TIU3 RK-ETiKOTION' OF KOKHJjEU.
Tho overwhelming majority of votes which Mr.
J, J. Koehler received for county superintendent at
the recent meeting of the county school directors
seems to prove that the office has found tho man. The
increase of salary seems to show that- Mr. Koehler's
work has been appreciated. We hope tbat tho next
three years ot his Incumbency will see no diminution of
the progresslveness and energy which Mr. Koehler
bos evidenced during his first term as county superintendent.
Some men call themselves "Hvo wires" because
everything they have on Is charged.

Mr. Brady buttoned their collars up the back!!!

PEOPLE'S FORUM
A Small, lloiniiiet.
Dear Editor:
We receive "Tho Citizen" regular
ly in spite of the distance between
us and Its placo of publication and j
nm glad to say that wo enjoy it ox- '
ceedingly.
I wa3 pleased to find in the lat
est issue of Tho Citizen that I had
won one dollar and notice on page 2
I stand n change of getting another,
Respectfully,
EARL E. DUFFY.
This (Sets a Prize mid a l'liiro of its
Own.
Dear Editor:
1 entered my home recc :tly un
observed. Hearing a lady'd voice In
the parlor in conversation with my
wife, I listened for no 1 wasn't
eavesdropping either. I j st natu-
rally listened a moment to seo if 1 1
recognized the voice, but tnu lady
just then ceased speaking. From
my wife's remark which followed, I
inferred they were conversing on
that all-absorbing topic husbands. In
that familiar, cool, Impassioned
voice, eharacterlstlc of my wife, she
remarked "fate gave ME a model
husband." I tiptoed Into tho library
and sank into the first chair I reached
which chanced to bo before her open
desk. So carefully had she conceal
ed her opinion from me, so sudden,
so unexpected was It from anything
I had been led to suppose that I be
gan to feel acuto symptoms of being
threatened with a perpetual smile.
It was broadening so rapidly I in
voluntarily clutched my cheeks with
my hand as it were, to check it. On
the desk before me laid The Citizen
and a sudden Inspiration seized me
and I grasped her pen to announce
my independent candidacy for the
Presidency of the Smile Club, and
proceeded to prove my eligibility.
So absorbed in my topic was I
that I was lost to everything beside
until startled, yea, paralyzed by that
same cool familiar voice saying,
"Perhaps you would better recon
sider," as under my nose she pushed
a pocket dictionary, open, and with
her long forefinger pointed to
Model: A small imitation of the real
object. With lightning rapidity I
escaped becoming a perpetual smiler.
That smile came off. Now, my brow
is knitting Itself (after a pattern of
the latest knitting stitch) into sort
of a cross between one in a quand
ary, and one in the superlative de
gree. It hasn't developed sufficient
ly for mo to determine whether I
need to call a medical, legal or
spiritual adviser yet. If It doesn't
get serious, I am disposed to sell
the design to ono of our knitting
manufacturers, maybe Bower, (right
or left) and buy me a runabout. I
started to write this for the Smile
column but betcher boots it ends in
the Kick Kontest, so here goes:
I kick because women are past find
ing out,
And marriage a snare and delusion;
I kick because women's chief aim in
life
Seems to be to put men to confus
ion.
Rats!

at 2:30 o'clock, when he was sent
toward Bethany. Officer Do Grote
found him lying on the street, back
of Caufield's, alongside the railroad
track. "As he had no money, what
was tho use of giving him a hear
ing?" said Offlcer De Grote. Mullen
farms and works around. The poor
authorities won't take care of him

Costs But a Trifle to Cure
Catarrh
How many readers of Tho Citizen
know that In Inland Australia where
tho mightiest of eucalyptus trees
grow In abundance, that there Is no
consumption, catarrh or diseases of
the respiration tract.
The refreshing balsam thrown out
by these trees fills the air and is
breathed into tho lungs by the in
habitants and all germ life Is de
stroyed. If you have catarrh you cannot go
to Inland Australia except at great
expense, but you can breathe right
In your own homo the same pleasant,
soothing, healing, germ killing air as
you would breathe if you were Hying
In the eucalyptus district-of Aus
tralia. Just breathe HYOMEI; it Is made
from Australian eucalyptus and
scientifically combined with thylnol
and other antiseptics employed in
the Llsterlan system.
Pour a few droys of HYOMEI In
the inhaler and breathe It, and as It
passes over the" catarrh infected
membrane it kills the germs and
heals the raw, inflamed surface.
HYOMEI is guaranteed to cure ca
tarrh, coughs, colds, croup and sore
throat or money back. Complete
outfit Including Inhaler ? 1.00. Extra
bottles of HYOMEI cost but BO
cents. Sold by druggists everywhere
and by G. W. Pell, Honesdale.

come to them from tho elements.
That same night Mrs. Woichel who
is in mortal terror of her life, had
to appeal to Olilcer Canivan for-protection.
The house in which the unhappy
couple lived ls owned by Mrs. Welch
el, who has been thrice wedded. Al
though Mrs. Woichel, who was born
In Girdland, Is only forty-four years
old, sho had already been married
twice before, when last November
15, she became the bride of Rudolph
Woichel, the ceremony being per
formed by the Rev. Dr. Swilt.

William H. Sherman, a well-known
stone mason and contractor, ended
lilo life by suicide, Wednesday morn
ing, November 20, 1907, at the age
f forty-eight. In tho same commodi
ous, ptetty and well-furnished cot
tage on River street, in which .the
stirring scenes of last week were
enacted. Her first husband was
Louis Hartung, who, strange to re
late, was also a suicide. Mrs.
Weichel had two daughters by her
first husband, ahd ono son from her
second marriage.
The house is located near a quarry
which her second husband owned,
and which furnished much of the
building stone used in the town and
suburbs. The extensive flights of
steps leading from River to Cottage
streets were also built by him.
Rudolph Weichel, who was born
in Honesdale, is only forty-two years
old, and had never been married be
fore. His mother, who had been
making her home with him, died re
cently. Rudolph is a cigar maker by trade,
and can make good wages when he
works, which, however, It is alleged,
ho only does spasmodically. He
spends much of his time, it is said,
running from one saloon to another,
and the charge made against him by
his wife when she caused his ar
rest, was drunk and disorderly.
In the meantime peace reigns su
preme in the little cottage on River
street, and it is more than likely that
tho matter will be thrashed out at
the June term .of court.

Another candidate for President ot
the Smile Club forges to tho front.
Joseph A. Dodle, Jr., took tho Becond
position among the Honesdalo can
didates when three more votes ar
rived in last night's mall. Mr. Ross
still leads In the race, however, and
if the present ratio keeps up he win
land tho handsome gold medal which
Tho Citlxen will award to the most
popuhir man In Wayne county,
llrock l.eahor has one friend at least
In ISobletown. The morning mail
brought in another vote for Brock,
making a total of 5.
Aren't there any popular women?
They have the same chance as tha
men and that medal would make a
beautiful buckle or a fob.
There will be no regular bal
lot for Vice President hereafter. The
two names which recelvo the greatest
number of votes for President will
be awarded the handsome gold and
silver medals with which The Citizen
wishes to decorate the two most pop
ular persons in Wayne county. No,
then, it's up to you to vote for tho
person who is, in your opinion, tho
best liked In the county.

Judge Wilson cheered (?) us up
the other day with the following
story: It seems a young man with a.
Quaker friend got. married and his
friend In congratulating him said:
"Well, my young friend, theo is
now at the end of thy troubles."
The young man shook the Quak
er's hand and didn't see him again
for a year.
Then, chancing to meet the Quak
er on the street he rushed up to him
and said: "See here, didn't you tell
me that when I got married I was
at the end of my troubles?"
"Yes," answered the Quaker
gravely, "I did tell thee that, but I
didn't tell thee which end and thou
seemest to have taken the near end."
