In last weeks Bee, in the Fair
View items, there appeared a notice
which inferred that Lewis Clark and
family had been taking a bath in the
ditch along the road, and we hasten
to say that it was a huge mistake on
the part of our printer, as the item
should have read: Carl, the little son
of Mr.. and Mrs. Lewis Clark, took a
cold bath in the road ditch last week. -
Errors will happen" and we are not
above the average.-Antwerp (Ohio)

A western paper says that a man
who was run over by freight train
and had both legs cut off will prob
ably be a cripple all his life" Here

for the purpose of introducing the new
germecde, Ozon.
Ozon is the only safe. sure and radical
cure and preventive for Nasal Phiryn-
geal and Laryngeal catarrh.
Ozon by its germicidal power in rend-
ering all germs inert in the nasopharyngea
mucous membrane has produced the first
step and most important in the cure Of
catarrh. Therefore Ozon by its germicidal,
cleansing. soothing and healing powers
combines all the necessary properties to
produce the best and most satisfactory
results in accute or chronic nasal catarrh,
catarrhal headache, catarrhal deafness
and hay fever.
Ozon should be used in all infectious
and contagious diseases.
Ozon is perfectly safe for children and
infants, and its timely use will save the
lives of thousands of children every year,
Ozon has proved to be the ideal remedy.
You need never look elsewhere. One
trial will convince the most skeptical OF
its intrinsic value.

Ten Million People Reduced to Stern
Want-Food Riots Occur DalIy-im.
periaI Government Urged to Aid
sufferers-Thousan Are Dead
Death List Appalling.

Shanghai, Nov. 8.-Advices received
here indicate that famine conditions
of the most desperate nature prevail
in the northern part Of the province OF
Kiangsu, with but one exception the
most fertile and valuable Of the many
provinces of the empire. Ten millions
of the total population of 21,0OO,000 In
the province are reduced to stern
want. Crops are a failure and scenes
of suffering that rival anything in the
empires history are reported from
every point in the region.
Food riots which have been marked
with much bloodshed, are reported
daily and so far the officials have ia.
ken no steps to relieve the distress.
In fact, to prevent the rioting spread
ing to the cities, all the governors
have been ordered to keep the people
in their homes at all hazards and
further rioting has resulted from this
step.
All the local diplomatic represen.
tatives have received advices from
foreigners in the famine stricken re.
gion, urging them to use all their in
fluence to have the imperial govern.
ment take steps to aid the sufferers.
A Presbyterian missionary who has
just returned from the region declares
that thousands of people have already
starved to death and that unless imme-
date aid is forthcoming the death list
will be appalling.
