WHAT ARE INVITATIONS?

Every day we are called upon to
decide, when one invention, one dis
covery is made its greatest good is,
often times in opening a way for others
to see further, to select, rearrange,
perfect, and utilize the crude ideas
The French have way of saying "a
dwarf on giants shoulders can see
further than the giant himself" One
observed that the steam from the spout
of a teakettle had force, he covered the
spout, the power in the kettle lifted the
lid even with heavey weight. That
great mind conceived the idea that if
he could use that steam in sufficient
volume with apparatus that could con-
troll and regulate its power, he could
give to the world motor force that
would surpass anything known. Our
perfected steam engines of to-day are
the out growth. They are not imita-
tons. The first steam engines were
but crude ill-shaped affairs, bungling
and comparatively ineffective, wasting
much of the energy which is utilized
to-day.
We are informed that nearly quar-
ter of century ago in the vicinity of
Fox Lake Sanitarium for ladies was
kept where the treatment was similar
to Viavi. Perhaps Viavii is an imitation.
However we know that other remedies
have been found like the perfected parts
of the steam engine referred to, that
overcome the deficiencies of Viavi.
When the statement is made that one
remedy is sure cure for every one in the
neighborhood you can but put it down
rs ''snare and delusion." Many of
our readers know of the wonderful
work in our midst of Salvador remedies
One of the prominent features which
commends itself to our judgement is
the fact that they are not limited to
one formula but make it a point to
meet the conditions of every patient
by remedies suited to her case giving
the benefit meanwhile of constitutional
treatment to overcome and cure the
sympathetic complications which SO
often exist. In other words ladies have
the benefit Of personal attention from
physicians of wide experience at the
same cost others would sell a patent
medicine. We hope they may long
continue the good work so successfully
started in our town.

HIS 7Ist MILE POST.

On Tuesday July 26th Frank j.
Cameron passed from that period of
life which we of to-day term as boy
hood days, the days of careless, trifling
pleasures undisturbed by thoughts of
business and cares of home, into a new
and more mature era, the distinctive
age of manhood. Long ago, in direct
conformity with the progressive spirit
of this time, did Frank put away his
childish things" and forget his childish
ways, but not until this day could he
legally stand before all the world and
say: 81 am man." He starts out on
this new stage of life with circumstances
in his favor far above the average. With
good business education, nice home,
with kind parents who are willing and
able TO help him to success, and above
all anxious that he should reach the top.
May he ever continue in his exceptional
good fortune, and it is our least hope
that he may have a Leader whose kindly
hand may remove from his pathway all
care and trouble during the rest of bis
days. Frank we wish you good luck.
In the evening he was the victim of
a pleasant surprise, five jolly young
couples arriving at his home in Vesper
to start him out on the cheerful side of
life's road. They found him wondering
and storming because the supper was
late and his mother seemed in no hurry
to get it on the table. But on the
appearance of his young friends, frowns
quickly changed to smiles and he
understood the delay. Soon he was
seated at the table surrounded by his
guests, and a delicious meal it was,
made doubly pleasant because presided
over by Mrs. Cameron in her usual able
and pleasing manner. After supper the
floor was cleared, a violinist summoned,
and everyone danced and had a general
good time until late in the evening.
Frank received a handsome gold
watch and chain as gift from his father
and mother and next time you meet him
if you wish to see beauty" Just ask
him the time of day. And among other
things we must not forget to mention
the silk suspenders he so proudly
showed us, the gift of Miss Callie T. and
the result of her own handiwork. We
left him still admiring these presents,
which anyone could not help but do,
glad that we were fortunate enough to
be among those who attended.

ATTEMPT AT SUICIDE.
Life not worth living apparently the
cause.

Miss Annie Larke, who has been work
ing for Mr.. H. G. Stanley, in this city
surprised the family Tuesday noon with
the information that she had taken
dose of paris green and was about to die.
She took two doses neither one of which
remained in her stomach. Physicians
were Immediately called and the con-
tents of her stomach emptied by the use
of pump. Itrequired three persons to
place her under subsection she was SO
persistent in retaining what poison
remained in her stomach hoping she
might die. Those about her have been
unable to get at the cause of the rash act
and there is no apparent good reason to
be assigned. The girls parents reside at
Friendship, Adams County, this state,
who have been notified of the attempt
she made at her own life. 1t is probably
case of dependency attended by a
lack of courage. 1t is thought she will
not attempt it again.

BEAVER FALLS DRINKS OF.

Tho Water Supply so Polluted That
the Boilers Can't Raise steam.
BEAVER FALLS, PA, Oct. 2S.-Tbis city
draws 1T water supply from the Beaver
river. Along the COMPROMISING, which
empties into the Beaver, q number Of gas
and oil wells are allowed to discharge their
overflow OF salt water into the stream. The
evil has been growing worse steadily, until
at present, with the IonR-continuedd drought,
the water in the CITY service heTe is utterly
unfit for use. even for laundry purposes
At the Electric Light Company's plant and
the power houses of the street Car Com
pany, where upright tubular boilers are
used, the water foams so that steam cannot
be raised with it. The only relief that can
be had must come through heavy show rs
that will raise the rivers enough to dilute
the flow from these wells.

A man who merits his title of the human
frog is now performing at a music hall in
London. His specially is jumping and
from all accounts he is marvel at project
ing his physical body through space. The
British jumper can jump anything, though
he is not yet credited with having tried TO
Jump" his board bill.
The jumpers name lie Joseph Darby, and
before going upon the stage professionally
he had won the belt as champion jumper of
the world. just how that came about is
not clear, for there seems to be no record Of
his having competed with the best
American amateurs. However, as a jumper
Mr.. Darby is sway up in his class as well as
his leaps. and some Of the feats he is credited
with performing are truly wonderful. He
clears six chairs at bound, his only spring
off being from a brick standing end up. In
a similar way he jumps from a brick over a
chair onto a second brick, and clears a bar
5 feet high. His flying leaps include a chair
placed on table a series of eight chairs
making an obstacle 10 feet long, aud a
horse standing II hands, which he clears
with bis ankles tied The more
Sensational feats consist OF a Jump
over three chairs backwards; a jump over
chair on to the face of a man lying at its
foot, and of again, without injury TO the
man; and flying leap over water, in the
course OF which the champion Just skins the
top OF the water without wettinR more
than the soes OF his shoes. Mr.. Darby con-
cudes with "a splendid bound over 6-foot
gate studded at the top with vioious-look
