time My back ached badly and
I couldn't do my housework. I
had dizzy spells and chills and
was annoyed r?y the kidney se
cretions Often swelling appear
ed uuder my eyes, and 1 was
very Dervous at night I was
troubled by rheumatic twinges
I finally used Doan's Kidney Pills
procured at Trout's Drug Store,
and since then I haven't been
troubled by my back or kidneys.
Price 50c. at all dealers. Don't

A Gigantic Red Oak(?)
Editor News : Probably it
was last September that you pub
lished a statement from a lady of
Fulton county, who, on a visit to
Franklin county, had seen a tree
of remarkable size on the farm
of a Mr, Kline, or a Mr. Rankin.
This tree was named a Red Oak,
and it was credited with a girth
uf 31 feet at a height of 2 or 3
feet from the ground. I saw the
article at the time and wanted
then to make a counter state
ment; but my physical disabilities
rendered this impossible. If not
too late, let me do so now. There
are no trees in our forests more
admirable, in all respects, than
the family of the Oaks-known
to botanists as Quercus: And,
of the Oaks, none are finer in
general appearance than a typic
al Red Oak; but this species does
not, in point of size, compare
favorably with the White, the
Black, the Scarlet and the Pine,
which normally surpass it Now,
if the tree referred to in the ar
ticle has a circumference of 31
feet at 2 or 3 feet up, the prob
ability is that it is not a red oak
for I have never seen nor heard
of a Red of so great size. In or
der to maintain its integrity that
tree should measure at least 25
feet at 4 to 8 feet up (the place
of usual measurement, ) and that.
I venture to say, is not true of
any Red Oak in Pennsylvania.
I once knew a White Oak, since
blown down, of 25i feet at 6 feet
up but that was supposed to be
the thickest oak in the State.
The Franklin county tree, if an
oak at all, is likely a White or a
Black. Few persons can tell one
oak from a another. The differ
ence is readily told, but trees do
not attract the multitude save
as they display some unusual
quality, such as great size, sym
metry of form, conspicuous flow
ering, etc. A little knowledge of
botany would open a new and
wonderful world to most people,
who are content to remain igno
rant, and to behold without seeing
the beauties of God's creations
even of those which appear upon
the surface.
Will the lady who was enough
interested in the tree to report
its existence to you, please take
a second look at it when oppor
tunity occurs, and inform us
whether her measurement was
correct, and state some reasons
for her belief that it is a Red
Oak? By so doing she will
greatly oblige many tree-lovers.
Sincerely yours,
Wm. F. Hughes.

AN EXAMPLE OF
WATERED LABOR
MsaMa a
Statement Showing How Excess
Trainmen Hurt Railroads
and Labor,
New York. March 10.
Business men and other are find
tag food for much sober thought la
an editorial Just published by ins
"Wall Street Journal," entitled: "An
Example of Watered Labor," In part
a follow:
"It is stated In the recent report
of the Pennsylvania Railroad that the
superfluous train band demanded by
the extra crew law of the state of
Pennsylvania costs the road upward
of one million dollar a year. This
represent 5 per cent upon a capital
of 120,000,000. The payroll 1 therefore
watered to that extent. This 1 In
fact watered labor, of a kind far more
Intolerable than watered capital.
"If tbl le multiplied by all the
railroad affected by such laws, the
watered labor may be easily and con
servatively estimated at 1100,000,000.
Suppose the railroad of the United
States were to Issue a Tfke amount of
capital tock, with nothing behind ltt
What an outburst of public Indigna
tion there would be!
"It has been Justly pointed out that
the sums thus .expended to subsidized
idlers would have at least five times
the employing power It diverted Into
upkeep and improvements. In other
words, the labor unions. Instead . of
employing more men, are really re
ducing employment to that extent.
"There Is another way In which the
railroad worker suffers. These super
fluous employes choke the channels
f promotion. I
"This may eult the well-paid labor I
leader, who would sooner rest his '
power upon Ignorance and depend
ence. But how doe It strike the am
bitious train hand on a road like the
Pennsylvania, where practically every
officer, from the president down, has
risen from the rankr
Electric Power.
If, by the aid of electricity,
Fulton county breaks the shack
les of progress, and at one bound
leaps into the enjoyment of the
very latest type of railroad, she
should not be content at that.
Look at little Belgium the worlds
acknowledged centre of electrical
activities. Before a ruthless foe
destroyed her industries, she de
fied the world to compete with
her in the production of low-priced
articles that required the use
of innumerable pieces of machi
nery, each machine driven by a
little motor supplied with power
from a central station sometimes
miles away. America is rapidly
adopting her system of doing
away with dangerous, costly
shafting and belting to convey
power to distant rooms in facto
ries. While Belgium led the
world in the use of electrical ap
pliances, it was not on account of
a water source of power to run
dynamos. Fulton county with
its small streams which could be
harnessed at frequent intervals,
could probably, outdo Belgium in
the production of cheap power.
We confidently predict that men
now living will see Licking Creek
valley farms lighted by electric
ity, little portable motors no big
ger than the crown of your hat
will find a place on every farm to
take the place of present lifcle in
ternal combustion engines, and
little manufacturing plants will
spring up for the utilizing of
many waste products.

FIT MATES FOR WARRIORS
Natural Beautlea of Women Enhanced
by Heroic Wart, Is the Opinion of
American Writer.
For are not the most beautiful
generations of the women of any
race produced during its long, he
roic wars? It it not what women
think of distant fighting men that
alone carries their natures to certain
loftiest ranges of human expression ?
Not such beauty as comes to other
women from thoughts of God
women whose brows, dedicated to
heaven, have the pitifulness of
blanched flowers; whose eves are
ever turned toward the dust as
though the bold, burning sun were
too human a light, and these could
be opened wide and unafraid only in
dark places before the unBidereal ra
diance of silver lamps. But beauty
which answers with frank and full
understanding to all there is in the
eyes of men, when these come home
to them, as their saviors and lovers,
from battle plains where blood ran
reddest and fiercest near the very
wine presses of death and the young
vineyards of the slain. Is it na
ture's compensation to women for
their passionate unfitness to carry
on war that they can yet win its vic
tories as the mates of warriors who
after the lapse of all Christian cen
turies are still to them the foremost
and the fullest of men ? From "The
Sword of Youth," by James Lane
Allen, in the Century Magazine.
WAR CHANGES GUIDE BOOKS
Experts Very Much at 8ea aa to What
Will Be Result of the Euro
pean Conflict
One of the multitude of effects of
the war is its alteration of the guide
books to the continent, sajs the
Westminster Gazette. The majority
of these have needed little change
for several years in the bulk of their
pages. But now I A publisher of
guide books says thnt as regards Bel
gium, Austria and France there will
be wholesale corrections needed. And
the end is not in sight
The year books, several of which
are now in active preparation, are
experiencing similar difficulties.
The statistics of various public de
partments have been "held up"
owing to the enlistment of officials
concerned in this work. And when
one does not know what a day will
bring forth it is impossible to
"close" pages for press.
DISEASE GERMS.
During the recent outbreak of the
foot-and-mouth disease at the Chi
cago stockyards hundreds of thou
sands of pigeons were killed by the
state and government authorities.
They were said to be carriers of the
disease germs.
Thousands upon thousands of tats
were also exterminated at the same
time. Poison fumes were sprayed
into all holes and crevices in the
brick pavements of the stock pens
aa the work of cleaning and disin
fecting was completed.
MUSICAL IMPRESSIONS.
"You don't seem fond of music."
"Well," replied Senator Sorghum,
"I try not to harbor resentments, but
whenever I hear music I can't help
being reminded of the campaign
funds that we recently wasted in
employing a brass band."
ACCOUNTED FOR.
"now did the hunters manage to
thread their way through the
jungle?"
"I guess they used needle guns."
ON THE CON1RARY.
"They don't take Wall street
lambs with mint, do they?"
"Take 'em? They grab 'em, if
it a mint of money.
QUEER ARRANGEMENT.
"Charge this telegram, please."
"Have to pay cash, sir."
"Why I thought all telegraph mes
sages went on tick."
QUITE DISTANT.
"What distant manners your
guest has !
"Well, you see, she came from
Canada."
A DIFFICULT CASE.
Maud Have you given Jack any
opportunities to propose?
Betty Yes, but I couldn't tell
him they were opportunities.
PLAINLY EVIDENT.
"I saw Smith pitch his alarm
clock out of the window."
"Ah I I suspected he was throw
ing away his time." '
MAKING THE POINT.
My boy, is the girl you are going
lo marry a good plain cook Y
"No, uncle; she's a good, pretty
pne,"
Fifteen Years Ago.
Henry Ford, the automobile
manufacturer, was engineer in an
electric light plant in Detroit.
Charlie Murphy, the base ball
millionaire, was a reporter on the
Cincinnati Enquirer. ' Thomas
H. Ince, the motion picture mag
nate, was a comic opera comedi
an, glad to get $50 a week. Char
lie Weeghman, owner of the-
Chicago Federal base ball team
and a string of restaurants, was
a waiter in a quick-lunch room.
And bo it goes. The list could be
strung out to a column's length.
Therefore, when you hear a boy
or a man complain that he has no
chance, take him by the arm and
tell him a few things. There
never was a time in the world's
history when there were more
opportunities for a young man to
push to the front There never
was a time when a little intelli
gence and determination would
provide a man with a competence
in a few years. This is particu
larly true in the farming busi
nessfor farming is a business.
The young man of to day who
will take hold of a farm with the
idea of making it the best farm
in the county and who will work
intelligently for ten years, with
that idea always before him, will
not have to work for the remain
der of his life.
Auto Bos Line.
The Alexander Brothers-Scott
and Edgar have purchased an
auto truck, and, in a few days
will put it on the road between
McConnellsburg and Fort Loudon.
It will make at least, two trips a
day, and if the business warrants
three or four trips. It will car
ry passengers and freight Fur
ther information later.
