IF the people of Wayne county
want a proficient commissioner they

ocratic candidate for that office.
LOSES 17,000 ACRES OF WHEAT.
Kansas farmers do things in a
big way, but "Jim" Fisko of Thomas
county has rather staggered them
all in the gamble ho has made, and
is to repeat, against Nature. Mr.
Fisko is the wheat king of his sec
tion, and this year he lost 17,000
acres of wheat. This huge field was
sowed a year ago and was really a
bet that It would rain a good deal
between March 1 and May 1. It
didn't, and Mr. Fisko has not cut a
head of grain. Had he won he
would probably have cleaned up
about $150,000. He has now writ
ten friends that he has put seven
steam plows at work on the fields
and will sow wheat on all the
ground they can turn before 'the
middle of the month. This will
probably bo about 15,000 acres and
from this ho expects, unless the
weather again plays him false, to
reap 100,000 bushels of wheat next
year.
LASSOES AN AUTO.
In spite of the fact that Indian
hunting in the major portion of the
western states is now rather poor,
tho gay small boy still plays cow
boy and plans desperate encounters
with the wily red man. A little
chap was working out a campaign
In a New York street Friday, whirl
ing a lariat about his head and look
ing for a convenient Indian on a
pony to rope. But the change of
time brought an automobile along
Instead. However, the youthful
Imagination was good, and it Is real
ly but a step from a red devil wagon
to a red Indian after all. He gave
a yell and threw his rope. Unfor
tunately his aim was good, and he
caught tho cranking apparatus. The
motor didn't play fair and stop, and
tho lad was yanked half a block be
fore the chauffeur realized that he
was supposed to be the victim of a
cowboy raid. Then ho stopped and
cut loose the young hero. Tho lat
ter says that In future he will de
vote his energies to cigar store signs.
"who is who" ron rnoTiioxo-
TAltY?
"Let George Do It." A voto for
George 'P. Ross is a vote for a man
who will glvo every detail of the
business of the office careful atten
tion. Ho Is a man who has never
been frightened by hard work. He
worked his way through an academic
education and has worked hfs way
honestly and fairly Into tho position
ho now holds, No person has ever
asked a favor of George Ross that
ho has not performed If be possibly
could do so. Is not that the kind
of a man you want for public of
fice? Will you not help him with
your Influence and vote?
GOLDEN ROSARY FOR CARDINAL
GIlMtOXS.
The Knights of Columbus are to
give Cardinal Gibbons a golden ros
ary on 'his Jubilee next month, and
the chain has n rather romantic his
tory. The rosary is composed of 50
golden nuggets and is valued at
$1000. Some years ago a nun in
Newfoundland wished to establish a
home for girls, and In order to do so
asked each visitor to her convent to
give $1 for a brick to go In tho new
building. While this plan was be
ing carried out a Newfoundland
youth struck It rich In the Klondike
and returned homo to marry a girl
who was much Interested In the pro
jected home. On their wedding day
ho gaVo the nun 50 nuggets for the
work, and these were later made
Into a rosary. Tho nun valued It at
$100 and offered to sell it to one
of the officials of the Catholic society
so that the money could go to the
business fund. He took it, sug
gested it be given to the cardinal
on his jubilee and the nun was sent
$1000 in return for the present.
Not only the rosary and Its romantic
story, but the benefit it has wrought,
should appeal strongly to the recipient.

breathe it and that it does not con
tain cocaine or opium or any harm
ful drug.
You can find out all about HY
OMEI without taking any chances
whatever. Just get an outfit to-day,
read tho simple instructions, give it
a fair trial and then If you are not
willing to say that It is the best
remedy for catarrh you have ever
used G. W. Peil will gladly return
your money.
A complete HYOMEI outfit costs
but $1.00. Extra bottles 50 cents.
Republican Candidate
FOR
County Commissioner1
In announcing myself as a candidate for the nomination of Commis
sioner, I wish to state that to many of you I am well known, while for the
benefit of those who are not personally acquainted with me I will say that
I was born on a farm in South Canaan township. I am tho son of Hiram
and Rebecca Rockwell. Was educated in tho public schools of South
Canaan township and the Waymart High school, after which I followed
the occupation of farming until I was eighteen years of age. Then I en
tered the employ of C. C.Shaffer, the lumber manufacturer of Vardon.
After working for Mr. Shaffer for three years, I went to Wyoming Valley
where I was for six years engaged in the construction of coal breakers for
tho firm of Klngsley & Terrel. I next took up the business of contracting
and building but was obliged to leave the valley on account of sickness in
the family. On doing so I came back to Wayne county and settled on a
farm in Lake township, which occupation, along with contracting and
building, I have followed ever since.
Have done considerable work In the lino of cement construction and
building and, therefore, am familiar with the makng and letting of such
contracts.
The only pubic offices ever sought by me was Assessor and Judge of
Election. The former I held for two terms; the latter one term and was
also appointed Mercantile Appraiser for 1911 by the present board of
commissioners.
My father and his two brothers were soldiers in the Civil war. Jos.
Rockwell, father's brother, was killed In the war and his name now ap
pears on the monument near the Court House at Honesdale.
I am a member of the Methodist church, a member of Salem Lodge
of Free Masons, Honesdale Chapter and Mellta Commandery of Knights
Templar; also an enthusiastic member and a hearty supporter of tho
Grange, American Mechanics, Red Men and Modern Woodmen of
America.
If nominated and elected to this important office, I will endeavor to
perform duties thereof to the best of my ability and In tho Interest of tho
taxpayers. After looking me up carefully, If you find me qualified and
worthy of your support, I will most heartily appreciate your helpfulness
and also any favors you may be able to extend to me. Sincerely yours,
ARIEL, PA.
