made by one Livingston (white), who
rents a room from Ann, and, according

DRINKS, much to the disturbance of Miss
Simms. While on one of these DRINKS,

THE OLDEST MASON A Resident OF
WESTERN PENNsYLvANrA.-During the
past month newspapers in various sec
tions of the country have furnished
items concerning the "oldest Mason"
The last name mentioned in this con-
nection is that of Mr.. William Hamlin,
of Providence, Rhode Island, who is
said to have been a member of Mount
Vernon Lodge for sixty-fve years.
A gentleman who we know to be en-
tirely reliable, aud whose statement we
have no reason to doubt, informs US
that gentleman now residing near
Greensburg has been Master Mason for
seventy-four years, having been made
in 1895, at LowtherstOwn, county Fer
managh, Province of Ulster, Ireland,
by Lodge GA. On the 25th of June,
1897, he left that place for America, the
members Of his Lodge escorted him sew
eral miles to the town of Ednerway, and
on the 18th ofSeptember in that year, he
settled in Westmoreland county, Pa,
Joined and served several years as Mas
ter of Greensburg Lodge. In 1910 he
moved to this city, where he remained
two years, during which time he fire.
quently visited Lodge No. 1l3. In 1912
he moved back to Westmoreland COM
ty, twelve miles east of Greensbug,
where he has since resided.
The venerable gentleman alluded to
is Mr.. Alexander johnson, father of ex-
Governor William +. Johnson, who is
now in his ninety-sixth year, and en-
joys remarkable good health. AS Mr..
Johnson's diploma dates eight yearS
prior to that of Mr.. HauIlin's, we con-
clude that he is the oldest living men,
Der of the Order in this country. If any
can claim precedence we will surrender
the claim, but until this is done, it must
be considered that the oldest Mason is
a resident of Western Pennsylvania.

CONsEQUENCEs or NEGLECT,

Those who indorse the stupid assertion that
"Catarrh will get well of itself," or IL durable
by shutting or inhaling the nostrums In Common
use will do we'll 70 remember that the lOedi dis.
ease depends always upon yeTBlentatiVs e0nd',
ton Of he blood
Medical writer's are wont TO speak Of Catarrh
a. a simple local Inflammation, and both its i'm.
pOrtance and rational treatment are either
wholly ignored, or receive but a passing notice
from the general practitioner; and thus CatarTh
a. surely predispOses % Consumption az does
the day precsde the night, and IL T.. fact the
prelude 10 that disease In eight cases out Of ten.
The disease IL everywhere prevalent people
resort to such means always fail, then give
heed 20 the popular fallaoy that IL IL incurable
and settle into q sort Of mental apathy, enCouT
aged by the belief that the family physician
knows all that II known on the ssbect; and
thus matters stand, while the disease progresses
until hope Il dead, aud life becomes a nOckory
when comes the stercOty ped aRd hackneyed al.
vice Of "a visit 20 the country "a change Of
climate "a sea voyage" "a return OF health
Tered 20 In that which lies beyond the conanes
of the fostering grave, and the spring Il that
season which blooms eternal when LIES htful
fever IL over.
Let those who doubt this portrayal Of CAtarrh
question the poor cORsumpuve whose sun Of
life Is going down at noon OF watch IL progress
upon those who neglect its timely and judlCiOus
treatment. A little while and We miss their
coming; youth aud health have faded from lips
and cheek, the light from the eye has gone out,
the hands are folded peacefully over tho still
