were worlds records, he said he could not do SO.
He believed them 20 be worlds records, but mad no

FREELAND, PA. JANUARY 10, 1898


A few weeks ago, says the Chicago
Times-Herald, the local press an
nounced with flourish of trumpets
that inventive genius had won another
triumph and South side citizen had
patented a device to prevent snoring.
At that time, we believe, this discovery
was hailed as a great boon to the pub
lie. Now we have come to look upon it
as an unwarranted and unjustifiable in
reference with one of the manifesto
tions of nature. A special dispatch from
Milwaukee announces that Robert Wag
ner, of that city, has been saved from
going to the penitentiary because he
is the owner and user of a peculiar ear
piercing, nerve-shattering snore. Rob-
ert, it appears, owned a warehouse
which burned the other night under
circumstances which indicated incen-
diarism. He was arrested and a clear
case of circumstantial evidence was
made out against him. At the last mo-
ment two nieces proved a complete alibi
for him by swearing that during the
night in question they were kept awake
by their uncle's nasal foghorn, which
never missed a toot all night. Go to
with your clothespins and claptraps
built for silencing the snore! Nature
knows best.

One of the best prescriptions that can
issue from a physician is change,
specialist friend of mine tells me.
says a writer in an exchange.
The effects of mingling with new people
who have new methods of thought is
very salutary, he says. Always to see
the same people do the same thing,
feel the same way, produces a!stagnant
condition of the mind and heart that
is very distressing to behold. There
are thousands of invalids who might
be greatly benefited by getting away
from home, if only for a short time,
to mingle with strangers and be
touched with the magnetism of the
great world as it courses in its accus-
toned rounds. And there are mental
and moral invalids who need the same
change to get their heart and mind
enlarged and let in little more of the
great light of life.
