We want to ask the business men

We want to ask the business men
a question. How many of you can
afford TO be burned out? That is
the proposition in nut shell.
How many of you can afford to
run the chance Of losing all your
property by fire without taking
some step toward protection. We
venture to say that there are not
more than two or three men in
town who could again replace their
stock Of goods in case they were
burned out. Many here have the
earnings Of a lifetime invested in
their business and would be com
PEELED to resort to day labor il they
were TO suffer its loss by FIRE. Very
few carry insurance to cover more
than hall the value of their prop.
erty and some carry scarcely any,
because the rate is SO high, trust

ness to protect them from loss.
Again We say, can you AFFORD it2
Can you afford TO risk the loss OF
your property without taking every
precaution to save it5 You know
you can not. There lie not 3 bust.

A man named Cunningham was
arrested Sunday at Culdesac and
fined $i1.15 for playing his violin
ia his house near the church and
thereby disturbing the services.
Cunningham was asked to desist
in his musical attempts until after
church but didn'tfeel that way SO
the minister and one Of the church
members swore out a complaint
against him. We wonder what
would have been the result if the
playing and singing in church had
disturbed Cunningham's devotions
in his home. But perhaps that is
another story.

The Genuine VS. Counterfsits.

The genuine is always better than q
counterfeit. but the truth of this state
ment Is never more forcibly realized or
more thoroughly appreciated than when
you compare the genuine DeWitt's
Witch Hazel Salve with the many coun-
terfeits and worthless substitutes that
are on the market. w. s. Ledbetter, of
Shreveport, La, says: "After using
numerous other remedies without bene-
fit, one box of DeWitt's Witch Hazel
Salve cured me-" For blind, bleeding,
itching and protruding piles no remedy
is equal to DeWitt's Witch Hazel Salve.

SACRED RELIC
Has Performed a Great Miracle and
Healed a Helpless Para
Eagle.

Thousands of Roman Cathollcs croWueo
the little chapel In the basement Oh the
Church of st. Jean sBaptiste, on e Sew
enty- sixth street, Manhattan, to-day, ana
offered up their prayers for the sick, the
halt and the blind to the patron saint OF
the church, st. Anna
Among the intensely devout who knelt at
the altar and who had fairly to be driven
away was Mrs. Madigan Of Bensonhurst.
Mrs. Madigan has been the past three
years been a constant attendant; at the
novena, in behalf of her 6-year-old daugh-
ter Margie, who for four years OF her short
life has been a paralytic. For the first
time in four years the girl was able to
walk to-day without the use of a brace
for her tiny legs, which were so slender
that they hardly looked as tho they could
bear the weight of her body.
After one of her many trips to the altar
Mrs. Madigan, whose face was radiant
with Joy, said when questioned regarding
the miracle which .fs said to have been
performed In the case Of her daughter: II
am confident that my prayers are about to
be answered, and that before the close of
this novena our little girl will be restored
to us as sound of limb as ever. For four
years she has been a paralytic, and for
nine months Of this time she was confined
to her bed, so helpless that she could moi
even turn on her side or move her limbs
without assistance.
-Four years. ago. while playing in the
grass in Sullivan county, Margie: was thor
| oily chilled by the dampness, and in conse-
quence her entire nervous system was
wrecked. Six doctors, two of whom were
specialists, after attending our little
girl, told us there was no hope for
her and that she must remain cripple for
the rest of her life. With hope almost
dead in my heart,-I then came to this
chapel and had the sacred relic Of st. Ann
| rubbed over my little ones body and then
prayed st. Ann for help.
Little by little Margie improved until
| last night, for the first time since she be.
came afflicted we were enabled to removt
| the braces from both of her feet and she
was able to walk alone. OF course was
overjoyed.",.
Mrs. Madigan took her place at the foo
of the line and patiently awaited her turr
to once again kneel at the altar and kiss
the sacred relic. The little one walked a
her side and seemed as devout as was he
mother and as confident that soon sht
would romp and play without hindrance.

Cent Mile Rate.
AS we expected the Great Western road
has made an official denial, thru General
Manager p. G.. Stohr, of the story, that
1t intended to establish fiat 2-cent rate
In the territory of the Western Passenger
association. Mr.. Stohr says that the road
has voted in favor Of the 2,00O-mile mile
age book to be sold at $50 with $40 re-
bate when used, making the rate cents
q mile.
But this form Of mileage has been APP
proved by the Omaha, Milwaukee. Wis
consins Central Burlington, Northern Pa
cific, Illinois Central, Minneapolis & St.
Louis, Chicago & Alton and several other
lines. Some foundation for the 2-cent a
mile story might have been found in the
short line rate made by the Great Western
between the twin cities and Omaha and
the twin cities and Sioux City. This has
reduced the rate to Omaha by $1.6O and
has forced the other roads to meet the
cut, which practically makes accent
rate.
