Mr.. Major, the famous cement man of
New York, explains some very interest
ing facts about Majors Cement.
The multitudes whe use this standard
article know that it is many hundred per
cent better than other cements for which
similar claims are made, but great
many do not know why. The simple
reason is that Mr.. Major uses the best
materials ever discovered and other
manufacturers do not use them, because
they are too expensive and do not allow
large profits. Mr.. Major tells us that
one of the elements of his cement costs
1878 pound, and another costs $3.50 a
gallon, while large share of the so call
ed cements and liquid glue upon the
market are rothing more than sixteen
cent glue, dissolved in water or citric
acid, and, in some cases. altered slightly
in color and odor by the addition of
cheap and useless materials
Majors cement retails at fifteen cents
and twenty five cents bottle. and when
dealer tries to sell substitute you can
depend upon it that his only object is to
make larger profits.
The profit on Majors cement is as
much as any dealer ought to make on
any cement. And this is doubly true in
view of the fact that each dealer gets his
share of the benefit of Mr. Ma ors adj
vertising, which now amounts to over
$4,000 month throughout the country
Established in 1876.
Insist on having Majors. Do not &C
cept any off hand advicefr from a druggist.
If you are at all handy (and you will
be likely to find that you are good deal
more so than yon imagine) you can re-
pair your rubber boots and family shoes
and any other rubber and leather arti-
5les, with Majors Rubber Cement and
Majors Leather Cement.
And you will be surprised at how
many dollars year you will thus save.
If your druggist can't supply you, it
will be forwarded by mail; either kind.
Free of postage.

The fire which destroyed the immense
Swamp Root medicine plant of DR.. Kill
mer & Co., July l, wa the most disas-
trous which has ever occurred In Blng-
hamton. However, the Kllmers resumed
business next morning, though not at
the old stand, which was a heap of
smouldering ashes. While the fremen
were yet pouring water on the burning
Chenango street establishment, the Kill
mer's were arranging to do business
some where else. That this great indus
try might not be crippled for moment,
through the courtesy of other promi-
nent firms and citizens, the large factory
and adjoining buildings on South street
were vacated for the benefit of the
Swamp Root people, and possession was
taken Immediately, and here, by Mon
day, July Sth, this new, temporary fac
tory is turning out Swamp Root, the
great Kidney Remedy, in quantities of
about 10000 bottles per day, and in two
or three weeks time the full capacity OF
more than four times that amount will
be produced. The immense demand for
Swamp Root will thus in no way be in
terfered with. On the old site, with adj
joining property which has just been
purchased, will be Immediately erected
an absolutely fire proof six-story struct-
ure, plans for which have been nearly
completed.

Further Details OF the Murder OF the hlnS

MOnez, July 31.-The terrible tragedy
happened so quickly and unexpectedly
that the king was dead almost before
the spectators realized what had Oc

and was just driving off when the
revolver shots were fired in quick sue
.cession. Some witnesses assert that
BresSi was seen just previously way
inc his hands and cheering. The first
shot wounded the king i'll the neck;
the second, the fatal one, pierced his
heart. and the third broke the arm Of
the already dying sovereign.
The crowd was stunned by the I'M
expected scene, but speedily a rush
was made toward the assassin. He
did attempt to escape and was rough
ly treated until the carabineerS formed
a Gordon and secured him from the
fury of the people. An eyewitness
says that Immediately after the shots
We're fired the king fell back pressing
his hand to his heart. He was in
SANITY supported by General Ponzio
Baglia, who told the coachman to drive
with all speed to the castle. After his
exclamation 1T is nothing" the king
did not utter a sound. Blood gushed
from his mouth.
The assassin, on reaching the guard
room of the carabineers, was in pitt
