Thousands Of Dollars Go
ing Up In Smoke
Every Day !
COKE OVENS NEAR TOWN
If the smoke from -the coke ovens fiear town was put
(through the proper process there would be enough gas to
supply all the howses and factories in Jefferson county and
snore.
If people a few years ago could have known the price
of lumber now, there would not have been so much of it
seat up in smoke.
You, nr. Householder !
What Are You Wasting ?
How about those
GAS BILLS?
We saved one man in town over $4.00 a year. Not
very much, but this waste ha3 been going on over ten
yeare $40.00. For anotlicr patty, we cut their gas bills
more than half. Probably we can do as well for you.
Consult us to-dav. If we can do anything for you we
will tell you so, ,

New Method of Preventing j
the Decay of Mine Props, j
In co-operation with the Philadelphia
and Reading Coal and Iron Company,
the Forest Service Is making arrange
ments at PotUvtllH, Pa., for conducting
a serins of tes'a In the preservation of
mine props by a new combination treat
ment of the creosote and zlno-chlorid
processes. The open tank method will
be used In making these tests.
Creosote, under most conditions, is
the best preservative In general use.
It is not only a powerful antiseptic but
is also a non-absorbnnt of moisture.
The chief obstacles In the way of its
universal adoption in wood preservation
are its comparatively high cost and the
limited supply. Zlno-chlorld, on the
other hand, can be obtained in unlimit
ed quantities and Is very cheap. Its
antiseptic properties are all that can be
desired, but it is soluble in water. It Ib
absorbed by the timber in an aqueous
solution and when the treated timber Is
exposed to damp air or soil, the leach
ing out of the chlorld Is only a matter
of time.
If the results of the proposed tests are
successful, it will be possible, at a small
cost, to permeate the interior of the
wood with zlno-chlorid. If the timber
is then quickly taken out of a hot bath
of zlno-chlorld and plunged Into a cold
bath of oreosote, the oil will penetrate a
thin outer zone of the timber and so
prevent the absorption of water and
consequently the leaching out of the
chlorld. By this method all the ad
vantages of a thorough impregnation
with creosote can be obtained at a very
much reduced cost.
It will not be necessary to wait sev
eral years for proof of the success of the
tests. Chemical analysis of cross-sections
of the wood will reveal the thor
oughness of the penetration of the zlno
chlorld, and will aUo show the condition
of the enveloping jacket of the creo
soted wood, which is expected to ex
clude water from the interior of the
treated timber. If the first penetration
is ample and the outer zone Is prao
tically waterproof, the test will be con
sidered successful.
The Touch That Heals
Is the touch ol Bucklen's Arnica
Salve. It's the happiest combination
of Arnica flowers and healing balsams
eyer compounded. No matter how old
the sore or ulcer is, this Salve will cure
It. For burns, scalds, cuts, wounds or
piles, It's an absolute oure. Guaranteed
by Stoke & Felcht Drug Co, druggists.

BULLETIN. '
WHY YOU SHOULD SEE JAMESTOWN
The Jamestown Exposition is no longer a prospect ; it
has developed into an interesting reality. Its field is dis
tinctly historical, and it liberally illustrates by picture and
reproduction, the development of American civilization and
American institutions from the day of the first settlement on
Jamestown peninsula in 1607 through three hundred years to
the present time. Famoils buildings in the nation's history
have been reproduced by thirty different states, filled with
memories of the olden times and of memorials of the upward
march.
The National Government has taken a keen interest in
the Exposition, and is one of its chief exhibitors. The dis
play of modern warships of all nations on Hampton Roads is
a unique and attractive feature, and the military manoeuvers
lend a stirring touch to the daily program.
The Jamestown Exposition is a prominent event in our
National history and should be visited by every American
citizen who desires to see what three hundred years of American
enterprise has wrought in our land.
The Pennsylvania Railroad offers attractive service via
Philadelphia and its "Cape Charles Route;" by its routes via
Baltimore and the Chesapeake Bay lines, via Washington and
the Potomas River line, and via Washington and Richmond.
The rates are reasonable and the fare varies according to the
route and length of the stay.
Ask Ticket Acents for rates of fare, ston-over orivileces.
