AFTER HER GOLDEN LOCKS.
Miss Martha Panzeram Has u Narrow
Escape from a Razor.

Miss Martha PanZeram Has u Narrow
Escape from a Razor.
A razor, a young lady and a cove
tous man were the cause of a lot of ex-
oitement at the Washington house last
night about 1880 o'clock. says the Ne
braska State Journal. The young
lady was Miss Martha Panzeram. She
was in the kitchen attending to some
domestic duties, when she heard a rap
on the door. She opened it and a man
asked her for a drink of water. She
turned to get it for him. The minute
her back was turned he made a spring
and grabbed her by her hair, which she
usually wore braided down her back.
He made n swift stroke with a razor,
but as h turned partly around he on
ly succeeded in cutting off a few locks.
She screamed and the man ran out of
the door. AS he ran another man, who
had evidently been watching the rear
of the building. joined him and together
they made their escape.
A report was sent to the station at
once and Sergt. Nash was detailed to
look up the man. He got as good a
description as was obtainable from a
boy who saw the men from a stable
back of the hotel and from the young
lady. He arrested a young fellow who
gave his name as William Mccarthy.
He had a razor in his clothing, but
nothing else to show that he may have
been the a who was after Miss
Panzeram's golden locks. The boy
partly identified Mccarthy as the as
sailant.
Miss Panzeram has a beautiful head
of hair remaining. 1t is golden brown
in color and reaches to her waist. The
locks which were severed were found
outside the door, where they were
dropped by the man.
The perpetrator of the deed. If
caught, will have to answer to the
charge Of making an assault with in
tent to disfgure. The penalty Is i'm
prisonment for one year in the peniten-
tiary.

cANADA's GOOD TIMES.
The immigration During 1905 Was
100000.

While it is we'll to heed every
word of caution from the leaders in
and finance and to avoid
all speculative ventures that lack a
solid business foundation, it Is clearly
evident hat there is no conspicuous
weak spot in Canada's present era Of
prosperity. The Toronto Globe says:
THE Dominion has in a commercial
sense plenty of money, and our lead
ing financial institutions are in a po-
sition to lend freely in the United
States. The chief productive enter
prises of Canada are not buoyed up
by an era of dangerous speculation,
but are following substantial bust
ness methods and finding safe and
continuous markets for their goods.
We are not bolstering up any indus
tries by extensive export bonuses
that must ~impoverish the people as
a whole. and ultimately lead to col
lapse through the failure of the arti-
fetal aid. There is no extreme pro-
lection in Canada such as would Gre
ate great fortunes for a few at the
expense of the general public and
lead to disruption and catastrophe.
The prosperity of Canada has no ar
titicial foundation being based on a
healthy and substantial expansion of
trade and industry. with a proportion
ate extension of productive settlement
to new areas.
1t is true that we are borrowing
extensively for railway construction,
but every line will bring new terri
tory within the limits of profitable
occupation, and will create prosper
GUS settlements to bear the burdens
and repay the outlay. We are not
exhausting mineral resources, for it
is quite reasonable to assume that,
although mineral wealth is never
permanent, ours will during the
measurable future develop a far
greater productive capacity than at
present. Our timber wealth can be
made continuous by a judicious pol
icy. And agriculture, the real foun-
dation of our prosperity, is expanding
with every new expenditure on rail-
way construction. We are not in
the flush of a railway mania that
could bring it's punishment through
the useless duplication of lines. The
gigantic railway enterprises that
now stimulate every line of business
in Canada will create a new Domin-
ion, and thus render easy the heavy
burdens of debt now freely assumed.
Canada's era of prosperity has been
unprecedented, but there is no sign
of weakness and no cause for lack
of confidence. While our growth is
normal and healthy, We need have no
alarm at its %rapidity." This article
might have gone on to relate the
great growth that is taking place in
Central Canada, where thousands of
Americans have made their homes
during the past few years. The past
calendar year has given to Canada by
importation an addition of 216,OOO to
its population. OF this the United
States contributed 63,7S1. The agents
of the Canadian government, whose
advertisement appears elsewhere, say
that this number will be largely in.
creased during 1907.

MIX THIS AT HOME.
Valuable Prescription Which Anyone
Can Easily Prepare.

The following simple homemade
mixture is said to readily relieve and
overcome any form of Rheumatism by
forcing the Kidneys to filter from the
blood and system all the uric acid and
poisonous waste matter, relieving at
once such symptoms as backache,
weak kidneys and bladder and blood
diseases.
Try it, as it doesn't cost much to
make, and is said to be absolutely
harmless to the stomach.
Get the following harmless ingredi-
ents from any good pharmacy: Fluid
Extract Dandelion, one-half ounce;
Compound Kargon, one ounce; Com
pound Syrup of Sarsaparilla, three
ounces. Mix by shaking we'll in a bot
tie, and take a teaspoonful after each
meal and again at bedtime.
This simple mixture is said to give
prompt relief, and there are very few
cases of rheumatism and Kidney
troubles it will fail to cure perma.
nently.
These are all harmless, everyday
drugs, and your druggist should keep
them in the prescription department;
if not, have him order them from the
wholesale drug houses for you, rather
than fail to use this, if you are at.

Margie Harrison descended to the

of grateful admiration lit up his face.
She beamed upon him like a star from
the depths of the clouds.

nent Practically no ice was found
south of the Long Bridge, and a practical
BILE channel extends from the Long Bridge
to the Aqueduct Bridge as the result of
the preliminary work Of the Firefghter

Mr.. mcfarland said he is satisfied that
the Firefghter, with the assistance OF the

equipped with a steel ice PROV, can break
the ice so as to permit its drifting
between the piers Of the bridges unless
