II TI f .. 1 . WHY FRESH AIR? y Knrl do SchwclnlU:, Executive Secretary, Pennsylvania Society for tho Prevention of Tuber culosis. If you think all tho fuss about frosh air Is exaggerated try this simple experiment. Light a match. Put it in a bottlo and then Btop tho bottlo with a cork. In a few sec onds tho flamo will go out. Why? BocaiiBo It has used up all tho oxy gon in tho bottlo. Your life might bo comparod to a flro. Your body prouueos heat just as a flro does and for tho same rea son It needs oxygen. Oxygen Is tak en from the air by tho lungs and Is distributed through tho body by tho blood. Evory day tho lungs of a normal person handlo 105 barrels of air. If this air Is pure tho ilamo of llfo will burn brightly. If it is not, you will become sluggish and poor in health. Then don't cork up your homo like a bottle. Be Buro that you aro feeding plenty of oxygen. Night and day you should have fresh air. POLITICAL NOTES. Mr. Drukln is to go It nlono.

Hoard of Trndo Envelopes Rest. We notice in the postmaster-general's report a suggestion that peo ple writing letters should sign their full names and addresses to their let tors, and there would never bo a let ter but what could bo retnrnort If it failed to reach tho person It was in tended ror. Tho report suggests a better way than that, too; to have a small card printed on the corner of tho envelope. This will cost only a trifle, and if the letter cannot be de livered to tho address or the address should bo wrong, tho letter would come back in tho course of five or seven days, Instead of going through tho dead letter office, and being re turned to the writer after two weeks or more. Tho latter suggestion Is much tho best, and cm bo adopted at a vory small cost. In fact. th n. velopes, procured in 500 or 1,000 lots I would cost but little more than If' purchased In small quantities with - uui uiu caru. Call at The Citizen offlco and find out the price of both envelopes and paper printed with your name and address on In lots of from 500 up. RAN ENGINE WHILE HIS CLOTHES RLAZED. When ho should havo been in a hospital, T. J. Connor, an engineer on the Lackawanna railroad, living at Hallstead, ran an engine fifty-six miles from Nicholson to Clark's Summit nnd then came back to Hallstead a few nights ngo and now ho Is in a critical condition at his homo with a temperature of 101. His Injuries wero duo to setting him self allro with a torch. Connor's overalls caught flro as ho was piloting a pusher ongino from his station In tho cab. When ho dis covered the flro he kept ono hand on tho throttlo and with tho other tried to beat out tho (lames. Ho burned tho other hand and tho Hrst ignited his blouso. Then, in desperation ho wrenched the top of his lunch pall and with the tea that was In It, tried to put out his burning clothes. This didn't work, so ho slowed down tho engine and wrapped a coat around his legs, putting the flro out. Tho right leg was terribly burned, but ho stayed nt his post and ran to tho Summit and then back to Hallstead and knocked off without saying any thing nbout the flro In tho cab. Tho next morning ho was unablo to re port for work and his condition bo enmo alarming. Tho following real estato transfers yoro rocorded in Register and Re corder Leshor's office Friday: L, Estollo Payntor, of Carbondalo, transfers cortaln lands in Bethany to A. O. Rlako of Bethany.

Joseph Pohven, of Forost City, transferred to Mlchaol Mozolluk, of Clinton, lands In Clinton township, tho consideration being 450. ME (II A NT TRIANGLE OF EARTH'S CRUKT. Clovcland. Following a aeries of recent earthquako ahocks registered by tho seismograph of St. Ignotlus college, Father Odenbach, In charge of tho Instruments, noted thnt tho earth "lloo" on which Clovcland is located, has tilted slightly to tho southwest. A trangular strotch of land Is effeced, extending from Cleve land through Elmlra, N. Y., Now burytport, Mass., and southwest to Cincinnati. Tills depression, Father Odonbach believes, caused tho earth tremors ro corded last Monday, Sclontlllc measurements show tho present tilt of tho earth surface as far as one-sixteenth of an Inch In ono thousand feet. The tilting affects a part of tho earth's crust known as a "floe" which describes a glnnt triangle, with its apex, somewhere in Canada. The effect of tho tilting Is tho samo as If a giant hand within tho earth were pulling Inward at tho upper end of tho "lloo" and pushing outward at Its southern end. The tilting has continued since Monday morning. Similar tiltlngs In other parts of tho globe are responsible for tho disastrous quakes which havo at times rodked tho world. No such serious accompaniment of tho dis turbance hero is expected. An earthquake was recorded on Father Odenbach's Instruments be ginning about 0:45 a. m. Thursday. It location was not on this continent, ho thought. Appro to tho above we reproduce tho following interesting article tak en from Harper's Weekly: " Ono naturally thinks of tho earth's crust as being exceedingly solid nnd stable, except perhaps In volcanic regions where earthquakf . are of frequent occurrence. As jl matter of fact, however, tho shell of our planet is extremely sensitive and most delicately balanced, so that under tho Influences of causes that seem altogether Insignificant In com parison with the gigantic bulk and weight of the earth It yields and fluctuates In a most amazing man ner. " To an eye so placed as to bo capable of taking In at ono compre hensive glance tho whole round out line of tho globo It would not appear of precisely the same shape during an entire day or even an hour. Most of the changes referred to aro, of course, very slight when compar ed with tho size of the earth itself. "The operation of atmospheric and oceanic and other similar causes is continually bringing about changes In the shape of the earth's crust. Ono of tho most Interesting of the agencies whereby such altera tions aro effected is the carrying power of rivers. Wherever a great quantity of sand and gravel Is being 'brought down from tho Interior of a continent and poured Into the sea, i as, for instance, along the north- i western coast of Europe or the gulf 1 coast of the United States, tho weight of the earth's crust Is slowly Increasing, and tho consequenco is seen In the gradual subsidence of the shore. " Such a sinking has been doing on for thousands of years along tho North sea coast and on the continen tal sldo of the British channel. A similar depression Is occurring on the eastern odgo of our own country and along tho gulf of Mexico. It has been estimated that the gulf coast is sinking at the rate of near ly two feot In a century. HEUMATI!
