AN HONEST MAN WAS SAVED BY
A PHILANTHROPiST.

Mr. T. A. Morgan, of Hammond, Ind.
had suffered for years with his stom-
ach and kidneys, and while the great
Root Juice scientist was proving the
merits of the Root Juice remedy to the
people of northern Indiana, Mr.. Nor
gan purchased six bottles of the Juice
and while it was being wrapped up, he
said: IF Root Juice cures me | will
make the scientist a present of one
hundred dollars" A short while ago
Mr.. Morgan called on the scientist and
said that he could eat anything with
out the slightest inconvenience and
that his kidney trouble was entirely
cured He wanted the scientist to take
the one hundred dollars, but ID was re-
fused. However, it was agreed to give
the money to an orphan asylum. So
Root Juice is not only curing the sick,
but in this instance will be the indi-
rect means of caring for some dead
mothers child. Root Juice has proved
it's wonderful merits to many people of
Richmond. From the very start it
seems to soothe and heal the Innings of
the stomach and bowels and strength
en- the liver and kidneys, thereby Civ
ing nature chance to. in her own
way, throw off the impurities of the
blood. For sale by A. G.. Luken, 81

claimed for it.

THINKING ALOUD.
A Ruse Which Reused Lord Dudley
and Formed q Friendship.


and Formed q Friendship.
One Of the earls Of Dudley, who was
addicted to the practice OF thinking
aloud, found himself in a very awk-
ward predicament on a certain occa-
sion. He was to spend the evening at
the house Of friend and ordered his
carriage early, as he had a long drive
back TO his own home.
When the hour arrived the carriage
was not forthcoming. Seeing that
Lord Dudley was considerably annoy
ed by the delay. one Of the guests.
whose way home ward lay past his
lordships house. politely offered him q
seat in his carriage. The gentleman
was almost a stranger to Lord Dud-
ley, but the offer was accepted.
The drive did not prove very socia-
BILE one. Lord Dudley took his seat
and Immediately relapsed into silence,
his thoughts apparently engrossed by
some unpleasant subject. Presently he
began to speak In low but distinctly
audible tone of voice, and his compan-
ion, to his establishment, heard him
say:
I'm very sorry I accepted his offer.
I don't know the man. 1t was civil
certainly, but the worst Is suppose
l must ask him to dinner"
Silence followed this bit OF audible
thinking His lordship was unaware
that he had betrayed his thoughts and
was probably still meditnting upon
the same unpleasant subject when the
voice Of his companion broke the still-
ness.
Apparently this stranger was afllict-
ed with the same malady from which
his lordship suffered. for he exactly
initiated Lord Dudry's tone a. he
said:
Perhaps he'll think I did It TO mako
his acquaintance. Why, I would have
done the same to any farmer on his
estate. / hope he won't ask me to din
ner, for / shan't accept his invitation"
Lord Dudlcy's abstraction was all
gone. He listened to the others words,
Immediately comprehending the joke
against himself, and frankly offered
his hand TO his companion, making
many apologies for his involuntary
rudeness.
The stranger proved magnanfmoU,
and from that night the two became
fast friends.

in the papers, in which stated he had
been grossly insulted. that in the South
the way those things are adjusted is by
the duel route.
Dolliver read the story in the news
paper and met Tillman in the lobby OF
hotel. A stormy interview was the
result, and it was only through the ef-
forts of bystanders that serious trou
BILE was averted.
Dolliver said he was not fighting du-
els and Tillman branded him as cow
ard for not being able to back up his
statements, and he declared that the
time would come when he would square
things with the gentleman from Iowa.
Dolliver left town in the afternoon.
He was followed to the station by an
angry mob of about 800, and the police
had difficulty in getting him through
the mob in the train shed.

company to attract attention is the
daily parade of the "ayseed'' band.

Weighing the Soul.

From Boston, the chief center of the
cult which affirms that matter is moth :
ing, and, by inference, has no weight
comes the announcement that some
wise scientists who can believe only
what they can see with their eye-balls,
have made the discovery that the soul
has specific weight, which varies, ac-
cording to the individual, from half an
ounce to an ounce. Thus Boston
svuares herself by giving to the world
two absurdities which just about offset
each other.
The Outlook suggests that possibly
the weight of the soul may be found to
vary in different localities, that the
average weight in Chicago, for in
stance, may be greater than that in
Boston. This is a little hard on Bos-
ton. Not to be self righteous, we can
not help wondering how some of our
neighboring towns like Remove, Port
Allegany or st. Marys, would stand a
soul weighing test. This new science
is still in its infancy but some day
it may be so far developed as to
permit the application of the test to
corporations as we'll as to individuals.
1t has long been a popular assumption
that while there is such d thing as a
corporation sole," there is no such a
thing as corporation soul" Aspec-
tally constructed weighing machine
might be able In demonstrate the truth
or falsity of this assumption. In some
instances the scales of justice might be
successfully used in this kind of weigh.
ing test.
To return to the individual, soul
weighing test might show in some
cases that the presence or absence of
the soul does not cause the beam of the
of hairs breadth. The writer of
spring verse and the man who makes
''steadfast, rhyme with breakfast" the
man who would steal sheep, the lazy
scamp who makes his family support
him, and the gambler who shears the
rustic lamb; will all be found to have
souls that are unappreciable by the
finest tests. But to make up for the
default of these, there are many others.
some of whom wear grimy overalls
and others who stand over kneading
boards and are deft with the dish
towel, whose souls, if they are as heavy
as they are large, will weigh, not ounces,
but pounds.

Wake Up Citizen

EDITOR PRESS
Since we have just experienced an
other of those dreadful disasters
of which Emporium has suffered sew
eral times before, | would like to ask
the question, as the most of our peo
pie are living in constant dread of
still greater calamity, why dynamite is
allowed to be stored in large quantities
within half mile, or possibly less of
our borough limits. We quite fre-
quently read oflarge powder magazines
being blown up and without any ex
planation as to the cause. Why might
not just such a thing happen in our
community in which the loss of life
would no doubt be appalling and the
damage to property would most likely
ruin large number of our citizens,
who by hard work and strict economy
have accumulated a home or property
in which they look for support in their
declining years. With this large
magazine but a short distance from
our town and no protection whatever,
what would happen in case of an ex-
plosion no one can tell. Our coun-
Gil should do something in this matter
as the safety of our citizens is very
much encroached upon and some act
tion should be taken at once, before it
may be too late. -

A Nibbler.

A nibbler is a man who enters the
grocery store, runs his fingers into a
sugar barrel and laps up couple of
ounces; eats a handful of nuts, then
goes over to the cheese case and cuts
off slice for taste; then as a matter
of course, must have few crackers
and perhaps before he has made up
his mind SO purchase twenty five cents
worth of something he has eaten the
profits on 50 worth of groceries. To
end it all up after getting trusted for
the purchase on which the merchant
realizes profit of about five cents, he
leaves the store munching couple
of apples, and it may be the collection
of the debt costs the merchant almost
or quite it's value. Did you ever see
an illustration of this?
