HALF A MINUTE, PLEASE.

Though you were 3 Jay Gould or =
Vanderbilt, it is worth thirty seconds of
your time to learn that "Ideal" Tooth
Powder will preserve your teeth from
decay, and by so doing save dentists
bills and hours of agony from your old
enemy, the toothache. DIR. r. +. Gieb-
ner, Pa, says: "When 1 first began
using "Ideal" Tooth Powder could
not use brush on my teeth on account
of injuring the gums. Can now use as
stiff brush as obtainable with impun-
ity. 1t has also hardened the enamel of
my teeth.

The Sight Killed Her.

Mrs. Adam Kohler had been enter
tanning some visitors on Friday at her
home in Minersville and soon after they
went off there was knock at the door.
Thinking one had forgotten something,
she responded and saw miner in his
working clothes. Not word was spoken,
but Mrs. Kohler fell over in dead faint
from which she had hardly been aroused
when the stretcher on which lay her
husbands dead body was carried in.
Mr.. Kohler had been killed by fall of
coal at Billy Best colliery. He had four
little children, one of them babe of but
few months. The sight of the man in
his working clothes told Mrs. Kohler the
full meaning of his visit.

out the fire, which was confined to thirty
two bales of cotton. The damage will not
exceed $3.50.
At 3:45 o'clock another alarm was sent in
