AS will be seen in the indict-
ments, Rev. A. Westfall was in
dicted three times and f. II. Hosk-
ms once for alleged misappropria-
ton of public funds. Mr.. West
fall is accused of having pur-
chased considerable stuff for his
private use and paid for it by al
lowing the parties from whom he
purchased, so much time worked
on the roads. Mr. Hoskins is
accused Of having had an order
allowed to another man, upon
which ne received the cash him
self. The cases are Of a new ma
ture and it is hard to tell what
will result from it.

Bickel Bros. recently took hold
of the Hamilton No. / gas well
on Leaf Bank, which Godfrey l..
Cabot had abandoned, and started
to drill it to the lower sands with
a view to getting oil, but when
the we'll was cleaned out it was
found to contain a great deal of
gas, and after drilling it only a
few feet deeper another strong
flow was encountered and they
have a great well. Every one is
glad to learn Of their good luck.

FASHIONS MANDATE.

Every woman needs an Empire
scarf In these days. They are de-
lightful with an Empire or Direc-
toire costume and make a charming
accessory to almost any sort of even
ing dress
There is a tendency toward Jap
anese styles just now. Long
shoulder effects and dropping sleeves
are seen everywhere. This is proha-
bly, the outcome of the pelerine
effects which have been so popular.
There II great mixture Of his
torical periods shown in the differ-
ent articles Of dress. Hats seem,
for the most part. inspired by the
Louis XVI day, while gowns still
lean toward that OF the Empire.
Among the darker waistings are
shown some very pretty invisible
plaids in green and navy blue.
These look well worn with a plain
skirt of the same color as the pre-
vailing hue in the waist.

Women Who Wear Well.

1t is astonishing how great a
change few years Of married life
will make in the appearance and
disposition of MANY women. The
freshness, the charm. the brilliance
vanish like the bloom from a peach
which is rudely handled. The
matron is only a dim shadow, a
faint echo of the charming maiden.
There are two reasons for this
change, ignorance aud ne
glect. Few young women appre-
ciate the shock to the system
through the change which comes
with marriage. Many neglect to
deal with the unpleasant drains
which are often consequent on mar
riage and motherhood, nct under
standing that this secret drain is
robbing the cheek OF its freshness
and the form of its fairness. As
surely as the general health suffers
when there is arrangement of the
health of the delicate womanly or
gans, SO surely when these organs
are established in health the face
and form at once witness to the fact
in renewed comliness. Half mil
lion women and more have found
health and happiness in the use of

Life Guards.

The Life Guards are two regi-
ments of cavalry forming part of
the British household troops. They
are gallant soldiers, and every loyal
British heart is proud of them. Not
only the Kings household, but
yours, ours, everybody's should
have its life guards. The need of
them is especially great when the
greatest foes of life, diseases, find
allies in the very elements, as colds.
influenza, catarrh, the grip, and
pneumonia do in the stormy month
OF March. The best way that we
know of to guard against these dis
eases is to strengthen the system
with Hoods Sarsaparilla-the
greatest of all life guards. 1t re-
moves the conditions in which these
diseases make their most success
full attack, gives vigor and tone to
all the vital organs and functions,
and imparts ge. ial warmth to the
blood Remember the weaker the
system the greater the exposure to
disease. Hoods Sarsaparilla makes
the system strong.

Cod Liver OIL As q Food,

Nine persons out Of every ten think
Of cod liver oil as a medicine. Since
1t Is so regarded 1t has to share the
odium OF all medicines.
Few people use 1t unless 1t Is pre-
scribed by physician. Now. cod
liver oil Is a medicine In the sense
that 1t is wonderfully effective In the
treatment Of many diseases. But 1t
is not medicine in the popularity
accepted meaning Of the term. That
Is, 1t Is not a drug. Cod liver oil
is primarily a food. Perhaps the
most accurate way to describe It
would be to call 1t medicinal food.
The fact that nothing else equals
1t as a producer of strength in the
body suggests almost unlimited pos
sibilities Of use in the diet. Whero-
as now cod liver oil is rarely taken
except as medicine. 1t could be
used universally as a food with
most gratifying results.
1t Is a curious thing that the ele-
ments OF cod liver oil have been
combined by nature in the making
Of that oil skill which surpasses
all human chemistry. or even human
knowledge. 1t Is an astonishing
fact that cod liver oil Is so complex
that, in spite of the most painstaking
analysis and diligent investigation,
no man has yet been able to dis
cover any of the elements which
enter into Its composition.

WOMAN's SENSE OF HUMOR,
When Highly Cultivated Often BE-
comes An Avenging Weapon.

Woman, as a whole, Is considered
TO have no sense of humor.
In fact, her lack of appreciation
of a joke Is standard jest among
tho men folk.
They write funny stories about 1t
and get paid large prices for jokes
In comic papers. And all because
womans sense of humor does not lie
along the same lines as their own.
The real truth of the matter is
that men don't want woman to have
sense of humor. They are afraid
of the woman who Is very quick
to see a joke.
They feel that as she Is SO quick
to see the ridiculous side Of things.
she will be equally quick to see the
ridiculous side of them. and that
no man can stand.
Voltaire, who SO thoroughly un-
derstood mankind, prayed God,
make my enemies ridiculous
A keen sense of humor makes life
much easier for the person who pos
sesses II, but In the case of a woman
there Is great danger Of sacrificing
her lovableness at the alter of her
humor.
1t 10 better for a woman to be
sympathetic than humorous.
The person with very keen sense
of humor is apt to laugh In the
wrong place. and is constantly hurt
ing the feelings of others. The
funny side always strikes first.
know OF woman who always sees
the funny side of every person. It's
intensely amusing to listen to her
comments, but you can't help but
have an uneasy consciousness that
you take your turn with her other
victims
As an entertaining woman she Is
sought by all men, but no one man
seems to fall in love with her. They
fight shy of that highly developed
sense OF humor Of hers.
A man OF my acquaintance says
his chief amusement In life Is his
wifes failure to see the point In u
joke. She is so deliciously at
sea-" he says. And when she does
grasp point 1t is never the ona
you mean"
That mans sense OF humor Is ex-
ceedingly well developed, should
say, when he is able to see a joke
In what would drive some people
to distraction or divorce.
Humor frequently makes enc
mics; sympathy Invariably makes
friends.-New York World.

Restless Women.

We all know such women-know
them-admire them-and tremble
for them! As they stagger to and
fro. striving vainly to overtake the
tasks which our modern life imposes
upon them. we think with sympathy,
first OF all. for them. and then, II
they are wives and mothers, for their
husband and children. We own
the claims Of hospitals and sew
ing-classes and kindergartens that
drag them hither and thither; but II
we were to speak to them In that
Western yernaGular which cried out
to the parson who took an hour to
preach twenty-minute sermon,
Brother, don't spread your butter
so thin!" we should entreat them
to concentrate rather than to scatter
their often wasteful, though always
well-meant endeavors. - Harper's
Bazaar.

HOUSEHOLD SUGGESTIONS.

A piece of charcoal put into tho
pot with boiling onions will absorb
most Of the odors.
A cup Of chopped celery, If added
to almost any stuffing for fowls will
improve 1t.
A few grains Of rice put In the salt
cellar will keep the salt moving when
being shaken and avoid its caking.
Place a little peppermint oil in
mice holes. This will keep the mice
away, as the odor is obnoxious to
them.
A bit of sugar added to turnips
while cooking helps them wonder
fully.
Clean brass pans with vinegar and
salt before polishing. This will re-
move any poisonous corrode and
make them At for use in cooking.
Add few drops of lemon juice
to eggs while being scrambled. II
will improve the taste.
Grease the upper inside edge of
the pan in which chocolate is be-
Ing made made and it will not boil
over
When it is not possible to have
ice, meat may be kept fresh for
several days through very hot
weather by immersing 1t in freshly
soured milk. Put the meat into .
crock or crockery bowl. cover en-
tirely with the milk and set In .
cool place. Change the milk at in
tervals of twelve hours.
