Opening of Rifle |Practice Season.
The rifle practice season for 1905
opened yesterday. Most of the ranges
are in good condition aud ready for
work. Company commanders who are
at all inclined to learn from experienc
will get their men on the range early
and will qualify them as rapidly a«
possible. When this is once accom
plished those who can make higher
scores will have plenty of time and
opportunity to increase those already
made. Every company in the State
lost in figure of merit last year through
not having qualified men early in the
year who were afterwards discharged
without having visited the range. The
wise company commander is the one
who gets the work done as early and
as rapidly as possible aud thus not
only raises his figure of merit but has
plenty of time to gi v e to those who
may be enlisted later.
The Adjutant General's report to
1903 is oot at last It is dated 1903 but
It really covers the period from June
1902 to December 1903. It is a volume
of 688 pages but much of its contents
are without interest now because of
their age. Whatever value the reports
of some of the officers had is lost be
canse time has chauged conditions.
One interesting feature is the full
report of the operations of the troops
during the industrial disturbances of
1902 when they were ou duty for three
months. The orders, telegrams and
most of the reports made at the time
are published, as well as the accounts
showing just what these disturbances
cost the state.
A new feature in the report is the
publication of portraits of deceased
officers. In this volume are those of
Adjutant General Guthrie, Adjutant
General Greenland, Brigadier Geneial
Magee, Surgeon General Read, Judge
Advocate General Eshelman, Colonel
Hawkins,Colonel Hoffman and Colonel
Smith.
The copy for the 1904 Adjutant Gen
eral's report is ready for the printer
as soon as the legislative work will al
low him to take it.
A BBOTDBR OF
LfcWIS BKEBLK
J. P. Byerly, brother of our towns
man, Lewis Byerly, oue of the early
pioneers of Freeport, 111., died at the
home of his sou, Oharlos B. Byerly,at
that place, on April 16. 1905.
The Freeport Daily Journal of April
17 has the following obituary:
J. P. Byerly, like many of the other
sturdy pioneers of this city and coun
ty, was a native of Pennsylvania. He
was born in Northumberland county,
December 5, 1824, beiug a member of
oue of the most prominent families in
that state. Iu his early manhood lie
learned the trade of tailor. In 1849 he
set out for the west and first located
at. Cedarville. A year later he remov
ed to Freeport, which city he claimed
a? his home until his death. Soon af
ter coming here he opened a tailor
shop iu a small building where J. H.
Staver's shoe store now stands. He
was successful iu business and later he
went on the road for C. Aultman &
Co., of Canton, Chio, whom he rep
resented for twenty-five years. bor
the past twelve years he has led a re
tired life, spending his summers with
his daughter, Mrs. Coggswell, at Two
Harbors, Minn., aud his winters here
| with his son.
' Mr. Byerly always took an active
part in the municipal affairs of the
i city aud at all times he took a firm
stand for good government. When
Freeport was incorporated as a city in
1855, Mr. Byerly was chosen to repre
sent his ward in the city council aud
[served two terms in that capacity.and
at his death he was the only surviving
I member of the first two city councils,
!of Freeport. He took a stand for hou
! est city government and held to the
view that an alderman was but the
servant of the people aud their wishes
iu all matters pertaining to the affairs
of the city should be respected. He
i had an honored record a* a public
official, and while he never sought
political honors he never shirked a
responsibility in his life.
When a young man of twenty years
he united with the Second Prosbyter
ian church of this city, aud for over
sixty yeare he was a pillar of that
church and a regular attendant when
in the city. He was a consistent Christ
, ian and lived up to the teachings of
! the church in all respects. Iu his death
I the church has lost a loyal member.
Mr. Byerly was married iu Irs ua
! tive State February 22, 1849, to Miss
1 Ann Hartman, who died here in March
' 1892.
Mr. Byerly is survived by two chil
dren—Mrs. Coggswell and C. B By
-1 erly, and both were at the bedside of
their father when he passed away.
Mr. Byerly had been in feeble health
all winter, but until the last he was
vigorous mentally aud was fully aware
that his hours were numbered. Few
I indeed were better prepaied to go. All
his life he had hot oue rule: that wat
to fear God aud keep his command
meuts. He was a man of great force
| and energv and in early days of this
ccmmunity he was a power for good
aud always had the respect and esteem
of his fellow men. Iu his old age lie
retained his cheerful disposition aud
was beloved by all who knew him.
Houest and honorable in bin transac
tions, a Christian gentleman and a
mau who was uuselfish in thought,
word and actiou. He did much to build
up this community and leaves a wide
circle of friends to mourn his demise.

Sautelle and Welsh Bros. Circus
The Sig. Sautelle aud Welsh Broth
ers Combiued Railroad Shows arrived
iu Harrisburg at an early hoar Sunday
morning. The big show caniH via the
Pennsylvania railroad ou a special
train of twenty-six foot length rail
way cars. The accoutrement of rolling
stock is among the best seen in the
local railroad yards iu recent jears.
The traiu was unloaded in a remark
ably short space of time aud as fast at
the wagons came down the runs they
were taken to the circus grounds at
Sixth aud Maclav streets. Mr. Thomas
the trainmaster of this show is to be
commended in having a lot of train
helpers and drivers that do their work
in a systematic manner and also re
frain from engaging in loud talk and
swearing. Daring the entire detrain
ing of the show everything passed off
iu a pleasant way, to tfie satisfaction
of the onlookers. The street parade
started from the grounds at 10 o'clock
this morning and passed over the fol
lowing route: Down Sixth street to
Walnut, to Fifth,to Market, to Third,
to Hamilton, to grounds. The parade
was a success in ev# ry particular the
horses, wardrobes, dens, wagons und
general equipment were in excellent
shape; three hands of music furnished
the music, their renditions were of a
high order After the parade returned
to the grounds, numerocs free shows
were given, which will again te pre
sented at 6:80 this evenine.
A very large audience attended the
performance this afternoon and the
various features were received with
much favor. Clever riding acts, re
markable acrobatic displays, all kinds
of trapeze and mid-air work, witty
clowns, trained horses, ponies, and
dogs, constitute the programme. It is
a high grade show throughout and the
costume? worn by the performers ar.'
neat, clean and attractive. A first class
supplementary or side show is »lso
presented and contains much that is
new anil of a highly inti«resting char
acter. Circuses like the oue given by
Messrs. Sautelle and Welsh Brothers
do no harm to any city. Another per
formance will be given at 8 o'clock
this evening The circus will also ex
hibit here tomorrow, giving afternoon
and evening performances.— Harris
burg Independent.
Sautelle aud Welsh Brothers Circus
will soon appear in Dauville.
COMBINATION
LETTER BOXES
Two combination letter and package
boxes arrived at the local post office
yesterday, which in a short time will
be installed on our street?, where they
will prove objects of much interest,as
nothing of the kind has ever b>en seen
in any of the towns in the central part
of the State,if even in the larger cities.
They are something in a manner new.
When first seen sitting along the
street they will no doubt excite much
wonder and will he associated with
anything t lse than a letter box. They
are cabinet-libe in form, nearly two
feet BQuare and four feet high, made
of sheet steel and painted aluminum
color.
In the top of the box is a compart
ment, constructed somewhit on the
principle of the letter hoxes, which
will admit newspapers as well as
packages nearly as large as a man's
head. Immediately balow is a slot to
admit letters. Near tlie base of the
box is a large door which resembles a
closet. Opening this on his rounds the
carrier will lind tiie collection of pack-
I ages, which have dropped down from
| the top. Immediately above this is a
smaller compartment, which being
! opened reveals the letters.
One of these boxes will be placed on
Mill street somewhere uear Market
street and the other at the lower end
of Mill street near Bloom street. They
1 will prove of great convenience to the
people, who previously when they bad
newspapers or packages to mail were
obliged to walk to the post office.
GONE FOR GOOD.
No Need to Fear a "Return.
The pain returns to the aching baok
when you think you are well rid ot it.
No need to lear such a return it Doati s
Kidney Pills are used. Tliey make bad
backs well and weak backs strong and
keep them so. The testimony of Dan

I You can readily verify such proof a*
the following :
> Thomas Lewis, retired, of (il Miil
St., says:"l can only reiterate my
former statement made in 18'Jfi about
I Doau's Kidney Fills. Tliey cured me
eight years ago and the cure then made
has been lasting and 1 have had no re
turn of my old trouble. Before using
them I was greatly Moulded with back
ache. I used everything recommended
but got no relief. The lameness over
the kidneys and the terribly aching
continued in spite of everything that
I did and there seemed to be no relief
for me. I learned about Doan's Kid
ney Hills and read the statements made
by people who had used them,and con
cluded to try them. They not only re
moved the lameness and backache but
they benefitted mv health in general.
They also relieved the headaches to
which 1 had been subject tor a consld-
I erable length of time. I can recom

Engineer's Painful Injury.
Charles Wagner, engineer at the
Standard Electric Light Company's
plant, met with a bad accident, Satu
rday, which came near resulting in the
loss of <« finger. Whils at work the
second finger on his I* ft Ia id was
caught between the eccentric and
the governor of the engine in such a
way as to mangle it dreadfully.
Mr. Wagner was removed to his
home at Grand and Nassau streets.
DM. Newbaker and Shultz were called
in attendance. Tlere was little hope
at first of >aving the injured tinge',
but later on tli3 doctors became more
confident. Every effort will be made
to avert amputation. Mr. Wagner was
doing vary well yesterday
FRUIT NOT SO BADLY
DAMAGED BT FROST
State Economio Zoologist Surface is
"not inclined to be pessimistic in re
! gard to the damage done the fruit crop
|by the recent frosts. From the un
| official reports lie lias tlios far receiv
ed ho is of the opinion that, the bud
ding orchards are in far better condi
tion than has bean indicated.
In that section of the State lying
j immediately north of Harrisburg the
fruit is badly injured,just how bally,
it will be impossible to say for several
weeks to come.
In the fertile Cumberland Valley,
which is rapidly taking the lead among
the fruit-producing centers of the East
! reports conflict. Some say that all
i crops have been absolutely ruined;
| while others say that no injury what
ever has been sustained. The fact that
i the reports ara so positive and so
i diametrically opposed to each oth >r is
[ taken as the very best possible indica
tion that the damage done, however,
| severe it may be, is merely local and
does not extend through the length
! and breadth of the Valley.
The poach crop is naturally most
I affeoted by the blighting breath of the
frosts, but pears and apples have also
| been badly nipped in places. It is safe
I to say that cherries have escaped with
| but slight injury.
| One of the most encouraging features
of the reports which have reached Fro
fessor Surface is the fact that prac-
I tically no iujury has been receive !.hy
fruit trees cultivated along tlio foot
I hills adjoining the mountains. This
j is hailed as an unmistakable indica
tion that the killing frosts have breu
restricted in territory and that tlie low
lying orchards have in all probability
suffered only locally.
Exposure Caused Mis Death.
The discovery Sunday, of the body
of 7-year-old Andrew McCaulevon the
mountain a mile and a half southeast
of Mt, Carrnel, revealed a path* tic in
stance of a dog's devotion.
The lad disappeared last Thursday
morning, taking two dogs with him.
Since Thursday night,searching pirties
have been scouring the country side,
but could find no trace of rhe boy. Hat
urday night one of the dogs returned
home foot-sore ami entirely worn out
Sunday morning the body of the toy
| was found by George Deitrich. When
he approached he found the oiher dog
■ lying beside the boy.
He tried to raise the hody but the
dog savagely attacked him and drove
him off. Deitrioh summoned help hut
the dog would allow no oue to ap
proach until the father of the hi y was
brought. He coaxed off the dog and
the hody of the child was taken to the
home,the dog tollov* ing and again tak
ing up his vigil at the door of the
death chamber.
Phvsioians stat*? that the boy had
been dead for about five hoars when
found. He had evidently become lost
on the mountain and had died from
exhaustion and exposure.
Although a normally born child,and
developing uaturally, at an early age
, lie was stricken with a disease which
j robbed him of his powers at speech aud
j hearing. His mother has been an in
! mate of au asylum for the insane for a
vear aud this ttlut has apparently af
fected the child.
To a'l the neighbors aud children of
the vicinity the boy has ever been
"Little Andy" and he eujoyel a mark
ed popularity among all, and was the
butt of much innocent amusement for
the other children, all of whom now
sadly miss him.
THE AUTO-BOLIDE.
A Dip of Death Which Makes the
Heart Stand Still.
Arrangements have been completed
whereby the Barnum & Bailey Great -
1 est Show on Earth will positively ex
i hibit in Shamokin on May 24tli. This
jis indeed good news for the people uf
this city, as it will give all an oppor
! tunity to see this truly marvelous tent
! Ed aggregation. For a high-class,refill
led and moral entertainment, the Bar
| num & Bailey Show has always been
in a class by itself, and the visit of
this stupendous organization to this
vicinity will be the amusement treat
of the season. The world's greatest
aud most sensational acts will be offer
ed by the show this year, and the
multitude of startling exhibitions will
be headed by the most thrilling act of
true nerve and grit ever seen in Am
erica—Mile. Mauricia do Tiers, a
beautiful aud dashing Freuch giil,
looping the gap in an automobile. For
nerve of an increditable magnitude
tlii now famous feature termed the
"Auto-Bolide Pip of Death" is be
yond description and belief. The same
presentation as given in Madison
Square Garden, New York,during the
spring season will be exhibited in its
entirety, with the extraordinary feats
of marvelous aerial work introducing
the renowned Imperial Viennese
Troupe, grand hippodrome,exhibitions
of daring aud bravery, an avalanche
of comedy bv the thirty clowns, the
congress of earth's wonders culled
from the forests of curiosities, the
grand double menagerie of the rarest
specimens of wild beasts in captivity
and the almost impossible feat of the
Brothers Aucillotti looping and leap
| ing simultaneously the quadruple
chasms, makes the show without an
equal in the world.
The managers of the Barnum &
Bailev Show announce that the par
' ade will be abandoned this year, hot a
} wonderful exhibition of daring will he
j given ou the circus grounds free,short
ly before the opening of the doors
This new policy is to be cotumended,
.as the public has grown uninterested
in the time-worn circus parade, and
Barnum & Bailey are now centering
all of their time, money and attention
in the show itself, thereby, more than
ever, keeping faith with the public.

NATIONAL HUM!
HOI AT DATTON
William Wallace.a Danville veteran,
at present an inmate of the National
Military Home at Dayton, Ohio, has
arrived in thi< city on a visit ami is
snugly domiciled at the Heddeus
House
Mr. Walneo came to Danville in
1805. He enlisted from here and after
the war was over he returned to our
town and resided here until about
three years ago when he entered the
Military Homo He is an able music
-1 ian and plays in the Military band at
the Dayton Home. He is at present
enjoying a furlough.
The soldiers' home at Dayton is an
enormous institution, covering six
hundred and forty acres of land. There
are live thousand inmates at the home,
but a circumstance illustrating how
fast the old soldiers are passing away
is the pathetic fact that in the ceme
tery connected with the home ten
thousand veterans lie sleeping, who
once were inmates but have answered
the last roll call. Mr. Wallace says
that on the average there are probably
three funerals a day. The numerous
deaths are taken as a matter of course
and while they may have a depressing
effect on a liui.'ted circle as they relate
to tiie entire home, which resembles a
large community in itself, they may
be said to pa-s unnoticed.
That Uncle Sam treats his defenders
most generously will be gathered from
the fact, that the ex-soldiers at the
Home are permitted to retain their
pensions, are clothed and fed besides
and whenever they do any work for
tlio liotne are paid lor it. The disci
pline is strict, but. Mr. Wallace says
rh it any one in tiie least circumspect
and considerate has an easy and a
pleasant time of if. Life is never dull
especially during the summer, when
the Home i-- visited by thousands of
persons dai 1 v .
When e'er you feel impending ill,
And no d a magic little pill,
No other one will (ill the bill

Another striking example of the way
some ot the Philadelphia newspapers
are faked i-furnished in the following
article sent out from Seiinsgrove:
"Joseph (J. Losher, editor of the
Seiinsgrove Times, was in broad day
light relieved of his $l5O gold watch
and chain and a pair of gold nose
glasses by a tramp.
"The'hobo' called at the Leslier
liuine soliciting food, which was re
fused. Spying the editor working in
his flower garden, the tramp walked
up to him an I engaged him in general
conversation, during which time he
"lifted" the watch, chain and eye
glasses without Lesher's knowledge of
the trick
' The editor offers a reward ot $25
for the thief,and promises to give him
a thrashing within an inch of his life
iu the most public thoroughfare in
Seiinsgrove when he is handed over."
The storv is simply absurd. The
Seiinsgrove cotrespondeut as a "pipe
dreamer" is a rousing success, being
equalled only by the Shamokin man.
Lately the Snyder county man has
been at the head of the class almost
daily.burning the svire with rank con
coctions that are ear splitting.
As long as the news elisors of the
big daili' S allow themselves to be fak
ed i»tul mule laughing stock of the
communities fiom which they receive
such dispatches, some smart guy wilt
take the;r money every day. The cor
respondent who sends in this class of
stuff is paid by the city newspaper and
as long as he can fool his city boss the
1 business will continue.
Te rific Race With Death.
" Deatii was fast approaching,"
writes Ralph i<\ Fernandez,of Tampa,
fc'la , describing his fearful race with
' death,"as a result of liver trouble and
heart disease, which had robbed me of
sleep and of all interest in life. 1 had
tried many different doctors and sever
al medicines, hut got no benefit, until
I begau to use Electric bitters. So
wonderful was their effect, that in
three flays 1 felt like a new man, and
today 1 am cured of all my troubles."

ATHENS —WHERE
PADL PREACHED
In the seventh address of the series
being delivered in Association Hall
General Secretary William D. Lau
master took as his subject Sunday
afternoon "Athens Where Paul
Preaohed." The talk proved to be no
less interesting and instructive than
did the preceding addresses.
During the course of the meeting
Miss Emma Gearhart rendered two
solos with pleasing effect. Misß Kuth
Gearhart was the accompanist.
Mr. [iaamaster said iu part: "The
pilgrims to the World's Sunday School
Convention sailed for some time on
the Aegean Sea, that part of the Medi
terranean which lies between Greece
on the West, European Turkey on the
North, and Asia Minor on the East.
Its length is about 400 miles anil its
greatest width over 200 miles. We en
tered the harbor of the Pirano—the
part of Atliens five miles from the
city, through a narrow channel be
tween the breakwaters,ou March 25th.
Here we remained for two days and a
halt, making frequent trips in small
sailing boats from our ship to the
dock, from whence we proceeded by
train to Athens the capital and largest
city of Greece."
"The harbor at Pirano, where our
boat anchored, is a beautiful plaoe,
and was filled with sailng vessels,men
of war and boats of every description.
A veritable network of masts, spars,
sails and flags of all nations were seen
on all sides, makiug a most delightful
and inspiring picture. As usual we
had not been long in the harbor before
our vessel was surrounded by merch
ants from the city, who came to offet
their wares'for sale to the tourists.
After a description of the boats, the
people on shore, the cars and the ride
to Athens Mr. Laumaster spoke as fol
lows of the city itself: "Modern Ath
ens is a beautiful city, and delightful
ly located. Some of the streets are
broad and the sidewalks of propel
width, but as a rule the streets and
sidewalks are narrow. Marble is used
extensively and there are many beauti
ful buildings composed entirely ol
marble. The stores, bazaars, hotels
aud markets are, in most respects,lik e
other places, except that the wares
offered for sale are the produots of the
people. There are telephones, electric
lights a;id street cars drawn by horsee
hitched three abreast. Horses aud
donkeys are the burden bearers."
Mr. Laumaster gave vivid descrip
tions of Athens aud of the many placet
of historical interest in the vicinity ol
the city. "The Stadum.or raoecourse'
ha said "was laid out iu 330 B. 0., iu
a natural hollow, the complete length
of the course being 670 feet.
Gedrge had it excavated about 35 years
ago, and recently an Athenian gentle
man has rebuilt the whole Stadium iu
white marble. It is said that it will
now seat 50,000 people."
"The twelve remaiuing columns ol
the Temple of Zeus are magnificeni
specimens of Grecian architecture.
The Arch of Hadrian,39 feet high anc
40 feet wide was originally adornec
with (Jorinthiau columns, and formed
the approach to the immense Temple
of Zens.
"The Greeks are intelligent and
cultured people. Education is com
pulsory, but tbe law is poorly carriec
out in the country distriots. hence 8(
por cent, of the army reoruita are il
literate. In their bazaars and on the
principal streets can be seen men en
gaged in all sorts of occupations.
Greek soldiers are in evidence every
where. There are also to be seen man;
priests and monks m their peculia:
garbs.
"In one of tha publio gardens ol
Athens near the Temple of Olympiat
Zens stand a fine recent statue of By
ron. Greece remembers his interest iu
her fight tor liberty, and shows hei
love for the poet who stirred the hearl
of the world in favor of her people."

Music heard Many Miles.
Few people out of the many who at
tended the Great Wheelmen's Minstrel
at the Grand Opera House ou Thurs
day uight.had auv idea that the music
songs aud witticisms were heard for
many miles around. In fact a subscrib
er to either the Bell or the United
Telephones could have listened to the
songs.
It was an unique idea and probably
the first time that suoh a stunt has
ever been pulled off in the history of
the telephone business.
In front of the center aisle of the
opera house was the apparatus of the
receiver of a telephone, but iustead of
the receiver a big horn, suoh as is us
ed ou a graphophone, was attached.
To this was attached a telephone wire
(;ord ani a connection was made with
both the Bell and the United Tele
phone exchanges.
People in Berwick, Suubury, Sha
uiokin, Danville and W T illiamsport
listeued to the baud and much ap
plause was given the performers, bat
unfortunately it was not heard.

There is a Difference.
The difference betweeu Kennedy's Lax
ative Honey ani Tar and all other
Oough Syrups is that it moves the
bowels, thus expelling a cold from the
system. This relaxes the nerve-tissues
and by its healing effect ou the throat
and lungs the cough is relieved—cured
entirely. Kennedy's is the original

no opiates. Jood alike for young or

INTERESTING QUI
OL BiSE BALL
The game of base ball between the
Sanbury High school and the Old
Timer Reserves of this city last Sat
urday afternoon was played at the
Nail Mill grounds and was witnessed
by a good-sized crowd. Sunbury had
slightly the better of it as will be seen
by the score.
The game did not begin until late in
the afternoon owing to the fact that
oar players thought the game would
be called off owing to the weather and
were a little slow in getting up to the
grounds.
The game was oloso and interesting.
Both pitchers did good work. Nipple
strikng ont 9 men. Welliver had six
to his credit. Each side had a double
play. For Sunbury Fasold, Dithl and
Messimer did the act. Danville's
double went by the Evans Welliver,
i Johnson route and was a very much
i quiober play than Sunbury's. Ober
dorf of ttie local team made a long hit,
whioh looked like a foal, bat did not
start to ran till the umpire called it a
fair ball. After making the circuit of
the bases bringing in Welliver he was
declared out for not starting to ran
after he had hit the ball. Roberts hit
a neat one over the left fielder's head
for three bags. Sunbury had u > long
hits that counted The game was um
pired by Frank Mag ill.

The new culvi rt on Feny street is
proving a ligg«rligg«r proposition than was
tigDred on at first. The stone work
forming the wateiway under the sup
ervision of P. J. Keeft-r was soon car
[ ried to completion but to fill up the
spot to tha enormous width undertak
en is likely to overtax all resources.
Ground from Mill stieet was relied
upon to practically build the culvert,
bat grading ou that thoroughfare is
now finished, the ground excavated
has been dumped ill the culvert and
| there is still a "yawning abyss" ex
; tending from bank to bank of the can
al. Many sources are drawn upon to
till the culvert so as to make it at
j least passable. It has proven a piece
J of good fortune to who are
relieved of the necessity of driving be
ycn I the Borough limits and without
fear of the ordinance are permitted to
dump the contents of
backyards along with more fragrant
matter into the general pile. That
' good use is made of this privilege
goes without saving and the contents
of the ash wagons lias gone a great
way toward raising the culvert to its
preseut dimensious.
The culvert while laying no claims
to symmetry can now be very easily
driven so that Ferry street at tiiat
point is again restored to traffic.
The street at eaoh eud of the cul
vert has been cut down considerably
to reach grade, the ground being uti
lized in filling up the culvert. Still
more excavating will be required to
level down the stieet, but the ground
| will fall far short of what is needed.
It begins to look as though should
1 street paving 011 East Market street
| ever become a fact the Ferry street
i culvert will afford ample room for all
the ground and still be a considerable
way from completion.
A Creeping Death.
Blood poison crteps up towards the

which swelled up like blood poison

the poison, healed the wound and sav
ed his life. Best iu tlie world for

Still Waiting.
i The latest story of a victimized pub
i lio comes from Herndon where fifty or
sixty women paid 11.50 for stamping
I outfits which of couise, they never re
j ceived. A nice young fellow called at
the back doors of many Herndon resi
dences and showed a wonderful Outfit
for stamping liuen, etc., which he of
fered at the ridiculously low price of
*1.50.
Oh, no indeed, ho didn't give the
outfit tl en. He took the order, receiv
ed the money, (absolutely necessary to
get the money before hand,) and said
another representative would call and
deliver the outfit, at the same time
giving special instructions as to the
best way in doiug the stamping. Evi
dently the second agent became ill for
he didu't show up aud "deliver the
goods."
Now the Herndon women are pond
ering over what tliey might have done
with their f1.50. The last heard of
the slick tougued men was that they
were headed for Shamokin.
Saved by Dynamite.
Sometimes, a flaming city is saved
by dynamiting a space that the fire
can't cross. Sometimes, a cough hangs
on so long, you feel as if nothing but
dynamite would cure it. Z. T. Gray,
of Calhoun, Ga., writes: "My wife
had a very aggravated ooogh, which
kept her awake nights. Two physi
cians could nut help her; so 6he took
Dr. King'* New Discovery for Con
sumption, Coughs aud Colds, which
eased her cough, gave her sleep, and
finally cured her." Strictly scientific
