500 Reward, 500,

The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all its stages and
that is Catarrh. HALLS Catarrh Cure
is the only positive cure now known to
the medical fraternity. Catarrh being
a constitutional disease, requires a
constitutional treatment. Halls Ca
tarrh Cure is taken internally, acting
directly on the blood and mucous sur
faces of the system, thereby destroying
the foundation of the disease, and
giving the patient strength by building
up the constitution and assisting nature
in doing its work. The proprietors have
SO much faith in its curative powers,
that they offer one Hundred Dollars
for any case that it fails to cure. Send
for list of testimonials.

Rarometric Bees.

Whoever observes these interesting
insects finds 1t easy enough to foretell
exactly the kind of weather to be ex-
pected. At least this Is the opinion Of
many raisers of bees.
Generally the bee stays at home
when rain is In the air. When the sky
is simply dark and cloudy, these busy
workers do not leave their dwelling all
at once. A few go out first, as though
the queen had sent out messengers to
study the state of the atmosphere. The
greater number remain on observation
until the clouds begin to dissipate, and
IL Is only then that the battalions en-
tire rush out in search of their nectar.
A bee never goes out In a fog, because
1t Is well aware that dampness and
cold are two fearsome, redoubtable
enemies. We do not mean, however,
that the bee is meteorologist in the
absolute sense Of the word. Its clever
ness consists in never being taken I'M
awares, for it possesses untiring vigil
lance. Often one may observe the sud-
den entrance of bees into the hive
when a dense cloud hides the sun and
even though the rain Is not In evidence.

Changed Times.

Times have changed indeed from the
time when Sydney Smith complacently
observed that the United States had
so much wilderness clearing to do that
1t might well take it's literature. learn
Ing and luxury in the bulk from Eng
lish factories.
"Why," he had asked. SHOULD the
Americans write books when a six
weeks passage brings them, in their
own tongue, our sense, science and gen.
ius in bales and hogsheads? Prairies,
steamboats,, gristmills, are their nat
ural objects for centuries to come"
We might almost reverse this and
ask, "Why should the English feel i'll
at ease when six days passage brings
them our sense, science and genius?"
For the time at least the Rev. Sgd
ney Smiths chief notoriety seems to
be that he was the author of certain
observations whose truthfulness has
proved as brief as it was bitter.-Har-
per's Weekly.

Influenza

1t Is very well known that the IN
huenZa Is not an exclusively modern
complaint, but | am not sure whether
curious reference to 1t by Bower, the
continuation of Fordun's chronicle. has
been noted. Writing of the year 1920
he says that among those who died In
Scotland that year were Sir Henry st.
Clair, earl of Orkney; Sir James Doug
las of Dalkeith. Sir William de Aber-
nethy, Sir William de st. Clair, Sir Will
liam Cockburn and many others, all by
"that infirmity whereby not only great
men, but innumerable quantity Of the
commonalty, persisted, which was vul-
carly termed lie Quhew lie Quhew a
vurgaribus dicebaturl" Bower, XIV,
32) Now, "quh" in Scottish texts usu-
ally represents the sound Of "wh"
(properly aspirated) Therefore 1t
seems that In the fifteenth century the
influenza was known as "the whew,"
just as it is known in the twentieth
century as ''the fiue."
/ have refrained from quoting at
length Bowers explanation of the
cause of the epidemic, but there seems
little doubt that the disease was iden-
tical with that with which we are so
grievously familiar. - Notes and Que

Read IL in His Newspaper.

George Schaub, a well known Ger
man citizen of New Lebanon, Ohio, is
a constant reader of the Dayton Volks-
zeitung. He knows that this paper
aims to advertise only the best in its
columns, and when he saw Chamber
lain's Pain Balm advertised therein
for lame back, he did not hesitate in
buying bottle of it for his wife, who
for eight weeks had suffered with the
most terrible pains in her back and
could get no relief. He says: "After
using the Pain Balm for a few days
my wife said to me, feel as though
born anew and before using the entire
contents of the bottle the unbearable
pains had entirely vanished and she
could again take up her household dut-
les" He is very thankful and hopes
that all suffering likewise will hear of
her wonderful recovery. This valuable
liniment is for sale by Wangler Bros.

Wounded Number Three.
Chicago, Aug. 12-One man was
killed, two persons were fatally in
jured and the lives of score or more
of men and women were imperiled by
an explosion in ''levee" saloon last
night. The rear of the building was
wrecked. The police and firemen, who
were quickly at the scene, sent the in
jured to the emergency hospital, and
the others who were in the place, in
GLIDING fifteen or twenty women, were
taken to police headquarters. where
they were held for awhile, but later re-
leased.
The persons injured were George Nc
Cornell, cOachman, and a woman
known as Ruby Fox. They were taken
from a wine room in the rear of the
place. At the hospital Mcconnell died.
Further in the rear the police found
the body of James Alfano, whose head
and one hand had been blown off.
George Little, the proprietor, believes
that the explosion was an act Of re-
venge. Last week his saloon was fire.
quented by policeman detailed to
watch place across the street, which
was raided later in the week, nineteen

he had followed the pair to the saloon.

DID 1T ALL HIMSELF
Winters Alone Robbed the seiby smeIter
Money Recovered.


San Francisco, Aug. 12.-Jack Win
tiers, who was arrested on suspicion of
having committed the theft of $2SO,000
worth of gold bullion from the Selby
Smelling works, confessed Saturday
that he, unaided. carried out the rob-
berry. He then took the officers to q
point in the bay near lne smelling
works where he had sunk his plumber,
and after working in the water up to
his neck for over an hour recovered
Sal 900 of the bullion. The finding of
the remainder Is believed to be only
the matter of a careful search of the
waters at the place indicated by Win
tiers.
The prisoner had been subjected to
merciless sweating for nearly three
days without showing signs of weaken
ing. Finally the strain, the confident
assertions Of the officers that they had
a good case against him and the fear
of an excessive prison sentence that
would deprive him of cnance to enjoy
the proceeds of the crime told upon
him, and he sent for superintendent
kopp, Of the smelling works, who, he
said. was his only friend, and confessed
to him.
1t is understood that the robber has
been promised not only his liberty but
$4,000 in cash for giving up. officers
say 1t would have been impossible to
convict him on testimony 'sweated"
out of him.

why We Bathe.

Professor Vivian Lewes, at the Lon
don institution, recently furnished the
following answer to the question,
"Why do we bathe?' Twenty-eight
miles of sweat glands in our skin are
discharging 26 ounces Of water per day
and leaving upon the outer surface of
the skin full ounce of solid matter.
These are aided by the oil glands of the
hair, which facilitate the adherence of
external dirt. Hence the refreshing
character of the morning bath and the
necessity for grease absorbing alkalies
In soap.
