Philip Rodney, of Centerville, Pa,
played mighty mean trick on his wife
the other night. Rodney, who is a
prominent and well-to.do business
man, discovered recently that his wife
had been taking spending money out
of his trousers while he slept. He
demonstrated with her, but the wifely
pilfering continued, and serious quar-
rels followed. Last Saturday night
Rodney, determined to break up his
wife's practice, put small but strong
rat trap in his money pocket, with the
jaws toward the opening. He was
awakened shortly after midnight by
his wife's screams, and, jumping out
of bed, discovered her hand tightly
wedged in the jaws of the steel trap.
The woman begged to be released,
but Rodney allowed her to suffer for
while before freeing her. Her hand
was badly lacerated. Mrs. Rodney
left her husband next day and took
up her residence with her parents
She says she will no longer live with
him.

There is more Catarrh in this section
of the country than all the other dis
eases put together, thought until last
few years to be incurable. For great
many years doctors pronounced a local
disease and prescribed local remedies,
and by constantly failing to cure with
local treatment, pronounced it incura-
BILE. Science has proven catarrh to be
a constitutional disease and therefore
requires constitutional treatment.
Halls Catarrh Cure, manufactured by
F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the
only constitutional cure on the market.
1t is taken internally in doses from cen
drops to teaspoonful. 1t acts direct
ly on the blood and mucous sufaces of
the system. They offer one hundred
dollars for any case it fails to cure.

The body of Mrs. Mary Fay, who
died in New York last week at the
age of los years, was found to be in
so unusual state of preservation that
the coroner's physician called in other
doctors to observe the case. They
were amazed to find the body like that
of healthy woman Of 80, and in
quiry brought out the fact that the
old lady had lived for forty years
almost exclusively upon diet of dry
bread and milk, refusing meat or veg
etables altogether.

IT is semi. officially announced that
after a conference between President
Roosevelt and the leaders Of the Re-
publican party it has been determined
that the slogan Of the campaign shall
be "stand pat"
To stand pat on the tariff question
means that the present system of un-
Unsuitable duties shall be maintained
so that manufacturers may pile up
colossal fortunes at the expense of the
consumers.
To stand pat on. present conditions
means that the trusts shall continue
their exactions from the people; that
powerful corporations shall be permit
ed to rule the business affairs of the
country at their own sweet will, I'M
challenged and unobstructed; that a
few shall accumulate fortunes beyond
the dreams Of avarice by unjustly ex-
tracing the substance of the many.
To stand pat means that the Presi-
dent of our country shall splitter
about regulating the wrong things in
public affairs and do nothing.
We somehow believe that the PEG.
pie will after awhile get tired of stand
ing pat for the benefit of those who
have already received more than their
fair share.

Asthma Sufferers Should Know This.

Foley's Honey and Tar has cured
many cases of asthma that were con-
sidered hopeless. Mrs. Adolph Blusing,
70l West Third St., Davenport, Iowa,
writes "a severe cold contracted
twelve years ago was neglected until it
finally grew into asthma. The best
medical skill available could not give
me more than temporary relief. Foley's
Honey and Tar was recommended and
one fifty cent bottle entirely cured me
of asthma which had been growing on

the government of Russia and the
reyolutionists is near at hand. Last
week the Gar dismissed the Douma,
or parliament. from which the people
had expected many important reform
measures, and this means that his au-
tocratic form Of government will be
resumed. Indeed, what amounts to
martial law has been proclaimed. and
there ia every reason to belirve that
bloody times are ahead. The govern.
ment has issued a manifesto in which
it says that there will be war to the

by the activity of the Dawson ring in
Mr.. Sturgiss' behalf. and he further
states that many Republicans have
asked him. to run as an independent
candidate, and that be is giving the
matter consideration, as well as the
idea of placing independent Republi-

The telegram has caused good deal

Senator Elklns. They claim that be

then abandoned him at the demand
of Governor Dawson, who earnestly
desired the nomination Of Sturgiss.
They are just mad enough to want

part of this plan.
