A Warming to Young Men.

The statements made by the sur
geons who are conducting the physi
cal examinations Of recruits for the
volunteer service should have whole
some effect on the young men of the
country among whom the habit oil
cigarette smoking is prevalent. They
report that ninety per cent of thu
reflections of volunteers was because
Of weak hearts and lack of vitality are
young men who are addicted to the
cigarette habit.
DR.. King, of New York, whose
great experience as an examining sur
geon during the civil war, says thai
the percentage of reflections is now
three times greater than at that time
aud he attributes the increase to the
cigarette habit. This view is agreed
with by surgeons who are examining
volunteers. The papers of those who
have been rejected as weak hearted
show that very large percentage Of
them smoke cigarettes. This fact,
so strongly brought out at this time,
should carry with it its own warning.

GOT THERE ELL
The Florence Bell makes the
trip to Fairmont on the
high water

Not very many thought that she could
make the trip and the attendance was
not so large as it would have been
Otherwise--the trip was very inter-
esting one--another one may be ta-
ken on the next rise--The Fairmont
end Of the trip as described by the
Expositor an unique experience.
When it was announced that the
Hudson steamer Florence Belle
would run to Fairmont on the high
water few thought she would get
there but the Captains nerve and
seamanship were equal to the oeca-
sion. After a careful run of over A
hours during which she climbed the
falls, cut cables and telephone wires
and felt her way under the big rail
road bridge she rounded up to the
bank near the depot. Her coming
had been announced there and when
she blew her whistle three or four
thousand people assembled on the
bank, on the bridge, on the house
tops and in every other available
place waving flags and expressing
their satisfaction at seeing her.
Capt. Hudson received many calls
and many congratulations on his
pluck and success. A jolly party
of Morgantown people were aboard
among them great many ladies.
During the trip up a good band en-
livened things greatly. Many regret
that they did not 90 saying they
feared the boat would not be able to
get there. Captain Hudson has
promised TO go again the first time
he is here with water too high to
run below. IF so the capacity of the
boat will be taxed to its utmost.
1t is said that this is the first boat
that has assembled the Monongah ella
that far for Is years. The trip was a
novel one and those who took it say
they would not have missed the cx-
perience for anything. The return
trip was made in q hours though
very cautiously as it was through
strange waters and in many places
over treacherous breakers.
Speaking of the Fairmont end OF
the excursion the Expositor says;
For the first time for Is years
there was a steamboat at Fairmont
to day. 1t was the Florence Belle,
and she came from Morgantown
with a crowd of eXcursionists and q
brass band that footed family II
had footed all the way up the river
almost, and was somewhat tired
when Fairmont was reached nearly
two hours after the time it was eX-
pected to be.
The steamer came in at l:50 and
there was a great crowd everywhere
to see it, The bridge and the river
front and the hilltops and the house
tops and the porchcs and the freight
cars and everyplace which commanded
a view Of the little craft was peopled
thick with those who enjoyed the
novelty Of seeing most any old kind OF
steamer at Fairmont.
1t remained here not more than
half an hour for the river was falling
fast, and it had difficult time in
getting over the mill dams and falls,
and wanted to get back to Morgan.
town before dark. Several people from
here went on the down trip for the
mere novelty of the thing.

800 Reward 800.

The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreadful disease that science has
been able to cure in all its stages, and
that is Catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure
is the only positive cure known to the
medical fraternity. Catarrh being a
constitutional disease, requires con-
stitutional treatment. Halls. Ca
tarrh Cure is taken internally, acting
directly upon the blood and mucous
surfaces of the system, thereby des-
troying the foundation of the disease,
and giving the patient strength by
building up the constitution and as
sistlng nature in doing its work. The
proprietors have SO much faith in its
curative powers, that they offer One
Hundred Dollars for any case that it
fails to cure. Send for list of testi-
monials.

A REPORTED SALE.
However there Has Been No
Such Transaction.

DIR. l. G. White is reported as having
bought the John Building on Main
street Owners say there has been no
such sale win keep the lot and

til next year when a handsome block
will go mp on the iot--Their Friends
will be glad 10 know that they are
going back to the old, sfand--R Ruins. TO
be removed Being tern down
now.
For some days there has been ru-
NOR on the street that the John build
ing owned by G. M. John and William
Moorhead had been sold to DR.. ]. c.
White. The amount paid for the
property was given in some instances
by those who are circulating the re-
port. Other interesting details were
given along with it aud il made a
very interesting item.
However, an inquiry of one of the
owners shows that there is nothing in
the report. They have not sold the
property and they do not intend to
sell it. They take the view that 1t
is worth as much TO them as TO any
one else and they will retain the own
ership Of it. They will put a. fine
business block ON the lot in the end.
This will not he done this year as it
would be too late in the season by the
time the arrangements for that could
be made, but the building viii go up
next season 10 all likelihood.
This lot is one of the best ifnot the
the very best location in town and the
building which is to be put on it will
be an ornament in every way to the
town. Every one is sorry that it is
not going up this summer hut they
are glad to know that at no distant
time the firm will he back at the old
stand. The firm has many friends
and they win be glad to see the dam
age inflicted by the recent fire repaired.
The ruins at present standing on
spot will be removed. A force of
men are engaged on this work now
and they will have It done in very
short time. The lot win be cleared
off and the unsightly ruins will not
remain as monument TO our loss

This sounds Like n Lie.

Colonel Albert Addison Lewis, for
whom Lewis county was named in
1915, is talked of for Congress in the
first district. The last time he was
nominated for this office was in 1872.
but he declined the nomination to
enlist to fight the British. General
Jackson in his report of the battle
of New Orleans paid a high tribute
to the efficient aid given him by
Colonel Lewis, and there are some
who think that had Colonel Lewis
received proper recognition of his
services he would have been Presi-
dent instead of jackson. Republics
are proverbial for ingratitude-Pdr-
kersburq Sentinel.

BY ABSORPTION.

CATARRHAL sufferers should remember
that Ely's Cream Balm is the only ca.
tarrh remedy which is quickly anc
thoroughly absorbed by the diseased
member. 1t does not dry up the secre.
tons. but changes them to limid and
odorless condition, and finally to nat
ural and healthy character.
The Balm can be found at any drug
store or by sending SOC to Ely Brothers
Sc Warren street, New York, it will be
mailed.
Full directions with each package.
Cream Balm opens and cleanses the
nasal passages, allays inflammation
thereby stopping pain in the head
heals and protects the membrane and
restores the senses of taste and smell
The Balm is applied directly into the
nostrils.
