Getting Rich Slowly,

Ordinarily great fortune is built
up like a stone wall-a stone at a
time. The young man who declines
to lay the first stone, because it
comes SO far short of a wall, will
never make progress in financial
masonry. An immense proportion
of the people of this country live up
to their incomes, laying aside moth
ing for the traditional rainy day.
Because they cannot save 81 900 in
bunch they save nothing The
greatest financial kings of the world
have not been above taking care of
the pennies even. The great 6nan-
cial institutions look after even the
fractions of pennies.

less than forty points is culm and
mine refuse being poured into the

-Sportsmen IN the we stern part

petitions in Lycoming, Potter,
Tioga and other counties, asking
the Legislature to enact a law

the first fifteen days of November,
and the number that may be killed
by one person in the season to one.
1t is receiving a great many sigma
lures.

What a splendid type of treless activity is
the sun as the psalmist describes It issuing
like "a bridegroom from his chamber and
rejo cling like a strong man to run race"
Every man ought to rise in the morning re-
freshed by slumber and renewed by rest,
eager for the Struggle Of the day. But how
rarely this is so. Most people rise still I'M
refreshed, and dreading the strain of the
days labors. The cause Of this is deficient
vitality and behind this lies deficient supply
of pure, rich blood, and an inadequate
nourishment of the body. There is nothing
tina. will give man strength and energy, as
will DIR. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery.
1t does this by increasing the quantity and
quality of the blood supply. This nourishes
the nerves, feeds the brain, builds up en-
feebled organs, and gives that sense of
strength and power which makes the strug.
gle of life joy. The "good feeling" which
follows the use of "Golden Medical Dis
covery' is not due to stimulation as it con.
tains no alcohol whisky or other intoxicant
1t does not brace up the body, but builds it
up into a cordition of sound health.

There is more Catarrh in this
section Of the country than all other
diseases put together, and until the
last few years was supposed to be
incurable. For great many years
doctors pronounced it local dis
ease and prescribed local remedies,
and by constantly failing to cure
with local treatment, pronounced it
incurable. Science has proven ca
tarrh to be constitutional disease
and therefore requires constitutional
treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure,
manufactured by F. ]. Cheney &
Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the only con-
stitutional cure on the market. 1t
is taken internally in doses from
10 drops to teaspoonful. 1t acts
directly on the blood and mucous
surfaces of the system. They offer
one hundred dollars for any case it
fails to cure. Send for circulars
and testimonials.

efforts to secure redemption of tn
tariff revision promises of his party,
the announcement that the Presi-
dent will call session to deal with
the railroad question comes as a
blow in the face. The stern digni-
fed, conservative Senate has so
long prevented any reform in the
supervision of railway rates or the
promotion of federal control of
these rates, that it is astounded that
President should have the temeri-
ty to attempt to dictate its duty.
1t is hardly conceivable to those
who have long watched the clever
obstructionist tactics of the Senate,
that the President can accomplish
any reform cf real value, in the
face Of the solid opposition which
he will meet with from the large
majority of his own party, but it is
entirely possible that between them
the President and the Republican
Senators will make it so obvious
that the Republican party as a
whole stands in the way of real re-
form as to pave the way for great
Democratic victories in the future.
A prominent Democratic Senator
said to your correspondent yester-
day, 81 am almost inclined to be-
lieve that with Theodore Roosevelt
in the White House and Democratic
majorities in both Houses of Con-
gress we could really accomplish
something. He is the most un.
Republican Republican l ever
knew"
XIX
The President is, however, too
much of a protectionist at heart to
get along with Democratic maiori-
ties, and he is too prone to insist on
his own way. The objections to
the arbitration treaties, which the
President recently sent to the
Senate, have been clearly set forth
III the public press and by Demo
cratic and Republican members of
the Senate and yet the President
has buckled on his spurs and has
taken his riding crop ard is at
tempting to drive them through the
Senate despite the opposition of
both Republicans and Democrats.
He has written a letter to the
chairman of the committee on
Foreign Relations, Senator Cullom,
announcing that if the Senate a.
mends the treaties as that body be-
lieves it should, he will Withdraw
them. Such methods are hardly to
be countenanced. The President
has the constitutional power to
carry out his threat but it amounts
to setting his judgment in a matter
concerning foreign relations above
that of a very large majority Of thc
Senate, when the constitution eX-
pressly stipulates that all foreign
relations shall be determined by the
judgment of the President and a
two thirds vote of the Senate.

That's what a prominent
druggist said of SCOTS
Emulsion a S hort time
ago. AS a rule we don't
use or refer to testimonials
in addressing the public,
but the above remark and
simila ar expressions are
made so often in Connec-
ton with SCOTS Emulsion
that they are worthy of
occasional note. From
infancy to old age SCOTS
Emulsion offers a reliable
means of remedying i'm
proper and weak develop
ment, restoring lost flesh
and vitality, and repairing
waste. The &C t i o. II Of
SCOTS Emulsion is no
more of a secret than the

it does through nourish-
