WEDNESDAY, JUNE 8, HMO.
While the girl of the period Is shin
ing In the pnrlor, her mother Is shin
ing in the kitchen.
There Is complaint from nil quar
ters of bad roads In America. There
Is also n popular cry of "Down with
contract penitentiary labor!" Now,
what is there to hinder the employ
ment of prison convicts on the pub
lic highways all over the country?
By this means In a few years we
might have perfect roads everywhere,
and such employment of convict labor
would Interfere with no freeman's
trade. Working the roads Is the
bane of the farmer's life.
We are glad to announce that the
differences existing between the Irv
ing Cut Glass Co. and their em
ployees have been settled. The men
have returned to work, and are
working under an agreement which
is mutually satisfactory to both par
ties. We trust that very soon every
idle glass cutter wifl be behind his
frame at work. This paper Is oppos
ea to strikes, lockouts and the boy
cott. It Is in favor of arbitration,
properly organized labor, reasonable
hours of labor, and as large wages
as is consistent with a fair profit to
the employer on the capital he has
in his business which Is devoted to
giving employment to labor.
STHANGE TALK AND SEASON-
AHIjE ADVICE.
We are not going to apologize for
our birth and existence. We are
here and mean to make tin? most of
it. Do you ask how? By giving our
readers their money's wortn in the
shape of good and useful information
regarding the county and the interest
we represent and in keeping them
posted on all the news In this sec
tion. Are you with us? If so send
us J1.50. Don't hesitate or you may
forget it. We give all the news, and
?1.50 will bring it to you a whole
year and much seasonable advice.
Drop in and see us when in town.
It will cost you nothing and it may
be we can do you some good; that
is our mission.
We do not expect to become a
Vanderbllt by means of the proceeds
resulting from the publication of this
paper, but if every subscription was
paid up to date we could pay our
debts and have enough surplus to get
us a new hat.
And now to change the subject,
we are fast finding our way into every
house in this county. Have you any
thing you want to sell to our coun
try brethren? If so, our prices for
space are low. Get terms and be
happy. If you want to talk try us.
We go right out among people, In
this houses, their shops, their places
of resort, and tell them where you
live, what you have for sale and
how you sell it. We don't stop there;
wo press them to call on you. We
hunt up customers for you and then
try to bring them face to face with
you. If we fail in getting you cus
tomers at first, try again, and again,
and again, 104 times a year. Is
trade dull? Advertise. If you don't
buyers will think you are weak In
the knees and will patronize some
one else, therefore advertise. That
Is If you have a good class of goods
and cheap. Don't suppose because
you Insert an nd, once at a cost of
ono hundred and eighty-three cents
that you are going to got a barrel of
money out of it. You won't. You
won't even get your one hundred and
eighty-three cents back. Ayer didn't
advertise that way, neither did Bar
num, nor A. T. Stewart, nor any other
successful business man. They first
fixed on their medium. They then
stuck to it. Persistency won, it al
ways does. Meet your expected cus
tomers rpgularly weok nfter week for
years, and they become your friends.
When they buy, they buy from you.
They'll nover think of going to a
stranger. Why should they? Ad
vertise porslstlngly. AdvertlBo large
ly. Choose your medium with wis
dom. Pay for your advertisements
Hko a man, and you will get rich,
and If you llvo right, dio happy and
thank ua for this revolatlon, timely
advico and admonition.
HAKD TO EXPLAIN.
One of the most amusing features
growing out of the now Tariff law
is that concerning tho ndvnnco in
the prlco of hides and of boots and
shoes, though tho duty was removed
on hides and that on boots and shoes
greatly reduced. Mr. F. w. Clarke
has an nrtlclo In tho April "Shoe
mnnw trying to explain the ridicul
ous position of the boot and shoo
dealers, who declared that tho duty
on cattle hides kept up prices on
boots and shoes, which would de
cline were the duty removed. He
says that the "members of our trade
who advocated tho repeal of the duty
on hides unwisely declared that tho
removal of the duty would lead to a
reduction In prices." He ndmlts,
as does everybody else, thnt the re
moval of tho duty actually Increas
ed the price by creating a greater
demand for the foreign product.
He nlso declares:
"It is evident that wo must pre
pare ourselves for the maintenance
of the present value of hides, leath
er nnd shoes, which, though rel
atively higher than some years ago,
arc likely to maintain this relation
to other commodities with a tend
ency to gradually increase in value."
It looks as though the duty would
have to be restored In order to put
down the prices.
W. B. Kelghlcy, head of the
Kelghley Company, Inc., of Vine
land, N. J., recently returned from
Europe where he visited representa
tive factories In England, France,
Switzerland, Bavaria and Germany.
His company have issued a state
ment In which they say:
"Shoe manufacturers have a
great deal to fear from foreign
manufacturers. They are using the
latest up-to-date machinery. Amer
ican manufacturers will be up
against the real thing as soon as the
English labor unions allow their
members to work more hours and
up to their individual capacities.
Some of the finest shoe machinery
In the world is made in England,
Franco and Germany, and is non
royalty. Some of the things that
will help us to hold our own are
a lengthening rather than the short
ening of the hours of work, and the
realization by the labor unions that
they must forget to fight the shoe
manufacturer, but must with him
face an invader well equipped, well
armed, aggressive and determined
on getting our market. Then we
must have a higher Tariff on shoe
imports; the lowering of the Tariff
on shoes has opened the door for
shoes of foreign make. Foreign
shoes are well made, and they are
being better made each year."
The Shoe and Leather Reporter
for May 12, while speaking of the
present dullness in tne shoe and
leather market, tells of the sales
representative of a large British
manufacturer of shoes who in two
months has succeeded in securing
orders in the United States for over
?90,000 worth of shoes. The price
of these British shoes duty paid
"are slightly under American-made
shoes." It is also stated that "it
Is well to be under no illusions as
to our position, especially as Brit
ish tanners are making headway."
If the American boot and shoe men
had been content to leave the Tar
iff alone and not make such gross
misrepresentations concerning the
duty on hides of cattle they would
be better off. Now they suffer and
threaten to make their workmen
suffer in order to meet foreign com
petition. That is all the result of
their demand for tariff reduction.
SUHGEON KEUN1TES SEVEUED
AUTEHIES.
Chicago, May 31. Rings of mag
nesium can be used as a substitute
for tho needle and thread in sur
gery. This is tho contention of Dr.
Victor D. Lespinasse of the North
western University Medical school,
who claims to have made a surgical
discovery which will make posslblo
tho successful grafting of several
arms and legs, the repairing of dis
eased arteries and other organs of
the body; the curing of drunkenness
and tho stoppage, of hemorrhages.
The secret, DrTfliespInnsse claims,
consists in tho successful reuniting
of several arteries. Heretofore, he
declares, surgeons havo been forced
to resort to sewing to obtain the end
desired. Tho stitching method haB
been unsuccessful becnuso It too of
ten resulted in tho formation of
blood clots or In tho construction or
enlargement of the arteries.
For five years, tho surgeon de
clares, ho has sought to find n sub
stitute for needle and thread and
has at last found it in magnesium
rings. The severed vessels are join
ed by these couplers In a manner
not unllko n union of n firo hose.
Magnesium Is used because it read
ily dissolves when the complete
union of tho severed nrterles has
taken place. Dr. Lesplnnsse claims
his next stop will bo In grafting
limbs to replace those, lost.
"I use two rings," said Dr. Les
pinasse, "putting ono on each sec
tion of tho artery. Tho rings havo
eight holes and are Joined by means
of threads through each of tho
holes. The threads are later re
moved nnd tho arteries grow to
gether, tho magnesium is dissolved
and all is normal. The unprofes
sional man does not realize that tho
whole question of nmputatlon is
ono of providing for tho Joining of
arteries to prevent bleeding to
death, and that such ailments as
Bright's dlseaso and cirrhosis of tho
liver are merely dlsenses of enlarged
blood vessels."

REPAIRS QUICKLY MADE.
During the past few montns great
activity has been manifested by the
master mechanics and working
forces of the various shops main
tained by the Erie railroad In a
friendly competition In rapid loco
motive repairing. These competi
tions have demonstrated that repairs
can be accomplished In much less
time than ordinarily, without in
any way slighting the work. It, haB
also created great enthusiasm at the
shops and stirred local pride in an
unusual degree.
Following are three of the most
remarkable performances. At the
Meadvllle shops, It took 36 hours
to completely overhaul a locomotive
from the time of commencement un
til It was ready to re-enter the ser
vice. The Susquehanna shops then
took hold and completed a similar
Job In 47 hours. Following this,
tho Hornell shop entered the race
and completed a task In 24 hours
and 33 minutes. Not being satisfied
with the result of the first effort,
Susquehanna shops asked for an
other trial, which was granted, and
In the record competition turned
out an engine in tho remarkable
time of 13 hours, 34 minutes, there
by beating all previous records.
These competitions were held in
strict conformity to rules laid out
to govern them and no undue ad
vantage was taken at any shop.
The locomotive repaired at tho Hor
nell shops had attained a mileage
record of 47,485 miles, previous to
undergoing repairs, while the loco
motive repaired at tho Susquehanna
shops, at tho last competition, had
covered 71,787 miles previous to
entry.

calyptol, a soothing, healing, germ
killing antiseptic, that comes from
tho eucalyptus forests of inland Aus
tralia whero catarrh, asthma and con
sumption wero nover known to exist.
Hyomei is pleasant and easy to
hroatho. Just pour a fow drops into
tho hard rubber inhaler, uso as di
rected, and euro is almost certain.
A complete Hyomol outfit, lnclud
Ing inhaler nnd one bottlo of Hyomei
costs only $1,00 at druggists overy-

ed. A WOMAN'S VILLAGE
THE LITTLE TOWN OF BETH
LEHEM. Special to The Citizen.
Bethlehem is the woman's town
of Palestine. Cities there are that
seem to have been made for the men,
but this is somehow different. Did
the Great Event which gave the
town Importance for all time so im
press the minds of its women as to
make the difference?
The great center of Bethlehem is,
of course, the Church of the Nativ
ity. While we were passing through
this sanctuary a number of pilgrims
and worshipers were sitting and
kneeling upon the floor, and among
tho number a woman of Bethlehem,
a young mother, nursing her babe.
High in the ceiling ono window was
open, so that the only clear sun
light that entered the sacred place
fell upon the innocent child and the
really beautiful face of tho girl
mother. Do you wonder wo looked
twice at the pair?
It is a comfort to know that all
branches of the Christian church are
agreed concerning tho accuracy of
the tradition concerning the locality.
Here we may well believe Christ
was born of tho Virgin Mary. The
church built over tho cavern-stable
In tho limestone rock Is perhaps the
oldest christian church In tho world,
having a history which carries us
back to Constantino. In Bethle
hem also tho Crusaders had their
seat, and hero Baldsla, whose sword
you may touch In tho Church of tho
Sepulcher in Jerusalem, was crown
ed their king.
Hero also, whero tho Princo of
Pace wrfs born, have been wars and
bloodshed. Before you can pass
through tho door of tho church,
which was originally a spacious
arch, you must stoop to accommo
date yourself to tho low, narrow
portal. The- great gateway was re
duced to its presont dimensions to
facilitate tho defence of tho church
In case of hostile attack. But It Is
well that tho proudest should stoop
here, even though war was the cause
of closing tho high nrch. Whether
ho is a Christian or not, ho must
recognize tho importance of tho
event which took placo horo.
About tho wholo building and
Indeed tho wholo town thero is a
simplicity and modesty which Is very
Impressive. Tho Interior of tho
church is dignified, If not beautiful.
Tho great reddish Umestono plljars
mny not havo been brought from the
ruined tcmplo in Jerusalem as they
claim, but thoy uro worthy to staud
whoro they do. Tho gullded glory
has departed from roof and nnvo
and tho splendor of tho mosaics
only a namo, but tho quiet beauty
of tho mnrblo remains.
But If thero Is agreement about
tho history that was mado hero, thero
Is, unfortunatoly, nono in doctrino.
Tho various sects which havo ob
tained certain property rights In tho
Grotto of tho Nativity seem to hold
eternal feud with each other. Tho
Turkish government keeps soldiers
constantly on guard lest ono Beet
should trespass upon the rights of
tho other, or oven steal tho other's
goods. Onco every hour tho sentl
nnls arc changed. No mnn over
serves a second time. Each soldier
when ho leaves must report tho num
ber of pieces of property he leaves,
counting even the number of nails
In the floor of the manger birth
place. Thus scores of Moslem sold
iers every week and thousands every
month lenrn to dcsplBo tho divided
churches of Christendom for tho
petty quarrels, which used to end In
bloodshed before tho government
undertook to act as guardian.
One of tho many traditions thnt
daunt the visitor In Palestine ling
ers about n certain field In the up
per edgo of the village. It Is called
tho Field of Peas. There Is a legend
that Christ was passing this field and
saw n man sowing peas. He asked
the man what ho was planting and
received tho answer "stones." In
punishment for the falsehood It Is
said that tho Saviour replied that
the field should produce nothing but
stones forever. To this day hund
reds of pilgrims passing from Jeru
salem to Bethlehem stop on this
barren waste to pick up the pea-like
pebbles that aro to be found whero
the Umestono outcrop disintegrates.
The field whero tho shepherds
watched their flocks on that great
Christinas night Is far more im
portant thnn such a place as the
Field of Peas. Here we are once
more face to face with tradition.
But If the stony hillside which is
pointed out is not the Field of the
Shepherds, where the angels sang
their Song of pence and goodwill, It
ennnot be far from It, for the town
Is too small to allow much margin
of distance.
The women of Bethlehem are freer
than their sisters elsewhere In Pales
tine. Perhaps this Is because It has
been a Christian village for so many
centuries. These women do not veil
their faces ns the high caste Moslem
women do, but wear a distinctive
head-dress of white. Married wom
en have this cloth lifted by some
framework Into a sort of peak, while
single women let tho cover cling to
their hair nnd shoulders. Our party
remarked that tho most beautiful
woman we saw in Palestine came
in this modest garb to the Church
of the Nativity. Can it be that the
contemplation of the most perfect of
women, the Virgin Mother, has had
this effect upon the women of Beth
lehem? Beside Mary, the town brings to
fragrant memory the loving Ruth,
a more remote ancestress of Christ.
Somehow the beautiful story of her
life seems more real as it must be
more vivid when it Is read among
the wheatflelds that lie in the valley
below Bethlehem. We did not see
any of the women of the village
working in the fields, for the time
of sheaves had not come, but the
sisters and wives of the modern vil
lage do bear their part in the work
of the shops where they manufacture
pearl jewellery and ornaments for
women's wear which support many
of the families of the town.
In considering this whole question
of the condition of women In Bethle
hem It must be remembered that
the crusaders Intermarried for more
than a hundred years with the Chris
tians of the town and that tho In
fluence of chivalry, as well as of re
ligion, was more potent here than
anywhere else In the east. This may
well account for the beauty and tho
position occupied by the women of
Bethlehem. Nevertheless I am going
to hold to my own more sentimental
explanation.
