rise of over ten feet III the Mississippi

suited i'll damage along the St. Louis
liverfront amounting to many thou

The water is gradually creeping up and
is predicted that by nightfall the

Prosduce houses and grain and cot

Dfseaae Carried by Spray.

A French military surgeon in Algiers
has recently found that spray driven
ashore from stormy sea can effective
" transmit disease germs. Carrying
on his Investigations at Bab-el-oued,
near Algiers, at point where num-
Der of sewers discharged into the sea,
he found that the spray, which was
driven some $50 feet ashore and high
into the air. contained three times the
number of germs ordinarily present IN
the air. This spray forms a mist
which permeates the houses near to
the waters edge, and in 1t a number
of virulent bacill were found. When
a gale is blowing offshore the effect Is
still more pronounced and the proper
ton Of germs increased, and the in
vestigatOr is convinced that steps
should be taken to protect shores from
sewage pollution.-Harper's Weekly.

THE HOURS OF SLEEP.
A Rap AZ the "Eariy to Bed and Early
to Rise" Adaqe.

One o. the bugaboos of mundane
existence is the early to bed and
early to rise" adage which has trou-
bled the consciences of so many mil
lions of people. That tantalizing
old jingle about early rising making
a man healthy, wealthy and wise Is
responsible for more misery in the
world than all the other good be-
havior maxims and rules for success
put together. But it is gratifying
to observe that the present genera
ton is not so comr!ai ant in obey
ing the rule as the good but mis-
guided men and women OF ycSter-
day. The carly ring fal Is not
much in vogue now in the cities.
and it will not be many years before
The benefcent reform will take root
in the country. The cause of this
change of course is in the change
from early to late hours in thickly
settled localities. The urban popu-
lation occupies its evenings in pleas
urable pursuits and retircs at an
hour that is not in harmony with
the advice that was inculcated daily
in the minds of our grandmothers
and grandfathers. Another great
change is the increase of occupa-
tons that require night work, for in
every large city there are thousands
of men and women who work at
night and sleep during the day. The
theater is also an important factor
in keeping people awake until mid
night. In olden times there were
not so many amusements and dis
fractions in the daily life, and after
our grandparents finished their
days work there was nothing better
to do than 60 to bed. In these days
of rushing business and varied pleas
ures, however, humanity just begins
to enjoy itself when "darkhess falls
from the wing Of night" when the
pale blue rays of the electrics drill
holes in the ebon atmosphere and
the noises of the downtown thor
oughfares fall on the ear.-Roches-
ter Post-Express.

READ ALL THIS
You Never Know the Moment
When This Information May
Prove of Infinite Value.

1t is worth considerable to any
citizen of Sistersville to know
how to be cured of painful, an
noying and itching piles. Know
then that Doan's Ointment is a
positive remedy for all itchiness
of the skin, for piles, eczema, etc.
One application relieves and
sooths. Read this testimony of its
merit:
Mrs. Sadie Ranger, of 60S 9th
street, Marietta, Ohio, says: "Mr.
Ranger has had no reason to
change his opinion about Doan's
Ointment, which was expressed in
our Marietta papers in 1900. He
had been troubled with hemor-
rhoids for some time and this was
the first remedy which afforded
him positive and complete relief.
We have used Doan's Ointment in
our family as need has arisen with
the children and find there is moth
ing to equal it for relieving itch
mess or irritation of the skin, with
which they have been troubled.
Doan's Ointment is all that it has
ben represented to be, and we
give it our most earnest endorse
ment."

Stocks md Bonds.

New York. July 18.-A glance n,
The total sales of stocks for the dav
sill make clear that the trivial fiuct.
nations in prices were owing to tbs
fact that no important trading was
done. The small attendance of brok-
ers at the Stock Exchange showed
more interest in the discussion of the
weather than in the market. The bulk
of the days meagre business was donc
in the first hour of the session Wheg
4 few testing operations by traders
were i'm evidence. These attempts DEM
onstrated the lifeless condition of the
market and left it to the seml-stagna~
ton of the rest of the day. The gravi-
tation of prices TO a slightly lower
level during the day will be ascrbable
as much to hamilton as any active
cause. The Union Pacific dividend to
be declared in the near future was
still much discussed and the continued
belief that the stock would be placed
on five per cent dividend basis viii,
be modified in its effect by the question
how far the increase had already been
discounted in the price of the stock.
There was nothing in the weekly crop
bulletin of the Weather Bureau TO dis
turb the recent confidence in the con-
dition of the grain crops. Efforts &c
market small amounts of some of the
dormant industrial stocks resulted III
heavy declined before bids Were en-
countered and this had a slightly dis.
turbing influence on sentiment.
Some effect was produced by reports
OF further sales OF foundry pig iron
ana by the strong London market fOl
copper. In spite of the low level OF
stock commission business it was re
ported that sale of a Stock EXchang,
seat had been objected al an advance
OF several thousand dollars over this
