The Retail Merchants Protective asso-
citation of Jermyn and Maytield held a
special meeting on Thursday evening to
take action regarding the request of the
local mine workers to boycott the men
remaining at work at the col!ieries, From
the discussion that ensued 1t was evident
that while the merchants sympathize
with the miners in their struggle for
rights they would not be justified in res
fusing to accommodate patrons of long
business relations. The subject was dis
cussed at considerable length after which
the following resolution was unanimously
adopted: THAT 1t be the sense OF this as
sociation that we continue to sell to all
our regular trade. and not sell to imported
men. (Signed) Retail Merchants Protec-

POOR BOARD,

The meeting last night was enlivened
by letter Attorney Butler received
from the steward of the Cambria county
almshouse at Ebensburg, to the effect
that Patrick Grier, aged 81 years, had
been admitted to that institution. The
steward in his letter said that Grier
was suffering from lumbago, and ex-
pressed his thanks that Grier was not
a charge on them. He concluded by
requesting advice at once what they
shall do in the case. Grier continues
to claim Carbondale as his home.
Attorney Butler was instructed to
write and deny that Grier has n resi-
dence in this city. Attorney Butler was
instructed to wait on Poor Tax Col
lector Barrett and try and effect set
tlement of the old duplicate he has in
hand, the time of which expired sew
eral months ago. Secretary Williams
made report of the appearance before
council in reference to securing the
vacant room on the second floor to hold
their meetings in, instead of their pres
ent quarters on the third floor.
The usual collection of bills were
ordered paid. The bill sent in from
Emergency hospital was adverted to-
but nothing was done with it except to
again lay it on the table. Secretary
Williams was instructed to send a bill
to the Forest City poor board for ex-
pense incurred by the board in the case
of Mr.. Monroe recently.

at all. He says, further, that there
are no charges to be paid in advance
and hopes that no one who needs a
small temporary loan will hesitate to
take advantage Of the companys offer
because Of any fear that the rates
might be too high. They have been
made so low that even the poorest
can easily afford to get loan.
The furniture is left with the bor-
rover, and there is absolutely no pub
licity. for the company realizes that
that is just what the public are most
anxious to avoid.
AS for the payments, each borrower
Is permitted to say just when 1t would
be most convenient to pay. Most of
those who, have taken out loans so far
have preferred to pay in small month
ly instalments. Some pay by the week.
but in no case is the borrower COM
PEELED to pay all at once.
1t will be noticed at once how much
better it is to get loan this way than
by pawning things. With this plan
you have the use Of the goods while
You also have the money.
The company intends to make loans
anywhere within twenty-five miles Of
Scranton. All applications should be
made to the Scranton Loan Guarantee
Co., 207 Wyoming avenue, near Spruce
street.

COST OF FOOD.
Grape-Nuts VS.. White Bread, etc.

A family figured carefully on the cost
of food, taking into consideration the
strength and health that Grape Nuts
furnished. The report is interesting.
I'VE first took up Grape-Nuts because
1t agreed with me so we'll. I was suf-
fering from dyspepsia that medicine
did not relieve. I frequently laughed
at the idea when some of my friends
told of the use of Grape Nuts; however,
one day wife bought a package, and
we found it good and it agreed with me.
"We were accustomed to using white
bread and oats, wheat or barley mushes
boiled from two to four hours. We con-
sidered Grape-Nats too expensive, but I
noticed that when had breakfast of
Grape-Nuts / felt fine. and other days
when white bread and other cereals
were used l felt weak and bloated.
zone day about six months ago said
to wife: 4 am satisfied that Grape
Nuts is the thing that makes me feel
better in between the blue SPELLS Then
we sat down and figured awhile on the
cost of living and came to the con-
clusion that we could live better and
happier on fifteen cents worth of Grape
Nuts than on twenty-five cents worth
OF white bread or cooked at home
cereals. You see, four teaspoonfuls of
Grape-Nuts furnish more strength to
work on than large quantities of other
food, SO we started on Grape-Nuts in
earnest, using 1t every morning, and a
wonderful change has come over me.
II am gaining In weight every day.
Never have any Of the old bloated feel
ings. Feel strong and well and can en-
the old diet. and this result Is all with
out any doctor or drugs at all. but
directly from using Grape Nuts" Name

RAIN AND LIGHTNING.
Wild Storm of Last Night-several
Places Struck

1t was a brief. but wild storm that
visited Carbondale between and s
o'clock last evening, the most severe
disturbance of the summer. The light
ming flashed with fearful vividness, the
rain poured down as in a cloudburst
and the wind blew with the force of a
mild tornado.
Lightning struck a number of places,
though no serious damage was done.
Fifteen telephones on one of the Car
bondale Telephone company's switch
boards We're burned out. The roof of
Males grocery store, in the Keystone
block, was struck and a number Of
bricks torn out. divers grocery store,

house, soaring the occupants, but doing
no damage.

BOYS FIRE A BARN.
Their Carelessness and Mischievous-
ness End in Disaster.

A combination Of carelessness and
mischievousness on the part of a num-
ber of lads, scholars at the South Main
street school, was responsible for the
loss by fire of the barn at the rear Of
the property of P. F. Moran, on the
brow of the Main street hill.
The lads made their way into the
barn early yesterday afternoon and
We're there only a short time when the
barn was found to be ablaze. The fire
was, presumably, started by the lads
smoking in the barn, which was filled
with lumber, household goods and the
like. By the time the Columbias re-
sponded and had stream on, the barn
was beyond saving. Everything it con-
tained was destroyed. TIE loss was
several hundred dollars.
The boys have been in the habit of
entering the barn, despite repeated
warnings to keep off the premises.
