A DANGER TO CENTRAL AMERICAN UNION.


Panama, Oct 16-Thcre be doubt, If the
utterances of the press TO be accepted faith
full reflex OF public opinion, that the people Of the
Central American republics ardcntly desire TO effect
the proposed union OF the five republics into large
nation Tho only divergence of opinion is in regard
TO the question whether not the union shall be a
confcderacy. The preponderance of public opinion
would seem to be decidedly hostile TO the federal
form Of union.
Great alarm octasioned in Nicaragua and
Government protests were promptly issued when It
was announced that Zeldon-Menocal had concluded
contract with Costa Bica in regrd to the Nicaragua
Canal. The Nicaraghans want the Nicaragua canal
for themselves exclusively.
While all the Central American republics are going
ahead with Improvements and are making strenuous
efforts for accomplishing union, there want
ing disQuieng elements that may In the near fuure
develop into open hostles If the proposed union
be not speedily effected Between Costa Ica and
Nicaragua particularly does trouble appear to be
brewing over the canal project

A Warning.

The modes of deaths approach are var
ions, and statistics show conclusively that
more persons die from diseases of the
Throat and Lungs than any other. 1t is
probable that everyone, without exception,
receives vast numbers of Tubercle Germs
into the system aud where these germs fall
upon suitable soil they start into life and
develop, at first slowly and is shown by a
slight tickling sensation in the throat and
if allowed to continue their ravages they
extend to the lung producing Consumption
and to the head, causing Catarrh. Now all
this is dangerous and if allowed to proceed
will in time cause death. At the onset You
must act with promptness; allowing cold
to 60 without attention is dangerous and
may lose you your life. As soon as you
feel that something is wrong with your
Throat, Lungs or Nostrils, obtain bottle
of Boschee's German Syrup. 1t will give
you immediate relief.

Incidents of the Republican
Meeting.


Two prominent Republicans from
Elkton after the parade on Friday
evening were so highly entertained
at the house of Democratic friends,
that they missed their special train.
after which they marched to the
hotel missing the enthusiastic young
Republican, who had set out with
torch in hand to invite and escort
them back to their friends house to
spend the night. The last seen of
these gentlemen they were on a
double quick step for the GIG train
next morning. Such is life
Another ''incident" on the same
occasion in which this "young re-
publican played a prominent part,
occurred earlier in the day. A gen.
tleman of West Chester Club met
"young republican" after marching
into town, dry and dusty and offered
him ten cents if he would take him
where he could get a drink of fresh
water and wash his hands, and the
youngster took the gentleman to his
own home. BY this time quite an
intimacy had sprung up between the
parties, and the gentleman told the
boy he would give him another dime
if he would escort him over town and
show him the Sights Having
earned 20 cents the young adventur.
er proceeded TO invest in chinese
lanters, for the illumination, when
couple of his companions offered to
wager nickle each that his papa
wouldn't allow him to decorate and
illuminate He took both bets.
When the boy reached home with his
Illuminating goods, his mother told
him if he put them up he shouldn't
have any supper. Young hopeful
struck out Immediately in search of
his West Chester friend and related
to him the condition which con.
fronted" him, as Cleveland puts it.
His red coat friend assured him that
he shouldn't suffer from an empty
stomach. to put up his decorating
paraphernaila, and he would treat
him to an oyster stew.
When the young politicians father
came in after dark, and saw the
lanterns and flags displayed he in
quired how the "wind' had been
raised to buy such republican out
fit. The boy gave him graphic ac-
count of his adventures and wound
up with the nickle bets he had made
with two Of his companions, which
his father disapproved of and told
him the bets must be "declarad of"
But hopeful told his father it was
too late. The boys had paid their
bets and he had invested the money
in flags which were hanging beside
the chinese lanterns in the front
yard. That boy is one of the coming
republican politicians from good
democratic stock.

off toward the depot where three spe-

down over the town. But the most
glorious feature of all which crowned

Ancient Marine Heroes.

The adventurous spirit and courage
of the men who, centuries ago, sailed
on unknown seas in search of new
worlds amaze me. If there were any
new worlds left for us to discover, we
would go in iron steamers and enjoy
comfort, luxury and safety. But those
men sailed in ships, some of which
were not over twenty tons burden,
sailed without charts, Or canned milk,
or electric hair brushes. or smoking
room, or any one who would play poker
or bet on the daily run of tho ship-in
fact, without any of the modern COM
forts of ocean travel; but they kept on
discovering us, all over this confident,
even when sometimes they had to work
Sundays, and go for days without food
and stand watches to keep the sailors
from lunching off each other. I really
think they deserved credit for this,
especially when we consider that wher
they got through a job of discovering
and went home and reported to thu
kings who owned them, they wer,
sometimes put in prison, or had thei
heads amputated. - Colonel Armaos~

BEAUTY IN WOMAN.
Rules for Cultivating the Most Lasting

Rules for Cultivatine the Most Lasting

Beauty of expression is more thar

l. Learn to govern yourselves and to
be gentle and patient.
2. Guard your tempers, especially
in seasons of ill-health, irritation and
trouble, and soften them by prayers
and sense of your own shortcomings
and errors.
8. Never speak or act in anger until
you have prayed over your words or
acts.
4. Remember, that valuable as is
the gift of speech, silence is often
more valuable.
5. Do not expect too much from
others, but forbear and forgive, as you
desire forbearance and forgiveness

6. Never retort a sharp or angry
word. It is the second word that

PlTH AND Po,N1.

The great trouble with man Is MOI
lack of opportunity, it is the need Of
disposition to improve the opportu.
mites he has.
The great secret of getting on in
the world-a secret which few have
learned-is to know when to speak.
and especially when to keep still.
Men suppose that their reason has
command over their words; still it hap.
pens that words in return exercise au.
thority on reason.-Lord Bacon.
Don't say that a man is bow-legged
even if he has that eccentricity of gait.
Just say that he, doesn't obstruct the
view of the scenery when he is walk
ng.-Western Ploe0n.ars.
Unless a man has trained himself
for his chance, the chance will only
make him ridiculous. A great occa-
sion is worth to a man exactly what
his antecedents have enabled him to
make of it. William Matt)teaos.
Most of the very rich men of this
country were once poor. But unfort
unately their change from one condi
ton to another has been effected very
largely, in ways that left them little
sympathy for those of their fellow.
men who have less of pluck and luck.
IL love you for yourself alone" as
the blackbird said when he swallowed
the gooseberry. This is the common,
place expression of false friends, who,
while they make the utmost use of us
even to abuse, profess the most I'm.
bounded admiration Of, and regard for
us.-Quiver.
True economy consists in proper
adjustment of time, strength and
money. It does not consist solely in
saving money; it may consist in spend
ing it. It does not always consist in
saving bread crumbs for bread pud-
dings which frequently prove to be
nothing more than favored and sweet
ened poultices.
Sometimes it is a positive injury
to another to respect his prejudices.
But, if you must cross them, do SO as
gently as possible. He who has learned
how to combine gentleness and firm
ness has mastered one of the greatest
lessons of life. He has learned how to
govern and to read.-Mornimg Star.
The greatest efforts of commu>
nifty should be directed, not to relieve
Indulgence, but to dry up it's sources, to
supply moral wants, to spread purer
principles and habits, to remove the
temptations to intemperance and sloth,
to snatch the child from moral perdi-
ton, and to make the man equal to his
own support by awakening in him the
spirit and the powers Of a man.-Lend

THOSE STAIRS.

In going up TO bed last night,
c.mbed with little cure,
And when thought I'd done the flight
There still was one more stair.
Twas late, the lights were out, and 50
Most grievously stubbed my toe.
And as I fingered, rubbing hard,
There came u soulful noise,
Uplifted from the lone backyard.
Said I: Il know the voice!
IT'S Tom-excluded hath he boon,
Ill haste and let the poor beast in.
On my way to admit the cat
At the dark kitchen door,
Thought, when I had reached the mat
That there was one stair more;
My progress the dull floor did block
My nervous system got shock!
opened to the doleful crier,
And climbing back to bed
Would you believe?-strove to get higher
When had reached the head.
Indeed, upon the top-most stair
stood with one foot in the air.
Then bethought me: ''Mrs. 3.
Won't have the cat IN nights!''
And descended speedily
To set things back to rights:
And Nov I'm safe" sweetly thought,
"This steps the husband it was not!
-Geatrude Hall, in Time.
