Another Proof That II Pays.

What pays? Why, advertising in this

to show if you have an article of real merit
like Cascarets, advertise it properly and
literally and let all the people know about
it, it is sure to bring big results. Readers
who have never tried this famous remedy
are urged to try it, because in this busy

FOUR ADDITIONAL CLERKS
Will Be Added to Working Force at
the Postoffice-They Will Go
on Duty July l.

The great volume of business done
at the poStOfiicc has necessitated the
addition of four employees to the local
force. Postmaster Il. Fl. Ripple re-
peatedly solicited the Washington au-
thorities for an extra allotment of
clerks and yesterday morning came a
miSsive from First Assistant Post
master General W. NJ. Johnson grant,
ing four more clerks. They will be
installed in their respective positions
July !, which is the beginning of the
postal fiscal year.
Four present substitutes at the office
will receive the berths. They are:
Royal Taft, Michael Maloney, William
j. Elias and Julia A. White. This in
creases the working force to twenty
three employees. The business tran
sacted by the postotiice daily assumes
larger proportions and the need of a
larger number of hands was severely
felt Last month the business tram
sacted at the postoflice broke all pre-
vious records, it amounting to $1S,9o9.
January's record of $1S1SC constituted
the previous highest figures. In March,
1900, the business amounted tn sl6O24,
II gain this year of over two thousand
dollars.

Accuses Her Uncle.

Henry Fenwick IL well-knoWn resi-
dent Of Carbondale. 1niddle-aged and
married. was on trial yesterday before
Judge John =. Kelly. on a charge of
being the father of the four months
old boy of Miss Mary Wilmington, also
of Carbondale. who Is his Wife'S niece.
She stated that Fenwck was intimate
with her in Ca,bondale in October, 1899.
in South Clinton. Wayne county, on
November Is of that year and on Feb
rllary 20. 1900. He claimed the rights
Of a guardian over her, she said, and
when she went over to Wayne county
TO work he followed her there on sew
cral occasions and compelled her to
submit to him. Her child was born on
December % last. Miss Wilmington
says she is twenty-one years of age.
The defense is a denial of the charge
and the allegation that Miss Whiting
ton is actual ted by spite because Fen
wick complained to her father about
her wayward conduct and suggested
that she be placed in some reform in
Stitution. 1T is alleged that this is the
second child she has given birth to. and
that she was unduly intimate with a
number of young men in Carbondale
and Wayne county during the period
she fixes as the times of her trans
Gressions with Fenwick.
Mrs. George Coles. with whom Miss
Wilmington lived as a. servant during
he early part of 1900, said she saw her
servant come out Of the room OF
Charles Coles. the brother of the Wit
ness husband, in the latter part of
January of that year. 1t was about &

tington was attired in her slumber

r., s. Faatz, manager of the Union
Painless Dentistry establishment at 300
Iackawanna avenue, was, by direction
Of Judge Fl. M. Edwards, yesterday re-
turned guilty of illegally practicing
dentistry. A rule was granted at the
same time to show cause why q new
trial should not be granted.
Faatz was arrested by County Dctec-
tive W. w. Phillips at the Instance OF
the Lacllawanna and Lnzcrnc County
Dental association, and at the trial
yesterday, C.. r.. Daniels, attorney for
that body, assisted District Attorney
w. r.. Lewis in prosecuting the case.
Faata was defended by Attorneys John
j. Murphy and james O'Mallcy. The
commonwealth showed that Faatz Is
not registered in the prothonotary' S
office as required by law: that he is
not q graduate of any dental college.
and that he has never been examined
by the state board of dental cNatnin-
erS
The defense was that l'antz has been
engaged in dental work since 1893. haN-
ing for several years been employed i'll

Wyoming avenue. Because of the fact
I nat he was actively practicing dent

Big TAX LEVY PROBABLE.
City's Revenue Likely to Be Cut
Down and Its Expenses Have
Increased-Floating Debt.

Unless some new sources of revenue
are discovered and taken advantage of,
the city is likely to find itself sorely
pnched for money next year, accord
ing to the calculations of City Clerk
Lavelle, and the veteran city clerks
calcula tions are, as rule, not very
wide of the mark.
A. new valuation cannot be made
unit, 1908, AIr. Lavclle says and I'M
der the new charter the tax levy for
general city purposes cannot exceed
ten mills on the dollar of valuation.
While the valuation cannot be raised
and the tax levy cannot be increased
beyond the limit that now obtains,
the assessments against second and
third class properties must be reduced
one-fourth and one-half respectively
and Mr.. Lavelle's figures indicate that
the reduction in revenue resulting
from this will not be less than $4,000.
Then again, he figures that u goodly

took out licenses this year did so with

| decrease of thi ~ in the number OF

revenue amounting to $26400.
These reductions will mean that the

This amounts at present to s2OS.'4S.1s,

TO INSURE HONEST COUNT
REPUBLICANS WILL HAVE
DEMOCRATS WATCHED.
Any Attempt at Chicanery VIII Re-
suit i'm Arrests Being Made by
S~ecret-Service Men.

1t is quite safe TO say that, however city
elections may have been carried on in the
past, the outcome of the present one will
be decided by an honest count of the bal
lots which are in the boxes when the polls
close at 8 o'clock next Tuesday evening.
The Republicans have no fear that the
Democrats will win this time by any of the
methods they are charged Will having en-
plOyed at the last city election. They have
not only 15 honest Republican inspectors
to guard their interests this time, but in adj
dition will have the same number of
watchers to assist in keeping tab on the
ballots when they are taken from the
boxes.
To the ordinary mind these precautions
might seem sufficient to insure an honest
election. but. in view of the experience of
two years ago. the Republicans have added
one more little precautionary measure
which will guarantee an honest count of
the ballots or Will result disastrously to
those who attempt to win by chicanery.
This extra safeguard is in the form of fiji
teen of the best secret service men that
could be obtained i'm the United States, VINO
will arrive in this city to-day and will at
once report for duty to a member of the
Republican city committee. The men will
receive instructions to devote their atten-
ton to the men in the Democratic party
who are known to lave participated in the
scheme which resulted in the defeat of Mr..
Bookwalter two years ago. If any of these
men are detected I'm the commission OF any
unlawful acts they will be arrested at once.
