CITY Election,

The city election passed off very
quietly, but forty-four voters taking
interest enough to come out. The
ladies' must have overlooked the date
as not one exercised her right Of
franchise. The council last night
met as a canvassing board, and at the
close Of the session the newly elected
officers we're sworn in. 1t IS the in
tention of the new council to follow
as closely as possible the plan Of last
year, and keep expenses down to the
very lowest figure.

AT the last meeting of the teach
ers of the county Mr.. O. A. Lewis OF
this city delivered an address in which
he urged less a study of that which is
dead and gone, but more of the pres
ent and future, and favored a regard
for constituted authority. This talk
was IN the line of Current Events"
and seems to us the line upon which
our schools should be conducted.
Teach the children the history of the
past only so far as it is needed in
causing them to understand that of
the present, and inculcate in their
minds due observance of all law not
that law is always right but because
it is law, will make foundation upon
which to build American citizens.

ACCIDENTAL DEATHS.
Caused by Carelessness.

The majority of people die sooner than
they should. Evidence of this fact is grow.
ing daily. Waring says: "Disease is not a
consequence of life; it is due to unnatural
conditions of living neglect, abuse. want"
DR.. Stephen Smith, on the same subject,
" Man Is born to health and long life; dis
ease Is unnatural, death, except from old
age, is accidental, and both are preventabIe
by human agencies" This is almost invari-
ably true Of death. resulting from heart dis
ease. Careless over-exertion, Incorporate
use Of tea, coffee, tobacco, alcoholic or other
stimulants are generally the causes of this
difficulty, and indifference to its progress re-
suits in sudden death, or long sickness end
ing in death. Py the newspapers it can be
seen that many prominent and hundreds Of
persons in private life die from heart dis
ease every day.
If you have any of the following symp.
toms: shortness of breath, palpitation, irreg.
ular pulse, fainting and smothering spells,
pain in shoulder, side, or arm, swollen
ankles, etc, begin treatment Immediately for
heart disease. lfyou delay, the consequences
may be serious.
For over 20 years DR.. Franklin Miles,
the eminent specialist, has made profound
study of heart disease, its causes and cure,
and many of the leading discoveries in that
direction are due to him. His New Heart
Cure is absolutely the only reliable remedy
for the cure of heart disease, as is proved
by thousands of testimonials from grateful
persons who have used it.
James A. Pain, editor Of the Cory, Pa, Leader,
states: "After an apparent recovery from three
months of la grippe, fell on the street uncon-
sgious from heart disease. In one month tron
