entirely "daft over the result. If week.
before-lasl's game had such an effect up
on him, what will last week do for himg
The game advertised to be played on

Bad luck appears 10 pursue Asa
Smith, of Pennington, with remarkable
persistency. Some years ago, while a
resident OF Stockton, piece of steel flew
into one of his eyes while at work in n
factory there, and it was impossible 10 re-
move it. The accident caused a disease
to develop in that eye, entirely destroying
it. He is now employed in the Fleming
ton foundry of Foran & Abendroth, and
last Monday, while actively at his work,
he stepped on nail, which ran entirely
through his foot. A physician dressed
the wound, and, although the foot is swol-

If You VIII Use a Little Reasoning

and not he influenced by the claim tina
catarrh is a blood disease, you can easily
prove that catarrh is climatic. Have you
not the severest catarrhal attacks during
winter and spring, and have you but little
evidence of catarrh during the summer ?
Yes. Well, this proves it is climatic
disorder, innaming the membrane of the
nasal passages. 1t is a waste OF time and
money to invest in blood remedies. The
proper treatment is a local application,
and the most prompt 10 cure Is that pop.
ular remedy, EIy's Cream Balm.

AS almost everybody is looking for
ward to trip to the scashore during the
summer, the following account, from the
philadelphia Record" of remarkably
fast trip from Philadelphia to Atlantic
City will DO found interesting -
For several weeks past rumors have
been circulating to the effect that either or
both OF the railroads between Philadelphia
and Atlantic City have In contemplation n
further reduction in the time of express
trains between this city and the seashore.
Up 10 this time neither The Pennsylvania
nor the Reading has given official count
ennnce 10 these reports, bnt II has been
conclusively demonstrated that one OF the
lines is able to cut the time down TO one
hour for the round trip, including fcrriage
across the Delaware.
Ca Wednesday the Reading Railroads
-four o'clock flyer, made the quickest
trip ever accomplished by regular train
and established new record for regular
travel between Philadelphia and Atlantic
City. Inprecisely 66 minutes from the time
the ferry boat left Chestnut Street wharf the
train was brought to standstill In the de.
pot Mt Atlantic City. The Dol miles be.
tween Camden and Atlantic City was
traversed in 46 minutes, showing that the
Reading is not only capable OF pegging
down tho time to 60 minutes from the city
to seashore, but can even, II desirable,
better this contamination of what has
been the dream of Railroad men for
years.
The engine making the phenomenal run
was, "Number 1896" one OF the locomo-
liyes recently built at Baldwn's for fast
senshorc service. 1t hauled the usual
train OF one Pullman and six heavy
coacheslp No effort was made to break
the record" and the passengers were not
aware that they were assisting" In
notable feat OF railroading.
The whole of the Readings Atlantic
City line has recently been relaid with
extra heavy steel rails which, with the addi-
tional protection afforded by the complete
automatic block signal system, enables
much higher speed to be attained than
heretofore, while at the same time adding
to the security of travel.
