AS THE LAW DECIDES.

Failure of leaders to perform their
duty and remove loose coal hanging in
mine, which renders the place un-
safe for other employees to work in, is

The owner of the building required

WHILE He WAS WORKING.
The Barber RECALLED His Victim with
an Illustrative Instance of
Ignorance.

The barber tucked towel under a
customers chin and then cleared his
thT pat, relates the Philadelphia Press.
~ victim--I mean a customer of mine, .
he began, told me a story the other day
which illustrates to my mind, at least,
that some men really don't know the diff
ference between patent medicine and
Schuylkill water. 1t was this way:
This customer of mine had a friend
who had great deal of trouble with his
hair 1t was all the time falling out. He
asked all his friends what he could get
to keep it in. Most of them suggested
that he get basket but finally one of
them told him of patent medicine.
so the man whose hair was bothering
him got bottle of the medicine and dis
covered that it was dark brown sticky
stuff that he was to rub on his hair five
times a day. He tried it the first day,
and it appeared to do good but the sec
ond day some one got there first, and
emptying the bottle of medicine, filled it
up with sarsaparilla And all day long
that poor man rubbed the soft drink on
his hair and never noticed the difference.
But he did notice, though, that there was
an unusually large number of flies swarm
ing about his head. Bay rum?"

DR.. Williamson swears.

Yorktown, Ark, Jan. lSth-Last week
a statement was published from Leland
Williamson, NJ. D., of this place, to the
effect that Dodd's Kidney Pills are the
best medicine for all Kinney Diseases and
that he uses them with uniform success
in his daily practice.
No one who knows DIR. Williamson will
doubt for a moment the complete truth
of his fearless declaration, but to COM
pletely clinch the matter in the minds of
those who may not have the pleasure of a
personal acquaintance with this celebrated
physician, DIR. Williamson has appeared
before Mr.. III. e. Greene, j. z. for Mont
gomery county, and made a sworn state
ment.
In this sworn statement the doctor has
cited number of cases which have been
completely cured by Dodd's Kidney Pills.
Here is case No. L:
Henry Hall, Sr., age As. an American,
attacked with Malaria Haematuria, or
Swamp Fever, temperature ranged from
1Ol to 105, highly coated tongue, consti..
pated bowels, hemorrhage or passage of

fiammation and congested condition. of
Kidneys and to render the urine bland
and non-irritatine. Recovery complete
after two months treatment of the Pills"

Brittle Rubber; Elastic Lend.

While liquid air has not proven it
self the wonderful power which it was
claimed to be at the start, it has found
other fields in which it's usefulness
cannot be questioned, and, instead of
driving machinery, it has come to pc
used in the treatment of certain dis
eases. 1t is still the subject of a great
deal OF experiment in the laboratory,
and has recently been used in conjunc-
ton with that new wonder, radium,
serving to prove new theories in re-
gard to the latter. The lay mind will,
however, probably be more interested
in the action of liquid air on two sub
stances much more common than ra-
dunn, namely, lead and rubber. When
the latter is immersed in liquid air it
loses its elasticity and becomes brittle,
and il dropped to the floor breaks like
glass. Drop a ball of lead into the
LIQUID air and it acquires all the elias
ITCHY which the rubber has lost, and
will bound on the floor like the rubber
in it's normal state.-Science.

Minister Awarded the Prize.

A good one is told on well-known min
lister who was walking along the street
the other day and saw a crowd of boys
sitting in front of ring with small dog
in the center When he came up to them
he put the following question: What
are you doing with that dog?" One little
boy said: Whoever tells the biggest lie
wins it, "Oh,' said the minister, Il am
surprised at you little boys, for when l
was like you | never told a Ge." There
was a silence for awhile, until one of the
boys shouted: Hand him up the dog!'

FUN ON A STREET CAR.
And This Nonsense Was Heard in
the Sedate and Sensible City
of Philadelphia.

On Walnut street car the other day,
says the Philadelphia Record, two women
who evidently knew each other but slight
ly struck up this conversation: why,
Mrs. Brown! How dye do?" How dye
do, Mrs. Green? wasn't sure it was you
at first" Yes, it's me, all right. How'S
Mr.. Brown '.Oh, he's all right How's
Mr.. Green:" He's all right, too. How
the children?" They're all right. Hows
yourn?" They're all right"
There was a slight pause, as though
neither knew what to say net. Suddenly
one had an inspiration. She giggled a
minute and then said: Say, my husband
asked me the other day what your frat
name was, and to save my soul | couldn't
tell him. What is it?"
Then it was the other woman's turn to
giggie. why, it's Millcent," she said
''Mjllicent? How do you spell it," ooh,
it's an easy name. M-i-l-l-i-c-e-n-t." "Well,
you can't never say you amt got cent
to your name, can your"
A scream of laughter followed this wit
ticism, and they began to slap each on the
wrist.

What Do We Inheritp

It is often remarked that the chill
dren of a great genius seldom exhibit
corresponding powers. Nevertheless,
Prof. Karl Pearson, as the result of
investigations made in England, AYERS
that, as general rule, ability. probity.
geniality and other psychical charac-
tiers are inherited from parents as truly
as physical characters are. From this
he draws the conclusion that although
intelligence can be aided and trained by
