THOUSANDS OF RATS IN SUNBURY PRISON Rats by the haudreds and by the thousands have found a happy home in the Suubury jail for many gen .ra tions, bat now their sweet seclusion is disturbed by the rnde hand of man. They have romped and roamed at will through the prisou corridors. In foud imagination they have grown to re gard the delightful recesses of that charming citadel as thair ancesttal halls. Bat heartless and aupoetio man has sounded the death knell of the rodent's fondest dream. George Stecker, of Mount Carmel.is the invader. He is a cement contract or. and is laying concrete floors in the Northumberland oouuty prison Wood en floors that have been untouched since the Jail was built are being torn op and replaced by the more modern material. As the army of workmen have pro ceeded with tearing np the floors, thousands of rats have been eucouut ared. The men have been billing them off as rapidly as possible, and in the massacre material assistance has been rendered by a corps of oompetent dogs. On Tuesday of last week, according to actual count, over three thousand rats were slain. Mr. Stecker and oth er gentlemen of uudoabted veracity are authority for this statement. The merciless destruction of the rats may form the subject matter for ma ture contemplation. The long-tailed, ebon-eyed, nocturnal ranger had be ootne a fixture at the jail, and every man or woman or child who has there in found a haven of rest will never permit fond remembrauce to dwell up on the delightful associations there without expressing well wishes for the little animals who were suoh close and constant companions. Long term guests at this summer and winter resort who have grown to re gard conditions there as homelike will find it an additional hardship to ac custom themselves to a life without rata. We cannot believe that the pris on authorities have any warrant to thus with impunity add punishment to the life of the prisoner. Perhaps they have neglected to devote to this matter the doe consideration it de served. Unhappy felon ! No longer will he awake daring the long vigils of the night, and mose "In the prison cell I sit, Watol.ing rodents as they flit; Joy is mine in this old jail. Squinting at my pet rat's tail."

Unhealthy Kidneys Make Impure Blood. | All the blood in your body passes through your kidneys once every three minutes. fThe kidneys are your blood purifiers, they fil ter out the waste or impurities in the blood. If they are sick or out of order, they fail to do their work. Pains, aches andrheu matism come from ex cess of uric acid in the blood, due to neglected kidney trouble. Kidney trouble causes quick or unsteady heart beats, and makes one feel as though they had heart trouble, because the heart is over-working in pumping thick, kidney poisoned blood through veins and arteries. It used to be considered that only urinary troubles were to be traced to the kidneys, but now modern science proves that nearly all constitutional diseases have their begin ning in kidney trouble. If you are sick you can make no mistake by first doctoring your kidneys. The mild and the extraordinary effect of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy is soon realized.

Expert horsemen believe that a hors« can be taught to do anything that It Is possible for an animal so formed and to be utterly fearless. Thus we know of horses rushing Into battle with a fearlessness that Is magnificent, al though In the beginning of their Uvea they may have been foolishly timid, ■hying at everything unusual that hap pened to be seen In their travels. In order to teach a horse fearlessness he must be accustomed to all sorts of eights and sounds. He must come to tnow that because something that he Bees or hears Is unusual It does not fol low that It Is harmful, for it Is the un usual things that frighten him. The horse Is an animal of one Idea at a time and Is not able to discriminate, so say the men who have made a study of the horse. While he will travel along quietly close by the roar of a train, he may tremble at the flutter of a piece of loose paper flying in the wind. It Is not the frlghtfulness of the object that seems to alarm him, but the unfamil lnrity of it. Horse trainers say that the mistakes made in "breaking" and training a colt Is that It is too often done in the seclusion of some country road Instead of amid the sights and sounds that the animal must necessari ly become familiar with later. As soon as the horse becomes famil iar with anything and has learned to believe that it will not hurt him he will stand quietly or trot along peace fully, even though all sorts of noises and queer sights are about him. Thus the artillery horse will stand amid the roar of cannons, being used to the noise and not knowing that the sound predicts anguish and death. It Is well to accustom a horse to unusual sounds as soon as possible after he is trained for riding or driving. It renders him safe and docile, even though he be a spirited animal. A certain trainer of horses said that an ideal school for horses would contain thrashing ma chines, pile drivers, steam drills, elec tric, steam and elevated cars, a band of martini music and a gang of quarry men blasting rock. A horse that was drilled among such a bedlam as this would indeed prove immune to strange noises. The gentle family horse, petted by man and child, is not always train ed to all this, yet lie often makes a use ful ai'd faithful animal, loved by hie owner aud evidently making some re turn of affection.- Detroit Tribune. MONKEY PRANKS. The Wn> One Canning Apf Served • Thlevlnfr Crow. Recently a monkey got the better of the common enemy, the carrion crow, by feigning Illness. He was fastened to a bamboo pole with a running ring. When he was on his perch the crows annoyed him by stealing from bis por ringer on the ground One morning they had been specially disagreeable. He closed his eyes and feigned a bad illness When his day's food was brought him the crowe de scended upon it, and he had scarcely strength to defend It. By good acting he managed to capture one of the crows. To pluck It alive was the ob vious course. Then, instead of pulling it to pieces, like the king monkey whom Kipling and Sir Edward Buck watched enjoying a similar triumph at Simla, this monkey tossed the crow into the air, where Its own companion? fell up on it and killed It. Monkeys certainly have a sense of fun. Darwin need to spend hours watching a young female orangoutang in the zoological gardens and was sure that she had the comic sentiment. She delighted to put upon her head, like a cap, a peculiar shaped bowl, which had a droll effect, and she was sensitive to the effect which her Joke produced up on the spectators. Lahore Tribune.

WM KASE WEST. Auditor. Danville, Pa., January 10th. Weak Hearts Are due to indigestion. Ninety-nine of every one hundred people who have heart troubla can remember when it was simple indiges tion. It is a scientific fact that all cases of heart disease, not organic, are not only traceable to, but are the direct result of indi gestion. All food taken into the stomach which fails of perfect digestion ferments and swellsthe stomach, puffing it up against the heart. This interferes with the action of the heart, and in the course of time •hat delicate but vital organ becomes diseased. Mr. D. Kauble, of Nevada. 0.. says:l hid stomach trouble and was in a bad state as I had heart trouble with it.l took Kodol Dyspepsia Cure for about lour months and it cured me.
