Hundreds Swept Down the Flood.
PITTECURG, June 1T was stated
at the office of the Pennsylvania rail-
road at an early hour this morning
that the deaths would run up into the
thousands rather than the hundreds,
as was as first supposed. Private dis
patches say the stream of human be
ings swept before the angry floods
was something most pitiful to behold,
men, women and children were carried
along, so fran tically shrieking for
help but their cries awaited nothing,
rescue was impossible. 1t Is now
stated that the dam was known to
have been weak, and that general
fears had been expressed concerning
its safety.
The people had been warned to
leave for several hours before the
wash came, but in vain.

Cancer can be Cured

DR.. r. C. Black, of Georgia, is in the city
on a visit. He has devoted the, last six
years of his life to curing cancers alone, and
during that time has not failed to cure
single case. He came in possession of a
remedy from experiments made on a very
bad case, which killed the cancer in forty
eight hours, and in ten days time the whole
thing was removed and the affected parts
began to heal rapidly and was soon well, no
signs of it ever having returned.
He has cured hundreds of cases within
the last six years, and wants the public to
understand that he treats nothing but can
GERS. The doctor makes no charge until
the patient is dischaTged-cu He will
remain in San Antonio, Texas, several
months. Consultation free, at 40 Pre"a
street or at 4O2 East Houston
street. DIR. Black is 4 graduate of
the Medical University of Pennsylvania, at
Philadelphia and has practiced over thirty
years.

The transition from long, linger-
ing and painful sickness to robust
health marks an epoch in the life Of
the individual. Such remarkable
event is treasured in the memory

health is attained is gratefully
blessed. Hence it is that so much is
heard in praise of Electric Bitters.
So many feel they owe their restora-
ton to health, to the use of the Great
Alternative and Tonic. If you are
troubled with any disease of Kidneys,

A Simple Test for Fresh Eggs.

This method is based upon the de-
crease in the density of eggs as they
grow old. Dissolve two ounces of
kitchen salt, says the account, in a
pint of water. When a fresh-laid
egg is placed in this solution 1t will
decend to the bottom of the vessel,
while one that has been laid on the
day previous will not quite reach the
bottom. If the egg be three days
old it Will swim in the liquid If it is
more than three days old 1t will float
on the surface, and project above
the latter more and more as 1T is old

ding her head so that the golden.
brown hair on her forehead danced
coquettishly up and down-''yes,
am pretty, but don't think 1 am
sufficiently beautiful to send all the
young men of my acquaintance into
ecstacies over me, and yet l know
am pretty"
And as she gazed composedly into
the depths of her mirror, she took
from her belt withered white rose,
and bunch of faded pink hyaclnths
and then arched her pretty eyebrows
over them In a puzzIing fashion.
"Philip Marion gave me the
roses," she soliloqulzed. "Philip is
very handsome fellow, and 1 al
ways did have weakness for hand
some fellows; and besides, they say
he is rising young man in his pro-
fession. Well, 1 like talented law
yers, too, so L will keep the roses o
little while. And here are Max
Hubert's hyacinths-poor, silent,
awkward Max! And yet there is
something about him that won't let
you dispise him. He certainly is
not handsome, and yet his face re-
minds you of one of those marble
creations one sees in the Academy of
Designs. Well, 1 won't throw the
hyacinths away, either-at any rate

A few days before Grandma Car

forth that she was not feeling we'll

some she did not know what TO do
with herself, and begging one of her
three grand-daughters to come down
and stay with her awhile.
And Louise had astonished the
whole famile by volunteering to go.
"MY dear child" Mrs. Raymond
had said, "you don't know what you
are undertaking. It's common

"And the old lady is as full OF

The scene was indescribably beau
tiful to Louise Raymond that frosty
winter night, as the jolting, lum-
bering old wagon, with a buffalo
robe thrown over the seat and the
sleepy old horses trotting along in
front, came into the turn of the
road from which she could see the
ancient farm house, brown, with a
half century of ruins and rains, while
the brown, wooded hills rose. up on
every side, and one ruddy beam of
light glanced from the windows un-
der the caves of the old house, max
ing very beautiful the brightness
across the road in front of the door.

who had been sent to the depot to
meet Mrs Carlisle's anddaughter,
"but she's expecting you'll come,
lonesome or lively"
"Lonesome!' cried Louise, glee-
fully, as she sprang out upon the
snowy ground. "Why, / think it is
splendid.
And she entered the CHEEKY kitch-
en-, all aglow with a roaring fire of
pine logs on the hearth.
Grandma Carlisle had evidently
expected her, and as evidently
bestirred herself for the occasion,
for the table was spread with hot
short-cake, baked apples fairly
smothering in rich, yellow cream,
ounce jelly and homemade cottage
cheese; while the old lady, herself,
in fresh cap and ribbons, came for
ward on her crutches to welcome her
granddaughter.
"Why, my DEAR" she cried, taxi

laughing. "Oh, grandma, what a

Oh, how good everything does smell

And before Louise Raymond
slept that night she had taken Grand
ma Carlisle's heart by storm.
She had been an inmate of the
farm house for few days when
storm came on, which made the old
lady's rheumatism grow so much
worse that she was obliged to keep
her room; but Louise went about as

POOR PEOPLES CHANCES.

Some years ago a city missionary
was crossing one of the parks in New
York on the Sabbath day and said ia
q lad, "What are you doing here,
breaking the Lerd's day7 You ought
to be At Church and worshipping
God instead of breaking the Sabbath
in this way" The poor lad in his
rags looked up at the city missionary
and said: "Oh, sir, it's very easy for
you to talk that way, but God knows
that we poor chaps amt got no
chance"
The sentiment seems to be growing
that in the United States the time has
arrived when "ths POOR chap don't
have no chance"
There 10 some truth in 10. The poor
are not shut out from making liveli.
hood, but the gulf between riches and
poverty continually grows more diff
cult to cross. A the country becomes
densely populated keen business com
petition decreases the chances for
accum ulating wealth by ordinary busi'
ness methods. 1.
But the same conditions vastly i'm.
prove the chances for great success
to those who can sifike out in new
paths, can furnish something TO the
world that others cannot.
True merit, in commodity or ability,
will win easily and with grand results
in this country, if the masses can be
induced to recognize it. This srecogni-
ton can only be accomplished by
what are sometimes sneeringly a.
luded to as advertising methods.
What a marvellous success has at
tended the thorough introduction to
the world of the merits of that wonder

ner's Safe Cure. Hon. III. IL. Warner

power by being restored to health

fatal kidney trouble. He concluded

the ten years since he began its

dollars in advertising the Safe Cure
His methods have oeen ingenious
sometimes, perhaps, open TO critl'
cism, but they had purpose, which
has been accomplished.
But mark he never would have
secured four fold return OF the vast
sums thus expended If the real merit
OF the remedy had not been fully
proven to the millions OF people
reached by his advertisements.

AFAMOUS BATTLE-GROUND.

On the banks of the Tippecanoe, q
small stream which enters the Wa
hash River in Indiana, was fought the
terrific battle OF Tippecanoe.
In this great struggle Of frontier
times, the allied western Indians un-
der the hio'tainship Of Elsk watawa,
the "Prophet" were defested in No
vember, 1911, by the Americans un-
der the command Of Gen. VIM. II.
Harrison.
1t was desperate, hard-fought
battle, and much depended upon the
result.
Had the Indians been successful,
all barriers of defence for the early
settlers W uld have been ovf thrown
and the eadly tomahawk W pad have
been active in the rapid e;eermina-
ton OF the remaining pionSsrs. On
the other hand the fortnnat termin-
alton OF the contest put an d to fur
ther attempts at open warfa}e by the
Indians. The rich territory, 30 long
overrun by hostile savages, was
thrown open for settlement, which
rapldly occurred as soon as the news
of the great victory becan. wide
spread. :,
Naturally great praise was rendered
to the success and intrepid bravery
of Gen. Harrison and he was honored
in many ways. He afterwards served
as Commander OF the Army OF the
Northwest, and when Indiana was ad.
mitted to Statehood, he was selected
to represent the State in the United
States Senate. In 1840 he was elected
President and his unfortunate demise
occurred shortly after being inaugu-
rated.
The forty second anniversary OF the
Battle of Tippecanoe found the gal
liant grandson of "Old Tip" leading
his forces TO a great political victory
which resulted in the selection Of Gen.
Ben. Harrison a. President OF the
United States.
The Harrisons have been . hardy
race Of men, sprung from old log
cabin stock, which Is a sufficient
guarantee of its genuineness wherever
found. Realizing the truth OF this,
great effort has been made to re-dis-
cover some OF the secrets contained
in the old log cabin stock OF useful
articles, and as the result, the famous
Old Log Cabin Sarsaparilla, uiiver-
sally regarded as the best Spring
ionic and blood cleanser has been
iound. Not satisfied with the world
aide esteem which is held for War
ler's Sale Cure, the only cure for
Kidney diseases, the proprietor Is
willing to do all that is possible TO es-
ablish Warmers Log Cabin sarsap-
lriila as foremost among household
.rtieles on account of i,s purity and
Effectiveness.
Alter all, each individual has, at all
time-~Lhe grea. battle oi life or death

are as a rule, possessed of happy disposi-

come soured and irritable, in consequence
of the long train of distressing features
