HOW TO PREVENT PNEUMONIA.

AT this time of the year cold is
very easily contracted, and if left to
run its course without the aid of some
reliable cough medicine is liable to re-
suit in that dread disease, pneumonia.
We know of no better remedy to cure
cought or cold than Chamberlain s
Cought Remedy. We have used it
quite extensively, and it has always
given entire sfaction-Olagah, Ind.
Ter. Chief.
This is the only remedy that is
known to be certain preventive Of
pneumonia. Among the many thous-
ands who have used it for colds and
la grippe. we have never yet learned
of single case having resulted in
pneumonia. Persons who have weak
lungs or have reason to fear an attack
of pneumonia, should keep the reme-
dy at hand.-For sale by all druggists

Uses of Old Shoes.

Old shoes are not lost by any means.
In this country they are dissected and
subjected to a course of manipula-
tions by which they are converted into
kind of artificial leather, which is
made to look very fine and may be ele-
gantly ornamented In France they go
through less elaborate transformation.
At the military prison in Montpelier
the shoes, the majority Of which come
from Spain, are ripped apart, and the
nails are drawn out The parts are soft
ened in water and are then cut up by
machine into vamps for children's or
little girls Shoes The soles are likewise
utilized. The smallest pieces are used
to make the Louis XIV toes which were
in fashion few years ago. Pieces a lit
tie larger and thinner are made into the
sQles of babies shoes. The nails Of iron
are separated by means Of magnet
from copper nails, and the latter are
sold for higher price than tine others.
The manager of the prison represents
that the returns from this manufacture
nearly equal the cost of the old shoes

SUNDAY SCHOOL LIBRARIES.
Many of the Books an Insult to the In
tAIligeace of Young People.


Many of the Books an Insult to the In
tAlligence of Young People.
Edward W Box has been making q
careful and comprehensive examination
of Sunday school libraries, and in The
Ladies Home journal he confesses him
self disgusted with the literature thus
placed in the hands of our boys and
girls A less complete investigation,
Mr.. Box says, would not have made it
possible for him to believe that the IL
braries of our Sunday schools wereA
stocked with such piles of rubbish
''wishy washy literature, as he terms
it. He quotes the titles and gives the |
themes of a number of books he obtained |
from Sunday school libraries, and these |
seem to completely warrant his conclu-
sions. "Such books, he contends, ARE !
an insult to the intelligence of the !
young people and have pernicious in
finence. Instead of being healthy books
they are decidedly unhealthy in tone
and teaching. Surely we are cultivating
a dangerous taste for reading in the
young when we feed them ON such rub
bish.
Mr.. Box unhesitatingly lays part Of
the blame upon the publication boards
and societies, which are Influenced by
denominational spirit that narrows
their choice of books. Then, again, it is
shown that the most mediocre sort of
talent" is employed to write these
books, and that beggarly prices-less
than $50 per book-are paid A share
of responsibility, Mr.. Box asserts. rests
upon the men who purchase Sunday
school libarries, who, as is most fire.
quently the case, are not qualified for
the task and whose object is to secure q
library as cheap as possible. Mr. Box
warmly urges that the selection of Sun
day school books be left to women, who
instinctively know and feel the kind
of book which a boy or girl win read
and enjoy" He insists that women
should be given carte blanche to make
the selections SO far as the prescribed
amount of money will go. A hundred
good books, Mr. Box concludes, ARE
far better than 500 books of Indifferent
interest, which are bought simply be-
cause they are c heap "A Sunday school
library cannot be created in day, and
no Encouragement should be felt if the
financial means of the church are con-
tracted and necessitate the purchase Of
only a few books at a time. =

Jne lighter color having the widest
stripe. The gown was cut in one piece
from neck to foot 1t was adjusted at
the neck and over the chest by means of
plaits, and all the fu1lness of these fell
free from the bust line. There was
bertha of herre lace all around the
shoulders, except in the center of the
back, where the inevitable vatican
claimed place. In front the lace in form
of a scarf fell to the foot, little to the
right side. On the left was a long looped
bow of ribbon and another lace scarf.
On the neck, shoulders and wrists were
Tuff1es and puffed bows of white silk
muslin. The ribbon passed under the
vatican and belted the fronts in loosely,
making 1t a graceful and handsome
gown for such as like the loose effects.
Some of the best houses are showing
q choice line of black wool goods and
others where colors are mingled in an
entirely new style and an effective one.
These are camel's hair curl cloths, the
body being of brown wine, blue, green,
olive, dahlia, petunia and TuddY red,
with tiny black curls above it, forming
plaids or other patterns. These are very
beautiful to those who love color tenn
pered with black. There are pretty and
neat cheviot checks and bourettes in the
loose weaves now SO popular, and some
OF the burlap suitings have shot effects.
The black goods are very choice. The
lizard novelty suiting is a novelty in
deed, but pleasing one. But the black
grenadines in twisted wool cords, the
gauzes, the seeded bareges. the escurial
grenadines, the Mexicans. the Floren-
tines. the Russian and Spanish canvases,
the coarse hammock net suitings and
cable cord grenadines are all on the
counters to choose from. My impression
is that the hammock and cable cords
will be the favorites just because they
are so impossible to sew into the proper
shape. These all require silken Innings,
colored or hlaclssas one's taste suggests.

also all silk brussels net are presented

The Commanders Consideration For q
Wounded officer of the Enemy.
The following anecdote is related by
General Horace Porter in his Cam
paigning With Grant, " in The Century:
While riding about the field General
Grant stopped at house and expressed
a desire to prepare some dispatches A
number of wounded were lying upon
the porch and in the rooms. They had
made their way there in accordance
with the usual custom of wounded men

shelter and of home. walked with the
general into back room to see whether
there was dry spot which be might

write messages and look over the maps.
As we entered there was seen sitting
In the only chair Confederate lieuten-
ant of infantry who had been shot in
the left cheek, the ball passing through
his mouth and coming out near the
right ear. A mass of coagulated blood
covered his face and neck, and he pre-
sented shocking appearance. He arose
the moment we entered, pushed his
chair forward toward the general and
said, with a bow and smile, Here,
take my chair, sir. General Grant
looked al LIN and replied: All, you
need that chais much more than /.

turedly: IF you folks let me go back

to get leave to go home and see my
girl. But | reckon she wouldn't t know
me now. The general said, II will see
that one CT cur surgeons does all in his
power for you, and then stepped out
of the room. He told one of the surgeons
who was dressing the wounds of our
men to do what be could for the Con-
federate We did not hear what became
of him afterward. He probably never
knew that he had Eeen talking to the
general in chief of the Yankee armies.
The dispatches were afterward written
in another room.

LIN a BAD WAY.

The Hartford Post tells of man who
rushed into the office of the gas com
pany few days ago and, sticking his
face through the opening in the desk
rail, said, What's the matter with the
gas up my way, Oh dunno?" A little
cross examination elected the fact that
the gas up his way had been jumping
up and down for week like a bob on
a fishline. " A promise to look the mat
ter over was given, and the much ag-
grieved citizen took his departure, after
giving the following warning, IF yea

ONTARIO

ONTARIO, April 27.-(Regular Cor
rio for years was announced yesterday.
The San Antonio Water company has
purchased the entire interests of the
Pomona Land and Water company in
San Antonio canyon. This embraces
HOO acres of water bearing land and all
of the water flowing in the San An
tonic creek, except that which is fur
nished to the Loop -Meserve tract. The
amount of water which this tract re-
ceives is half of the surface flow up to
624 inches. When the flow is more than
624 inches, they only receive 312 inches,
all the balance going to Ontario. How
ever, If the stream should fall below
624 inches, the LoopMeserve tract will
only receive half of the water actually
running in the stream. AS the creek
usually contains much more than 624
inches, Ontario will gain large amount
of water.
This arrangement also enables the
San Antonio company to develop water
in the canyon and watershed thus max
ing it possible to largely increase the
supply.
There is much rejoicing over the news
by our citizens.
