DR. G. Q. GROFF
ON SHALLPOX
Dr. Georgo G. Grofl, of Bucknell
University, who is a member of the
State Board of Health, is chairman of
the Committee ou Preventable Dis
eases. and a recognized authority ou
smallpox, is sending out some timely
advice in circulars 011 the subject.
Oue circular, directed to Health Offic
ers, reads :
Gentlemen: Smallpox shows a ten
dency to become epidemic in the state.
The fol low iug suggestion- are made to
Boards:
1. Enforce the state law requiring
all school children to be vaccinated.
It is a good law.
li. Where smallpox gets into a school
it should be promptly closed an I all
the children vaccinated.
3. Require all physicians practicing
in your boroughs or townships and all
heads ot families to report within 12
hours, under penalty of $ >O, each aud
every case of eruptive diseases occurr
ing iu their practice or families. This
is necessary, in order to bring to light
many mild cases of smallpox, ofteu
called chickenpox.
4. There are no such diseases as
"CUBAN ITCH." "Hungarian Itch, "
"Italian Itch," etc. THEY ARE ALL
SMALLPOX Chickenpox is almost
uever seen in adults, bcyoud lti years
of age.
5. Whenever any case of smallpox
is discovered, quarantine the whole
household, enforce, AT ONCE, vac
cination of all unprotected persons.
Continue rigid quarantine iu the case
of those sick of smallpox, for at least
30 days from the appearance of the
eruptiou, louger IF NECESSARY, or
until the person is absolutely well.
Quarantine exposed persons fourteen
days.
6. Those sick of smallpox ARE
DANGEROUS FROM THE TIME
THE FEVER APPEARS until they
are absolutely well.
7. Whenever smallpox appears iu
one borough, all tho Boards of Health
in adjacent boroughs should be notifi
ed. The failure to do this in the past
has been a cause of the spread of the
disease.
8. Fumigation of buildings must be
thorough. The little fumicators com
monly sold, are too small to be of any
value. Fumigation when properly
done, should consume not less than
six hours for each and every room (all
may be done at onoe). Most fumiga
tion is of no value because too quick
ly done.
9. Remember that every unvac
cinated person in any family in which
smallpox appears WILL HAVE THE
DISEASE. None will escape. Ex
perience shows this to be true.
10. Persons who are vaccinuted af
ter exposure, often have varioloid,
SOME OF THEM ARE SURE TO
HAVE IT. A person with varioloid
can give other persons smallpox. That
is the way smallpox is kept alive iu
communities which vaccinate, but do
not quarantine exposed persons.
11. All diseases at times, appear in
mild forms; scarlet fever, diphtheria,
typhoid fever, etc., all occur iu mild
forms, and smallpox does the same
thing. But the mild forms can give
rise to the most malignant types.
Very respectully.
GEORGE M. GROFF, M. D.
Another circular coutains the vac
cination creed of the Department of
Health of Chicago, endorsed by the
Pennsylvania State Board of Health,
and is as follows:
First, That TRUE VACCINATION
repeated until it no longer takes, AL
WAYS prevents smallpox. NOTHING
ELSE DOES. If you do not wish to
have smallpox, get vaccinated
Second. That true vaccination—
that is. vaccination done on a CLEAN
ARM and with PURE lymph and
kept perfectly clean and unbroken af
terwards—never did and never will
make a serious sore.
Third, True vaccination leaves a
scar different from any other scar.
This scar is easily recognized and is
the only conclusive evidence ot a suc
cessful vaccination. The "bad arms,"
and the "very sore arms" ate not true
vaccination.
Fourth, No bad results ought ever
to follow a true vaccination.
Fifth, Smallpox is now possible
only because people neglect vaccina
tion. If all were successfully vaccin
ated in infancy, and again at fifteen
years of age, smallpox would soon die
out.
Sixth, Save your friends and your
self much trouble by getting vaccinat
ed before you take smallpox, and are
quarantined.

MRS. KREBS TELLS
OF THE SHOOTING
The Krebs shooting case, possibly
the most sensational ever called for
trial in the Northumberland County
court, is now on and another surpris
ing sensation developed at the very
outstart of the case.
Between a :30 and -I o'clock Tues
day afternoon District Attorney Cum
mitigs presented to Judge Ssvidge trui
bills found by the Grand Jury, ( barg
ing Jacob Hite with brealtiug and en
tering the home of Fred Krebs, at
Northumberland, assault and battery
and assault aud battery with intent to
kill and murder. Mrs. Fred Krebs, the
[irosecutor, being Fred Krebs' wife.
When the case was takeu up upon
the opening of court Wednesday morn
ing, the court room was only partly
filled, but in a very short time the
crowd arrived and every seat was oc
cupied and every aisle was filled to its
utmost capacity.
The first wituess called was Fred
Krebs the husband of Mrs. Krebs. He
stated that he lived in Northumber
land, was 30 years old and was mai ri
ed in 1893. He stated be was employ
ed a regular flagman and extra con
ductor on the Pennsylvania railroad.
Was home on the sth day of Novem
ber uufil about niue o'clock in the
moruiug aud then left to make a trip
to Renovo ou the railroad. Returned
home about 2:30 o'clock the next
morning. Entered the side door and
found that it had been broken open
and saw foot prints aud mud near the
lock of the door. No cross-examination.
Mrs. Lizzie Krebs was next called
and the eager throng pressed their way
down the aisles as close as possihl • in
order to heart her story of what oc
curred ou the uight of the shooting
from the lips of her who escaped from
the very jaws of death, whose recov
ery is considered one of the most re
markable in the experience of the
physicians who attended her, who
were positive in their belief that
death seemed most certain. Mrs.
Krebs was dressed in black, wearing a
large hat with a flowing veil and in
an audible tone of voice she told of
her acquaintance with Jacob Hite and
related her misdoings without the
least hesitation aud told many things
not bearing directly ou the case at is
sue which would have been far better
unsaid. Voluutarily she went into
all the details ot her meeting Hite on
different occasions iu a cool and de
liberate manner aud with accompany
ing gestures more than explained the
most sensational chapter of her life's
history. So eager was she to tell her
story that Judge Auteu was forced to
check her a number of times when she
was relating different occurrences
which were not needed to strengthen
her case. Throughout all her story
her hubsaud listened with bead bowed
resting ou his hands aud tho ordeal
WHS most severe to him and the sym
pathy of those present was with him.
Mrs. Sarah Krebs was called next
aDd told of Hite and Mrs. Krebs being
at her house and hearing the shot
fired. She said that Hite gave her
SSOO on the Sunday evening. Mrs.
Krebs did not make any change in her
clothing after she (Mrs. Krebs, Sr. >
had retired.
Fred Krebs was recalled and produc
ed the ballets which were taken out
of Mrs. Krebs' body at the hospital
Mrs. Florence Atherton, a sister of
Mis. Krebs, testified to Mrs. Krebs'
coming to her house when she was
shot and told of sending for the physi
cians. She removed Mrs. Krebs' un
dershirt and burned it because sin
could not bear to see it. Mrs. Krebs
pleaded pitifully togo to bed a« she
was going to die.
Dr. Steaus, Dr. Burg, Dr Shindel
and Dr. Renn were called and describ
ed the wounds of Mrs Krebs, the
critical condition which she was in
ami her most wonderfully recovery.
Orville Weaver testified to taking
the revolver from Hite on the Thurs
day night before the shooting When
Hite and Mrs. Krebs were in his house
he heard Hite demand something from
her and she said she had it and would
keep it.
To Watch Pipe Line.
The Tidewater Pipe Line Company
have placed a telegraph instrument in
the ottice of the Philadelphia & Read
ing R. R. at Rupert and have secured
the services of a watchman who re
ports daily on the condition of the
river and the ice gorge.
Their past experience in having
their lines broken has proved the wis
dom of this action and the river will
be watched closely. This pipe line,
which is a part of the Standard Oil
Company's immense system, extends
from Williamsport to Bayonne, New
Jersey.
CONSTIPATION dl
A Barrytown, N.Y., Man's Experi
ence with Cal-cura Solvent.
Or. David Kennedy's Wonderful New Medicine
Cured Him Promptly. Your Money Back
If it Doet Not Cure.
Constipation leads to worse. Often it is
the cause of appendicitis. Always it leads
to dangerous chronic disease. It should
not be neglected, nor should it he tempor
arily relieved with drastic purgatives. 11> ro
is a case in point:
Mr. C. S. Osterhoudt, of Barrytown, N.
Y., was distressed with indigestion, chronic
constipation and kidney trouble for four
years. He tried many medicines without
relief. He heard of Cal-cura Solvent, Dr.
Kennedy's new medicine, used it and began
to improve rapidly. All of his old com
plaints have disappeared and he owes
everything to Cal-cura Solvent.
If your druggist does not have Cal-cura
Solvent, write to the Cal-cura Company,
K'indout, N.Y.; but ask your druggist first.
1} 1.00 a bottle. Only one size.
Guarantee: Your druggist will return
your money if Cal-eura fails to cur*', and
The Cal-cura Company will pay the drug
gist. Remember, Cal-cura Solvent curi-s

Combined Manoeuvres.
The following editorial from "Our

of interest to members of Company F:
It - t ins to li a settled policy of the
War Department to hold combined
manoeuvres of the Army and the Na

I ROUPS WILL ESCORT
AMBASSADORS NOW
WASHINGTON, Feb. 3. — Because
of the precedent established by meet
ing Secretary Taft with a troop of cav
alry and by according the same honor
to.Mr. Root, the retiring secretary
when lie left Washington, it is learn
ed that a similar courtesy will be re
quested of this government when the
next new Ambassador shall be receiv
ed i:i audionce for the first time by
the President.
This is the custom observed in other
countries, and it is understood that
American ambassadors abroad always
have insisted on full military honors.
It appears that Lord Pauncefote.tlie
first ambassador appointed at Washing
ton, neglected to draw up with the
State Department (he usual protocol
providing for the reception of ambas
sadors. Such a convention is felt by
liploiuats to be highly desirable.
It is said that although the request
for militarv honors for the next Am
bassador who shall be presented will
emanate from his own government,
the support of all the governments
represi nted by Ambassadors here,and,
it l s believed by diplomats, will not
meet objection from the government
of tho I'll ited States.
Frost ou the Peaches.
HARTFORD, Conn., Feb. 3—Re
ports submitted to the Connecticut
Pomological Society, which is holding
its annual convention here, indicate
that this year's peach crop in this
Stnt>' will be small. It is said that
one-half the peach trees are stricken
wii'- the San Jose scale and will nev
er bear again.
Growers also say that cold weather
has killed not only peach buds but al
so tiees in'orchards of low elevation.
Hiu'ier up buds have been killed,while
orchards at an elevation of over TOO
teet are apparently uninjured by frost.

Indigestion Causes
Catarrh of tHe
Stomach.
For many years it has been supposed that
Catarrh of tha Stomach caused Indigestion
and dy.peps.a. but the truth is exactly the
opposite. Indigestion causes catarrh. Re
peated attacks of indigestion Inflames the
mucous membranes lining the stomach and
exposes the nerves of the stomach, thus caus
ing the glands to secrete mucin Instead of
the ]u;ces of natural digestion. This Is
called Catarrh of the Stomach.

There is comfort in the knowledge so
often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-
Root, the great kidney remedy fulfills every
wish in curing rheumatism, pain fn the
back, kidneys, liver, bladder and every part
of the urinary passage. It corrects inability
to hold water and scalding pain in passing
it, or bad effects following use of liquor,
wine or beer, and overcomes that unpleasant
necessity of being compelled to go often
during the day, and to get up many times
during the night. The mild and the extra
ordinary effect of Swamp-Root is soon
realized. It stands the highest for its won
derful cures of the most distressing cases.

A GOOD THING

LI vox A CAMP, PA, APRIL 21. 1902 -
MOVER BROS.
DKAR SIR
1 think that every man that has a
team of horses or any stock, ought to
have a bottle of Mover's White Liniment
in the stable or his house. I had a
horse that stepped in a hole with his
front foot, coining down the mountain
with a trail of props, and fell forward
and strained his shoulder blade. That
it swelled so fast that we could hardly
get the collar off. and in two hours his
neck was swollen to all the skin would
hold. We used your White Liniment
freely,and in a few days he was to work
again, and does not show any signs of
lameness. It worked like magic.
Respectfully Yours.
