Marietta Mothers Make it, But with n Lit

How carefully parents guard the Sc
crets of their boys and girls. AT night
as they carefully tuck the bed clothes
around them they chide AID warn them
that they will be angry If they repeat
last nights tffense, softly saying to
themselves, it's only a habit but we
must break them of it. This is the pa
rents mistake. The children cannot
help it, and sweet, clean Cry beds, can
be tho resting place of every child when
it is understood that the cause is not
habit. but weakness that can be ctr.
elk. Active life Of the little ones tend
to weaken the kidneys, and weak kid
ness means inability to retain the urine
This SIS a condition, not a habit. and
should have the fame prompt attention
you would give to the marked symp.
toms Of any disease. One Doan's Kid
ney Pills taken twice day and at bed
time will strengthen the kidneys of a
child and in a short time there will be
no cause to scold, for the so-called hab-
it will disappear promptly.
Mrs. VIM. Mcbride, of No. 2s2 West
Bloom street, Mansfield, o., says: MY
little boy when he was eight weeks old
was attacked with rheumatism. He
recovered from the immediate effects
of it but ever since he has had weak
kidneys. This has given me great
deal of trouble both during the night

IN CAMP.
An Enjoyable Day Spent at Fern

Ye fair nymphs Of the Mystic Shrine
and ye their naughty peers who have
left the excitement of the hustling
city for the quietude of the woods and
dare the black and dark nights with
the creeping and crawling of snakes,
and those of you who have passed, in
safety, the hot sands of the schorching
desert we'll know how to make it
pleasant for those who are not mem
bers of your camp.
1t has been we'll said that where
Fred Audibert is you can bet there
will be something good to eat, etc.
Why, Burt Williams has got so fat
since he has been in camp that an or
dinary pair Of scales were not big
enough to weigh him and he went to
the hay scales of Mr.. Stowe to find
that he had gained % pounds.
Sunday about twenty-five of their
friends went up to their camp and en-
joyed the day with them in Fern
Lodge" The dinner which was set
out for them was something simply
grand. The pig roast, weighing 40
pounds, and roasted with oyster dress
ing and sweet potatoes on the side
was superb This, together with all
the side dishes of the season, made a
dinner long to be remembered, and
the way some of the guests went into
that layout was enough to scare any
one.
Afetr dinner we were shown about
the camp and the way the boys are
fixed is caution. They have even
taken the care and precaution to tie
the ice box to two large trees with
inch rope.

Late in the evening the guests left
for home in band wagon, wishing
the boys another pleasant week. The
boys expect to remain in camp an

DISAPPEARED
As Though the Earth Had Opened
Up and Swallowed Him.

Geo. r. Waters a prominent young
attorney of Pittsburg and well
known oil operator of the fields
around Marietta, is mysteriously mis-
sing and no trace of his whereabouts
can be learned.
He went to Parkersburg few days
ago, accompanied by his wife, and reg
istered at the Hotel Jackson. He is
interested in the Hendershot oil field
below this city, and was in the vicin-
ity looking over his possessions.
He left Parkersburg Saturday for
the Henderson field, expecting to join
his wife at the hotel in the evening.
EIe got off the train at Henderson S
switch and went to the river, where
he attempted to get skiff to cross.
No one can be found that ferried him
| over and it is thought that he might
have attempted to cross on the wing
dam to the island and fell in and was
drowned.
1t is reported, however, that he was
seen in this city late Saturday after
noon.
Mr.. Waters has been feeling badly
for some time past and it was thought
that he was threatened with fever. 1t
is surmised that he might have be-
come delirious from the ravages of
the fever and wandered away.

er, Mr.. John s. Scully, of Pittsburg,

help in the search for Mr.. Waters.

means possible will be used to find the

1t was reported late in the afternoon
that man answering the description
of Mr.. Waters was seen on the road
between this city and Belpre in
buggy.
Mr. H. S. Protzman, of Parkersburg,
was telephoned late Monday night and
he stated that some eight or ten per-
sons had reported seeing a man which
in every way answered the description
of Mr.. Waters. Men have been put on
each road leading off the main road
and it is hoped that he will be found
before morning.

WATER WORKS.

1t will be by almost common con-
sent that Trustees will get the money
to build additional reservoirs and set
Ting tanks, so that the water may
come pure and clear from the faucets.
All river cities like Marietta are
struggling with the same problem
How to render river water clear and
wholesome? Even Cincinnati, with
her limitless revenues, is engaged in a
supreme effort to provide new water
supply ample for her needs for many
years to come and at the same time
supplying clear water.
If Marietta attempts any improve
ment Of this kind she must expect to
spend some money, and to build not
alone for the next ten years, but for
the next fifty years at least, and the
people will demand this. While Civ
ing the money freely they will expect
a complete and substantial system of
water supply with filters, settling
tanks and whatever other modern ap-
pliances may be found necessary to
supply US with pure water.
NEGLECTED.
While the city has been busy at
more important Improvements which
have taken all the available cash.
some places have been neglected. For
instance, take the section of the city
bordering on Glendale, Seventh and
Putnam streets. Seventh street from
Greene to Putnam is probably one of
the worst in the city. No sewers or
pavements. Then Seventh stops at
Putnam when it ought to be opened
up so as to connect with Wooster.
Houses are being built on what should
be the new street when opened up and
thus certain widths fixed before the
city authorities get to the question of
how wide such streets should be-, In
this locality there is no adequate pro-
vision made for foot passengers, es-
pecially for the denizins of Glendale
beyond College Hill. A new sidewalk
is needed on the easterly side OF Put
nam from Glendale to Sixth street,
along the chair factory property. An
ether along Glendale street to the city
limits. This part of the city has been
rapidly filing up within the past few
years. with fine modern houses, which
have gone on the duplicate for taxa
tion at the highest figures the Board
of Equalization dared to give them
and 1t will not be long before the
property owners of Glendale and vi
cinity will demand that something
shall be done, in the way Of sewerage,

MILLION DOLLAR CONTRACT
Likely to go to Hirschman Brothers
One Item in the Equipment of
an Army.

The Quartermaster Department
of the United States Army has an
nounced the receipt of a number of
bids for supplying 10000 army over
coats of dark blue Is ounce Kersev.
A great many bids were received
ranging from 1892 to 1925.
Hirschman Brothers bid $1,000 but
arranged for the delivery of the
coats at the rate of 1000 daily after
the first few days. The call for
bids was for $4,000 overcoats the de-
partment reserving the right to have
100000 for the same figure. The
latter number will most likely be re-
quired. The bid referred to above
was that of Mr.. 5. ID. Hirschman
for Hirschman Brothers, OF 70S
Broadway, N. Y. 1t looks as if
they would be awarded the contract.
1t will be very large one and if
it should net the contractor the
modest sum of 80 cents on each
coat the aggregate would be very
handsome sum. We hope our friends
will receive the order.
