PITTsBURG, PA, Jan. AT 1880
p. m. today during a heavy storm of
wind.and rain new four-story build
ing on Diamond street near Wood
and in the rear Of Reabson and j. II.
Weildin IL Co., on Wood street fell
with crash that was heard for many
squares. The force of the falling
building was so great that the rear

been made Of paper, and their front
walls fell upon the pavement on
Wood street burying several people
in the debris and mangling some

WASHINGTON, Jan. 9.-Dispatches
from various points in Pennsylvania
indicate that tOday's storm traversed
the state through the center from
West to East, doing the greatest
damage, so far rs known at Reading,
Sunbury and Pittsburg. AT Harris
burg the signal service instruments
recorded the velocity of the wind at
seventy-fve miles an hour. The
thermometer was then blown away.
The roof was blown off the public
school building and Il panic ensued
among 400 or 800 children, in which
many little ones were badly trampled
and crushed, but none killed.
Much damage to property was done
in Harrisburg and vicinity and many
people injured ON the streets, but no
fatalities so far as known.
At Carlisle the government training
school for Indians and several private
buildings were unroofed.

There is only one way to cure deafness,

Deafness is caused by an intlamed con-
dition of the mucus lining of the Gus

A Healthful Morning Glass.

Various opinions are held as to the
healthfulness of drinking water in the
morning before eating. DIR. Leuf, a
German scientist, says: When water
is taken into the full or partly full
stomach it does not mingle with the
food, as we are generally taught, but
passes along quickly between the food
and the lesser curvature toward the
pylorus, through which it passes into
the intestine. The secretion of mucns
by the lining membrane is constant,
and during the night a considerable
amount accumulates in the stomach;
some of its liquid portion is absorbed,
and that which remains is thick and
tenacious. If food is taken into the
stomach when in this condition it be-
comes coated with this mucus, and the
secretion of the gastric juice and its ac-
ton are delayed. These facts show
the value of a goblet of water before
breakfast. This washes out the tena-
cious mucus and stimulates the gastric
glands to secretion. In old or feeble
persons water should not be taken cold,
but it may be with great advantage
then taken warm or hot. This removal
of the accumulated mucus from the
stomach is probably one of the reasons
why taking soup at the beginning of a
meal has always been found so bene-

Sunshine at Home.

1t is doubtful whether the male head

at home or comprehends how much of

Summer Complexion.

To be fashionable in these DAYS it is
necessary to be healthy, and the pale,
delicate girl that has reigned for so
many years must give place to her
more robust sister. The complexion
most admired is the one having the
most healthful glow, and in no other
way can this be obtained than by fire.
quent physical exercise in the open air.
Indeed, many girls when away for the
summer almost live in the open air, re-
turning in the fall with compilations
the envy of more conservative maids,
who are afraid of the least bit of sun.
The sun is wonderful beautifier of
the complexion, but, like many good
tonics, ought not to be taken in too
large doses at first. Some fair-skinned
people are prevented from enjoying
the country, owing to getting so easily
sunburned. When going out into the
sun apply baby-powder thickly over the
face and neck, and there is little danger
of your suffering from this painful af-
lection. The powder protects the pores
of the skin, which are generally very
sensitive to the sun. If the powder is
not convenient, cornstarch or flour
will answer the same purpose. When
going out on the water sailing or fish
ing powdering the face will save much
pain and annoyance, for there are few
places in which a person, burns so
quickly as on the water. When sun
burned battle the afflicted parts in
cream, but, if obtainable, buttermilk is
much more cooling and healing. Tan
can be removed by applying lemon
juice to the face Just before retiring
for the night, letting it remain over
night, and washing it off with soft
warm water in the morning. A few
drops of the spirits of camphor in the
wash water two or three times a week
will help to keep the skin clear a
good wash for the skin during the sum-
mer is made as follows: To one quart
of rose water add, drop by drop, stir
ring all the time, one ounce of tincture
of benzoin. Remember that it is ben
zoin, and not benzine. Bottle for use.
Add few drops of this to the wash
water each day, until the water is like
skim-milk, and the skin may be kept
soft and nice, even though you are out
in all sorts of weather. To protect the
backs of the hands, which are generally
the first to freckle or tan, take your old
lisle-thread gloves that are worn in the
fingers, cut off the tops, turn and hem
on the inside each finger. These can
be worn in the fields, and are more
comfortable than the whole gloves, be-
sides protecting the hands.

Mutual COnfldences...Mutual Friends.

Said Miss Malvina Trotter
To her neghbor, Mrs Potter,
Together sitting on the porch
One pleasant summer day,
There's quite a startling story
About young Mrs. Corey
Don't tell that repeated it
Or that's what people say.
They quarreled with each other
over one thing and another
Till her husband threw a cup of tea
Full in her face one day
And vowing she would grieve him,
She now declares she'll leave him.
Intends to sue for divorce
Or that's what people say"
" DO tell" cried Mrs. Potter.
" But I'm not surprised, Miss Trotter,
I've thought they weren't quite happy
Now don't you breathe a word
From me, but Deacon Draskitt
Stole a neighbours bushel-basket,
And sold 1t for a quarter
or that is what I've heard.
." And his wife she is 20 cruel
To that poor Pepita Buell.
Whom she took from out the orphans home
1t actually occurred
That she called her lazy sinner,
Made her go without her dinner,
And whipped her, whipped her dreadfully-
OR that's what have heard"
Thus Miss Malvina Trotter
And her neighbor, Mrs. Potter,
That livelong summer afternoon
With converse sweet beguiled,
Till, no matter what their station,
Not a shred of reputation
Was left in all that goodly town
To woman, man or child.
Dear me" mused Mrs Potter,
When Miss Malvna Trotter,
with many a lingering last goodnight"
Had homeward turned her way,
It's positively inhuman
For any decent woman
To be forever talking about
What people say"
Thought Miss Malvina Trotter,
As she left the house of Potter,
" It's sad how many dreadful things
Have in this town occurred;
But worse than all together
1t puts in such high feather
That gossip, Mrs. Potter,
To tell what she has heard" -lndependent
