as follows Dissolve one-nalf pound Of
hard soap ia one gallon Of soft boiling
water. add two gallons Of kerosene
or coal oil, and then by means q the
force pump with the spray nozzle re-

minutes BY pumping It back into itself.
Then add to this emulsion nineteen
gallons Of water, stir thoroughly and
use as a spray The important thing
to be noted in the use Of this kerosene
emulsion is that it should be sprayed
just as soon as possible and before the

ed in yesterdays Tribune, proceeded

There were present at the meeting:
Councilmen Fred Phillips, w. j. Smith,
Daniel Calvin and T.. j. Coleman.
These gentlemen spent nearly three
hours in considering the ordinance and
If the amendments which they will rec
ommend tonight are adopted the meas
ure will present a far different appear
ance than when it first saw the light OF
day.
The most important amendment
adopted provides for the striking out Of
practically all of Article VI, which crc-
ates q bureau of fire and provides for
a general reorganization of the fire
department coupled with q provision
providing for the dsbandment OF the
volunteer department. The only Sec
tions which will remain IL this amend
mcnt is adopted make no change in
the present form of administration.
Another amendment adopted pro-
vides for the creation of the office of
delinquent tax collector with a salary
of $500 q year. In the ordinance the
offices Of city treasurer and delinquent
tax collector are combined.
Still another amendment adopted
creates the office OF clerk OF the COM
mon council and increases that Off
ciars salary from $500 to 5000. The
salary Of the plumbing inspector is
raised by another amendment from
$1,000 to $1,000. The other amendments
decided upon were of minor Importance.
II these amendments are adopted to-
night the appointment of a confer
ence committee will be necessitated
the measure having originated in Sc
lect council. The members of the lat
ter branch are satisfied with the or
dinance in its present form. and it is
probable that this conference commit
tee will have a hard job agreeing upon
anything. The chances of getting the
ordinance finally passed before April I
seem to be growing simmer every day.

NO MORE OVERTURES.
Silk Mill Strikers Decide to Cease
Peace Negotiations with Super
intendent Davis.

At a meeting of the executive COM
mittee of the silk mill strikers, held
yesterday morning, it was unanimous
ly decided to send no more committees
to wait upon Superintendent Davis. Of
the Sauquoit mill, and to make no
further ovcrtures for settlement. The
committee also decided to prepare a
full list of their grievances and pub
lsh it i'm the daily press.
This is something which they have
not vet done, as the wage scale they
formulated is the only statement of
any sort yet given out by them. Work
was started on the list yesterday, and
1t will probably be completed today. A
resolution was also passed at the meet
ing announcing that the strike will

ances are adjusted and the original
wage scale granted.
Meetings were held yesterday of the

executive committee was approved.
Tonight an entertainment will be
given at Manley's hall. Dunmore by

Jones is expected to make an address.
The latter arrived in the city Tues
day from Reading, and was in consult
tatior with the strikers yesterday
morning. In the afternoon she left for
Forest City.
A slight disturbance took place last
evening at Petersburg when the loom
fiXers left the mill. One of the men
was followed to his home by large
crowd of strikers and breaker boys,
who had gathered about the premises.
They. loudly hooted and threatened
him, and when his residence was

1t Is all in knowing how.
II is equally true in the use Of medi-
cines. The same remedies we have to-
day have existed for thousands OF
years. but if their existence was known
the knowledge of how to use them was
lacking.
They became valuable to the human
race only when experiment and science
showed the way to use them to get
results.
The grip is an old disease with Il
new name: It is really catarrhal in
character and the usual symptoms are
those of acute catarrh, but the old
time catarrh powders. salves and
sprays do not cure it. neither does the
arplicatio Of antlseptics through an
inhaler give anything more than re-
lief for q short time.
The antiseptics are all right; they
will kill the germs OF catairh and grip
&c they are applied rightly. but their
lccal application to the nose and throat
avail little because the germs are in

TEN.
StuartS Catarrh Tablets contain
many of these same antiseptics, that
are used in sprays and inhalers. but
instead of applying them TO the in
| famed membranes of the nose and
throat, they are taken into the stom-
ach and thus reach the blood. the real
| seat of the disease and drive out the
| Infectious germs through the natural
channels of the bowels and kidneys.
In otncr words Stuart's Catarrh Tab
| lets reach the cause of the mischief,
| instead of the merely local symptoms.
rho remarkable success OF these tab
| let's in curing grip catarrh and throat
and lunG troubles is because they drive
| the catarrhal poison from the system
and the rose and throat become clear
of the excessive secretion of mucus.
| which causes the hawking. splitting
| and gagging, because the secretion is
not supplied from healthy blood.
Two years ago, Stuart's Catarrh
Tablets were unknown but today have
become so popular through positive
merit that druggists everywhere In
the United States. Canada and Great
Britain now sell them.
