A Family of Giants.

Mrs. Margaret Larkins, who was in
TERED in st. Joachim's cemetery, Frank
ford, a few days ago, at the age of nine
ty-two years, came of an Irish family re-
marlzable for physical strength and Ion
gevity. Mrs. Larkins' maiden name was
Scannell, and her father was well-to-
do raiser Of horses in the village of Lu-
rig, County Cork. A descendant living
in Philadelphia, who has visited the old
Scannell homestead, says that the vii
layers still point with sort of clannish
pride to huge capstone which he re-
moved from the archway of imeliln
and placed in the position it at present
occupies in what was to be his future
home. After his marriage at the age of
forty Mr.. Scannen settled down to farm
ing.
The next farm to his was owned by a
cousin, whose descendants, three strap
ping daughters, now manage the dairy,
plow the fields and reap the harvest and
do whatever ditching and draining the
soil requires. The Philadelphian who
met these three ladies AYERS that their
occupation has not tended to unsex
them, and that on the way to church on
Sunday neither by dress nor demeanor
are they distinguishable from the most
blue blooded of their countrywomen.
The Scannell family has been prolific in
giants. One of the brothers of the de-
ceased lady still lives in Ireland and is of
extraordinary stature. A cousin residing
in this city stands #. 81 in. in his
socks, and another #. 81 in. An uncle,
Michael Scannell, was the parish priest
at Tarsed and attained great age A
nephew some years ago won wager by
lifting from the ground barrel of
white lead weighing several hundred
pounds. - Philadelphia Press.

GROUP.
Some Reading That Will Prove Inter-
esting to Young Mothers-How to
Guard Against the Disease.

Group is the terror of young mothers,
especially during the winter months, as
it is then most prevalent. To post
them concerning the cause, first symp-
toms, treatment and how to prevent it,
is the object of this article.
The origin of Group is common cold.
Children are subject to taking cold very
easily, and Group is almost sure to fol-
low. The first symptom of Group is
hoarseness; it is peculiar hoarseness,
easily recognized and once heard al
ways remembered. Usually day or
two before the attack the child becomes
hoarse, and gradually shows symptoms
of having taken cold, and this is where
the mistake is usually made. The
mother thinking her child has just
taken cold gives it no especial attention
until awakened in the night by the vio-
lent coughing of the child, finds it has
the Group, and remembers it has had
cold or been hoarse for day or two.
Such circumstances often occur, and in
many cases the mother has nothing in
the house that will relieve it. and may
be several miles from physician or
drug store. You can we'll imagine the
situation and her distress. The time to
act is when the child first becomes
hoarse or shows symptoms OF having
taken cold; If Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy is freely given from that time
on, all tendency to Group will disappear
and all danger be avoided. The remedy
prevents fully ten thousand cases Of
Group every year. 1t is the main reli-
ance with many mothers throughout
the Western States and Territories they
have learned its value and how to use it,
and in those families Group is seldom
known because it is always prevented.

All in One Day.

George Tolbert, young herder en-
ployed by Durnel & Spencer, rode into
Mojave recently to have tooth pulled,
and on his return his horse threw him
and, becoming frightened, kicked him
into insensibility. When he gained con-
sciousness he found that matches carried
in his pocket had become lighted, setting
fire to his clothing and severely burning
one foot. Being unable to walk, it is
said hecrawled on his hands and knees
ten miles to reach assistance. He was
brought from Mojave to Tehachapi for
medical treatment. 1t is thought am
putation of the foot will be necessary

De printed at tho head of the Republican
ticket, this device to be tho American
eagle.
The lack of attention shown Senator
sherman and the ovatlons constantly
showcrcd upon eX-Gov. Foraker arc
matters OF constant remark by all here.
sherman walked unattended along into
the Neil House and registered, passing
almost unnoticcd to the elevator to his
loom. but when Foraker arrived he
could scarcely make his way into the
hotel, and two speeches were pressed
from him before he was able to reach
the clerks desk.
Foraker's speech to-day nominating
Mckinley was the feature of the con.
vention. Sherman did not deliver his
long prepared speech which had been
furnished the newspapers, but when
called upon made only few remarks.
Aside from this and the short plank of
the platform indorsing his services in
the Senate, tho senior Senator from
Ohio has cut Il very small figure in the
convention so far. In an interview he
denies that there is any trouble between
his friends and Ex-Governor Foraker.
and says he is Receiving all the honors
OF the convention that he could expect.
