COunterfeit1rA,

There is nothing which Uncle Sam
protects with greater care than his
currency Because Uncle Sans money
is good there are always people ready
to counterfeit it. and for these peoplt.
Uncle Sam has a special body of Sc
cret service detectives always on the
watch. The most dangerous counter
feits are those which most closely imi-
tate the original, and to arrest the
makers of dangerous counterfeits the
United States spares no efforts and no
expense. 1t seems a pity that the
United States government could not
extend it's surveillance of counter
letters to those who counterfeit whole
some foods, reliable medicines and
other articles necessary to the health
OF the public.

Burning Head.

Star City, Ark, May 26th.-A very
remarkable case has just occurred
here.
Mr.. w. H. McFalls has been suffer
ing severely for two years with an all
ment that puzzled the doctors and
everybody. The trouble seemed to be
all in his head, which had burning
sensation all the time.
Sometimes this burning pain in the
head would be worse than at other
times, but it never left him.
At last he tried a new remedy called
Dodd's Kidney Pills and was agreeably
surprised to find that the burning
gradually disappeared.
An attack Of La Grippe has laid him
up for the last few weeks, but Dodd's
Kidney Pills have banished his old
trouble entirely.
His son George used a few of the
Pills which his father did not need and
they have done him 80 much good
that he says he would not take ten
cents pill for the few he still has left.

Books Which Will Make Good Summer Read

These are quiet days at the public

green fields, the open air, the pulsat-

Nature to the artificial life Of books.
and not more than one-tbird as many
books ave read as month or 80 ago.
The greater share Of the books called
for these days is fiction. though some
biography is being read.
The following list of books that will
make good vacation reading is given

SOME LOCAL
BEAUTY SPOTS,
Pencil Sketches of Pretty Places In or
About Akron.

After leaving the powerhouse above
Cuyahoga Falls, and proceeding in the
direction of Cleveland on an A. B. & G.
car, passengers soon reach a point from
which they have good view, for
many miles, of the opposite side of the
Cuyahoga Valley. Given a clear day
and sunshine, no finer view than the
one to be had here will
be found in days of travel, and hum
dreds of travellers over the A. B.
g. G. take this route largely because
Of the beautiful scenery visible from
the car windows, which is shut
out by the surrounding hills when the
traveller takes the steam line.
The country west of the Cuyahoga,
almost to the waters edge, is we'll
farmed. Every field is in high state
of cultivation; and in the distance, rem
dered smaller and smaller, the fields
look like mere gardens in a great es-
tate. The fences are dark lines against
the green of waving meadows or the
brown of stubble fields or plowed
ground. The regular criss-crossing of
the fences resembles a big picture;
cows and other stock are mere dots on
the landscape; trees look like the kind
which come in the Christmas toys of
the children, and the houses and barns
are like those built of blocks.
Over all, on good many days, the
sun beams brightly and summer clouds
float lazily, and the watcher goes back
to the days of childhood, when fairy
land was reality.
There are places along the A. 3. &
c. from which the country can be
seen like this, for at least ten miles,
till where haze marks the junction
of land and sky, way over in another
township, where the tiller of the soil.

not wear suspenders have, that the
trousers are dragging down. To any
one who has watched a sailor hitchipg
up his trousers until they are turned
up at the bottom, the wherefore of this
will be apparent.
Some of the Akron stores purchased
white pique and mercerized vests for
autumn wear, but in an injudicious mo.
ment displayed them to some of their
patrons and these waistcoats proved
so attractive that the men would not
be put off until fall and the white
waistcoat grows in popularity from
day to day. 1t Is cool, clean-Iooking
garment and is rendered especially at.
tractive by the large pearl buttons. not
quite as large as saucers, with which
they are one and all adorned.
The pretty suits for little boys which
can now be found in the stores are
veritable God-send to the mothers of
the little fellows who formerly spent
many wearisome hours designing suits
for the little fellows, who have a fac.
ulty for going through clothes at a
terrifying rapid rate.
The prettiest things in wool garments
are the Norfolk suits for boys from 2
to 10 years old. which are made of
English homespuns, cassimeres che
Viots and fancy worsteds. 1t is the
wash suits that brings relief to the
minds of the mothers. The prettiest
OF these are the sailor suits made of
cotton cheviOts, duck and cambric.
with embroidered shields, and the
greater share of them have a cord and
whistle attached to the collar which
insures their popularity with the-youth-
ful wearers. In honor of the corona
ton Of England's King some of the
shields are embroidered with crown
design, but these are not meeting with
great favor from independent, free
dom-loving young America.
A novelty In little boys trousers are
those of white and tan duck made
tennis style and now with white
waists and sailor hats. The children's
suits are all reasonable In price.

LETTER CARRIERS
CANINE FRIENDS
Dogs Become Attached to Men In Gray, Some
Of Them Very Painfully So.

Not the least of the troubles which
confront the mail carrier as he goes
over his route twice every day, save
Sunday, Is cross dog, yet his friends
among the members of the canine tribe
will outnumber his enemes ten to one.
The wise carrier attempts to cultivate
the friendship OF the dogs at the homes
where he delivers mail Usually he is
met half way and the dogs become
warm friends of the man in gray.
1T is not unusual for dog to meet
the carrier on his rounds" remarked
an official at the postotfice to Demo
crat reporter one day this week. "The
dog learns to know what time the car
rier will appear and at that time he
VIII come several blocks away from his
home to meet his friend He will frisk
about as if he had just met long lost
relative and trot along with the carrier
over the whole route even to the post
office. The postoffice seems to have an
attraction for dogs, but when they
come into the building we administer
the switch treatment and they do not
bother us again. Instead of coming
to the office after the treatment has
been administered, they stop a block
away. and trot back to their homes. In
the afternoon the dog will meet the
carrier again at the same place as in
the morning, and the performance will
be repeated.
Again, there are dogs that are not
so bold. They will wait at home until
the carrier comes. then after going
with him for a block, will run back
nome. But they are always around
when the mail man comes"
"Then there is the enemy of the mail
man, the dog that is cross and con.
tinues cross despite all the efforts of
the carrier to lave him for friend.
Akron daily Democrat. [volume] (Akron, Ohio) 1892-1902, 1902-06-21

This class seems to have been natur-
ally vicious, and the carrier is always
on the watch for him. A cane or n
stone-in fact anything that can be
picked up-is used as Il weapon against
the cross dog. 1t In not always the
large dog which troubles the carrier.
More often it is the little terrier whose
greatest enjoyment Is to sneak up be-
hind the mail man, snatch a piece of
gray out of his trousers and go scam
pering away, leaving the carrier an
incomplete pants leg, and in some
cases the imprint of sharp teeth on
his leg"
The government has made provision
however, for cross dogs, and the car
rler is amply protected. When there
is vicious dog OH his route, he reports
the case to Superintendent of City De-
livery George Schick. The owner re-
ceives letter from Mr.. Schick, stat
ing that if the dog is not chained or
some other method is not resorted to
to keep the animal from troubling the
carrier the delivery will be stopped.
But the cases are few in which the
delivery Is stopped because of a cross
dog, for the prospect of coming to the
postoffice after mail, when it is deliv.
cred to the next door neighbor, is not
pleasant.
When a arrier is transferred to an
other route and new man is put on,
the one who feels the change most is
the friendly dog that has accompanied
the old carrier time and again. At first
the dog seems lonely and uots back to
his home when his old friend fails to
appear. but after week he seems to
feel that he has Travelled his last round
with the old carrier. and becomes
friendly with the new man and soon
goes with him as if no change had
taken place.
