Is 1t Right for Editor to Recon-
mend Patent Medicines?

1t may be a question whether the
editor of newspaper has the right to
publicly recommend any Of the various
proprietary medicines which flood the
market. yet as preventive Of suffering
we feel it duty to say a good word for
Chamberlains Collie, Cholera and Diar-
rhoea Remedy. We have known and
used this medicine in our family for
twenty years and have always found
it reliable In many cases a dose of this
remedy would save hours of suffering
while physician is awaited. We do
not believe in depending implicitly on
any medicine for cure, but we do be,
lieve that if bottle of Cham berlains
Diarrhoea Remedy were kept on hand
and administered at the inception of an
attack much suffering might be avoided
and in many cases the presence of a
physician would not be required. At
least this has been our experience dur
ing the past twenty years. For sale by

White Man Turned Yellow.

Great CONSERVATION was felt by
the friends of NJ. A. Hogarty, of Lex
ington, Ky, when they saw he was
turning yellow. His skin slowly
changed color, also his eyes, and he
suffered terribly His malady was
yellow iaundice. He was treated by
the best doctors, but without benefit.
Then he was advised to try Electric
Bitters. the wonderful stomach and
liver remedy, and he writes: "After
taking two bottles [ was wholly
cured" A trial proves its matchless
merit for all stomach, liver and kid
ney troubles Only SOC. Sold by +.

MAN IN TERTIARY AGE.
Important Discovery Claimed by q
Colorado Explorer in New
Mexico,

Capt. Cecil A. Deane, of the Denver
State Historical society, lately spent
two weeks near Gallup, N. NJ, looking
for a sandstone house partially COW
cred by a bed of lava. This, says a
Denver exchange. he failed to find but
he discovered other evidence of the
presence of man in that locality dur
ing the tertiary period. Near the given
site of the elusive stone house they
came upon the site Of an old lake COW
cred with lava. Fifty feet above the
original level of the vanished lake a
cliff house was found. From this long
untenanted abode the explorers took
two bushels of calcined corn, which,
however, had not come into contact
with any burning substance. 1t was of
an altogether different variety from
the corn that is and has been used by
the Indians. Over the corn was layer
of Clipped stone Redeemed by intense
heat from the lava bed Of solicited de-
bris which lay above the burnt rock.
In the house in which the corn was
stored there were no weapons or uten-
sils made of lava. On the other hand,
such weapons and utensils were plenti-
full in the cliff dwelling at lower level.
These facts have convinced Capt.
Deane that the region was Inhabited
before and after the lava flow, which
is of the later tertiary period.

Berries That Grow In the Arctic.

The Eskimo children have ether
things than snowballs and icebergs
to eat. Things grow very fast in the
short arctic summer. AS soon as the
snow melts off in many places the
ground is covered with a vine which
bears small berry something like a
huckleberry, porwong it is called. 1t
is sour and has a pungent taste, and
the Indians leave off work and go
porwong hunting, examining them
selves with the berries. 1t is lucky
thing for them that the summer is
so short, or there would be an cpl

, injuries to the head are generally of a

The good players in football are the

SO true that the men who are not
afraid of being hurt are seldom on the

one time or another. Men like Hare

of Yale, Lawrence and Kendall of Har-
ward, Pell and Reiter of Princeton and
other such players who put up a fierce
argument at all stages can be depend
ed upon to go through a whole season
without serious mishaps. Courage cou-
pied with strength and agility pre-
vents accidents, while timidity and
hesitancy often cause fatalities. Any
football expert who knows what he is
talking about will say that the men
who die from injuries received on the
