A Great Invention.

We have received an illustrated
pamphlet of the Industrial Motor
Company's Telpher System" which
illustrates and describes the invention
of our Washington friend, Mr.. Geo.
Schrveder, mention of which we made
two years ago, at which time we had
the pleasure of looking over and hav-
ing explained to us this marvellous
system from the blue prints in Mr..
Schroeder private off ;e at 1910 G.
street, N. w., Washington, d. c.
This system is adapted for overland
transportation of mail, express, freight
and passenger service, loading and
unloading vessels at sea-away from
wharf facilities.
Mr.. Schroeder is one of the present
day inventors, and this wonderful in.
vention now agitating the great minds
of the age is being watched with un i
versal interest, aid will, unquestion-
ably prove great advance in our
rapid and safe transportation in a
short time. His proven theory is TO
carry the valuable burdens on wires
strung high above the travelling pub
lie, thus avoiding collision with vehi-
cles and pedestrians and eliminate
surface commotion. We prophesy
for this matchless system n wonderful
success in the very near fu ure. Mr..
Schroeder will kindly accept our
thanks for this remembrance as we'll
as for the beautiful art calendar he
sent US.

TIMBER PRESERVATION.

The Most Perfect Method Is Also the
Most Expensive.
Telephone poles nearly always decay

In the air, rapidly drying after rain, is
practically always dry and is rarely
found decayed. The butt Of the pole,
deeply buried in the ground, Is in
permanently damp condition, but oxy-
gen being excluded 1t is seldom badly
affected. Close to the ground line the
soil retains the moisture and keeps the
wood constantly damp where 1t Is ex-
posed to the air and to the heat Of the
sun, which is Just what Its little vege-
table enemies like, but II the albumen

food the wood. tissues offer practically
no support to fungi. Timber preserva-
tion amounts, then, to poisoning tho
food supply Of the destructive agencies.
Preservation Of timber Is attempted
in three ways-by seasoning, either
natural or artificial; by outward me-
chanical means, such as charring in fire
or the applications of antiseptics on the
surface of the stick, and by impreg.
mating the wood with antiseptlcs. OF
these the last is by far the most i'm
portant The most perfect method
which is also the most expensive-is
the injection of dead oil of coal tar in
to the whole fiber of the pole.-Hart-

SUNBURY'S FIRE
AL.ARH SYSTEM

Enterprising Sunbury recently in
stalled system of automatic fire

of that town. Nothing but trouble has,
come from the new system, however.
Yesterday the climax came when
the whole fire department and a large
concourse of other peonle assembled in
one part of town in answer to a call.
while fire burned itself out in an
other part of the burg, the reason be-
ing that some one who sent in the
alarm didn't understand the working
Of the new alarm boxes.
The alarm boxes are constructed
with a glass front which is broken
when an alarm is to be sent in. This
has proven boon to the boys of Sum
bury who find great delight in break
ing the glass to see how the thing
works.

THE "HOLY HOUSE,"
Legend of the Home of Mary and the
Saviour.

Legend of the Home of Mary and the
saviour.
Let me give the main outlines Of the
legend. At Nazareth was preserved
with pious care the house of Our
Lady. The dwelling place in which
she received the gracious message Of
the incarnation, the lowly home which
sheltered the holy family for so many
years, was q very precious sanctuary.
On May 10, 1901, a month after the
taking of Tripoli and Ptolemais, this
holy house was carried by the hands
Of angels from Nazareth to a place In
Dalmatia between Fiume and Tersatz
on the Adrintic shore.
1t was a one roomed edif1ce, built OF
red square stones, fastened with ce-
ment and bore proof Of age and orr
entail design. 1t stood without any,
foundations and had a wooden deco
rated ceiling. The walls were covered
with frescoes; there were a door aud
a narrow window; inside were an
altar Of stone, an ancient crucif1x, a
small cupboard, containing a few ves-
sells Of common use; chimney and
hearth, above which was q cedar
statue of Our Lady with the Holy
Child in her arms. The pastor Of the
place learned In a vision that the build
ing was the house Of Our Lady, the
stone altar that at which st. Peter
celebrated mass and the statue the
work Of st. Luke the Evangelist. In
proof of the vision he was cured of
serious Illness. A deputation of four
responsible persons forthwith were
sent to Nazareth to investigate the
mystery, and they found that the
house was no longer to be found.
Measurement and other means taken
proved that the house that had sud
denly appeared in Dalmntia was in
deed none other than that which had
ms suddenly left Palestine Three years
after, on Dec. 10, 1904. the holy
house again disappeard and under
the pontificate Of Celestine v. came to
Recanati, a little town In the march
Of Ancona, when It fixed itself In
laurel grove belonging to pious lady
called Loreto. 1t was discovered by
some shepherds and soon became rec
ognized and was henceforth much
frequented place Of pilgrimage. Eight
months afterward the house removed
to sWall hill, three miles from Re-
canati, to land belonging to two broth
ers. who, however, fell out shortly aft
erward over the division of wealth
which began to flow to the new shrine.
To save strife between the brothers
the house was suddenly lifted once
more and this time settled down final
ly in the midst Of the public way,
which had TO be diverted in conse-
Quence. Here, too. in the course Of
time a chapel was built, which gave
way in time to the present basilica.
The famous pilgrimage Of Loreto goes
on today. Popes. kings and princes
have visited this shrine and left great
gifts. Later on n festival with ntur-
gical rites was instituted, and In tme
the feast Of the translation of the holy
house was extended to many countries.

kidneys and bladder constitute the greatest source
Of disease. Cure these and we remove the cause
of nearly all ailments Of the Liver. Blood, Stomach
and Bowels. But the approach Of Kidney disease

not be noticed Here are some OF the most common
symptoms of this dangerous disease:
Discolored or dark urine, sometimes excessive
and OF pale color.
Unusual desire to urinate, especially at night.
"Brick Dust" deposits, sometimes containing
albumen and blood.
Swelling around eyes, ankles and abdomen.
Drowsiness and a constant tired feeling.

Is the earth made up of three con-
centric spheres? A physician says that
such Is the case. The solid nucleus he
supposes to be between 5000 and 1000
miles In diameter, and this is surround
ed by liquid substratum, outside Of
which Is the crust, variously estinat-
ed at 20 to 200 miles in thickness.
More than two centuries ago a similar
theory, including the slow rotation of
the Inner solid sphere on a different
axis from that Of the entire globe, was
held by DIR. Edmund HALEY to account
for the changes in the earth's magnet
ism. The axis Of the nucleus was
thought to have been originally that Of
the entire globe, and to the change Of
Its course was attributed the deluge.
The earth's internal heat, it is now,
pointed out. may be accounted for byj
the friction Of the different rotating
bodies. '--

Farmers Are Happy.

The farmers of this section have ev-
cry reason to be thankful this year for
very successful year. AS whole,
the crops were very good, and altogeth-

with pleasure. Which fact is loudly
testified to by the abundant supplies
consisting of nearly every variety of
edible produced in the country to be

know you will take my ticket and get
1t checked for me. Brother VIII said
he would surely be here, but something
has happened to detain him."
"It will be something to remember all
my life"
A child Of ten, a bachelor Of forty
or an old woman Of ninety can check
a trunk when once the feat of getting
it to the depot has been accomplished.
All you have to do Is to point 1t out
with one hand while you show your
ticket with the other and tell the bag
gage master that he must make no mis-
take and check 1t for Oshkosh instead
Of Kalamazoo.
Harry Lee had that trunk identified
and checked in seven minutes, and he
was feeling rather proud over the fact
when plain looking woman Of forty
appealed to him. She was looking for
far 1t had eluded her. 1t tried to dodge
Harry Lee, but In vain. He had his
eyes on 1t in no time.
Just at this juncture girl Of eight
cen, dressed in mourning and looking
fearful and anxious, wanted help. Her
trunk was all right as to handles, but
she was afraid it had been checked to
Rochester instead of Syracuse She
gave the bachelor her check to see
about it, and thus 1t came about that
he had three checks for three trunks in
his possession. Moreover, he put them
into the same pocket. Moreover ago'a,
he'd have walked back to Miss Rem
1ngton with them had not the plain
looking woman and the girl in mourn
ing hesitatingly reminded him Of his
carelessness.
"Ten thousand pardons, ladies'" he
apologized in confusion, and with that
he CALAMITY pulled out the three checks
and made fair divide. There was
Just one apiece and nothing left over.
1t was train time now and everybody
in hurry, and Miss Remington's
brother came rushing in, and so with
1t all no one made any discoveries. and
the three women were hurried away
with scores Of other passengers.
For the first time in year, so far as
he could remember, the club bachelor
had made himself useful for few
minutes, and there was something like
elation in his eye as he left the depot
to continue his saunter Twenty-four
hours later he received call from
young Winchester, who had an open
telegram In his hand and who bluntly
inquired:
"See here, Lee, what have you done
with my sisters trunk?"
"Why, I checked 1t for Buffalo yes
terday."
"She has telegraphed that she has an
other in the place of It,"
But, man, l surely checked 1t, and
you saw me hand her the brass. Those
confounded railroad folks must have
made another of their stupid mistakes"
"Well, we'll let 1t rest for a day, and
perhaps they'll rectify It."
During the next twenty-four hours
Miss Remington sent two more tele-
grams from Buffalo, and the ease low
ing and complacent bachelor got
move on him and went to the depot to
interview the president, vice president
and general manager of the road, Be-
ing told that they had gone off on a
