IT MAKES PEOPLE WELL.

Best Spring Remedy in the World
Paine's Celery Compound.
There is one true specific for diseases
arising from debilitated nervous sys-
TEN, and that is Paine's celery COM
pound, so generally prescribed by ply
sicians. 1t is probably the most re-
markable remedy that the scientific
research of this country has produced.
Prof Edward E. Phelps, NJ. D., LII. D.,
of Dartmouth College first prescribed
what is now known the world over as
Paine's celery compound, positive cure
for dyspepsia, biliousness, liver COM
plant, neuralgia, rheumatism, all nervous
diseases and kidney troubles. For the
latter Paine's celery compound has sue
ceeded again and again where everything
else has failed.
The medical journals of this country
have given more space in the last few
years to the many remarkable cases
where the use of Paine's celery compound
has made people well, than to any other
one subject

LIFE IN SAMOA.

From a private letter from Miss
Ide we take the following extracts
1--WE are now settled in our new home
and are having a delightful time. The
climate is perfectly delightful, the ther-
mometer seldom below 6O0 or above 500
and the evenings are charming. In an
other month we expect to be in our new
house which is being built in a
beautiful spot called the Motootua
Gardens, which is at the top of a hill
sloping down to the ocean. Flowers
and fruit grow all about, and it is called
the loveliest place in all Samoa.
Last week Herr Beckmann, the head
of the great German firm here, took us in
boat rowed by a crew of black boys to
Vaitele, the great plantation covering
about 10000 acres of land. There
horses were waiting for us and we had a
fine horseback ride for miles along
smooth roads with hedges of flowers on
either side of the road. A ten course
dinner was awaiting US and a sail home
by moonlight with a torchlight process
sion to lead off, of 100 black boys.

GAME BIRDS IN VERMONT.

The Vermont Fish and Game
League deserve every encourage
ment in their attempts to stock the
Vermont forests with game. Con-
corning some of the varieties which
they purpose to raise here a Spring
field, Mass. subscriber writes as
zone who knows" as follows:
81 think you could raise Black Game
and Capercailzie all right about st.
Johnsbury. Sharp-tailed grouse are a
very hardy bird, but they want the
prairie They will not stay long in
woodland We had a lot of experience
here about Springfield with them and
with the pinnated grouse and the COM
mon Virginia quail. Hundreds Of pairs
of quail in the last few years have been
turned out loose here and cared for only
to have them all wiped out by an extra
hard winter. Ice storms kill them very
quickly. Our winters are much n1lder
than yours, as we are 200 miles further
south. What will quail do in northern or
even southern Vermont? 1t IS money
wasted to get them. Our sharp-talled
and pinnated grouse were seen about
here "a few of them for about year
and then disappeared as if they had been
swallowed. we kept track of the
markets and only few pairs were re-
ported as brought in. They turned out
about so pairs of grouse in Forest Park
and in the neighboring country about
sos pair more. They cannot be shot in
Forest Park and the hope was that they
would multiply and spread over the sur
rounding country. Up to date they
have not materialized. They were fed
regularly while in the park. We do not
seem to have the right food for them in
the East. Ifruffed grouse will not live
or stay on the prairie, it is fair to reason
that the prairie grouse will not live in
the woods or where woodland predomi-
mates.
The Chinese and English pheasant
would be good bird to try. Keep a
few pairs to lay eggs and then raise
them under the care of a common hen.
1t is cheaper and surer They are q fine
game bird and afford rare sport

this question has been that some Of our
western friends would not receive any

that we could not coin 1t freely and main

Widen the Fire Limits,

prevented the terrible experience that
yesterday befell Mr., and Mrs. Philip
Schneider at 1884 Stafford avenue, in
the wiping out Of their home by flames
and the loss Of their three children,
this latest blaze renews attention to
the need OF more modern municipal
legislation with reference TO frame
buildings. A life is just as precious at
the lower extremity of this Nineteenth
ward as it is in the crowded heart Of
the central city; and If there Is any de-
vice Of law which can tend to prevent
similar fatalities in the future the sub
jectshould receive attention withoutde-

BURGESS NIcH, LIS. of Pottsville, has
been having an experience with the
cowboy evangelist Rice. which is
similar to that had by the municipal
authorities Of Scranton. Ths same
tactics were pursued bv Mr. and Mrs
Rice in Pottsvills that marked their
local sojourn; the only difference being
that when the borough police ordered
them to quit blockading the streets
without a permit from the burgess
they appealed to the audience and tho
policemen were prevented from max =
ing an arrest. The incident confirms
the conclusion of most Scrantonians
that these evsngelists are more intent
on acquiring free advertising than they
are on spreading the trde Gospel,
