THEY NOW KNOW BETTER.
"eoioEasts Have of Late Discarde d tAe Old Notion About Gla-
 cial Movements

Afew years ago geologists confident. " asserted that at one period of the worlds history great ice cap came moving down from the polar regions and swept over North America as far south as latitude 3s, carrying with it great bowlders-which lie about on slopes and hilltops to this uay to prove it-and scratching the record O its movement upon cliffs and lodges. Then this ice cap kindly melted and disappeared. This was taught in the schools, and to doubt it was heresy; for science, when it takes up with a theory, is dogmatic, and all geologists said: Behold, how wonderful is our knowledge; what secrets we can wrest from the past!" After awhile science rather gave up the polar ice cap theory and lald down a new dog ma-that of single continental ice sheet for North America.
 The recent investigations of officers of the Canadian geological survey prove that the scientists evolved their glacial theory out of vivid imagina- tion. It has been found that in northern Alaska there is no evidence that that part of the country was ever covered by a glacier-in fact, conclusive evidence exists that it was not. At the mouth of the Mckenzie river is plenty of evidence O. glacial action, and also that the glacier which left it's records came from the south. On the western snores of Hud- son bay are marks of glacier which came from the west, and on the east ern shores of one which came from the east. East of the Canadian Rock ies is long belt which shows no evi- dence of ever having been exposed to glacial action.
 These and similar discoveries have put the geologists "all at sea-" and they now have evolved a new theory regarding the glacial period. It is that one big glacier did not at one time cover all the North American continent, but that several glaciers, moving at different times from diff ferent eenters of distribution, made their way in different directions and left the glacial records which are now found. They have en given names to these glaciers, such as the Cor dilleran glacier" the "Labradorian glacier" and the "Keewatin glacier" Prof Lawson, of the University of Cal ifornia, in writing on the subject in the International Monthly, says that as yet it cannot be said that the suc- cession of these great glaciers in time has been established we'll enough to warrant an unqualified acceptance, but he seems to have little hesitation in accepting the theory of different glaciers moving from different points.

HOW A PRETTY SOCIETY GIRL
 ESCAPED DREADED CONSUMPTION.
Peruna Used in Time Saved Her Life.
All'S We'll That Ends We'll.

It is the same old story of exposure to cold. The cold passing down the bronchial tubes to the lungs; the developing of a set tied cold on the lungs, coughing, expectora- tlon. This is a short road to consumption. Thousands of people have travelled it. Thou sands more will travel it and the coming winter will develop an untold multitude of new cases.
 In the case of Helen Murphy, the ending was a happy one. She started on the road to consumption after catching cold at re- ception. Instead of waiting until she be- came incurable, Peruna was resorted to and her life was saved.
 It is pity that everyone else in this wide land could not know of this very effective remedy In such cases. The news is spread ing fast but great many people have not yet heard that Peruna is sure cure in these cases.
 Peruna cures acute catarrh and chronic catarrh; catarrh of the head and catarrh of the lungs; catarrh of the throat and catarrh of the stomach. Wherever catarrh may have located itself, whether in the digestive organs, kidneys or pelvic organs, Peruna is sure to eradicate the disease promptly.
 Another case where consumption was cheated of its prey occurred in the state of Iowa. The report of the case created con siderable attention at the time and was fur nished us unsolicited by Mir Henrickson In letter to Dr. Hartman he sets forth some interesting details of his rescue from consumption. He made use of the following language
 "I have been for years a constant sufferer from chronic catarrh of the head and throat, which finally worked down into the air passages. In the spring of '9S 1 took a severe cold and coughed all summer. thought l had consumption. Then had a bad attack of la grippe. After taking 2 course of Peruna feel cured of all these troubles.
 "Wheneverany of our children get sick we give them Peruna, and it never fails to cure them. 1 most heartily testify to the value of Peruna in cases of catarrh and la grippe. ! hope this may be the means of others sui fering as 1 did to take Peruna and be cured We would not be without it in the house" Henry Henrckson. Generally the first cold of the season is caught in November. With some people this lasts all winter and lays the foundation of chronic catarrh. In the beginning a few doses of Peruna is sufficient to make per manent cure.
 Send for Dr. Hartman's latest book on chronic catarrh. Address the Peruna Med icine Co., Columbus, Ohio.

u. S. Intervention In English
BOer War,

Since the beginning of the Transvaal
war the President and the State Depart
ment have been deluged with appeals,
letters, and petitions from large
number of wellmeaning citizens urg-
ing the administration to intervene
between England and the two Repub-
lies. In the first place it may be pre-
sumed that 80 per cent Of these know
nothing as to the consequences of an
Intervention. They fail to realize that
to intervene in the broad sense of the
word is to become active belligerents
against England and TO actually com
mence hOstilities against her. No in
terventiOn short of an actual resort to
arms on our part would accomplish
anything whatever. England dare not
halt in her course because of a mere
threat on the part of any power. TO
do so would be an acknowledgment of
such weakness as to imperil her posi-
ton as one of the important powers.
Then the only remaining thing that the
inteTventiOnists could insist upon, on
the part of the President and Congress,
would be to open warfare with nation
1000 to 5000 miles away from our
shores. Such warfare to be at all
successful must cost more blood and
treasure than all the wars in which we
have ever engaged.
And it is worthy Of note that after
months of effort the representative of
the Republics have not been able to
enlist single European power in
their behalf.
Germany, Austria, Italy, France, and
Spain have all spoken in relation to
the matter, and have all refused to in
any manner take any part in the con
test. If these, some of them the nat
ural enemies of England, refuse to aid
the Republics surely no one having the
best interest of this nation at heart
would consider it proper for our nation
to meddle in an affair not in any sense
our own and from which we have moth
ing to gain.
President Mckinley has made it
known to the representatives of Eng
land that if England should at any
time desire it, the administration will
act as a peace-maker on the part of
both belligerents. This course on the
part of the President is to be commend.
ed as humane, and at the same time
duly cautious in not attempting to mar
the cordial relations existing between
the two nations.

that the clty's contrac, win the Akron

legal for the reason that IL had never

has asked the City Solicitor to give
him un opinion upon the legality of the

Were Councilman Paul right in his
belief, the complexion of the water
