Why smallpox Is Winter Disease

NV I OK TUSI.
Why smallpox increases i'm winter is ex-
planned by the members of the Health
Board of Philadelphia. One reason is that
heat destroys the virus. as il does also The
vaccine virus The makers OF vaccine virus
direct that ii be kept in an icebox so that
its potency may be unimpaired Some
physicians are careless ABOUT this, and as
Another reason is that the houses OF the
poor in winter are closed so tight that the
atmosphere becomes impure. Next To heat
fresh air is the deadliest enemy OF small
pox virus When fuel is not abundant the
house must be kept closed in order that
the inmates may be warm, and a result
the wholesome elements are replaced by
poisonous exhalations. The effect is two
fold-the general condition OF health is i'm
paired, and the germs thrive In the poisoned
atmosphere.

IMPORTANT
To Know What You are TAX
ing When Using Catarrh
Medicines.

Catarrh is the short route to consump-
tion, and the Importance of early and
judicious treatment OF catarrh, whether
located in the head, throat, or bronchial
tubes, cannot be too strongly empha-
sized.
The list OF catarrh cures is AZ long as
the moral law and the forms in which
they are administered numerous and
confusing, from sprays, inhalers, washes,
ointments, and salves, to powders, liq-
uid and tablets.
The tablet form 10 undoubtedly the
most convenient and the most effective
but with nearly all advertised catarrh
remedies il is almost entirely matter
OF guess work as to what you are taking
into your system, as the proprietors
while making all sorts of claims as to
what their medicines will do, always
keep II a elose secret al TO what they
are.
The success and popularity of the new
catarrh cure, Stuart's Catsrrh Tablets,
is largely because it not only cures ca
tArrh but because catarrh sufferers who
use these tablets know what they are
taking into their systems. Stuart's Ca
tArrh Tablets are composed of Red Gum,
Blood Root and similar valuable and
Antiseptic ingredients, and are pleasant
20 The taste, and being dissolved in the
mouth they take immediate effect upon
the mucous lining Of the throat, nasal
passages and whole respiratory tract.
The cures that Stuart's Catarrh Tab

cases OF oatarrh are little short of re-
marksble, and the advantage of know

lives would be lost
The frantic girls aud boys ran wildly
from door to window seeking some place
OF escape Two panic-stricken boys

meeting instant death.
All this Eugene Beverly saw,
but he saw too. more clearly,
his duty written in letters OF
fire, as it were. He ran the elevator up

He almost choked but his heart beat
high with hope when the elevator des-
cen led loaded with poor working girls
whom he had rescued, The brave boy
went back up three times. Each time
the fire shot out toward him its terrible
arms and death stared him in the face
but he never once wavered Eugene
knew that he would, eventually, have to
give up or die a most awful death,
Then another trip was made. Would
It be his last? MOI Where there is
life there is hope. Almost hundred
girls awaited his return. Another time
he ascended and yet another
His hands were bleeding now and his
clothing scorched. Everybody thought
that it would be certain death for him to
make another journey and all hel their
breath but in his minds eye Engene
saw seven girls waiting for his return to
the second story. He grasped, with the
energy Of one who saw far beyond, the
rope now red with blood. As he started
to ascend, some one called to him, and
his dazed brain but family caught the
sound his already dimmed eyes rested
but for moment on the face OF some
one among the crowd OF excited specta-
tors-his mothers face. His ears were
throbbing and the call seemed to come
from far away, far off. Perhaps, even
then, his Mother in Heaven was calling
to him.
Was Eugene wavering? Not he. Be-
fore the crowd was aware Of it, the peri
lous trip was again made once more the
boy had descended to the lower story
When it was reached. Eugene sank ex-
hausted The crowd rushed toward him
cheering but foremost in it was
Eugene's mother. With sob Of anguish
she took him in her arms, calling
to him with all a mothers love
AMI anxiety in her voice Eugene looked
up into her face and tried to smile
then he gasped and all was over.
Just then the soft white snow began
to fall gently, slowly and all the church
bells began to ring out joyously for it
was midnight A holy hush then fell
upon all hush that comes only on
Christmas night.
The inspiring words. "Peace on earth
good will TO men," seemed to be echoing
from centuries ago and the vibrating
tones found an answering chord in the
heart OF the mother Of our hero, filling
her soul with peace before unknown.
She laid her boy to rest, consoled with
the thought that he was now in Heaven
blending his voice with those that sang
it long, long ago, over the crib in Bethle.

MARION
COUNTY
ROAD TAX

The road poll tax case. which was re-
Gently decided on writ Of review by
Judge Boise, was OF especial interest to
all the road supervisors Of Marion
county. The report OF the decision
given was erroneous, on account OF the
peculiar nature of the decision.
The suit was brought by Road Master
ii. I. Bruce, of Road District No. Is, to
collect So tax from w. f. Dunlap,
The defendant had previously paid
the tax to Street Commissioner j. p.
Frizzell, and this suit tested the law that
allows man to pay his road poll
tax to any road supervisor in the coun-
ty. When the Case was before Judge
O'Donald in the justice court, he held
that the above mentioned law did not
effect the matter, and that the tax should
be paid 10 the road master OF the dis
trict in which man lives
ii. j. Bigger, attorney for Dunlap,
filed a demurrer on account Of technic-
al mistake having been made in the
complaint. The complaint stated that
the defendant, Dunlap WIS under 90
years OF age but omitted
the statement that he was over 2l years
OF age, This demurrer WAS overruled by
Judge o Donald, but sustained by Judge
Boise. This left the mat in a position
that would require another proceeding
10 be instituted against Dunlap, to Sc
cure the payment Of the tax The mat
ter was settled without this suit, h w
ever and the county paid the costs ON
behalf of the supervisor, lstaining Jus
tice o. O'Donald's decree.
