The Hazeton Standard tells of Il peculiar
experience two boys had in the mines, and
which should act as warning to others. The
boys are l2 years old and conceived the idea
of doing" the mines. They each procured
a miners lamp, ON sunday, and made their
way down to the bottom and proceeded
through the mammoth gangway down to-
wards the top Of the No. 10 slope. When
they got almost to that point reaching the
tunnel where there is a strong current of air
their lights were snulcd out, and being entire
strangers to the mines they became be-
wildered and knowing not whittier to go
they happily concluded to remain right where
they were. So ensconcing themselves costly
along side the steam pipes they forgot their
troubles and fell fast asleep, When the men
passed in the morning they were startled by
unexpectedly falling upon the youths. On
being awakened they gave lucid explana-
ton of the strange appamtion, They were
conducted to their fathers who in the mean
time had secured the town and the surround
ing region for miles around, filled with terror
as to what had happened them.

Since 1878 there have been nine epidemics
of dyseutary in different parts of the cOun-
try in which ChamberIain's Collie, Cholera
and Diarrhoea Remedy was used with per-
fect'success. Dyseutary, when epidemic, is
almost as severe and dangerous as Asiatic
cholera. Heretofore the best efforts of the
most skilled physicians have failed to check
its ayages, this remedy, however has cured
the most malignant cases, both of children
and adults, and under the most trying CON
ditions, which proves it to be the best medi-
cine in the world for bowel complaints. FoI

Two little boys of town made themselves
quite conspicuous on the streets last night.
One forced discordant notes from an old brass
horn and kept a dog of doubtful breed in
tow, while the other solicited aims for the
amateur musician. The harvest was not a
rich one, as most of the people knew that the
boys were out on lark.

BABIES IN AUGUST.
Anxious Mothers Dread the
Hot Summer Days.
Everything Depends Upon the Diet on
Which They Are Fed.
Lactated Food Best Supplies the Materials
for Healthy Growth.

Not only the physicians, but thousands of
modest parents who have seen their children
safely through the trying years of babyhood
and youth now know that there is no rational
excuse for cholera infantum entering any in
telligent home in the land.
Every case of diarrhGa that terminates
disastrously must be set down to culpable
inattention to baby's great need of pure,
nourishing food

The painful question that will soon be
wringiug parents hearts-'Will baby get
through the summer ?'-must be squarely
faced.
The fearful number of infant deaths every
summer from cholera infantum is due to the
ignorance of well-meaning mothers.
Improper food is now known to be the
cause of nne-tenths OF all the frghtful infant
mortality of August.
Mothers milk, when healthy and sufficient,
is the ideal infant food but when in the first
year of the baby's life recourse must be had
to another food or when the time comes for
weaving the child, lactated food by all man
ner of means should promptly be given in
reference to anything else. 1t has saved the
lives of thousands of babies.
Mothers and nurses who have used lactated
food all agree that it best supplies the
materials for baby's rapid growth and de-
velopment Lactatcd food is prepared with a
regard to purity, cleanliness and freedom
from possibility Of contagion that merits all
the praise that has been So layishly bestowed
upon it by physicians.
The nutritious parts of barley, wheat and
oats arc 50 prepared as to be easily assimi.
latcd to these are added sugar of milk and
the salts which are the basis Of mother,
milk These constituents are thoroughly
cooked at high steam heat and make d
prcdigested palatable, nutritious food, q
perfect substitute for mothers milk, fiji foi
meeting every demand of the rapidly grow
ing raild.

CHAPTER XII

Vance was true prophet. When it
came out that no persuasion, no counsel,
could win Major Overton to accept AL
len Fauntleroy's surrender, that he per-
sisted in leaving that fatal cloud on the
title, Hawkins fell first into foaming
rage, later into hard eyed, sharp edged
anger that augured i'll for whoever
might chance to be held in his power.
Yet Hawkins was not ordinarily bad
tempered. Indeed he reckoned himself
among the most generous and foTbearing
ofmankind, especially when he thought
Of Major Overton, whose secret he had
20 faithfully kept through all these
years of warfare.
To think that now the major could be

him in hard grip shook him as dog

AS Hawkins reeled down the steps
Allen turned to Major Overton.

"or at least hear my errand before you
punish it. You warned me fairly of the
risk ran in coming, but in spite of it
felt that must see you here at once

sigh, and said as though speech were
painful:

the power Of either Of us to change our
course of action"
