Kill Catarrh Germ
I USE BOOTH'S JYOMEI
Try tho sure and moat effective
way to reach the raw, tender Inflam
ed mucous mcmbrano infested with
catarrh germs uso Hyomel. You
breathe It no stomach dosing.
If you suffer from raising of mu
cus, frequent sneezing, husky voice,
discharge from the nose, droppings
in the throat or any other symptoms
of catarrh breathe the germ-destroying
air of Hyomel. It acts di
rectly on the inflamed membranes,
destroying the disease germs in tho
nose, throat and lungs and giving
quick and permanent relief, or money

pocket inhaler and bottle of liquid,

SHE'S A SAVING MAYOR.
Economical Miss Munson Is Also Po
lice Head and City Attorney,
Even a little placo like 'Wnrrenton,
Ore., with only a few hundred people,
has its civic problems, and a woman
mayor is credited with solving some of
them. Her namo Is Miss Clara C.
Munson.
Wnrrenton formerly employed a city
attorney and a policeman. As mayor,
backed up by the council, Miss Mun
son was given a free hand, so she dis
pensed with the services of both these
officials. Sho is now mayor, city at
torney and chiof of police. The money
saved by dispensing with tho services
of a city attorney nnd police officer is
going Into improvements, rebuilding
old sidewalks and putting in new ones.
Mayor Munson even gets free1 legal
advice. This is furnished by the
mayor of a neighboring town. Tho
wide publicity given Miss Munson ns
the only western woman mayor result
ed in her receiving eight or ten pro
posals of marriage from men scattered
from Alaska to the mining camps of
the southwest.
Mayor Munson is not very much in
terested In woman suffrage.

WIRELESS NEWS TO TRAIN.
Various News Happenings Flashed to
Lackawanna Express.
Bulletins, telling of tho Boston lodg
ing house lire, a suicide on tho court'
'house steps at ScrantonPa., and other
happenings of the day were flashed
by wireless from a Scranton newspa
per office recently to passengers aboard
n Lackawanna express train as it sped
toward Slatcford, six miles away.

Jess messages was tho greatest since

TO IDENTIFY MAN BY VEINS.
Italian Professor Proposes Substitute
to the Bertillon System.
Professor Tamassia of the Univer
sity of Padua, In Italy, advocates the
adoption of nn Identification system,
the basis of which is tho photograph
ing of 4ho veins of tho hands.
Ho says the merest novice can de
tect variations, -while long training is'
necessary to distinguish differences in
linger prints.
A LASTING POWER.
The most lasting power over
others is gained by understanding
them and sympathizing with their
best a:ms and thoughts. It is so
great a power when steadily culti
vated that it appears almost miracu
lous, yyet it can be gained by any
one who will take the trouble to
consider, understand and love
others.

Tho Praise Tlint Comes From Thank

Ono kidney remedy has known
merit.
Honesdale people rely upon it.
That remedy is Doan's Kidney
Pills.
Honesdale testimony proves it re
liable. Fred Kroll, Sixth and Court Sts.,
Honesdale, Pa., says: "I can recom
mend Doan's Kidney Pills In return
for all they have done for me.
Whenever my back becomes lame or
any other symptom of kidney trouble
bothers me, I take Doan's .Kidney
Pills and they bring relief. Others
of my family have been benefited by
this remedy."
If your back aches if your kid
neys bother you, don't simply ask for
a kidney remedy ask distinctly for
Doan's Kidney PHls, tho same that
Mr. Kroll had tho remedy backed
by homo testimony. 50c all stores.

A famous animal trainer was talking
to a reporter in New York. Hp said:
"Tho secret of animal training Is
gentleness. Nothing sudden or brusque
must be done. An unexpected caress
may anger an animal more than a kick
in tho ribs. Sudden, brusque, unex
pected things never go, no matter how
well they aro meant Once I was
showing in Scotland. We trainers sup
ped one night with a Scotch admirer.
Tho old man was the soul of hospital
ity, but I admit I was rather startled
when ho leaned toward mo and said:
" 'Stick in. man Conklln, stick In. Yer
frien' Coot's twa muffins aheld o ye.' "

Nile had its appointed priests, fes
tivals and sacrifices, and if its rising

tiful youug'glrl was thrown into its wn-
ters and drowned In order to appease
the god's anger and secure bis favors.
A CHRISTMAS DREAM.
I
DREAMED a dream one Christmas
eve,
H The strangest one, you may believe.
JL 'Twas of a world divinely fair
Beyond the blue, far off. somewhere.
There grief and tears were all' unknown,
'And love supremo reigned on the throne.
Ah, such a Joyful, gladsome world,
where sorrow s bolts were never hurloul
Here faces gaunt with poverty
Deride the rich In mockery.
All equal thero were each to each.
Tho best within a nauner'a reach.
No surging, crushed, downtrodden masses,
No proud, elite or clan mado classes;
wo seasoned joys for just a few
In this fair realm beyond the blue;
No stalking want with piteous voice;
No poor to feed. All had their choice
Of that which seemeth just and good.
All things were rightly understood.
No broken hearts orracklng pain;
No nvarlclouB, blood bought gain;
No grasping, grinding, selfish greed
That other's welfare doth not heed.
All things were perfect ns the love
That ruled (his spotless world above,
Were this Bad world like to my dream
And love ruled all, Its right supreme,
Ah, where tho chance for kindly deeds?
Were there no poor to volco their needs,,
Were such a state sublimely true,
Oh, where the good that we might do?
Were there no faces dewed with tears,
Wherei then, the solace of the years?
If this world know po grief, no care,
Could we our brother'B burden share?
Ah, love would lose much of Its worth
Were there no charity on earthl
Perhaps 'tis better as It Is
Than live In realms of perfect bliss,
For out of evil cometh good
Whon God is rightly understood.
And since we live mid toll and care
And not in halcyon dreams somewhere
Uiplft and help thy fellow man
And do the greatest good you can
To make this world Ilka that above,
Controlled and Bwayed by Chrtstly love.
Howard Is. Wentworth,
The Unwise Christmas
'Twas the night beforo Christmas, and all
through the house
Ono creature was stirring, nnd that was a
mouse. '
Tho stockings that hung by the chimney
with caro
He'd nibbled tho toes of them, pair after
pair.
Ho ato all the candy, six candy canes, too.
Not a morsel was left when that mouse
had got through. ,
The moral of which If you know what a
sight is
A mouse that has perished of acute gastritis-
'
That Christmas itself may be called into
question
If carried so far lt'creates Indigestion.

SAYS INDIAN DISTRUST OF
AMERICA IS VANISHING.
Changing Attitude Shown In Pleated
Acceptance of the American Flag.
Tho Rodman Wanamaker expedition
of citizenship to the North American
Indian tins made a journey nearly
equal to tho circumference of the globe,
occupying more than six months of
time. Three thousand miles wero trav
eled by stage over mountains and des
erts. Ono hundred and eighty-nine
tribes have raised the American Hag,
joining tho thirty-two Chiefs who took
part with President Taft In opening
the ground for the national Indian me
morial at Fort Wadsworth New York
harbor, on Washington's birthday last.
Tho expedition has obtained the sig
natures and thumb marks of this array
of red men, every tribe in the United
Stntes being represented, nnd will be
able to furnish the government and tho
nation with a comprehensive, survey of
all tho tribes both as recorded by the
camera and by the pen. The last west
ern reservation has been visited, with
the consciousness, says Joseph K.
Dixon, leader of ,the expedition, that
tho Hag' has made a new era for the
Indian and has changed the destiny of
a whole race of people.
One of the five great races of the
world because of this expedition faces
a new morning. The influence of tho
flag has united tho white man and tho
red man In a common purpose, com
mon aims, common aspirations. A
great chief said: "Since the flag has
come to us our road now leads straight
toward tho new morning."
Reading a Horse's Face.
The teachable, tractable horso la
broad and flat between the eyes. The
bony ridge of his face dishes slightly
from tho point where the face narrows
toward the nostrils. Ills ears aro well
set, sensitive and far apart, with a
well defined ridge of bone extending
across tho top of tho bond between
them. Always feel for this rldgo in
judging a horse. The eye should be
large, clear and bright, with a promi
nent rldgo of bono along the Inner and
upper edge of the socket London An
