evening Harwell sat In the llv
fng room of his fraternity house nurs
ing his aching muscles and giving un
•ccaslonal sneeze. Tho hundred yard
flash was lost; but, since Alice, too,
was lost, he was strangely Indifferent.
Hien he was called to the telephone.
Miss Alice Summers, who was staying
at the hotel with her mother, would be
glad to have him call.
As Harwell, very cold and dignified,
•talked into the reception room Alice,
her winsome face eager, led him to a
quiet corner. "Dick," she said hesi
tatingly, "did I act very brutal this
afternoon ?"
Dick thought for a moment. "Yes,"
he replied firmly.
Alice caught her breath. "But how
could I know that you had been so
fine? You said nothing."
"There was nothing to say. It was
Small's Inning."
"Small!" sniffed Alice. •'Don't men
tion Billy Small to me! I think you are
fine, but I could get that from what
Billy said only by Inference. Dick, did
you get a chill?"
Dick nodded, and Alice's face filled
with dismay. With two brothers In
college, she understood all the shad
ings of training.
"Oh. Dick!" she said. "Oh. Dick!"
Something In her tone made Dick
look up. "But you don't care," he said
bitterly.
"Don't I?" she replied. "Well, per
haps I do care, more that you were
brave and fine enough to give up all
chances In the meet to help a man
who was not worth It."
The room swam around giddily. Dick
clutched the arms of his chair, and
then both the girl's slender hands were
In his.
"Dick," she whispered, "don't you
tee that what you have done Is better
than winning ten dashes?"
"I am sure of it," said Dick. And
there was a thrill of Joy In his rolce
that left no doubt as to his meaning.
Perfumes exercise a peculiar fnflu

faint, subtle odor Is nearly always en
ervating. while a pungent, rich per
fume often has a bracing effect. Civet
Induces drowsiness, a faint breath of
Husk Invigorates and the perfume of
the aloe and the citron Is positively
toothing and comforting. Tho delicate,

blossoms and sweetbrier are thought
to be beneficial.
