A Good Man Needed.

There is no public office in Schuylkill
county that requires the attention of the
people more than that of the Shrievalty.
1t is the Office which deals more directly
with the business people than any other,
and owing to the nature of these dealings
it is essential that the Sheriff shall be a
man of undoubted intelligence, ability,
business capacity and integrity. And
such a man is now before the people in
the person of Alexander Scott, a man
whose reputation in the business circles
of this county has been sustained for
years without faint. Mr., Scott is also
one of the best known men in the county
and is exceedingly popular in all circles
In private life he is quiet, gentlemanly
and courteous; in business circles he is
industrious, deliberate, conscientious,
painstaking and just, and in controlling
the affairs of the Shrievalty would ad-
minister them in a manner second to no
administration since the Office has been
in existence. A vote for Alexander Scott
will be directly in line with good govern.

An Enxltsh ..,ynser Witch. ,,

A young man of the name of Rodwell, in the employ of the Grinton Coal com pany in north England, has shown wen derful powers in his occupation as pro- fessional "water finder' or "water witch" Professor E. R. Lankester, the great English scientist, stated very plain- ly in ono of the journals that he doubted the attributed powers of either the witch or the ''divining rod," with which he is armed in all professional operations. This evoked the following from Dr. Mcclure, the chairman of the Grinton company: 1T deny emphatically that the lad is an imposteri He has been tested time and again and has never failed to locate veins of either mineral or water, depending upon what the search was being conducted for. The 'divining rod which he holds only moves in obedi- ence to the muscular contractions of his hands and arms, and he can use rod og any kind of wood or material, providing 1t be what is known as good conductor of electricity Another oddity about the lad, and one of which I have never heard in connection with water witching., ia this: The lad habitually walks with his hands clasped behind him, and as soon as he steps upon the ground directly ovex a mineral or water he is powerless to uss- clasp them until he moves away from the region of tke lode or conduit.

Linoleurn In tho Kitchen.

An authority on such matters recom- mends thin quality of linolenm to be used as dado for the walls in kitchen. It should be glued close to the wall, and may be finished at the top with plain holding. It may then be oiled or var nished, or left in it's natural condition, as one chooses. It is in every way to be preferred to 8 dado of wood, which is liable to crack and leave interstices in which insects may lodge. The dado of linoleum is as easily washed as a dado of tiling, and is even more durable, while 1t is q good deal cheaper.
 In the natural wood color in which this material comes, it would make a very pretty dado for wall painted pale blue. As inoleum is nothing more than the blown pulp of wood, combined with oxidized inseed oil, it can be readily seen that it can be treated in any way that wood can be treated. while 1t Is exactly suited to this purpose and the purpose of covering kitchen floors. A dado Is almost a necessity in 8 kitchen, because . plastered wall gets clipped with continual wear. Linoleum offers just the right material necessary for such protection.

THAT the grip is contagious is no longer regarded ss a question by the medical fra ternity, and this general professional agreement on that important point should be thoughtfully considered by everybody. The malady, where it does not prove fatal, save in very few cases. leaves behind it re- suits which, as the experience of its for mer prevalence has so painfully demon strated, have been of the most painful and not infrequently of long enduring and sometimes fatal character. It is asserted by those who have given the scourge close attention that when the weather is dry, mild and sunshiny, it reveals itself most frequently and in its most aggravated forms, condition largely due to the fact that in such favorable weather many are tempted to expose themselves more than when the temperature is much lower. This means that everybody should avoid ex- posture, and it is further advised that as the disease is largely prevalent and more over contagious. overheated and crowded public places. where there are sure to be some grip patients, should be summed as much as possible. Among other precau- tions, the use of moderate doses of quinine regularly taken morning and evening is recommended for warding of the malady or in modifying its severity.
