The Coffee Heart.

The coffee heart is the latest to be
added to the classihcations OF the
functional arrangements of that or
gan. The coffee heart is due to an
over indulgence in that beverage, just
as the tobacco heart is credited to
the use of tobacco, or the bicycle
heart to extravaganza in wheeling.
A medical director in life insurance
company AYERS that over-indulgence
in the use of coffee shortens the beat
of the heart, and that the excessive
use of it hereafter will be regarded as
risks in life insurance.

Loaded With Germs.

Physicians declare that the pens
and pencils used in the school rooms
are loaded with deadly disease germs.
They say that parents should caution
their children not to put the end of a
pen or pencil in the mouth. A pen
or pencil furnished by the school, is
in time passed through the hands of
every scholar in the room, and by the
time each has taken a chew at the
end, the germs, if they exist, will be
thoroughly distributed.

under the name of Baker, called upon
George F. Stetlcr, an undertaken, and
stated that his sister died at Paxtonville
at the home of Mrs. Dobson, and he
wanted to buy coffin. Undertaken
Stetler showed him the different styles
and prices of the caskets and Baker
finally selected one for SIS. Stetler
made out bill for it and was handed a
check for SOS on the Lewistown bank.
He suspected something and tele-
phoned to Paxtonville TO ascertain
whether there was corpse at the Dob
son house The answer was that there
was no corpse In town. On this Baker
then unceremonlously ran away and
bas not been heard from since.

Deafness. c.ooo. q. Cured

By local applications as they can
not reach the deceased portion of
the ear. There IS only one way to
cure deafness, and that is by con-
stitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an iuflamed condition OF
the mucous lining Of the Eustach-
ian Tube. When this tube is in
famed you have rumbling sound
or imperfect hearing, and when it
is entirely closed, deafness is the
result, and unless the inflamma-
ton can be taken out and this tube
restored to its normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out of ten are caused
by catarrh, which is nothing but
an inflamed condition of the mu-
cous surfaces. We will give One
Hundred Dollars for any case OF
deafness (caused by catarrh) that
cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh

l. l.. convention in St. Louis this
week An engineers wife, who
was attending the sessions of the
auxiliary, was called into the ante
room by the presiding officer to be
informed OF the sudden death OF
her husband in wreck in New

ting in an animated manner with
some OF her colleagues, and thought
as she smilingIy retired that the
presiding officer was about to lect-
ure her on decorum, little dream
ing of the news that awaited her.
She was prostrated by the event.
The dangers and uncertainties that
these brave men daily undergo are
too little appreciated, until some
unusually sad incident brings home

Glen Park chautsuqu..

During all this excitement about
the Texas Chautauqua our State
Chau,auqua, the Rocky Mountain
Chautauqua Association, has not
been idle An excellent program,
the bes, ever offered is about ready
for the press. The faculty is as
follows: Rev. +. 7. Bayley, d. D.,
superintendent OF instruction; Rev.
Robt Coltman, NJ. D., OF La Junta,
secretary; Rev. c. w. Heisler,
superintendent OF Bible Normal;
Prof. George Cannon, scientific
department; Prof. Herbert A.
Howe, astronomy; Prof. J. w.
Wetzel, oratory and physical cult
ure. A member of the Chicago
kindergarten College is to have
charge OF the kindergarten Normal
department, OF the model Kinder
garten class and mothers meetings.
There will be number of fine con-
certs given during July and August.
AS the Chautauqua is state affair
different cities will be represented
by lecturers, musicians and enter
tainers Some of the best musical
societies in Denver, Pueblo and
Colorado Springs will each give a
concert or evening entertainment
during the assembly. This will
give variety and insure the best
talent in the state. The Y w. c.
A. and the Y NJ. c. A. are already
planning for their summer homes
at Glen Park. The state Y. NJ. c.
A., through the enthusiastic efforts
OF our new state and city secretary,
Mr.. Danner, are planning to organ
ize Y NJ. c. A. training school
at Glen Park, similar to those at
Northheld, Mass, Geneva, Wis,
and Pacific Grove Chautauqua
Grounds, Cal. This would make
the fourth Y. NJ. {. A. training
school in the United States. Dur
ing these years of depression the
officers OF the Rocky Mountain
Chautauqna Association have kept
steadily at work, always donating
services, often personally footing
bills. The valuable Glen Park
property now belongs to Chautau-
qua and Christian people, and the
ultimate success of the Chautauq9a
is assured. The members of this
association did not invest for profit,
but in order to build and maintain
a clean, Christian and educational
resort, where there is Sabbath
and where the Lords name is hon
ored. The unconventional atmos-
phere, the high moral tone, the
refining influence of the Chautau-
qua, and the Y. w. and the Y. NJ.
c. A. homes all combine to make
Glen Park an ideal resort for cul-
tured people.
