tives, class them as substances injurious
to health. If continued for long time in
quantities not exceeding Lalf grain per
day they cause occasional periods of loss
ofappetite. bad feeling, dullness in the
head and distress in the stomach. If
given in larger and increasing doses these
symptoms are more rapidly developed
and accentuated with a slight clouding
of the mental processes. When increased
to three grams a day the doses sometimes
cause nausea and vomiting.

The annual meeting of the Neilltown

Last Saturday number of the tennis
players of this place made return visit
TO Marienville, sort OF paying up for the
visit given our town last year by the club
OF that town, but, grevious to remark,
the visitors were not as successful in
vanquishing their adversares as on for
mer occasions. Itisn't the proper thing
to carry joke too far, anyway. 1t is apt
to make bad feelings after awhile, and so
our boys allowed their friends on the
summit to take majority of the games
thus leaving better feeling all round
In the five events pulled off Marenville
won three, as follows: Robertson and
Fulton, Tionesta, vs. Amsler and Pick
ems, Marieuvile, won by the former.
Davis and Kellar, Tionesta, VS.. Heating
and Sabine, Marienville, won by the
iOi maj w Ohh anu iOhi uIbOby
Tionesta, VS.. Yingling and Reyner, Mar
ienville, won by the latter. Robertson
and Landers, VS.. Buhl and Keating, won
by latter. And then Marienville put in
her strongest team, Messrs. Yingling and
Stromquist, against DR.. Dunn and an
other fellow from Tonesta, and having
driven % miles in blazing hot sun, as
matter OF course we got licked thus giving
Marienville the odd "horse." Anyhow
it was that express" push we were af-
ter, and they told us that Sam Pickens,
shifting defeat, skipped out and hasn't
been seen in MarienvIle since. The re-
suit of this contest means a continuance
of hostilties, and our boys will await the
next coming of the east enders with "hay
on our horns"
