Repairsmen are Very Busy.

Trackmen are busy repairing the d.
L. & ". railroad, which was very
badly washed from Mahoning creek to
the upper end of the borough. The
gravel. broken stone. etc, laid in the
bed of the railroad was nearly every
where washed out from between the
ties, with the result that the road bed
is not as secure as desirable. After
the flood hundreds of tons Of ballast
were found lying along the track be-
tween Ferry street aud the station.
Conditions in the Borough are very
nearly parallel OF what exists all
along the line where the track was
submerged. Tho noxt few months will
evidently be very busy ones for the
reuaiTsmpn.

A Model Lunch Rnnm.

In one of Boston's busiest streets, O
new lunch room for women has recently
been opened. A printed notice stated
that lunch and food-supply rooms would
be opened under the combined direction
of the laboratory kitchen OF Cambridge
and the Women's educational and indus
trial union OF Boston.
There are three objects stated In the cir
cular for which the rooms were estab-
lished: First, to provide simple
luncheon of excellent quality and moder-
ate price for downtown shoppers and
workers; second, to offer salesroom for
breads from the laboratory kitchen and
for certain other cooked foods of standard
quality; and, third [shades of Mrs.
Grundyll to serve as a central kitchen for
Incorporation of food that shall be de-
livered hot at the homes of consumers.
II your curiosity is aroused by this an
nouncement, won't you join Mrs. Grundy
and visit the new lunch rooms? AT the
street door Is a little glass case containing
shining copper and brass pitchers and
plates, bunch of wild flowers fresh
every morning, and card which invites
the passer-by to take the elevator and
visit the lunch rooms.
The elevator takes one to the top of the
building into the lunch room itself. A
more attractive eating place it would be
difficult to and. The chairs and tables are
OF the carts and crafts order, stained
green, and at the windows are boxes Of
Towering plants and draperies Of gsoft
oriental colorings.
The little round tables are spread with
cloths OF brownish cream-eolored linen,
and the walls are tinted In the same neu.
trail tone, with here and there tier of
green shelves holding candle sticks and
vessels OF copper or brass. The mattresses
are in white with dainty white Prise lila
caps and kerchiefs.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local appliances, as they cannot reach the
diseased portion of the ear. There Is only one
way to cure deafness, and that Is by constitn-
tional remedies. Deafness Is caused by an in
famed condition of the mucous lining of the
EustachAn Tube. When this tube Is tnhamed
you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hear
ing, and when 1t is entirely closed, Deafness is
the result and unless the Inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to Its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out OF ten are caused by Catarrh,
which IS nothing but an infiamed condition of
the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any
case of Deafness (eaused by eatarrh) that can
not be cured by Halls Catarrh Cure. Send for
circulars, free.

Miss Emery's In the afternoon. Both

The room was tastefuily decorated with
ferns, daisies, buttercups, cut flowers, and
yellow and white bunting. The class
coIors were yellow and white, and the
class motto Labor conquers alp.
The carefully selected programme, and
the fine rendering OF the same, showed in
some small way the painstaking and
perseverance Of the teacher, Miss Frances
Hurley, to whom the class, as token OF
its appreciation, presented pocket
book, containing $500 in gold. The
assistant, Miss Georgia Foster, was pre-
sented with silver pin.
