There IS comfort in the knowledge so
often expressed. that Dr.. Kilner's Swamp

wish in curing rheumatism, pain in the

necessity of being compelled TO go often

realized. 1t stands the highest for its won

An Episode OF the Hunting Season.

with apology to Punsutawney splrt.l
Said an old grey squirrel tn her three big sons,
From n hole In n chestnut tree:
"Now this Is the season for dogs and guns,
When the Man Cub makes rs flee.
He stalks through the woods with his thun-
der-stck,
And whenever you show your head
He raiseth II up-and you hear click
And bang" II killeth you dead"
The rodents tremblcd and shook with fear,
And every one Of the lot
Crouched close to limb and prlcked up his
ears,
When they heard the sound of n shot!
Then they hurried away in leaps and starts,
And hid In the top Of a tree,
And looked and listened, with throbbing
hearts,
Till the old squirrel saw DIR. King, II. u.
"a false alarm!" cried Grandmother Grey,
But II nearly frightened me sick,
For thought John Welsh was coming this
way
with his terrible thunder-stick.
But now we can chatter and scampcr about
without the least cause for dismay,
For there be some OF these Man Cubs
That cant hit n load of hay"

According to some of the latest laws
newspaper publishers may cause indi-
viduals, who take paper and refuse to
pay for it, to be arrested for fraud.
Under this ruling, also, any one who
allows his subscription to run along for
a time unpaid and then orders it discon-
tinued, or orders the postmaster to
mark it refused" and send a postal
card to the publisher, is liable to arrest
and fine the same as for theft and other
crimes.-Neicspaper Tdik.

Letter to Prlester Bros,
ReunOldsrille. Pa.


Dear Sirs: Some think we take good
deal of risk in inviting complaints Of
Devoe lead and zinc-we authorize our
agents to sell it under this guarantee:
"If you have any fault to find with
this paint, either now in putting it on,
or hereafter in the wear, tell your deal
er about it.
I'VE authorize him to do what is
right at our expense"
The following story tells how little
the risk Isl
j. H. Asher & Co., hardware dealers,
Rhinebeck, N. Y, have sold Devoe from
rs to now, and have had just one
complaint in all this time.
Three sides of house were perfect:
the fourth was as bad as the three
were good.
Explanation-It rained the night be-
fore the fourth side was painted; and
the painters didn't wait for the wood to
dry.
What is done in such case? What
ever the dealer, who sold the paint,
considers it fair TO do. We leave it to
him. He may not do exactly what we
should do If we were there; but we are
not there. The best we can do is to
leave it to him.
Yours truly,
Is F. w. DEvoE & Co.
