About three months ago Princi

Judge W. G. Covington, of GeorJ
ia spoke to u good sized audience
at tho court house on Tuesday even
ing. The Judge has tho reputation
in the south of being a speaker of
great power. Tho speech was moro
of an argumentative character in
which ho summed up tho case of the
People against the Saloon, tho audi
ence being the jury, and there Is no
question what tho verdict would have
been had a vote been taken. Tho
audience remained until the last
word was spoken, and their repeated
applause showed their Interest. Mr!
Brandt" mado a short address appeal
ing for funds to support tho Anti-Saloon
League movement. Mr. II. C.
Jackson, who Is a candidate for tho

tative, was called on. Ho stated If

Captain Carl J. Kelly left on
Thursday noon for Mt. Gretna, where
a number of the officers of the Thir
teenth regiment will spend a week at
a camp of Instruction to be conduct
ed under the auspices of the state
by officers of the regular army. First
Lieutenant W. H. Mumford and Sec
ond Lieutenant E. F. Donoy are also
among the party.
A number of Honesdale people
remained up on Wednesday night
with a view of witnessing the sweep
ing of old mother earth by the tail
of the comet, but all were disap
pointed as nothing was visible, and
the only difference In the appear
ance In tho sky was an increased
brightness in the western portion of
the heavens.
Krantz & Smith have received a
very satisfactory offer to locate their
business in another town. Messrs.
Sell & Krantz will leave to-day to
meet the parties, and if proper ar
rangements can be made, will at once
close tho deal, and arrange for re
moval. We hope for Honesdale's
sake that this deal will not be con
summated. We need every factory
and every workman, as every pay
roll that leaves town Is a loss to our
merchants and town.
Persons who are skeptical that
the comet has any efTect on the earth
are advised to travel to Skelpentown,
N. J., where David Easton has a large
collection of chickens. For the last
week those chickens have been ob
serving tho comet season by sleep
ing. Hut Easton's'hens still lay eggs,
although they won't wake up long
enough to cackle about It. Easton
has fourteon laying hens. Each
morning when ho goes out to see
If tho flock has awakened he turns
over each of those hens as If sho
were a marble statue. Underneath
ho always finds an egg.
I note that Hon. A. T. Searle, of
Honesdale, president judge of the
Wayno county courts, Is presiding at
the court of Quarter Sessions of Lack
awanna county this weok. This, I
believe, Is the third full week that
Judge Searle has heard cases In tho
court of Qunrter Sessions In this
city. He has also presided at spec
ial sessions In Scranton and Wilkes
Harre and has given universal satis
faction that has stamped him u jurist
of unquestioned ability. Judge
Searlo began his legal career in
Honesdale In 1882 when ho was ad
mitted to tho Wayno county bar.
Hon. J. BonJ. Dlraralck of this city
was a candldato at tho saino time,
and Mayor Dimmick and Judge Searlo
stood sldo by sldo as they took the
oath upon being admitted to prac
tice as attorneys. Mayor Dimmick
soon after turned his attention to
banking, while Judge Searlo stuck to
law. Whllo yet young men both
have achieved success that comes to
but few in the struggle of life.
Judge Soarlo, I understand, will go
to Harrlsburg next weok to preside
at tho courts in that city. Tribune-Republican.
L. Sadler, who is employed by
Kelly & Stelnman, has moved to De
posit, and Is now occupying C. D.
j Haync's houso on Second street, that
' city."
, Tho eight-hour law for tele
graphers .has been declared constitu
tional by tho Supreme Court, and
the Erie Railroad Company put tho
law Into effect on May 8th.
Tho gong sounded an alarm for
tiro at 11:52 a. m. on Thursday.
The llro companies were soon on the
wny to the scone of tho fire, which
proved to be Frank Cory's barn on tho
rear of his Court street lot. Tho llro
was caused by the burning of some
rubbish In the yard, which Ignited
some material In tho barn. Tho
emergency hose, which had been
placed near the factories at that
point, wns brought Into uso, nnd be
fore the lire companies reached the
scene, the fire wns under control and
soon extinguished. Hose Compnny
No. 1 and Engine Compnny No. 3
both responded promptly. The loss
was very slight.
Dr. Peterson has relald his side
walk on West Eleventh street by
bringing It up to the grade. He has
also overhauled his curbing so that

THE WHITE PLACUE.
How to Ward Off the Dreaded Scourge
of Consumption.
"How can I keep from catching tu
berculosis? You say wo breathe a
whole colony of the germs into our
systems every day. Is It pure luck that
keeps a man from becoming a con
sumptive?" This question Is often asked of phy
sicians, who tell you how great a per
centage of the population has the dis
ease, and you wonder how to keep
out of that irccutage yourself. The
formula Is simple. Every one gets the
germs Into his system, but If n man's
condition is healthy they can't gain a
foothold.
Avoid excess of every kind. If a
man drinks or smokes too much he
gives an opening for the attack of the
disease germs. The corpuscles which
nature made for the watchdogs of the
system and which normally chase
down and devour the injurious genns
go to sleep at the switch nnd lose In
terest In hunting.
Don't cat too much.
Got all the fresh air possible. It's
still free.
Sleep with your bedroom windows
down from tho top nnd up from the
bottom, and open 'em as wide as possl--ble.
But uvohl drafts.
If you work with a man who Is un
cleanly reform him gently, but firmly.
It may be a man's privilege to go un
washed, but no man has a license to
become a passenger train for disease
bacilli which have limitless transfer
privileges.
Don't work too much.
Don't rest too much.
If great cure 13 taken there Is no
danger of infection even If you live
with a consumptive. The patient must
use a cup or paper that can be scalded
out or burned. Clothing and bedding
used by tho patient must bo boiled
regularly. Tho patient's room must bo
kept free from carpets and hangings
that would offer hiding places for
germs. There should be separate
dishes for the patient. There must bo
a generous uso of antiseptics. Tho
houso must have plenty of fresh air
and sunshine.

Tho Code of Slang.
It Is rather n clever notion In a re
cent story (o make two Americans
communicate with each other by
means of slang lu a Central American
republic at a time .when all telegrams
are carefully Inspected. If they used
Spanish, thnt, of course, would bo Im
mediately understood. If they used
English the officials would And some
one to translate It. Asf they hud no
cipher code prepared lu advance, they
could not resort to It. Consequently
the llr.st American telegraphs to the
other American lu "the great aud po
tent code of slang." Here Is a tele
gram which slipped through the fin
gers of the curious Central American
officials:
"Ills nibs skedaddled yesterday per
jack rabbit line with all the coin in the
kitty and the bundle of muslin he's
spoony about. The boodle is six fig
ures short. Our crowd in good shape,
but we need tho spondulics. You
collar it. The main guy nnd the dry
goods are headed for the briny. You
know what to do. Bob." Bookman.

Explained.
"Why do so many sick people in
hospital wards like to be put in a bed
next to a patient from the country?'
suld the young nurse to the houso
doctor.
"Graft," said tho doctor. "Most
country or suburban patients come
from homes where there are chickens
and maybe a cow. When the folks
come In for ti visit they bring eggs
that were laid that morning and fresh
milk, cream and butter. If the person
lying beside the country patient !s
very sick he appeals to the sympathies
of the country visitors, and the next
time an extra egg and an extra pint
of milk come."

Stomach Dead
Man Still Lives
People who suffer from sour stom
ach, fermentation of food, distress
after eating and indigestion, and seek
relief in large chunks of artificial
dlgestors, are killing their stomachs
by Inaction just as surely as the
victim df morphine Is deadening and
Injuring beyond repair every nerve
in his body.
What the stomach of every suf
ferer from indigestion needs is a
good prescription that will build
up his stomach, put strength, energy
and elasticity Into It, nnd make it
sturdy enough to digest a hearty
meal without artificial aid.
The best prescription for indiges
tion ever written is sold by druggists
everywhere and by G. W. Pell, and
is rigidly guaranteed to build up the
stomach and cure indigestion, or
money back.
This prescription is named MI-o-na,
and is sold in small tablet in
large boxes, for only 50 cents. Re
member the name, Ml-o-na stomach
tablets. They never fall.
