respiratory organs as those who do not
pge it at all. It is calculated that the

ftboot.

change which says: "If you are a young
man well liked and are tempted to
spend a dollar or two treating the boys
to drinks and cigara, juat drop the habit
and pnt the money it wonld cost in the
bank. Stick to the custom and put
§w«y what you would otherwise spend
and some day when you want a good
reliable friend to help you in trouble,
the boys that would gladly drink with
you mar not care—they seldom care for
anyone because of the treats they get—
but the cashier at the hank will be very
gofdial find obliging."

Supposed Incendiarism.
S. Shamberger. a versatile little gen
tleman who came to Bntler some weeks
ago and staffed a jewelry and optical
store in the Wnller store room, next
door to C. Stock's on S. Main St., came
back to Butler. Monday evening, and
was promptly jailed on a charge of wil
fully and maliciously setting fire to his
store with the intention of defrauding
the insurance company.
He and his family, who occupied the
second story of the building, were in
Pittsburg, celebrating Yom Kippur, the
Hebrew day of atonement; he is said to
have senr away i>art of his goods, Sat
urday. and to have been last seen at his
store. Sundav morning.
That evening some young men pass
ing the store room noticed that it was
full of smoke, and broke in and at
tempted to extinguish the flames, but
they spread rapidly—almost instanta
neously—and the hose companies had to
be called, by which time the whole in
terior and everything in it were ruined.
