A Pointer.

AS every reader of this paper knows, It
has become one of the fine arts to write at
tractive and interesting advertisements
especially medical ones.
Now it seems to Us that if, for instance.
the worldwide advertisers of Warmers
Safe Remedies would adopt style where
by they could work in a startling story OF,
say-wolves, we believe the immense sales
of their medicines could be still more large
ly increased. We give them the benefit Of
the idea at any event. Let 1t commence
like this:
Patter! Patterl Patterl
There it is again. 1t is not fifty yards
from where he last halted. The steps are
too light for those of an Indian. A grizzly
would rush upon its victim with roar OF
defiance and anger. A panther would hurl
himself through thirty feet OF space, with
scream to unnerve the hardest hunter.
"Wolves,n whispers the hunter, as howl
suddenly bursts upon his ear.
Wolves! the gaunt grizzly wolves OF the
foot-hills-thin and poor and hungry and
savage-the legs tireless-the mouth full OF
teeth which can crack the shoulder bone
Of buffalo. He can see their dark forms
fitting from point to point-the patter OF
their feet upon the parched grass proves
that he is surrounded-yet no more in dan
ger, and no more effectually surrounded
than he who trifles with the symptoms OF
kidney disease. And you, reader, know
whether or not you are victim to its in
Eidious encroachment If your back aches,
if your eyesight is failing, if your appetite
is tickle, if your urine is not clear and of a
pale straw color, do not hesitate or the
prairie of danger, bat fee to the nearest
haven of safety, and resort to the only
known cure for kidney and liver troubles,
Warmers Safe Cure. 1t is duty you owe,
not only to yourself but to your family and
society at large.
Delays are dangerous.
Had the traveller not been overtaken In
the night, and unarmed, the wolves would
have had no terrors for him. We warn
you just now, in broad daylight, before the
wolves Of disea e sink their poisoned fangs
deeply into your flesh and the night of
death settles down upon you, to stop your
ears to prejudice and bigotry, and to fly to
'afety through the means we have pointed
ut.

No Chemicals.

IN THESE DAYS when food edulteration is
30 common, it is a comfort to find an article
for the table that is thoroughly reliable.
Walter Baker & Co.'s breakfast cocoa is
eminent IN this limited class. No chemicals
are used N its manufacture and it is abso-
,utely pure. 1t forms moreover delicious
and hea!thful drink, as refreshing, and more
nutritious, than tea or coffee, and free from
the injurious effects that those beverage
sometimes produce. And 1t is very cheap
wthal. The house of Walter Baker & Co.
has maintained for more than 100 years q
great and honored repute by the excellence
and purity of it's manufactures.

An Honest Statement

In endeavoring to give to their preparation

fulness, the proprietors of NHagee's E.nul-

popular favor, nor are they attempting to at
tract public attention to any mysterious COM
pound or doubtful decoction of dangerous
drugs and chemicals.
II has been on the market long enough to
prove its rare merits to the satisfaction of the
thousands who have been benefited by its use,
and whose restored health and happy lives
bear living testimony to the power and virtue
of this excellent preparation.
1t has stood tho most severe tests of the
medical profession, and the fact that no other
preparation on the market has been so freely
prescribed BY doctors in their regular practice,
is conclusive evidence that this has been the
most efficacious in all wasting diseases, such

Twelve Hundred Dollars sewed Up in n

WmKEsBARRE, PA, March 25.-John
Morris, an Austrian residing In the
eastern part of thii city, was sane man
until yesterday. Now no is as crazy as a
loon, and all on account Of the loss Of the
savings of life-tim The Austrian did
not believe in the safety Of banking insti-
tutioDs, so he made bank out OF his wife's
undergarments. The woman carried the
money around with her in day time, and at
night deposited the undergarment under
her pillow. On Saturday night, when she
went to bed, she put the petticont initi us
ual place. When about DOING away into
sleep she was suddenly aroused by three
masked men, who gagged her, stole the
petticoat and made their escape. AT the
time the robbery was committed the bus-
band was not at home. He had been in
vited cut to a neighbor's house to play
cards. Morris says there was conspir-
acy entered into by some of the neigh
bors to get him from home and then rot
his wife. VIM. Standish, neighbor, hai
been arrested and held in 1000 bail, and
Mrs Morris identified him as one Of the
men who entered her room Staudi ish, on the
other hand, has Eve neighbors who swear
he was nt homs at the time the robbery
was committed. There was 81 200 sewed
up In her garment.

SOME QUEER BUGS.
The Egyptian scarabaeus, Death Watches
and Earwigs.


As is well-known, the scarb@us or
beetle was worshiped By the ancient
Egyptians and was considered sacred to
various deities. 1t was represented on
monuments, in hieroglyphic writing and
engraved on royal escutcheons Earth
ern images OF 1t as well as OF other an
imal forms, were entombed along with
mummies to keep evil spirits from the
dead Its figure was cut in gems and
worn in jewelry as talisman to keep
the wearer from harm. The insect
was embalmed after death and given
honorable burial. Engrayen on the
emerald the scarabaus was q remedy
against witchcraft and headache, and
quite likely also to bring its possessor
into favor with the king.
1t is not surprising to find that the
curious insect known as the firehy has
been regarded with superstitious awe
by various savage tribes. The natives
OF West India and other warm coun-
tries, however, are said to put the flies
to "a very practical use. They cap
ture them in large numbers, ana
putting them in cages Of wire
twenty or thirty together, keep them
alive by feeding them and using them
at night to light their houses and save
candles If the light grows dim the
insects are wet and their cage shaken
up, causing them to shine brightly
again. The ladies pin large numbers
OF these creatures, alive, to ballroom
dresses and wear them as ornaments.
The little insect known as the death
watch is very common pest oil IL
braries and frequently perforates largo
volumes with straight, tiny holes. Its
presence in a house is supposed to por-
tend an early death to some OF the in
mates. Watchers by sick-beds and suf-
fering patients have been so terrified
by the uncanny ticking sound, heard
in the silence OF the night, that nothing
could convince them that the death
angel was not almost in their presence.
II there were anything in the supersti'
ton, those whose dwellings are old
would lead but brief and uncomfortable
lives. for it is frequently the case dur
ing the summer time that the noise OF
this insect can be heard atalmost any
hour OF the day and night in all parts
OF the house.
The earwig, small winged insect
commonly found in moist earth and
damp places in England, is another
harmless creature which has got hard
name through no fault Of its own. Al
: though there is no authentic cases on
record OF this insect injuring any hui
man being, there is widespread popu-
lar belief that it only watches for an
opportunity to creep into the ear OF a
sleeping person, destroy his hearing
{ and drive him to madness, If not to
death. In America the animal known
as the earwig is a creeping, crawling,
+ many-legged worm, called by scientists
: a '.myriadodous crustacean," name
= which is fully as long and as ugly as
/. any specimen of the earwig tribe.
J. Thousands of people believe that this
/, animal also has habit OF investigating
+ the anatomy of the human ear, though
e those who profess to know say he is
a perfectly innocent OF any thing OF the
: kind. Boston Herald.

shrewd Advertisers.


Readers of the newspapers OF the day
cannot fail to be impressed with the fact
that the modern advertiser is progressive
He is compelled tosbe, else competitors
more active in the invention Of new adver-
tising devices, will outstrip him in public
favor.
The value of printers ink judiciously
and scientifically employed cannot be over
estimated; it is the medium whereby
meritorious discovery is raised from local
fame to position in the public esteem.
Hence the columns of the newspapers are
daily used by hosts of advertisers and in
the competition which is indulged in TO at
tain the desired end, the reader is OFTEN
times amused
The greatest of American advertisers,
and it may as well be said in the world, Is
H. II. Warner, of Rochester, N. Y, whose
name has been made everywhere familiar
in connection with Warmers Safe Cure,
widely advertised because Of its merit in
the prevention and cure of kidney diseases.
BY printers ink this great discovery mas
achieved worldwide popularity and thou
sands feel grateful for the knowledge thus
acquired of this greatest of modern RENE
dies.
Furthermore, the public has been taught
that disorders of the lungs, brain, heart and
liver which have hitherto been regarded
and treated by the profession as distinctive
diseases are not SO in fact, but are the at
tending symptoms of disease OF the kid
news; therefore, the consumptive, tha apo
plectic, the paralytic, and the sufferer
from nervous disorders can be restored to
health by Warmers Safe Cure, which will
remove the true cause OF those disorders
by restoring the kidneys to healthy action.
The advertising methods employed by
this greatest Of advertisers are invariably
instructive and, although the reader may
sometimes be 'caughtn in reading an ad
vertisement, which was not at first supposed
to be such, there is nevertheless no time
lost since useful information is invariably
gained concerning life's great problem.
