Rnnluirv Standing within the
Bhadow of the gallows awaiting tho
day of his execution, Thursduy,
March 25, Stanislaus Marcavlsh, con
victed of the murder of Charles Yes
alonls, a cobbler, at Shaniokin, made
a statement to his father and County
Detective John Glass. Marcavlsh pro
tests his Innocence, claiming the min
der was committed by Joe Raloski,
who Is Berving a two-years' sentence
for highway robbery. The confession
of Marcavlsh, dictated and signed by
him, Is as follows:
"I will not hang for Joe; I'll swear
again him. He was In there when
murder was done. lie gave me money
two squares awny. I did not under
stand, or I would have swore the dny
Detect'.ve Glass had me before the
Grand Jury. I seen him wltl hatch
et In his hands, full of blood. He
gave me money. I was drunk and
don't know what went on. He wa9
In the shoemaker's shop. I met him
when he was coming out the door
when I was going in. He slammei
the door In my faca. This Is all the
confession I will make."
The opinion prevails here tha'
Marcavlsh is tilling the truth and
that he should be granted a reprieve,
to appear as a witness against "Joe."
The District Attorney says he will
have Joe inJiited and tried as the
real perpetrator of the crime.
During h!s trial Marcavlsh refused
to Implicate "Joe" In the case, main
taining strict silence when questioned.

How We Grow.
Some Idea of the wonderful growth
of commerce and. traffic in th!a coun
try may be gleaned from a carefully
prepared article In a recent number
of the Manufacturers' Record. An
excerpt places it before the public
In figures, and those figures are rich
In Inspiration. The writer points
out that, with 5 per cent, of the
world's population, we have 40 per
cent, of the world's railroad mileage,
and our traffic is growing so rapid
ly that we need to double our entire
railroad facilities within the next ten
or fifteen years. Our population In
creases at the rate of about 2 per
cent, a year.
On the present basis of 87,000,
000, this would give us 17,000,000
to 18,000,000 more people In the
next ten years and something over
20,000,000 in the following decade.
This will give us over 125,000,000
by 1930 and 150,000,000 people by
1940. In thirty years our population
will be about 70 per cent, larger
than It Is today, but by virtue of
the Increasing power of transporta
tion on land and sea, the use of the
telephone and telegraph which are
among the greatest agents that ever
came Into existence for accelerating
business and adding to man' pro
ductive capacity the 70 per cent,
of increase In population will have
a far greater potentiality than the
population of today. Duluth News-Tribune.

DIDN'T REALIZE
How Injurious Coffee Really Was.
Many persons go on drinking coffee
year after year without realising that
it is the cause of many obscure but
persistent ailments.
The drug caffeine in Coffee and
tea, ia very l.ne uric acid, and la of
ten the cause of rheumatic attacks
which, when coffee is used habitually,
become chronic.
A Washington lady said recently:
"I am sixty-five and have had a good
deal of experience with coffee. I
consider it vory injurious and the
cause of many diseases. I am sure It
causes decay of teeth in children.
"When I drank coffee I had sick
spells and still did not realize that
coffee could be ao harmful, till about
a year ago I had rheumatism in my
arms and fingers, got so nervous I
could not sleep and was all run down.
"At last, after finding that medi
cine did me no good, I decided to
quit coffee entirely and try Postum.
After using it six months I fully re
covered my health beyond all expec
tations, can sleep sound and my rheu
matism ia all gone." "There's a Rea

WHAT WIFE SAYS "GOES,"
Itut It Sometimes Is Rod For the
Painting.
When a property-owner Knows
nothing about paint It Is bad for the
property-owner, and bad for the
painter. It would not be so If the
property-owner would always hire a
'killed painter and then really leave
everything to him. But the house
owner so often fools himself on one
or the other of these things.
The skilled painter in every com
munity has some of the most incom
petent competitors that ever vexed a
conscientious workman or contractor,
and the Incompetents get Jobs gener
ally by working cheap. In the next
place, when the skilled painter Is
hired, they do not leave everything
to him, as so many property-owners
boast they do.
They interfere most Ignoratitly and
most fatally. They Insist sometimes
on using paint materials without In
vestigating whether they are good or
not. Or perhaps they Insist on the
painter's hurrMng the work.
"I'm not goinc to have this painter's
mess around my house a month," the
wife says, and w h:it wife says goes
at the cost of a l a of wasted painting
money.
If the painter stays away a few
days to allow the i.aint to thoroughly
dry the owner says: "That painter's
neglecting this work guess he's side
tracking mo for Jot.us' work. I won't
stand it."
What chance does n painter have to
do good work for a r ian who is con
tinually nagging at him and other
wise handicapping him (without
meaning It, of course, ? a poor Job
is the inevitable result of such Inter
ference. Poor painting costs the houseownor

An Imitation Takes For Its
Pattern the Real .Article
There was never an imitation made of an imitation. Imitators always counterfeit
the genuine article. The genuine is what you ask for, because genuine articles are the ad
vertised ones Imitations are not advertised, but depend for their business on the ability
of the dealer to sell you something claimed to be "just as good" when you ask for the
genuine, because he makes more profit on the imitation. Why accept imitation. ,Kn
you can get the genuine by insisting)
