The Pointer.

There Is as much fallacy in attempt
ing to prove the origin of pointing as in
a like attempt to prove the origin of
eating. AS q matter of fact, the point
ing act commonly exhibited by the
pointer and setter is an incident of the
capture or attempted capture of food
by dogs, and also by wolves and foxes.
Coyotes have been seen to draw and
point on prairie dogs and grouse In
precisely the same manner that the
pointer and setter draw on game birds
There were the same rigidity and
stealth, the pause to judge of distance
and opportunity and the final rigid
pause when all the energies are con
centrated for the final spring to cap
ture- All the phenomena displayed by
the dog family indicate that the draw
ing and pointing in the pursuit of prey
were ever natural traits. 1t may be
reasonably believed that man could
not breed the pointing instinct out of
the dog If he attempted to do So

The story of nm Isven,ior

The power loom was the invention o,
a farmers boy. who had never seen OF
heard OF such thing He fashioned
one with his pcnkulfc, and when he cot
1t all done lie showed ii with great en-
thusiasm to his father, who at one,
kicked It all TO pieces. saying he wou.t
have no boy about him who would
spend his time on such foolish things
The boy was sent to blacksmith tc
learn trade. and his master took q
lively Interest In him. He made q
loom of what was left of the one his
father had broken up ana showed 1t t.
his master. The blacksmith saw he
had no common boy as an apprentice
and that the invention was valuable
one. He had loom constructed under
the supervision of the boy. 1t worked
to their perfect satisfaction, and the
blacksmith furnished the means tC
manufacture the looms, and the boy
received half the profits. In about n
year the blacksmith wrote to the boys
father that he should bring with him
d wealthy gentleman, who was the in.
ventor of the celebrated power loom.
You may be able to judge of the as.
tonishment at the old home when his
son was presented to him as the in
ventor, who told him that the loom
was the same as the model that he
had kicked to pieces the previous year,

The Fountain Pen.

The fountain pen is not an invention
OF recent years. In Samuel Taylor's
Universal System of Shorthand Writ
Ing" published in 1856, we find proof
of the fountain pens great age.
Il have nothing more to add wrote
Samuel Taylor, for the use or instruc-
ton of the practitioner, except few
words concerning the kind of pen prop
er to be used for writing shorthand.
For expeditions writing some use what
are called fountain pens, into which
your ink Is put, which gradually flows
when writing, from thence into small
er pen cut short to fit the smaller end
of this instrument, but 1t is a hard
matter to meet with a good one of this
kind"

The Fork.

1t is about 1,900 years ago since the
fork made its appearance in Europe.
In 30 A. d. son of the doge Pietro
Orsolo had welded in Venice the Briz-
zantine Princess Anglia, who produced
at the wedding breakfast a silver fork
and gold spoon. Then the high Vene-
tion families followed suit, and these
martyrs to fashion pricked their lips
with the new instrument. The fork
prospered, however, and spread over
Italy. In 1870 it had Travelled as far
as France, and in 1908 traveller
brought it direct to England.

CATARRH FROM CHILDHOOD
Cured by hyomeI, the Only Medicine
for Catarrh That l.. Taggart Is Will
ing to Guarantee.

The popularity aud growth of Hyomei
are unique in the annals of medicine.
The demand fer the Hyomei outfit and
the extra bottles in Emporium has been
something phenomenal, and l.. Taegart
says that he has never sold any other
remedy which gave such universal salts
faction and made so many remarkable
cures.
The fact that Hyomei cures catarrh in
the onl y natural and sensible way, that
is through breathing medicated air, not
by taking drugs into the stomach, no
doubt has helped in the introduction of
the treatment. There is certainly no
other remedy for catarrhal diseases that
is so etfectua as Hyomei and its dis
covery has realized in part Pasteur' s
prophecy. ave shall one day rid the
world Of all diseases that are caused by
germs.
The worst and most chronic cases of
catarrh readily yield to the use of Hyomei.
People who have suffered from childhood
have been cured by this remedy. j. S.
Nugens, treasurer of the American Union
Insurance Co., New York. City, writes:
"Hyomei has completely cured my
daughter of catarrh, from which she had
been suffering for years"
So many remarkable results have at
tended the use of Hyomei amongst the
customers of l.. Taggart, that he feels
justified in using the strongest possible
language in speaking of its virtues, and
; when you read that ne sells it under an
absolute guarantee to refund the money
if it does not cure, you will see that
he fully believes in its curative powers.
A complete outfit costs only one dollar,
extra bottles so cents.

Dear Sir Mr.. H. Fl. Stephenson,
Cashier of Oil City pa, Savings Bank
writes: "Nine years ago / painted my
house with your paint. 1t wore so we'll

That's nothing wonderful except for
the fact that the soft coal region of Penn
sylvania is pretty hard on paint with its
oil, smoke and CRIME. All we see in it
is that Devoe is good for nine years some
times. There are thousands of people
that konw it, and millions that don't.
There's therub! We advertise for the
millions; we want to make paint for the
millions.
Mr. Cashier, do you know that Devoe
lead-and-zinc is twice as cheap as lead
and-oil or mixed paints? Is 100 per cent
fair profit in your business?
Three-quarters Of the people paint lead
and-oil mixed by hand; while the U. S.
Government use lead, zinc and oil ground
together by machinery-same as Devoe
lead-and-zinc. The majority never is
right about anything.

take her that way, or any other reSpec-
table way, and from one end OF the
play to the other she wheedled, coaxed
and besought him to stop his jealous
nonsense and be convinced that she
was fond and true. He preferred to
believe her perfidious and vicious. That
was an unpleasantness which made the

WINDOW SHOWINGS.
Beautiful Autumnal Effects for the
Big Opening.

For three days the curtains at Keith
O'Brien company were lowered. With
in the spacious display windows there
was a transformation scene. The win
dow trimmers were doing their best
work, one having recently returned
from Chicago and New York where
study was made of the newest ideas in
window THINNING. That inspiration had
been drawn from the biggest men in
the profession was attested the instant
the many curtains were raised last
evening at o'clock. Autumnal set
tings relieved and enhanced the beauty
of new merchandise. Each window re-
vealed a pretty picture. More beauti-
full goods were never displayed. Elk
quisite gowns, rich suits, elegant silks,
and on through q varied exhibit of new
things the interested and charmed spec
tator was carried to the gorgeous
showing of millinery.
Monday the opening occurs. 1t will
be an occasion of extraordinary mo-
ment. Myriads of feminine eyes are
already centered on opening day at the
big store, which will be resplendent
with decoration. Elegant headwear
will thrill the women most. And after
they have Toasted upon the master
pieces and simpler head dress, atten-
ton will be turned to other directions.
On Monday, too Miss Purcell will
open the dressmaking department, and
Mr.. Pauloo the ladies' tailoring sec

eminently in the foreground among
similar western industries. No effort OF

this prestige.

Fractured Knee Cap Discovesed.

\ most remarkable case was brought
to notice Yesterday when it was dis
covered that young man, Charles
Foust, of Danville, who was hurt by
a fall last autumn, had been existing
for the past SIX months with fractur-
ed knee cap, totally unaware of the
serious nature of his injuries.
Last fall Mr.. Foust, who resides
with his sister, Mrs. Truitt, Gulick's
addition, was carrying a pail of water
at his home when ne fell, injuriHg his
leg. He was confined TO the house for
two weeks and received medical atten-
tion. Later he began to make his way
about with the aid of cane, but his in
juries did.notscem TO improve. Yester-
day morning he visited the Office of Dr.
Harpel, who at once diagnosed the case
as IA fractured knee cap. Several other
physicians were called into consulta-
tion upon the case, among them being
DIR. l. G.. Barber. who was able to
make arrangements for the young man
to receive treatment at the Mary Pack
er hospital at Sunbury.
Since his fall the unfortunate young
man has been in almost constant ago
IL zing pain. He looks but the shadow
of his former robust self, and has the
appearance of having undergone "A
wasting illness. Yesterday as he told
his pitiable story to the doctors and
received their disheartening verdict,
the tears streamed down his cheeks
Since his fall, nature has been at
work upon the fractured knee cap,
with the result that the broken edges
of bone have become covered with cal
lus 80 that before the process of mend
ing can begin it will be necessary to
scrape the two edges of the fractured
bone. Even then the doctors doubt if
a thorough and permanent cure can be
effected. Mr. Foust will 90 to the Sun

Installing a New Boiler.

f.. j. LeDuc, proprietor of the CITY
ofaParis, " which was stripped of its
boiler by low-hanging wires while
passing under the river bridge at Cat
awissa, Tuesday, Will not permit the
serious mlshap To Interfere with the
digging of coal to any extent. Mr..
LeDuc left for Wilkes Barre yesterday
to purchase new boiler and what 9th
er machinery may be needed to equip
the clast and make it perfectly sea
worthy.
TheNCity Of Paris had thrilling
experience and the members OF the
crew may feel thankful that they did
not go into the river along with the
boiler. The life boat was also swept
overheard and the crew was obliged to
stick to the dismantled craft The
anchor was thrown overheard but it
could not hold the big coal digger,
which became the sport of the swift
current In a short time the rope snap
ped in two and the anchor clung to
the bottom of the river, while the boat
bearing the men swung down the
stream The anchor is the second one
lost by Mr. LeDuc within a couple of
weeks, the other one lying in the riv-
er here below the bridge
Mr.. LeDuc expects to find plenty of
river coal in the vicinity of Blooms
burg, which viii no doubt be very
much in demand during the summer,
especially if there should be a prolong-
ed miners strike BY the time the
river falls to the proper level he ex-
pects to have his coal digger equipped
and he will at once begin to dig coal.
The life boat, of the City of Paris.
which was swept overheard in the ac-
cident later was caught in the river
here and taken into shore.
