Harry S. Kifer Badly Burned.
Restauranteur Harry 8. Kifer came
within an ace of losing his life, and as
it is was frightfully burned, by an ex-
plosion in his gasoline peanut roaster
about 9 o'clock Saturday night. His
head was entirely enveloped with flame
for a brief period, long enough to
change the color of his face to that of
an over-ripe tomato, and to cause him
the most excruciating pain. His hands
and wrists were also badly burned and
blistered.
During the temporary absence of Mr.
Kifer from the peanut roaster, located
in front of his place of business, street
loafers are supposed to have monkeyed
with the gasoline cocks. At all events
when the owner returned and struck a
match to ignite the gas, a wave of flame
enveloped him with the result stated.
The peanut roaster was only slightly
injured.—Somerset Herald.
PUBLIC IS AROUSED.
The public is aroused to a knowledge
of the curative merits of that great
medicinal tonic, Electric Bitters, for
sick stomach, liver and kidneys. Mary
H. Walters, of 546 St. Clair Ave, Co-
lumbus, O., writes: “For several
months, I was given up to die. I had
fever and ague, my nerves were wreck-
ed ; I could not sleep, and my stomach
was so weak from useless doctors’
drugs, that I could noteat. Soon after
beginning to take Electric Bitters, I
obtained relief; and in a short time I
was entirely cured.” Guaranteed at
E. H. Miller's drug store ; price 50c. 9-1

ment, but try toget a better expression

BY THE GATE.
In a robe of lace and satin,
With a sash of palest blue,
With a picture hat and roses—
Roses red and wet with dew;
In the freshness of the morning
I have often seen her wait,
Drumming with her dainty fingers
On the pillar by the gate.
“All in white'and crown’d with blossoms
By the gate she stood one day,
‘| And she held her sweetest roses
That her hands could be r away
From that cool and fragrant garden
Where the sunlight kissed the lawn,
Fragrant with the breath of heaven
On that happy bridal morn.
Still it seems I see ber standing,
Sweet of form and fair of face;
Weeds have overgrown the garden
That her presence used to grace.
By the gate which is forsaken,
Clings the ivy to the wall,
And the roses there are fading—
Those she loved the best of all
The highest need of human society
today isa bold and fearless spirit of in-
dividuality. A thousand years agoone
could be conservative and not fall be-
hind the race. But now, while human-
ity rides on steam and lightning, one
cannot afford to imitate the clumsy gait
of those who went through life on foot.
A man thinks he loves his wife and
children, and because he works hard
for their support he needs no other evi-
dence that he loves them. Perhaps he
does, but when he constantly reminds
them of the expeuse they are to him,
and seems to begrudge every dollar
paid out to maintain the home and sup-
port the family, he spoils the happiness
of that family circle by selfish thought-
lessness. .
The home sentiment is the strongest
in the human heart. The mere men-
tion of home awakens all the better
impulses of the heart. Manya darken-
ed mind is dead to every appeal save
that magic word “home.” The lives of
scores of hundreds who have been
snatched as brands from the fires of
temptations can testify to the magic
power of a sister’s early love, while the
sudden remembrance of a mother’s
“good night kiss,” has stayed the assas-
sin’s dagger. In our most degraded
dens of vice, could an unseen hand
write the name “mother,” lips would
quiver, and eyes would moisten with
tears from those whose every impulse
had seemed dead for years.
NATURE'S WORK.
Nature is a great economist. She
makes the most of every opportunity,
she works up all odds and ends. After
you are wrecked and useless she leaves
the wreck upon the rocks or reef on
which you were stranded, and hoists
her signal of danger, as a warning to
others. You lose your life, but nature
wants to use you for a warning. You
lose your health, but the tell-tales are
left in your face to show the world
how it went. If by drink,nature hangs
out as her sign a red distress, it may
be, on your nose, in front of your eyes,
where you can’t escape it, and where
everybody you meet reads the terrible
warning. Though your life is a failure,
and you have become useless, nature
can still afford to keep you as an ob-
ject-lesson to warn your fellows.
TRUE MANLINESS.
Every boy belongs to a man. It may
not be amiss to study the character of
a true gentleman. What is a true gen-
tleman? Manliness is a true virtue,
virtue means purity, purity means
power. Never imagine that the swag-
gering braggart is a powerful man, or
that such characters as Corbett, Fitz-
simmons, Sullivan or their tribe are
ideal American citizens. The braggart
and bully is always a weak character.
The true gentleman is strong. The
man who endures and overcomes and
lives to bless other lives is the true
gentleman. The true gentleman is not
made of clothes. Fine feathers do not
make fine birds. So no art of the tailor
can make a man out of a tough by
dressing him in a fine suit. Some of
the men with the roughest exterior
possess the truest and tenderest spirits,
while some dressed in the height of
fashion are demons incarnate. We
like the man with a sunny smile and a
loving heart, an honest voice, and a
firm grip of the hand, a clear eye, keen-
witted, with boundless energy and a
never-failing smile, a man sincere, sub-
limely unselfish, inspired by a true
warmth of heart.
Give us such a man, obedient to the
claims of others, rather than the prim
and porapous man whose heart has the
frigidity of an iceberg. We believe
what we need today in the home and
in the church and in business is not an
austere and unbending Puritanism, but
a large-hearted, cheerful-spirited Chris-
tian brotherliness, inspired not by dol-
lars and acres, but by obedience to our
highest and best nature. The man who
encases his life in business claims or
wraps his being in a mantle woven out
of selfish acts can never save the world.
What we want is sympathy. There
are many who have fallen in the trag-
edy of life; they are bleeding from ! atus.
some wound; what they need is a
brother’s hearty hand-shake, a loving
voice saying, “God bless you, my boy,
all is not lost; your life is not gone;
there are yet unwasted days in which
you can win back a good name and an
honorable place in society. Be a man;
T’'ll stand by you; you can count on
me.”
FIENDISH SUFFERING
is ofted caused by sores, ulcers and can-
cers that eat away your skin. Wm.
Bedell, of Flat Rock, Mich., says: »Y
have used Bucklen’s Arnica Salve, for
Uleers, Sores and Cancers. - It is the
best healing dressing I ever found.”

ADDITIONAL LOCAL.
Mrs. George Newman was bound
over to await the action of the grand
jury, on Monday, by ’Squire Ww. B.
Cook, on a charge of conducting a dis-
orderly house, the complaint against
her having been made by Constable
Dayton. The evidence before the jus-
tice was of a most incriminating na-
ture, and the justice held her to court.
Alexandar King was her attorney at
the hearing, and John Smith appeared
for Officer Dayton. It is about time
that a halt was called in this case, if
one-half of the stories are true that
have been told, but it was hard work
for the officers to procure the evidence
to convict, but they seem to be of the
opinion that they now have a good
case.—Meyersdale Republican.
James D. Boyd, of Towa, Wm. Wag-
ner, Sr., and the editor, had a pleasant
little picnic all to themselves, last Sun-
day, out in the woods near one of the
finest springs in the country. The
editor furnished the eatables for din-
ner, and the spring water was free; but
for some strange reason we didn’t
drink the spring dry, in fact didn’t try
to. At supper time we all partook of a
fine supper prepared by Mrs. Wagner,
at the Wagner home, and the day was
spent most pleasantly, notwithstanding
the fact that Mr. Boyd and the knight
of the quill were tormented all day
with hay fever, of which distressing
malady both are subjects. Mr. Boyd
suggested the outing, saying: “Lets
take to the woods, where we can blow
our noses all we durn please,” and it
was a capital idea. We enjoyed the
yarns told by Wagner and Boyd con-
cerning the good old days of forty years
ago, and when we broke camp the “Old
Sledge” games stood as follows: Boyd,
4; Wagner, 5; Livengood, 7.
A large crowd of Salisbury people at-
tended the picnic at Jennings, Md.
last Saturday. Most of them went
there in a side-door palace car hauled
by Uncle Josh Messersmith’s faithful
engine, with Uucle Josh at the throttle.
It was a free train, and started from
West Salisbury at about 9:30 a. m., re-
turning in the evening. The picnic
was a great success, but the ball game
between Salisbury and Jennings ended
in a row, The Salisbury boys charged
that the umpiring was outrageously
unfair, and threw up the sponge” in
the seventh inning, when the score
stood 7 to 5 in favor of Salisbury. The
hotel did a rushing business, and the
meals served were fine. Owing to there
being no liquor sold at Jennings, the
crowd was very orderly, and it was a
treat to many persons to go through
the large model sawmill owned and
operated by Jennings Brothers.
Another thing that attracted much at-
tention was “Hook” Billmeyer’s patch
of cultivated ginseng. ‘‘Hook” has a
patch of the valuable plant that is
valued at about $5,000.
THE ONLY WAY.
There is no way to maintain the
health and strength of mind and body
except by nourishment. There is no
way to nourish except through the
stomach. The stomach must be kept
healthy, pure and sweet, or the strength
will let down and disease will set up!
No appetite, loss of strength, nervous-
ness, headache, constipation, bad
breath, sour risings, rifting, indiges-

Rice Hulls—A Dangerous Bran
Adulteration.
BY WILLIAM FREAR.
The Pennsylvania Agricultural Ex-
periment Station has recently examin-
od a sample of bran submitted by a
Westmoreland county farmer with a
statement that cattle refuse it, and
when they do eat it are purged, and
that hogs eating it sicken and die, one
farmer in that county having lost six
hogs in this way. Upon examination
the bran was found to contain rice hulls.
These hulls, produced abundantly as
a waste from the rice milling industry,
differ materially from the hulls of bar-
ley, wheat, rye and oats, because of the
fact that they contain sharp particles
of silica. These are extremely irritat-
ing to the mucous lining of the diges-
tive tract of the animals eating the
hulls. The irritation produced is so in-
tense that many animals are sickened
and often killed because of this action
of the rice hulls. Hogs and heifers
have been especially injured where at-
tempts have been made in the Southern
states to feed this product, and the ex-
perience in that locality has shown
these hulls to be an absolutely danger-
ous ingredient of stock food.
Rice hulls have been found in west-
ern samples of wheat bran sold in New
England and in the Middle West, but
this is the first case, to the writer's
knowledge, in which the adulterant
has appeared in Pennsylvania. The
sample in question showed large par-
ticles of yellow hulls that were readily
detectable upon a careful examination
of bran by the unaided eye. With a
low power lens the outside surface of
the hull is seen to be marked by fine
parallel lines covering the whole sur-
face quite uniformly and extending
parallel to the long axis of the hull.
This appearance is quite different from
that shown by barley and oat hulls.
Owing to the extremely dangerous
character of this adulterant, buyers
shoutd be especially on their guard
against it.

What’s in MeClure’s.
MecClure’s has always something that
compels attention, something immedi-
ate and significant that is important to
all Americans. The September num-
ber adds to an unbroken series of “Me-
Clure Articles” an illuminating study
of commercial piracy, the first half of
Miss Tarbell’s study of the Kansas Oil
War, and an excursion into the marvels
of modern biology, “Prolonging the
Prime of Life,” which is an authorita-
tive account of the discoveries of a
group of scientists who have determin-
ed that old age is a disease.
Color printing has never achieved
more perfect results than in the eight
full-page reproductions of Lungren’s
paintings of the Grand Canon of the
Colorado, which accompany William
Allen White’s description of the won-
ders “On Bright Angel Trail,” a bit of
descriptive writing which may well
take place with the classics of our
language.

DANGEROUS'AND UNCERTAIN.
For sunburn, tetter and all skin and

Salve has no equal. It is a certain
cure for blind, bleeding, itching and
protruding piles. It will draw the fire
out of a burn and heal without leaving

ete., are quickly cured by the use of
the genuine DeWitt’s Witch Hazel
Salve. Accept no substitute, as they
are often dangerous and uncertain.
