BELLAIRE HAPPENINGS,
Matters Of Interest in the Metropolis
of Belmont County,

The convention at Steubenville to-
morrow to maine n candidate for mem
her OF tina state. board OF equalization
for the counties of Belmont, Columhi-
ana. Harrison and Jefferson, will, not
attract 4 very large crowd. though that
board Is an important one. The mass
convention called to meet at ST. Glars
Vile Friday was attended by perhaps
half a dozen persons, and there were
sixty delegates to name. This is an
Indication of the interest manifestedii In
the matter. No candidates have so far
bobbed up, except In ColumbIana and
Jefferson counties. The very best man
that can be induced TO take the nomi-
nation. without reference to those who
want the place, ought to be named.
The delegates named from this city
and township to the convention at
Steubenvllle are George NJ. Wise, VIM:

THE RAILROADS.

OF the Cleveland, Lorain & Wheeling
railway, the current Issue OF the Rail-,
road Gazette has the following:

is a short railroad. only 1872 miles long;
and Sis per cent gifts TONNAGE is coal.
coke and ore, carried mt n low rate!
Last year the average rate received
was 4.S2 mills per ton-mlle. Obviously,
such property must be worked not
only economically. but intensely in or
der that the small possible profit per
unit Of work shall yield q balance of net
earnings at the end. Fortunately. the
traffic is dense: last year the ton-miles
carried, per mile of railroad worked.
amounted to 1.s76.56S, which Is more
than three times as much work MS is
done on the average mile Of railroad in
the United States, and nearly as much
per mile as is done on the New York
Central east Of Buffalo. where the tonI
miles Of revenue freight per mile Of
road were 2,i36oOO In the year just end !
Lorain e. Wheeling was 347 tons and its
earnings per train mile amounted to
81 g., and the gross earnings were over
$4,000 mile. 1t will be seen, there
fore. that the present management Is
succeeding in working the. property
hard. But the report to the stockhold-
ers informs them that the character of
the business, which necessitates the
movement Of a large tonnage. Mt a. low
rate, requires exceptional facilities. It
is the aim Of the management to pro-
vide these facilities and to raise the
property to a high physical standing.
With this In view, large expenditures
have been made during the year, in
creasing the bonded debt and causing
unusual charges to operating account.
In the reorganization of the finances;ot
the company. some four millions of
consolidated refundlng mortgage bonds
has been reserved for extensions, addi-
tons and improvements In the year
Just closed the gross earnings increased
% per cent, and the earnings 80 per
cent, Notwithstanding heavy increase
in charges to the Items Of maintenance

which charges amounted to 1887 per
cent OF the total working; expenses.
Freight contributed 1855 per, cent of
the gross. earnings, and the freight
earnings increased % per cent in the
Year, while the ton miles Increased 81

I. You will never find our Doc
tor out. He is here to give
advice without charge to those
who need him to those who
don't, sometimes. He doesn't
always recommend the Aver
medicines, because the Aver
medicines are not "cure-alls."
Perhaps if we tear a leaf
from his correspondence it will
show you what we mean. Here
is a letter which came last
March.
r" DEAR DR.3AYER:
II want your advice for my little boy.
He is getting very thin. He has no appe.
;tite. He is fifteen years old. When he
was four years old he had lung fever, but
his health was good until two years ago.
Since then he is failing fast. The doctors
kcre say he has the bronchitis. He spits
an the mcawful bad. The spits are big
2 thick, and white. Yours truly,
rs Mrs. MARGARET MURPHY,
March 50, 1900. Kinbrae, MINI"
And this is the way the Doc
tor answered Mrs. Murphy:
=. Il v i g. L - d
"DEAR MADAM:
ave enclose our book on The Throat
and Lungs, in which We trust you will find
just the information you desire.
'a."You should begin at once the use Of
this Cherry Pectoral for your son, giving
tin moderate doses. Then procure some
good preparation of cod.liver oil, rs
SCOTS Emulsion, and give him that, as
well. Pay particular attention to his diet,
giving him such nourishing foods as rare
steak, lamb chops, good milk, eggs, etc.
Above all, keep him out of doors all that
the. weather permits. There is nothing
that will do him more good than plenty Of
fresh air. Let him live out of doors all
that is possible. BY carrying out these
+ general suggestions We shall hope to hear
soon that your son is improving in every
way. Very truly, yours,
April S, 1900. J, C. AVER" 4
You see, it wasn't only the
Aver medicines that we recon-
mended. The frstidea Of the
Doctor was to cure that boy.
The result is told in this letter:
"DEAR' DR. AVER:
5.'"My little boy has improved so much
since Ireceiyed your advice that l want to
write and tell you how thankful I am.
when i first wrote you, on March
80, he only weighed 50 pounds, but now
he weighs s: pounds; and all this gain
since the 9Th of April, when first began
to follow your directions.
S"Please let me thank you again for what
you have done for my boy.
. July II, 1900. MARGARET MURPHY"
\. Perhaps it was the cod
liver oil; perhaps it was the
Cherry Pectoral. Probably it
was both. But, more than
either, it was the good, sound
advice the Doctor gave in the
first place. We are here to
serve you in just the, same way,
and we will tell you the medi-
cine for your case or tell you
what medicines to avoid.
Five out of ten of our cor
respondents need doctor
rather than a prepared medi-
cine, and we tell them SO. If
the doctors only knew it, we
al; are working with them every
day. q

Handsome Hands.

What woman do you know who re-
tains all winter the beauty OF her
hands? Not long after the cold wealth.
er comes her skin begins to show that
something is amiss. The hands are
the first to proclaim their grievance,
and they grow so rough that 1t Is al
most impossible to keep them clean.
In spite of manicuring and Of the dai.
ly use Of the finger brush, the nails
are q constant modification and the
finger tips are black and grimy look.
ing. A source Of trouble Is that we all
wear so much wool nowadays. Our
skirts and coats are never of any 9TH
er material, and even for house wear
we have adopted as a favorite the
coarse textured stuff of tweeds, chew
lots, serges and the like.
When the hands rub constantly
against this, the effect is something
like that which results from the use
of coarse wooden mittens-and we all
know how bad they are for the skin.
Since silk and the softer woolens
have gone so completely out of fash
ion the hands have been sore beset.
The only remedy lies in the sugges.
ton that whenever possible the deli.
cate skin should be protected by the
wearing of a fancy silk apron. II may
be black II you prefer, but the aprons
made of white China silk are easily
washed and are dainty to look upon.

How to Wash and Iron Them at
Home.

ROW 70 WASH ana Iron Them az
Home.
After taking down, shake the cur
tains to remove all dirt. Then put
them to soak till next day in tub Of
cold WATERMAN water, IL possible
to which ammonia has been added In
the proportion of tablespoonful to
three gallons.
Next morning squeeze them out OF
this water and put into a tub Of hot
suds. In this they should be well
stirred about; but rubbing must be
avoided, as 1t is liable to break the
thread. II very dirty, they may need
u second. lot of suds.
When all dirt is removed, either
pass them carefully through the
wringer, or squeeze rs dry as posi-
BILE.
Hot starch is best for curtains and
H. needs to be made rather thin. Mix
the dry starch with enough cold wa
ter to moisten it; pour boiling water
on, stirring briskly all the time till
the starch turns clear and transpar-
ent looking; then add an equal guam
tity of hot water to it, and II will
probably be about the right consis.
tency, though peoples ideas as to
how stiff curtains should be differ SO
much that 1t is difficult to give
hard and fast rule.
After starching run the curtains
through the wringer or squeeze as dry
as possible.
Pail gently into shape when hang
ing on the line, leave till nearly dry,
take in, roll up tightly and cover over
in q basket till next day.
The ironing needs to be very care
fully done, or you will break the
threads. Flats must be nice and hot,
but not hot enough to scorch. Rub
them over before beginning with a
bit of white wax wrapped in muslin,
wiping well afterwards with a clean
soft duster.
Iron on the wrong side till thorough
ly dry, using as much pressure as
possible. Fold lightly, so that there
may be no creases.
Some people prefer not to iron cur
tains, because of the danger of catch
ing the fat and tearing them.
In this case the curtains should be
firmly pinned on clean, stretched
sheets, which have been tintacked to
the floor Of room that can be spared
for a day or two. Every little point
must be pulled out and pinned to the
sheet and the curtains must not be
moved until they are thoroughly dry.

Advice to a Visitor.

II you are taken Ill while on a
visit to a friends house, and you can
manage to get away without seriously
injuring your health or distressing
your host or hostess. then pack up
your things and be or. 1t Is always
very uncomfortable to be Ill while on
a visit, except, of course, to relations
you are fond of, or to very intimate
friends; but, II the illness is one
where II would be suicidal to travel,
then all you can do is to resign your
self to circumstances; and, while CIV
ing as little trouble to the servants
and others as possible, set to work to
get well as quickly as you can. Re-
member that nerves have a great part
In all sickness, and II you mean to
get well quickly in all probability
you will.

With a smile which he could hardiy
suppress the doctor asked her whether
there was anything else the matter with
her husband. She said that he was
otherwise all right; he worked diligent.

plain of any aches. But he ceased to
love her and his heart needed cure.
"Why don't you love your wife2' he
asked.
